摘要:
A recording apparatus including an ink tank and a recording head having a flow path forming portion that has an ejection orifice plate having plural ink ejection orifices and a liquid chamber provided for each orifice to supply ink to the orifices, and an energy generating element for ejecting ink in the chamber. A surface layer of the flow path forming portion opposes to the outside of the plate. An opening is provided opposing to the orifices in the surface layer. An ink reservoir is provided between the plate and the opening. A circulation flow path communicating with the ink reservoir is provided. The area of the opening is larger than that of the orifice. Both ends of the circulation flow path are respectively connected to inlet and outlet portions connected to the circulation flow path. The inlet and outlet portions and liquid chamber are connected to the ink tank.

An imprint apparatus for pressing resin and a mold to each other in a Z-axis direction to form a resin pattern on a shot region includes: a mold chuck; an X-Y stage; a reference mark formed on the stage; a first scope configured to measure a positional deviation in an x-y plane between a mold mark and the reference mark; a second scope configured to measure a position of a substrate mark in the plane not via the mold mark; and a dispenser configured to dispense resin. In the plane, the dispenser center is deviated in position from the mold chuck center by a first distance in a first direction, and the second scope center is deviated in position from the dispenser center by a distance smaller than twice the first distance in the first direction or a second direction opposite thereto.

An imprint apparatus in which a mold having a processing surface on which a predetermined imprint is formed is provided and an uncured resin material placed on a substrate is filled and cured in a space between the mold and the substrate and is subjected to imprint of the predetermined imprint formed on the processing surface of the mold. The imprint apparatus includes an attitude control mechanism for controlling attitudes of the mold and the substrate so that a first gap between a first end of the mold and the substrate and a second gap between a second end of the mold and the substrate are different from each other, and a measuring mechanism for measuring attitudes and positions of the mold and the substrate. Also provided is a mechanism for imparting a relative movement between the substrate and the mold so that the resin material approaches the first end of the mold and enters through the first gap and fills at least a part of the space between the mold and the substrate.

A nanoimprinting method includes: forming at a region for performing a first nanoimprinting process on a substrate, a first patterning region with a first affinity to resin; forming at a region for performing a second nanoimprinting process on the substrate, a second patterning region with a second affinity to resin, the second affinity being lower than the first affinity; applying the resin to the first patterning region and transferring a pattern of a mold to the resin by the first nanoimprinting process; and modifying the second patterning region to a region with affinity to resin that is higher than the second affinity, then applying the resin to the modified region, and performing the second nanoimprinting process to process the second patterning region thereby connecting patterns formed at the first patterning region and the second patterning region to each other.
摘要:
An imprint method for imprinting a pattern of a mold onto a resin material on a substrate. The imprint method includes a step of forming a processed area in which an imprint pattern corresponding to the pattern of the mold is formed, and an outside area formed of a periphery of the processed area, by bringing the mold into contact with the resin material formed on the substrate, so that a portion of the resin material is extruded from the processed area into the outside area, a step of forming a protection layer for protecting the processed area, and a step of removing a layer of the resin material in the outside area, while the imprint pattern formed on a layer of the resin material in the processed area, is protected by the protection layer, so as not to be removed.

A mold capable of a highly accurate alignment with a member to be processed in such a state that a photocurable resin material is disposed between the mold and the member to be processed, and is constituted by a substrate 2010 formed of a first material and an alignment mark 2102 formed of a second material different from the first material. The first material and the second material have transmissivities to light in a part of an ultraviolet wavelength range. The second material has a refractive index of not less than 1.7.

A mold capable of effecting alignment of the mold and the member to be processed with high accuracy even in such a state that a photocurable resin material is disposed between the mold and the member to be processed is constituted by a substrate 2010 formed of a first material and an alignment mark 2102 formed of a second material different from the first material. The first material and the second material have transmittivities to light in a part of an ultraviolet wavelength range of the ultraviolet light. The second material has a refractive index of not less than 1.7.
