ABSTRACTThe Step and Flash Imprint Lithography (S-FILTM) process uses field-to-field drop dispensing of UV curable liquids for step and repeat patterning for applications where high-resolution mix-and-match overlay is desired. Several applications, including patterned media, photonic crystals and wire grid polarizers, are better served by a patterning process that prints the full wafer since alignment requirements are not so stringent. In this paper, a methodology for creating high resolution thin templates for full wafer (or disk) imprinting is described. The methods have been applied toward the imprinting of both patterned media and photonic crystal devices using a large area printing tool developed around the S-FIL process. Techniques for further enhancing the pattern density as well as a method for addressing feature image placement are described. Finally, a process for replicating a Master Template is discussed in detail.

Ink-jet printing is an important image transfer technology. In this technology, the electronic capabilities are often constrained by shortcomings of materials functions. One of the constraints for fast reproduction of high-resolution photographic quality color images is the print dry time. This presents a challenge in the film technology where large quantities of solvent must be rapidly removed without transporting colorants outside the targeted areas. In this work, this is achieved by chemical immobilization of water by organic polymers incorporated into the film matrix. In this dense film, immobilization of large volumes of water becomes possible by a transient local swelling of the matrix—as much as 600–700%. This mechanism of water immobilization not only creates a virtually dry state instantaneously, but also leads to a tighter containment of colorants within the targeted areas, resulting in a significant improvement in edge acuity and image resolution. In addition, the film is printer and ink nonspecific and produces a high gloss on photographic paper.
