Note: The ability to produce large microstructures and nanostructures on non-flat surfaces is important for many applications such as optics, optoelectronics, nano-photonics, imaging technology, NEMS and microfluids. However, it is very difficult to create large nanostructures on curved or non-planar surfaces using existing modeling methods.  

In addition, current types of nanotechnology technologies such as electron beam lithography, optical lithography, interference lithography (IL), etc., can not meet all the application demands of industrial applications in terms of high resolution, high power, low cost. , Large area and olgoes on uneven and curved surface. Therefore, new high-volume nanotechnology technology is in dire need of exploitation and development to meet the tremendous needs of emerging markets. Nanoelectronic lithography is currently considered as a promising low-cost, high-power, high-resolution nano-pattern method, especially for the production of small-scale / large-scale nano-patterns and complex 3D structures. The above aspects have also created proportional features  due to these salient advantages.The conversion of optical structures in combination with the construction of a large area becomes a more effective method in this field.

In general, the electrical, optical, magnetic, surface, etc. properties of these three structures are fundamentally different from each other, and of course their applications are also different. One-dimensional nanostructures can be used for electronic connections, while zero-dimensional and two-dimensional nanomaterials do not. Materials that are nanometer in size in all three dimensions and have no freedom in any dimension. According to some categories, these  nanostructures are also called nanoparticles. Factors affecting the properties of nanoparticles are the size and material of the particles.

Conclusion :

The ability to produce large microstructures and nanostructures on non-planar surfaces is important for many applications such as optics, optoelectronics, nanophotonics, imaging technology, NEMS and microfluids. However, it is very difficult to create large nanostructures on curved or non-planar surfaces using existing modeling methods.
