Sub‐micron replication of fused silica glass and amorphous metals for tool‐based manufacturing
Abstract
The growing importance of submicrometer-structured surfaces across a variety of different fields has driven progress in light manipulation, color diversity, water-repellency, and functional enhancements. To enable mass production, processes like hot-embossing (HE), roll-to-roll replication (R2R), and injection molding (IM) are essential due to their precision and material flexibility. However, these processes are tool-based manufacturing (TBM) techniques requiring metal molds, which are time-consuming and expensive to manufacture, as they mostly rely on galvanoforming using templates made via precision microlithography or two-photon-polymerization (2PP). In this work, a novel approach is demonstrated to replicate amorphous metals from fused silica glass, derived from additive manufacturing and structured using hot embossing and casting, enabling the fabrication of metal insets with features in the range of 300 nm and a surface roughness of below 10 nm. By partially crystallizing the amorphous metal, during the replication process, the insets gain a high hardness of up to 800 HV. The metal molds are successfully used in polymer injection molding using different polymers including polystyrene (PS) and polyethylene (PE) as well as glass nanocomposites. This work is of significant importance to the field as it provides a production method for the increasing demand for sub-micron-structured tooling in the area of polymer replication while substantially reducing their cost of production.
