30. Reactive spreading across the surface and through the vapor phase also shrinks the size of the features. This effect, however, is important only in the region near the edges of the features, where the distance between the surface of the stamp and gold is on the order of hundreds of nanometers and cannot account for the transport of thiol into the center of the feature where the distance is ∼2 μm. Moreover, the stamping time in our experiments (∼10 s) is much shorter than that in the experiments where reactive spreading was important. For more discussion, see: Xia, Y.; Whitesides, G. M. J. Am.
