US Patent 7713753 Dual-level self-assembled patterning method and apparatus fabricated using the method

A method of fabricating a device includes: providing a substrate having a patterned surface, depositing a first-level self-assembled material on at least a portion of the patterned surface, wherein the position and/or orientation of the first-level self-assembled material is directed by the patterned surface, to form a first nanostructure pattern, and depositing a second-level self-assembled material on at least a portion of the first nanostructure pattern to form an array of nanostructures of the second-level self-assembled material. An apparatus fabricated using the method is also provided.
