Replica molding-based nanopatterning of tribocharge on elastomer with application to electrohydrodynamic nanolithography

Tribocharging, or the buildup of charge on surfaces after they are rubbed together, can play unusual roles in material behavior, yet it is unclear how nanostructuring impacts charge buildup and distribution. Here, authors use replica molding to localize and pattern charges around nanocup rims.
