Abstract:
A novel direct-write approach is presented, which relies on area-selective atomic layer deposition on seed layer patterns deposited by electron beam induced deposition. The method enables the nanopatterning of high-quality material with a lateral resolution of only ∼10 nm. Direct-write ALD is a viable alternative to lithography-based patterning with a better compatibility with sensitive nanomaterials.
