Abstract
This work reports a facile method to fabricate multi-tiered polymer nanopatterns on SU-8 by the combination of imprint- and photo-lithography. First, SU-8 is imprint patterned using a polymeric flexible mold with an anti-adhesion coating that is deposited on a transparent and flexible substrate, at room temperature under low pressure. Next, the resulting SU-8 nanopatterns are exposed to UV light through a chromium mask by a photolithographic process. Removal of the unexposed SU-8 leaves behind multi-tiered structures. The use of a hemispherical poly(dimethylsiloxane) pad facilitates the evacuation of trapped air during the imprinting process. Line/space patterns of 500 nm with the smallest line width of 200 nm were homogeneously imprint-patterned on SU-8 on a large flexible substrate, and three-tiered structures, ranging in thickness from 300 nm to 2 μm, were successfully formed. © 2007 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
