摘要

为了开发新的X射线准直器，利用电子束光刻（EBL）技术，结合电镀和湿法化学刻蚀工艺，在悬空的Si

隔膜上制作了大面积、高深宽比、微米周期的Au光栅。调整场拼接区域的曝光剂量解决了大面积的EBL光刻问题；用加强筋结构克服了制作高深宽比、高密度光刻胶模板时线条倒塌问题；通过在Si

隔膜下面保留很薄一层Si（25 nm 厚）和改善显影工艺，克服了厚光刻胶在300 nm 厚的Si

隔膜上显影时，光刻胶的断裂问题。实验结果显示，所制备的2 μm周期、深宽比为5.5，面积为400 μm×1 000 μm 的Au光栅可以对光子能量为8 keV的X射线进行调制。所制备的Au光栅狭缝可以用作线平行X射线断层成像系统的探测器准直器件，或面平行X射线断层成像系统的光源准直器件，提高系统的成像速度。

Abstract

The objective of this study was to develop a new X-ray collimator. Electron beam lithography （EBL） technology was coupled with electroplating and wet chemical etching technology to fabricate gold micron gratings involving a large area and high aspect ratio on a suspended silicon nitride membrane. The exposure dose in the field splicing area was adjusted to solve the large area EBL problem. The grating line collapse in high-aspect ratio and high-density photoresist templates was overcome by using a reinforced structure. The thick photoresist spin-coated fracture on the 300-nm Si

membrane was prevented by keeping an extremely thin layer of silicon （25 nm thick） under the thin Si

membrane； therefore， improving the development process. The results demonstrated that the gold gratings with a 2-μm period， 5.5 aspect ratio， and 400-μm by 1000-μm area can modulate the 8-keV energy X-rays. The fabricated gold gratings can be used as detector collimators in line-parallel X-ray tomography systems or as source collimators in area-parallel X-ray tomography systems to improve the imaging speed.
