Bioinspired antireflective flexible films with optimized mechanical resistance fabricated by roll to roll thermal nanoimprint

Abstract This work describes the fabrication process of moth eye antireflective poly (methyl methacrylate) transparent films via roll to roll thermal nanoimprint lithography. The process parameters are investigated and adjusted in order to obtain from a single moth-eye structured mold, a range of an...
