Self-Assembled Monolayers(SAMs) by alkanethiol adsorption to thin metal film are widely being investigated for applications as coating layer for anti-stiction or friction reduction and in fabrication of micro structure of molecular and bio molecular. Recently, there have been many researches on micro patterning using the advantages of very thin thickness and etching resistance in selective etching of thin metal film of Self- Assembled Monolayers. In this report, we present the micromachining thin metal film by Mask-Less laser patterning of alknanethiolate Self-Assembled Monolayers.

Photopolymer films containing fluorescent anthracene polymer, polymethyleneanthracene (PMAn), were prepared with different concentrations of PMAn for holographic recording useful for security documents. The fluorescent photopolymer film showed enhanced fluorescent intensity due to the micro-separation which arose from grating formation and diffusion during photopolymerization. Experimental values of diffraction efficiency were well matched to the simulated values for photopolymers having different PMAn concentrations. Holography patterning was carried out using the fluorescent photopolymer under a photo-mask. A grating was confirmed using microscope techniques in the recorded area under the pattern. Importantly the recorded area showed enhanced fluorescence compared to the unrecorded part, allowing fluorescence patterns at micro scale along with the submicron grating pattern. The fluorescence pattern recorded on the photopolymer film provides additional readability of holographic reading and thus is useful for secure recording and reading of information.

Block Copolymer lithography는 deep nano-scale device 제작을 위한 기존의 top-down방식의 photo-lithography를 대체할만한 기술로 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. polystyrene(PS)/poly-methyl methacrylate (PMMA)로 구성된 BCP의 nano-scale PS mask는 일반적인 플라즈마 공정에 쉽게 damage를 입는다. 중성빔 식각을 이용하여 식각 공정 중 발생하는 BCP의 degradation을 감소시키고, 비등방성 식각 profile을 얻을 수 있으며 sidewall roughness(SWR)와 sidewall angle(SWA)가 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다.

This paper reports on the fabrication and characteristics of recessed gate GaN MESFETs fabricated using a photoelectrochemical wet etching method. The unique etching process utilizes photo-resistive mask and KOH based etchant. GaN MESFETs with successfully recessed gate structure was characterized in terms of dc and RF performance. The fabricated GaN MESFET exhibits a current saturation at $V_{DS}$ = 4 V and a pinch-off at $V_{GS}$ =-3V The peak drain current of the device is about 230mA/mm at 300 K and the value is remained almost same for 500K operation. The $f_{T}$ and $f_{max}$ from the device are 6.357Hz and 10.25 GHz, respectively.y.y.

This paper was developed and described core-process to implement low on resistance which was the most important characteristics of SJ (super junction) MOSFET. Firstly, using process-simulation, SJ MOSFET optimal structure was set and developed its process flow chart by repeated simulation. Following process flow, gate level process was performed. And source and drain level process was similar to genral planar MOSFET, so the process was the same as the general planar MOSFET. And then to develop deep trench process which was main process of the whole process, after finishing photo mask process, we developed deep trench process. We expected that developed process was necessary to develop SJ MOSFET for automobile semiconductor.

Photoelectrodeposition of copper on semiconductive B-doped diamond films was investigated. There are cleasr morphology differences between photodeposited copper and electrodeposited copper. Photoelecrodeposition proceeded as uniform 2-dimensional growth. On the other hand electrodeposition proceeded as scarce random deposition. By applying this effect we have succeeded in forming a conductive pattern on semiconductive B-doped diamond with the aid of a photo-mask. And it was suggested that the surface reforming caused by photoelectrochemical process could be easily detected by the following metal (copper) deosition method, which is demonstrated as 'Diamond photographic phenomenon'.

Touch Screen Panel (TSP) is a widely used personal handheld device and as a large display apparatus. This study examines micro bump fabrication technology for TSP test process. In the testing process, as TSP is changed, should make a new micro bump for probing and modify the testing program. In this paper we use a maskless lithography system to confirm the potential to fabricatemicro bump to reducecost and manufacturing time. The requiredmaskless lithography system does not use a mask so it can reduce the cost of fabrication and it flexible to cope with changes of micro bump probing. We conducted electro field simulation by pitches of micro bump and designed the lithography pattern image for the maskless lithography process. Then we conducted Photo Resist (PR) patterning process and electro-plating process that are involved in MEMS technology to fabricate micro bump.

Titanium sheet metal substrates used in thin film batteries were wet etched and their surface area was increased in order to increase the discharge capacity and power density of the batteries. To obtain a homogeneous etching pattern, we used a conventional photolithographic process. Homogeneous hemisphere-shaped wells with a diameter of approximately $40\;{\mu}m$ were formed on the surface of the Ti substrate using a photo-etching process with a $20\;{\mu}m{\times}20\;{\mu}m$ square patterned photo mask. All-solid-state thin film cells composed of a Li/Lithium phosphorous oxynitride (Lipon)/$LiCoO_2$ system were fabricated onto the wet etched substrate using a physical vapor deposition method and their performances were compared with those of the cells on a bare substrate. It was found that the discharge capacity of the cells fabricated on wet etched Ti substrate increased by ca. 25% compared to that of the cell fabricated on bare one. High discharge rate was also able to be obtained through the reduction in the internal resistance. However, the cells fabricated on the wet etched substrate exhibited a higher degradation rate with charge-discharge cycling due to the nonuniform step coverage of the thin films, while the cells on the bare substrate demonstrated a good cycling performance.

Multi-channel images of 11-MUA and 11-MUOH self-assembled monolayers were obtained by using two-dimensional surface plasmon resonance (SPR) absorption. Patterning process was simplified by exploiting direct photo-oxidation of thiol bonding (photolysis) instead of conventional photolithography. Sharper images were resolved by using a white light source in combination with a narrow bandpass filter in the visible region, minimizing the diffraction patterns on the images. The line profile calibration of the image contrast caused by different resonance conditions at each points on the sensor surface (at a fixed incident angle) enables us to discriminate the monolayer thickness in sub-nanometer scale. Furthermore, there is no signal degradation such as photo bleaching or quenching which are common in the detection methods based on the fluorescence.

The basic design structure of RC-GCTs (Reserve-Conducting Gate-Commutated Thyristors) is firstly given in this paper. The bulk of wafer is punch-through (PT) type with high resistivity and narrow N-base width. The photo-mask was designed upon the turn-off characteristics of GCT and solution of separation between GCT and diode part. The center part of Si wafer is free-wheeling diode (FWD) and outer is GCT part which has 240 fingers totally. The switching performance of GCT was investigated by Dessis of ISE. The basic manufacture process of 2500V-4500V RC-GCTs was given in this work. Additionally, the local carrier lifetime control by 5Mev proton irradiation was adopted so as to not only to have the softness of reverse recovering for FWD but for reduction of turn-off losses of GCT as well.
