26. Grayscale images of 1 mm-wide stripes, of 5 different linear gray levels in a stair-step pattern, were drawn using Freehand 8. They were printed on a 92-96 brightness office paper at the highest resolution (ProRes 212 lpi) of an HP LaserJet 4200n printer. Photos were taken of the printout with an SLR camera, using a 70 mm lens, on a 35 mm KodakT-Max 100 B/W film using side illumination from two 50 W halogen lamps. The 8.5 × 11″ letter images were fully fit into the frame of the 22 × 29 mm negative image resulting in a 9.6× reduction in size. The film was developed at a local photographic store (Triangle Camera) and the negatives were used as photolithographic masks directly in contact with the gels.
27. Note that the heights of the features decrease slightly with t for irradiation times longer than ∼1 min. This can be attributed to the diffusion of generated Cr(III) ions from the irradiated into the masked regions, where they crosslink the "background" gel and cause it to swell.

31. 3+ ions to gelatin gives rise to electrostatic repulsions and causes extension of the polymer's chains. For more information on these effects, please see refs 32 and 33.

40. The pattern was replicated into h-PDMS as follows: a mixture of 3.4 g of VDT-731, 25μL of Pt-divinyltetramethylsiloxane catalyst (Gelest, SIP 6831.1), and 1 drop of modulator (2,4,6,8-tetramethyltetravinyl-cyclotetrasiloxane, Aldrich; 87927) added using a 19 gauge needle was degassed under vacuum for 1 min, and then 1g of trimethylsiloxy-terminated methylhydrosiloxanedimethylsiloxane copolymers (Gelest, HMS-301) was added. The mixture was immediately poured on the patterned surface, spincoated (40s, 1000 rpm, then 15 min 500 rpm) and covered with a 3-4 mm layer of PDMS. The polymer was dried in the dark for 48 h at room temperature and gently peeled off.
