Abstract
We fabricated a titanium oxide grating using an imprinting technique and a sol–gel method and evaluated phase retardation. A titanium oxide grating with 75 nm depth, fill factor of 0.3, and 400 nm period was obtained by imprinting a titanium oxide sol solution on a silicone (polydimethylsiloxane; PDMS) mold at 150°C. As a result of phase retardation evaluation, it reached 9.2 deg at the 532-nm wavelength.
