Formation and use of palladium(II)–thiol complexes at the surface of PDMS stamps for the fabrication of high resolution and high density metal patterns using soft-lithography techniques

•New process to synthesis palladium colloids at the surface of PDMS stamps.•These colloids are used for the fabrication of metal patterns by soft-lithography.•Two types of processes have been used: top-down and bottom up.•Fabrication of high resolution with high density metal patterns on silicon and...
