A method of fabricating the WMOC using the molding technique is introduced in this paper. The fabrication of WMOC mainly includes data writing with hot embossing method and multilayer bonding with PDMS material. The structure of the WMOC is consisted with Polycarbonate (PC) as the core layer material and Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as cladding layer. The experimental results demonstrate that the molding fabrication method is feasible and effective.展开更多

An advanced readout system fitting for the WMOC is introduced in this paper. The hardware mainly consists of the light source for reading, WMOC, motorized stages addressing unit, microscope imaging unit, CCD detecting unit and PC controlling & processing unit. The movement of the precision motorized stage is controlled by the computer through Visual Basic (VB) language in software. A control panel is also designed to get the layer address and the page address through which the position of the motorized stages can be changed. The WMOC readout system is easy to manage and the readout result is directly displayed on computer monitor.展开更多
