To demonstrate Fano-resonant behavior, a polystyrene microring resonator is nanoimprinted and two waveguide offsets are introduced in the bus waveguide, which provide partial reflection as shown in Fig. 8.22. Its spectrum is plotted in Fig. 8.23 together with the one without waveguide offsets. The slope is enhanced...

One of the most successful lithographic techniques is nanoimprint hthography (NIL), mainly because both its working principle and operation are quite simple (Chou et al, 1996). A schematic diagram of the NIL technique is shown in Fig. 3.22.

To further miniaturize the sensors, nanotechniques such as surface probe microscopy and lithography, lateral force microscopy, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and AFM lithography can be utilized.46 Nanoimprint lithography is a low-cost technique that has been shown to produce patterns on the nanometer scale.98 99...

Unconventional patterning techniques, such as soft lithography (e.g., microcontact printing), nanoimprint lithography, and scanning probe lithography, are increasingly used for the cost-effective fabrication of nanostructures. They are particularly attractive because they can be performed even without cleanroom facilities.
