The nanostructuring of surfaces and films using interference lithography and chalcogenide photoresist

چکیده
The reversible and transient photostimulated structural changes in annealed chalcogenide glass (ChG) layers were used to form interference periodic structures on semiconductor surfaces and metal films. It was shown that negative-action etchants based on amines dissolve illuminated parts of a chalcogenide film, i.e., act as positive etchants. The diffraction gratings and 2-D interference structures on germanium ChGs - more environmentally acceptable compounds than traditionally used arsenic chalcogenides - were recorded, and their characteristics were studied.

Fabrication of Periodic Plasmonic Structures Using Interference Lithography and Chalcogenide Photoresist.
This study reports on the employment of the interference lithography (IL) technique, using photoresist based on the chalcogenide glass (ChG) films, for fabrication of one-dimensional (gratings) and two-dimensional (arrays) periodic plasmonic structures on the surface of glass plates. The IL technique was optimized for patterning of the Au and Al layers and formation of gratings and arrays with ...
متن کاملFabrication and Optical Characterization of Silicon Nanostructure Arrays by Laser Interference Lithography and Metal-Assisted Chemical Etching
In this paper metal-assisted chemical etching has been applied to pattern porous silicon regions and silicon nanohole arrays in submicron period simply by using positive photoresist as a mask layer. In order to define silicon nanostructures, Metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE) was carried out with silver catalyst. Provided solution (or materiel) in combination with laser interference lithogr...
متن کاملSiO2 single layer for reduction of the standing wave effects in the interference lithography of deep photoresist structures on Si
We demonstrate that the use of a single SiO2 film, with thickness corresponding to one standing wave (SW) period allows the recording of deep photoresist structures on silicon substrates by laser interference, without use of any additional antireflecting coating. This condition corresponds just to the opposite thickness (half SW period) previously proposed for using the SiO2 films for phase-shi...
متن کاملAccurate characteristics of Helium in nano-channels
This article describes an accurate subPico flowmeter bifurcatedin to liquid and gas flowrates less than 1mol/s for both MEMS/NEMS and cryogenic technology applications. The MEMS/NEMS are described as either two Gauges (instrument), or quartz fluctuating forks, even if the liquid or gas flows through an element, as well as cryogenic technology consisting of arrays of e...
