This paper presents the fabrication techniques of microcooling fins for microelectronics applications. The various types of cooling fins have been fabricated on the surface of a silicon wafer (4inch-N type) by using wet etching technique. The designed micro fins and micro channels are considered as an effective method for cooling microelectronics devices generating high heat flux. Further we extensively investigate the design processes fabricating micro fins and channels which can cool the heat generated from high density electronics devices.

The objective of this study is to develop novel method named mechanical and chemical machining technique, which is capable of producing three dimensional patterns of few micrometers in dimension on a silicon wafer without the use of a mask. The strategy is to impart mechanical energy along the path of the pattern to be fabricated on a single crystal silicon by way on introdusing frictional interaction under controlled conditions. Then, the surface is preferentially etched to reveal the areas that have been mechanically energized. Upon completion of the etching process, the three dimensional pattern is produced on the silicon surface. Experiments have been conducted to identify the optimal tool material, geometery, as well as fabrication condition. The new technique introduced in this paper is significantly simpler than the conventional method which require sophisticated equipment and much time.

Surface wettability in terms of the size of the micro nano structures has been examined. To evaluate the influence of the nano structures on the contact angles, we fabricated two different kinds of structures: squarepillar-type microstructure with nano-protrusions and without nano-protrusions. Microstructure and nanostructure arrays were fabricated by deep reactive ion etching (DRIE) and reactive ion etching (RIE) processes, respectively. And plasma polymerized fluorocarbon (PPFC) was finally deposited onto the fabricated structures. Average value of the measured contact angles from microstructures with nanoprotrusions was $6.37^{\circ}$ higher than that from microstructures without nano-protrusions. This result indicates that the nano-protrusions give a crucial effect to increase the contact angle.

Micro pattern is applied to the light guiding plate(LGP) to enhance the uniformity of the brightness of the LCD. The micro cones are molded in intaglio on the surface of the LGP. The surface roughness of each cone was 40nm and 38nm in negative and positive die for laser ablation. In chemical etching, the surface roughness was 25nm, 24nm in negative and positive. And the surface roughness of negative and positive dies were 4nm and 5nm for LIGA-reflow process.

Metal line을 형성하는 방법에는 그라비아 인쇄, 잉크젯 인쇄, photo 공정 후 박막 증착 공정 등을 많이 사용한다. 본 연구에서는 Micro-imprinting 공정과 DFR photo lithography 공정을 통해 음각의 미세한 pattern을 형성한 후 sputtering과 printing을 이용하여 pattern의 filling을 통해 metal line을 구현하는 것을 목표로 하였다. Pattern을 형성한 후 RIE 공정을 통해 기판 표면의 친수성 처리를 하고, SAM 공정을 통해 코팅 막의 소수성 처리를 하였다. Sputtering과 전면 프린팅 및 건조 후 strip 공정을 통해 metal line을 형성하고, 이에 대한 표면 특성과 전기적 특성을 분석하였다.

In this paper, glass cap wafer for MEMS device package is fabricated by using sand blaster dry etcher and Its surface is studied. The surface of dry etched glass is analyzed by using SEM, and many glass particles and micro cracks are observed. If these kind of particles were dropped from glass to the surface of device, It would make critical failure to the operation of device. So, several cleaning and etching methods are induced to remove these kinds of dormant failure mode and optimized condition is found out.

Metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semoiconductor field effect transistor (MFISFETs) were fabricated using CMOS processes. The Pt/SBT/NO combined layers were etched for forming a conformal gate by using Ti/Cr metal masks and a two step etching method, By the method, we were able to fabricate a small-sized gate with the dimension of $16/4{\mu}textrm{m}$ in the width/length of gate. It has been chosen the non-self aligned source and drain implantation process, We have deposited inter-layer dielectrics(ILD) by low pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) at $380^{circ}C$ after etching the gate structure and the threshold voltage of p-channel MFISFETs were about 1.0 and -2.1V, respectively. It was also observed that the current difference between the $I_{ON}$(on current) and $I_{OFF}$(off current) that is very important in sensing margin, is more that 100 times in $I_{D}-V_{G}$ hysteresis curve.

In this paper, we fabricated and evaluated polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS)-based flexible and implantable micro electrodes. The electrode patterning was carried out with the photolithography and chemical etching process after e-beam evaporation of 100 ATi and 1000 A Au. The PDMS substrate was treated by oxygen plasma using reactive ion etching(RIE) system to improve the adhesiveness of PDMS and metal layers. The minimum line width of fabricated micro electrode was 20 $\mu$m. After finished patterning, we did packaging with PDMS and then brought up the electrode's part about 40 $\mu$m with gold electroplating. The Hank's balanced salt solution(HBSS) test was carried out for 6 month for endurance of fabricated micro electrode. We carried out in-vivo test for the evaluation of biocompatibility by implanting electrodes under the ICR mouse skin for 42 days.

In this study, we fabricated the superhydrophobic and super-water-repellent surface with the micro/nano scale structures using simple conventional silicon wet-etching technique and the black silicon method by deep reactive ion etching. These fabrication methods are simple but very effective. Also we reported the droplet impact experimental results on the micro/nano-scaled surface. There are two representative impact behaviors as "rebound" and "fragmentation". We found the transition Weber number between "rebound" and "fragmentation" statements, experimentally. Additionally, we concerned about the dimensionless spreading diameters for our super-water-repellent surface. The novel characterization method was introduced for analysis including the "fragmentation" region. As a result, our super-water-repellent surface with the micro/nano-scaled structures shows the different impact behaviors compared with a reference smooth surface, by some meaningful experiments.
