Claims48
A method of applying an elongated molecule to a surface, comprising:
- controllably flowing a solution containing an elongated molecule over the first substrate in a manner that promotes stretching of the elongated molecule from a defined physical feature along the first substrate;
- and
- transferring the stretched elongated molecule to a second substrate,
- wherein the elongated molecule is selected from the group consisting of polymers, nanotubes, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and functionalized forms of any of the above.
