Thermal step and stamp nanoimprint lithography (SSIL) offers an alternative to fabricate transparent polymer stamps for UV-imprinting. The fabrication process does not require any other subsequent steps, e.g. dry etching or anti adhesive coating.In this work, we have manufactured UV-stamp by combining patterns of two different silicon masters. The patterns of the silicon masters were transferred into resin coated quartz plate by sequential imprinting. The first master consisted gratings with 50 nm features and the second master consisted dot arrays of 350 nm diameter features. The novel idea is the ability to create a large UV-stamp using a combination of small masters. Thus fabricated UV-stamps were used for demonstrating step and repeat UV-imprinting. The quality of the UV-stamps and imprints were analyzed by AFM. High fidelity patterns were achieved in respect to patterns in the original silicon master. 相似文献

The separation of masters with 3D undercut structures from thin spin-coated layers of PDMS (Sylgard 184) on Si was investigated. In order to identify typical failure types and to figure out potential limitations imposed by the material, masters with different undercut widths were prepared. Imprint was chosen as the replication technique, where only thin base layers remain on the substrate below the 3D undercut structures. Two typical failure types were observed during separation, neck failure and base layer failure. It was found that surface quality of the master is a major impact factor. Small defects in the surface of the PDMS induced by the master result in large area tear-off of the undercut replica during separation. Defect-free masters could be successfully imprinted and separated with base layer thicknesses down to about 1 μm for undercut widths of up to 8 μm. 相似文献

Antireflection (AR) nanostructures are fabricated on a glass substrate using hybrid nano-patterning lithography (H-NPL) consisting of nanosphere lithography (NSL) and UV-nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL). The shape and diameter of the AR nanostructures were controlled by fabricating Si masters with different RIE conditions. The shapes of the AR nanostructures were a pillar-type and a corn-type. The diameters of the AR nanostructures were about 350 and 250 nm, respectively. AR nanostructures were successfully nanoimprinted on glass in accordance with Si master prepared by NSL. The pillar-type AR nanostructure with diameter of 350 nm exhibited the transmittance of over 98% in the wavelength range from 1100 to 2200 nm. From the results, the fabricated AR nanostructures demonstrate the possibility to improve the efficiency of optoelectronic devices such as a photo-detector and an IR-LED. 相似文献

We present the first results of microstructure replica with re-usable masters in poly vinyl alcohol (PVA). Microneedles of heights ranging from 500 to 1100 μm were fabricated through double-exposure deep X-ray lithography (DXRL) process and successfully replicated. A single PVA master was used as a template to successfully replicate up to 10 PMMA microneedle arrays, suggesting that this method might be a possible alternative to PDMS processes. A preliminary characterization of the relationship between the surface roughness of the substrates and the force required for demoulding was also performed. 相似文献

A combination of different materials and processes was used to create high aspect ratio nanostructures on 3D surfaces. The high aspect ratio structures were formed on thermoplastic foils using UV-Nanoimprintlithography (UV-NIL) with a poly (dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) stamp which was fabricated by soft lithography. An epoxy mixture with a higher glass transition temperature than the thermoplastic foil was used as a resist for UV-NIL. The hydrophobicity of structured substrates was characterized by the surface contact angle. Substrates with an additional chemical treatment were also produced and characterized. Results of contact angle measurement showed that superhydrophobic surface properties can be obtained with structured and chemically treated samples. The foils were further used as a substrate in a thermoforming process to transfer the structures into a microchannel. Using this process, 3D structured foils can be fabricated with high accuracy. The foils were used as a master structure for a replica molding process which allowed the fabrication of 3D structured polymer parts. With the presented method, microchannels with superhydrophobic surface properties can be fabricated. 相似文献

The fabrication of microlenses is of great interest for several applications in the field of optics like wafer level cameras, homogenization of light, and coupling of light into glass fibers. Especially for low-cost optical products, microlenses have to be fabricated with a high throughput at an adequate quality. One way to fulfil these requirements is the patterning of microlenses by UV imprint lithography (UV-IL). Within this work, microlenses were replicated into the UV curing material PAK-01 by step and stamp UV-IL on silicon substrates with a diameter of 150 mm. The resulting substrates were used as masters to cast PDMS templates. These PDMS templates can be used for high throughput full wafer UV-IL. Additionally, quartz substrates with a diameter of 100 mm were patterned which could be directly used as so called “optowafers”. Master and patterned microlenses were inspected by scanning electron microscopy and with a white light profilometer. The results clearly demonstrate the excellent quality of the replication process and the capability of UV-IL to pattern microlenses on full wafer level for high throughput applications. 相似文献

A simple method to fabricate one-dimensional(1-D) and two-dimensional(2-D) ordered micro- and nano-scale patterns is developed based on the original masters from optical discs, using nanoimprint technology and soft stamps. Polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) was used to replicate the negative image of the 1-D grating pattern on the masters of CD-R, DVD-R and BD-R optical discs, respectively, and then the 1-D pattern on one of the PDMS stamps was transferred to a blank polycarbonate(PC) substrate by nanoimprint. The 2-D ordered patterns were fabricated by the second imprinting using another PDMS stamp. Different 2-D periodic patterns were obtained depending on the PDMS stamps and the angle between the two times of imprints. This method may provide a way for the fabrication of complex 2-D patterns using simple 1-D masters. 相似文献

Patterning techniques of Al micro/nano-structures become more and more critical as optical components and microelectronic devices continue to be scaled down. In this work, we fabricated gap-filled Al lines in SiO2/Si masters by using the direct thermal imprint of molten Al. As a result, gap-filled Al lines with width ranging from 0.25 to 20 μm and depth ranging from 6 to 127 μm could be achieved without any further processing step such as CVD and PVD. The process studied here has shown the possibility to extend trench filling capability to 0.25 μm structures with 24:1 aspect ratio, which are difficult to be obtained by other conventional Al metallization methods. 相似文献

Hexagonally arrayed structures of colloidal crystals with uniform surface are a good candidate for master molds to be used in soft lithography. Here, the fabrication of periodically arrayed nanostructures using poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) molds based on three‐dimensionally (3D) ordered colloidal crystals is reported. A robust, high‐quality 3D colloidal‐crystal master molds is prepared using the colloidal suspension containing a water‐soluble polymer. The surface patterns of the 3D colloidal crystals can then be transferred onto a polymer film via soft lithography, by means of the replication of the surface pattern with PDMS. Various hexagonally arrayed nanostructure patterns can be fabricated, including close‐packed and non‐close‐packed 2D arrays and honeycomb structures by the structural modification of the 3D colloidal‐crystal templates. The replicated hexagonally arrayed structures can also be used as templates for producing colloidal crystals with 2D superlattices. 相似文献

In this work, a new method was developed to increase the stiffness of Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) masters using oxide-coated silicon plates, aimed at reducing the residual and deflecting deformations of the PDMS masters for proper pattern transfer. Using this method, these two types of deformations in the reinforced PDMS master have been reduced. 相似文献

Administration of protein and DNA biotherapeutics is limited by the need for hypodermic injection. Use of micron-scale needles to deliver drugs in a minimally invasive manner provides an attractive alternative, but application of this approach is limited by the need for suitable microneedle designs and fabrication methods. To address this need, this paper presents a conical polymer microneedle design that is fabricated using a novel integrated lens technique and analyzed for its ability to insert into the skin without mechanical failure. Microneedle master structures were fabricated using microlenses etched into a glass substrate that focused light through SU-8 negative epoxy resist to produce sharply tapered structures. Microneedle replicates were fabricated out of biodegradable polymers by micromolding. Because microneedle mechanical properties are critical to their insertion into the skin, we theoretically modeled two failure modes (axial mode and transverse mode), and analytical models were compared with measured data showing general agreement. Guided by this analysis, polymer microneedles were designed and demonstrated to insert to different depths into porcine skin in vitro. "Long" polymer microneedles were also demonstrated in human subjects to insert deeply without failure. 相似文献

Large-core (42 /spl times/43 /spl mu/m) 1/spl times/16 optical power splitters in polymers have been fabricated. Y-branch waveguide structures with and without offsets in the arc-bending regions were designed by the beam propagation method software and molded by a silicon-mold master using a hot-embossing process. The optical power splitters were produced by epoxy core filling and ultraviolet curing processes. The average insertion losses at a wavelength of 850 nm were measured to be 19.8 dB with offset and 17.1 dB without offset, respectively. The maximum uniformities were 3.3 dB with offset and 3.9 dB without offset, respectively. 相似文献
