• 三、Electrochemical Reaction of Riboflavin at Carbon-nanotubes/Ni Composite Modified Electrode (CNCME) Fabricated by Composite Electro- deposition of Carbon-nanotubes and Ni Matrix
  • Abstract.The paper focuses on the electrochemical behavior of riboflavin (vitamin B2, RF) at carbon-nanotubes(CNTs)/Ni composite modified electrode (CNCME) fabricated by composite electro-deposition of CNTs and Ni matrix. The cyclic voltammetry (CV) is used to compare the electro-catalysis activity of the CNCME and the conventional CNTs modified electrode (CNTME). The CNCME exhibits a marked enhancement of the current response and a reduction of the voltage peak difference. The oxidation-reduction reaction for different PHs and different RF concentrations are discussed. In phosphate buffer solution, there is a good linear relationship between oxidation and reduction peak current and RF concentration in the range from 10-4 to 10-6mol/L with a detection limit of 3.5×10-7mol/L. After fifty CV cycles in RF, the relative standard deviation is only 4.71% for the voltage peak, which indicates that the CNCME has a good reproducible and stable surface.

  • Abstract. Since the small inter-electrode gap (IEG), high current density applied, high heat generated and redundant reaction product, the convection of electrolyte in IEG becomes an important factor for the stability of electrochemical micro-machining (EMM) in manufacturing engineering. In this paper, a novel structure of cathode used in EMM is presented. The proper experimental parameters are established from the simulated results. The hollow cathode, which is much more conductive to the flow, has been designed and fabricated on the basis of non-silicon surface micro-machining technology. The experimental test showed the improvement of current stability, and is consistent with the numerical simulations.

  • Abstract. In this paper, the effects of a hollow structure of cathode tool and radial flow of electrolyte on heat removal are studied using COMSOL software. Amulti-physics (electrical field, flowfield and heat transfer) model, which implement the bilateral interactions with customized PDE, is proposed to simulate the EMM process with a moving cathode tool. The ALE method is used to track the moving interface. The simulations show that the electrolyte flow rate and flushing time are the most important factors for the heat removal. A hollow structure of the cathode tool is proposed to improve the stability of flow rate, which will remove the heat generated during the EMM process effectively.

• 十三、Design and Fabrication of Cu-TSV Free-standing Specimen for Uniaxial Micro-tensile Test
  • Abstract.A novel test sample with a micro scale free-standing specimen of Cu-TSV used for uniaxial micro-tensile test is presented in this paper. Design of a deformation-buffer reticular supporting frame of the test sample effectively reduces the deformation of Cu-TSV thin film during clamping operation. The stress resulting from electrodepositon process is minimized by fabricating Cu-TSV thin film on surface-treated titanium seed layer. The process of titanium seed layer avoids alkali corrosion and simplifies fabrication procedure compared with that of the traditional Cr/Cu seed layer. Both finite-element method (FEM) simulation and experimental results indicates the advantages of this new design. The test sample fabricated by the optimized process well coordinates with our micro-tensile system. The Young’s modulus and the ultimate tensile strength of tested Cu-TSV thin film measured by our micro-tensile system are 25.4~32.9GPa and 574~764MPa, respectively.

• 十四、A Multidirectional-Sensitive Inertial Microswitch with Electrophoretic Polymer-metal Composite Fixed Electrode for Flexible Contact
  • Abstract. A multidirectional-sensitive inertial microswitch with polymer-metal composite fixed electrode has been designed and fabricated based on surface micromachining in the present work. The microswitch can sense the applied accelerations from any directions in xoy plane and positive z-axis. Its vertical composite fixed electrode is completed by electroplating and electrophoretic deposition, which can realize a flexible contact between the electrodes and eliminate the bouncing phenomenon and prolong the contact time. As a result, the stability and reliability of the inertial switch could be greatly improved. The test results show that the threshold acceleration of the fabricated prototype is generally uniform(~70g) in different sensitive directions in x-o-y plane and z-axis. The contact time of the microswitch with composite fixed electrode is ~110µs in vertical direction, which is longer than that (~65µs) of one without polymer.

• 十五、Design and characterisation of an inertial microswitch with electrophoretic polymer–metal composite fixed electrode for extending contact time
  • Abstract. Based on non-silicon surface micromachining, a single sensitive direction (z-axis) inertial microswitch with electrophoretic polymer–metal composite fixed electrode has been designed and characterised in the present work. The microswitch mainly consists of two parts: a suspended proof mass as movable electrode and maple leaf-like top as vertical electrode. When an acceleration (threshold level or over) is applied to the switch along its sensitive direction, the mass electrode will rapidly move towards and touch the vertical fixed electrode, switching on the external circuit. The vertical composite fixed electrode of the microswitch can realise a flexible contact, decrease bounce and extend the contact time between the electrodes. The fabricated microswitches have been characterised by a standard dropping test. The threshold acceleration of the prototype is about 70 g while the contact time is about 110 ms, longer than that (about 65 ms) without a polymer.

The microswitch mainly consists of a suspended proof mass as a movable electrode and a T-shaped structure on the substrate with maple leaf-like top and cantilevers around the central cylinder as vertical and lateral fixed electrodes. It can sense the applied shock accelerations from any radial direction in the x-o-y plane and z-axis.

As a result, the stability and reliability of the inertial switch could be greatly improved. The fabricated microswitches have been tested and characterized by a standard dropping hammer system. It is shown that the threshold acceleration of the prototype is generally uniform in different sensitive directions in the x-o-y plane and z-axis, which is about 70 g. The contact time of the microswitch with the composite fixed electrode is ∼110 μs in the vertical direction, which is longer than that (∼65 μs) without a polymer. The test data are in agreement with dynamic finite-element simulation results.
