Structural investigation of uniform ensembles of self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires fabricated by a lithography-free technique [PDF]
Structural analysis of self-catalyzed GaAs nanowires (NWs) grown on lithography-free oxide patterns is described with insight on their growth kinetics. Statistical analysis of templates and NWs in different phases of the growth reveals extremely high dimensional uniformity due to a combination of uniform nucleation sites, lack of secondary nucleation ...

Ptychographic characterization of polymer compound refractive lenses manufactured by additive technology [PDF]
The recent success in the development of high precision printing techniques allows one to manufacture free-standing polymer structures of high quality. Two-photon polymerization lithography is a mask-less technique with down to 100 {\mu}m resolution that provides full geometric freedom.

Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Sources for Lithography based on Synchrotron Radiation [PDF]
The study presented here was initiated by a discussion to investigate the possibility of using synchrotron radiation as a source for the Next Generation Lithography (NGL) based on the EUV-concept (Extreme Ultra-Violet; here 13.5 nm or 11.3 nm radiation ...

Distortion analysis of crystalline and locally quasicrystalline 2D photonic structures with GISAXS [PDF]
In this study, grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) is used to collect statistical information on dimensional parameters in an area of 20 mm x 15 mm on photonic structures produced by nanoimprint lithography. The photonic structures are composed of crystalline and locally quasicrystalline two-dimensional patterns with structure sizes

Scaling of the coercivity with the geometrical parameters in epitaxial Fe antidot arrays [PDF]
We studied a series of square lattice antidot arrays, with diameter and lattice parameter from hundreds of nanometers to some microns, fabricated using two lithography techniques in epitaxial Fe(001) films.

Submicrosecond X-ray lithography
X-rays from laser-heated plasmas were used to replicate features as fine as 750 nm in the positive resist polybutene-1-sulfone (p.b.s.). The measured sensitivities of p.b.s. to pulsed and d.c. X-rays (≈ 109 ratio in exposure rate) are similar (no reciprocity loss). Laser-plasma X-rays produced only small (0.25 V) flat-band shifts in m.o.s.

Extraordinary Transmission in the UV Range from Sub-wavelength Slits on Semiconductors [PDF]
In this paper we describe a way to achieve the extraordinary transmission regime from sub-wavelength slits carved on semiconductor substrates. Unlike metals, the dielectric permittivity of typical semiconductors like GaAs or GaP is negative beginning in the extreme UV range (lambda <= 270nm).
