Nanotransfer Printing with sub-10 nm Resolution Realized using Directed Self-Assembly

An extraordinarily facile sub-10 nm fabrication method using the synergic combination of nanotransfer printing and the directed self-assembly of block copolymers is introduced. The approach is realized by achieving the uniform self-assembly of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-containing block copolymers on a PDMS mold through the stabilization of the block copolymer thin films. This simple printing method can be applied on oxides, metals, polymers, and non-planar substrates without pretreatments. The fabrication of well-aligned metallic and polymeric functional nanostructures and crossed wire structures is also presented.
