Task of ion track technology[edit]

Ion track technology can fill a niche where conventional microtechnology fails:

  • Mask-less structuring is possible with random pattern governed by probability.[1]
  • The technique is applicable to radiation resistant minerals, glasses and polymers.[2]
  • The resolution limit of the structuring technique is smaller than 8 nanometers.[3]
  • Thin polymer films can be structured directly without any development process.[4]
  • Structural depth can be defined either by the film thickness or by the ion range.[5][6]
  • Aspect ratios depend on material and processing and range between 1 and 104.[2]
  • For narrow tracks it is possible to shape materials at defined cutting angle.[7]
  • The angle of incidence offers two new degrees of freedom in shaping materials.[8]
