Abstract

A novel method to prepare nanometer-size patterns by using currently available massproduction technology is proposed. In this study, a contact pattern-mask with nanometersize slit is fabricated by combination of photolithography and anodic oxidation of metal. The slit width of the pattern-mask can be controlled in the order of nano-meters by anodic voltage during oxidation of side-wall of the metal. 10nm width trench is formed in Si substrate by using such nanometer slit-mask. It is suggested that the technique can be utilized as fabrication process of the nano-scale devices.
