  • In this paper, the inorganic multi-layer encapsulation of thin film was newly adopted to protect the organic layer from moisture and oxygen. Using the electron beam, Sputter, inorganic multi-layer thin-film encapsulation was deposited onto the Ethylene Terephthalate(PET) and their interface properties between inorganic and organic layer were investigated. In this investigation, the SiON $SiO_2$ and parylene layer showed the most suitable properties. Under these conditions, the water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) for PET can be reduced from level of $0.57g/m^2/day$ (bare substrate) to $1^{\ast}10^{-5}g/m^2/day$ after application of a SiON and $SiO_2$ layer. These results indicate that the $PET/SiO_2/SiON/Parylene$ barrier coatings have high potential for flexible organic light-emitting diode(OLED) applications.

  • The barrier and optical properties of AlO$_{x}$ thin films on polycarbonate deposited by Reactive Ion Beam Sputtering (RIBS) were investigated at different oxygen partial pressure. We measured the deposition rate of AlO$_{x}$ thin films. As the oxygen partial pres-sure increased, the deposition rate increased then decreased. The changes of deposition rate are associated with the properties of deposited films. The properties of deposited AlO$_{x}$ thin films were studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scan-ning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Optimum deposition parameters were found for fabricat-ing aluminum oxide thin films with high optical transparency for visible light and low Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR). The optical transmittance of AlO$_{x}$ thin film deposited on polycarbonate (PC) showed the same value of bare PC.bare PC.

  • The stability enhancement of Znic oxide thin film transistor deposited by PLD-DBD has been reported here using the bias temperature stress test. Znic oxide (ZnO) thin films were deposited on $SiO_2$/Si (100) by pulsed laser deposition method with and without dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) method. The DBD is the efficient method to adopt the nitrogen ions into the thin films. The TFT characteristics of ZnO TFTs with and without Nirogen (N) doping show similar results with $I_{on/off}$ of $10^5{\sim}10^6$. However. the bias temperature stress (BTS) test of N-doped ZnO TFT with DBD shows higher stability than that of ZnO TFT.

  • Along the few nano sizing dimensions of integrated circuit (IC) devices, acceptable interlayer material for design is inevitable. The interlayer which include dielectric, interconnect, barrier etc. needs to achieve not only electrical properties, but also mechanical properties for endure post manufacture process and prolonging life time. For developing intermetallic dielectric (IMD) the mechanical issues with post manufacturing processes were need to be solved. For analyzing specific structural problem and material properties Raman spectroscopy was performed for various researches in Si semiconductor based materials. As improve of the laser and charge-coupled device (CCD) technology the total effectiveness and reliability was enhanced. For thin film as IMD developed material could be analyzed by Raman spectroscopy, and diverse researches of developing method to analyze thin layer were comprehended. Also In-situ analysis of Raman spectroscopy is introduced for material forming research.

  • It was carried out hot-firing test with a regenerative-cooled sub-scale combustor which was applied regenerative-cooling, film cooling and thermal barrier coating. Test results showed that cooling methods used in the combustor play an full role in the operation of the combustor under the design condition but it is occurred high frequency combustion instability due to unsteady flow of fuel by structural support ring inserted in fuel manifold. The flow pattern of fuel was improved by excluding the ring and it will be carried out additional hot-firing test to verify the combustion stability of modified combustor.

  • In dental roentgenograph it is of mutual benefit to the patient and the dentist to use the minimum amount of radiation capable of producing roentgenograms with maximum interprtive informations. Recent increases in the number of diagnostic x-ray examinations made in this country have caused attention to be paid to the quantity of radiation delivered to the population and operator. The purposes of this study was to assess the quality of dental x-ray units, the amount of films, the average processing procedures and the radiation protection methods in korea. The results were as following: 1. Most of radiation generating system were used in low voltage such as 60Kvp, 10㎃. 2. High sensitivity films such as 'D' group of Kodak or Rinn were mainly used and average 14.7 films used per weeks. 3. Some dentists practiced visual processing technic in simple dark room, and others used instant films. 4. 68.26% of patient held the film themselves, but 27.30% were assisted by dentists film holding. 5. In radiation protection method, 7.85% of dentists had protection equipments such as protective barrier, 2.73% wore protective apron, 27.9% made it a rules to avoid beam, and 7.51% used to maintain a distance from the radiation source.

  • In this work, nano ZnO was introduced into low density poly ethylene (LDPE) composites films with various contents (0, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0 and 5.0 wt%) by melt-extrusion. Their basic properties such as crystallinity, chemical bonds and surface morphology were examined by XRD, FTIR and SEM. XRD patterns and FTIR peaks intensity were increased in proportion to the ZnO contents. SEM images showed well dispersed nano ZnO in LDPE composite films. Antimicrobial functionality of LDPE-nano ZnO composite films was also studied and the presence of nano ZnO resulted in significant improvement of antimicrobial functionality compared to the pure LDPE film. To evaluate influence of nano ZnO on LDPE properties required as packaging material, thermal, mechanical, gas barrier and optical properties of LDPE-nano ZnO composite films were characterized with various analytical techniques including TGA, UTM, OTR, WVTR and UV-Vis spectroscopy. As a result, except optical and mechanical properties of LDPE, no significant effects were found in other properties. Opacity of pure LDPE was greatly increased with increasing concentration of nano ZnO and tensile strength was also improved at 0.5wt% ZnO content.

  • The electrical properties of porous $SiO_2/ITO$ nano thin film were studied by complex impedance and conductive mechanisms were analyzed. According to the results of complex impedance, the activation energy of $SiO_2/ITO$ and $Zn-SiO_2/ITO$ were 0.309 eV, 0.077 eV in below $450^{\circ}C$ and 0.147 eV in over $450^{\circ}C$, respectively. In case of $SiO_2/ ITO$, slightly direct tunneling occurred at room temperature. The contribution for conduction was very tiny because of high barrier of silica. However, the conductivity abruptly increased in over $300^{\circ}C$ by Thermally assisted tunneling. In case of $Zn-SiO_2/ITO$, high conductivity in 1.26 ${\Omega}^{ -1}{cdot}cm^{-1}$ at room temperature appeared by space charge conduction or Frenkel-poole emission that Zn ions play a role as localized electron states.

  • To prevent an interfacial reaction between the anode and the electrolyte layer during the conventional high-temperature co-firing process, an anode-supported type cell with a thin-film electrolyte was fabricated by low-temperature ceramic thick film coating process. Ni-GDC cermet composite was used as the anode material and YSZ was used as the electrolyte material. Open circuit voltage and maximum power density were found to strongly depend on the surface uniformity of the anode functional layer. By optimizing the microstructure of the anode functional layer, the open circuit voltage and maximum powder density of the cell increased to 1.11 V and $1.35W/cm^2$, respectively, at $750^{\circ}C$. When a GDC barrier layer was applied between the YSZ electrolyte and the LSCF cathode, the cell showed good stability, with almost no degradation up to 100 h. Anode-supported type SOFCs with high performance and good stability were fabricated using a coating process.
