What is Nanolithography

Nanotechnology has given birth to many useful sub technologies, one of them is the Nanolithography. It is a science which deals with structure at microscopic level for detecting, writing, printing and communicating their characteristics to concerned parts.

How Nanolithography works?

Nanolithography is used in the many fields of applications, it is  a branch of nanotechnology which is used for further fabrications of nanometer materials and molecules. It is used during the integration of edge semiconductors, integrated nanocircuitry or nanoelectromechanical systems.Two of most important instruments used in the nanolithography processing are

Scanning Probe Microscope 

Atomic Force Microscope

The Scanning probe microscope permits the surface viewing in advanced detail without modifying it and both SPM and the ATM could be engaged to write, or print on a surface in individual atom direction.

Types of Nanolithography

Nanolithography has many a type according to the area of work in which it is used. Some of them are listed below with brief description.

1)Optical nanolithography

Optical lithography, is a technique for patterning the various surfaces and have the capability for producing  sub patterns up-to to 100 nm with minor wave lengths. Optical nanolithography requires the use of liquid immersion and resolution host.Most experts feel that optical nano lithography techniques are most cost effective then traditional  methods of lithography.

2)X-ray Nanolithography

Another type of nanolithogrphy is the x ray nanolithography which is quite different from traditional X-ray lithography.It has the ability to improve and extend  optical resolution of 15 nm by using the short wavelengths of 1 nm for the illumination. This is performed by printing approach and is used for batch processing.

Nanloithography Techniques :

1)Electron Beam Direct –Write Lithography

2)Extreme ultraviolet lithography

3)Charged-particle lithography

Nanoelectronics – Nanotechnology in Electronics

The term nanoelectronics refers to the use of nanotechnology in electronic components. These components are often only a few nano meters in size. However, the tinier electronic components become, the harder they are to manufacture.

Nanoelectronics covers a diverse set of devices and materials, with the common characteristic that they are so small that physical effects alter the materials’properties on a nano scale – inter-atomic interactions and quantum mechanical properties play a significant role in the workings of these devices. At the nano scale, new phenomena take precedence over those that hold sway in the macro-world. Quantum effects such as tunneling and atomistic disorder dominate the characteristics of these nano scale devices

NANOELECTRONIC DEVICES :

SPINTRONICS:

Besides transistors, nanoelectronic devices play a role in data storage (memory). Here, spintronics – the study and exploitation in solid-state devices of electron spin and its associated magnetic moment, along with electric charge – is already an established technology.

Spintronics also plays a role in new technologies that exploit quantum behavior for computing (read more: “Quantum computing moves forward with spintronics progress” and “The birth of topological spintronics”).

OPTOELECTRONICS:

Electronic devices that source, detect and control light – i.e. optoelectronic devices – come in many shapes and forms. Highly energy-efficient (less heat generation and power consumption) optical communications are increasingly important because they have the potential to solve one of the biggest problems of our information age: energy consumption.

In the field of nanotechnology, materials like nanofibers (see for instance: “Light-emitting nanofibers shine the way for optoelectronic textiles”) and carbon nanotubes have been used and especially graphene has shown exciting potential for optoelectronic devices.

DISPLAYS:

Display technologies can be grouped into three broad technology areas; Organic LED, electronic paper and other devices intended to show still images, and Field Emission Displays. For more, read our special section on Nanotechnology in Displays.

WEARABLE, FLEXIBLE ELECTRONICS:

The age of wearable electronics is upon us as witnessed by the fast growing array of smart watches, fitness bands and other advanced, next-generation health monitoring devices such as electronic stick-on tattoos.

If current research is an indicator, wearable electronics will go far beyond just very small electronic devices or wearable, flexible computers. Not only will these devices be embedded in textile substrates but an electronics device or system could ultimately become the fabric itself. Electronic textiles (e-textiles) will allow the design and production of a new generation of garments with distributed sensors and electronic functions. Such e-textiles will have the revolutionary ability to sense, act, store, emit, and move – think biomedical monitoring functions or new man-machine interfaces – while ideally leveraging an existing low-cost textile manufacturing infrastructure (see for instance “wearing single-walled carbon nanotube electronics on your skin”, a “temporary tattoo to monitor glucose levels” or “graphene nanosensor tattoo on teeth monitors bacteria in your mouth”).

NANOELECTRONICS IN ENERGY:

Solar cells and super capacitors are examples of areas where nanoelectronics is playing a major role in energy generation and storage. To learn more read our detailed sections on Nanotechnology in Energy and Graphene Nanotechnology in Energy.

MOLECULAR ELECTRONICS

Distinct from nanoelectronics, where devices are scaled down to nano scale levels, molecular electronics deals with electronic processes that occur in molecular structures such as those found in nature, from photosynthesis to signal transaction.

Molecular electronics aims at the fundamental understanding of charge transport through molecules and is motivated by the vision of molecular circuits to enable miniscule, powerful and energy efficient computers (see for instance: “Adding an optoelectronic component to molecular electronics”).

20 Things You Didn’t Know About… Nanotechnology

HOW IT MIGHT KILL US, HOW IT MIGHT SAVE US, AND HOW IT WAS USED IN THE SMALLEST EVER MARKETING STUNT

1  Get small. A nanometer is about the width of a strand of DNA; if you design, build, or use functional systems smaller than 100 of these, you’re a nano technologist.

2  By that definition, we have been doing nano tech for centuries. For instance, the colors in medieval stained glass windows result from nano crystals created in the heating and cooling of the glass.

3   Size matters. At the nano scale, materials take on unusual properties. Their color, transparency, and melting point often differ significantly from those of larger clumps of the same stuff.

4  Nanoscale bits of metal oxide, carbon fiber, or metal blends can detoxify hazardous waste: Their extreme solubility and chemical reactivity help them zero in on the nasty stuff.

5  This approach is already being used at sites in a dozen states, mostly to clean groundwater fouled by solvents, metals, and petroleum.

6  Brighter colors! Richer flavors! Less spoilage! Those are some of the reasons why companies are dumping nano particles into hundreds of products, including cosmetics, sunscreens, and food.

7  Analysts say the global market for manufactured goods using nanomaterials could hit $1.6 trillion by 2013.

8  Uh-oh. Studies show that nano particles can work their way into the bloodstream, penetrate cells, and get past the blood-brain barrier. Research has linked such particles to lung damage; the brain may be affected too.

9  But if those particles don’t kill us, they just might save us. Scientists at U.C. San Diego have designed a fluorescent nano particle that glows inside the body, making it easier to image tumors and organ damage.

10  Yale researchers have created plastic nano spheres that encapsulate proteins called cytokines, which stimulate the immune system’s killer T-cells. An injection of those spheres could help fight disease and infection.

11  And in a University of Southern California lab, nano tubes have been used to create synthetic neurons (pdf).

12  The USC team is trying to assemble these neurons into functional networks, which would bring us closer to assistive brain implants.

13  In 1989, using an atomic force microscope, IBM engineer Don Eigler became the first person to move and control a single atom.

14  Eigler and his team later used 35 xenon atoms to spell out “IBM,” thus performing the world’s smallest PR stunt.

15  Atoms? Big whoop. Researchers at Princeton and U.C. Santa Barbara can control the spin of a single electron, trapping it in a “corral” created by applying voltage to minuscule electrodes.

16  But they’re not playing cowboy. The breakthrough could lead to powerful quantum computers that store and manipulate data in the spin of individual electrons.

17  Not to be outdone, Stanford scientists used scanning tunneling microscopy and holograms to write information within the interference patterns formed by electron waves on a copper sheet. The letters are less than a third the size of Eigler’s “IBM.”

18  Government researchers have created arrays of chromium nanobots that can store magnetic data with unprecedented uniformity. One goal: drawing more complex integrated circuits on silicon chips.

19  For the rodent who has everything. Georgia Tech scientists made piezoelectric generators out of nano wires and attached them to tiny hamster jackets. When the critters ran, the generators created electricity.

20  Zhong Lin Wang, co-inventor of the jacket, envisions a shirt that charges your cell phone as you stroll, or an implanted device for measuring blood pressure that’s powered by your own heartbeat.
