Development of radio-frequency heating-assisted nanoimprint with PETG solution for nanostructure-based biosensors
We present radio-frequency (RF) heating-assisted nanoimprint lithography (NIL) for the rapid fabrication of nanostructured biochips. The chips were spin-coated using a RF-sensitive polymer film, namely polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PETG). The RF heating process takes advantage of rapid...

Using a patterned nickel film as the mold, various nanostructures, such as nanowire, nanorod, and nanogrid arrays, were successfully fabricated within several seconds.
