Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Advance in materials science has brought various materials with interesting functionality. Microfabrication of thin films is essential to use such materials in real devices. Here, we have developed a versatile process usable to pattern wide varieties of materials without deteriorating their properties. The key is to use a easily-soluble sacrificial layer as a template. After growing a target material, the template layer is removed by a suitable etchant to get a device structure. This method can open a way to fabricate devices with new functionality out of emerging materials.
