Abstract

Integrated Automation and Parallelization of Thermal Probe Lithography for Advanced Nanodevice Fabrication

Thermal scanning probe lithography (t-SPL) with the NanoFrazor offers high-resolution damage-free patterning, with high placement accuracy and second layer alignment. Featuring integrated automation and a closed-look feedback mechanism, the NanoFrazor effectively addresses complex fabrication challenges and enables diverse applications in nanophotonics, quantum nanoelectronics, nanobiosystems, and research on emerging materials. To broaden its application potential and maintain streamlined workflows, automating and parallelizing the NanoFrazor lithography process is essential. In this presentation, I will discuss the latest advancements in NanoFrazor technology and demonstrate how multi-tip patterning with the Decapede improves the scalability of t-SPL without compromising resolution.
