    Abstract: A method and a system for manufacturing two-dimensional and three-dimensional nanostructures and nanodevices are described, wherein the formation of the nanostructure (of the nanodevice) on a target substrate is made, at a millimetric or super-millimetric distance from the substrate, by the deposition of material emitted in the form of an atomic/molecular beam having a selected pattern corresponding, at an enlarged scale, to the desired pattern of the nanostructure (nanodevice). The projection of the patterned beam through a diaphragm, associated with the substrate at a micrometric or sub-micrometric distance and having at least one shaped aperture of nanometric size, brings about the formation of a nanostructure pattern which is a convolution of the patterned beam with the diaphragm aperture.

    Abstract: A method for forming a micro- or nano-pattern of a material on a substrate is presented. The method utilizes a buffer layer assisted laser patterning (BLALP). A layered structure is formed on the substrate, this layered structure being in the form of spaced-apart regions of the substrate defined by the pattern to be formed, each region including a weakly physisorbed buffer layer and a layer of the material to be patterned on top of the buffer layer. A thermal process is then applied to the layered structure to remove the remaining buffer layer in said regions, and thus form a stable pattern of said material on the substrate resulting from the buffer layer assisted laser patterning. The method may utilize either positive or negative lithography. The patterning may be implemented using irradiation with a single uniform laser pulse via a standard mask used for optical lithography.

    Abstract: A method of forming complex three-dimensional microstructures wherein an external stimulus is applied to a first layer of a photosensitive material, thereby creating voids in the first layer, and any material present in those voids is removed. A sacrificial material is then provided within at least a portion of the voids. This sacrificial layer fills the voids, either in whole or in part, and enables a second layer of photosensitive material to be stacked upon the first, while still preserving the pattern formed in the first layer. Once the sacrificial layer has been applied, a second layer of photosensitive material may then be stacked onto the first. Successive layers of photosensitive material and sacrificial material may be added until a final, complex three-dimensional structure is created. The sacrificial material may then be removed with a solvent such as carbon dioxide.

    Abstract: A method for forming a microstructure includes photolithographically forming a vertically extending post on a portion of a surface of a substrate to provide a first structure. A flowable, sacrificial material is deposited over a surface of the first structure. The flowable, sacrificial materially flows off the top surface and sidewall portions of the post onto adjacent portions of the surface of the substrate to provide a second structure. A non-sacrificial material is deposited over a surface of the second structure. The non-sacrificial material is deposited to conform to the surface of the second structure. The non-sacrificial is deposited over the sacrificial material, over the sidewall portions and over the top surface of the post. The deposited sacrificial material is selectively removed while the non-sacrificial material remains to form a third structure with a horizontal member provided by the non-sacrificial material. The horizontal member is supported a predetermined distance above the surface of the substrate by a lower portion of the post. The flowable material is a flowable oxide, for example, hydrogensilsesquioxane glass, and the post has a width less than 20 .mu.m. The resulting structure, formed with a single photolithographic step, is used for supporting a capacitor deposited over it. The capacitor is formed as a sequence of deposition steps; i.e., depositing a first conductive layer over a surface of the support structure; depositing a dielectric layer over the conductive layer; and depositing a second conductive layer over the dielectric layer.
