A long-exposing technique (LET) has been conducted to create nanoscale patterns applicable to diverse micro-devices using two-photon polymerization (TPP). By the weakly-polymerized region via the LET, double-layered embossing patterns can be fabricated simply in a single step. The LET makes possible a voxel and its surrounding to be fully grown into more than 500 nm in lateral size and weakly-polymerized region (WPR), respectively. In the WPR. interconnecting ribs between voxels are generated, and they lead to the creation of double-layered dot patterns. Moreover, by controlling the distance between voxels, various shapes of interconnecting rib can be fabricated when the LET is applied. Various embossing patterns were fabricated to evaluate the usefulness of the proposed technique as a novel nanopatterning technique in TPP.

Experimental studies on the fabrication of sub-30 nm nanofibers using weakly two-photon induced photopolymerized region have been carried out. For the generation of nanofibers inside or outside microstructures, an over-polymerizing method involving a long exposure technique (LET) was proposed. Such nanofibers can find meaningful applications as bio-filters, mixers, and many other uses in diverse research field. A multitude of nanofibers with a notably high resolution (about 22 nm) in two-photon polymerization was achieved using the LET. Furthermore, it was demonstrated that the LET can be employed for the direct fabrication of various embossing patterns by controlling the exposure duration and the interval between voxels. Thin interconnecting networks are formed regularly in the boundary of the over-polymerized region, which allows for the creation of various pattern shapes. Overall of this work, some patterns including nanofibers are fabricated by the LET.
