On-demand Drawing of High Aspect-ratio, Microsphere-tipped Elastomeric Micropillars

Abstract

We demonstrate on-demand fabrication of high aspect-ratio, microsphere-tipped elastomeric micropillars on various structures with uncommon geometries. A fiber optic contact sensor is realized by integrating a micropillar onto the end facet of an optical fiber.
