Main Methods:

  • Electrohydrodynamic jet printing of poly(2-vinylpyridine) to create functional patterns.
  • pH-controlled assembly of QDs via electrostatic interactions with patterned surfaces.
  • Image analysis and feature matching for pattern verification.

Main Results:

  • Achieved pH-tunable adsorption density and fluorescence of QDs.
  • Demonstrated deterministic patterning of QDs for pH > ≈4.
  • Observed unique pattern disintegration for pH ≤ ≈4, creating stochastic features.
  • Successfully generated addressable security labels with unclonable features.

Conclusions:

  • The developed method allows for effective and tunable patterning of QDs.
  • The approach provides guidelines for addressable assembly of colloidal nanomaterials.
  • The stochastic patterning capability is suitable for advanced anti-counterfeiting applications.
