A method of fabricating nanostructures using macro pre-patterns according to the present invention, which comprises either depositing a target material on a substrate having macro pre-patterns formed thereon, or applying a target material to a substrate and then forming macro pre-patterns on the substrate, and then depositing the target material on the side surface of the macro pre-patterns by an ion bombardment phenomenon occurring during etching, provides a three-dimensional nanostructures with high aspect ratio and uniformity can be fabricated by a simple process at low cost by using the ion bombardment phenomenon occurring during physical ion etching, thereby achieving the high performance of future nano-devices, such as nanosized electronic devices, optical devices, bio devices and energy devices.

Method of fabricating nanostructures using macro pre-patterns

A three-dimensional nanostructures and a method for fabricating the same, and more particularly to three-dimensional structures of various shapes having high aspect ratio and uniformity in large area and a method of fabricating the same by attaching a target material to the outer surface of patterned polymer structures using an ion bombardment phenomenon occurring during a physical ion etching process to form target material-polymer composite structures, and then removing the polymer from the target material-polymer structures. A three-dimensional nanostructures with high aspect ratio and uniformity can be fabricated by a simple process at low cost by using the ion bombardment phenomenon occurring during physical ion etching. Also, nanostructures of various shapes can be easily fabricated by controlling the pattern and shape of polymer structures. In addition, uniform fine nanostructures having a thickness of 10 nm or less can be formed in a large area.
