Method of manufacturing nanoelectrode lines using nanoimprint lithography process

Abstract

Provided are a method of manufacturing nanoelectrode lines. The method includes the steps of: sequentially forming an insulating layer, a first photoresist layer, and a drop-shaped second photoresist on a substrate; disposing an imprint mold having a plurality of molding patterns over the second photoresist; applying pressure to the mold to allow the second photoresist to flow into the mold patterns; irradiating ultraviolet (UV) light onto the mold to cure the second photoresist; removing the mold from the cured second photoresist and patterning the second photoresist; patterning the first photoresist layer using the patterned second photoresist as a mask; patterning the insulating layer; and forming a metal layer between the patterned insulating layers. In this method, metal electrode lines are formed between insulating layers using an imprint lithography process, so that nanoelectronic devices can be freed from crosstalk between the metal electrode lines.
