Indentation pattern and line pattern were machined on borosilicate(Pyrex 7740 glass) surface using the combination of mechanical machining by $Nanoi-indenter\circledR$ XP and HF wet etching, and a etch-mask effect of the affected layer of the nano-scratched and indented Pyrex 7740 glass surface was investigated. In this study, effects of indentation and scratch process with etching time on the morphologies of the indented and scratched surfaces after isotropic etching were investigated from an angle of deformation energies.

1996년 Chou 등이 개발한 가열방식의 나노임프린트 리소그래피(nanoimprint lithography, NIL)은 선폭 100nm 이하의 나노구조물을 경제적으로 제작할 수 있는 대표적인 나노패턴닝(nano-patterning) 공정으로 많은 기대가 모아지고 있으나, 열변형에 의해 다층정렬이 어렵다는 점과, 점도가 큰 레지스트(resist)를 임프린트하기 위해서는 고압(∼30 bar)이 필요하다 점 등의 문제점이 있다. 이를 해결할 수 있는 방법으로 UV 나노임프린트 리소그래피(ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography, UV-NIL)를 들 수 있다.(중략)

We report a method to fabricate a large-area metal nanowire-grid polarizer. Liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding (LB-nTM) is based on the direct transfer of metal nanowires from a mold to a transparent substrate via liquid layer. A metal particle solution is used as an ink in the LB-nTM, which can be used for the formation of metal nanowires. The nanowires have higher depth are preferred for high transmittance. The height of nanowires that we made is about 140 nm. Large-area WGP is fabricated with good average transmittance of 74.89% in our measuring range.

We report a one-step fabrication of single-crystal organic nanowire arrays on substrates using a new direct printing method (liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer moulding, LB-nTM), which can simultaneously enable the synthesis, alignment and patterning of the nanowires using molecular ink solutions. Two- or three-dimensional complex structures of various single-crystal organic nanowires were directly fabricated over a large area with a successive process. The position of the nanowires can be aligned easily on complex structures because the mold is movable on substrates before drying the polar liquid layer, which acts as an adhesive lubricant. This efficient manufacturing method can produce a wide range of optoelectronic devices and integrated circuits with single-crystal organic nanowires.

We report a one-step fabrication method of Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) (PFO) nanowire array with pronounced ${\beta}$-Phase. We use liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding (LB-nTM) which is a new direct nano-patterning method based on the direct transfer of various materials from a mold to a substrate via liquid layer. The formation of the ${\beta}$-phase morphology in the resulting PFO nanowire array was evidenced by the presence of an absorption peak at 435nm. With the collection polarizer oriented parallel to the wire long axis, the PL emission was most intense and an emission dichroic ratio, DRE, of 3.7 was determined. The nanowire array have been investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Also, we simply fabricated structure of device of ITO/PFO nanowire arrays/Al and the electroluminescence spectra were recorded at various applied voltage.

We propose the method which is possible to fabricate the electrodes with the fine pattern and low resistance by photolithography and electroplating. The widths of pattern fabricated were 30, 50, 70 and 100um and the thickness could be up to $10{\mu}m$. The resistivity of the copper electrode electroplated was below $2.0{\mu}{\Omega}$ cm which is about half of photosensitive silver electrode. Dielectric layer was coated on the electrodes by screen printing and the pores harmful to the discharge were not formed after heat treatment. In the viewpoint of resistance and patterning, this method has much higher potential for large area display than other methods like screen printing, photosensitive conductive paste method and sputtering.

A microfabricated electrochemical cell comprising PDMS-based microchannel and in-channel gold microelectrodes was fabricated as a sensitive and a miniature alternative to the conventional electroanalytical systems. A reproducible fabrication procedure enabled patterning of multiple microelectrodes integrated within a PDMS-based fluidic network. The active area of each electrode was $200{\mu}m{\times}200{\mu}m$ with a gap of $200{\mu}m$ between the electrodes which resulted in a higher signal to noise ratio. Also, the PDMS layer served the purpose of shielding the electrical interferences to the measurements. Analytes such as potassium ferrocyanide; amino acid: cysteine and nucleoside: guanosine were characterized using the fabricated cell. The microchip was comparable to bulk electrochemical systems and its applicability was also demonstrated with flow injection based rapid amperometric detection of DNA samples. The device so developed shall find use as a disposable electrochemical cell for rapid and sensitive analysis of electroactive species in various industrial and research applications.

An effective wet-chemical approach is demonstrated for growing large-area, selectively-patterned, and low-temperature-synthesized ZnO nanorods (ZNRs). The growth of ZNRs was enhanced on a Co layer. The selectivity and density were readily controlled by the control of the temperature when the substrate transfers into aqueous solution. The cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy image shows that single crystalline ZNRs grown along [0001] have good adhesion at interface between ZNRs/substrate. The turn-on field was 4 $V/{\mu}m$ at the emission current density of 1 ${\mu}A/cm^2$. The stable emission was obtained at 0.11 $mA/cm^2$ under 7.2 $V/{\mu}m$ over 10 hr. These results suggest that selectively-patterned ZNRs have the potential for use as field emitters in large-area field emission displays.

We generated single-crystal organic nanowire arrays using a direct printing method (liquidbridge- mediated nanotransfer molding) that enables the simultaneous synthesis, alignment and patterning of nanowires from molecular ink solutions. Using this method, single-crystal organic nanowires can easily be synthesized by self-assembly and crystallization of organic molecules within the nanoscale channels of molds, and these nanowires can then be directly transferred to specific positions on substrates to generate nanowire arrays by a direct printing process. The position of the nanowires on complex structures is easy to adjust, because the mold is movable on the substrates before the polar liquid layer, which acts as an adhesive lubricant, is dried. Repeated application of the direct printing process can be used to produce organic nanowire-integrated electronics with twoor three-dimensional complex structures on large-area flexible substrates. This efficient manufacturing method is used to fabricate all-organic nanowire field-effect transistors that are integrated into device arrays and inverters on flexible plastic substrates.

To fabricate uniform and reliable thin gold stripes that provide low-loss optical waveguides, we developed a novel liftoff process placing an additional $SiN_x$ layer under conventional photoresists. By patterning a photoresist and over-etching the $SiN_x$, the photoresist patterns become free-standing structures on a lower-cladding. This leads to uniform metal stripes with good reproducibility and effectively removes parasitic structures on the edge of the metal stripe in the image reversal photolithography process. By applying the newly developed process to polymer-based gold stripe waveguide fabrication, we improved the propagation losses about two times compared with that incurred by the conventional image-reversal process.
