We have developed a nonlithographic patterning technique using polystyrene nanoparticles to form nanonet channel structures which is promising for high-performance TFT applications. Nanoparticles assisted patterning (NAP) is a technique to form uniform nano-patterns by applying lift-off and dry etch process. Oxygen plasma treatment was used to control the diameters of nanonet hole size to realize a branch width down to 100 nm. NAP technology can be very promising to fabricate nanonet structure with advantages of lower manufacturing cost and large-area patterning capability.

Nanoporous alumina film was fabricated by anodization of an aluminum sheet. Highly ordered nanowellstructured and nanonets-tructured metal films were fabricated by vacuum evaporation of several metals(Al, Sn, and Co) using the anodic nanoporous alumina film as a template. In this experiment, an anodic porous alumina film with the cell size of 100 nm and the pore diameter of 60 nm was used. The resistance heating method was adopted for evaporating a desired metal, and vapor deposition was carried out under the base pressure of torr. It was founded that whether the structure fabricated by vacuum evaporation is nanowell or nanonet is dependent on the amount of deposited material. When an anodic porous alumina film with the cell size of 100 nm and the pore diameter of 60 nm was used, a nanowell-structured film was fabricated when a sufficient amount of metal was suppled to cover the surface pores. On the other hand, nanonet-structured film was fabricated bellow a half the amount of metal required for nanowell-structured film.
