    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method of manufacturing a micrometallic structure having a high aspect ratio. SOLUTION: This method includes a step of manufacturing trenches by photolithography. Polymer chains are formed on the inside surface of the trenches. As a result, the microdimensions in the photolithography process can be reduced to arbitrary dimensions down to zero. This method is a method extremely general in terms of being applicable to arbitrary process inclusive of delineation of the microdimensions by the photolithography. The most general application is the reduction of the reading/writing dimensions of a thin-film magnetic head and this method is usable in the arbitrary technology in which the manufacture of the microstructure having the high aspect ratio is important.

    Abstract: A method for the manufacture of micro metallic structures having high aspect ratios is provided, wherein said method comprises the step of photolithographically producing trenches in a substrate. Polymer chains are formed on the inner surface of said trenches. Thus, the critical dimensions in the photolithographical process can be reduced to any dimension down to zero. The method is quite general in its application to any process that includes the definition of a critical dimension by photolithography. Immediate applications are the reduction of the read and write dimensions in thin film magnetic heads, but the invention can be used in any technology where the manufacture of microstructures having a high aspect ratio is of interest.

    Abstract: The invention relates to concentrated photovoltaics for thin film solar cell devices. The thin film solar cell device 100 comprises a substrate 10 with one or more thin film radiation absorbers 12 and a cover 20 which covers the substrate and the absorbers. Mounted to this is an integrated optical system 14, comprising at least one optical element 16 used for concentrating the light onto the solar cell. The optical element 16 and the corresponding radiation absorbers 12 are aligned with respect to their optical axis 24, such that an incoming radiation 22 is directed onto the radiation absorber 12 by the optical system 14. The device can have a second optical system 18 which is arranged between the first optical element and the radiation absorbers. The first optical system may be integrated at a top surface of the cover medium, and can comprise of a lens array, whilst the second optical system can comprise a light guide. The second optical element can be integrated with the top of the radiation absorbing device.
