Micromolding methods are most suitable for mass production of plastic microlens and lens array with low cost. Among the procedures related with micromolding of microlens array, fabrication of mold insect which contains micro cavity of lens shape is the most important stage. In this study, nickel mold inserts for 45 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 95 $\mu\textrm{m}$ diameters lens way were fabricated using electroforming process. The mother for metal mold inset was made using reflow method. A micro compression molding with polymer powders was used to test the qualities of the metal mold insets. Micro lens profile and surface roughness was measured by interferometric technique and AFM, respectively. The final molded lens replicated the mother well, and had good surface quality.

Poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG) macromers terminated with diacrylate Iyoups and interpenetrating poly- mer networks(IPN) composed of poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate)(PHEMA) or poly(hydroxyethyl methacrylate-co-hydronypropyl methacrylate-co- N-vinyl pyrrolidone ) [ P( HEM A-co- HPM A-co- NVP) ] and PEG macromer were synthesized with the aim of obtaining protein adsorption resistant soft contact lens. Polymerization of PEC macromer resulted in the formation of cross-linked gels due to the multifunctionality of macromer. Crosslinked P(HEMA) or P(HEMA-co-HPMA-co-WVP) chains were interpenetrated into the cross-linked three-dimensional networks of PEG. It was found that albumin adsorption onto the contact lens prepared by P(HEMA-co-HPMA-co-NVP) /PEG IPW decreases with an increase of molecular weight of PEG. Also, it was found that albumin adsorption onto the both contact lens decreases with an increase of concentration of PEC macromer in the IPN preparation. There are also more adequate in the bioinertnen for the contact lens by P(HEMA)/PEG IPN or P (HEMA-co-HPMA-co-NVP)/PEG IPN than that by P(HEMA) or P(HEMA-co-HPMA-co-NVP)

목적: 본 연구는 천연항균물질인 나린진을 소프트 콘택트렌즈 수지용액에 첨가하여 소프트 콘택트렌즈를 제조하고, 제조된 콘택트렌즈에서 용출된 용액의 광학적 특성과 나린진의 물리화학적인 상태 그리고 식염수에서의 용출 특성 등에 대해 살펴보고자 하였다. 방법: 나린진이 첨가된 콘택트렌즈는 벌크(bulk)중합 방식을 이용하여 제조하였고, 제조된 나린진이 첨가된 콘택트렌즈에서 나린진의 결합상태와 식염수로의 나린진 용출과정, 그리고 시간에 따른 나린진의 용출량 등은 적외선 스펙트럼(IR spectrum)과 고성능 액체 크로마토그래피(HPLC)를 이용하여 살펴보았다. 결과: 나린진이 첨가된 콘택트렌즈에서 나린진의 용출은 일정농도를 유지하면서 약 1개월 동안 지속되었고, 용출된 나린진은 첨가하기 전과 동일한 구조를 유지하고 있었으며 투과율과 같은 광학적 특성 변화는 관찰할 수 없었다. IR spectrum과 HPLC 결과로부터 콘택트렌즈 내에서 나린진의 구조와 결합상태를 확인하였다. 결론: 나린진이 첨가된 콘택트렌즈에서 나린진은 폴리머 분자와 반데르발스(van der Waals) 인력이나 나린진 분자의 수산기 (hydroxyl group)와 약한 수소결합(hydrogen bonding)에 의해 상호 결합되어 있는 것으로 판단되었다. 나린진이 첨가된 콘택트렌즈로부터 나린진은 약 1개월 동안 일정농도씩 꾸준히 용출되었으며 1개월 후에도 하루 동안 용출된 나린진의 농도가 약 10 ppm으로 나타나 일정기간 동안 항균력의 유지가 지속적으로 필요한 소프트 콘택트렌즈의 제조에 나린진을 첨가하는 방법이 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

콘택트렌즈용 하이드로젤로의 단백질 흡착량을 시간에 따라 분석하여 계면으로 확산되는 단백질 흡착 반응속도를 연구하였다. HEMA(hydroxyethylmethacrylate)계열 하이드로젤과 silicone계열 하이드로젤을 단백질(알부민 또는 IgG)용액에 침지시킨 후 단백질 흡착량을 시간에 따라 측정하였다. 모든 하이드로젤로의 단백질 흡착량은 단시간(10분)에 급격히 증가한 후 90분 동안 변화 없이 일정하였다. 빠른 단백질 분자의 확산에도 불구하고 계면에너지 감소는 한 시간 이상 진행되는데 이는 계면 탈수 현상이 한 시간 이상 진행되기 때문으로 이해된다. 계면에너지와 단백질 흡착량의 상관관계를 이해하여 콘택트렌즈 재질로의 단백질 흡착 반응 속도의 메커니즘을 분석하였다.

A new thermal bimorph actuator for large out-of-plane displacement is designed, fabricated and tested. The deflecting beam is composed of polyimide, heater, and polyvinyl difluorides with tetrafluoroethylene (PVDF-TrFE). The large difference of coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of two polymer layers (polyimide and PVDF-TrFE) can generate a significant deflection with relatively small temperature rise. Compared to the most conventional micro actuators based on MEMS (micro-electro mechanical system) technology, a large displacement, over 1 mm at 20 mW, could be achieved. Additionally, we can achieve response time of 14.6 ms, resonance frequency of 12 Hz, and reliability ability of $10^5$ cycles. The proposed actuator can find applications where a large vertical displacement is needed while maintaining compact overall device size, such as a micro zooming lens, micro mirror, micro valve and optical application.

IPMC-EMIM (Ionic Polyer Metal Composites + 1-ethyl-3- methyl imidazolium trifluromethane sulfonate, EMIM-Tfo) is fabricated by substituting ionic liquid for water in Nafion film, which improves water sensitiveness of IPMC and guarantees uniform performance regardless of the surrounding environment. In this paper, we will introduce the design and analysis of AF Lens Actuator using IPMC-EMIM. We will briefly introduce the procedure of fabrication of IPMC-EMIM first, and proceed on to define the necessary variables, analyze performance by changing the value of the variables, make a designed AF Lens Actuator, and measure the performance of one of them.

In this study, lenses are fabricated using various nanomaterials as additives to a silicone polymer made with an optimum mixing ratio and short polymerization time. In addition, PVP is added at a ratio of 1 % to investigate the physical properties according to the degree of dispersion, and the compatibility with hydrophobic silicone and the possibility of application as a functional lens material are confirmed. The main materials are SIU as a silicone monomer, DMA, a hydrophilic copolymer, EGDMA as a crosslinking agent, and 2H2M as a photoinitiator. Holmium (III) oxide, Europium (III) oxide, aluminum oxide, and PVP are used. When Holmium (III) oxide and Europium (III) oxide are added based on the Ref sample, the characteristics of the lens tend to be similar overall, and the aluminum oxide shows a tendency slightly different from the previous two oxides. This material can be used as a silicone lens material with various nano oxides and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) acting as a dispersant.

The purpose of this study is to fabricate an ophthalmic lens by copolymerizing two types of carbon nanotubes and hydrophilic hydrogel lens materials, and to investigate its application as an ophthalmic lens material by analyzing its physical properties and antimicrobial effect. For polymerization, HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), EGDMA (ethylene glycol dimethacrylate), a crosslinking agent, and AIBN (azobisisobutyronitrile), an initiator, are used as a basic combination, and a single-walled carbon nanotube and a single-walled, carboxylic-acid-functionalized carbon nanotube are used as additives. To analyze the physical properties, the water content, refractive index, breaking strength, and antimicrobial effect of the fabricated lenses are measured. The fabricated lenses satisfies all the basic properties of the basic hydrogel ophthalmic lens. The water content increases with increasing amount of additive and decreases with addition of 0.2 % ratio of nanoparticles. The refractive index is inversely proportional to the water content result. As a result of the antimicrobial test of the fabricated lens, the addition of carbon nanotubes shows an excellent antimicrobial effect. Therefore, it is considered that the fabricated lens can be applied as a functional material for basic ophthalmic hydrogel lenses.

Miniaturization of lenses has been widely researched by various scientific and engineering techniques. As a result, micro scaled lens structure could be easily achieved from various fabrication techniques; nevertheless it is still challenging to make nano scaled lenses. This paper reports a novel fabrication method of silicon nanotemplate for nanolens array. The inverse structure of nanolens array was fabricated on silicon substrate by reactive ion etching (RIE) process. This technique has a flexibility to produce different tip shapes using different pattern masks. Once the silicon nano-tip array structure is well-defined using an optimized recipe, it is followed by polymer molding to duplicate nanolens array from the template. Finally, the nanostructures formed on silicon nanotemplate and polymer replica were investigated using FE-SEM and AFM measurements. The nano scaled lens can be manufactured from the same template, also using other replication techniques such as imprinting, injection molding and so on.
