Fabrication of multi-dimensional colloidal crystals on raised polymer substrate has been achieved by reversal nanoimprint technique. The combine effects of the feature size of the mold, particle diameter and imprinting steps control ordering of the colloidal particles. It is shown that using ‘Reversal nanoimprint lithography’, 3D colloidal particles can be selectively patterned on soft (polymer) substrates. Reversal nanoimprint lithography offers a relatively easy, fast and versatile method for patterning of colloidal particles. 相似文献

A nonlithographic process is demonstrated for patterning Al, Cr, Cu, Ni, Ti, and W thin films, which are widely used in microelectronic and display fabrication. A projection photoablation process using 248-nm-deep ultraviolet radiation from a KrF excimer laser was used to pattern a polyimide film coated on a SiN layer deposited on glass. The photoablation-patterned polyimide film was used as a sacrificial layer in a lift-off patterning process for the metal films, which resulted in clean metal patterns with fine line-edge definition being fabricated after lift-off. This process provides a simpler and more economical patterning technique compared to conventional lithography methods, eliminating the developing and etching steps. 相似文献

A spacer patterning technology for nanoscale CMOS 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A spacer patterning technology using a sacrificial layer and a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) spacer layer has been developed, and is demonstrated to achieve sub-7 nm structures with conventional dry etching. The minimum-sized features are defined not by the photolithography but by the CVD film thickness. Therefore, this technology yields critical dimension (CD) variations of minimum-sized features much smaller than that achieved by optical or e-beam lithography. In addition, it also provides a doubling of device density for a given lithography pitch. This method is used to pattern silicon fins for double-gate metal-oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) (FinFETs) and gate electrode structures for ultrathin body MOSFETs.

We report on a micro-fabrication method based on micro-aspiration assisted lithography (MAAL). Unlike nanoimprint lithography where a mould is pressed into a resist layer spin coated on a substrate, MAAL uses aspiration forces to guide the resist material in the mould cavities. By suing this technique, the limit of capillary based lithography techniques has been extended. Double layer PDMS moulds were fabricated using multi-layer soft-lithography in which a micro-aspiration network could be introduced close to the pattern layer of the mould. As a result, high resolution patterning could be obtained with a UV curable resist. We also show the results of patterning of a thin layer of PDMS, nano-particles as well as agar gels. We have also provided a semi-quantitative analysis in order to understand the limitation of different approaches. 相似文献

We describe a comparison of nanofabrication technologies for the fabrication of 2D photonic crystal structures on GaN/InGaN blue LEDs. Such devices exhibit enhanced brightness and the possibility of controlling the angular emission profile of emitted light. This paper describes three nano lithography techniques for patterning photonic crystal structures on the emitting faces of LEDs: direct-write electron beam lithography, hard stamp nanoimprint lithography and soft-stamp nanoimprint lithography with disposable embossing masters. In each case we describe variations on the technique as well as its advantages and disadvantages. Complete process details have been given for all three techniques. In addition, we show how high performance GaN dry etch techniques, coupled with optical process monitoring can transfer resist patterns into underlying GaN material with high fidelity. 相似文献

A new process is presented that combines nanoimprint lithography and soft lithography to assemble metal–bridge–metal crossbar junctions at ambient conditions. High density top and bottom metal electrodes with half‐pitches down to 50 nm are fabricated in a parallel process by means of ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography. The top electrodes are realized on top of a sacrificial layer and are embedded in a polymer matrix. The lifting of the top electrodes by dissolving the sacrificial layer in an aqueous solution results in printable electrode stamps. Crossbar arrays are noninvasively assembled with high yield by printing the top electrode stamps onto bare or modified bottom electrodes. A semiconducting and a quasi metal like conducting type of polymer are incorporated in the cross points to form metal‐polymer‐metal junctions. The electrical characterization of the printed junctions revealed that the functional integrity of the electrically addressed conductive polymers is conserved during the assembling process. These findings suggest that printing of electrodes represents an easy and cost effective route to highly integrated nanoscale metal‐bridge‐metal junctions if imprint lithography is used for electrode fabrication. 相似文献

Novel reproduction technique for nanostructures is newly proposed based on nanoimprint and nanocasting lithography. First, a master nanostructure is replicated using fluorinated polymer by conventional thermal nanoimprint. Then, the master structure is reproduced using the replicated fluorinated polymer by nanocasting lithography. Using the fluorinated polymer as a mold, fine pattern is successfully transferred without releasing failure. Also, low cost reproduction is realized by nanocasting lithography without using special tools and materials. Using the proposed method, reproduction of the anti-reflection structure having 250 nm feature size is successfully demonstrated. 相似文献

Nanoelectrode lithography is a pattern duplication method that combines nanoimprint with an electrochemical reaction. The method can form an oxide pattern directly on a semiconductor or metal. This method can use flat molds with patterns defined by substances with different conductivities, while the conventional nanoimprint technique must use a mold with a relief pattern. In this paper, the mold pattern for the technique is defined with an oxide material on the surface of a conductive substrate. Nanoelectrode lithography itself can be used to form a flat mold by using a conductive mold with a relief pattern, which leaves an oxide pattern via the anodic oxidation of Si. AFM lithography also can utilize an electrochemical reaction in the air to generate an oxide pattern on a conductive substrate, which gives us a flat mold. This paper shows that both types of flat mold can transfer a pattern to a target substrate. These strategies will allow us to realize on-demand mold fabrication, mold modification, and an easy way of obtaining a mold with a finer pattern. 相似文献

Within the past years there has been much effort in developing and improving new techniques for the nanoscale patterning of functional materials used in promising applications like nano(opto)electronics. Here a high‐resolution soft lithography technique—nanomolding in capillaries (NAMIC)—is demonstrated. Composite PDMS stamps with sub‐100 nm features are fabricated by nanoimprint lithography to yield nanomolds for NAMIC. NAMIC is used to pattern different functional materials such as fluorescent dyes, proteins, nanoparticles, thermoplastic polymers, and conductive polymers at the nanometer scale over large areas. These results show that NAMIC is a simple, versatile, low‐cost, and high‐throughput nanopatterning tool. 相似文献

High ordered nano-sphere array patterns on Si substrate were fabricated using nanoimprint lithography. First, using hot embossing method, poly vinyl chloride (PVC) based polymer replica template was duplicated from original high ordered nano-sphere array patterns, which was fabricated by evaporation method. The monolayer transferring condition can be achieved by varying hot embossing pressure. Then, through UV nanoimprint lithography with the replicated polymer template, imprinted patterns, which has high ordered nano-sphere array patterns, was successfully fabricated on Si and flexible PET substrate. 相似文献

This study proposes a new fabrication method for the mold of a sub-micron grating array used in the nanoimprint lithography process. In general, the mold of a sub-micron grating array is fabricated by electron beam lithography (EBL) and reactive ion etching (RIE), and then, nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is used to achieve the required amount of replication. Such a method is expensive and has a low throughput, and the pattern is limited by the original mold. In this paper, we constructed a durable mold of a sub-micron grating array with good adaptability, using a commercial epoxy grating (EG) and a hybrid inorganic/organic sol-gel material combined with nanoimprint lithography and photolithography. Due to its low cost and ease of use, this method is suitable for both laboratory research and mass production without the need for expensive equipment like EBL or RIE. 相似文献

A novel size reduction process using electron beam lithography (EBL) combining with wet etching technique is developed as a possible solution for producing large area and low cost nanopattern stamp for UV-based nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL). In the first step, a microstructure stamp with 1.4 μm periodical pore array and aspect ratio of 1:1 was formed over a 1 inch2 area on a quartz substrate. This process was carried out using common electron beam lithography (EBL) equipment, which was easily available in the modern integrated circuits (IC) semiconductor factory. Afterwards, with a controlled wet etching technique, the pore array was changed into tip patterns with the line width below 100 nm and the period keeping as before. The uniformities and nanopattern accuracies were investigated to identify its possibility as a UV-NIL stamp by AFM and SEM. Finally, as a demonstration, the as obtained stamp was used as a positive stamp to replicate the nanotips into UV-curable resist successfully by a UV-NIL process. The method developed for the mold of nanoimprint lithography would be a simple and low price approach to fabricate large area UV-NIL stamp and the nanotip array structures would be widely used in two dimensional (2D) photonic crystal application. 相似文献

Fabrication of imprint stamp is a key issue of nanoimprint lithography. In this study, we attempt to fabricate the nickel imprint stamp using hot embossing lithography and electroforming processes. As small as 50 nm sized patterns of original silicon master were faithfully transferred to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film. By electroforming on hot embossed PVC film, nickel stamp, which has the same patterns of original silicon master stamp, was successfully fabricated. 相似文献

A new printing technology is described, which is capable of printing metallic electrodes onto organic layers. Electrodes are defined on top of a sacrificial layer by optical or nano-imprint lithography. To increase the stability of the process the electrodes are coated with several backing layers. The metallic features are released from the sacrificial layer by immersion in water and subsequently transferred onto the target substrate. By the use of nano-imprint lithography, feature sizes below 100 nm are achieved. The strengths of the printing technology are high integration density, versatility and reproducibility. 相似文献

Soft lithographic microcontact printing using the residual polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) found in elastomeric PDMS stamps is demonstrated to lead to unstable prints with sub‐micrometer dimensions. The statics and dynamics of the process have been followed with time‐resolved atomic force microscopy, imaging ellipsometry, water contact angle measurement, and optical diffraction. It is proposed that this instability places a fundamental limitation on patterning by macromolecular fluids, which is of general relevance to soft lithography and nanoimprint lithography with low viscosity polymers. 相似文献
