摘要
The adhesion between microstructures represents a great challenge in reliability of polymeric three-dimensional structures fabricated by microstereolithography (muSL). During the evaporative releasing, the capillary force of the solvent causes the deformation and adhesion of the fabricated beams. We present a method to determine the adhesion force of polymeric microstructures fabricated by muSL. The test structures with parallel beams were fabricated and released from the liquid resin via evaporation. By measuring the relationship between the adhesion length and the geometry of the beams, the adhesion force between two 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) polymeric parallel beams is determined as gamma=72+/-5 mN/m. This simple method and the determined adhesion force provide a key in designing reliable polymeric microelectromechanical systems in preventing the stiction problem.
