Abstract
Method for producing arrays of free standing, three dimensional structures on material surfaces by establishing contact with a template, moving the template and the surface in contact relative to one another, inducing an increase in viscosity such that the structures are self-supported, and removing the template, leaving a negative of the template geometry at the tip of the object.
