SURFACE RELIEF MICROSTRUCTURE, RELATED DEVICES, AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for replicating a patterned surface relief microstructure.SOLUTION: A method for replicating a patterned surface relief microstructure includes steps of; generating a first layer with a patterned surface relief microstructure; and generating a master by copying the microstructure of the first layer into a second layer, thereby involving at least one dry or wet etching step, and an additional step in which the microstructure of the master is brought into contact with a replica material such that the microstructure of the master is reproduced in the replica.
