Litografía por rayos x: Un haz de rayos X se hace pasar por una máscara para sensibilizar selectivamente la fotorresistencia. Al igual que la fotolitografía convencional, la litografía con rayos X permite grabar varios patrones de forma simultánea. Además, puesto que la longitud de onda es mucho más pequeña, se consigue también de esta forma una mejor resolución, y por lo tanto unos dispositivos de menor tamaño. 2, record 1, Spanish, - litograf%C3%ADa%20de%20rayos%20X

Lithography can be done either by direct printing on stone or zinc, a process now used especially as a fine arts process; or by indirect printing on an offset press, the dominant and practically the only modern method of planographic printing. This explains why the terms "offset" and "lithography" are so often used interchangeably. 1, record 3, English, - lithography

Nanolithography is the art and science of etching, writing, or printing at the microscopic level, where the dimensions of characters are on the order of nanometres. This includes various methods of modifying semiconductor chips at the atomic level for the purpose of fabricating integrated circuits (ICs). Instruments used in nanolithography include the scanning tunnelling microscope (STM) and the atomic force microscope (AFM). Both allow surface viewing in fine detail without necessarily modifying it. Either the STM or the AFM can be used to etch, write, or print on a surface in single-atom dimensions. 4, record 4, English, - nanolithography

La nanolithographie permet de fabriquer des circuits électroniques extrêmement denses et d'augmenter ainsi la vitesse de calcul des microprocesseurs et la capacité des mémoires. Alors que les procédés de microlithographie utilisent la lumière visible ou ultraviolette pour projeter l'image du circuit sur le substrat à graver (silicium), la nanolithographie fait appel à un rayonnement de longueur d'onde plus courte (rayons X) ou à un faisceau d'électrons. 3, record 4, French, - nanolithographie

Dip Pen Nanolithography (DPN) is a scanning probe lithography technique where an atomic force microscope tip is used to transfer molecules to a surface via a solvent meniscus.

Meniscus, plural: menisci, from the Greek for "crescent," is a curve in the surface of a molecular substance and is produced in response to the surface of the container or another object. It can be either concave or convex. A convex meniscus occurs when the molecules have a stronger attraction to each other than to the container. 3, record 5, English, - dip%20pen%20nanolithography

La técnica consiste en cubrir la oblea sobre la que se quiere trabajar con una película sensible a los electrones. Mediante una fuente de electrones se "dibuja" sobre la película la plantilla que se pretende crear. La zona bombardeada con electrones sufre ciertos cambios estructurales. Posteriormente se somete el conjunto a la acción de una solución líquida que o bien disolverá la película protectora sólo en la zona expuesta a los electrones (litografía positiva) o bien la no expuesta (litografía negativa), dejando al descubierto la oblea sólo en las zonas que nos interesan para su posterior procesado. 2, record 6, Spanish, - litograf%C3%ADa%20por%20haz%20de%20electrones
