Nanoimprint Materials Systems

Journal of Photopolymer Science and Technology, 2008
In UV cure nanoimprint lithography the interfaces as well as the resist composition play an important role in determining the characteristics of the resulting patterned material, which can be used for subsequent pattern transfer, or be functional. It is important for applications that there be only rare defects, and that template release always be a ...
