Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanoimprinting has grown rapidly since it was proposed in 1995 by Prof. Chou. Now machines, resins, and molds for nanoimprinting are commercially available worldwide. The application fields of nanoimprinting are expanding to not only electronics but also optics, biology, and energy because nanoimprinting is a simple and convenient method for nanofabrication, and some devices are now being mass-produced. In the near future, the application of nanoimprinting in display and semiconductor fields is expected. This book explains the fundamentals of nanoimprinting in terms of materials, processes, and machines. It also describes the applications of nanoimprinting in optics, biology, energy, and electronics. In addition, it includes as many practical examples of nanoimprinting as possible. The fundamentals will help advanced undergraduate and graduate students understand nanoimprinting. The examples will be useful for both researchers working in nanoimprinting for the first time and engineers involved in research and development of various devices using nanostructures.

Download or read book Nanoimprint Lithography written by Hongbo Lan and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lithography, the fundamental fabrication process of semiconductor devices, has been playing a critical role in micro-nanofabrication technologies and manufacturing of Integrated Circuits (IC). Traditional optical lithography including contact and project photolithography has contributed significantly to the semiconductor device advancements. Currently, maintaining the rapid pace of half-pitch reduction requires overcoming the challenge of improving and extending the incumbent optical projection lithography technology while simultaneously developing alternative, next generation lithography (NGL) technologies to be used when optical projection lithography is no longer more economical than the alternatives. Furthermore, NIL is also one of the most promising low-cost, high-throughput technologies for manufacturing nanostructures as this highly technical book will give new insight to.

Download or read book Nanofabrication written by Ampere A. Tseng and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2008 with total page 583 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of the devices and systems used in modern industry are becoming progressively smaller and have reached the nanoscale domain. Nanofabrication aims at building nanoscale structures, which can act as components, devices, or systems, in large quantities at potentially low cost. Nanofabrication is vital to all nanotechnology fields, especially for the realization of nanotechnology that involves the traditional areas across engineering and science. This is the first book solely dedicated to the manufacturing technology in nanoscale structures, devices, and systems and is designed to satisfy the growing demands of researchers, professionals, and graduate students. Both conventional and non-conventional fabrication technologies are introduced with emphasis on multidisciplinary principles, methodologies, and practical applications. While conventional technologies consider the emerging techniques developed for next generation lithography, non-conventional techniques include scanning probe microscopy lithography, self-assembly, and imprint lithography, as well as techniques specifically developed for making carbon tubes and molecular circuits and devices.
