Abstract

See full text

A three-dimensional micro-structure has a plurality of adjacent micro-columns which are arranged at a distance from each other and essentially parallel in relation to the respective longitudinal extension. The micro-columns are made of at least one micro-column material having respectively an aspect ratio in the region of 20-1000 and respectively a micro-column diameter in the region of 0.1 μm-200 μm. A micro-column intermediate chamber is arranged between adjacent micro-columns having a micro-column distance selected from between the adjacent micro-columns in the region of 1 μm-100 μm. According to a method for producing the three-dimensional micro-structures: a) a template is provided with template material, b) the micro-column material is arranged in the column-like cavities, and c) the template is at least partially removed.
