Fig. 17 Top Schematic of DPN process bottom Sequence of LFM force images (acquired in air friction forces (a.u.) increase from dark to bright contrast) of arrays of lines with mean widths ( standard deviation) of 50 20 nm and 70 10 nm produced by DPN of G4 PAMAM dendrimers on NHS-CIO SAMs on granular gold. The contrast in the LFM scans is reversed compared to the microcontact-printed patterns, which were scanned with a clean Si3N4 tip. As also observed in an independent study [92], the remaining ink on the AFM tip used for DPN alters the relative magnitude of the friction forces in this situation.
