First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for interfacing a macroscale device with a microscale device, comprising:
- providing a macroscale device;
providing a microscale device;
providing a double-sided tape comprising a backing with a first and second side, each side coated at least partially with an adhesive to thereby generate a first and second adhesive surface, respectively;
adhering the first adhesive surface to a macroscale device surface to be interfaced with a microscale device surface, contacting the microscale device surface to the second adhesive, thereby interfacing the macroscale device with the microscale device.

3. A method for interfacing a macroscale device with a microscale device, comprising:
-
providing a macroscale device;
providing a microscale device;
providing a transfer tape comprising a backing to which an adhesive surface is separably attached and wherein the bond between the adhesive and backing is weaker than a bond to be formed between the adhesive and a macroscale device surface or microscale device surface;
adhering the adhesive surface to the macroscale device surface;
removing the backing; and
contacting the microscale device surface to the adhesive adhered to the macroscale surface;
thereby interfacing the macroscale device with the microscale device. - View Dependent Claims (20)
