Announcing the Second Multi-Project LIGA run MCNC, in conjunction with the University of Wisconsin, and with support from ARPA, is pleased to announce the second multiproject LIGA run scheduled for this fall/winter. This run will feature 2 distinct processes, both completely releasable. One process will be a 150 micron tall electroplated nickel process with a milled final surface. This process can be used for all/any structures with a minimum line width of 5.0 microns or greater, AND a length-to-width aspect ratio of 10.0 or less. The second process, which is offered specifically to accommodate those participants interested in producing gratings, is a 30 micron tall electroplated nickel process. The top surface will not be milled. This process has also has a 5.0 micron minimum geometry, but has no length-to-width aspect ratio restriction. Detailed design rules and layout examples will be provided to all interested users. Contact koester@mcnc.org, 919 248 1493 for LIGA rules (rule handouts will be available starting week of sept 5) and reservations. The design deadline is OCTOBER 31, 1994. Layout support is available (contact cowen@mcnc.org, 919 248 1424). If you desire layout support from MCNC, your design requirements are due NO LATER THAN OCTOBER 17th. The run cost is $600. Five (5) die will be delivered. The number of available die are limited, reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis. Payment is due with your design submission. Please DO NOT CONTACT THE UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN for information, reservations or rules. All activity will be handled by MCNC.
