| Research Abstract |
Summary of this project is as follows. (1)A Micron sized arm of 1000mum length was designed. (2)Control method was established using 1 degree of freedom of millimeter sized arm of 6000mum length. (3)One degree of freedom of micron sized arm was fabricated on silicon wafer by wet etching method. (4)Lower temperature 500ﾟC for crystalization of TiNi which will contribute on the solution of the problem "TiNi thin film peels off from substrate due to the difference of the rate of expansion", was found. (5)The etching condition for deep etch of Si below the TiNi film was found.
