Films with special properties (e.g., water-repellent films, optical films, anti-reflection films, and flexible films) are referred to as functional films. Recently, there has been interest in fine patterning methods for film fabrication. In particular there have been many studies that use a UV nanoimprint process involving a UV curing method. In this paper, a polymer film was fabricated by the UV nanoimprint process with a micro-pattern, and its durability was evaluated by a wear test and a nano-indentation test. The film mechanical properties (such as coefficient of friction, hardness, and modulus of elasticity) were measured. Moreover, the choice of PUA type resin used in the UV nanoimprint process was confirmed to impact the durability of the thin film. Despite making the polymer film samples using the same method and PUA type resin, different coefficient of friction, hardness, and modulus of elasticity values were obtained. PUA 4 resin had the most favorable coefficient of friction, hardness, and modulus of elasticity. This material is predicted to produce a high durability functional film.

We have studied ink-jet printing method for patterning of conductive line on flexible plastic substrates. Synthesized copper nano-particles of ${\sim}40\;nm$ were used for the conductive ink and the printed patterns exhibit a smooth line whose line width is about $100\;{\mu}m$.

We have studied ink-jet printing method for patterning conductive line on flexible plastic substrates. Synthesized silver nano-particles of ${\sim}$20nm were used for the conductive ink and the printed patterns exhibit a smooth line whose linewidth is below 100 ${\mu}m$. This ink-jet printing technique can be applied to flexible displays and electronics.

입자크기가 수 nm인 고농도 은 나노 졸을 이용하여 잉크젯 기법으로 은 미세라인을 형성하고자 하였다. 고분자전해질을 사용하여 합성한 $10wt\%$ 농도의 은 나노 졸의 입자크기는 10nm 이하였으며, 은 나노 졸을 이용한 미세 라인의 인쇄특성은 은 나노 졸의 접촉각에 매우 깊은 관계를 갖고 있었다. 순수한 ITO 기판에서 은 나노 졸은 높은 접촉각을 나타내었으며, dot 형상이 나타났다. 그러나 100ppm의 Polyethylenimine(PEI)을 코팅한 ITO 기판은 젖음성이 크게 개선되었으며, 잉크젯 기법을 이용하여 $60\~100{\mu}m$의 선폭을 갖는 은 나노 졸의 미세라인 형성이 가능함을 확인할 수 있었다.

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.

This paper presents an ultra precision machining system using a high sensitive force sensing module to measure machining forces and penetration displacement in a tip-based nanopatterning. The force sensing module utilizes a leaf spring mechanism and a capacitive displacement sensor and it has been designed to provide a measuring range from 80 ${\mu}N$ to 8 N. This force sensing module is mounted on a PZT driven in-feed motion stage with 1 nm resolution. The sample can be moved by X-Y scanning motion stage with 5 nm resolution. In nano indentation experiments and patterning experiments, the machining forces were controlled and monitored by the force sensing module. Then, the patterned samples were measured by AFM. Experimental results demonstrated that the developed system can be used as an effective device in nano indentation and nanopatterning operation.

Two-dimensional nano-patterns are fabricated using immersion holographic lithography. The photoresist layer is exposed to an interference pattern generated by two incident laser beams($\lambda$=441.6 nm, He-Cd laser) of which the pitch size is less than 200 nm. Good surface profiles of the 2 dimensional patterns are achieved by trimming the lithography process parameters, such as, exposure time, developing time and refractive index of medium liquid.

Super-hydrophobic treated Polyimide film was used as a flexible substrate for developing a new method of metallization. Hydrophilic patterns were fabricated by IN irradiation through shadow mask. Patterned super-hydrophobic substrate was dipped into a bath containing silver nano ink Silver ink was only coated on hydrophilic patterned area. Metal lines of $600{\mu}m$ pitch were fabricated successfully. However, their thickness was too thin to serve as interconnection. To overcome this problem, iterative dipping was conducted. After repeating five times, the thickness of silver metal lines were increased to over than $2{\mu}$. After heat treatment of silver lines, their resistivities were reduced to order of $30{\mu}{\Omega}$-cm the similar level of values reported in other literatures. So, a new method of metallization has high potential for application of RFID antenna and flexible electronics substrates.

The Hot Embossing Lithography(HEL) as a method for the fabrication of nanostructure with polymer is becoming increasingly important because of its simple process, low cost, high replication fidelity and relatively high throughput. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of hot embossing lithography as a nanoreplication technique. To grasp characteristics of nano patterning rheology by process parameters(embossing temperature, pressure and time), we have carried out various experiments by using the DVD(400nm pattern width) and Blu-ray nickel stamps(150nm pattern width). During the hot embossing process, we have observed the characteristics of the size effect. The quality of products made by hot embossing is affected by its cooling shrinkage. The demolding process at the glass transition temperature results in low quality because of the shrinkage of the polymer. Therefore, the quantification of the temperature condition is essential for the replication of high quality.

Indentation pattern and line pattern were machined on borosilicate(Pyrex 7740 glass) surface using the combination of mechanical machining by $Nanoi-indenter\circledR$ XP and HF wet etching, and a etch-mask effect of the affected layer of the nano-scratched and indented Pyrex 7740 glass surface was investigated. In this study, effects of indentation and scratch process with etching time on the morphologies of the indented and scratched surfaces after isotropic etching were investigated from an angle of deformation energies.
