TL;DR: In this paper, metal-coated elastomeric stamps are used to establish high-resolution electrical contacts to electroactive organic materials, where the features of relief on the stamps define the geometry and separation of electrically independent electrodes that are formed by uniform, blanket evaporation of a thin metal film onto the stamp.

TL;DR: In this article, a 1296-port MEMS transparent optical crossconnect with 5.1dB insertion loss at 1550 nm is reported, and the worst-case optical crosstalk in a fabric was n38 dB and nominal switching rise/fall times were 5 ms.

TL;DR: Measurements of transmission of infrared radiation through double-layer metallic grating structures and numerical simulations using rigorous coupled wave analysis are performed to explain the strong dependence of the peak transmission on the lateral shift between the metal layers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used electrowetting to tune the contact angle that the liquid forms with the membrane nanofeatures and microfeatures, thus controlling the flow of the liquid through the membrane and tuning the permeability of the entire structure.

TL;DR: In this article, the transport properties of metal?molecule?metal junctions containing a monolayer of conjugated and saturated molecules with characteristic dimensions in the range 30?300?nm are correlated with microscopic topography, stress and chemical bonding at the metal? molecule interfaces.
