Largescale imprinting of silver submicrometer structures: Technique for producing highaspectratio metal microstructures and s,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
While metals are extremely widespread in the macroscopic world, the use of metallic microstructures is currently limited by the deficiency of efficient fabrication techniques and the incomplete understanding of the material properties at submicrometer scale. In this thesis the author exploited the exceptional malleability of silver and gold to extend the use of the forging technique (imprinting) to sizes down to 100 nm and aspect ratios above 10. The successful largescale production of metal microstructures enabled the study of size effects on mechanical properties. Moreover, the interaction of light with metalsemiconductor subwavelength periodic structures (metamaterials) was investigated. The results indicate that (nano)imprinting can indeed be used for producing highquality metal microstructures as well as for metalizing structured dielectrics. The observation of strong size effects in structures below 1 um (showing inhomogeneous deformation and up to 10fold higher strengths compared to the bulk) and of sharp IRlight resonances in silversilicon photonic crystals contribute to develop the necessary knowhow for the design of innovative MEMS and optoelectronic applications.
By changing our most important processes and
products, we have already made a big leap forward. This ranges from the
increased use of more sustainable fibers to the use of more
environmentally friendly printing processes to the development of
efficient waste management in our value chain.
