STAMP FABRICATION FOR NANOIMPRINT LITHOGRAPHY BY PATTERN DEFINITION WITH STENCIL LITHOGRAPHY

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart, Nao Takano

A silicon stamp for nanoimprint lithography (NIL) was fabricated from the patterns defined by stencil lithography. Since stencil lithography has a capability of producing sub-micron patterns in a single process, we were able to make a silicon stamp with a ...

Nanostencil Lithography - Quick & Clean: Towards a reliable scalable nanopatterning method

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart, Oscar Vazquez Mena, Nao Takano

Stencil lithography is a surface patterning technique that relies on the local deposition of material through miniaturized shadow mask membranes. This method has been used since many years in various implementations for the formation of patterns, mainly st ...

Fabrication of metallic patterns by microstencil lithography on polymer surfaces suitable as microelectrodes in integrated microfluidic systems

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart, Nao Takano, Helmut Knapp

Microstencil lithography, i.e. local deposition of micrometer scale patterns through small shadow masks, is a promising method for metal micropattern definition on polymer substrates that cannot be structured using organic-solvent-based photoresist technol ...

Application of Microstencil Lithography on Polymer Surfaces for Microfluidic Systems with Integrated Microelectrodes

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart, Nao Takano

Microfluidic systems with incorporated microelectrodes are adopted in a variety of applications in life sciences. However, most of micro-electro-fluidic devices are fabricated based on silicon and silicon related materials micromachining processes, which a ...

In-situ stabilization of membranes for improved large-area and high-density nanostencil lithography

Jürgen Brugger, Marc Antonius Friedrich van den Boogaart

Patterning of micro- and nanometer scale structures by means of nanostencils (shadow masks) is increasingly being used as a simple, clean and low-cost alternative to photolithography. It can be shown, that sub-100-nm scale features can be fabricated throug ...

Liquid Crystal Alignment Chemical Nanopatterns : Control over Azimuthal and Polar Alignment

Toralf Scharf

We discuss alignment properties of nematic liquid crystals on surfaces that contain homeotropic and planar alignment areas on the same surface substrate. The basic idea is to locally pattern homeotropic agents (silane) on surfaces that usually lead to plan ...
