Hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c-Si:H$) films have attracted much attention as materials of the bottom-cells in Si thin film tandem photovoltaics due to their low bandgap and excellent stability against light soaking. However, in PECVD, the source gas $SiH_4$ must be highly diluted by $H_2$, which eventually results in low deposition rate. Moreover, it is known that high-rate ${\mu}c-Si:H$ growth is usually accompanied by a large number of dangling-bond (DB) defects in the resulting films, which act as recombination centers for photoexcited carriers, leading to a deterioration in the device performance. During film deposition, Si nanoparticles generated in $SiH_4$ discharges can be incorporated into films, and such incorporation may have effects on film properties depending on the size, structure, and volume fraction of nanoparticles incorporated into films. Here we report experimental results on the effects of nonoparticles incorporation at the different substrate temperature studied using a multi-hollow discharge plasma CVD method in which such incorporation can be significantly suppressed in upstream region by setting the gas flow velocity high enough to drive nanoparticles toward the downstream region. All experiments were performed with the multi-hollow discharge plasma CVD reactor at RT, 100, and $250^{\circ}C$, respectively. The gas flow rate ratio of $SiH_4$ to $H_2$ was 0.997. The total gas pressure P was kept at 2 Torr. The discharge frequency and power were 60 MHz, 180 W, respectively. Crystallinity Xc of resulting films was evaluated using Raman spectra. The defect densities of the films were measured with electron spin resonance (ESR). The defect density of fims deposited in the downstream region (with nonoparticles) is higher defect density than that in the upstream region (without nanoparticles) at low substrate temperature of RT and $100^{\circ}C$. This result indicates that nanoparticle incorporation can change considerably their film properties depending on the substrate temperature.

플라즈마 CVD(PECVFD)장치로 금속유기물인 Diethylzinc와 $N_{2}O$를 합성하여 $300^{\circ}C$이하의 낮은 기판 온도에서 ZnO 박막을 증착하여, 증착변수가 박막의 증착속도 및 결정구조에 미치는 영향을 알아 보았다. 기판 온도 $150^{\circ}C$에서부터 이미 결정화된 ZnO 박막의 증착이 가능했으며, $200^{\circ}C$이상에서 X-ray rocking curve분석결과, 표준편차값($\delta$)이 6˚ 미만의 c축 배향성이 뛰어난 ZnO박막이 유리 기판위에 증착되었다. 기판온도오 인가된 rf전력에 의한 증착속도의 변화 양상은 매우 다양하였으며, 특히 결정화에 따른 증착속도 변화의 전이점이 관찰되었다. 200 W와 250W의 rf 전력에서 증착된 박막의 경우 활성화 에너지는 각각 3.1 KJ/mol과 1.9 KJ/mol이었다.

In this study, an empirical relationship between the energy band gap of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and synthesis parameters in a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) reactor using factorial design of experiment was established. A bimetallic (Fe-Ni) catalyst supported on $CaCO_3$ was synthesized via wet impregnation technique and used for MWCNT growth. The effects of synthesis parameters such as temperature, time, acetylene flow rate, and argon carrier gas flow rate on the MWCNTs energy gap, yield, and aspect ratio were investigated. The as-prepared supported bimetallic catalyst and the MWCNTs were characterized for their morphologies, microstructures, elemental composition, thermal profiles and surface areas by high-resolution scanning electron microscope, high resolution transmission electron microscope, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, thermal gravimetry analysis and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller. A regression model was developed to establish the relationship between band gap energy, MWCNTs yield and aspect ratio. The results revealed that the optimum conditions to obtain high yield and quality MWCNTs of 159.9% were: temperature ($700^{\circ}C$), time (55 min), argon flow rate ($230.37mL\;min^{-1}$) and acetylene flow rate ($150mL\;min^{-1}$) respectively. The developed regression models demonstrated that the estimated values for the three response variables; energy gap, yield and aspect ratio, were 0.246 eV, 557.64 and 0.82. The regression models showed that the energy band gap, yield, and aspect ratio of the MWCNTs were largely influenced by the synthesis parameters and can be controlled in a CVD reactor.

In this study, we investigated the effects of obesity index on the risk factors of chronic diseases in obese children. The subjects were male and female children aged 9 to 12. The average obesity index was 147.7$\pm$13.8% in boys and 147.6$\pm$16.5% in girls. The average percentages of body fat was significantly higher in boys(33.9$\pm$5.7%) than in girls(30.7$\pm$4.4%). It was found that 26% of subjects had abnormal serum GOT and GPT values. Percentages of subjects at risk of cardiovascular disease(CVD) based on corresponding criteria of TG, T chol, HDL chol, and LDL chol were 28.6%, 28.6%, 45.5% and 42.7%, respectively. The risk of CVD was increased with the degree of obesity, which was not significant. The AI(atherogenic index) was higher in boys(4.6$\pm$2.3) than in girls(3.6$\pm$1.2). The serum T chol and LDL chol levels of subjects whose mother are in thirties were significantly higher than those of subjects whose mother are in fourties. The T chol levels of subjects who had mother with job were significantly higher compaired to those of subjects who had housewife mother. The results indicated the urgent need of nu tritional management for the obese children to prevent further devel opment of childhood obesity and hyperlipidemia. Based upon this study, devising method and media for the mother nutritional education as well as for the children nutritional education is required for better growth and health promotion of primary school children.

Li(DPM)을 원료로 hot wall 수평 관형 반응기를 이용하여 질소-산소 및 아르곤-산소의 분위기에서 $Li_2O$ 고체박막을 LPMOCVD법으로 합성하였다. XRD와 ESCA 분석으로부터 질소-산소 분위기에서는 $Li_2CO_3$막이, 아르곤-산소의 분위기에서는 $Li_2O$막이 성장하였음을 알아냈다. 성막된 산화리튬과 리튬카보네이트는 기판의 실리콘 성분과 반응하여 실리케이트를 형성하였다. 마이크로 trench법과 Monte Carlo 시뮬레이션에 의해 기상반응 속도상수 및 표면반응 속도상수가 얻어졌으며 이를 이용한 성막속도 계산치와 실험치를 비교한 결과 실험조건범위 내에서 잘 일치하였다.

We investigated the growth of $(Al_xGa_{1-x})_2O_3$ thin films on c-plane sapphire substrates that were grown by mist chemical vapor deposition (mist CVD). The precursor solution was prepared by mixing and dissolving source materials such as gallium acetylacetonate and aluminum acetylacetonate in deionized water. The [Al]/[Ga] mixing ratio (MR) of the precursor solution was adjusted in the range of 0~4.0. The Al contents of $(Al_xGa_{1-x})_2O_3$ thin films were increased from 8 to 13% with the increase of the MR of Al. As a result, the optical bandgap of the grown thin films changed from 5.18 to 5.38 eV. Therefore, it was determined that the optical bandgap of grown $(Al_xGa_{1-x})_2O_3$ thin films could be effectively engineered by controlling Al content.

This study focuses on the analysis of the results of computational fluid dynamics simulations of mist-chemical vapor deposition for the growth of an epitaxial wafer in power semiconductor technology using artificial intelligence techniques. The conventional approach of predicting the uniformity of the deposited layer using computational fluid dynamics and design of experimental takes considerable time. To overcome this, artificial intelligence method, which is widely used for optimization, automation, and prediction in various fields, was utilized to analyze the computational fluid dynamics simulation results. The computational fluid dynamics simulation results were analyzed using a supervised deep neural network model for regression analysis. The predicted results were evaluated quantitatively using Euclidean distance calculations. And the Bayesian optimization was used to derive the optimal condition, which results obtained through deep neural network training showed a discrepancy of approximately 4% when compared to the results obtained through computational fluid dynamics analysis. resulted in an increase of 146.2% compared to the previous computational fluid dynamics simulation results. These results are expected to have practical applications in various fields.

Pentacene channel PTFT(organic thin film transistor)을 SiOC 절연박막 위에서 thermal evaporation 방법을 이용하여 성장시켰다. CVD 방법으로 증착시킨 SiOC 절연막은 조성비에 따라 특성이 달라지므로 절연막 위에서의 펜타센의 화학적 반응을 조사하기 위해서 inorganic-type인 $O_2/(BTMSM+O_2)=0.5$의 비율을 갖는 SiOC 박막을 사용하였다. 펜타센 분자의 말단에서 SiOC 표면에서 Diels-Alder 반응에 의한 이중결합이 깨어지면서 안정된 성장을 하지만 온도가 높아감에 따라 표면에서의 $SN_2(bimolecular nucleophilic substitution)$ 반응과 연쇄적인 화학반응에 의해 .펜타센의 성장을 방해하는 것으로 나타났다.

반도체 제조공정 중 플라즈마 반응기 내에서 입자오염을 유발하는 입자들의 거동과 성장을 모델식을 사용하여 이론적으로 고찰하였다. 플라즈마 반응기 내에서 입자 거동에 영향을 미치는 힘들로 유체 대류, 입자 확산 및 외부힘 (ion drag force, electrostatic force, 중력) 등을 고려하였다. 플라즈마 벌크 영역에서 전하를 가진 입자들간의 충돌에 의한 입자 성장을 고려하기 위해 모델식에 입자 전하 분포를 고려하였다. 대부분의 입자들은 ion drag force와 electrostatic force가 균형을 이루고 있는 두 sheath 경계 영역에 존재하였으며 두 sheath 영역과 벌크 플라즈마에서의 입자 농도는 0에 접근하였다. 시간이 지남에 따라 입자 충돌로 인한 입자들의 크기는 증가하였으며 입자가 성장함에 따라 입자 표면적의 증가와 더불어 입자가 가지는 평균 전하량도 증가하였다.
