    摘要: The present invention provides a method to pattern a substrate which features creating a multi-layered structure by forming, on the substrate, a patterned layer having protrusions and recessions. Formed upon the patterned layer is a conformal layer, with the multi-layered structure having a crown surface facing away from the substrate. Portions of the multi-layered structure are removed to expose regions of the substrate in superimposition with the protrusions, while forming a hard mask in areas of the crown surface in superimposition with the recessions.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a method of controlling dimensional relations between an original pattern present in a mold and a recorded pattern formed in a layer of a substrate. In this manner, the size of the recorded pattern may appear to be magnified and/or reduced, when compared to the original pattern. To that end, the method comprises defining a region on the layer in which to produce the recorded pattern. The substrate is bent to produce a contoured surface in the region. Dimensional variations in the original pattern are produced by bending the mold, defining a varied pattern. The contoured surface and the mold are provided to have similar radii of curvatures. The varied pattern is then recorded in the layer. These and other embodiments of the present invention are discussed more fully below.

    摘要: The present invention features a method of patterning a substrate that includes forming from a first material, disposed on the substrate, a first film having an original pattern that includes a plurality of projections. The projections extend from a nadir surface terminating in an apex surface defining a height therebetween. A portion of the first film in superimposition with the nadir surface defines a nadir portion. The nadir portion is removed to expose a region of the substrate in superimposition therewith, defining a plurality of recessions. A second material is disposed upon the first film to form a second film having a surface spaced-apart from the apex surface of the plurality of projections and filling the plurality of recessions to form a multi-film stack. The first film and portions of the second film are removed to create a plurality of spaced-apart projections of the second material on the substrate.

    摘要: The present invention features a method of patterning a substrate that includes forming, on the substrate, a first film having an original pattern that includes a plurality of projections a subset of which extends from a nadir surface terminating in an apex surface defining a height therebetween. A second film is disposed upon the first film and defines a surface spaced-apart from the apex surface of the plurality of projections. A variation in a distance between the apex surface of any one of the plurality of projections and the surface being within a predetermined range. A recorded pattern is transferred onto the substrate that corresponds to the original pattern, within the predetermined range being selected to minimize pattern distortions in the recorded pattern.

    摘要: A high-throughput lithography process for creating high-resolution patterns in a polymerizable composition using carefully controlled electric field followed by curing of the polymerizable composition is described. The process involves the use of a template that includes the desired patterns. This template is brought into close proximity to the polymerizable composition on the substrate. An external electric file is applied to the template-substrate interface while maintaining a uniform, carefully controlled gap between the template and substrate. This causes the polymerizable composition to be attracted to the raised portions of the template. By appropriately choosing the various process parameters such as the viscosity of the polymerizable composition, the magnitude of the electric field, and the distance between the template and substrate, the resolution of the structures formed in the liquid may be controlled to conform to that of the template.
