Abstract

Nanofabrication strategies developed by using electron beam (EB) are described. Ten-nm structures of organic positive and negative resist patterns have been achieved by using a commercially available EB lithography system. As one of the applications of EB nanolithography to nanodevices, an electrically variable shallow junction MOSFET (EJ-MOS) is described. As a novel approach, material-wave nanotechnology using de Broglie wave has been developed. Line and dot patterns with 100-nm periodicity were exposed on a PMMA resist by EB holography with a thermal field-emitter gun and an electron biprism. This technique allows us to produce nanoscale periodic patterns. Furthermore, the possibility of nanostructure fabrication by atomic-beam holography has been demonstrated by using a laser-trap technique and a computer-generated hologram made by EB lithography.
