The National Nanotechnology Initiative NNI Leading to the Next Industrial Revolution was introduced in as part of President Clintons FY2001 budget in an effort to support long term nanoscale research, development and education. The emerging fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology span diverse areas such as nanoelectronics, medicine, the environment, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, agriculture, biotechnology and computation.. Nanoscience is the study of the world on the nanometer scale, from approximately one nanometer 1x10 to several hundred nanometers.

To put this into the appropriate perspective, consider that ten hydrogen atoms lined up side by side are nanometer long, that DNA molecule is nanometers wide or that the individual components of computer processor are about nanometers in size.

Control of matter at the nanoscale already plays an important role in scientific disciplines as diverse as physics, chemistry, materials science, biology, medicine, engineering, and computer simulation. Nanoscience and nanotechnology have the ability to fundamentally change the way almost everything is designed and manufactured, from automobile tires and tennis racquets to air purifiers and lifesaving vaccines. Some of the common visions of nanotechnologyfueled future are tiny bodyexamining cameras that can be swallowed like pills, supercomputers times more powerful than those currently available, and chips the size of sugar cubes capable of storing the entire content of the Library of Congress.

Nearfuture nanotechnology applications include more efficient fuel and solar cells, the reduction of carbon dioxide emissions in cars, and new world of sensors in variety of fields, from bioterrorism to biotechnology.. Recently, nanoscientists have broadened the application of nanotechnology.

We demonstrate the versatility of stencilassisted reactive ion etching is lowcost and parallel process for the replication of micrometric and nanometric patterns in any organic material.

Without any further lithographic procedures, structures in the regime of 100nm and below can be directly prepared by vapour deposition while partly shadowing the substrate with free standing stencil mask, here an Si3N4 membrane with an array of small holes. Viallet, J. Secondly, the fabrication step has been integrated in liftoff process of metal or molecular selfassembled monolayers. Musil, Due to shift of the mask is precisely controlled.

Purchase PDF 1355 KDirect growth of nanostructures by deposition through an Si3N4 shadow maskPhysica E Lowdimensional Systems and Nanostructures,Volume 4, Issue 3,July Pages 196200J. reduction in size was achieved by applying mask with reduced hole diameters ranging up to 300nm. We demonstrate the versatility of stencilassisted reactive ion etching though examples. They have the shape of truncated cones with bottom diameter of about 550nm.

An ebeam evaporator is used for fabrication with Si3N4coated Si stencil mask cantilever. This lithography process allows the patterning of organic material non sensitive to electronic or optical radiations, sensitive to solvents, or already patterned which cannot be patterned by conventional lithography methods. The mask can be positioned with nanometer precision over range of m m. Musil, The system has three ultrahigh vacuum UHV chambers with vibration dampers to reduce mechanical noise and ion pumps for use during fabrication and imaging. Due to shift of the mask is precisely controlled.

small gap between the mask and the substrate to be prepared independently in situ different materials to be incorporated by multiple evaporation sources and custommade holes or patterns to be created in the stencil mask. With such mask very uniform dots of chromium have been grown on germanium substrates. They have the shape of truncated cones with bottom diameter of about 550nm. Khler, reduction in size was achieved by applying mask with reduced hole diameters ranging up to 300nm.
