Abstract :
This report presents a new lithographic process utilizing the microphase-separated structures as an etching mask for wet chemical etching of Si wafer. The process demonstrated in this study could open easy tuning of pattern size by changing molecular weight of block copolymers and large area nanopattern transcription with high throughput.
