But in real case, as shown in Fig. 1(b), the inks often reside in cavities of the mold structure while spin coating, and causes lots of residual layers in the following step. This is because that pressure deforms mold in the step of stamping, leading on roof collapse (see Fig. 2(a). For solving roof collapse, many molds are designed and fabricated with high aspect ratio. However, PDMS molds with high aspect ratio have other defects, highly costly, time consuming, complex or limited in size. On the other hand, due to its unique nanohoneycomb structure, anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) has been used as a nanostructured tem- plate for nanotechnology 18. The characteristic features of AAO could be easily controlled by adjusting the anodizing conditions 19,20, such as the anodic voltage, the temperature of the electro- lyte solution and the anodizing time. The structures of AAO have been applied in many fields, including anti-reflection and hydrophobicity. In this paper, we present a novel method for the fabrication of hydrophobic nanostructures on the cavities of microstructures Corresponding author.

A transfer stamp- ing process has also been proposed to fabricate thin-film patterns on the PMMA substrate for application of organic thin-film transis- tor 3,4. The process primarily relies on different adhesion forces of the transferring interfaces, ink/mold and ink/substrate, to trans- fer patterns from the relief features of the mold to the substrate. No complex pre-process is needed, and patterns can be transferred in one step. In ideal case, as shown in Fig. 1(a), the transfer stamping process can transfer micro-patterns directly from the stamp mold terns without residual layers by controlling wetting phenomena on the surface of micro-cavity. Wetting phenomena on solid surfaces has been widely studied in recent years. Superhydrophobic mate- rials such as lotus leaves have been studied in both theoretical fields and experimentally 6,7, and they are useful in micro-fluid- ics, self-cleaning coats, heat sink panels, and etc. Many methods have been developed to fabricate superhydrophobic materials such as lithography 8, template methods 9,10, ion bombardment 11,12, self-assembly of a monolayer 13, chemical deposition 14,15 and photocatalysis 16,17.

Due to the of molds and inks, residual inks on the cavities of mold and residual layers To solve the problem, we present a concept for fabrication of hydro- cavities of microstructures of the mold, which can effectively decrease the mold during coating. First, the periodic nanopores are fabricated on the at ScienceDirect Engineering Engineering850 Y.-H. Huang et al./Microelectronic using AAO template. We first fabricate AAO template, and this tem- plate is then used to emboss a PC film in the first hot embossing process. Next, we operate the second hot embossing process with this embossed PC film as a substrate and a stainless steel mold with micro-holes. After that, a PC film of protruded convex micro- structures with AAO nanostructures is obtained. This PC film with nano/micro structures is then applied as a master mold to cast its structures by PDMS. Finally, a PDMS mold of hydrophobic nano- structures on surface of micro-cavity is obtained. The complete fabrication process is shown in Fig. 3. We also demonstrate the hydrophobic property of AAO nanostructure by measuring the Fig. 1.

Schematic showing the deformation of mold: (a) roof collapse, (b) buckling and (c) lateral collapse. 2.3. Fabrication process The process to fabricate PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostruc- tures on surface of micro-cavity is shown in Fig. 3. The first step is to fabricate the nano-structured PC film by protruding the bare PC contact angle (CA) on the surface of PDMS molds with different structures. Lastly, the results of transfer stamping process are shown, providing that PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity can improve the problems of residual inks and residual layers. 2. Fabrication of PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity 2.1. Fabrication of AAO template with porous nanostructures and mold with micro-holes The material of the AAO template used is an industrial alumi- num sheet with 99.7% purity, and the fabrication process of AAO template is shown in Fig. 4. At the beginning, the sheet is electro- polished in a mixture solution of perchloric acid and ethanol (HClO 4 :C 2 H 5 OH = 1:4), and is applied as a cathode while a carbon rod is used as an anode. A constant voltage of 10 V is supplied for 15 min. Then, the polished sheet is anodized for the first time in a solution of 0.1 M oxalic acid for 5 h; the temperature of the solution is maintained at 4 C176C, and a constant voltage of 80 V is ap- plied. Later, the sheet is immersed into a solution of 6 wt% phos- phoric acid at 90 rpm stirring speed the temperature of 32 C176C for 2 h to remove the oxygen layer on the sheet. The sheet is then anodized the second time under the same condition as the first anodization but for only 10 min. Next, to enlarge the holes of AAO, the sheet is put into a solution of 6 wt% phosphoric acid at 90 rpm stirring speed and temperature of 32 C176C again for 15 min. Eventually, an AAO template with porous nanostructures is ob- tained. Fig. 5 shows the scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of AAO template with nano-holes. Due to the impurity of this aluminum material, the nanostructures on the AAO template are disordered, like lotus leaf which has surfaces mixed with micro and nano structures, creating high hydrophobic property. For fabricating microstructures, we fabricate a stainless steel mold with micro-holes. First of all, a 50-mm-thick stainless steel shadow mask with a micro-hole array is prepared, which supplied by Key Star Technology, Taiwan. The stainless steel shadow mask has an array of 300C2300 holes and is fabricated by double sided photolithography and wet etching. Fig. 6 is the optical microscope (OM) image of this stainless steel mold. The micro-holes are 145lm in diameter and 200lm in pitch. 2.2. Gas-assisted hot embossing process Fig. 7 is the scheme of gas-assisted hot embossing process. In this process, a mold and a polymeric substrate are firstly put onto a hot plate, and poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) film is used as a seal film to cover the mold and substrate. Next, the chamber is closed, and N 2 gas is blown into the chamber as pressure; in the meanwhile, the heater raises the temperature to or near to T g (glass transition temperature) in order to soften the polymeric substrate. In this step, the mold is pressed to the softened substrate, emboss- ing the negative pattern on the substrate. After that, the chamber is cooled, the gas is released and the chamber is opened. Eventu- ally, this embossed substrate with structures is obtained. 88 (2011) 849854 film into the pores of AAO template. The nano-structured PC film is used as the substrate in the second step. The second step is the fabrication of protruded convex microstructures on this AAO EngineeringY.-H. Huang et al./Microelectronic nano-structured PC film. Protruded convex microstructures with AAO nanostructures are formed by partial protrusion of the soften film into the micro-holes of the stainless steel mold under the ef- fects of the capillary and surface tension in the hot embossing pro- cess. After that, the following step is to replicate the structure of this embossed PC film using PDMS mixture. This PC film of pro- truded convex microstructures with nanostructures is applied as master mold; PDMS mixture, which consists of base agent and cur- ing agent at the ratio of 10:1, is then poured upon the master mold to cast the PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity. After suitable curing time at room temperature, PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity is obtained. 2.4. Results and discussion of nanostructures on the cavities of microstructures Fig. 8(a) shows the SEM image of PC film of protruded convex microstructures with nanostructures. This PC film is fabricated by first and second gas-assisted hot embossing processes in sequence. The parameters of the first hot embossing are 155 C176C and Fig. 3.

This figure shows that AAO nanostructures are fabricated successfully on the surface of the protruded convex microstructures on the embossed PC film through the first and sec- ond gas-assisted hot embossing processes. This PC film is then used as a master mold, and replicated its structures by PDMS mixture. After curing PDMS mixture, the PDMS mold of hydrophobic nano- structures on surface of micro-cavity is obtained. Fig. 8(b) shows the SEM image of this PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity. As shown, the surfaces of these micro-cavities are full of AAO nanostructures. This proves that the combination of AAO nanostructures with micro-cavity struc- tures is achieved through the second hot embossing process. The surface profile of PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity is shown in Fig. 9. This figure shows that the cavities are about 18lm in depth. In order to evaluate the hydrophobic ability of AAO nanostruc- tures,we measure the contactangle (CA) on differentPDMS surface as shown in Fig. 10.

SEM image of AAO template with nano-holes. 852 Y.-H. Huang et al./Microelectronic Engineering 88 (2011) 849854 CA is nearly 145C176. It is found that the CA is higher than that on the smooth PDMS surface, which proves that nanostructures can im- prove the hydrophobic property effectively. Fig. 10(c) shows that the CA on the curved PDMS with nanostructures. Compared to Fig. 10(b), the result reveals that the hydrophobicity remains even after the second gas-assisted hot embossing process. 3. Application of PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity 3.1. A transfer stamping process As mentioned above, Fig. 1 schematically shows the transfer stamping process: first, the ink is spin coated onto the mold. Next, Fig. 6. Optical microscope (OM) image of stainless steel mold of micro-holes array. Fig. 7. Scheme of gas-assisted hot embossing process: (a) the mold-substrate stack, (b) covering the stack with seal film, (c) enclosing the stack in the chamber, and then infusing gas and heating and (d) releasing gas, cooling, and de-molding. EngineeringY.-H. Huang et al./Microelectronic this mold is pressed onto a substrate to transfer the ink pattern from the feature of this mold. The following step is de-molding. Finally, the transferred pattern is obtained. In our experiment, a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film (A-type, NAN YA, Taiwan) with a thickness of 180lm is used as the flexibletransparent substrate, and the material of ink is positive photoresist EPG 510 (Everlight Chemical Inc., Taiwan). 3.2. Results and discussion of patterns transferred on the PET substrate In this study, the transfer stamping process is operated with PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro- cavity, as well as PDMS mold simply with micro-cavities but with- out hydrophobic nanostructures. We operate transfer stamping process with these two molds individually. The material of ink we use is EPG510 (a sort of positive photoresist). At the beginning, proper quantity of EPG510 is dropped onto the mold; after 1 min, the spin coater is operated at 6000 rpm for 20 s. Then, the mold is pressed onto PET film under 0.4 kgfcm 2 gas pressure for 1 min, transferring ink pattern from the mold feature to the PET film. After that, the pressure is released and the next step is de-molding. Finally, the transferred pattern is obtained. Fig. 8. (a) SEM image of PC film of protruded convex microstructures with nanostructures micro-cavity. Fig. 9. The surface profile 88 (2011) 849854 853 Fig. 11 shows the results of transfer stamping process. Fig. 11(a) shows the transferred pattern of PDMS mold simply with micro- cavities but without hydrophobic nanostructures. It is obvious that there is residual EPG510 in these micro-cavities, which is then transferred onto the PET film, creating a large quantity of residual layers. On the contrary, Fig. 11(b) shows the transferred pattern from PDMS mold of hydrophobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity to PET film. The largest diameter of these circular shapes in the transferred pattern is 146.3 lm, which is about 0.9% deviation from the mold structures. The smallest diameter of these circular shapes in the transferred pattern is 141.3 lm, which is about 2.6% deviation. And the average diameter of these circular shapes in the transferred pattern is 144.3lm, resulting in an devi- ation of about 0.5%. Comparing Fig. 11(a) with Fig. 11(b), evidently, the AAO nanostructure helps solve the problems of residual inks and residual layers in transfer stamping process. 4.

Huang et al./Microelectronic Engineering 88 (2011) 849854 the mold. We also report on a novel fabrication of nanostructures of anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) template on the protruded con- vex microstructures. The nanostructures and protruded convex microstructures are fabricated on the same polycarbonate (PC) film by hot embossing in sequence. After that, PDMS mold is casted from the embossed PC film, and eventually PDMS mold of hydro- phobic nanostructures on surface of micro-cavity is obtained. The contact angle on the flat PDMS with nanostructures is nearly 145C176, higher than that on the smooth PDMS surface without nanostructures, which is about 110C176. The result proves that nanostructures can improve the hydrophobic property effectively. Besides, the contact angle on the curved PDMS with nanostruc- tures is also about 145C176. Furthermore, micro-patterns with no residual layers have been successfully transferred on the PET substrate using a transfer stamping process with this PDMS mold. Obviously, the fabrication of PDMS mold of hydrophobic nano- structures on surface of micro-cavity helps solve the problems of residual inks and residual layers in transfer stamping process. Fig. 10.
