Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for the lithographic production of nano- and / or microstructures on a substrate having a three-dimensional macro-surface according to the preamble of claim 1, a stamp for carrying out the method according to the preamble of claim 11 and a substrate 12 produced by the method.
- Photolithography is a common method of semiconductor technology, in which a photoresist (so-called photoresist) is first applied to a substrate having a two-dimensional, i.e., a photoresist. plane, in particular a wafer is applied, wherein the photoresist is then chemically changed by means of a UV exposure through a mask at the exposed locations. Thereafter, the exposed substrate is dipped in a developing solution which peels off either the exposed photoresist regions (positive resist) or the unexposed photoresist regions (negative resist). The structured photoresist remains on the substrate, the maximum depth of the introduced structures depending on the height of the previously applied photoresist. Two-stage processes are feasible, but these processes are relatively expensive, since the lower photoresist layer must be insensitive to the exposure of the upper photoresist layer in order to prevent both layers from being patterned simultaneously.
- NIL nanoimprint lithography
