A new method is introduced to build up organic/organic multilayer films composed of cationic poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH) and negatively charged poly (sodium 4-styrenesulfonate) (PSS) using the spinning process. The adsorption process is governed by both the viscous force induced by fast solvent elimination and the electrostatic interaction between oppositely charged species. On the other hand, the centrifugal and air shear forces applied by the spinning process significantly enhances desorption of weakly bound polyelectrolyte chains and also induce the planarization of the adsorbed polyelectrolyte layer. The film thickness per bilayer adsorbed by the conventional dipping process and the spinning process was found to be about 4 ${\AA}$ and 24 ${\AA}$, respectively. The surface of the multilayer films prepared with the spinning process is quite homogeneous and smooth. Also, a new approach to create multilayer ultrathin films with well-defined micropatterns in a short process time is Introduced. To achieve such micropatterns with high line resolution in organic multilayer films, microfluidic channels were combined with the convective self-assembly process employing both hydrogen bonding and electrostatic intermolecular interactions. The channels were initially filled with polymer solution by capillary pressure and the residual solution was then removed by the .spinning process.

Precise micropatterning of polypropylene film, which is highly transparent in the wavelength range over 250 nm has been demonstrated by 355 nm nano/picosecond laser and 785 nm femtosecond laser. Increments of both the pulse energy and the shot number of pulses lead to cooccurrence of photochemical and thermal effects, demonstrated by the spatial expansion of rim on the surface of PP. The shapes of the laser-ablated polypropylene films were imaged by optical microscope and measured by a 3D optical measurement system. And, the ablation depth and width of polypropylene film ablated by femtosecond laser at various pulse energy and pulse number were characterized. Our results demonstrate that a femtosecond pulsed laser is an efficient tool for fabricating micropatterns of polypropylene films, where the micropatterns are specifically tailored in size, location and number easily controlled by laser processing conditions.

Recently, there has been much focus on the controlled alignment and patterning process of nanowires for nanoelectronic devices. A simple and effective method for patterning of highly aligned nanowires using a microcontact printing technique is demonstrated. In this method, nanowires are first directionally aligned by contact printing, following which line and space micropatterns of nanowire arrays are accomplished by microcontact printing with a micro patterned NOA mold.

디스플레이, 광학, 에너지 분야 부품의 미세형상화, 대면적화, 저가격화 요구에 대응하기 위하여 대면적 롤금형의 미세형상 가공기술개발에 대한 필요성이 대두되고 있다. 롤금형은 기존의 평판금형에 비해서 금형의 납기가 빠르고, 대면적화에 용이하며, 연속성형이 가능하다는 장점을 갖고 있다. 본 연구는 롤금형에 미세형상을 가공할 때 발생하는 형상오차의 원인을 규명하는 것을 목적으로 하고 있으며, 가공 현장에서 개선 가능한 요소로서 롤금형의 동적밸런싱 보정방안을 제시하고 있다. 기존보다 정밀한 동적밸런싱 보정을 통하여 롤금형의 질량불평형이 최대 90%까지 감소되었고, 롤금형의 진동량이 0.044 mm/sec (RMS)에서 0.004mm/sec (RMS)로 감소하였으며, 결과적으로 미세패턴의 형상정밀도가 개선되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

This talk demonstrates diverse patterned structures utilizing in-situ self-organization and phase separation of the materials into an ordered fashion. The patterned structures in this talk include electrospun nanofibers and electrosprayed microparticles embedding small particles. The positions of the small particles are in-situ controlled during the electrohydrodynamic process by the interaction with the polymer matrix. Another topic of the talk includes selective deposition of spin-coated materials on a corrugated surface that was prepared by buckling of polymer thin films. Solution are strong tendency to be positioned in the trench area of the surface, which facilitates the fabrication of micropatterns of diverse materials.

One of perspective direction of microfabrication is direct laser writing technology that allows to create metal, semiconductive and dielectric micropatterns on substrate surface. In this work, a two step method, the combination of seed forming process, in which metallic Al seed was selectively generated on AlN ceramic substrate by direct writing technique using a pulsed Nd : YAG laser and subsequent electroless Ni plating on the activated Al seed, was presented. The effects of laser parameters such as pulse energy, scanning speed and pulse frequency on shape of Alseed and conductor line after electroless Ni plating were investigated. The nature of the laser activated surface is analyzed from XPS data. The line width of this metallic Al and Ni is analyzed using SEM. As a results, Al seed line with 24㎛ width and 100㎛ isolated line space is obtained. Finally, laser direct writing can be applied in the field between thin and thick film technique in electronic industry.

We have studied a fabrication of vapor phase polymerized Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) nanowire arrays for the first time. The vapor-phase polymerization (VPP) technique is a bottom-up processing method that utilizes the organic arrangement of macromolecules to easily produce ordered aggregates, including on the nanoscale, or prepare thin films of self-assembled molecules, micropatterns, or modified microstructures of pure conducting polymers. Also, liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding (LB-nTM), which was reported as a new direct patterning method recently, is for the arrayed formation of two- or three-dimensional structures with feature sizes as small as tens of nanometers over large areas up to 4 inches across and is based on the direct transfer of various materials from a mould to a substrate through a liquid bridge between them. The PEDOT nanowires grown by VPP method and transferred on a substrate to use LB-nTM method have been fabricated to single crystal PEDOT nanowires investigated Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Selected Area Electron Diffraction (SAED), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), and electrical properties.

The technologies of laser micromachining are changed toward more complex-micropatterning, from the micro circle-shaped hole drilling to the micro arbitrary-shaped hole drilling. In this paper, the fundamental experiments by using DPSS 3rd harmonic $Nd:YVO_4\;laser({\lambda}=355nm)$ were carried out in order to obtain the feasibility of flexible micropatterning by various fixed masks. Fixed masks and Galvano scanners were investigatde to make micro patterns. from these experimental results, micropatterns on PEN film were rapidly manufactured in large area.

Surface roughness of mechanical components is an important factor which affects the tribological phenomena. Various surface patterns have been applied to surfaces to improve the tribological characteristics of mechanical components. In this work, the friction reduction effect of micropatterns on silicon was investigated. For this purpose, micro-dimple patterns were fabricated on silicon wafer by DRIE process. In the friction experiments silicone oil was used as lubricant. Also, the lubricant was cleaned to simulate a lubricant depleted condition. In depleted lubricated condition, friction coefficient of micro-pattern specimens was lower than specimens without micro-patterns. It was found that friction reduction effect of micro-pattern could be successfully maintained even after cleaning the lubricant on the surface.
