Abstract£ºA reactive ion etching (RIE) cleaning the residual resist layer away by O2 was presented in UVª²imprint lithography£®The important etching parameters affecting etching rate and anisotropy£¬such as the flow rate of O2 £¬pressure in reactor£¬rdio feqency(RF) power were investigated£¬and the relationship among these parameters and the etching rate and etching anisotropy was deduced£®The experimental results show that the low etching rate and anisotropy correspond to the low flow rate of the etching gas and low gas pressure£®When the RF power is 200W£¬pressure 0.6 Pa£¬and the flow rate 30 mL/min£¬a stable etching rate(265 nm/min) and a high anisotropy(13) are obtained to perfectly transfer the patterns in UVª²imprint lithography£®
