Development of an innovative magnetic-aided roller microtransfer replica process and a study of microstructure array replication

摘要

This study proposed a type of innovative imprint replica process technique, by first developing a magnetic-aided roller microtransfer replica process equipment, and then using polydimethylsiloxane soft mould composite magnetic powder to create a roller for transfer imprint. Using the advantage of the even pressing of a magnetic roller, a microstructure array was used in this innovative manufacturing process for transfer replication study. Research results showed that, the magnetic-aided roller microtransfer machine developed in this study could successfully transfer a roller structure to polycarbonate film, thus resulting in an imprint effect. This study successfully applied this innovative manufacturing technology on a rolling microstructure array, and examined its replicability.
