Laser-induced thermochemical wet etching of titanium in phosphoric acid has been investigated to examine the feasibility of this method fur fabrication of microstructures. Cutting, drilling, and milling of titanium foil were carried out while examining the influence of process parameters on etch width, etch depth, and edge straightness. Laser power, scanning speed of workpiece, and etchant concentration were chosen as major process parameters influencing on temperature distribution and reaction rate. Etch width increased almost linearly with laser power showing little dependence on scanning speed while etch depth showed wide variation with both laser power and scanning speed. A well-defined etch profile with good surface quality was obtained at high concentration condition. Fabrication of a hole, micro cantilever beam, and rectangular slot with dimension of tess than 100${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ has been demonstrated.

Characteristics of laser-assisted wet etching of titanium in phosphoric acid were investigated to examine the feasibility of this method for fabrication of high aspect ratio microchannels. Laser power, number of scans, etchant concentration, position of beam waist and scanning speed were taken into consideration as the major process parameters exerting the temperature distribution and the cross sectional profile of etched channels. Experimental results indicated that laser power influences on both etch width and depth while number of scans and scanning speed mainly affect on the etch depth. At a low etchant concentration, the cross sectional profile of an etched channel becomes a U-shape but it gradually turns into a V-shape as the concentration increases. On the other hand, surface of the laser beam focus with respect to the sample surface is found to be a key factor determining the bubble dynamics and thus the process stability. It is demonstrated that metallic microchannels with different cross sectional profiles can be fabricated by properly controlling the process parameters. Microchannels of aspect ratio up to 8 with the width and depth ranges of 8∼32 m and 50∼300 m, respectively, were fabricated.

VTR 자기헤드의 핵심소재로 사용되는 ferrite는 VTR 의 주기능인 영상의 기록 및 재생역할에 가장 중요한 소재이다. 이러한 종류의 head는 지금까지 mask wet chemical etching과 mechanical Process 에 의해 제작 되어왔다. 그러나 기록용량의 중가로 자기장치의 recording density를 높일것이 요구됨에 따라 자기헤드의 gap width를 줄일 필요가 있게 되었다. 본 연구는 mask와 photoresist를 사용하지 않고 ferrite를 직접 미세가공 하는 laser-induced wet etching을 이용하여 자기헤드의 기록용량을 높이고자 하였다. $Ar^+$ laser ( 파장 514 nm )를 빔 확장기와 렌즈를 사용 하여 직경 $1.8{\mu}m$ 로 집속하고, $100{\sim}500\;mW$의 출력 변화를 주어 실험을 하였다. 인산 수용액 (45, 65, 85 %)을 etchant로 사용하여 $5{\sim}30{\mu}m/sec$의 주사속도로 etching 하여, 미세선폭과 high aspect ratio를 갖는 groove를 얻을 수 있었다.
