    摘要: A method for making a patterned SiO2 films over TiO2 (Si02/Ti02) under ambient atmospheric conditions, including room temperature, through photo and chemical reactions. The method is simple, convenient and can be performed in a short period of time, typically less than two hours. The patterned TiO2 film is fabricated through photo-irradiation of a photosensitive organic-titanium film using a mask. Silica particles are generated from silicate solution by adjusting pH values to 10 to 8 with hydrochloric acid. The pre-deposited TiO2 film has a strong attraction for the SiO2 particles, leading to the instant formation of SiO2 film over the TiO2 film. The silica films are also amino-silylated with 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane toward applications such as patternable, location-specific silica-based separation and purification.

    摘要: The present invention relates to maskless photolithography using a patterned light generator for creating 2-D and 3-D patterns on objects using etching and deposition techniques. In an embodiment, the patterned light generator uses a micromirror array to direct pattern light on a target object. In an alternate embodiment, the patterned light generator uses a plasma display device to generate and direct patterned light onto a target object. Specifically, the invention provides a maskless photolithography system and method for photo stimulated etching of objects in a liquid solution, patterning glass, and photoselective metal deposition. For photo stimulated etching of objects in a liquid solution, the invention provides a system and method for immersing a substrate in an etchant solution, exposing the immersed substrate to patterned light, and etching the substrate according to the pattern of incident light. For patterning photoreactive glass, the invention provides a system and method for exposing photosensitive or photochromic glass, and washing the target glass with rinse and acid etchant solutions. For photoselective metal deposition, the invention provides a system and method for coating and rinsing a substrate prior to exposure exposing the substrate to a patterned light generator to activate areas corresponding to the incident light pattern, and plating the substrate in the area activated by the light after exposure. By providing a maskless pattern generator, the invention advantageously eliminates the problems associated with using masks for photo stimulated etching, patterning glass, and photoselective metal deposition.
