| azonenberg | Anyone worked with nearfield optics? | 17:25 |
|---|---|---|
| azonenberg | I want to try making a NFSOM | 17:26 |
| azonenberg | I also think nearfield scanning laser direct write lithography could be fun to play with | 17:26 |
| Sync_ | hmm | 17:26 |
| azonenberg | The theory would be to get deep sub-wavelength spatial resolution | 17:27 |
| azonenberg | by scanning a sub-wavelength aperture across the sample | 17:27 |
| azonenberg | it's slooow, like AFM | 17:27 |
| Sync_ | yeah | 17:27 |
| azonenberg | but i saw references to 50nm spatial imaging resolution for visible light | 17:27 |
| Sync_ | and you need a piezo | 17:27 |
| azonenberg | And that got me thinking, could you run it the other way around | 17:27 |
| azonenberg | and use it for litho | 17:27 |
| Sync_ | yeah I guess it could be hacked into that | 17:31 |
| Sync_ | but I wonder how long it'd take | 17:31 |
| azonenberg | Good question | 17:58 |
| azonenberg | i think e-beam is more practical | 17:58 |
| Sync_ | yes | 18:00 |
| Sync_ | I guess there are other problems to solve before that | 18:02 |
| azonenberg | indeed | 18:31 |
| azonenberg | like my lack of spare time :p | 18:31 |
| Logxen | and our lack of nanobots | 18:39 |
