Micro Nano Integrated Devices Lab. (MiNIDeL)

 
 

Micro Nano Integrated Devices Lab.(MiNIDeL) or previously Microsystem Lab.(MSL) has been established since 1995 by Prof. Sugiyama Susumu, the director. The research of integrated sensors, microactuators, microsystems, LIGA technology and micro packaging have been being developed in MiNIDeL. We are aiming on design and fabrication technology of MEMS devices (MEMS is Micro-ElectroMechanical Systems that has advantages in scaling, performance and cost compared to technology of conventional devices) and materials especially for LIGA process.

Main researches are micro/nano fabrication of transducers. Some of Mechanical, Thermal, Electrical, Physical, and Bio-medical techniques have been employed here for designs and fabrications of microfluidic-, microoptics-devices, sensors and actuators. The details can be found on Research section or contact to MiNIDeL staffs.

LIGA for High Aspect Ratio MicroStructure(HARMS) is also one of our main projects. The SR center in our university, Ritsumeikan provides a synchrotron radiation(SR) X-ray source, AURORA. The PCT (Plain pattern to Cross section Transfer) technique is our novel deep X-ray lithography technology. X-ray resist materials for LIGA process are investigated in our laboratory.
