Micro lens array (MLA) is widely used in information technology (IT) industry fields, for examples such as a projection display, an optical power regulator, a micro mass spectrometer and for medical appliances. Recently, MLA have been fabricated and developed by using a reflow method, micro etching, electroplating, micromachining and laser local heating. Laser local thermal-expansion (LLTE) technology demonstrates the formation of microdots on the surface of polymer substrate, in this paper. We have also investigated the new direct fabrication method of placing the MLA on the surface of a SU-8 photoresist layer. We have obtained the 3D shape of the micro lens processed by UV laser irradiation and have experimentally verified the optimal process conditions.

Polymeric micro lens arrays with diameters of $13\~96\;{\mu}m$ fabricated using the micro-compression molding with electro formed mold inserts. In the present study, the electro forming process was used to make the metallic micro-mold insert for micro-molding of microlens array. The wettability property of the fabricated mold insert was examined by measuring the contact angle of the polymer melt on the mold insert. Microlenses were compression-molded with the fabricated mold insert. The effects of the molding temperature and wettability property on the replication quality of the molded lenses were analyzed experimentally.

Thin tin oxide film with nano-size particle was prepared on silicon substrate by hydrothermal synthetic method and successive sol-gel spin coating method. The fabrication method of tin oxide film with ultrafine nano-size crystalline structure was tried to be applied to fabrication of micro gas sensor array on silicon substrate. The tin oxide film on silicon substrate was well patterned by chemical etching upto 5${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$width and showed very uniform flatness. The tin oxide film preparation method and patterning method were successfully applied to newly proposed 2-dimensional micro sensor fabrication.

On this study, we improved diaphgram for micro speaker performance using Taguchi method in discrete design space. The design of diaphgram has an effect on performance of micro speaker such as, thickness of diaphgram, shape of diaphgram, etc. Therefore this study carried to decide shape of diaphgram and thickness of diaphgram for minimizing 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram using Taguchi method. we showed improved design factors that minimized 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram. Also, 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram for micro speaker is reduced up to 37 percent maintaining twist mode shape. From the results of ANOVA, 2nd natural frequency of diaphgram for micro speaker have an effect on position of the outer curved shape and thickness of diaphgram.

A periodic away of zinc oxide(ZnO) micro-rods as fabricated by using chemical bath deposition and photo-lithography. Vertically aligned ZnO micro-rods array was successfully grown by chemical bath deposition method on ZnO seed layer. The ZnO seed layer was deposited on glass and the patterning was made by standard photo-lithography technique. The selective growth of ZnO micro-rods as achieved with the masked ZnO seed layer. The fabricated ZnO micro rods were found to be single crystalline and have grown along hexagonal c-axis direction of (0002) which is same as the preferred growth orientation of ZnO seed layer.

Plastic microlenses play an important role in reducing the size, weight, and the cost of the systems in the fields of optical data storage and optical communication. In the present study, plastic microlens arrays were fabricated using micro-compression molding process. The design and fabrication procedures for mold insert were simplified by using silicon instead of metal. A simple but effective micro compression molding process, which uses polymer powder, were developed for microlens fabrication. The governing process parameters were temperature and pressure histories and the micromolding process was controlled such that the various defects developing during molding process were minimized. The radius and magnification ratio of the fabricated microlens were $125{\mu}m$ and over 3.0, respectively.

The roll-to-roll (R2R) fabrication method to make micro-scale pillar arrays for biomimetic functionalization of surfaces is presented. Inspired by the micro-structure of plants in nature, a surface with a synthetic micro-scale pillar array is fabricated via maskless photolithography. After the surface is SAM (self-assembled monolayer) coated with trichlorosilane in a vacuum desiccator, it displays a hydrophobic property even in R2R replicas of original substrate, whose properties are further characterized using various pitches and diameters. In order to perform a comparison between the original micro-pattern and its replicas, surface morphology was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy and wetting characteristics were measured via a contact angle measurement tool with a $10{\mu}L$ water droplet. Efficient roll-to-roll imprinting for a biomimetic functionalized surface has the potential for use in many fields ranging from water repelling and self-cleaning to microfluidic chips.

Memory 반도체 Test공정에서 사용되는 Probe Card의 Probing Area가 넓어지면서 종래에 사용되던 Cantilever제품의 사용이 불가능하게 되고, MEMS공정을 사용한 새로운 형태의 Advanced제품이 시장에 출현을 하였다. MEMS형의 제품은 다수의 Micro Spring을 MLC(Multi Layer Ceramic)위에 MEMS 공정을 사용하여 생성하는 방식으로서 MLC는 좁은 지역에 다수의 Pin을 생성 할 수 있는 공간을 만들어 주며, 또 다른 이유는 전기적 특성인 임피던스를 맞추고 다수의 Pin의 압력에 의하여 생기는 하중을 Ceramic기판으로 지탱하기 위한 목적도 있다. 이에 MLC와 같은 전기적 특성을 임피던스를 맞춘 RF-CPCB를 사용하여 작은 면적에 다수의 Pin접합이 가능한 방법을 마련한 후, 이 RF-PCB를 부착하여 Pin의 하중을 받는 Wafer와 유사한 열팽창을 갖는 Substrate를 사용하여 MLC를 대체하여 다양한 온도 조건에서 사용이 가능하며, 복잡하고 공정비가 많이 드는 MEMS 공정에 의한 일괄 Micro Spring 생성 공정을 전주 도금 또는 2D방식의 도금 Pin으로 대체하였으며, Probe Card의 중요한 물리적 특성인 Pin들의 정렬도를 마련하기 위해 Photo Process를 사용한 Wafer로 만든 Wafer Pin Array Frame을 사용하여 2D 제작 Pin을 일괄 또는 부분 접합이 가능한 방법으로 Probe Array Head를 제작하여 이들을 부착하여 Probe Array Head를 이전의 MEMS공정 방법에 비해 쉽고 빠르게 만들어 probe Card를 제작 할 수 있게 되었다.
