Abstract: A method of forming a micro-structure involves forming a multi-layered structure including i) an oxidizable material layer on a substrate and ii) another oxidizable material layer on the oxidizable material layer. The oxidizable material layer is formed of an oxidizable material having an expansion coefficient, during oxidation, that is more than 1. The method further involves forming a template, including a plurality of pores, from the other oxidizable material layer, and growing a nano-pillar inside each pore. The nano-pillar has a predefined length that terminates at an end. A portion of the template is selectively removed to form a substantially even plane that is oriented in a position opposed to the substrate. A material is deposited on at least a portion of the plane to form a film layer thereon, and the remaining portion of the template is selectively removed to expose the nano-pillars.

Abstract: A film that contains a core layer positioned adjacent to an outer layer is provided. The core layer contains a relatively high percentage of thermoplastic biopolymers that are both biodegradable and renewable. Despite being biodegradable and renewable, many biopolymers tend to be relatively stiff in nature. The present inventors have discovered, however, that through selective control over the components in the core and outer layers, a film can be readily formed having good mechanical properties. Among other things, this is accomplished by blending the biopolymer in the core layer with a polyolefin. A polyolefin is also employed in the outer layer. In addition to providing functionality to the film (e.g., heat sealing, printing, etc.), the polyolefin-containing outer layer also helps counteract the stiffness of the biopolymer in the core layer, and helps improve processability, stiffness, and ductility.
