20. Note that close packing is not required for the present application, as long as the beads are sufficiently close to each other to prevent sagging of the elastomeric stamp in the void areas (see, ref 2b).

23. The distance over which the molecules traveled on the metal surface was directly proportional to the square root of the contact time (t). A similar relationship was found for hexadecanethiol that was printed on Au under water (see, ref 1c).
