We demonstrate a novel fabrication technology for the microneedle array that can be used in the medical test field, which is transdermal drug delivery and blood analyte sampling. Previous researchers have used silicon-processed micromachining, a reactive ion etching, and molding techniques for the fabrication of microneedle array. However, these fabrication techniques have somewhat limitations apply to the microneedle array fabrication according to its application. Inclined LIGA process is suggested to overcome these problems. This process provides easier, sharper and longer out-of-plane microneedle array structure than conventional silicon-processed fabrication method did. Additionally, because of the advantage of the LIGA process based on mold fabrication for mass production, the polymer, PMMA(PolyMethylMethAcrylate), based microneedle array is useful as the mold base of nickel electroplating process; on the other hand, silicon-processed microneedle array is used in itself. In this research, we fabricate different types of out-of-plane microneedle array, which have different shape of tip, base and hole structure, using the inclined LIGA process. The fabricated microneedles have proper mechanical strength, height and sharpness to puncture human hand epidermis or dermis with less pain and without needle tip break during penetrating the skin.

폴리머를 이용한 광통신 소자는 실리카를 재료로 사용하는 소자와는 달리 고품질의 박막을 얻는 과정이 단순하고, 소자의 제조단가를 줄일 수 있어 많은 주목을 받고 있다 광통신 소자에 응용되는 여러 폴리머 중에서도 폴리이미드는 PMMA (Poly Methyl MethAcrylate) 등 다른 고분자 물질에 비해서 매우 높은 열적 및 환경적 안정성을 가지고 있는 것으로 알려져 있다. 또한 최근에는 폴리이미드가 가지는 단점인 복굴절과 흡수를 낮추기 위하여 불소기 등을 함유한 폴리이미드가 개발되었으며, 굴절률 조정 또한 용이하게 되었다.

This study was made to examine the electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding effect (SE) of multilayered thin films in which indium-tin oxide(ITO) and Ag were deposited alternately from 3layer to 9 layer on Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate(PMMA) substrate at room temperature using a PF sputtering. We measured optical and electrical characteristics by UV-spectrometer and 4 point probe. The measurement of EMI SE in frequency range from 50MHz to 1.5GHz was performed by using ASTM D4935-89 method. We compared the measured EMI SEs with theoretical simulation data. We obtained relatively low resistivity and high transmittance from the EMI SE multilayers. In this study, we obtain good optical electrical characteristics with a minimun transmittance of about 60% at 550nm wavelength and sheet resistance of $2{\sim}3ohm/sq$., respectivity. Measured EMI SEs were over 50dB and similar to theoretical simulation data.

기존의 비상구 표시등은 20-30(W) 정도의 많은 전력 소모와 2천시간 정도의 짧은 램프 수명 등으로 인해 전기에너지의 소모가 많으며, 부피가 커 시공 및 설치가 어렵다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 도광판을 사용한 비상등의 개발에 관하여 연구하기 위하여 가시광선 투과율이 94%이상으로 높고 가공이 용이한 투명 PMMA(Poly Methyl Meth Acrylate)판에 광반사면을 광학적 시뮬레이션에 의해 설계된 V자형 홈선을 가공하여 비상등의 도광판으로 사용한다. 이 구조는 기존의 비상등에 비해 광이용 효율이 높고, 설계의 자유도가 높아질 것으로 기대된다. 또한, CCFT(Cold Cathode Fluorecent Tube) 램프, 광확산필름, 프리즘필름, 몰드프레임 등을 이용하여 광이용 효율을 극대화하는 구조를 고안하고, 인버터 구동을 위한 주변회로 시스템을 개발하여 초절전형 평판 비상등 시스템의 양산 기술을 확보함을 목적으로 한다. 이로부터 휘도 2000cd/$m^2$, 휘도균일도 90%이상의 특성과 기존의 비상등 대비 전기 에너지 50%이상이 절감 가능한 비상등이 개발될 수 있다.

There have been many technologies and materials proposed for realizing microlens array, and plastic injection is recognized as the most promising one because of several merits such as optical properties, impact resistance, formability, lightening and environmental adaptability. Since PR reflow for injection template fabrication enables the lens shape control easier, and the sample technology more effective for mass production, it lowers the cost, enhances integration, and reduces process steps, which leads to be environmentally benign. However injection of polymers may face the difficulty of formability depending on their properties. In order to overcome the difficulty, fast heating/cooling technology was introduced in this study, and microlenses were fabricated and evaluated. template obtained by PR reflow method was heated and cooled fast during injection to fabricate microlens array. PC and PMMA polymer materials were compared, and it was realized that PMMA showed much better formability due to its lower melting temperature. Injection parameters of pressures and velocities were driven out for injection optimization.

Polymethyl methacrylate is commonly used in the outer lens of automotive rear lamps. However, if the lens warps above the allowable limit, it may lead to faulty connection with the housing, and failure of the assembly. This study investigated the effects of gate diameter and cooling line distance in the mold design for automotive outer lens. The optimal gate diameter and cooling line distance to minimize the warp of the outer lens were derived as 3.0 mm and 50-60 mm respectively, and the cooling temperature to minimize warp was shown to be $60-80^{\circ}C$ (mold surface temperature $48-67^{\circ}C$). A higher cooling temperature may somewhat mitigate the warp, but is undesirable because it may cause injection molding problems, such as sinks. A mold was constructed matching the optimal design and the produced lens properties, particularly the degree of warp, were comparable with the CAE predictions.
