Critical patent awarded in Japan
Malmö, November 27th, 2006 – OBDUCAT AB, the world’s leading provider of
lithography solutions based on Nano Imprint Lithography (NIL) and Electron
Beam Lithography (EBL) has been awarded a patent by the Japanese patent
authority for a critical anti-stick technology forming a central part of
high volume manufacturing based on NIL.
The Obducat anti-stick technology minimises the interaction between
stampers and substrate during the imprint and separation process. An
anti-stick layer is applied to the stamper surface enabling particles and
other contaminants to be repelled, and a speedier separation without
defects. The anti-stick coating ensures high stamp durability and by that
an increased lifetime minimising the stamp related cost of the imprint
process.
‘The anti-stick technology is critical to our high volume manufacturing
solutions since it improves durability and extends the stamp lifetime,
resulting in reduced overall costs for the lithography process. For
customers in the process of planning to start production based on NIL cost
efficiency, in particular, is a key factor. Further patents awarded all
over the world strengthen our uniqueness and ability to compete,’ says
Patrik Lundström, CEO of Obducat AB.
