- FIGs. 1-4 show one method of manufacturing a fine pitch wire grid polarizer.
- a wire grid polarizer 10, shown in FIG. 1 having an array of parallel, elongated wires 12 disposed on a substrate 11 , can have a protective layer 21-22 disposed at a surface of the wires 12, as shown in FIG. 2.
- the protective layer 21-22 can be disposed at a top surface 22 of the wires 12 and also at sides 21 of the wires 12.
- the protective layer 21-22 can be formed by passivation of the wires 12, and thus can be embedded in the wires 12.
- the purpose of the protective layer 21-22 is to make surfaces of the wires more etch resistant than central portions of the wires.
- the second step 30, shown in FIG. 3, is to anisotropically etch the wire grid polarizer to form two parallel, elongated rods 32 substantially located at corners 24a- b where the wires contacted the substrate 1 1.
- the anisotropic etch can preferentially remove wires at a central portion 25 of the wire 12, thus exposing the substrate 34 in the location of the former center 25 of the wire 12 while leaving wire material at corners 24a-b.
- the central portion 25 is preferentially removed because the protective layer 21-22 can be more resistant to the anisotropic etch than the wire 12 itself and thus after etching through the protective layer 22 on top of the wire, the anisotropic etch proceeds rapidly through the central portion 25 of the wire down to the substrate 34 while the side portions 26 of the wire etch more slowly due to the etch resistant protective layer 21.
- the original wire is essentially cut in half, forming two rods 32 in place of the original wire 12.
- an alternative added step prior to the anisotropic etch is to ion mill the top of the wires 12, thus partially or totally removing the protective layer 22 prior to the anisotropic etch.
- the two rods 32 can each be polarizing elements.
- the wire grid polarizer can now have twice as many polarizing elements as before this step 30.
- rod group 32a was formed of one original wire 12a and rod group 32b was formed of another original wire 12b.
- Wire grid polarizers without the fine pitch method 30 described above, have been made by standard lithography and etching methods with pitches of around 100 - 150 nanometers and wire widths of around 50 - 75 nanometers. Thus, this method essentially cuts the pitch in half, allowing formation of wire grid polarizers by this method with pitches of around 50 - 75 nanometers and wire widths of around 25 - 38 nanometers, even with present lithography and etching methods.
- An added step 40, shown in FIG. 4, that may be useful for some wire grid polarizer applications is to apply a segmented coating 42 on top of the rods 32.
- the segmented coating 42 can be aligned with the rods 32 and can continue partially down both sides 43 of the rods 32 without coating the substrate 44 exposed between the rods 32.
- This segmented coating may be applied by methods described in USA Patent Application Numbers 12/507,570, filed on July 22, 2009 and 13/075,470, filed on March 30, 2011 , incorporated herein by reference.
- a polarizer 50 includes a substrate 11 which can be transmissive of the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation used.
- germanium could be used in the infrared, silicon in the visible, and quartz in the ultraviolet.
- a repeated pattern of groups 53 of parallel elongated wires 52 may be disposed on the substrate.
- the wires 52 may comprise a material that can polarize the incident electromagnetic radiation.
- Each group 53 of elongated wires 52 can comprise at least three wires.
- Each group can include one or more interior wires 52c, such as one or more center wires, and outermost wires 52o.
- the interior or center wires 52c can be taller than the outermost wires 52o, such as by more than 3 nm in one aspect, more than about 10 nm in another aspect, more than about 20 nm in another aspect, or more than about 50 nm in another aspect.
- the distance between the outermost wires 52o, and thus the width d3 of each group 53 can be less than 1 micrometer in one aspect, less than about 150 nm in another aspect, less than about 100 nm in another aspect or less than about 50 nm in another aspect.
- the wires 52 can be a byproduct of an etch reaction, which material can be beneficial for some applications.
- the width d3 of each group 53 can be a resist width as will be described below, thus multiple wires can be formed for a single resist width, thus allowing manufacture of a wire grid polarizer having very fine pitch.
- Shown in FIG. 5 are two groups of wires 53a and 53b, each group having four wires.
- Two wires 52c at the center of each group 53 can be approximately equal in height and both can be taller than the outermost wires 52o of each group, such that hi ⁇ h2.
- Center wires 52c of a group of wires 53 can be higher h2 than the height hi of outer wires 52o in a group because center wires 52c can be formed first during initial isotropic etch(es).
- Having wires of different heights h can allow tuning the polarizer for different wavelengths and allow for smoothing out the s-polarization orientation of transmitted electromagnetic radiation over the spectrum of incident of electromagnetic radiation, or the Ts curve. Having some of the wires higher can increase polarizer contrast while having other wires shorter can improve
- a difference in height between the center wires 52c and the outer wires 52o can be between about 0 nm to about 150 nm, more than about 3 nm in one aspect, more than about 20 nm in another aspect, or more than about 50 nm in another aspect, depending on the strength, duration, and type of etch, the height of wires created, and whether the wires were planarized.
- Wire width w may be determined by the type of etch during creation of that wire 52, thin film material and / or substrate material, and whether adjacent wires combine to form a single wire as described below in the description of FIG. 1 1.
- a maximum wire width of all wires 52 in the polarizer 10 can be less than about 150 nm in one aspect, less than about 50 nm in another aspect, less than about 20 nm in another aspect, or less than about 10 nm in another aspect.
- a wire width w of one wire may differ from a wire width w of an adjacent wire by more than 5 nm in one aspect, more than 10 nm in another aspect, more than 20 nm in another aspect, or more than 50 nm in another aspect.
- the distance between wires d in the groups of wires 53 can vary depending on the width of the resist and the nature and length of the etches. For example, a more lateral or stronger initial isotropic etch can result in a smaller distance d2, shown in FIG. 5, between the center wires 52c in a group 53.
- a distance d1 between a center wire 52c and an outer wire 52o depends on the resist width R, as shown in FIG. 6, the distance d2 between the center wires 52c, and the wire width w.
- the distance d2 between the center wires 52c can be different from the distance d1 between an outermost wire and an adjacent center wire by more than about 3 nm in one aspect,.
- the absolute value of d2 minus d1 can be more than about 3 nm in one aspect, more than about 10 nm in another aspect, or more than about 20 nm in another aspect.
- a minimum distance d between adjacent wires can be less than about 150 nm in one aspect, less than about 50 nm in another aspect, or less than about 20 nm in another aspect.
- pitch P is a distance between an edge of one wire and a corresponding edge of an adjacent wire.
- a minimum pitch of adjacent wires can be less than about 300 nm in one aspect, less than about 100 nm in another aspect, less than about 50 nm in another aspect, less than about 30 nm in another aspect, or less than about 20 nm in another aspect.
- the pitch of the wires can thus be much smaller than, even approximately one fourth the pitch of, the pitch of the resist.
- a distance d4 between adjacent groups 53 can be determined a distance d5 (see FIG. 6) between adjacent resist 61 and the width w of outermost wires 52o in a group. This distance d4 may be modified for tuning of the polarizer for desired wavelengths.
- a polarizer of the present invention can be made by disposing a resist 61 on a base 63.
- the base 63 can comprise a single material or can be layers of multiple materials.
- the base 63 can comprise a thin film layer 62 disposed on a substrate 1 1 .
- the thin film 62 may be applied on the substrate 1 1 by methods such as chemical vapor deposition or physical vapor deposition.
- the thin film may be a single layer of one material or may be multiple layers of different materials.
- the substrate 1 1 can be a rigid material such as quartz, silicon, or germanium.
- the substrate 1 1 can also be a flexible material such as a polymer.
- the resist 61 may be patterned, providing resist widths R.
- the resist widths R can be less than about 1 micrometer in one aspect, less than about 100 nanometers in another aspect, less than about 75 nanometers in another aspect, or less than about 55 nanometers in another aspect.
- the resist width R can be the approximate distance d3 between outermost wires 52c in a group.
- an isotropic etch may then be performed, etching both vertically 71 into the base 63 laterally outside the resist and horizontally 72 under the resist leaving a stem 73, having vertical sidewalls, under the resist 61 .
- the aforementioned isotropic etch, or a subsequent isotropic etch can be optimized for etch redeposition by etch chemistry, thus allowing etch redeposition along vertical sidewalls of the stem 73 creating etch redeposition wires 74.
- the etch redeposition wires 74 can be polarizing wires and thus polarizing wires may be formed as a byproduct of an etch reaction.
- an anisotropic etch can then be performed, etching vertically 71 into the base 63 outside the resist leaving a bottom step 83, having vertical sidewalls, in the base 63.
- the aforementioned anisotropic etch, or a subsequent anisotropic etch can be optimized for etch redeposition, thus allowing etch redeposition to occur along the vertical sidewalls of the bottom step and creating additional etch redeposition wires 84.
- etch redeposition wires 74 & 84 can be comprised of a material such as metal oxide, metal alloy, metal halide, metal carbide, and organometal, or combinations thereof. Multiple isotropic etches before an anisotropic etch, with each subsequent isotropic etch being less isotropic in nature than the previous isotropic etch, can result in more than four wires for every resist width R.
- the anisotropic etch may continue, remove the resist, etch the base 63 between 91 the wires and substantially or totally remove the base 63 between 101 etch redeposition wires 74 & 84, and leave at least four separate etch redeposition wires 74 and 84 for every original resist width R.
- a group of wires can have three wires comprising a center wire 112c and outer wires 112o. The method of making this structure is similar to that described above except that the stem 73 can be smaller than if two center wires are desired.
- the stem 73 can be substantially or completely etched away leaving a single center wire 112c rather than two center wires 52c as shown in FIG. 5.
- the single center wire 112c can be higher than outer wires 112o or can be approximately the same height as outer wires as was described above for the structure with at least four wires. If the center wires converge, and multiple isotropic etches are performed prior to the anisotropic etch, then there may be a structure with an odd number of at least five wires in each group.
- a structure with a single wire at the center of each group may be beneficial if it is desired to have a large difference between widths of wires in a group.
- a width w1 of the center wire 72c can be substantially wider than a width w2 of an outer wire 72o of a group.
- a multi-step, nanometer sized device or polarizer 120 includes a base 121 with a plurality of parallel multi-step ribs 122 disposed on the base 121.
- the term polarizer will hereafter be used, instead of nanometer sized device, because polarizer is the most typical application, but the device 120 can be used for other applications.
- Each rib 122 comprises multiple adjacent steps S of different heights h or disposed at different elevational heights.
- Each rib 122 includes an upper step S1 with a top horizontal surface H1 flanked by upper vertical surfaces V1. It will be appreciated that the terms horizontal and vertical are relative to the orientation of the device as shown in the figures, and that the device can be oriented at various different angles.
- Each rib also includes at least one lower step or pair of steps (with one step on either side of the upper step) having two horizontal surfaces, each flanked by a vertical surface for that step and by a vertical surface of an adjacent step.
- steps or pairs of steps are formed on both sides of the upper step, forming a cross-sectional stepped pyramid shape.
- the device in FIG. 12 shows two lower steps S2 and S3.
- Intermediate step S2 includes intermediate horizontal surfaces H2 and intermediate vertical surfaces V2. Intermediate horizontal surfaces H2 flank the upper vertical surfaces V1 and intermediate vertical surfaces V2.
- Lower step S3 includes lower horizontal surfaces H3 and lower vertical surfaces V3. Lower horizontal surfaces H3 flank the intermediate vertical surfaces V2 and lower vertical surfaces V3.
- the ribs can have more or less than two lower steps.
- Each step S includes a coating C along the vertical surfaces V of the step S.
- the coating C along the vertical surface V of any step S can be separate from the coating C along a vertical surface V of an adjacent (upper or lower) step S, such as by the intervening horizontal surface H.
- a width or length HL of a horizontal surface H thereof can be greater than a thickness of the coating C.
- FIG. 12 there is no continuity of coating between the steps such that the coating C1 of the upper step S1 is physically separate from the coating C2 of the intermediate step S2 and the coating C2 of the intermediate step S2 is physically separate from the coating C3 of the lower step S3.
- the coatings C can form pairs of coatings or coating pairs at different elevational heights, such as an upper coating pair C1 , and at least one lower coating pair, such as intermediate coating pair C2 and lower coating pair C3. If the device is used as a polarizer, and a coating C is selected that will polarize the wavelength of interest, then the coating C may be considered to be a polarizing coating rib. Thus, the coating may be a conductive coating and can define wires.
- the upper and lower steps can be at different elevational heights h defining a cross-sectional stepped pyramid shape.
- the elevational heights are not equal such that hi ⁇ h2 ⁇ h3 and hi > h2 > h3.

- the coatings C can have very small widths CW.
- the width of the coating can be less than about 30 nm in one aspect, less than about 10 nm in another aspect, or less than about 5 nm in another aspect.
- the coating width can be selected or tuned based on the anticipated wavelength of the electromagnetic radiation and/or desired performance characteristics. Very narrow coating widths can be sustained by the structural support of the rib or steps thereof.

- the horizontal length of the widest step or outside width of the lowermost pair of steps, shown as SL1 in FIG. 14, can be approximately the width (see RW in FIG. 18) of the resist feature used to form the step S.
- Resist features for presently manufactured wire grid polarizers for visible light typically have a width of about 50 - 100 nm.
- the outside width SL1 and thus a distance between the outermost coatings on a step, can be less than about 100 nm in one aspect, less than about 75 nm in another aspect, less than about 50 nm in another aspect, or 50 - 100 nm in another aspect.

- the horizontal length of steps may be adjusted in order to optimize polarization of the desired wavelengths.
- FIGs. 12 & 13 have a step with the longest step length SL as the lowest step or the step closest to the base.
- a step, of a device 120c or rib 122c, with the longest step length SL3 can be an intermediate step and a step with a shorter step length SL5 can be the lowest step or the step closest to the base.
- the steps need not form a pyramid shape but rather the steps in the ribs can become wider or narrower moving from the outermost rib towards the base.
- the upper step can have the shortest step length or another step can have the shortest step length depending on the isotropic nature of each successive etch as described below. This embodiment may be useful for optimizing polarization of certain selected wavelengths.
- wires 173 of polarizer 120d may be disposed on the base 121 , physically separate from the multi-step ribs 122, substantially parallel with the multi-step ribs 122, and located between adjacent multi-step ribs 122.
- Coating C can be a dielectric or metal.
- Wires 173 can be dielectric or metal.
- Wires 173 can be a different material than coating C. This allows use of polarizing ribs made of different materials. This can be beneficial for tuning the polarizer to multiple different wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation.
- a base 121 can be prepared with either a single material or with layers of different materials.
- FIG. 13 shows a base 121 comprised of a substrate 131 and a thin film 132.
- the ribs 122 can be the same material as the base 121 , the same material as the substrate 131 , the same material as the thin film 132, or a different material than the base, substrate, or thin film.
- the ribs 122 can be made of layers.
- Each layer can be the same material as another layer or can be a different material than another layer or layers.
- Each step S can be a different material than another step S.
- a single step S can be made of multiple layers of different materials. Layers of different materials can be formed by applying thin films on a substrate through processes such as chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or physical vapor deposition (PVD).
- CVD chemical vapor deposition
- PVD physical vapor deposition
- the ribs 122 can be formed by depositing a material on a base 121 or by ion milling into the base 121 .
- the ribs 122 may also be formed in the base 121 by etching the base as shown in FIGs. 18 - 21 .
- the term "base" can include a single material or layers of multiple materials.
- a resist 181 may be applied to the base .121 and the resist 181 may be patterned to create resist widths RW, as shown in FIG. 18. As shown in FIG. 19, an isotropic etch can etch both vertically into the base laterally outside the resist 192 and horizontally under the resist 191 .
- At least one additional isotropic etch that is more or less isotropic than the previous isotropic etch, may be performed.
- a second isotropic etch which is less isotropic in nature than that shown in FIG. 19, is performed to etch both vertically into the base laterally outside the resist 192 and horizontally under the resist 191 .
- Each successive etch that that is either more or less isotropic than the previous etch can result in formation of an additional step.
- an anisotropic etch may be used to etch into the base laterally outside the resist 192 and to remove the resist 181.
- anisotropic etch can be used to create a step having a step length SL that is about the same as the width of the resist RW.
- Step horizontal length HL and step vertical length VL can be controlled during step formation by the nature of the isotropic etches performed. A more isotropic etch can create a longer horizontal length HL for a step. A longer etch time can create a longer vertical step length VL.
- the resist can be removed and the surface of the structure may be coated with a coating C, as shown in FIG. 22.
- the coating may be conformal, non-conformal, segmented, atomic layer deposition, spin on, or etch redeposition.
- the coating may then be anisotropically etched to substantially remove the coating from horizontal surfaces while leaving a majority of the coating on vertical surfaces.
- the coating is removed from horizontal surfaces in the anisotropic etch, while leaving a substantial portion of the coating on the vertical surfaces, because a thickness of the coating 222 on the horizontal surfaces, in a direction perpendicular to the main plane of the base, as shown by dashed line P, is less than a thickness of the coating 221 on the vertical surfaces, along this same direction P.
- additional isotropic etches 161 and 162 may be performed.
- Various combinations of isotropic and anisotropic etches may be performed to create ribs of various shapes.
- a coating is applied and etched as described above. Etching of the coating can also remove coating along horizontal surfaces 163 that are between the multi-step rib 122c and the base 121 by use of a high bias etch.
- FIGs. 23-26 show how to make the polarizer 120d of FIG. 17, which includes additional wires 173 in addition to coating C on multi-step ribs 122.
- a thin first layer 171 can be disposed on a base 121.
- the material of this first layer 171 can be the desired material of the final wires 173, such as metal for example.
- a second layer can be applied over the first layer 171 .
- the second layer can be the desired material of the multi-stepped ribs 122, such as an oxide or dielectric for example.
- Multi-stepped rib structures 122 can then be formed as described above.
- the thickness of the second layer and the duration of the isotropic etch can be timed such that the etch steps forming the multi-stepped ribs 122 end the surface of the first layer 171 .
- the final anisotropic step can be shortened in time in order to form a small final step.
- a length of the vertical surface of the upper two steps VL1 and VL2 are significantly longer than a length of the vertical surface VL3 of the lowest step.
- a thickness of the coating in a direction perpendicular P to the base is much smaller along the vertical surface of the lowest step than along the vertical surface of upper steps.
- a coating C can then be applied as described above. As shown in FIG. 24, the coating C thickness along a vertical surface of an upper step 241 can be much longer than the coating thickness along a vertical surface of the lowest step 242. The coating thickness along the lowest step 242 is not very much thicker than the thickness along a horizontal portion of the structure 243.
- An anisotropic etch may be performed to remove coating from horizontal surfaces and from the lowest step vertical surface 252. Due to the relatively smaller thickness of coating 242 along the vertical surface of the lowest step, as shown in FIG. 25, the coating can be substantially removed from the vertical surface of this step 252 during this anisotropic etch of the coating while leaving the coating on the vertical surfaces of the upper steps 251 .
- An anisotropic etch which is optimized for etch redeposition, may then be performed.
- the coating C, the second layer or rib 122 material, and the etch must be selected such that primarily the first layer 171 will be etched with minimal etching of the coating C or the ribs 122.
- the etch can be optimized for etch redeposition by etch chemistry.
- the anisotropic etch will etch into the first layer 171 and can result in formation of etch redeposition wires 173.
- the anisotropic etch can continue and thus remove the first layer 171 between 175 the etch redeposition wires 173 and the multi-step ribs 122, as shown in FIG. 17.
- the anisotropic etch may continue to etch into the base between the ribs 174.
- the base 121 may thus be etched between 174 the wires 173 and the multi-step ribs 122 to a depth of at least 1 nm.
