Additive, direct-write manufacturing via a focused electron beam has evolved into a reliable 3D nanoprinting technology in recent years. Aside from low demands on substrate materials and surface morphologies, this technology allows the fabrication of freestanding, 3D architectures with feature sizes down to the sub-20 nm range. While indispensably needed for some concepts (e.g., 3D nano-plasmonics), the final applications can also be limited due to low mechanical rigidity, and thermal- or electric conductivities. To optimize these properties, without changing the overall 3D architecture, a controlled method for tuning individual branch diameters is desirable. Following this motivation, here, we introduce on-purpose beam blurring for controlled upward scaling and study the behavior at different inclination angles. The study reveals a massive boost in growth efficiencies up to a factor of five and the strong delay of unwanted proximal growth. In doing so, this work expands the design flexibility of this technology.

AbstractWe report systematic studies of the response of C60 derivatives to electron beam irradiation. Films of fourteen different mono, tris and tetra adduct methanofullerene C60 derivatives were produced by spin coating on hydrogen terminated silicon substrates. Exposure of the films to a 20 keV electron beam substantially altered the dissolution rate of the derivative films in organic solvents such as monochlorobenzene. All of the derivatives exhibited negative tone resist behaviour with sensitivities between ∼ 8.5 × 10-4 and ∼ 4 × 10-3 C/cm2 107, much higher than that of C60. Features with widths of ∼ 20 nm were produced using these compounds, and the etch ratios of the compounds were found to be more than twice those of a standard novolac based resist (SAL601).

II-VI inorganic/organic heterostructures consisting of ZnSe and tris(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (Alq3) were prepared by electron beam evaporator. Alq3 layer with 20 nm was grown between 200-nm ZnSe layers. Photoluminescence measurement was conducted at various temperatures in order to investigate the important temperature-dependent parameters of this structure. PL spectra revealed thermal population of exciton state and the change in PL quantum efficiency of the film.
