Abstract:
An apparatus for manufacturing micro-structures, comprising:a vacuum chamber a substrate holder in the vacuum chamber, the substrate holder supporting a substrate having a plurality of thin films having a prescribed two-dimensional pattern formed on the substrate; a stage disposed facing the substrate holder in the vacuum chamber for supporting a three-dimensional structure formed by laminating the plurality of thin films; a moving device that transfers at least one of the substrate holder and the stage to position the stage successively on the plurality of thin films; and a controller that controls the moving device to separate the plurality of thin films from the substrate, to laminate and bond the plurality of thin films on the stage so as to form a micro-structure, wherein the moving device comprises a moving mechanism for moving relatively the substrate holder and the stage at least in three axial directions.
