摘要:
Disclosed is nanoimprint technology that enables the transfer of fine patterns to the surfaces of various molding materials, including general-purpose engineering plastic, in a short manufacturing process time. Embodiments of the present invention include a nanoimprint method for transferring fine patterns of a mold surface to a molding material by pressing the mold against the molding material while applying ultrasonic vibrations that propagate in the direction of application of a load, where the application of the ultrasonic vibrations and the load is started without heating said molding material to glass-transition temperature and, during at least the application of ultrasonic vibrations, said mold is fixed to the application mechanism of said ultrasonic vibrations.

By using a disc type resonator, a sensor detects a substance having a mass and the mass with high sensitivity. Moreover, it is preferable to detect a change in vibrations of a substance attached or adsorbed to an area having a vibration amplitude equal to or larger than a constant value. This disc type resonator can be fabricated by the MEMS technique by using single-crystal or polycrystalline Si as a structural material. To improve the attachment efficiency of molecules and the like to be detected, irregularity or a groove is preferably provided on the surface of the disc type resonator.

A sensor 10 has a pump 20, an adsorbing unit 30, a gas chromatography unit 40, and a sensor unit 50 all of which are provided on a substrate 80. The pump 20 sucks in and condenses surrounding gas, and the adsorbing unit 30 adsorbs molecules contained in the gas. The gas chromatography unit 40 separates a particular type of molecules from those adsorbed to the adsorbing unit 30. An absorption film in the sensor unit 50 then adsorbs the separated particular type of molecules. The sensor unit 50 detects adsorption of the molecules to the adsorption film. On the basis of the detection level of the adsorption, a measurement processing unit 60 determines the presence of the particular type of molecules or measures the amount of the molecules. The present invention thus detects the presence of a particular type of molecules or measures the amount of the molecules.

There is provided a nanoimprint apparatus. The nanoimprint apparatus transfers a pattern formed on a surface of a mold to a transfer layer which is formed partially or entirely on a side surface of a substantially cylindrical or columnar substrate. The nanoimprint apparatus includes: a first jig which is in contact with the substrate 102; a second jig which rotatably supports the first jig; a press unit which is connected to the second jig to press the substrate on the mold 104 through the first and second jigs; and a movable holding unit which holds the mold and moves the mold 104 in a direction substantially perpendicular to a pressing force.
