Abstract:
A method for producing three-dimensional microstructures in which a source material is applied on a substrate, with a property changing by exposure with electromagnetic radiation. A three-dimensional source structure is written via spatially-resolving exposure in the source material, the source material is removed except for the source structure, and the source structure is molded with a target material, from which the microstructure to be produced is made. Here, a shell structure is provided surrounding the microstructure to be produced, with the source structure being created as the shell structure or the shell structure is produced using the source structure, and subsequently the target material is inserted into the shell structure.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a 3-dimensional structure assembled from nanoparticles by using a mask having a pattern of perforations, which comprises the steps of: in a grounded reactor, placing a mask having a pattern of perforations corresponding to a determined pattern at a certain distance above a substrate to be patterned, and then applying voltage to the substrate to form an electrodynamic focusing lens; and introducing charged nanoparticles into the reactor, the charged particles being guided to the substrate through the pattern of perforations so as to be selectively attached to the substrate with 3-dimensional shape. According to the process of the present invention, a 3-dimensional structure of various shapes can be produced without producing noise pattern, with high accuracy and high efficiency.

Abstract:
A method for patterning a material onto a substrate including the steps of: providing a micro-mold having a plurality of non-communicating independent channels and having a plurality of reservoirs for receiving a micro-molding fluid each of which reservoirs communicates with a channel, the micro-mold including an elastomeric master having a surface with a plurality of recesses therein and a substrate; introducing a micro-molding fluid into the micro-mold reservoirs filling said communicating channels; and solidifying the fluid in the micro-mold and removing the elastomeric master thereby generating a pattern of material on the substrate. The micro-mold is formed by contacting the surface of the elastomeric master with the substrate such that the recesses in the surface form the plurality of reservoirs and channels.

Abstract:
A method for the production of a fibrous network- substrate component. The method comprises the steps of providing a network of fibrous material (1) on a preliminary substrate (2) by filtering high aspect ratio molecular structures (HARM-structures) from gas flow, placing the network of fibrous material (1) on the preliminary substrate (2) in proximity to a secondary substrate (3), applying a force to the network of fibrous material (1) to preferably attract the network of fibrous material (1) from the preliminary substrate (2) to the secondary substrate (3) in order to transfer the network of fibrous material (1) from the preliminary substrate (2) to the secondary substrate (3), and removing the preliminary substrate (2) from the network of fibrous material (1).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of forming a three-dimensional copper nanostructure which includes steps of: manufacturing a test piece in a structure including an SiO2 mask; etching a plasma inclined in multiple directions to form a three-dimensional etching structure layer on the test piece; coating to enable metal to be filled in the portion in which the plasma inclined in multiple directions is etched; removing an overcoated portion and the SiO2 mask from the metal; and removing portions besides the metal which is the three-dimensional etching structure layer from the surface of the test piece. According to the present invention, to overcome a limitation of a focused ion beam etching (FIBE) method for manufacturing a copper nanostructure, a high-density plasma is used for etching the plasma inclined in multiple directions on a large test piece arranged on a faraday box, a copper film is formed on a gap of the etched test piece, and the overcoated copper film and the SiO2 mask are removed, thereby forming uniform arrays of a copper nanostructure, and being able to randomly control a diameter of the copper nanostructure for high applicability.
