Do you have any other suggestions that can help me? Can you please send that reference? I would like to see it. Here are some UV curable epoxy papers (and related- they are not all epoxies) that I have found- http://heybryan.org/books/papers/A%20photo-polymerization%20resist%20for%20UV%20 nanoimprint%20lithography%20-%20PMMA%20-%20MMA.pdf http://heybryan.org/books/papers/microfluidics/High%20density%20nanostructure%20 transfer%20in%20soft%20molding%20using%20polyurethane%20acrylate%20molds%20and%2 0polyelectrolyte%20multilayers%20-%20UV%20curing%20-%20HH%20Lee.pdf http://heybryan.org/books/papers/microfluidics/Maskless%20photolithography%20usi ng%20UV%20LEDs.pdf http://heybryan.org/books/papers/microfluidics/Micropatterning%20of%20biomedical %20polymer%20surfaces%20by%20novel%20UV%20polymerization%20techniques.pdf PMMA might be a candidate, but I have not looked at the absorption spectra. Someone once told me that UV as well as blue wavelengths might be able to do lithography/masked curing of structures. - Bryan http://heybryan.org/ 1 512 203 0507
