재료가공분야에의 레이저의 적용은 1960년대 후반부터 시작되었으며, 고출력 CO$_2$ 와 Nd:YAG 레이저가 많은 산업분야에서 보편화될 정도로 발전하여 왔다. 재료가공에서의 레이저의 적용분야는 금속의 절단, 용접 및 드릴링, 세라익의 스크라이빙, 플라스틱과 복합재의 절단 및 여러 가지 재료의 마킹 등을 포함한다. 이와 같은 모든 응용에서 공통적인 것이 레이저 조사에 의해 재료를 용융, 증발시키는 열적 메카니즘이다.(중략)

엑사이머 레이저는 Ar, Kr, Xe등의 희귀가스와 F, Cl과 같은 할로겐족 가스를 혼합하여 방전여기에 의해 발진되는 157-350mm 파장대에 자외선 레이저이다. UV레이저를 이용하면 종래의 기계 가공 공정으로 실현할 수 없는 극소형 및 초정밀의 기계구조, 센서 또는 액츄에이터를 비접촉식으로 할 수 있고 가공시 열손상이 거의 없다. 최근 제품의 소형화 및 박막화 추세에 따른 미세가공 기술의 급속한 발전을 살펴보면, Uv레이저를 이용한 실리콘 표면의 도핑(dopping)에 관한 연구, 미소전자 패키징에 레이저를 이용하는 방법뿐만 아니라, 레이저 유도에 의한 금속과 혼합물의 물질전달 현상을 활용한 마이크로 패터닝에 관한 연구도 진행되고 있다. 본 글에서는 여러가지 응용분야 중 레이저 어블레이션, 레이저유도화학에칭, 레이저 PVD등에 대하여 기술한다.

Stamps for microcontact processing are fabricated by casting elastomer such as PDMS on a master with a negative of the desired pattern. After curing, the PDMS stamp is peeled away from the master and exposed to a solution of ink and then dried. Transfer of the ink from the PDMS stamp to the substrate occurs during a brief contact between stamp and substrate. Generally, negative-tone masters, which are used for making positive-tone PDMS stamps, are fabricated by using photolithographic technique. The shortcomings of photolithography are a relative high-cost process and require extensive processing time and heavy capital investment to build and maintain the fabrication facilities. The goal of this study is to fabricate a negative-tone master by using Nano-indenter based patterning technique. Various sizes of V-grooves and U-groove were fabricated by using the combination of nanoscratch and HF isotropic etching technique. An achieved negative-tone structure was used as a master in the PDMS replica molding process to fabricate a positive-tone PDMS stamp.

We report a new method for highly controllable local patterning of a hydrogel on microfabricated cantilevers and fabrication of all hydrogel microcantilevers. We constructed a dynamic mask based photolithography setup using a commercial beam projector, a 3-axis microstage and other optical components. Dynamic masks generated from the beam projector controlled the shape, size, and position of hydrogel patterns while the 3-axis microstage mainly controlled the thickness of hydrogel patterns and hydrogel microcantilevers. Using the constructed setup, polyethyleneglycol diacrylate (PEGDA) was patterned on microfabricated cantilevers in a highly controlled manner. Currently, the smallest PEGDA patternable is a 5-${\mu}m$-diameter circle with a thickness of ~$10{\mu}m$. To confirm thicknesses of patterned PEGDAs on silicon microcantilevers, resonance frequencies of microcantilevers were measured before and after each PEGDA patterning. Thicknesses extracted from resonance measurements showed good agreement with measurements using an optical microscope. In addition, PEGDA microcantilevers with various dimensions and thicknesses were fabricated on glass and silicon substrates. Surfaces of fabricated all hydrogel microcantilevers were flat enough to facilitate other post processing and to be used for various sensing applications.

In order to understand the removal mechanism and seek the optimal conditions. KrF excimer laser ablation of Cr films on glass substrates is investigated. The surface morphology of the laser-irradiated spot is examined by SEM. The measured single-shot ablation rate is found to be about two times the result of numerical analysis based on a surface vaporization model and heat conduction theory. Surface morphology examination indicates that the Cr film is removed by the sequence of melting-surface vaporization-,melt expulsion by plasma recoil and that the outmost ripple of the diffraction pattern gives a strong effect on the morphology of molten Cr during the melting and vaporization processes. To seek the optimal process parameters for micro patterning morphological investigation is carried out experimentally on samples having different chromium film thicknesses. Optimal processing conditions are determined to enhance the accuracy and quality of thin film removal for micro patterning.
