Abstract

Method and apparatus for forming a two-dimensional assembly of fine particles on a surface. A wall cell is placed in contact with or near the surface of a solid substrate so as to form a closed surface region on the surface of the solid substrate, a liquid containing fine particles is injected onto the closed surface region in the wall cell, and then the liquid is removed at a controlled rate, thereby causing a two-dimensional assembly of fine particles to form on the solid surface.
