ABSTRACT: Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) has the potential for low-cost andhigh-throughput nanoscale fabrication. However, the NIL quality and resolution areusually limited by the shape and size of the nanoimprint stamp features. Atomiclayer etching (ALE) can provide a damage-free pattern transfer with ultimate etchcontrol for features of all length scales, down to the atomic scale, and for all fea
