Referring to fig. 1, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing an imprint mold, which includes the following steps:
1) Manufacturing a master plate structure, wherein a plurality of first groove structures are formed on the surface of the master plate structure;
2) Manufacturing a transfer printing template based on the master mask structure, wherein a plurality of protruding structures which correspond to the first groove structures one by one are formed on the surface of the transfer printing template;
3) Providing an imprinting mold substrate;
4) Forming an imprinting mold flexible material layer on the surface of the imprinting mold substrate;

6) Solidifying the flexible material layer of the stamping mould;
7) And stripping the transfer printing template to obtain the imprinting mold with the same groove structure as the master mask structure.
In step 1), please refer to step S1 in fig. 1 and fig. 2 to 4, a master structure 10 is manufactured, and a plurality of first groove structures 103 are formed on a surface of the master structure 10.
As an example, making the master structure 10 may comprise the steps of:
1-1) providing a master substrate 101, as shown in fig. 2;
1-2) forming a master flexible material layer 102 on a surface of the master substrate 101, as shown in fig. 3;
1-3) forming a plurality of first groove structures 103 on the surface of the master flexible material layer 102 by using a photolithography process or a machining process, as shown in fig. 4.
By way of example, the master substrate 101 may be a rigid substrate, which may include but is not limited to a glass substrate, or a flexible substrate, which includes but is not limited to a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate, a Polyimide (PI) substrate, a Polycarbonate (PC) substrate, or a Polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) substrate. The thickness of the master substrate 101 may be set according to actual needs, and is not limited herein.
By way of example, the master compliant material layer 102 may comprise a photoresist layer or a UV (ultraviolet) resin layer. The UV resin layer is also referred to as a photosensitive resin layer and an ultraviolet-curable resin layer, and can be used as a sizing material for paint, coating, ink, and the like. UV is an abbreviation for Ultraviolet Rays, English, i.e., Ultraviolet light. The ultraviolet ray is invisible to naked eyes, is a section of electromagnetic radiation except visible light, and has the wavelength ranging from 10nm to 400 nm. The curing principle of the UV resin layer is that a photoinitiator (or photosensitizer) in the UV resin generates active free radicals or cations after absorbing ultraviolet light under the irradiation of ultraviolet rays, and the polymerization, crosslinking and grafting chemical reactions of monomers are initiated, so that the UV resin layer is converted from a liquid state to a solid state within a few seconds.
As an example, the master flexible material layer 102 can be formed on the surface of the master substrate 101 using a spin-on process or a doctor-blade process.
As an example, the step 1-3) of curing the master compliant material layer 102 is further included after forming a plurality of the first groove structures 103 on the surface of the master compliant material layer 102.
