After Rhodes (2019), Turin (2021) and Leuven (2022), the International Conference on Micro- and Nano Engineering (MNE) series will take place in Berlin in September 2023. This will be the 49th edition of the conference series, which began in Cambridge in 1975. The MNE conference is the flagship event of the ... In thermal nanoimprint lithography, polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) with good thermoplasticity is often used as transferring media. However, due to the special properties of PMMA, the accuracy of microstructure transferred to the surface will be seriously affected. To address this problem, the micro-vibration by piezo-driven is …The growth and expansion of 5G wireless networks and IoT require a high degree of functionality for semiconductors, which use a huge amount of power during the manufacturing process. DNP has developed nanoimprint lithography (NIL) which realizes both miniaturization and low production power consumption. Here presents an in-depth look at this innovative NIL technology. Introduction. Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is an embossing technique that enables the replication of micro and nanostructures [1], [2]. The high resolution on a large substrate area with low processing time makes NIL attractive for applications such as light emitting diodes, hard disk drives, display technology and solar cells [3].The roll-to-roll ultraviolet nanoimprint lithography (R2R UV-NIL) technique provides a solution for the continuous fabrication of flexible SERS substrate due to its high-speed, large-area, high ...ASML ’s share price dipped by more than 2% and Canon’s rose by nearly as much on the nanoimprint news. In practice, Canon has its work cut out. Dylan Patel of SemiAnalysis, a semiconductor ...Nanoimprint lithography is a contact technology where a surface relief pattern is transferred from a mold onto polymer material on a hard substrate. Subsequently, the residual layer is removed and the resulting polymer material is used as a mask for pattern transfer into the substrate.
