Abstract

The disclosure relates to a method for manufacturing a photoaligning integrated large area metallic stamp, which includes the following steps: making a unit device PLC mold pattern, and molding a unit PLC device pattern through a multistep imprinting method using the PLC mold pattern; heat treating the unit PLC device pattern to minimize scattering loss due to surface roughness; making a groove pattern for supporting an optical fiber; making an integrated PDMS mold for a unit device by aligning the unit PLC device pattern and the groove pattern; and repeatedly replicating the integrated PDMS mold for a unit device to make a large area PDMS pattern, and making a large area stamp through electroforming using the large area PDMS pattern.
