초록

LICA technique evolved as a basic fabrication process fur micro-structure. The present report deals with the basic technological features in the sequence of the LIGA technique such as deep x-ray lithography(DXRL), electroplating, and moulding processes at Pohang Light Source (PLS). We designed 3-D structured master for fabrication of polymeric optical wavegude and manufactured polymeric optical wavegude with the same using hot embossing process. Polymeric optical waveguide could be produced with ${\pm}$ 1 $\mu\textrm{m}$ accuracy and good surface roughness.
