Nanoimprint Technology / Microsystem and Nanotechnology Series (ePub)

Nanoscale pattern transfer technology using molds is a rapidly
advancing area and one that has seen much recent attention due to
its potential for use in nanotechnology industries and
applications. However, because of these rapid advances, it can be
difficult to keep up with the technological trends and the latest
cutting-edge methods. In order to fully understand these pioneering
technologies, a comprehensive understanding of the basic science
and an overview of the techniques are required.

Nanoimprint Technology: Nanotransfer for Thermoplastic and
Photocurable Polymers covers the latest nanotransfer science
based on polymer behaviour. Polymer fluid dynamics are described in
detail, and injection moulding, nanoimprint lithography and micro
contact printing are also discussed. Cutting-edge nanotransfer
technologies and applications are also considered and future trends
in industry are examined.

Key features:

* Covers the fundamentals of nanoimprint technology

* Presents cutting-edge techniques and applications

* Provides industrial examples and describes the mold
fabrication process

* Considers nanotransfer of thermoplastics by
simulation

* Describes the design and evaluation of UV curable
polymer

Nanoimprint Technology: Nanotransfer for Thermoplastic and
Photocurable Polymers is a comprehensive reference for industry
engineers as well as graduate and undergraduate students, and is a
useful source of information for anyone looking to improve their
understanding of nanotransfer mechanisms and methods.
