Abstract

In this study, multi-beam surface plasmon (SP) interference lithography was theoretically proposed and demonstrated to fabricate periodic two-dimensional sub-wavelength structures. The lithography structures were based on an attenuated total reflection prism used to excite the SPs using a 442 nm laser. Circular lattices with periods of 166 and 288 nm were successfully obtained via three- and six-beam SP interference lithography, respectively; these lattices exhibited an identical feature size of 96 nm. Square dot arrays with a 177 nm period and 88.5 nm spot size were obtained by four-beam SP interference lithography. The proposed lithography technology has a simple structure and is economical; further, it may provide an effective method for the fabrication of two-dimensional sub-wavelength structures.
