SUBSTRATE CONFORMAL IMPRINT LITHOGRAPHY MARKET

INTRODUCTION

 The Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography (SCIL) process combines the benefits of a hard glass carrier for low pattern distortion and highest resolution with a soft composite working stamp for broad area patterning. The sequential imprinting approach used by SCIL, which uses capillary forces rather than backside pressure, reduces air inclusions even over huge regions and ensures the highest uniformity.

A reliable and automatic disconnection inside the tool is made possible by the sequential separation of the stamp and the substrate, which also prevents harm to the built-up structures.

This imprint process is particularly effective for applications like LED/VCSEL, optical elements, patterned media, or functional materials like printed electronics or RFIDs because to its exceptional performance in terms of substrate conformance and pattern fidelity over wide regions.

SUBSTRATE CONFORMAL IMPRINT LITHOGRAPHY MARKET RECENT DEVELOPMENT

Full wafer size nanoimprinting using substrate conformal imprint lithography (SCIL) is a cutting-edge technology . Flexible PDMS stamps are used in this sub-micrometer patterning technique to transfer the structure.

When SCIL technology was first created, it was used to transfer shapes into sol gel materials, which then solidified through solvent diffusion into the PDMS stamp material. how SCIL can be extended to UV-enhanced SCIL (UV-SCIL). With this new choice, SCIL-method resists made of UV-curable materials are now a possibility.

The "Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography of Functional Materials'' (SIFUMA) project was started by SUSS MicroTec and the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated Systems and Device Technology (IISB) with funding from the "Bayerische Forschungsstiftung" (AZ-864-09) in order to advance this potent technology.

The initial work package's goal was to assess UV-SCIL resists made entirely of organic materials. Inorganic chemistry is a common component of SCIL or UV-SCIL resists .

Their suitability for dry etching methods is therefore constrained. Additionally, all typical SCIL or UV-SCIL resists require lengthy curing times, ranging from 3 to 15 minutes .

The benefit of using just organic materials as etching masks is that they work well with common dry etching techniques. As demonstrated, a further benefit of UV polymers for UV-SCIL is the substantial decrease of curing time when compared to frequently used resists. In essence, the SCIL method takes less time overall when UV curing polymers are used.
