Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of anti-counterfeit products. In particular, the invention is related to a method to produce anti-counterfeiting tags having unique nanofibre patterns. This unique nanofibres pattern is grown randomly at the edge of or underneath a masking means.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of releasing an ensemble of nanofibers from a dielectric substrate as well as to applications of the method. The organic nanofibers are grown on the substrate and can be released by first providing a polar liquid to a surface of the substrate and subsequently supplying energy to the combined system of nanofibers and liquid. The release may preferably be followed by transferring the released nanofibers to another substrate for application of the nanofibers, including alignment and/or structuring of the nanofibers. The applications includes light emitting, guiding and sensing applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of transferring nanofibres from a template substrate (30) to a flexible storage medium (32). The method comprising: a) providing the template substrate (30) supporting nanofibres (31) and the flexible storage medium (32); b) positioning the flexible storage medium (32) so that a first storage area of the flexible storage medium is facing a first support area of the template substrate (30); and c) pressing (36) the first storage area of the flexible storage medium (32) in contact with the first support area of the template substrate (30) and remove the first storage area of the flexible storage medium from contact with the first support area of the template substrate, thereby transferring the nanofibres (31) from the template substrate (30) to the flexible storage medium (32) and thereby providing a loaded flexible storage medium.
