    Abstract

    A novel photolithographic technique using a periodic hexagonal close packed silver nanoparticle 2D array photo mask has been demonstrated to transfer a nano-pattern into a photoresist using I line proximity photolithography. A 30 nm hexagonal close packed silver nanoparticle 2D array pattern with a 50 nm period has been successfully transferred into S1813 photoresist using I-line exposure wavelength. The resultant feature sizes were 34 nm with a period of 46 nm, due to the surface plasmon resonance where the S1813 photoresist feature is approximately 11 times smaller than I-line exposure wavelength.
