At present, the solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is attracting much attention because it possesses
the highest power generation efficiency among many types of fuel cell, and SOFC emits only …

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are fuel cells made of ceramics. To increase the SOFC energy
density, we developed an SOFC with a wavy electrolyte layer. As a wavy electrolyte has a …

Micro channels made of polymers are commonly used for MEMS and μTAS (micro-total
analysis system) devices. In this research, we developed a process for fabricating a ceramic …

In this study, a micro-patterning process is proposed and developed in order to obtain
various functional properties on the surface of an object. Nano imprint lithography has …

Many organisms have functional microstructured surfaces. Particularly, lotus leaves have
hierarchical dual-scale micro/nanostructures on their surface and exhibit highly water …

In nature, there are living organisms that have functional properties with a special surface
structure. The research has been widely conducted to apply the same functional properties …

The objective of the work reported in this paper is to create multi-scale and hierarchical
surface structures using a simple imprinting process. The hierarchical structures can be …

Nanoimprint lithography is a highly productive process and has an advantage in its
resolution of printed patterns. In this paper, inorganic materials are imprinted using mixtures …

Nanoimprint lithography (NIL) is a technique that transfers a mold pattern of nanometer
order to the surface of a resist material by heating and pressing. NIL is an excellent …

This paper reports simulation of deformation during micro powder imprinting process, which
is a newly developed process to form micro patterned surface on ceramic sheets. The …
