Nanotransfer printing (nTP) has attracted considerable attention due to its good pattern resolution, process simplicity, and cost-effectiveness. However, the development of a large-area nTP process has been hampered by critical reliability issues related to the uniform replication and regular transfer printing of functional nanomaterials. Here, we present a very practical thermally assisted nanotransfer printing (T-nTP) process that can easily produce well-ordered nanostructures on an 8-inch wafer via the use of a heat-rolling press system that provides both uniform pressure and heat. We also demonstrate various complex pattern geometries, such as wave, square, nut, zigzag, and elliptical nanostructures, on diverse substrates via T-nTP. Furthermore, we demonstrate how to obtain a high-density crossbar metal-insulator-metal memristive array using a combined method of T-nTP and directed self-assembly. We expect that the state-of-the-art T-nTP process presented here combined with other emerging patterning techniques will be especially useful for the large-area nanofabrication of various devices.

The four polarisation method is adopted for measurement of molecular orientation in dielectric nanolayers of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) metamaterials composed of gold nanodisks on polyimide and gold films. Hyperspectral mapping at the chemical finger printing spectral range of 4–20 μμm was carried out for MIM patterns of 1–2.5 μμm period (sub-wavelength). Overlay images taken at 0,π4,π2,3π4 orientation angles and subsequent baseline compensation are shown to be critically important for the interpretation of chemical mapping results and reduction of spurious artefacts. Light field enhancement in the 60-nm-thick polyimide (I in MIM) was responsible for strong absorption at the characteristic polyimide bands. Strong absorbance A at narrow IR bands can be used as a thermal emitter (emittance E=1−R), where R is the reflectance and A=1−R−T, where for optically thick samples the transmittance is T=0.

A tunable demultiplexer with three output channels infiltrated by liquid crystal (LC) is presented, which is based on a metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide. The operating frequencies of the three output channels can be tuned simultaneously at will by changing the external bias electric field applied to the LC. By analyzing the Fabry-Pérot (FP) resonance modes of the finite-length MIM waveguide both theoretically and numerically, the locations of the three channels are delicately determined to achieve the best demultiplexing effects. Terahertz (THz) signals input from the main channel can be demultiplexed by channels 1, 2 and 3 at 0.7135 THz, 1.068 THz and 1.429 THz, respectively. By applying an external electric field to alter the tilt angle of the infiltrating LC material, the operating frequencies of channels 1, 2 and 3 can be relatively shifted up to 12.3%, 9.6% and 9.7%, respectively. The designed demultiplexer can not only provide a flexible means to demultiplex signals but also tune operating bands of output channels at the same time.
