Abstract: A method producing micro- and/or nanostructures includes fixing a substrate with an embossing material on a substrate accommodating device, contacting of a structured stamp with the embossing material, curing of the embossing material, and removal of the embossing material from the structured stamp.

Abstract: A method for the production of a structural die that has die structures for applying microstructures and/or nanostructures on substrates or soft dies, whereby the die structures are coated at least partially with a coating. In addition, the invention relates to a corresponding structural die as well as a device for the production of a structural die that has die structures for applying microstructures and/or nanostructures on substrates or soft dies, whereby the device has coating means for coating the die structures.

Abstract: A method for embossing at least one microstructure or nanostructure with an embossing die that has at least one embossing structure with the following steps, in particular the following sequence: aligning the embossing structure of the embossing die relative to a metering device, metering an embossing material in the embossing structure by means of the metering device, at least partial hardening of the embossing material and embossing of the embossing material, characterized in that the embossing structures point in a gravitational direction (G) at least in the case of the metering. In addition, the invention relates to a corresponding device.
