Abstract:
A method of transferring a reverse pattern using an imprint process includes: preparing a master mold, where a first pattern is defined on a surface of the master mold; coating an imprint resin on the master mold to cover the first pattern; pressing the imprint resin toward the master mold using a stamp member; curing the imprint resin to form a second pattern between the master mold and the stamp member, where the second pattern has a reverse shape to a shape of the first pattern; detaching the stamp member from the master mold to separate the second pattern from the master mold; and transferring the second pattern onto a transfer substrate.

Abstract:
An imprinting apparatus includes: a coating unit which coats a substrate with ink including a photocurable resin in a diluent; a pressing unit which presses the ink with an imprint stamp including an uneven pattern; and a light source which irradiates light to the ink, which is in a pressed state, and cures the photocurable resin. The coating unit, the pressing unit and the light source move relative to the substrate in a processing direction. The coating unit is located ahead of the pressing unit in the processing direction.
Abstract:
A patterning method using an imprint mold, to form an imprinted pattern structure, includes providing a resist layer from which the pattern structure will be formed, performing a first imprint process on a first area of the resist layer by using the imprint mold to form a first pattern of the pattern structure through deformation of the resist layer in the first area, and performing a second imprint process on a second area of the resist layer by using the imprint mold to form a second pattern of the pattern structure through deformation of the resist layer in the second area. The first and second areas are overlapped with each other in a third area of the resist layer, and the performing the second imprint process deforms a first portion of the first pattern in the third area to form the second pattern.
