초록

In this study, we developed a process technology to fabricate RFID tag antennas using a one-sheet inlay micro-pattern forming process by press-molding RFID tag antennas on insulation sheet layers, such as polymer films, using ultrasonic longitudinal vibration. In addition, a fine pattern applicable for RFID tag antennas was manufactured using a $25{\mu}m$ thick thin-plate square wire; this is in contrast to the method that uses a conventional round wire. The developed ultrasonic indentation process can be used to fabricate fine pattern of the RFID antenna using one piece of equipment. The simplified manufacturing process technology has a shorter manufacturing time and is more economical. The developed RFID tag antenna forming technique involves pressing the $25{\mu}m$ square wire directly on the thin sheet insulation sheet of maximum thickness $200{\mu}m$, using a 60 kHz ultrasonic tool horn.
