Abstract

One dimensional and two dimensional nano patterns were fabricated on a 4-inch substrate by Laser Interference Lithography (LIL). Mach-Zehnder interferometer was setup to obtain the interference patterns and adjusted the pattern sizes with change of incident angle. We could obtain a periodic structure with a period of 440 nm using 266 nm laser, and demonstrated a pattern size with $293{\pm}25nm$ over a 4-inch substrate.
