A mask used for a Lithographie, Galvanofomung, and Abformung (LIGA)
process, a method for manufacturing the mask, and a method for
manufacturing a microstructure using a LIGA process. The method for
manufacturing the microstructure using the LIGA process contemplates
forming a substrate for the microstructure, a plurality of photosensitive
layers, each photosensitive layer having a plating hole and an aligning
pinhole, and an aligning pin capable of being inserted into the aligning
pinhole, with the aligning pinholes of the photosensitive layers being
formed in corresponding positions, and repeating a process of stacking
the photosensitive layer on the substrate for the microstructure and a
process of forming a plating layer by plating the plating hole of the
stacked photosensitive layer with a metal for a number of times
corresponding to the number of the photosensitive layers, and when the
photosensitive layers are stacked on the substrate for the structure, the
photosensitive layers being aligned with one another by inserting the
aligning pin into the aligning pinholes of all the photosensitive layers
stacked on the substrate for the microstructure to penetrate all the
photosensitive layers.
