Fig. 5

a R2R-NIL system using a wrapped flexible mold around the roller. b, c The measured contact angle on the initial flexible mold and their replicated films fabricated using a multiple-stitched flexible mold (n = 3 in each area). d The wetting and pinning property of sliding droplets in the seam areas. e The light focusing characteristic of the replicated MLA films in the seam areas. Scale bar: 100 µm.
