壓印技術是一種快速成形之技術,廣泛應用於工業元件的製程,常見的壓印技術包括利用一種可撓性高分子材料聚二甲基矽氧烷(Polydimethylsiloxane,PDMS)當作模仁,對塗佈在透光性基板表面之高分子光阻進行壓印,以產生特定形狀之光學元件。Imprint technology is a rapid prototyping technology widely used in the process of industrial components. Common imprinting techniques include the use of a flexible polymer material, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), as a mold. The polymer photoresist coated on the surface of the light-transmitting substrate is embossed to produce an optical element of a specific shape.
請參閱圖一所示,其係為傳統之壓印技術示意圖,圖中包括一模仁10以及一基板12。該模仁10表面設有一層圖案14,基板12表面係塗佈有一層光固化光阻16,在壓印的過程中,係利用模仁10之圖案14壓印於光阻16,之後再照射紫外線(UV)固化光源使光阻16固化,以產生特定形狀之光學元件。Referring to FIG. 1 , it is a schematic diagram of a conventional imprinting technique, which includes a mold core 10 and a substrate 12 .
