A high-resolution shadow mask, or called a nanostencil was fabricated for high resolution lithography. This high-resolution shadowmask was fabricated by a combination or MEMS processes and focused ion beam (FIB) milling. 500 nm thick and $2{\times}2mm$ large membranes wore made on a silicon wafer by micro-fabrication processes of LPCVD, photolithography, ICP etching and bulk silicon etching. A subsequent FIB milling enabled local membrane thinning and aperture making into the thinned silicon nitride membrane. Due to the high resolution of the FIB milling process, nanoscale apertures down to 70 nm could be made into the membrane. By local deposition through the apertures of nanostencil, nanoscale patterns down to 70 nm could be achieved.

Fabrication of a high-resolution shadow mask, or called nanostencil, is presented. This high-resolution shadowmask is fabricated by a combination of MEMS processes and focused ion beam (FIB) milling. 500 nm thick and 2x2 mm large membranes are made on a silicon wafer by micro-fabrication processes of LPCVD, photolithography, ICP etching and bulk silicon etching. Subsequent FIB milling enabled local membrane thinning and aperture making into the thinned silicon nitride membrane. Due to high resolution of FIB milling process, nanoscale apertures down to 70 nm could be made into the membrane.

A high-resolution shadow mask, a nanostencil, is widely used for high resolution lithography. This high-resolution shadowmask is often fabricated by a combination of MEMS processes and focused ion beam (FIB) milling. In this study, FIB milling on 500-nm-thin SiN membrane was tested and characterized. 500 nm thick and $2{\times}2$ mm large membranes were made on a silicon wafer by micro-fabrication processes of LPCVD, photolithography, ICP etching and bulk silicon etching. A subsequent FIB milling enabled local membrane thinning and aperture making into the thinned silicon nitride membrane. Due to the high resolution of the FIB milling process, nanoscale apertures down to 60 nm could be made into the membrane. The nanostencil could be used for nanoscale patterning by local deposition through the apertures.

FIB (Focused ion Beam) milling on a 500-nm-thick silicon nitride membrane was studied in order to fabricate a high-resolution shadow mask, or called a nanostencil. The silicon nitride membrane was fabricated by MEMS processes of LPCVD, photolithography, ICP etching and bulk silicon etching. The apertures made by FIB milling and normal photolithography were compared. The square metal pattern deposited through FIB milled shadow mask showed 6 times smaller comer radius than the case of photolithography. The results show high resolution patterning could be achieved by local deposition through FIB milled shadow-mask.

서브 마이크론 크기의 셀을 제조하기 위하여 종래의 방식인 전체시료구조를 증착한 후 이온밀링 방식으로 제조하는 대신에 Pt 스텐실 마스크 공정과 e-beam 리소 및 습식 식각 공정을 이용하여 배치형 submicron 셀을 lift-off 방식으로 제조하였다. $500nm{\times}500 nm,\;200nm{\times}300 nm$ 크기에 $CoFe(30 {\AA})/Cu(100{\AA})/CoFe(120{\AA}$) 3층 구조를 셀내에 증착하고 수직전류를 인가하여 자기저항 특성을 조사하였다. 자기저항 특성은 두 자성층의 보자력 차이를 이용하여 스핀의 반평형 구조를 유도하여 슈도 스핀밸브이며 각 셀의 크기에서 1.1, $0.8{\%}$의 자기저항비가 얻어졌다. 또한 전류인가에 따른 저항변화로부터 스핀전달 효과에 따른 스위칭 변화가 일어남을 확인하였으며, 이 구조에서 저항의 변화로부터 측정된 임계전류밀도는 약 $7.65{\times}10^{7}A/cm^2$였다.
