摘要
We describe tests of a technique to fabricate nanostructures by the evaporation of metal through a stencil mask etched in a suspended silicon nitride membrane. Collimated evaporation through the mask gives metal dots less than 15 nm in diameter and lines 15-20 nm wide. We have investigated the extent of hole clogging and the factors which determine the ultimate resolution of the technique. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics. [S0003- 6951(99)00437-4].
