✦ Synopsis


A maskless method for patterning substrates using surface relief structures on azobenzene‐functionalized polymer is demonstrated. Surface relief structures are inscribed on a polymer film spin‐coated on an indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate by exposure to an interference pattern. Etching with oxygen plasma followed by a zinc‐powder‐catalyzed liquid etchant yields a periodically patterned ITO substrate (see Figure).
