چکیده
We report a low-cost, high-throughput process for fabricating moth-eye-like anti-reflector on curved surface. First, surface was made from UV-curable resin via UV imprinting. Then, the structures were formed directly polymer oxygen ion-beam etching. This produced flexible, transparent, and products with anti-reflective properties. The method avoids duplication, which is generally needed conventional fabrication. compared performance both flat lenses before after reflectance etching 150 s substantially 10% lower than that of non-etched usefulness this optical properties demonstrated.

Alternative moth-eye nanostructures: antireflective properties and composition of dimpled corneal nanocoatings in silk-moth ancestors
Moth-eye nanostructures are a well-known example of biological antireflective surfaces formed by pseudoregular arrays of nipples and are often used as a template for biomimetic materials. Here, we provide morphological characterization of corneal nanostructures of moths from the Bombycidae family, including strains of domesticated Bombyx mori silk-moth, its wild ancestor Bombyx mandarina, and a...
متن کاملThe fabrication of silicon nanostructures by focused-ion-beam implantation and TMAH wet etching.
Local gallium implantation of silicon by a focused ion beam (FIB) has been used to create a mask for anisotropic tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) wet etching. The dependence of the etch stop properties of gallium-doped silicon on the implanted dose has been investigated and a dose of 4 x 10(13) ions cm(- 2) has been determined to be the threshold value for achieving observable etching resis...
متن کاملBlack metal thin films by deposition on dielectric antireflective moth-eye nanostructures.
Although metals are commonly shiny and highly reflective, we here show that thin metal films appear black when deposited on a dielectric with antireflective moth-eye nanostructures. The nanostructures were tapered and close-packed, with heights in the range 300-600 nm, and a lateral, spatial frequency in the range 5-7 μm(-1). A reflectance in the visible spectrum as low as 6%, and an absorbance...
متن کاملIon-beam assisted laser fabrication of sensing plasmonic nanostructures
Simple high-performance, two-stage hybrid technique was developed for fabrication of different plasmonic nanostructures, including nanorods, nanorings, as well as more complex structures on glass substrates. In this technique, a thin noble-metal film on a dielectric substrate is irradiated by a single tightly focused nanosecond laser pulse and then the modified region is slowly polished by an a...
متن کاملFabrication of polymer microlens arrays using capillary forming with a soft mold of micro-holes array and UV-curable polymer.
This paper reports a simple and effective method to fabricate microlens arrays with the ultraviolet-curable resins, and a soft mold of micro-holes array. During capillary forming operation, the surface of the soft mold of micro-holes array is being pressed against the ultraviolet-curable resin layer coated on the plastic substrate. An array of convex lense can be formed in the circular holes of...
