Effect of sputtering power on friction coefficient and surface energy of co-sputtered titanium and molybdenum disulfide coatings and its performance in micro hot-embossing

Si micromolds are common for fabrication of polymer-based microfluidic devices by hot-embossing because of the well established fabrication methods for Si, e.g., deep reactive ion etching, for favorable surface finish and accuracy. The problems with low yield, poor reproducibility, premature failure...
