Just the tip of the iceberg? The Nanofountain Probe (NFP) has been developed to produce molecular patterning at the sub‐100 nm scale. In conjunction with an atomic force microscope probe, the volcano‐shaped tip (shown in the SEM image) ensures controlled ink delivery from an on‐chip reservoir to provide high‐resolution patterning for manifold potential applications.
