The objective of this research was to establish the size limitation of micro metal forming and analyze the formability of foil. Flat-rolled ultra thin metallic copper foil($3{\mu}m$ in thickness) was used as a forming material and foil was annealed to improve the formability at the temperature of $385^{\circ}C$. Forming die was fabricated by using etching technique of DRIE(deep reactive ion etching) and HNA isotropic etching. For the forming die and coupe. foil were vacuum packed and the forming was conducted as applying hydrostatic pressure of 250MPa to the vacuum packed unit. We successfully obtained the micro channels of $12\~14{\mu}m$ width and $9{\mu}m$ depth from micro forming process we designed. We also investigated the thickness strain distribution of foil from experiment and FE simulation result. Micro channels had a good formability of smooth surface and size accuracy. We expect that micro metal forming technology will be applied to production of micro parts.

Micro-tensile testing system, consisting of a micro tensile loading system and micro-ESPI(Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometry) system, has been developed for measurement of micro-tensile properties of thin micro-materials. Micro-tensile loading system had a load cell with the maximum capacity of 50N and micro actuator with resolution of 4.5nm in stroke. The system was used to apply a tensile load to the micro-sized specimen. During tensile loading, the micro-ESPI system acquired interferornetric speckle patterns in the deformed specimen and measured the in-plane tensile strain. The ESPI system consisted of a CCD-camera with a lens and the window-based program developed for this experiment. Using this system, stress-strain curves for 4 kinds of electrolytic copper foil 18$\square$m thick were obtained. From these curves, tensile properties, including the elastic modulus. yielding strength and tensile strength, were determined and also values of the plastic exponent and coefficient based on Ramberg-Osgood relationship were evaluated.

Aluminum 분말과 고분자를 혼합하여 고분자-금속 복합재료(polymer-metal composite)를 만들어 copper foil과 기판의 접착력을 평가하였다. Tape casting 방법을 이용하여 sheet 만들고 vacuum lamination으로 PCB(Printed Circuit Board)기판을 제조한 후 포토공정으로 peel strength pattern을 형성하였으며, 본 연구에서는 최적의 aluminum 조건을 찾기 위하여 압력, 온도, copper foil의 표면 상태와 silane 표면 코팅에 따른 aluminum-polymer복합재료의 peel strength의 변화를 확인하였다. 최적의 조건은 silane 표면 코팅 처리를 한 aluminum 분말로 $210^{\circ}C$에서 $9.7kg/cm^2$ 압력으로 matte면의 돌기 크기가 크며, 응집이 잘 되어있는 copper foil을 사용하여 13.89N의 우수한 peel strength를 구현 할 수 있었다.

The burr of micro drilling and micro cutting on thin metal film is a major obstacle to mass production for micro PCB boards in micro technologies of personal computing and telecom explosion. As the burr affects on the assembling process, it is necessary to study continuously on control or elimination of the burr. In order to get higher valued products, it is also needed to competitive techniques with the high resolution. In this paper, we studied experimentally the burr generation that when it is processed on the copper foil by laser in micro-hole machining. Unlike mechanical machining the burr produced on substrate is a resultants of melt and re-solidification of a melten metal which was heated and treated by laser. And higher laser energy increases the size of burr. Therefor in micro-drilling with laser, it is difficult to reduce the effects of burr for very thin metal sheets. We investigated the stale of the burr and analyzed the laser ablation Cu micro machining with respect to laser intensity and processing time.

The copper deposit on steel plate was prepared by pyrophosphate copper plating solution made with variation of inorganic additive. $NH_4OH$ and $NH_4NO_3$ were used as inorganic additives. The copper layer characteristics - tensile strength, crystallite size and crystal orientation - were evaluated by X-ray diffraction and Universal Test Machine. The presence of ammonium nitrate results in reduction of average roughness value from $0.08{\mu}m$ to $0.03{\mu}m$. In pyrophosphate copper plating solution without Inorganic additive, tensile strength of electrodeposit copper foil was reduced from 600 MPa to 180 MPa after 7 days aging. However, when adding ammonium nitrate, there was almost no change of tensile strength, intensity of crystal orientation - (111), (200) and (220) - and crystallite size (2~30 nm).

Usually nanosecond pulsed laser processing of metal is mainly affected by the thermal ablation. Many studies of the theoretical analysis and modeling to predict the laser ablation of metal are suggested on the basis of the photothermal mechanism at higher laser fluence. In this paper, we investigate the etching depth and laser fluence of laser ablation of copper foils and propose the simplified SSB Model(Srinivasan-Smrtic-Babu model) to study the photothermal effect of nanosecond pulsed laser ablation. The experimental results show that the photothermal ablation of the 355nm DPSS $NdYVO_{4}$ laser is useful to process the copper thin foils.

In order to manufacture 2-layer flexible copper clad laminate (FCCL) s having the excellent performance high adhesion properties between copper foil and polyimide film are required. Silane coupling agents with specific functional groups as an adhesion promoter are generally used to enhance the adhesion. In our study, we synthesized a novel silane coupling agent for increasing the adhesive property between copper layer and polyimide layer. The surface morphology of rolled copper foil, as a function of the concentrations of the coated silane coupling agent, was fully characterized. As fabricated 2-layer FCCL, we observed that adhesive properties were changed by the surface morphology and we confirmed that the novel silane coupling agent affects adhesive properties in FCCL with two types of poly (amic acid)s.
