N2 - The year 2005, until when ionic liquids (ILs) had been investigated in a vacuum with a common preconception among the research community that they would not evaporate even in vacuum, saw a breakthrough in IL-related research in a vacuum. Since then, there have been many reports on vapor deposition of ILs and related studies. In this chapter, a new deposition method using a continuous wave infrared laser (CW-IR) is proposed to fabricate micro- and nano-ILs; this is a promising technique, potentially opening new research fields of nanoscale physics and chemistry of ILs. As one of the applications of such micro- and nano-ILs, a new vacuum process with ILs - IL-assisted vapor synthesis and growth in a vacuum - is also introduced, in which they are used as micro- and nano-scale reactors; its applications are now being extended as one of the new chemical routes to various organic, inorganic single crystals and films as well as porous polymer films.
