Equipment: SUSS MicroTec – Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography (SCIL)
Technique: Nanoimprint lithography
Contact person (AlmaScience): Luís Pereira (luis.pereira@almascience.pt)
Responsible: Diana Gaspar (diana.gaspar@almascience.pt)
Description: SCIL technology is particularly suitable for high demand imprint processes. Here a soft stamp is used in combination with a hard but flexible glass carrier, thereby achieving superior evenness of contact and exceptionally high fidelity in pattern transfer. SCIL technology is suited for all highly demanding processes where a high-quality etching mask is employed, such as the production of optical elements as well as in the production of TFTs.
Specifications:
- Soft stamp on glass backplate (flexible stamp)
- Chuck for 4” wafers with wafer thickness compensation
- Sequential stamp imprint and separation from resist
- Automated process (manual tunning possible for specific application needs)
- Good residual layer control
- High resolution (40 nm line patterns tested) and high uniformity in 4” wafer
- Low-pressure imprint
- PDMS stamp manufacturing toolset from rigid masters
