Abstract:
1. A method for forming a structured organic film (SOF) micro-feature, the method comprising: providing a substrate; discharging at least one droplet toward the substrate by an inkjet method and depositing the at least one droplet on a surface of the substrate, the at least one droplet comprising a reaction mixture comprising a plurality of molecular building blocks; and promoting a change in one or more of the at least one deposited droplets to form a plurality of SOF micro-features, each SOF micro-feature in the plurality of SOF micro-features comprising a plurality of segments including at least a first segment type and a plurality of linkers including at least a first linker type arranged as a covalent organic framework (COF) on the surface of the substrate; wherein the SOP micro-features of the plurality of SOF micro-features are arranged in a pattern on the surface of the substrate, the pattern including an array of protrusions or bumps in which the protrusions or bumps are uniformly positioned across the surface of the substrate.
