Two-color photo-initiation/inhibition lithography
نویسندگان
چکیده
Traditional photolithography begins with single-photon absorption of patterned light by a photo-initiator to locally expose a resist. In two-color photo-initiation/inhibition (2PII) lithography, these exposed regions are confined by a surrounding pattern of inhibitors generated by one-photon absorption of a second color in a photo-inhibitor. Like a stencil used to confine spray-paint to a thin, sharp line, the inhibitory pattern acts as a remotely programmable, transient near-field mask to control the size and shape of the modified resist region. The inhibiting species rapidly recombine in the dark, allowing for fast sequential exposures and thus enabling fabrication of complex twoor threedimensional structures.

10.4: Mechanically Stabilized Bistable FLC Cells on Plastic Substrates
The electro-optical properties of a fully flexible photo-aligned FLC cell are investigated. Two different methods, sticky spacers together with a photo-sensitive monomer and polymer spacers in a regular pattern formed by photo-lithography, are proposed to stabilize the structure in order to increase the bending tolerance of the FLC material during deformation of the cell.
متن کاملSystematic framework for evaluating standard cell middle-of-line robustness for multiple patterning lithography
For robust standard cell design, designers need to improve the intercell compatibility for all combinations of cells and cell placements. Multiple patterning lithography colorability check breaks the locality of traditional rule check, and N-wise checks are strongly needed to verify the colorability for layout interactions across cell boundaries. A systematic framework is proposed to evaluate t...

متن کاملA photo-polymerization resist for UV nanoimprint lithography
A novel liquid photo-polymerization resist was prepared for nanoimprint lithography on transparent flexible plastic substrates. The resist is a mixture of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), methylmethacrylate (MMA), methacylic acid (MAA) and two photo-initiators, (2-isopropyl thioxanthone (ITX) and ethyl 4-(dimethylamino)benzoate (EDAB)). The resist can be imprinted at room temperature with a press...
متن کاملPhoto-induced inhibition of Alzheimer's β-amyloid aggregation in vitro by rose bengal.
The abnormal aggregation of β-amyloid (Aβ) peptides in the brain is a major pathological hallmark of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The suppression (or alteration) of Aβ aggregation is considered to be an attractive therapeutic intervention for treating AD. We report on visible light-induced inhibition of Aβ aggregation by xanthene dyes, which are widely used as biomolecule tracers and imaging marke...
