Abstract: A super-resolution system for nano-patterning is disclosed, comprising an exposure head that enables a super-resolution patterning exposures. The super-resolution exposures are carried out using electromagnetic radiation and plasmonic structures, and in some embodiments, plasmonic structures having specially designed super-resolution apertures, of which the “bow-tie” and “C-aperture” are examples. These apertures create small but bright images in the near-field transmission pattern. A writing head comprising one or more of these apertures is held in close proximity to a medium for patterning. In some embodiments, a data processing system is provided to re-interpret the data to be patterned into a set of modulation signals used to drive the multiple individual channels and multiple exposures, and a detection means is provided to verify the data as written.

Abstract: A caramel includes water, glycerol, fat, and about 10% by weight or greater of at least one protein source including at least one protein. A method of forming a caramel includes combining water, glycerol, fat, and about 10% by weight or greater of at least one protein source including at least one protein to form a caramel composition. The method also includes hydrating the protein at a hydrating temperature less than a denaturation temperature of the protein to achieve the caramel having a predetermined water activity without denaturing the protein. The caramel includes about 25% by weight or greater of the protein source, and the protein is not in a denatured state in the caramel. A comestible product includes a protein core layer and a layer of a slab-able caramel adhering to the protein core layer.
