졸-겔 dip coating법에 의해 제조한 바륨페라이트 박막의 미세구조와 결정학적인 구조 특성에 관해 조사하였다. 기판에 형성된 바륨페라이트 입자는 침상 형태의 입자들로 구성되어 있었으며, C축은 장축 방향이었고, 막 두께가 증가함에 따라 침상형 입자들은 기판에 평행하게 배향하는 경향을 나타내었다. 박막은 바륨페라이트층, Ba, Fe, SiO$_{2}$로 구성되어 있는 중간층, 그리고 기판층인 SiO$_{2}$층으로 구성되어 있었으며, 중간층과 SiO$_{2}$층간의 계면은 Ba 와 SiO$_{2}$간의 화합물로 구성되어 있었다. 침상 형태의 입자는 95$0^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 열처리하므로써 완전히 소실하였고, 130$0^{\circ}C$에서 3시간 열처리하므로써 c면이 기판에 평행하게 위치하는 완전한 육각판상 형태의 입자로 변화되었다.

ZnO(Zinc Oxide) thin films were deposited on glass substrate by Facing Targets Sputtering. Facing Targets Sputtering system can deposit thin films in plasma-free situation and change the sputtering conditions in wide range. The characteristics of ZnO thin films deposited at variation of sputtering conditions films thickness, power and substrate temperature were evaluated by XRD(x-ray diffractometer), ${\alpha}$-step (Tencor). The excellently c-axis oriented ZnO thin films were obtained at sputter pressure ImTorr, power 150W, substrate temperature 200$^{\circ}C$. In these conditions, the rocking curve of ZnO thin films deposited on glass was 3.3$^{\circ}$.

p형 투명 전도막을 만들기 위해 박막화의 가능성 있는 벌크(bulk)상태의 p형 투명 전도 물질을 합성하고, 박막화 하여 p형 투명 전도 물질의 기초적 물성을 조사하여 p형 투명 전도 물질의 개발 가능성을 조사하였다. p-type $CAO_2$ 박막은 열처리를 통하여 얻을 수 있었다. $CAO_2$ 박막은 초기 증착 온도가 $650^{\circ}C$이하에서는 열처리를 통해서도 $CAO_2$상을 얻을 수가 없었고 오직 공기중 분위기에서만 c-axis 배향을 가진 $CuAIO_2$ 단일상 박막을 얻을 수 있었다. $CuAIO_2$ 단일상 박막은 2개의 상이 공존하고 있는 것으로 생각된다.

We demonstrate an alignment technology using an imprinting process on an inorganic NiOx film. The aligned nanopattern was fabricated on a silicon wafer by laser interference lithography. The aligned nano pattern was then imprinted onto the sol-gel driven NiOx film using an imprinting process at an annealing temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. After the imprinting process, parallel grooves had been formed on the NiOx film. Atomic force microscopy and water contact angle measurements were performed to confirm the parallel groove on the NiOx film. The grooves caused liquid crystal alignment through geometric restriction, similar to grooves formed by the rubbing process on polyimide. The liquid crystal cell exhibited a pretilt angle of $0.2^{\circ}$, which demonstrated homogeneous alignment.

We applied a displacement current measurement technique for the study of L-${\alpha}$-dilauryl phosphatidylcholine (DLPC) monolayer. Displacement current was generated at the DLPC monolayer on the water surface, while induced by compression and expansion of the monolayer. Generation of Maxwell displacement current (MDC) was observed when surface areas per DLPC molecule were approximately $200{\AA}^2$ and $40{\AA}^2$. We investigated MDC for monolayer compression cycles, and found that MDC reached the maximum at the molecular area, which was measured right before surface pressure began to increase during compression cycles. The monolayer surface morphology of Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films was characterized using atomic force microscope (AFM). As a result, we measured the result from the microscopic properties shown in the AFM images of LB films that molecules in the monolayer were in good orientations and the thickness of the monolayer ranged from 5 to 10 nm.

Palladium thin films of uniform and highly dense microstructure were prepared by the eletroplating method using novel PdCl$_2$-based plating bath. Principal variables taken into account in this study were the plating temperature and the current density. Electroplated Pd films were characterized for Crystalline orientation, morphology and hardness. The optimal temperature and current density were found be $50^{\circ}C$ and 5mA/$\textrm{cm}^2$, repectively. The measured hardness value for the Pd films when prepared under the optimal condition was as high as 600kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$. A correlation study between variables and properties seems to indicate that the hardness was significantly affected by the microstructure, but not by crystallite orientation.

The effect of H$_2$ content in Ar sputtering gas on exchange coupling field(H$_{ex}$) for NiFe/FeMn interface was studied. When NiFe layer of Si(100)/Ta(50 $\AA$)/NiFe(60 $\AA$)/FeMn(250 $\AA$)Ta(50 $\AA$) was deposited at 8% H$_2$ in sputtering gas, the maximum exchange coupling field(H$_{ex}$) and minimum coercivity(H$_{c}$) were obtained. When Si(100)/Ta(50 $\AA$)/NiFe(60 $\AA$)/FeMn(250 $\AA$)/NiFe(70 $\AA$)/Ta(50 $\AA$) was deposited at 5% H$_2$ in sputtering gas, the maximum exchange coupling field(H$_{ex}$) of 148 Oe was obtained. The (111) preferred orientation and grain size of underlayer NiFe were increased and the internal stress was reduced by H$_2$ in sputtering gas. And the (111) preferred orientation and grain size of FeMn layer were also increased.d.ased.

최근 차세대 디스플레이, 터치스크린, 전자파 차폐 및 흡수 등의 다양한 응용분야에 적합한 소재를 개발하기 위한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현재 주로 사용되는 ITO박막은 희소원소인 인듐의 매장량 한계와 높은 비용이 문제시 되고 있기 때문에, 대체 재료의 개발이 시급하게 요구되고 있다. 탄소나노튜브(CNT)는 금속을 능가하는 이론적인 전기전도도를 갖고 있으며 높은 탄성등의 우수한 기계적 성질을 갖고 있어 다양한 차세대 응용에 있어서 최적의 재료로 주목을 받고 있다. 특히, CNT 기반의 투명전도막은 기존의 ITO 박막 보다 우수한 유연성이 기대되어 더욱 기대를 모으고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 최종 고순도 재료를 얻기까지 합성 및 정제에 많은 공정과 시간이 요구되는 고가의 단층벽 나노튜브(SWNT)를 이용하지 않고, 웨이퍼 기판 위에 수직배향 합성한 상태의 다층벽 나노튜브(MWNT)를 별도의 정제과정 없이 초음파 분산한 뒤, 스프레이 코팅법을 이용하여 고분자 기판 위에 투명전도막을 제작하였고, 이때 각기 다른 길이의 수직배향 MWNT를 이용하여 유연성 투명전도막의 전기적 특성에 미치는 MWNT 길이의 영향에 대해 알아보았다. MWNT는 아세틸렌가스를 이용하여 열CVD법으로 합성하였고, 합성시간을 제어함으로써 길이가 다른 MWNT를 얻을 수 있었다. 투명전도막 제조공정의 단순화를 위하여 이용한 MWNT의 초음파 분산 결과, $500{\mu}m$ 이하 길이의 MWNT에서 분산성이 현저히 빨라지는 것을 확인하였다. 한편, 제작한 MWNT 기반의 유연성 투명전도막은 원자간힘현미경 및 면저항 측정기를 이용하여 막 두께에 따른 면저항 특성을 조사하였다. 그 결과 응용 가능한 면저항을 갖는 MWNT 투명전도막의 두께는 최소 50 nm 이상이어야 함을 알았고, 특히 MWNT등의 접촉점(node) 수에 따른 접촉저항 및 전기전도경로(electric conductivity path)를 고려했을 때 최적의 MWNT 길이가 존재하는 것을 확인하였다.

Partially hydrolyzed cellulose acetate (CA) fibers were prepared by treating CA fibers in aqueous $Na_2CO_3$ solutions of various concentrations. The deacetylation of CA fibers was confirmed through FTIR spectra and WAXD patterns. The hydrolysis was confined to the surface part of the CA fiber by controlling the treatment conditions. The resultant fibers had a sheath-core structure with a sheath component of regenerated cellulose and a core of non-hydrolyzed cellulose acetate. The SEM images of the surface-hydrolyzed CA fibers, the core of which was dissolved out using acetone as the solvent, showed that the sheath thickness increased with increasing alkaline concentration, indicating an increase in the hydrolyzed fiber, i.e., regenerated cellulose. Polarized FTIR analysis of the polyimide film rubbed with velvet fabrics of surface-hydrolyzed CA fibers showed that polyimide molecules were preferentially oriented to the rubbing direction.

The Liquid Crystal (LC) alignment uniformity is very important in LC devices. The alignment mechanism of LC molecules on a rubbed polyimide (PI) surface is very important for both LC fundamental research and application. So, Generally a rubbing method to align LC has been widely used to mass-produce LCD panels. But because rubbing method is contact method between rubbing fabric and indium-tin-oxide glass or flexible substrate, rubbing method has some defects, such as the electrode charges and the creation of contaminating particles. Thus we strongly recommend a non-contact alignment technique for getting rid of some defects of rubbing method. Most recently, the LC aligning capabilities achieved by ion-beam exposure on the organic and nonorganic thin film surface have been reported successfully. In this research, we studied the tilt angle generation and electro-optical performances for a NLC on homeotropic polyimide surfaces with ion-beam exposure. The LC aligning capabilities of a nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on a homeotropic PI surface using a new ion-beam method were studied. On the homeotropic PI surface, the tilt angle of the NLC by exposure ion-beam had a tendency to decrease as increased ion-beam energy density. And, on the homeotropic PI surface, the alignment character of the NLC with respect to ion-beam energy was good. And we achieved satisfactory result for EO character.
