With recent developments in ultraprecision machining methods, the manufacture of devices with sub 10 nm shape accuracy and with surface smoothness at the atomic level has been realized. However, it takes a lot of work and time to fabricate such precise devices. Electroforming, a replication technique using electrodeposition, is expected to be an efficient fabrication process for these devices. In this paper, we report fundamental research on electroform replication of ultra-smooth masters. Smooth float glass substrates that have a root-mean-square surface roughness of 0.1 nm were used as masters. Copper electroformed replicas were fabricated to investigate the relationship between electrodeposition conditions and surface roughness of the replicas. Experimental results indicate that the microstructures of the electroplated films affect the surface roughness of replicas.
