본 논문은 $24{\mu}m$ 이하의 미세 폭 및 $30{\mu}m$ 이하의 피치와 같이 미세 패턴을 가진 칩 온 필름(chip-on-film, COF)에 발생한 결함들을 자동으로 검출할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 개발된 검출시스템은 미세 패턴의 COF에서 발생한 개방 (open), 단락 (hard short), mouse bite 및 near short (soft short)과 같은 다양한 결함들을 자동으로 빠르게 검출할 수 있는 기술이 적용되어 있다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 결함 검사 기술의 기본 원리는 미세 패턴내의 결함으로 인해 발생한 저항의 미세 변화를 고주파 공진기 (resonator)를 이용하여 측정 주파수에서 증폭시키고 증폭된 결함 신호와 결함이 없는 경우의 신호와의 전압차를 읽어서 0이 아니면 결함이 있음을 판단한다. 제안된 시스템은 미세 패턴 COF 검사 과정에서 결함들을 신속히 측정할 수 있으므로 불필요한 COF 복사를 위해 소요되는 경비를 줄일 수 있으리라 기대한다.

In this study, pitch was synthesized using pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO). Coke with mesophase microstructure was then prepared from the synthesized pitch and its properties were evaluated. Pitch was synthesized by poly-condensation reaction, which is an endothermic reaction at a temperature above 400 ℃ because the PFO was mainly composed of molecules with two to three aromatic rings. The Coke reactor was composed of the pretreatment reactor, preheater for applying heat energy, and coke drum for inducing microstructure of coke. Coke was prepared from synthesized pitch by controlling the temperature of the preheater to 400~490 ℃, and properties were evaluated by polarization microscope, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. The coke prepared at a preheater temperature of 460 ℃ identified flow anisotropic microstructure, and the electrical conductivity was 72.0 S/cm due to high crystallinity. And the flow anisotropic coke showed approximately 2.2 times higher electrical conductivity than that of Super-P, a conductive carbon material.

Recently, as interest in air quality in vehicles increases, the use of fine dust detection sensors for air quality measurement is becoming common. An axial-flow fan is inserted in the fine dust sensor installed in the air conditioning system in the vehicle to prevent dust from sinking directly on the sensor. When the sensor operates, the flow noise caused by the rotation of the axial-flow fan acts as a major noise source of the fine dust sensor. flow noise is recognized as one of the product competitiveness of fine dust sensors. In this study, the noise was gradually reduced at the same flow rate by improving the flow performance of the small axial flow fan. First, a virtual fan performance tester consisting of about 20 million grids was developed to analyze the aerodynamic performance of the target small axial-flow fan. In addition, the flow field was simulated by using compressible Large Eddy Simulation for direct computation of flow noise as well as high-accurate prediction of flow rate. The validity of numerical method are confirmed through the comparison of predicted results with experimental ones. After the effects of pitch angle on flow performance were analyzed using the verified numerical method, the pitch angle was determined to maximize the flow rate. It was found that the flow rate was increased by 8.1 % and noise was reduced by 0.8 dBA when the axial-flow fan with the optimum pitch angle was used.

We have developed the process of forming one body S-type cantilever probe in the recessed trench for fine-pitched MEMS probe card. The probe (cantilever beam and pyramid tip) was formed using Deep RIE etching and wet etching. The pyramid tip was formed by the wet etching using KOH and TMAH. The process of forming the curved probe was also developed by the wet etching. Therefore, the fabricated probe is applicable for the probe card for DRAM, Flash memory and RF devices tests and probe tip for IC test socket.

Objective: Small orthodontic mini-implants are useful as anchorage. However they have some weaknesses such as loosening. This study was carried out to analyze the mechanical effects of the dual pitch and diameter on the insertion and removal torque of mini-implants. Methods: The threads of mini-implants were mono and dual pitch. The diameters of mini-implants were 1.4 mm and 1.6 mm. Four groups were tested (mono 1.4 mm, mono 1.6 mm, dual 1.4 mm and dual 1.6 mm). All were inserted and removed on polyurethane foam with the torques being measured. Results: The maximum torque of the dual pitch groups was higher than the mono pitch groups during removal but lower during insertion. The maximum torque of the 1.6 mm diameter groups was higher than the 1.4 mm diameter groups during insertion and removal. The dual pitch 1.4 mm group showed the lowest insertion torque but had similar or superior levels of removal torque to that of the mono pitch 1.6 mm group. Conclusions: The dual pitch especially showed a continuous high removal torque after the peak. Despite the small diameter, the dual pitch might improve the initial mechanical stability.

In order to produce high-yield pitch-based activated carbon, pitch was synthesized by blending pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO) and coal-tar. Pitch was synthesized by varying the amount of coal-tar from 0~20% compared to PFO and reacting at 380~420 ℃ for 3 h. The synthesized pitch had a softening point between 80 and 260 ℃, and yields ranged from 10 to 40%. At all synthesis temperatures, as the coal-tar blending ratio increased, the yield increased and the softening point decreased. After considering the selected pitches (softening points: 230~260 ℃), pitches containing coal-tar were more volatile at a low boiling point and had a higher residual carbon content. This is a difference in the composition of coal-tar and PFO, and it was con- firmed that coal-tar has a lot of aromatics and PFO has a lot of aliphatics. The selected pitch was heated to 950 ℃ in a tubular reactor and physically activated with steam for 1 hour. Activated carbon containing coal-tar showed higher yield and microporosity compared to only PFO. In this study, the effect of increasing activated carbon yield by blending pitch raw materials was confirmed, and the physical activation characteristics according to the coal-tar mixing ratio were examined.

In this study, a sensor for detection of nitric oxide (NO) gas was developed using petroleum pitch-based activated carbon which was synthesized from pyrolysis fuel oil (PFO). Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) was added to increase molecular weight by stimulating a polymerization of components in PFO during the pitch synthesis process. The increase in the molecular weight of pitch contributed to the improvement of textural properties of activated carbon, such as the specific surface area and micropore volume. It also enhanced the sensitivity of NO gas sensor based on the activated carbon. In addition, the effect of PET addition during the pitch synthesis on the surface oxygen content and conductivity of activated carbon was investigated. Finally, the correlation of the sensitivity with physical properties of activated carbon was analyzed.

최근 전자제품의 크기가 소형화, 고성능화 되어감에 따라 전자제품을 구성하는 부품 크기도 작아지고, 배선의 피치 또한 미세화 되고 있다. 따라서 패키징 과정도 미세하고 정확한 제어를 필요로 하게 되었으며, 전해도금을 통한 정밀 패키징 공정이 도입되고 있다. 그러나 기존에는 패키징용 메인기판과 부품을 연결하는 솔더는 기존의 Sn-Pb 조성의 납을 포함하는 소재가 사용되었다. 하지만 납의 환경적 문제에 의해 사용을 금지하게 된 상태로 이를 대체하기 위한 무연 조성의 솔더가 연구되고 있다.
