The GL8 CLlV Gen2 is GermanLitho’s latest semi-automatic, full-field, high-resolution UV nanoimprint equipment.
The proprietary CLIV (Contact Litho into Vacuum) technology guarantees the accuracy and replication fidelity of imprinted structures. The GL8 CLIV Gen2 enables semi-automatic imprinting of high resolution (higher than 10nm*) and high-aspect-ratio (greater than 10: 1*) nanostructures on up to 200mm wafers. The equipment supports automatic replication of flexible composite working stamps, allowing high resolution and a long service life, as well as significantly reducing the cost of large-area molds in nanoimprint processes. The GL8 CLIV Gen2 is suitable for R&D and pilot production of DOEs, AR / VR waveguides (including slanted gratings), WGPs, metalenses, biochips, LED PSSs, MLAs and other applications.
