Abstract
Large-scale particle manipulation with single-particle precision and further flexible patterning into functional structures is of huge potentials in many fields including bio-optoelectronic sensing, colloidal lithography, and wearable devices. However, it is very challenging for the precision manipulation and flexible patterning of particles on complicated curved and functional substrates. In this work, opto-thermal-tension (OTT) mediated precision large-scale particle manipulation and flexible patterning based on soap film are reported. Flexible manipulation and subsequent patterning of particles with single-particle resolution is realized by optothermal regulated surface tension on soap films. Reconfigurable patterning of particle structures with different shapes as well as large-scale ordered structures (up to 2000 particles) with particle sizes spanning two orders of magnitude (0.5–20 µm) is realized using this OTT mediation method. Importantly, due to the high flexibility of soap films, the patterned large-scale particle structures can be non-destructively transferred to curved and rough substrates, including rough iron pipe surface, leaf and skin surface. This OTT mediated method provides a new method for precision large-scale particle manipulation and flexible patterning with high versatility on complicated functional substrates, with great potentials for optoelectronic and biophotonic sensing and wearable device design on different curved and rough functional substrates.
