Abstract
A process for making an ultra-conformal microprint by ultra-conformal microprint transferring includes: disposing a transfer moiety arranged in a microstructure on a transfer substrate; disposing a glassy transfer layer on the transfer moiety; forming a glassy composite; removing the glassy composite from the transfer substrate while maintaining the microstructure of the transfer moiety in the glassy transfer layer; disposing the glassy composite on a microprint substrate; ultra-conformally covering the microprint substrate with the glassy composite by heating the glassy composite so that it flows while maintaining the microstructure of the transfer moiety in the glassy transfer layer so that the microstructure is disposed on the microprint substrate; and removing the glassy transfer layer while leaving the transfer moiety disposed in the microstructure on the microprint substrate to form the ultra-conformal microprint including the transfer moiety arranged in the microstructure on the microprint substrate.
