Direct wet printing of polumer solutions for high resolution lithography
Abstract
Stable liquid and polymer structures can be formed by dip-coating chemically patterned substrates into a liquid reservoir and withdrawing at constant speed. The desired liquid shapes form on substrates coated with a pre-patterned self-assembled monolayer of OTS or HDT. Microscale feature sizes are easily obtained. For a dip-coated sample consisting of weIl spaced vertical hydrophilic strip es surrounded by hydrophobic regions, the maximum deposited film thickness scales as W Ca 1/3, where W is the stripe width and Ca the capillary number based on the plate withdrawal speed, are suit well confirmed by experiment. This correlation is markedly different from the classic Landau-Levich result for the dip-coating of chemically homogeneous surfaces. The dependence on the stripe width, W, permits the deposition of very thin liquid layers. The liquid microstructures formed by dip-coating are then brought into contact with a hydrophilic surface to mimic an offset printing press. This techique has so far printed 5 mu m wide PEO stripes. Optimization of this process should lend itself to the rapid reproduction of liquid and semi-solid microstructure elements.+
