This study presents a numerical model to analyze dynamic thermal behavior of a hot chuck designed for flip-chip bonders. The hot chuck of concern is a heater which has been specifically developed for accomplishing high-speed and ultra-precision soldering. The characteristic features are radiative heat source and the heating tool made of a material of high thermal diffusivity. A physical modeling has been conducted for the network of heat transport. A simplified finite volume model is deviced to simulate time-dependent thermal behavior of the heating tool on which soldering is achieved. The reliability of the proposed numerical model is verified experimentally. A series of numerical tests illustrate the usefulness of the numerical model in design analysis.

본 논문에서는 나노 분해능을 가지면서 수mm의 이송능력을 가지는 AFM용 스캐너의 구현을 위하여 새로운 형태의 더블-벤트 유연 가이드를 연구하였다. Castigliano 이론을 이용하여 유연 가이드의 강성을 구하였으며, 모든 과정은 FEA(Finite Element Analysis)를 통하여 이론의 타당성을 검증하였다. 또한, 더블-벤트 유연 가이드의 성능 검증을 위하여 평면 스캐너의 모델링에 응용하여 보았다. 응용된 평면 스캐너의 구성 요소 성분 변수들은 Double-bent 유연 가이드의 나노 분해능 및 이송 변위의 최대화를 구현함과 동시에 빠른 응답 속도를 보장하기 위해 최적화 설계를 통하여 이루어졌다. 더블-벤트 유연 가이드를 적용한 평면 스캐너 역시 FEA를 통한 검증 단계를 거쳤다.

This paper proposes a grating scanner which is driven by a stack-type piezoelectric element. The mechanism of the grating scanner is based on flexure hinges. Using some constraints, the compliant mechanism is designed and then verified by Finite Element Analysis. The designed compliant mechanism is manufactured by wire electro-discharge machining, and then integrated with a stack-type piezoelectric element for actuation and a capacitance displacement sensor for measuring ultra-precision displacement. Experiments demonstrates the characteristics and the performances of the grating scanner using the terms of working range, resonance frequency, bandwidth and resolution. The grating scanner is applicable to a Moire interferometry for measuring 3-dimensional microscopic surface.

Micro lens especially for optical pick up(Blu-ray) lens module is one of the key products for IT technology. Specific attention has been given to manufacturing of large radius lens but little to small radius less than 2mm diameter with N.A>0.8. This paper deals with a high precision glass molding technology for mass production of Blu-ray pick up lens. Ultra precisely machined tungsten carbide core and glass molding equipments are utilized for forming process. Evaluation was performed in terms of profile accuracy, surface roughness and thickness of fabricated glass lens.

We manufactured a micro CPL by LlGA process, a new conceptual ultra-fine and precise forming method, using X-ray lithography process. We fabricated a BN X-ray mask having properties of good X-ray transmittance and large mechanical strength. Micro CPL was manufactured by dividing into an upper plate and a low plate. Each of plates was bonded by Ag paste screen printing. The upper plate was fabricated on glass wafer to observe flow and phase transformation of cooling solution. The lower plate was manufactured by Cu electroplating for good heat transmission. Precision of inner Parts, micro pin and micro channel, of manufactured micro CPL is under ${\pm}2{\mu}m$.

In order to prevent the defects, the optimum design of the production part, strip process layout, die design, die making and try out etc. are necessary the analysis of effective factors. For example, theory and practice of metal shearing process and it's phenomena, die structure, machine tool working for die making, die materials and it's heat treatment, metal working in field, their know how etc. are included in those factors. In this study, we analyzed whole of data base, theoretical back ground of metal working process, and then performed the progressive die tryout with the screw press. Part2 of this study reveals with ultra precision progressive die design, its making and tryout.

Reactor vessel is one of the most important equipment of Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) with regard to the nuclear safety. Thus reactor vessel must be examined periodically by certified experts. Currently, ultra-sonic(UT) non-destructive inspection is executed on reactor vessel. Two different techniques are used in this inspection. One is using the movable manipulator fixed with the support-guide placed on the vessel, and the other is using mobile robot moving in the vessel. Movable manipulator machine is very heavy, hard to handle, and very expensive. Mobile robot equipment is small and convenient but has a weak point on positional precision. To solve these problems we developed a reactor inspection system based on laser-driven mobile robot. This paper describes the main concept and structure of integrated inspection units and the feature of implemented units.

I show that the WFIRST microlensing survey will enable detection and precision orbit determination of Kuiper Belt Objects (KBOs) down to $H_{vega}=28.2$ over an effective area of ${\sim}17deg^2$. Typical fractional period errors will be ${\sim}1.5%{\times}10^{0.4(H-28.2)}$ with similar errors in other parameters for roughly 5000 KBOs. Binary companions to detected KBOs can be detected to even fainter limits, $H_{vega}=29$, corresponding to R~30.5 and effective diameters D~7 km. For KBOs H~23, binary companions can be found with separations down to 10 mas. This will provide an unprecedented probe of orbital resonance and KBO mass measurements. More than a thousand stellar occultations by KBOs can be combined to determine the mean size as a function of KBO magnitude down to H~25. Current ground-based microlensing surveys can make a significant start on finding and characterizing KBOs using existing and soon-to-be-acquired data.
