    • The model accurately predicted accumulation time and solidification rate based on concentration.

    Conclusions:

    • The developed solution delivery platform offers a scalable and precise method for nanoscale material deposition.
    • The theoretical model provides a robust understanding of solute transfer dynamics in this system.
    • This technique is suitable for fabricating advanced micro- and nanostructures.
