Abstract (en)

Fabrication of electronic, photonic and meta-material-based devices, or tissue engineering requires the controlled deposition and patterning of materials. Electron-beam lithography (EBL) offers unprecedented miniaturization of those devices due to its high resolution. We present a concept to induce a classic photochemical reaction in condensed matter via electron-beam lithography. We investigate the response of a tetrameric cinnamate monomer in thin films towards photo- and electron-radiation. In the solid state, photoexcitation and electron bombardment similarly induce [2+2]-cycloadditions forming insoluble truxilic acid esters, as shown via IR spectroscopy measurements. Subsequently, we employed the investigated material as an electron beam resist, showing resistance against wet-chemical etchants. Structures with resolution down to 60 nm were obtained, not achievable with conventional photolithography, proving that the [2+2] cycloaddition of cinnamic acid containing compounds is suitable for applications in the field of electron beam lithography.
