In this study, the sensor response and sensitivity is experimented and analyzed quantitatively by the line numbers of chlorine ion reaction type corrosion sensor that is developed. The sensor response of the developed corrosion sensor is verified with properties of chlorine ion. The multilineal sensor is shown a large resistance change more than the single line sensor by damage of the sensor. And, the resistance change of sensor is as large as high concentration of NaCl aqueous solution, the sensitivity of multilineal sensor is higher than single line sensor's, and the depth of sensor's location is as large as the increasing of resistance change time (cycle). These results suggest that, the developed corrosion sensor could sense corrosion reaction, sensor sensitivity and change of resistance for chloride ion. Especially, It was judged that 7 line sensor was the most superior for monitoring chloride ion immigration into concrete.

그래핀은 이차원의 탄소 원자들이 벌집구조를 이루는 탄소 원자 한 층의 물질이다. 우수한 기계적, 전기적, 광학적 특성으로 인해 투명전극, 가스 센서, 트랜지스터 등과 같이 다양한 응용이 가능하고 연구가 행해지고 있다. 최근 몇 년 동안, 그래핀의 우수한 특성을 이용해서 마이크로센서나 신축성 있는 전자소자를 위한 전도막과 같은 응용이 시도되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화학기상증착법 (CVD)으로 합성한 그래핀을 이용해서 암모니아 가스 센서 소자를 제작, 센서 특성을 관찰하였다. 구리 기판을 이용하여 화학기상증착법으로 그래핀을 합성하였으며 진공로에서 수소(H2)와 메탄(CH4) 가스를 사용하였다. 그래핀 합성 온도, 가스 유량 등을 변화시키며 그래핀을 합성하고, 합성된 그래핀을 구리기판을 식각용액을 이용해 제거하는 방법으로 그래핀을 전사시키는 공정거쳐 Au/Ni 전극패턴 위에 전사시킴으로 가스 센서 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 센서 소자를 이용해 상온에서 암모니아(NH3) 가스의 유량을 변화시키며 실험하였다. 암모니아 가스가 흐를 때 그래핀에 암모니아 분자가 흡착되어 그래핀의 전기저항을 증가시켜 이를 이용해서 암모니아 가스를 감지할 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제작한 소자는 상온에서 암모니아 가스에 민감하게 반응했으며 이는 기존의 금속산화물을 이용한 암모니아 센서는 대부분 고온에서 작동하는 점과 비교 하였을 때 가스 센서 소자로써 큰 장점이라고 할 수 있다.

압력센서는 몇 가지 센싱 메카니즘을 가지고 있으므로 종류가 다양하고 크기 변에서도 여러 가지가 이용되고 있다. 최근에는 센싱 부분이 작으며 제어부분도 포함되는 ASIC화된 센서 시스템이 개발되고 있다. 여기에 이용되는 대부분의 탄성물질은 힘을 받았을 때 물질 내부의 벌크에서 저항 값이 변화하는 특성을 갖고 있다. 이러한 특성은 피에조 저항률(piezoresistivity)로 언급되며 스트레인 게이지의 감도에 영향을 주는 중요한 요소로 작용한다. 다이어프램으로 금속대선 세라믹을 사용하면 안정성이 우수한 특정을 가칠 수 있으며, 부식성 가스 류 및 화학성분에 대해서 내성이 강하고 환경변화에 따른 변형과 공정의 단순화 등 우수한 특성을 갖고 있는 것이 큰 장점이다. 센싱부는 산화 루세니움($RuO_2$)을 주 성분으로 하는 분말을 Paste화 하여 다이어프램 위에 스크린 프린팅을 하여 기본성능을 나타내었으며 특히, 상품화에서 중요한 일반성능에서는 온도 특성에 대한 Span 과 Offset 그리고 공정의 단순화에 대해서 고찰을 하였다.

Copper(II) oxide (CuO), electroless plated on a nitrogen-containing carbon sponge prepared by a melamine sponge thermal treatment, was developed as a nitric oxide (NO) gas sensor that operates without a wafer. The CuO content on the surface of the carbon sponge increased as the plating time increased, but the content of nitrogen known to induce NO gas adsorption decreased. The untreated carbon sponge showed a maximum resistance change (5.0%) at 18 min. On the other hand, the CuO plated sample (CuO30s-CS) showed a maximum resistance change of 18.3% in 8 min. It is considered that the improvement of the NO gas sensing capability was caused by the increase in hole carriers of the carbon sponge and improved movement of electrons due to CuO. However, the NO gas detection resistance of the CuO electroless plated carbon sponge for 60 s decreased to 1.9%. It is considered that the surface of the carbon sponge was completely plated with CuO, resulting in a decrease in the NO gas adsorption capacity and resistance change. Thus, CuO-plated carbon sponge can be used as an effective NO gas sensor because it has fast and excellent resistance change properties, but CuO should not be completely plated on the surface of the carbon sponge.

The physical and electrical characteristics of MgO and Pt thin-films on it, deposited by reactive sputtering and rf magnetron sputtering, respectively, were analyzed with annealing temperature and time by four-point probe, SEM and XRD. Under annealing conditions of $1000^{\circ}C$ and 2 hr, MgO thin-film had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to $SiO_2$ and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin-film, and the sheet resistivity and the resistivity of Pt thin-film deposited on it were $0.1288\;{\Omega}/{\square}$ and $12.88\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, respectively. We made Pt resistance pattern on $SiO_2$/Si substrate by lift-off method and fabricated thin-film type Pt-RTD(resistance thermometer device) for micro thermal sensors by Pt-wire, Pt-paste and SOG(spin-on-glass). In the temperature range of $25{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, the TCR value of fabricated Pt-RTD with thickness of $1.0{\mu}m$ was $3927\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ close to the Pt bulk value. Resistance values were varied linearly within the range of measurement temperature.

태양전지, 터치센서와 같이 투명한 전극(TCO: Transparent conducting oxide)이 필요로 하는 곳에는 금속 산화물 형태의 ITO, ZnO, FTO와 같은 투명 전극이 사용된다. 그중에서 FTO는 저렴한 가격과 높은 투과율, 낮은 저항으로 주목을 받고 있다. 뿐만아니라 FTO 박막은 다른 산화물 전도체에 비해 구부림에 강한 저항성을 보여 주고 있다. FTO 박막의 캐리어 전하 생성 원리는 F 원자가 O 원자의 자리를 치환하게 되면서 잉여 전자의 발생으로 전기가 흐를 수 있다. 아직까지는 화학적 조성비에 유리한 CVD를 이용한 증착 방법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 스퍼터 장비 역시 공정 가스에 따라 화학적 조성비 변화가 가능하고 CVD와 비교하여 공정이 간단하며 연속 공정이 쉽고 대면적 적용이 가능하다. 본 실험은 본사에서 R&D용으로 제작한 Daon-1000 S 장비를 사용하였으며 DaON-1000 S는 3개의 2" sputter gun이 장착 되어 있어 co-sputtering이 가능한 장비이다.

In continuous research of detecting highly toxic chemical warfare agents to ensure preparedness for the future battlefield, flexible and wearable sensor platforms with high sensitivity are still demanding. Herein we demonstrate a facile fabrication of polypyrrole-based chemiresistors on cellulose paper for the detection of nerve gas simulants. In order to optimize electrical properties of sensor platform, conducting polymer made of polypyrrole were first synthesized on flexible cellulose paper and interdigitated electrodes were formed thereon. Following confirmation of polypyrrole and/or oxime moiety through FT-IR analyses, electrical characteristics were measured in the various ratio of monomers between simple pyrrole and oxime-modified one. Typically for the optimized chemiresistor(2:8 molar ratio of simple pyrrole and oxime-modified one), eleven species of chemical warfare agents were examined and enhanced conductivity(10⁴~10⁵ order) was observed for three simulants(diethyl cyanophosphonate, diisopropyl fluorophosphonate and diethyl chlorophosphonate), which was mainly attributed to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, while no significant responses was recorded against sixteen common volatile organic chemicals.

In this study, the electrical contact resistance characteristics between graphene and metals, which is one of important factors for the performance of graphene-based devices, were compared. High-quality graphene was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and Al, Cu, Ni, and Ti as electrode materials were deposited on the graphene surface with equal thickness of 50 nm. The contact resistances of graphene transferred to SiO₂/Si substrates and metals were measured by the transfer length method (TLM), and the average contact resistances of Al, Cu, Ni, and Ti were found to be 345 Ω, 553 Ω, 110 Ω, and 174 Ω, respectively. It was found that Ni and Ti, which form chemical bonds with graphene, have relatively lower contact resistances compared to Al and Cu, which have physical adsorption properties. The results of this study on the electrical properties between graphene and metals are expected to contribute to the realization of high-performance graphene-based devices including electronics, optoelectronic devices, and sensors by forming low contact resistance with electrodes.

In order to fabricate magnetoresistive sensor, Fe-Ni and Co-Ni alleys were evaporated on the slide glass and the silicon wafers. Saturation magnetic induction($B_{s}$), coercive field strength($H_{c}$) and magnetoresistance were measured for fabricated samples. The evaporated Fe-Ni thin films show that the saturation magnetic induction was 0.65 T, and coercive field strength was 0.379 A/cm, and this value was changed to 0.370 A/cm(//), 0.390 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively after magnetic annealing. For the measurement of coercive field strength, magnetizing frequency of 1 kHz was used. For the fabricated sensor element, the change of magnetoresistance (${\Delta}R/R$) was excessively unstable due to oxidation in the process of fabrication. The evaporated Co-Ni alloy thin films show that saturation magnetic induction was 0.66 T, and coercive field strengthes were 5.895 A/cm(//), 5.898 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively, after magnetic annelaing. The change of magnetoresistance(${\Delta}R/R$) was $3.6{\sim}3.7%$ of which value was excessively stable to room temperature. Fe-Ni thin film could have many problems due to large affinity in the process of fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, but Co-Ni thin film could be a suitable material for fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, because of its small affinity and definite magnetoresistance effects.
