We report on the progress towards developing a new method for fabricating more efficient, broadband antireflective (AR) moth-eye structures in As2Se3 via a direct nanoimprinting technique. Thermal reflow is used during mold fabrication to reshape a conventional deep-ultraviolet lithography in order to promote a pattern transfer of "secant ogive"-like moth-eye structures. Once replicated, structures modified by reflow displayed greater AR efficiency compared to structures replicated by a conventional mold, achieving the highest spectrum-averaged transmittance improvement of 12.36% from 3.3 to 12 μm.
