본 연구에서는 나노/마이크로 소자 및 MEMS 제작에 활용가능하고 또한 수십 마이크로미터 크기의 3차원 곡면을 가진 형상을 제작하기 유리한 이광자 광중합을 이용한 다중조사 복셀 매트릭스 스캐닝법(multi-exposure voxel matrix scanning method)에 의한 나노 복화공정을 개발하였다. 이 공정을 통하여는 높이에 따라 14가지의 색을 가진 등고선으로 표현된 3차원 자유곡면 형상을 적층방식이 아닌 단일 층으로 3차원으로 제작할 수 있다. 여기서 수광각도가 1.25인 집광렌즈를 사용하여 레이저의 조사시간에 따라 1.2 um에서 6.4 um까지 변하는 복셀의 높이 차이를 이용하여 3차원 곡면 제작이 가능하다. 본 연구의 유용성을 검토하기 위하여 몇 가지 3차원 곡면형상을 초미세 입체 패터닝 공정에서 사용하는 일반적인 적층방식을 사용하지 않고 단층으로 제작하여 시간을 단축하였다.

This paper presents a novel electrostatic drop-on-demand inkjet device featured by a MEMS fabricated pole-type and hole-type nozzle with tube shaped orifice and investigates the feasibility of applying the inkjet device to display fabrication process. The electric voltage signal applied to the ring shaped upper electrode plate, against the hole-shaped ground or pole-shaped ground, referred here pole-type and hole-type nozzle respectively, allows ejection of small droplet to take place: That is, a tiny droplet is taken away from the peak of the mountain shaped liquid meniscus formed at the nozzle orifice. It is verified experimentally that the use of the pole type nozzle allows a stable and sustainable micro-dripping mode of droplet ejection for a wider range of applied voltages and of liquid viscosities. This demonstrates a feasibility of electrostatic drop-on-demand inkjet device as a disruptive alternative to conventional print heads such as thermal bubble or piezoelectric inkjet heads.

A thermal micro actualtor has been fabricated using surface micromachining techniques. It consists of doped ploysilicon as a moving part and TEOS(Tetra Ethyl Ortho Silicate) as a sacrificial layer. The polysilicon was annealed for the reduction of residual stress which is the main cause to its deformation such as bending and buckling. And the newly developed HF VPE(vapor phase etching)process was also used as an effective release method for the elimination of sacrificaial layer. With noliquid involved during any of the steps for relasing, unlike other reported relase techniques, the HF VPE pocess has produced polysilicon microstructures with virtually no process-induced stiction problem. The actuation is incured by the thermal expasion due to current flow in active polysilicon cantilever, which motion is amplified bylever mechanism. The thickness of pllysilicon is 2 .mu. m and the length of active and passive polysilicon cantilever are 500 .mu. m, respectively. The moving distance of polysilicon actuator was experimentally conformed as large as 21 .mu. m at the input voltage level of 10 V and 50Hz square wave. These micro actuator technology can be utilized for the fabrication of MEMS (microlectromechanical system) such as microrelay, which requires large displacement or contact force but relatively slow response.

Recently, micro machining technology for high precision mold becomes more interested for mass production of high performance optical parts micro-grooved on the surface, which is under very active development due to its effectiveness in the view point of optical performance. Mechanical micro machining technology now has more competitiveness on lithography, MEMS or LIGA processes which have some problems to fabricate especially cylinder type of groove in such as lenticular lens for illumination angle modulation system. In this study. a lenticular lens mold with U-type micro groove is fabricated making utilizing of the benefit of the mechanical micro machining technology. A shaping machining process is adapted using 3 axis degree of freedom micro machining system and single crystal natural diamond tool. A brass and a electroless nickel materials are used for mold fabrication. Machining force, chip shape and machined surface are investigated from the experiment and an optimal machining condition is found based on the examined problems from the micro cutting process.

A novel selective metallization process to fabricate the fine conductive line based on inkjet printing has been investigated. Recently, Inkjet printing has been widely used in flat panel display, electronic circuits, biochips and bioMEMS because direct inkjet printing is an alternative and cost-effective technology for patterning and fabricating objects directly from design without masks. The photosensitive etching resist used in this process is an organic polymer which becomes solidified when exposed to ultraviolet lights and has high viscosity at ambient temperature. A piezoelectric-driven inkjet printhead is used to dispense 20-30 ${\mu}m$ diameter droplets onto the copper substrate to prevent subsequent etching. Repeatability of circuitry fabrication is closely related to the formation of steady droplets, adhesion between etching resist and copper substrate. Therefore, the ability to form small and stable droplets and surface topography of the copper surface and chemical attack must be taken into consideration for fine and precise patterns. In this study, factors affecting the pattern formation such as adhesion strength, etching mechanism, UV curing have been investigated. As a result, microscale copper patterns with tens of urn high have been fabricated.

In this article, a micro cantilever array actuated by PZT films is designed and fabricated for micro fluidic systems. The design features for maximizing tip deflections and minimizing fluid leakage are described. The governing equation of the composite PZT cantilever is derived and the actuating behavior predicted. The calculated value of the tip deflection was 15 ${\mu}m$ at 5 V. The fabrication process from SIMOX (Separation by oxygen ion implantation) wafer is presented in detail with the PZT film deposition process. The PZT films are characterized by investigating the ferroelectric properties, dielectric constant, and dielectric loss. Tip deflections of 12 ${\mu}m$ at 5 V are measured, which agreed well with the predicted value. The 18 ${\mu}l/s$ leakage rate of air was observed at a pressure difference of 1000 Pa. Micro cooler is introduced, and its possible application to micro compressor is discussed.

On-chip micro humidity sensor, using $CN_x$ films for the sensing material, was designed, simulated, and fabricated with Op amp based readout circuit and diode temperature sensors. To compensate the temperature and other gases, two methods were applied. One is wheatstone-bridge with reference FET that eliminates other undesirable chemical species, and the other is a diode temperature sensor to compensate the temperature effect. $CN_x$ film can be a new humidity sensing material, and has a strong potential to adapt to smart sensors or multi-sensors using MEMS or nano-technology. A particular design technology for integration of sensors and systems together was proposed that whole fabrication process could be achieved by a standard CMOS process.

Pyramid shape of micro pattern is applied to the light guide panel (LGP) to enhance the uniformity of the brightness of the LCD. The micro pyramids are molded in intaglio on the surface of the LGP. The size of each pyramid is 5$\mu$m $\times$ 5$\mu$m on bottom and the height is about 3.5$\mu$m. The pyramids are distributed on the LGP surface randomly to be sparser where the light comes in and denser at the opposite side as a result of a simulation using lightools$^{TM}$ Based on this design, a silicon pattern master and a nickel stamper are fabricated by MEMS process and electro plating process. Intaglio micro pyramids are fabricated on the 6' of silicon wafer from the anisotropic etching using KOH and the process time, temperature of the KOH solution, etc are optimized to obtain precise shape of the pattern. A Wi stamper is fabricated from this pattern master by electro plating process and the embossed pyramid patterns turns out to be well defined on the stamper. Adopting this stamper to the mold base with two cavities, 1.8' and 3.6' LGPs are injection molded.

A conical roll-shaping process was proposed for fabrication of a metallic spiral blade applied to a small-scale wind turbine system. A spiral blade has continuously different curvatures, with a range of 100 to 350 mm radius. To fabricate this complex shape, we developed a conical roll-shaping process having two main conical rollers for feeding a blank sheet, and two cylindrical side rollers for control of local bending. For clear understanding of the process parameters, numerical analyses were conducted using a commercial code, Pam-Stamp. This study optimized the effects of process parameters, such as gap and angle between the main rollers and side rollers, and also the movement of side rollers. In order to increase the forming efficiency, a central rotation point was also calculated by the analytical approach. This developed rolling process can thus be utilized in a sheet metal forming process for obtaining spirally curved sheet metal shapes.
