Design of the bulk PNIPAAm nanopore-patterned surface. (A) Diagram showing the three-step nanoreplication process consisting of aluminum anodizing, nickel nanoelectroforming, and UV nanoimprinting. (B) SEM images (scale bar: 500 nm) of PNIPAAm FL and NPt80 created in each step of the nanoreplication process. (C) The mechanical characterization; and (D) replicable pattern resolution of the PNIPAAm NPt substrates compared to various PNIPAAm hydrogels in different forms.
