In this study, a micro-glucose sensor was fabricated by micromachining technology and its sensing characteristics were investigated. The 7740 pyrex glass was used as the bottom substrate and anisotropically etched silicon wafer was used as the top substrate. The size of the fabricated microchip is 1.58${\times}$1.58mm$^2$. It is shown that output current exhibits a linear change according to glucose concentration (100 mM ∼ 300 mM). It is also shown that the response time for glucose was within 240 sec. It was followed by a saturation trend within 50 sec. The g1ucose sensor with Fc$\^$+/ exhibits relatively higher sensitivity than that without Fc$\sub$+/ for output current.

In this study, we propose an optimal design and new fabrication method for a slim tactile sensor. Slim tactile sensor can detect 3-axial forces and has suitable flexibility for intelligent robot fingers. To amplify the contact signal, a unique table-shaped structure was attempted. A new layer-by-layer fabrication process for polymer micromachining that can make a 3D structure by using a sacrificial layer was proposed. A table-shaped epoxy sensing plate with four legs was built on top of a flexible polymer substrate. The plate can convert an applied force to a concentrated stress. Normal and shear forces can be detected by combining responses from metal strain gauges embedded in the polymer substrate. The optimal positions of the strain gauges are determined using the strain distribution obtained from finite element analysis.

Film Bulk Acoustic wave Resonator (FBAR) using thin piezoelectric films can be made as monolithic integrated devices with compatibility to semiconductor process, leading to small size and low cost, high Q RF circuit elements with wide applications in communications area. This paper presents a MMIC compatible suspended FBAR using surface micromachining. Membrane is composed $Si_3N_4SiO_2Si _3N_4$ multi layer and air gap is about 50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Firstly, We perform one dimensional simulation applying transmission line theorem to verify resonance characteristic of the FBAR. Process of the FBAR is used MEMS technology. Fabricated FBAR resonate at 2.4GHz, $K^2_{eff}$ and Q are 4.1% and 1100.

A flexible three-axial tactile sensor was fabricated on Kapton polyimide film using polymer micromachining technology. Nichrome (Ni:Cr = 8:2) strain gauges were positioned on an etched membrane to detect normal and shear loads. The optimal positions of strain gauges were determined through strain distribution from finite element analysis. The sensor was evaluated by applying normal and shear loads from 0 N to 0.8 N using an evaluation system. Sensitivity of the tactile sensor to normal and shear loads was about 206.6 mV/N and 70.1 mV/N, respectively. The sensor showed good linearity, and its determination coefficient ($R^2$) was about 0.982. The developed sensor can be applied in a curved or compliant surface that requires slip detection and flexibility, such as a robotic fingertip.

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and testing of polysilicon electrostatic microactuators that resonate in the direction parallel to the silicon susbstrates. A set of six different designs has been developed using a theoretical model and design formulae developed for the mocroactuators. Microactuator prototypes are fabricated from a 2.1 $\mu{m}$-thick LPCVD polysilicon film, using a 4-mask surface-micromachining process. The prototypes are tested under a d.c. bias voltage of 45V with an a.c. drive voltage amplitude of 20 v.Measured resorant frequencies are in the ranges of 40-60 kHz, showing a good agreement to their theoretical estimates within error bounds of .$\pm$.5%. Important issues inthe design and microfabrication of the microactuators are discussed, together with potential applicaitons of the key technology involved.

Electrochemical micromachining which is not normally considered as a precision process is presented in this paper. The application of voltage Pulses between a tool electrode and a workpiece in an electrochemical environment allows the three-dimensional machining of conducting materials with micrometer precision. In this paper tool-electrodes($5\mu\textrm{m}$ in diameter, 1mm in length) are developed by electrochemical micromaching and micro holes are manufactured using this tool-electrodes we developed already. Micro holes are achieved the accuracy below $50\mu\textrm{m}$ in diameter using ultrashort voltage pulses(0.1-5$\mu\textrm{s}$).

The mechanical etching technique has recently been developed to a powder blasting technique for various materials, capable of producing micro structures larger than 100$\mu$m. This paper describes the performance of powder blasting technique in micro-pocketing of stainless steel and the effect of the number of nozzle scanning and the nozzle height on the depth and width of pockets. Experimental results showed that increasing the no. of nozzle scanning and decreasing the nozzle height resulted in the increase of depth and width in pockets. Increase of width results from wear of mask film.

Light Guide Panel(LGP) is a key part of backlight unit(BLU) which transforms line-light of lamp to surface-light. Dot pattern is formed on the injected LGP surface by screen printing. This dot pattern is composed of several ten thousands micro dots of diameter 150-180$\mu\textrm{m}$ or so. The dot patterning by screen printing causes low productivity and low performance of TFT-LCD. This research develops the micromachining technology for LGP mould which could form micro dot pattern by injection molding, removing the existing screen printing process.

In this paper, laser direct micromaching is developed to fabricate micro patterns using UV laser ( λ$_3$= 355 nm). Experimentally, laser beam paths mainly influences the surface shape quality. Thus. we proposed laser beam path generator by extracting shape data in a blueprint worked through CAD modeler and using genetic algorithm that considers the characteristics of laser beam. The results show that various shapes of micro patterns could be manufactured using proposed method in this paper.

In this paper, we fabricated breathable films on the use of microwave oven by using UV nanosecond laser micromachining, and the number of micro-grooves on the film is controlled for different oxygen transfer rate(OTR). As different number of micro-groove, the breath films of 100,000cc, 120,000cc, and 150,000cc can be fabricated. The breath film package of 120,000cc is used for the experiment of steaming a sweet potato. At the result, the sweet potato is well-cooked with enough moisture in the package not bursted.
