Application of nano-imprint lithography

Abstract

Nano-imprint lithography is one of the promising technologies for low cost mass production of Giga-bit-scale integration systems. This paper demonstrates various possibility of the nano-imprint lithograph for fine pattern fabrication. Fabrication of optical elements or bio-chemical analysis systems is one of the suitable field of nano-imprint lithography, because the resist structure it's self works as an functional element such as a diffractive grating, an anti-reflection structure or a fluid channel. Also, application of nano-imprint lithography to various materials are discussed such as acrylic plate, glass plate and biodegradable polymer.
