A step and repeat UV nanoimprint lithography process on pre-spin coated resist film is demonstrated for patterning a large area with features sizes down to sub-15 nm. The high fidelity between the template and imprinted structures is verified with a difference in their line edge roughness of less than 0.5 nm (3σ deviation value). The imprinted pattern's residual layer is well controlled to allow direct pattern transfer from the resist into functional materials with very high resolution. The process is suitable for fabricating numerous nanodevices.
