본 연구는 기존의 Sputtering 방식에 Modulation 방식을 적용한 Modulated Sputtering System (MSS)에 관한 특성 관찰과 이를 이용한 박막 증착 및 분석에 관한 내용이다. MSS에 인가하는 전압은 pulse on 시간동안 타겟에 음의 전압이 인가되어 sputtering에 의한 박막이 증착되고, pulse off 시간동안에는 양의 전압을 인가하여 증착된 박막에 양이온을 입사시켜 에너지 전달에 의한 박막의 특성을 향상시키고 자한다. MSS에 인가되는 전압과 주파수, 그리고 펄스폭을 변화시키며 전압과 전류, 그리고 기판에 입사하는 이온에너지 특성을 관찰하였다. 또한 MSS를 이용하여 티타늄(Ti), 탄소(C), 알루미늄이 도핑된 산화아연(AZO) 박막을 증착하였다. 증착된 박막은 a-step, SEM, XRD, AFM, 4 point probe를 이용하여 박막의 두께, 결정성장면, 표면 거칠기, 비저항 등을 분석하였다. Ti 박막에서는 기판에 입사되는 양이온의 에너지가 증가함에 따라 결정 방위면이 (002)에서 (001)로 변화함을 확인하였고 탄소 박막과 AZO 박막의 경우에는 기판에 입사되는 양이온의 에너지 변화에 따라 박막의 전도도를 조절할 수 있음을 확인하였다.

Several liquid crystalline monomers were synthesized and characterized to utilize as new matrix materials of liquid crystal/polymer composite films for display application. Liquid crystalline compounds which have azo group as center link, cyano group at one of the terminal position in common and bromoalkyl(azo(n)), azidoalkyl(AZI(n)), aminoalkyl(ALC(n)) as the terminal group were synthesized and identified respectively by FT-lR, $^1H-NMR$ spectrometer and elemental analysis. All these compounds exhibited nematic liquid crystalline region in the certain temperature range as determined by DSC and polarized optical microscope. These liquid crystalline compounds also showed a typical even-odd effect in both $T_{KN}$ and $T_{NI}$ due to conformational change as the length of terminal alkyl chain, $-(CH_2)n-$. was varied.

RF 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 AZO(Al 2wt%, ZnO 98wt%)박막을 glass위에 증착한 후 증착 시간과 증착 압력에 따른 면저항, roughness 및 광투과도를 조사하였다. 본 연구에서 AZO박막의 면 저항은 4-point probe(Guardian, 402S)으로 측정하였으며 광투과도는 IR-VIS-UV spectrophotometer로 측정하였다. AZO 박막을 20분 증착하는 동안, 아르곤 flow양이 50, 100, 150sccm일 때 면저항은 $20\;{\Omega}/{\square}$이고, 200sccm일 때 $3744\;{\Omega}/{\square}$였다. AZO 박막의 두께를 일정하게 증착하는 동안, 아르곤 flow양이 50sccm일 때 면저항은 $49.6\;{\Omega}/{\square}$이고 100, 150, 200sccm일 때 $38{\Omega}/{\square}$였으며, 광투과도는 모두 80%이상을 보였다. Roughness는 각각 4.1nm, 7.6nm, 5.2nm, 16.9nm였다.

Al-doped ZnO (ZnO:Al) thin films were grown on corning 1737 glass substrates by dc magnetron sputtering. The structural, electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated as a function of various discharge power. The obtained films were polycrystalline with a hexagonal wurtzite structure and preferentially oriented in the (002) crystallographic direction. The lowest resistivity is $6.0{\times}10^{-4}$ Ocm with the carrier concentration of $2.694{\times}10^{20}$ $cm^{-3}$ and Hall mobility of $20.426cm^2/Vs$. The average transmittance in the visible range was above 90%.

We have prepared p-type ZnO:Al films in pure oxygen ambient on n-type Si (100) and homo buffer layers by RF magnetron sputtering system. Hall effect measurement shows that the film annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ possesses p-type conductivity and the film annealed $800^{\circ}C$ does not. PL spectra show different properties of p- and n-type ZnO film. The corresponding peaks of PL spectra of p- and n-type show at about same positions. The intensities of high photon energy of n-type film on buffer shows decreasing tendency.

AZO (ZnO:Al) were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering In $H_2/Ar(5%\;H_2)$ atmosphere, and structural, electrical and optical properties were investigated. The substrate temperatures were varied at RT, $100^{\circ}C,\;150^{\circ}C$ and$200^{\circ}C$. The resistivity of the films grown in $H_2/Ar(5%\;H_2)$ were reduced from $7.67{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}\;cm$ to $5.95{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}\;cm$ comparing that Ar (100%) and the transmittance of the ZnO:Al films in the visible range was 85%.

The electrostatic layer-by-layer technique provides a convenient way to control the construction of ultrathin films at nano-scale ranges and can be easily obtained. It can be also applicable to fiber substrate with dye compounds. We have fabricated multilayer dye films using diazonium resin and three couplers, which are prepared by self-assembly approach. This method is based on layer-by-layer deposition using electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions. Beside, the diazo coupling reaction proceeded to form azo dye layer on the PET fibers the same time. The corresponding results of the multilayer films have been discussed on the level of color strength (K/S).

Al, N-codoped ZnO(ZnO:N,Al) thin films were deposited on n-type Si(100) substrate at $450^{\circ}C$ with various conditions of ambient gas$(N_2:O_2)$ by DC magnetron sputtering method using ZnO:$Al_2O_3$(2wt%) as a target, and then were annealed at 500, 700, $800^{\circ}C$ in $N_2$ gas for one hour. XRD patterns showed that all of the ZnO:N,Al thin films annealed at $80^{\circ}C$ grew with two peaks, which means poor crystallinity of the thin films deposited. Hall effects in Van der Pauw configuration proved that after annealing the films deposited showed low resistivity and high carrier concentration. While the films annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ showed low resistivity of $\sim10^{-2}\Omega$ cm and high carrier concentration of $\sim10^{19}cm^{-3}$.

Ga/Al doped ZnO (GAZO) thin films were prepared on non-alkali glass substrate by co-sputtering system using two DC cathodes equipped with AZO ($Al_2O_3$:2.0 wt%) target and GZO ($Ga_2O_3$:6.65 wt%) target. This study examined the influence of Al/Ga concentration and substrate temperature on the electrical, structural and optical properties of GAZO films. The lowest resistivity $1.95{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ was obtained at room temperature. With increasing substrate temperature, resistivity of GAZO film decreased to a minimum value of $7.47{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ at below $300^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, when 0.05% $H_2$ gas was introduced, resistivity of GAZO film decreased to $6.69{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$. All the films had a preferred orientation along the (002) direction, indicating that the deposited films have hexagonal wurtzite structure formed by the textured growth along the c-axis. The average transmittance of the films was more than 85% in the visible light range.

Trivalent ions(Ga, Al, In) doped ZnO films were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering on non-alkali glass substrate at substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. We used the different three types of high density($95%{\sim}$) ceramic sintered disks(doped with $Ga_2O_3$; 6.65 wt%, $Al_2O_3$; 3.0 wt%, $In_2O_3$; 9.54 wt%). This study examined the effect of different dopants(Ga, Al, In) on the electrical, structural, and optical properties of the films. The lowest resistivity of $5.14{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ and the highest optical band gap of 3.74 eV were obtained by Ga doped ZnO(GZO) film. All the films had a preferred orientation along the(002) direction, indicating that the growth orientation has a c-axis perpendicular to the substrate surface. The average transmittance of the films was more than 85% in the visible range.
