광 도파관 제작을 위한 마스터를 (100), (110) 실리콘 웨이퍼를 이용하여 제작하였다. DRIE와 화학적 습식 식각을 이용하여 사각형 모양의 부드러운 표면을 가진 마스터를 구현하였다. 식각된 패턴의 거칠기는 광 도파관을 제작할 수 있을 정도로 충분히 작았다. 마스터와 광 도파관의 분리를 용이하게 하기 위하여 마스터에 산화막을 형성하고 PFAS를 도포함으로써 HIBRIMERs 광 도파관을 성공적으로 제작할 수 있었다.

고성능 소자의 전력밀도가 증가함에 따라 소자의 열 관리는 주요 핵심 기술로 부각되었고, 기존의 heat sink나 TIM(thermal interface material)으로는 소자의 열 문제를 해결하는데 한계가 있다. 이에 최근에는 열 유속(heat flux)을 증가시키고자 액체 냉각 시스템에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있으며, 본 연구에서는 TSV(through Si via)와 microchannel을 이용하여 칩 레벨 액체 냉각 시스템을 제작하고 시스템의 냉각 특성을 분석하였다. TSV와 microchannel은 Si 웨이퍼에 DRIE(deep reactive ion etching)을 이용하여 공정하였고, 3가지 다른 형상의 TSV를 제작하여 TSV 형상이 냉각 효율에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. TSV와 microchannel 내 액체흐름 형상은 형광현미경으로 관찰하였고, 액체 냉각에 대한 효율은 실온에서 $300^{\circ}C$까지 시편을 가열하면서 적외선현미경을 이용하여 온도를 측정 분석하였다.

This paper reports the results of a study on the optimization of the etching profile, which is an important factor in deep-reactive-ion etching (DRIE), i.e., dry etching. Dry etching is the key processing step necessary for the development of the Internet of Things (IoT) and various microelectromechanical sensors (MEMS). Large-area etching (open area > 20%) under a high-frequency (HF) condition with nonoptimized processing parameters results in damage to the etched sidewall. Therefore, in this study, optimization was performed under a low-frequency (LF) condition. The HF method, which is typically used for through-silicon via (TSV) technology, applies a high etch rate and cannot be easily adapted to processes sensitive to sidewall damage. The optimal etching profile was determined by controlling various parameters for the DRIE of a large Si wafer area (open area > 20%). The optimal processing condition was derived after establishing the correlations of etch rate, uniformity, and sidewall damage on a 6-in Si wafer to the parameters of coil power, run pressure, platen power for passivation etching, and $SF_6$ gas flow rate. The processing-parameter-dependent results of the experiments performed for optimization of the etching profile in terms of etch rate, uniformity, and sidewall damage in the case of large Si area etching can be summarized as follows. When LF is applied, the platen power, coil power, and $SF_6$ should be low, whereas the run pressure has little effect on the etching performance. Under the optimal LF condition of 380 Hz, the platen power, coil power, and $SF_6$ were set at 115W, 3500W, and 700 sccm, respectively. In addition, the aforementioned standard recipe was applied as follows: run pressure of 4 Pa, $C_4F_8$ content of 400 sccm, and a gas exchange interval of $SF_6/C_4F_8=2s/3s$.

Microfin arrays with fin heights of 100 ${\mu}$m and 200 ${\mu}$m and six different spacings from 30 ${\mu}m$to 360 ${\mu}m$ are fabricated using the DRIE process. Natural convective heat transfer around the microfin arrays on both vertical and horizontal surfaces is experimentally examined. It turns out that the orientation effect of microfin arrays is negligible compared with macrofin arrays. The obtained heat transfer coefficients are compared with the existing heat transfer correlation for the macrofin arrays. It is concluded that the existing macrocorrelation is no longer valid for the microfin arrays. Relevant empirical correlations for microfin arrays on the vertical and horizontal surfaces are presented based on the present experimental data.

This paper presents the fabrication possibility of the micro actuator which uses a micro-thermal bubble, generated by a micro-heater under pulse heating. The micro-actuator is consist of three plate. The lower plate includes the channel and chamber are fabricated on high processability silicon wafer by the DRIE(Deep Reactive ion Etching) process. The middle plate includes the chamber and diaphragm, and the upper plate is the micro-heater. The micro-heater designed non-uniform width and results in periodic generation of stable single bubbles in D.I water. The single bubble appears precisely on the narrow part of the micro-heater and control is recorded.

The hot embossing process has been mentioned as one of major nanoreplication techniques. This is due to its simple process, low cost, high replication fidelity and relatively high throughput. As the initial step of quantitating the embossing process, simple parametric study about embossing time have been carried out using high-resolution masters which patterned by the DRIE process and laser machining. Under the various embossing time, the viscous flow of thin PMMA films into microcavities during Compression force has been investigated. Also, a study about simulating the viscous flow during embossing process has planned and continuum scale FDM analysis was applied on this simulation. With currently available test data and condition, simple FDM analysis using FLOW3D was made attempt to match simulation and experiment.
