High‐Throughput Dip‐Pen‐Nanolithography‐Based Fabrication of Si Nanostructures

Si nanostructures: A new method for fabricating large-area Si nanostructures in a high-throughput fashion has been demonstrated. The procedure is based upon dip-pen nanolithography in combination with wet-chemical etching and reactive ion etching. Multipen techniques have been demonstrated for the fabrication of large-area Si nanostructure arrays (see AFM image; dot 1: diameter/height=1460/140 nm; dot 9: diameter/height=385/75 nm).
