A major challenge in constructive nanolithography is the preservation of the lateral resolution of a monolayer-thick template pattern while amplifying it to a structure with a thickness above 10 nm. Our approach of photoinduced, constructive, reversible nanolithography, is based on nanografting within a coumarin-derivative thiol (CDT) solution using the tip of an atomic force microscope (AFM). By photodimerization and the formation of disulfide bonds, the CDT polymerizes in a single-step process. We demonstrate the highest lateral resolution in constructive nanolithography at thicknesses above 10 nm (40nm lateral resolution at 12 nm thickness, aspect ratio: 0.3).
