“…Direct imprinting of titanium using ultra-nanocrystalline diamond stamps is presented by Greer et al [204]. They used an anodization step to lower the required imprint force and can use a roller-type of imprinting process to pattern a titanium rod.…”

Biomimetic micro- and nano- structures have attracted considerable interest over the last decades for various applications ranging from optics to life sciences. The complex nature of the structures, however, presents significant challenges for fabrication and their application in real-life settings. Nanoimprint lithography could provide an interesting opportunity in this respect. This article seeks to provide an overview of what has already been achieved using nanoscale replication technologies in the field of biomimetics and will aim to highlight opportunities and challenges for nanoimprinting in this respect in order to inspire new research.

“…Greer et al performed the direct NIL to construct nanostructures on Ti surface using a diamond stamp [15,16]. Ti was widely adopted in biomedical applications such dental and orthopaedic implants [15][16][17]. The surface features of the Ti-based implants would influence the cell adhesion property.…”

“…Metal gratings are useful in applications such as flexible sensors, solar cells, batteries, reflective polarizers, and displays 1 – 4 , so fabricating metal gratings is an important issue. Fine metal grating structures were initially fabricated by direct nanoimprint lithography (NIL) at ultra-high pressure and high temperature 5 – 7 . The direct NIL of metal gratings is possible in some cases, but the ultra-high pressure and high temperature conditions can damage the underlying substrate or device 8 .…”

During the fabrication of metal/polymer bilayer gratings by nanoimprint lithography, adhesion and friction forces at the interfaces can deform and damage the transferred pattern of the bilayer grating during the demoulding process. To improve the quality of bilayer gratings, the effects of the aspect ratio and metal layer thickness on deformation and stress during the demoulding process in the nanoimprinting of bilayer gratings were investigated. This information was used to determine the optimal grating parameters. The results for the von Mises stress and deformation of bilayer gratings are discussed in detail. The effects of the aspect ratio and metal layer thickness on the grating quality are then considered.
