Abstract
The present invention relates to a micro/nano imprint lithography technique and in particular, to a stamp that is used in an UV-micro/nano imprint lithography process or thermal micro/nano imprint lithography process and a method for fabricating the stamp.The method for fabricating a stamp for micro/nano imprint lithography of the present invention includes i) depositing a thin film of diamond-like carbon on a substrate, ii) applying resist on the diamond-like carbon thin film, iii) patterning the resist, iv) etching the diamond-like carbon thin film by using the resist as a protective layer, and v) removing the resist.
