Motivation
Market Trends Small features
Sub-10nm clusters deposited Patterns 50nm to 250nm and greater
Lower cost of tedious fabrication processes for conventional lithography
Increase throughput (from e-beam) – parallel process Bottom line: bridge gap between traditional self-
assembly and lithography

Process Overview
Dip wafer (Si) into micelle solution
Retrieve at 12mm/min
Air-evaporate solvent
Plasma (H2, Ar, or O2) removes polymer shell
Results: Uniform Hexagonal 2, 5, 6, or 8nm Spherical
PS(190)-b-P[2VP(Au0.2)](190) PS(500)-b-P[2VP(Au0.5)](270)

Diblock Copolymer Micelles
Dendrite shaped macromolecule Corona is amphiphilic Micelle MW and shape controlled by
initial monomer concentration Polymer corona with “neutralized” core
(Au, Ag, AgOx, Pt, Pd, ZnOx, TiOx, Co, Ni, and FeOx)
Nanodot “core” size is controlled by the amount of metal precursor salt

Cluster Pattern Characterization
MW tunes nanodot distance (max of 200 nm micelle) Low polydispersity permits regularity Higher MW decreased pattern quality and position precision
(softness in shell)
Low PDI

Guided Self-Assembly (>250nm) Predefine topographies
using photo or e-beam Spin-on concentrated
micelle solution (capillary forces of evaporating solvent adheres them to sides)
Micelles are pinned to the substrate by plasma (100W, 0.4mbar, 3min)
Lift-off removes PR and micelles
2nd plasma treatment removes micelle polymer (100W, 0.4mbar, 20min)
PS(1350)-b-P[2VP(Au0.5)](400)D = 8nm, L = 85nm

Cluster Aggregation
Vary PR thickness
Feature height (volume) defines cluster diameter

Negative Patterning with E-beam Spin-on micelles Expose with e-beam (1KeV, 400-
50,000 μC/cm2), 200um width Ultrasound bath + 30min plasma Electrons stabilize micelle on Si due
to carbon species formed during exposure

Micelles on Electrically Insulating Films Glass substrate
desired in biology
E-beam requires conductive substrate
Evaporate 5nm carbon layer

Mechanical Stability of Nano-Clusters Treated and unaffected by:
Pirahna, acids, many bases, alcohols, ultrasonic water bath
Hypothesis: edge formed by the substrate-cluster borderline is partly wetted by surface atoms during plasma treatment
Thermal 800 C evaporated clusters but no migration
occured
