In this paper Research development about a micro metal forming manufacturing system has been developed. A micro forming system has been achieved in Japan and it's developed micro press is limited to single forming process. To coincide with the purpose to be more practical, research and development is necessary about the press which the multi forming process is possible. We set the development of the equipment including micro deep drawing, micro punching and micro restriking process to the goal. To achieve this goal, we set the application product to a micro thin foil valve which is used in the micro pump module. The compound die set has been designed and manufactured to make two step process. The material of thin foil valve is SUS-304 and its thickness is 50$\mu$m. We can get a good forming results from micro punching experiments in this paper.

In these day, micro systems have gained attention with development of advance technologies. Researches about the fabrication of micro parts are actively made in the whole world. Among the researches, technology for micro injection molding machine is one of the key issues for fabrication of micro parts. In this study, we developed a micro injection molding machine for micro parts. To achieve this, injection unit was constructed using a screw with diameter of 12 mm. Clamping unit with clamping force of 1.75 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was constructed. Also verification test fur fabrication of micro parts was performed. It was performed that the micro injection molding machine can fabricate micro parts based on the result.

A micro-mixer with a quasi-active rotor was fabricated, and mixing characteristics were evaluated. The proposed micro-mixer combines an active type micro-mixer with a passive type micro-mixer. The micro-rotor, which is a moving part of an active type micro-mixer, is added in a micro-chamber of a passive type vortex micro-mixer. The rotor rotated by inflows tangent to a chamber, causing strong perturbations. The micro-mixers were fabricated using photosensitive glass. Mixing efficiency of the micro-mixers was measured using an image analysis method. Mixing efficiency and characteristics of the micro-rotor mixer were compared with the vortex micro-mixer without a rotor. Mixing efficiency was reduced as Reynolds number increased at a low Reynolds number due to decrease of residence time. Mixing efficiency at higher Reynolds number, on the other hand, was improved even though residence time decreased since the contact surface between fluids increased by twisted flow. The perturbation induced by rotating rotor at greater than Re 200 improved the efficiency of the rotor mixer.

3-D micro structures and micro tools were fabricated using Micro Electrical Discharge Machining (MEDM). To make micro structures, micro electrical discharge milling process was applied. During micro electrical discharge milling, electrode (tool) worn in the both axial and radial direction. To compensate tool wear which has significant influence on machining accuracy, machining path overlapping was proposed. Machining characteristics of micro electrical discharge milling was investigated in considering of depth of cut and capacitance of discharge circuit. Micro complex shaped tools were also fabricated using REDM (reverse electrical discharge machining). Sacrificial electrodes were machined through electrical discharge milling process and were used as electrode to make micro tools. Using this process several micro tools shape of 'ㄷ', 'ㅁ' and 'o' were fabricated. With these complex shaped tools, micro machining was successfully applied repeatedly.

In order to analysis of the stress distribution around flaws and the interaction effects between fatigue cracks, stress around micro hole was analyzed by Finite Element Method(F.E.M.) and micro hole specimens were tested using rotary bending fatigue machine and twisting fatigue machine to identify stress effects for fatigue cracks initiating from micro holes and interaction effects between micro holes. The results are as follows : Interaction effects of .sigma. $_{y}$for the micro hole side is larger than the large micro hole side when the interval between micro holes is near. Stress concentration factor increase as the diameter of micro hole becomes smaller. But, stress field of micro hole is smaller than that of large micro hole at h .leq. r (h:depth of micro hole, r:radius of micro hole) and that of large hole is larger than that of small micro hole at h >r expect the small range from micro hole.e.

Polymer micro-fluidic devices were fabricated with laser processes. A UV laser and a femto laser were used to machine polymer micro-fluidic structures directly. This laser direct machining process suits the need of rapid prototyping, as in many applications changes from the original design are often required. As examples, two polymer micro-systems were developed: a micro-check valve and a micro diffuser pump. The micro fluidic devices can be applied for many applications such as clinical diagnostics and drug delivery. Advantages and disadvantages using polymers as a material for micro-fluidic applications are discussed.

목적 MicroPure 초음파 영상의 미세 석회 발견 성능을 평가하고, MicroPure 초음파 영상 소견을 이용하여 미세 석회의 특징을 파악하고자 하였다. 대상과 방법 유방촬영술과 B-mode 초음파에서 모두 보이며, 악성으로 의심되는 총 171개의 미세 석회를 대상으로 MicroPure 초음파 영상을 평가하였다. 미세 석회의 크기는 작거나(점상, 무정형, 미세 다형성, 미세 선형), 큰(거친 불균질) 군으로 구분하였고, 미세 석회의 범위는 좁거나(군집), 넓은(기타) 군으로 나누었다. MicroPure 초음파 영상 가시성은 B-mode와 MicroPure 초음파 영상의 미세석회 개수를 비교하여 4가지로 나누었다: B > M (B-mode에서 더 많은 병변이 보임), B = M (비슷한 개수가 보임), B < M (MicroPure에서 더 많은 병변이 보임), 음성(보이지 않음). MicroPure 초음파 영상의 가시성과 관련된 영상 소견들에 대해 다중비교를 시행하였다. 결과 171개 중 157개의 병변이 MicroPure 초음파 영상에서 확인되었다(91.8%). Breast Imaging Reporting and Data System (이하 BI-RADS) 범주 4A의 비율은 MicroPure 양성군에서 범주 4B의 비율은 MicroPure 음성군에서 유의하게 더 높았다(p = 0.035). 다른 영상 소견에는 차이가 없었다. MicroPure 양성 세부군에서 모든 특징은 유의한 차이를 보이지 않았다. 결론 MicroPure 초음파 영상은 B-mode 초음파에서 보이는 미세 석회의 91.8%를 발견하였다. MicroPure 초음파 영상 가시성은 미세 석회의 범주와 관련이 있었다.

Micro-light emitting diode (micro-LED) displays offer numerous advantages such as high brightness, fast response, and low power consumption. Hence, they are spotlighted as the next-generation display. However, defective LEDs may be created due to non-uniform contact loads or LED alignment errors. Therefore, a repair process involving the replacement of defective LEDs with favorable ones is necessitated. The general repair process involves the removal of defective micro-LEDs, interconnection material transfer, as well as new micro-LED transfer and bonding. However, micro-LEDs are difficult to repair since their size decreases to a few tens of micron in width and less than 10 ㎛ in thickness. The conventional nozzle-type dispenser for fluxes and the conventional vacuum chuck for LEDs are not applicable to the micro-LED repair process. In this study, transfer conditions are determined using a micro stamp for repairing micro-LEDs. Results show that the aging time should be set to within 60 min, based on measuring the aging time of the flux. Additionally, the micro-LEDs are subjected to a compression test, and the result shows that they should be transferred under 18.4 MPa. Finally, the I-V curves of micro-LEDs processed by the laser and hot plate reflows are measured to compare the electrical properties of the micro-LEDs based on the reflow methods. It was confirmed that the micro-LEDs processed by the laser reflow show similar electrical performance with that processed by the hot plate reflow. The results can provide guidance for the repair of micro-LEDs using micro stamps.
