title: Facile fabrication of metallic nanostructures by tunable cracking and transfer printing.
abstract: You crack me up: A topographically patterned PDMS stamp was coated with thin metal film and swelled under organic vapor to induce the tunable cracking of the brittle film into metallic nanostructures (see SEM images, scale bars 1 μm). UV/Vis spectra, OLED efficiency, and SERS spectra demonstrate the fine controllability of the metallic nanostructures, the well-ordered and highly regulable surface plasmons, and the facile fabrication process.
