Introduction
In nanotechnology, stitch-free nanopatterning is crucial for achieving precise and seamless fabrication at the nanoscale. Stitching errors are a common and significant issue in nanolithography. A pattern written by nanolithography is often larger than the size of the write field that can be exposed by the electron or ion beam without moving the stage. Traditional stitching methods frequently introduce imperfections, compromising the integrity and functionality of nanodevices.
By eliminating stitches, nanofabrication processes can maintain uniformity and accuracy, essential for creating intricate structures with minimal defects. This approach ensures optimal performance and reliability in nanotechnological applications, enabling breakthroughs in fields such as electronics, photonics, and optics, where precision is paramount.
