나노임프린트 관련되어 전 세계적으로 지금까지 4개회사가 장비 및 공정기술 개발을 하고 있으나 대부분 수년 전에 창업한 회사이며, 4개의 나노임프린트 장비 관련 회사는 미국의 Nanonex, 오스트리아의 EVG사, 미국의 Molecular Imprint Inc. (MII),스웨덴이 Obducat이다. 개발된 장비의 대부분은 수작업이 필요한 연구용 장비로 현재 공정 기술개발을 위해 활용되고 있으며, MI사 장비가 최초로 양산 적용을 목표로 개발하여 국내에도 도입 되어있다. 일본에서는 아직 장비 개발이 시도된 바 없으며 현재 관련 공정 기술개발을 하고 있다.(중략)

Photonic crystals, periodic structure with a high refractive index contrast modulation, have recently become very interesting platform for the manipulation of light. The existence of a photonic bandgap, a frequency range in which the propagation of light is prevented in all directions, makes photonic crystal very useful in application where the spatial localization of light is required, for example waveguide, beam splitter, and cavity. However, the fabrication of 3 dimensional photonic crystals is still difficult process. A concept that has recently attracted a lot of attention is a planar photonic crystal based on a dielectric membrane, suspended in the air and perforated with two dimensional lattice of hole. The fabrication of Si master with pillar structure using hot embossing process is investigated for two dimensional, low-index-contrast photonic crystal waveguide. From our research we show that the multiple stamp copy process proved to be feasible and useful.

The existence of a photonic bandgap, a frequency range in which propagation of light is prevented in all direction, makes photonic crystal very useful in application where spatial localization of light is required for waveguide, beam splitter, and cavity. But fabrication of 3 dimensional photonic crystal is still difficult process. a concept that has recently attracted a lot of attention is a planar photonic crystal based on a dielectric membrane, suspended in the air, and perforated with 2 dimensional lattice of hole. We show that the polymer slabs suspended in air with triangular lattice of air hole can exhibit the in-plane photonic bandgap for TE-like modes. The fabrication of Si master with pillar structure using hot embossing process was investigated for 2 dimensional low-index-contrast photonic crystal waveguide.
