The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of surface treatment of fractured metal-ceramic crown on bond strength of porcelain repair resin. The specimens were divided into two groups for metal specimens add five groups for porcelain specimens by surface treatment methods. the metal specimens were treated by 2 methods. : micro-sandblasting with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide and grinding with diamond bur. The porcelain specimens were treated by 5 methods : micro-sandblasting with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide, grinding with diamond bur, etching with porcelain etching agent, combination of micro-sandblasting and etching procedure, and combination of grinding and etching procedure. After surface treatment, each specimen was bonded with composite resin and the bond strength was measured and the surface texture was observed by scanning electromicroscope(SEM). The results were as follows : 1. There was significant difference in shear bond strength between metal specimen and prorcelain specimen. 2. Bood strength of metal specimens treated with diamond bur was higher than that treated with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide sandblasting. 3. Bond strength of porcelain specimen treated with diamond bur was higher than that treated with $50{\mu}m$ aluminum oxide sandblasting and porcelain etching agent. 4. There was no significant difference in shear bond strength between the group treated with diamond bur and combined treatment groups respectively. 5. The large undercuts were observed in group treated with diamond bur by SEM.

Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAMs) formed 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 molecules and bio molecules. Recently, there have been many researches on micro patterning using the advantages of very thin thickness and etching resistance of Self-Assembled Monolayers in selective etching of thin metal film. In this report, we present the several machining method to form the nanoscale structure by Mask-Less laser patterning using alknanethiolate Self-Assembled Monolayers such as thin metal film etching and heterogeneous SAM structure formation.

Fabrication methods are shown to produce slender and cylindrical tungsten shafts by electrochemical etching. The shape of microshatf formed by electrochemical etching is determined by the combination of two conflicting factors, i.e., initial shape and diffusion layer. We can obtain a desirable shaft profile by adjusting the thickness gradient of diffusion layer. The diameter of microshaft is controlled by mathematical model based on relation between process parameters and diameter.

Catalytic combustion is one of the suitable methods for micro power source due to high energy density and no flame quenching. Catalyst loading in the micro structured combustion chamber is one of the most important issues in the development of micro catalytic combustors. In this research, to coat catalyst on the chamber wall, two methods were investigated. First, $Al_2O_3$ was selected as a support of Pt and $Pt/Al_2O_3$ was synthesized through the alumina sol-gel procedure. To improve the coating thickness and adhesion between catalyst and substrate, heat resistant and water solvable organic-inorganic hybrid binder was used. Porous silicon was also investigated as a catalyst support for platinum. Through the parametric studies of current density and etching time, fabrication process of $1{\sim}2{\mu}m$ of diameter and about $25{\mu}m$ depth pores was confirmed. Coated substrates were test in the micro channel combustor which was fabricated by the wet etching and machining of SUS 304. Using $Pt/Al_2O_3$ coated substrate and Pt coated porous silicon substrate, conversion rate of fuel was over 95% for $H_2$/Air premixed gas.

과거 PCB 제조 공정의 주된 관심사는 한정된 시간안에 다량의 제품을 생산하기 위한 것에 초점이 맞추어져 있었으나, 최근 중국의 전자산업 시장진출에 따른 PCB 가격 하락 및 원자제 가격 상승으로 인하여 생산 단가를 낮출 수 있는 방법으로 시선을 돌리고 있다. 특히, PCB 제조 공정에서, 생산 가격을 낮출 수 있는 방법중 가장 큰 비중을 차지하고 있는 것은, 습식 에칭 시 사용되는 용액(에칭액)의 사용 양을 제어함으로써, 화학 약품의 구입에 따른 비용 및 사용된 약품을 처리하는 비용을 줄일 수 있는 방법을 찾으려 노력하고 있다. 그러나, 애칭액을 효율적으로 제어하기 위해서는 여러 센서에서 나오는 데이터를 통합하여 진단할 수 있는 시스템이 필요하다. 그러나, 센서에 의한 데이터가 다양함에 제어 알고리듬이 복잡함에 따라 효율적인 제어 시스템이 개발되기 힘들다는 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이점에 착안하여, 인공지능 알고리듬을 이용한 애칭액 신액 투입조건을 실시간으로 제어 할 수 있는 시스템을 제안한다. 제안된 시스템을 사용하여, 애칭액을 균일하게 유지함에 따라 애칭액의 사용량을 줄일 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 폐액을 일정하게 관리할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Recently, the minimum line width shows a tendency to decrease and the multi-level increase in semiconductor. Therefore, a planarization technique is needed and chemical mechanical polishing(CMP) is considered as one of the most suitable process. CMP accomplishes a high polishing performance and a global planarization of high quality. But there are several defects in CMP such as micro-scratches, abrasive contaminations, and non-uniformity of polished wafer edges. Wet etching include of Spin-etching can improve he defects of CMP. It uses abrasive-free chemical solution instead of slurry. On this study, ILD(INterlayer-Dielectric) was removed by CMP and wet-etching methods in order to investigate the superiority of wet etching mechanism. In the thin film wafer, the results were evaluated at a viewpoint of material removal rate(MRR) and within wafer non-uniformity(WIWNU). And pattern step height was also compared for planarization characteristics of the patterned wafer.

Luminous efficiency and uniformity in a LCD-BLU are mainly determined by fine scattering patterns formed on the light guide panel. We propose a novel fabrication method of 3-dimensional scattered patterns based on anisotropic etching of silicon wafers. Micro-pyramid patterns with 70.5 degree apex-angle and micro-prism patterns with 109.4 degree apex-angle can be self-constructed by the wet, anisotropic etching of (100) and (110) silicon wafers, respectively, and those patterns are easily duplicated by the PDMS replica process. Experimental results on spatial and angular distributions of irradiation from the light guide panel with the micro-pyramid patterns were very consistent with the calculation results. Surface roughness of the silicon-based micro-patterns is free from any artificial defects since the micro-patterns are inherently formed with silicon crystal surfaces. Therefore, we expect that the silicon based micro-patterning process makes it possible to fabricate perfect 3-dimensional micro-structures with crystal surface and apex angles, which may guarantee mass-reproduction of the light guide panels in LCD-BLU.

We describe the preparation of highly-ordered etching pits on the Nb foil through a micromachining. The effects of electrochemical polishing on the formation of uniformly-patterned protective epoxy layer was investigated. Unlike the previous process using $O_2$ plasma, well-ordered etched pits were prepared without any dry processes. As a result, the Nb foil with the well-ordered pits of $10{\mu}m{\times}5{\mu}m$ could be obtained by electrochemical etching in methanolic electrolytes for 10 min.

This paper reports on the development of high aspect ratio structure and 3-D integrated process for MEMS-based micro gas turbines. To manufacture high aspect ratio structures, Deep Reactive Ion Etching (DRIE) process have been developed and optimized. Specially, in this study, structures with aspect ratios greater than 10 were fabricated. Also, wafer direct bonding and Infra-Red (IR) camera bonding inspection systems have been developed. Moreover, using glass/silicon wafer direct bonding, we optimized the 3-D integrated process.
