Abstract
The present invention relates to a nano-imprinting stamp for imprinting nanometer-sized to mm-sized structures, the stamp () having a base part and a first and a second imprinting section (), the first and second imprinting sections having a lithographic pattern () intended for imprinting in a receiving substrate. In a first aspect, the first and the second imprinting sections () are independently displaceable in a direction substantially parallel to an imprinting direction of the imprinting stamp. In a second aspect, the first and the second imprinting sections () are mechanically weakly coupled in a direction substantially parallel to an imprinting direction of the imprinting stamp. The stamp limits the effect of imperfections in or on the substrate to be imprinted with a lithographic pattern () and imperfections in or on the stamp and any combinations of such imperfections by localising the bending of the stamp to the base part () in-between the imprinting sections ().
