Combination of Thermal Scanning Probe Lithography and Directed Self-Assembly of Block Copolymers

Jürgen Brugger, Arnaud Bertsch, Berke Erbas

The fabrication of semiconductor quantum devices necessitates sub-20 nm features and high-density patterning, often exceeding the capabilities of current state-of-the-art lithographic techniques. To address this challenge, in this work, the combination of ...
