Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is titled "Fabricating process of non-gap 3-D microstructure array mold core." This innovative process involves several steps, starting with the coating of a buffer layer on a substrate. A photomask layer is then applied, followed by the formation of a pattern through photo-lithography. The patterned photomask undergoes a reflow process, resulting in a microstructure array that is subsequently coated with a metal conductive layer. The microgaps in the array are eliminated using an electrocasting layer, leading to the creation of a non-gap microstructure array mold core, which can be utilized in metal molding tools through microinjection molding or microthermo-pressure molding.
Another significant patent is the "Method for fabricating integrated micro spherical lens for optical fiber switch and the device made therefrom." This invention outlines a fabrication process for creating an integrated micro spherical lens specifically for optical switches. The process employs a semiconductor micro imaging technique and a wet-etching method to form V-shape grooves and mesas on a base's surface. Further micro imaging, etching, and heat tempering processes are utilized to develop a micro spherical lens on the mesa, allowing for precise arrangement of the integrated micro spherical lens and fiber array.
