Abstract:
A method for embossing a nanostructure, formed on a nanostructure punch, into a punch surface of a curable material which has been applied to a substrate. The method includes the following steps, especially following sequence: alignment of the nanostructure relative to the punch surface, embossing of the punch surface by a) prestressing of the nanostructure punch by deformation of the nanostructure punch and/or prestressing of the substrate by deformation of the substrate, b) making contact of a partial area of the punch surface with the nanostructure punch and c) automatic contacting of the remaining surface at least partially, especially predominantly, by the prestressing of the nanostructure punch and/or the prestressing of the substrate.

Claim (Index 1):
A device for embossing a nanostructure that is formed on a nanostructure punch into a punch surface of a curable material that has been applied to a substrate, the nanostructure being aligned relative to the punch surface, said device comprising:\n a punch chucking apparatus configured to hold and move the nanostructure punch, the punch chucking apparatus having fixing means, the fixing means being configured to hold the nanostructure punch to the punch chucking apparatus; and an actuator controlled to deform the nanostructure punch by applying pressure to a backside of the nanostructure punch to prestress the nanostructure punch and place a partial area of the nanostructure punch in contact with a corresponding partial area of the punch surface; and wherein, when the contact between the partial area is established, the fixing means is configured to release the nanostructure punch to place a remaining area of the nanostructure punch in contact with a corresponding remaining area of the punch surface.
