奈米粒子亦叫超微顆粒,一般是指粒徑在1〜1 0 0奈米 間之粒子,處在原子簇及宏觀物體交界的過渡區域,係一 種典型的介觀系統,具有表面效應、小尺寸效應及宏觀量 子隧道效應。當宏觀物體被細分為奈米粒子後,其光學、 熱學、電學、磁學、力學及化學方面的性質將會有顯著的 改變,可廣泛應用於電子、醫藥、化工、軍事、航空航太 等眾多領域。Nanoparticles are also called ultrafine particles. Generally, they refer to particles with a particle size between 1 and 100 nanometers. They are located in the transition area between the clusters of atoms and macroscopic objects. They are a typical mesoscopic system with surface effects, Small size effect and macro quantum tunnel effect.

奈米粒子之製備方法大致可分為三類,第一類係氣相 凝結法(Gas-Condensation Method),其包括物理氣相沈 積法及化學氣相沈積法,其中,物理氣相沈積法係藉由 熱、電子束、電漿、雷射光束等高密度能量源,將原料於 低壓環境中熔融蒸發,再使其冷凝於低溫基材之表面;化 學氣相沈積法係將反應性氣體通入化學氣相沈積爐中,經 過熱源、電漿區或光源等活化區,使氣體進行反應產生欲 得之元素或化合物奈米粒子;第二類為機械合成法,即以 高能量球磨方式,利用磨球將粗大之原料粉末加以塑性變 形,使原料破裂後再接合,經由不斷的重複同樣的過程直 至達到合金化的目標,並產出奈米尺寸的粒子;第三類為 化學還原法(C h e m i c a 1 R e d u c t i ◦ η M e t h 〇 d ),係將各種具 氧化態之金屬離子之化學溶液,以還原劑將金屬離子還原 1241460 五、發明說明(2) 成零價金屬奈米粒子。 惟,上述方法獲得之奈米粒子,由於係通過隨機成長 之方式獲得,其奈米粒子形狀不確定且難以控制,且其粒 徑亦係隨機分布,無法獲得預定之大小及形狀。 有鑒於此,提供一種大小及形狀可控之奈米粒子之製 備方法實為必要。 【内容】 為解決先前技術之奈米粒子之大小及形狀隨機分布之 問題,本發明之目的係提供一種大小及形狀可控之奈米粒 子之製備方法。 為實現本發明之目的,本發明提供一種奈米粒子之製 備方法,其包括下列步驟:提供一基底;於該基底上形成 一犧牲層;於該犧牲層上形成一欲製備成奈米粒子之材質 層;於該材質層上形成一光阻劑層;將所需之奈米圖樣轉 印於光阻劑層;將材質層蝕刻出所需之奈米圖樣;除去光 阻劑層及犧牲層,過渡出奈米粒子。 相較於先前技術,本發明係利用深次微米微影蝕刻技 術製備奈米粒子,由於該方法所獲得之奈米粒子係由微影 蝕刻所控制,故可確保該奈米粒子具有預定之形狀及大 小,且其形狀及大小之單一性亦非常高。 【實施方式】 下面結合附圖對本發明作進一步詳細說明。 請先參閱第一圖,係本發明之奈米粒子之製備方法流 程圖,其包括以下步驟:步驟11,提供一基底6 ;步驟The preparation methods of nano particles can be roughly divided into three types.

Among them, the physical vapor deposition method With high-density energy sources such as heat, electron beam, plasma, and laser beam, the raw materials are melt-evaporated in a low-pressure environment, and then condensed on the surface of the low-temperature substrate; chemical vapor deposition method Into a chemical vapor deposition furnace, through the heat source, plasma area or light source activation area, the gas is reacted to produce desired element or compound nano particles; the second type is mechanical synthesis, that is, high energy ball milling, The coarse raw material powder is plastically deformed with a grinding ball, and the raw materials are fractured and then joined. The same process is repeated repeatedly until the goal of alloying is achieved, and nano-sized particles are produced; the third type is the chemical reduction method ( C hemica 1 R educti ◦ η M eth 〇), is a chemical solution of various metal ions with oxidation state, reducing metal ions with reducing agents 1241460 V.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention uses deep sub-micron lithographic etching technology to prepare nano particles. Since the nano particles obtained by this method are controlled by lithographic etching, it can ensure that the nano particles have a predetermined shape. And size, and the unity of its shape and size is also very high. [Embodiment] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
