Micro - Manipulation and Micro - Robots

The author and Dr. Masayuki Nakao have been collaborating with clinicians from collegiate hospitals to develop a series of small three-dimensional structures to meet their special needs. So far, we have: (1) Produced microchips for immunologic tests with 10 micron wide reaction grooves. The microchips reduced the testing time down to a hundredth of that of conventional tests. (2) Developed a me...

Micro-layered-photolithography for Micro- Fabrication and Micro-molding

A novel process based on the principle of layered photolithography has been proposed and tested for making three-dimensional micro-structures. An experimental setup was designed and built for doing experiments on this micro-fabrication process. An ultraviolet (UV) excimer laser at the wavelength of 248 nm was used as the light source and a single piece of photo-mask carrying a series of two dim...

response articles: micro and macro analysis

the present study reports an analysis of response articles in four different disciplines in the social sciences, i.e., linguistics, english for specific purposes (esp), accounting, and psychology. the study has three phases: micro analysis, macro analysis, and e-mail interview. the results of the micro analysis indicate that a three-level linguistic pattern is used by the writers in order to cr...

Micro Photovoltaic Modules for Micro Systems

Amorphous silicon based solar modules are very attractive for the powering of various microsystems for both indoor and outdoor applications. This technology offers a lot of flexibility in terms of module design, output voltage, shape, size, choice of substrates and offers also the possibility to embed sensors such as photodiodes. This paper focuses on the development of micro-solar modules with...
