The NIL processes have been studied to implement low cost, high throughput and high resolution application. A RNIL(roller NIL) is an alternative approach to flat nanoimprint lithography. RNIL process is necessary to transfer patterns on flexible substrates. Compared with flat NIL, RNIL has the advantages of better uniformity, less pressing force, and the ability to repeat the patterning process continuously on a large substrate. This paper studies the design, construction and verification of a thermal RNIL system. The proposed RNIL system can easily adopt the flat shaped hot plate which is one of the most important technologies for NIL. The NIL system can be used to transfer patterns from a flexible stamp to a flexible substrate, from a flexible stamp to a Si substrate, and from a roller stamp to a flexible substrate, etc. Patterning on flexible substrates is one of the key technologies to produce bendable displays, solar cells and other applications.

Nano size 몰드의 제작은 X-ray lithography 방법을 이용하여 몰드를 제작하고, micro size의 경우 Deep UV lithography 방법을 이용하여 몰드를 제작하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 SLS(Selective Laser Sintering)형 RP(Rapid Prototyping System)을 이용하여 미세구조 몰드를 제작하였으며, 패턴의 깊이는 400 ㎛까지 구현하였다. 제작된 몰드의 강도와 내열성을 높이기 위하여 전해도금을 이용하여 몰드의 표면에 Ni를 300 ㎛생성 시켰다.

Antireflection pattern, moth-eye structure, was fabricated on lens using Ultra Violet nanoimprint lithography and flexible template. Ni template with conical shaped structure was used as a master template to molding. The flexible poly vinyl alcohol template was fabricated by molding. This poly vinyl alcohol template was used as an imprint template of imprint at lens. Using Ultra Violet nanoimprint lithography and poly vinyl alcohol template, polymer based moth-eye structure was formed on lens and its transmittance was increased up to 94% from 92% at 550 nm wavelength.

생산성 향상을 위하여 정렬된 마이크로칼럼을 이용하여 멀티-전자빔 리소그라피 장치를 개발하였다. 마이크로칼럼은 매우 작은 크기를 가지고 있어 병렬구조로 정렬하여 작동시킬 수 있다. Single Column Module(SCM) 구조의 멀티 전자빔 리소그라피 시스템과 전자칼럼을 제작하여 250 eV에서 300 eV 에너지 범위에서의 저에너지 마이크로칼럼 리소그라피를 성공적으로 수행하였다. 전자방출원에서 방출되는 전자빔의 총 전류가 $0.5\;{\mu}A$일 때, 샘플에서의 전류는 >1 nA으로 측정되었으며 리소그라피 패텅닝에서 사용된 working distance은 $\~1\;mm$였다.

The demand of micro electrical mechanical system (MEMS) bio/chemical sensor is rapidly increasing. To prevent the contamination of sensing area, a filtration system is required in on-chip total analyzing MEMS bio/chemical sensor. A nano-filter was mainly applied in some application detecting submicron feature size bio/chemical products such as bacteria, fungi and so on. We suggested a simple nano-filter fabrication process based on replication process. The mother pattern was fabricated by holographic lithography and reactive ion etching process, and the replication process was carried out using polymer mold and UV-imprinting process. Finally the nano-filter is obtained after removing the replicated part of metal deposited replica. In this study, as a practical example of the suggested process, a nano-dot array was replicated to fabricate nano-filter fur bacteria sensor application.

This study describes a method where the match of two different length scales, i.e., the patterns from self-assembled block copolymer (<50 nm) and electron beam writing (>50 nm), allow the nanometer scale pattern mask. The method is based on using block copolymers containing a poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) block, which is subject to be decomposed under an electron beam, as a pattern resist for electron beam lithography. Electron beam on self assembled block copolymer thin film selectively etches PMMA microdomains, giving rise to a polymeric nano-pattern mask on which subsequent evaporation of chromium produces the arrays of Cr nanoparticles followed by lifting off the mask. Furthermore, electron beam lithography was performed on the micropatterned block copolymer film fabricated by micro-imprinting, leading to a hierarchical self assembled pattern where a broad range of length scales was effectively assembled, ranging from several tens of nanometers, through submicrons, to a few microns.

Next generation lithography technologies, such as EBL(Electron Beam Lithography), X-ray lithography, SPL(Scanning Probe Lithography), have been studied widely for getting over line width limitation of photolithography. Among the next generation lithography technologies, SPL has been highlighted because of its high resolution advantage. But is also has problem which are slow processing time and sample size limitation. The purpose of this study is complement of present SPL system. Brand new SPL system was made. SPL test was performed with the system in ultra thin PMMA(polymethlymethacrylate) film.

The atomic force microscopy (AFM) based lithographic technique has been used directly to machine material surface and fabricate nano components in MEMS (micro electro mechanical system). In this paper, three-dimensional molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been conducted to evaluate the characteristic of deformation process at atomistic scale for nano-lithography process. Effects of specific combinations of crystal orientations and cutting directions on the nature of atomistic deformation were investigated. The interatomic force between diamond tool and workpiece of copper material was assumed to be derived from the Morse potential function. The variation of tool geometry and cutting depth was also evaluated and the effect on machinability was investigated. The result of the simulation shows that crystal plane and cutting direction significantly influenced the variation of the cutting forces and the nature of deformation ahead of the tool as well as the surface deformation of the machined surface.

The nano imprint process is one of the next generation lithography has been mentioned as one of major nanoreplication techniques because it is simple process, low cost, high replication fidelity and relatively high throughput. This process requires a surface contact between a template with patterns and a wafer on a stage. After contact, the vertical moving the template to the wafer causes some directional motions of the stage. Thus the stage must move according to the motions of the template to avoid the damage of the transferred patterns on the wafer. This study is to develop the wafer stage with a passive compliance to overcome the damage. This stage is designed with the concept like that it has a monolithic, symmetry and planar 6-DOF mechanism.
