Dear Sirs, Now I have encountered a difficulty in writing pits in the range of 0.2~0.8 micron in length and 0.25 micron in width along circles (like the pits written on a DVD disc). Do you know a method or a commercial S/W which allows the E-beam lithography to 'write' a tremendous number of data along circular lines. The S/W we used can only generate data along straight lines, we also lack of the means to copy the basic 10 pit patterns to all over a circle. In simple words, we want to 'write' pits with random length of 0.2~0.8 micron and fixed width along a circle. Do you have some idea and suggestions? Thanks and regards Thank you Dr JB Zhang Data Storage Institute National University of Singapore
