在微奈米壓印製程中,傳統的矽模具由於易脆性,已漸漸被淘汰,因此本研究嘗試以鎳金屬取代矽作為壓印模具以解決矽模具易脆裂而使用壽命不長的方法。本研究主要分為兩個部份,首先為以電鑄方式製備具高強度、高使用壽命之鎳/不鏽鋼複合式金屬模具。其次利用鎳金屬模具的表面改質,以提昇模具表面抗沾粘之能力。
本研究首先以具微結構之環氧樹脂(epoxy)為電鑄母模,於商用無電鍍鎳鍍液中反應鍍析15分鐘,可在環氧樹脂基板上製備厚度約950nm之無針孔無裂痕之電鑄晶種層。而此一電鑄晶種層經成份與結構分析後為含磷量10at%之微晶與非晶質共存(amorphous-like structure)之鎳磷合金,其後以電鑄法將鎳金屬模具結合在不鏽鋼板上,製備一高穩定性的鎳/不鏽鋼金屬模具。傳統的電鑄方式以直流電源進行電鑄,常會產生氫氣析出在電鑄基板表面,導致鎳模具無法與不鏽鋼板接合,本實驗中利用週期反向電流(periodic reverse current)進行電鑄,可有效消除氫氣造成的表面極化現象。實驗結果顯示,具不鏽鋼背板穩定後之鎳金屬模具進行壓印測試,大面積圖形轉印效果較諸薄片狀鎳金屬模具有顯著提昇,顯示塊材狀複合式金屬模具具有高平整性於熱壓印製程具有應力分佈平均等特點。
在金屬模具的表面改質上,利用溼式氧化處理於鎳金屬模具表面生成氧化層,並利用氧化物表面所帶之氫氧基,與有機分子螯合劑進行自身組裝反應,實驗中選擇的的螯合劑為十八烷基三氯矽烷。經氧化處理完之鎳金屬模具表面經X光光電子能譜儀表面鍵結分析(XPS),發現模具表面產生氧1s軌域之鍵結,而經自身組裝後,表面具有碳1s軌域之鍵結。而與水接觸角由50o提昇至100o上下,由此疏水表面反應出表面抗沾黏性質明顯上昇。在本研究中,以電鑄法製備最小線寬200nm的鎳金屬模式,以壓克力型(PMMA)阻劑進行熱壓印試驗,成功轉印出具200nm奈米線寬的奈米光柵與光子晶體結構圖型。經三十次重覆壓印後,表面與水接觸角並無明顯下降。說明了結合電鑄法及適當表面改質,製備奈米線寬鎳模具,具有實際應用潛力。
For imprinting lithography in the past, the commonly used silicon mold has caused major concern due to its fragility. A metallic mold may replace the Si mold to solve the problem of being too brittle to endure the cyclic imprinting process. Thus, the two objectives of this work are (1) to fabricate a nickel mold for imprinting processes using electroforming technique (2) to improve anti-adhesive property of Ni-mold surface using wet-chemical process.
The electroless plating was adopted for the preparation of seed layer of electroformed Ni on the patterned epoxy template. The electroless plated seed layer was found to be Ni-P alloy containing 10at% P. In the subsequent electroforming process, the formation of hydrogen bubbles was observed when the constant current was applied. However, the formation of hydrogen bubbles may be suppressed when the current was applied in a square wave function. Using a perforated stainless steel board (~1mm thick) as a support, electroformed Ni mold was well bonded to the stainless steel. The nano patterns with feature size around 200nm was also successfully duplicated using an electroformed Ni mold.
In order to improve anti-adhesive nature of Ni mold, oxidation of Ni-mold surface was carefully controlled. The result shows that the oxidation of Ni-P seed layer gives a uniform and continuous oxide film. Such an oxide film provides hydroxyl to form chemical bonding with Octadecyltrichlorosilane for mold releasing. Consequently, the contact angle of oxidized and treated electroformed Ni mold increased from 50o to 100o. After 30 repeated imprinting tests, no significant change in contact angle was observed. The feasibility of using electroformed Ni mold for imprinting application was successfully demonstrated.
