摘要
Direct nanolithography using a contact-mode scanning probe microscope for polysilane films has been studied as a function of humidity to investigate its mechanism. The result indicates the electrochemical reaction with moisture dominates the abscission of fragments of polysilanes. Carbon nanotube tips enable us to form grooves with the line width of 50nm in the polysilane films at 20% humidity. These fine patterns are transferred onto a Si substrate by chemical etching without the considerable degradation of the groove width. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
