Joanna Aizenberg, Boaz Pokroy
Versatile high aspect ratio actuatable nanostructured materials through replication: 8,833,430

A method of forming a nanostructured surface, including providing an original nanostructured surface having an array of high aspect ratio structures formed on a planar substrate; forming a negative replica mold of the original nanostructured surface, where the negative replica mold includes a flexible material; deforming the negative replica mold; and using the deformed negative replica mold to form a deformed replica of the original nanostructured surface, where the deforming step is performed at least one of before, during, or after introducing a material for forming the deformed replica into the negative replica mold.
