The demand fer small and high-capacity optical data storage devices has rapidly increased. The areal density of optical disk is increased by using higher numerical aperture objective lens and shorter wavelength source. A wafer-scale stacked micro objective lens with a numerical aperture of 0.85 and a focal length of 0.467mm for the 405nm blue- violet laser was designed and fabricated. A diffractive optical element (DOE) was used to compensate the spherical aberration of the objective lens. Among the various fabrication methods for micro DOE, the UV-replication process is more suitable fur mass-production. In this study, an 8-stepped DOE pattern as a master was fabricated by photolithography and reactive ion etching process. A flexible mold was fabricated for improving the releasing properties and shape accuracy in UV-replication process. In the replication process, the effects of exposing time and applied pressure on the replication quality were analyzed. Finally, the surface profiles of master, mold and molded pattern were measured by optical scanning profiler. The geometrical deviation between the master and the molded DOE was less than $0.1{\mu}m$. The diffraction efficiency of the molded DOE was measured by DOE efficiency measurement system which consists of laser source, sample holder, aperture and optical power meter, and the measured value was $84.5\%$.

나노 임프린트 리소그래피 기술은 기존의 노광 장비를 이용하는 기존의 리소그래피 공정에 비해 저렴한 공정으로 대면적 패터닝이 가능한 차세대 리소그래피 기술이다. 나노 임프린트 리소그래피는 기존의 나노 리소그래피 기술과는 다르게 기능성 무기물 물질을 직접 패터닝 할 수 있는 기술이다. 본 연구에서는 $TiO_2$ 나노 패턴을 를 기존의 증착, 리소그래피, 식각 등의 공정을 거치지 않고, sol-gel법과 나노 임프린트 리소그래피를 이용하여 직접 전사하는 기술에 대해 연구 하였다. 본 연구에서는 Tetrabutylorthotitanate를 precusor로 하는 ethanol 기반의 $TiO_2$ sol을 제작하여 이용하였다. PDMS mold를 임프린팅용 몰드로 사용하였으며, 이러한 PDMS mold는 노광 기술과 반응성 이온 식각을 이용하여 제작된 master mold로 부터 복제되었다. 제작된 sol을 Si wafer에 spin coating하여 넓게 도포한 후, wafer위에 PDMS mold를 밀착 시킨다. 이후, 5 bar의 압력과 $200^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 나노 임프린트 리소그래피 공정을 진행하여 $TiO_2$ gel 패턴을 형성한다. gel 상태의 $TiO_2$ 패턴을 anealing 공정을 통해 다결정질 TiO2 나노 패턴으로 제작하였다. 제작된 패턴을 scanning electron microscope(SEM)를 이용하여 확인하고, XRD 및 EDX를 이용하여 분석하였다.

Nanofabrication is an essential process throughout industry. Technologies that produce general nanofabrication, such as e-beam lithography, dip-pen lithography, DUV lithography, immersion lithography, and laser interference lithography, have drawbacks including complicated processes, low throughput, and high costs, whereas nano-transfer printing (nTP) is inexpensive, simple, and can produce patterns on non-plane substrates and multilayer structures. In general nTP, the coherency of gold-deposited stamps is strengthened by using SAM treatment on substrates, so the gold patterns are transferred from stamps to substrates. However, it is hard to apply to transfer other metallic materials, and the existing nTP process requires a complicated surface treatment. Therefore, it is necessary to simplify the nTP technology to obtain an easy and simple method for fabricating metal patterns. In this paper, asnTP process with poly vinyl alcohol (PVA) mold was proposed without any chemical treatment. At first, a PVA mold was duplicated from the master mold. Then, a Mo layer, with a thickness of 20 nm, was deposited on the PVA mold. The Mo deposited PVA mold was put on the Si wafer substrate, and nTP process progressed. After the nTP process, the PVA mold was removed using DI water, and transferred Mo nano patterns were characterized by a Scanning electron micrograph (SEM) and Energy Dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).

The potential for growth and the future impact of Rapid Prototyping that it will have on the product development cycle are enormous. Since making tools, precedes making parts, Rapid Tooling becomes widely used in automobile, aerospace, electronic, and other industries. In this study, master models formed by Rapid Prototyping of Stereolithography have been applied for vacuum casting to obtain silicone patterns which have transformed into epoxy models. The epoxy models have been measured to check dimension errors, and tested their functions. These checking and measurement have provided information on plastic injection possibilities and data for die design, Temporary die making with the materials of Aluminum/Epoxy and powder injection metal (PIM) has also been discussed in terms of hardness, surface roughness, and SEM microstructures.

In this study, we analyzed about that after design form manufacture master pattern in Rapid Prototyping-RP through design program, processes to manufacture prototype using Vacuum Casting. In Rapid Prototyping-RP, there is an en-or by shrinkage of resin and, in Vacuum Casting, there is an error by shrinkage of silicon. To select condition which shrinkage become the minimum of each process, manufactured prototype after using Full Factorial Design of Design of Experiments, We could confirm shrinkage using reverse engineering and that result came into effect ANOVA 2-way. We applied errors of each process to master pattern, and then presented the method to improve flood control precision of prototype of Vacuum Casting.

A plastic substrate with tiny rectangular pillars less than 100nm is injection molded to study pattern replication in injection molding. The size of the substrate is 50mm ${\times}$ 50mm and 1mm thick. The substrate has 9 patterned areas of which size is 2mm ${\times}$ 2mm respectively. The lengths of the pillars are 50nm, 100nm, 150nm and 200nm and the width and height are 50nm and about 100nm respectively. A pattern master is fabricated by e-beam writing using positive PR(photo resist) and then a nickel stamper replicated from the PR master by nickel electro-plating. Cr is deposited on the PR pattern master before nickel electro-plating as a conducting layer. Using this nickel stamper, several injection molding experiments are done to investigate effects of the injection molding parameters such as mold temperature, injection rate, packing pressure or pattern location on the replication of the patterns under 100nm.

This study demonstrates the process of fabricating patterns using tribonanolithography (TNL),with laboratory-made micro polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools that are attached to an atomic force microscope (AFM). The various patterns are easily fabricated using mechanical scratching, under various normal loads, using the PCD tool on single crystal silicon, which is the master mold for replication in this study. Then, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) replica molds are fabricated using precise pattern transfer processes. The transferred patterns show high dimensional accuracy as compared with those of TNL-processed silicon micro molds. TNL can reduce the need for high cost and complicated apparatuses required for conventional lithography methods. TNL shows great potential in that it allows for the rapid fabrication of duplicated patterns through simple mechanical micromachining on brittle sample surfaces.

This work presents a simple and cost-effective approach for maskless fabrication of positive-tone silicon master for the replica molding of hyperfine elastomeric channel. Positive-tone silicon masters were fabricated by a maskless fabrication technique using the combination of nanoscratch by Nanoindenter ⓡ XP and XOH wet etching. Grooves were machined on a silicon surface coated with native oxide by ductile-regime nanoscratch, and they were etched in a 20 wt％ KOH solution. After the KOH etching process, positive-tone structures resulted because of the etch-mask effect of the amorphous oxide layer generated by nanoscratch. The size and shape of the positive-tone structures were controlled by varying the etching time (5, 15, 18, 20, 25, 30 min) and the normal loads (1, 5 mN) during nanoscratch. Moreover, the effects of the Berkovich tip alignment (0, 45$^{\circ}$) on the deformation behavior and etching characteristic of silicon material were investigated.
