Hot Embosser

The Hot Embosser at DTU Nanolab is a hydraulic machine, a Collin Press P300 SV. It is located in the basement of building 346 (room 901). The device is typically made using variety of different polymer foils, as well as Graphene. A master pattern, called a shim, is usually fabricated in Si, but can also be fabricated in metals as well as other polymers. It is placed inside the machine between the pressure hot plates, and using a combination of heat and pressure patterned on to the foil. It is possible to replicate both small and large 2½D structures relatively fast.
