Abstract

The transfer of a polymeric micropattern onto a poly(methyl methacrylate) film surface was achieved by the pulsed laser irradiation of Coumarin 6 molecules using self-organized polymer honeycomb templates. The molecular implanted areas were analyzed by fluorescence microscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. It was found that the implantation patterns were affected by the configuration of the sample, the template, and the atmospheric conditions. This technique is applicable to the production of molecular patterns on a centimeter-scale region of polymer film surfaces by a simple process. [DOI: 10.1380/ejssnt.2008.222]
