Summary of the invention
The objective of the invention is to overcome the defective of existing method for making, a kind of expensive specialized equipment that do not need is provided, simple to operate, quick, the polymer plane nano-channel production method that cost of manufacture is cheap.The polymer plane nano-channel production method that the present invention proposes, what adopt is that the ultraviolet photolithographic technology and the chemical wet etching technology of standard combines with a kind of plasma etch process, and plasma etching is to finish on a plasma clean machine cheap, easy and simple to handle, do not need to buy reactive ion etching (the Reactive ion etching of costliness and complicated operation for realization polymkeric substance etching, RIE) or inductively coupled plasma (Inductively coupled plasma, ICP) etching apparatus.
The technical solution used in the present invention is: a kind of polymer plane nano-channel production method, at first measured ultraviolet photolithographic and chemical wet etching technology are produced live width on polymer matrix film be micron-sized metal shadowing figure, utilize a plasma clean machine to carry out the oxygen gas plasma etching then to being exposed to outer polymkeric substance, by setting etching time, just can accurately control the etching depth of polymer nanocomposite raceway groove; Method for making is as follows:
(1) utilize magnetic control platform sputter one layer thickness on polymer matrix film to be about the copper film of 80nm;
(2) utilize sol evenning machine at copper film surface spin coating one deck positive photoresist, and went forward to dry by the fire 1 hour at 55 ℃ hot plate;
(3) utilize the ultraviolet photolithographic machine to resist exposure 30 seconds, be put on 55 ℃ the hot plate back baking after the development once more 1 hour;
(4) be masking layer with the photoresist, utilizing concentration is that 2.5% salpeter solution corrodes being exposed to outer copper film, obtains the copper masking graphics;
(5) photoresist is carried out whole uv-exposure 120 seconds, put into concentration then and be 0.5% sodium hydroxide solution, remove photoresist;
(6) polymer matrix film that will have the copper masking graphics is put into the plasma clean machine, carries out the oxygen gas plasma etching; Wherein, the radio-frequency power of plasma clean machine is set to 60W, and chamber pressure is set to 200Pa, by setting etching time, just can accurately control the etching depth of nano-channel;
(7) utilizing concentration is that 2.5% salpeter solution is removed the copper masking graphics, has just obtained polymer plane nano-channel.
Remarkable result of the present invention is can utilize the logical plasma clean machine of the ultraviolet photolithographic of standard and chemical wet etching technology and a Daepori to match just can realize the making of polymer plane nano-channel, and entire making process is simple, the cycle is short, cost is low.
