Overview of the fabrication procedures. (a) Schematic illustration of greyscale electron beam lithography (GS-EBL) for the HSQ-KZP lens as an example. (b) The calculated dose gradient pattern for the HSQ-KZP lens by GS-EBL. (c) Dose distribution curves for the HSQ-KZP in which the greyscale proximity effect correction (GS-PEC) was applied. (d) Micrographs by SEM of the cross-sectional view at a tilt of 45° for the fabricated KZP lenses in HSQ. (e) The whole fabricated HSQ-KZP lens. (f) Close-up view at a tilt of 75° of the replicated HSQ-KZP zones. (g) Cross-sectional view at a tilt of 45° of the PMMA-KZP lens. |
