Abstract
Disclosed embodiments provide a method and apparatus for continuous production of micro/nanoscale particles using roll-to-roll manufacturing in combination with electroplating. The roll-to-roll process can move a mechanically flexible reel stock material along rotating elements designed to position the material for various additive, subtractive, and modification processes. In accordance with at least one embodiment, processes applied at various stations may include sputtering, electroplating, and/or etching.
