This document discusses the fabrication and assembly of complex shaped microparticles for self-assembly applications. It summarizes that (1) photolithography is used to fabricate a variety of shapes of SU-8 microparticles including squares, cylinders, and hexagons, (2) these particles can be modified with fluorescence or metal coatings, and (3) initial assembly experiments using evaporation and liquid-liquid interfaces have shown promise, but a liquid-liquid interface method is proposed to better control the assembly of the complex shaped particles.
