Abstract
We show the fabrication of gold nanostructures using self-assembled monolayers of aliphatic and aromatic thiols as positive and negative electron beam resists. We applied a simple and versatile proximity printing technique using focused ion beam structured stencil masks and low energy (300 eV) electrons. We also used conventional e-beam lithography with a beam energy of 2.5 keV and doses from 3500 to 80 000 μC/cm2. Gold patterns were generated by wet etching in KCN/KOH and characterized by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The width of the finest lines is ∼20 nm; their edge definition is limited by the isotropic etching process in the polycrystalline gold.
