    摘要: Embodiments of the invention relate to lithography method useful for patterning at sub-micron resolution. This method comprised of deposition and patterning self-assembled monolayer resists using rolling applicator and rolling mask exposure apparatus. Typically the application of these self-assembled monolayers involves contacting substrate materials with a rotatable applicator in the shape of cylinder or cone wetted with precursor materials. The nanopatterning technique makes use of Near-Field photolithography, where the mask used to pattern the substrate is in contact with self-assembled monolayer. The Near-Field photolithography may make use of an elastomeric phase-shifting mask, or may employ surface plasmon technology, where a rotating mask surface comprises metal nano holes or nanoparticles.

    摘要: Embodiments of the invention relate to methods of anti-counterfeiting for nanostructures and nanostructured devices. Specifically we describe a method of embedding a coded micro- or nanopatterns in nanostructures fabricated using Near-field rolling mask lithography, where areas of such features can be embedded into a transparent cylindrical or conic frame, or fabricated on the surface of flexible film laminated on the surface of the frame. Alternatively, specific coded nanofeatures distribution can be created using modulation of intensity or wavelength of the light source along the width or length of such cylinder or cone, or modulation of flexible film thickness or contact pressure between the rotatable mask and a substrate.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for fabricating an electroplating mask for the formation of a miniature magnetic pole tip structure. The method incorporates a silylation process to silylate photoresist after creating a photoresist cavity or trench in the electroplating mask. The silylation process is performed after a dry etch of the photoresist. Alternatively, silylation is performed after a lithographic patterning of the trench. As a result of chemical biasing, the vertical side walls of the photoresist layer shift inward creating a narrower trench. The resulting structure formed after electroplating has a width of less than 0.3 micrometers. This structure can be used as a magnetic pole of a thin film head (“TFH”) for a data storage device.

    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure describe cylindrical molds that may be used to produce cylindrical masks for use in lithography. A structured porous layer may be deposited on an interior surface of a cylinder. A radiation-sensitive material may be deposited over the porous layer in order to fill pores formed in the layer. The radiation-sensitive material in the pores may be cured by exposing the cylinder with a light source. The uncured resist and porous layer may be removed, leaving behind posts on the cylinder's interior surface. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure. It is submitted with the understanding that it will not be used to interpret or limit the scope or meaning of the claims.

    摘要: In anisotropic etching of the substrates, ultra-thin and conformable layers of materials can be used to passivate sidewalls of the etched features. Such a sidewall passivation layer may be a Self-assembled monolayer (SAM) material deposited in-situ etching process from a vapor phase. Alternatively, the sidewall passivation layer may be an inorganic-based material deposited using Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) method. SAM or ALD s layer deposition can be carried out in a pulsing regime alternating with sputtering and/or etching processes using process gasses with or without plasma. Alternatively, SAM deposition is carried out continuously, while etch or sputtering turns on in a pulsing regime. Alternatively, SAM deposition and etch or sputtering may be carried out continuously. Both types of suggested passivation materials give advantage over state-of-the-art methods in ability to carefully control thickness and uniformity of the layers, thus enable anisotropic etching process for high aspect ratio nanosize features.

    摘要: This invention provides composite plastic articles and methods of making them. The articles can be fluidic or microfluidic devices having fluidic conduits and, optionally, pneumatic conduits that regulate flow in the fluidic conduits. The articles comprise a first substrate coated with a layer of a material that comprises, or onto which have been introduced, reactive groups. For example, the substrate can be a plastic coated with an oxide or a siloxane onto which hydroxyl groups have been introduced. These articles are covalently bonded with other articles comprising reactive groups on their surfaces, for example, polysiloxanes treated to have silanol groups. Certain articles have specified locations on their surfaces that are not bonded to the other piece. For example, the coating can be removed from these locations before bonding. Such locations can be useful as functional elements of various devices, such as valve seats in valves of microfluidic devices.
