ON THE COVER:
Emerging Methods for
Micro- and Nanofabrication. (clockwise from upper left) organic
transistor formed by ink-jet printing (courtesy of Sirringhaus
et al.); double-helical arrangement of microfluidic channels
formed with molded elastomeric elements (courtesy of Love et
al.); pattern of a self-assembled monolayer formed by dip- pen
nanolithography (courtesy of Mirkin et al.); electronic paper
display that uses rubber-stamped plastic active-matrix drive
circuitry (courtesy of Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies);
plastic active-matrix backplane circuit formed by a high-resolution
form of rubber-stamping (courtesy of J.A. Rogers and A. Cossa,
Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies). Background: array of
interconnected microfluidic channels formed with molded elastomeric
elements (courtesy of Love et al.). See the technical theme that
begins on p. 506.
