Abstract
A method of transferring nanoparticles to a surface is provided. The method includes rotating a perimeter surface through a colloidal solution such that nanoparticles are captured by binding sites, removing liquid from the captured nanoparticles and rotating a take-up roll such that the captured nanoparticles contact a carrier surface. Moreover, the method includes removing the captured nanoparticles from the perimeter surface and transferring the nanoparticles to the carrier surface with a carrier adhesive material, rotating the carrier surface such that the transferred nanoparticles contact a target substrate, and removing the transferred nanoparticles from the carrier surface and transferring the transferred nanoparticles to the target substrate with a target substrate material.
