Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic (LTCC) technology has been used in electronic device for various functions. LTCC technology is to fire dielectric ceramic and a conductive electrode such as Ag or Cu thick film below the temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ simultaneously. The glass-ceramic has been widely used for LTCC materials due to its low sintering temperature, high mechanical properties and low dielectric constants. To obtain the high strength, addition of filler, the microstructure should have various crystals and low pores in a composite. In this study, two glass frits were mixed with different alumina size(0.5, 2, 3.7um) and sintered at the range of $850{\sim}950^{\circ}C$. The microstructure, crystal phases, thermal and mechanical properties of the composites were investigated using FE-SEM, XRD, TG-DTA, Dilatomer. When the particle size of $Al_2O_3$ filler increased, the starting temperatures for the densification of the sintered bodies, onset point of crystallization, peak crystallization temperature in the glass-ceramic composites decreased gradually. After sintered at $900^{\circ}C$, the glass frits were crystallized as $CaAl_2Si_2O_8\;and\;CaMgSi_2O_6$. The purpose of our study is to understand the relationship between the $Al_2O_3$ particle size and thermal properties in composites.

In the present work, we studied effect of the deposition parameters on the structure and properties of ZnO films deposited by DC arc plasmatron. The varied parameters were gas flow rates, precursor composition, substrate temperature and post-deposition annealing temperature. Vapor of Zinc acetylacetone was used as source materials, oxygen was used as working gas and argon was used as the cathode protective gas and a transport gas for the vapor. The plasmatron power was varied in the range of 700-1,500 watts. Flow rate of the gases and substrate temperature rate were varied in the wide range to optimize the properties of the deposited coatings. After deposition films were annealed in the hydrogen atmosphere in the wide range of temperatures. Structure of coatings was investigated using XRD and SEM. Chemical composition was analyzed using x-ray photo-electron spectroscopy. Sheet conductivity was measured by 4-point probe method. Optical properties of the transparent ZnO-based coatings were studied by the spectroscopy. It was shown that deposition by a DC Arc plasmatron can be used for low-cost production of zinc oxide films with good optical and electrical properties. Sheet resistance of 4 Ohms cm was achieved after the deposition and 30 min annealing in the hydrogen at $350^{\circ}C$. Elevation of the substrate temperature during the deposition process up to $350^{\circ}C$ leads to decreasing of the film's resistance due to rearrangement of the crystalline structure.

The electrical and optical properties of amorphous In-Tin-Zinc-Oxide(ITZO) deposited at room temperature using rf-magnetron sputtering were investigated. The amorphous ITZO thin films were obtained at the composition of In:Sn:Zn = 6:2:2, 4:3:3, and 2:4:4, but the ITZO (8:1:1) showed a crystalline phase of bixbyite structure of In2O3. The resistivity of ITZO could be controlled by oxygen pressure in the sputtering ambient. The resistivity of post-annealed ITZO thin films exhibited the dependence on the amount of Indium. Optical energy band gap and transmittance increased as the amount of indium in ITZO increased. For the device application with ITZO, the bottom-gated thin-film transistor using ITZO as a active channel layer was fabricated. It showed a threshold voltage of 1.42V and an on/off ratio of $5.63{\times}10^7$ operated with saturation field-effect mobility of $14.2cm^2/V{\cdot}s$.

전도성고분자 polyaniline(PANI)의 구조 변화없이 전기전도도를 띠면서 가공성과 기계적 특성을 증가시키는 연구를 수행하였다. 기능성 산으로 도핑된 PANI-DBSA는 유화 중합하였고, dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid(DBSA)는 계면활성제와 도펀트 역할을 동시에 하도록 하였다. 이어서 PANI-DBSA를 high impact polystyrene(HIPS)와 용액 캐스팅하여 블렌드 필름을 제조하였다. UV-vis, FTIR/ATR 분광법으로 블렌드 구조와 전기적 특성을 확인하였다. PANI-DBSA/HIPS 블렌드에 관한 연구는 분산성과 모폴로지 변화에 따른 기계적인 특성과 전기적 특성 확인에 중점을 두고 진행하였다. 전기전도도는 PANI-DBSA 함량 증가에 따라 상승하였고, 9 wt% 정도로 낮은 함량에서도 $3.5{\times}10^{-4}$ S/cm로 급격하게 상승하였다. 전도성고분자 블렌드에서 연속적인 고분자 망상구조 형성이 percolation과 전기전도도에 밀접한 연관성이 있었다.

Proper seat design is critical to the safety, comfort, and ergonomics of automotive driver's seats. To ensure effective seat design, quantitative methods should be used to evaluate the characteristics of automotive seats. This paper presents a system that is capable of simultaneously monitoring body pressure distribution and surface deformation in a textile material. In this study, a textile-based capacitive sensor was used to detect the body pressure distribution in an automotive seat. In addition, a strain gauge sensor was used to detect the degree of curvature deformation due to high-pressure points. The textile-based capacitive sensor was fabricated from the conductive fabric and a polyurethane insulator with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The strain gauge sensor was attached on the guiding film to maximize the effect of its deformation due to bending. Ten pressure sensors were placed symmetrically in the hip area and six strain gauge sensors were distributed on both sides of the seat cushion. A readout circuit monitored the absolute and relative values from the sensors in realtime, and the results were displayed as a color map. Moreover, we verified the proposed system for quantifying the body pressure and fabric deformation by studying 18 participants who performed three predefined postures. The proposed system showed desirable results and is expected to improve seat safety and comfort when applied to the design of various seat types. Moreover, the proposed system will provide analytical criteria in the design and durability testing of automotive seats.

With the increasing concern of global warming caused by greenhouse gases owing to the recent industrial development, there is a growing need for advanced technology to control these emissions. Among the various greenhouse gases, nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) is a major contributor to global warming and is mainly released from sources, such as automobile exhaust and factories. Although semiconductor-type NO₂ gas sensors, such as SnO₂, have been extensively studied, they often require high operating temperatures and complicated manufacturing processes, while lacking selectivity, resulting in inaccurate measurements of NO₂ gas levels. To address these limitations, a novel sensor using PbS quantum dots (QDs) was developed, which operates at low temperatures and exhibits high selectivity toward NO₂ gas owing to its strong oxidation reaction. Furthermore, the use of P3HT conductive polymer improved the thin film quality, reactivity, and reaction rate of the sensor. The sensor demonstrated the ability to accurately measure NO₂ gas concentrations ranging from 500 to 100 ppm, with a 5.1 times higher sensitivity, 1.5 times higher response rate, and 1.15 times higher recovery rate compared with sensors without P3HT.

전자싸이크로트론공명(ECR: Electro Cyclotron Resonance)상온화학증착법에 의해 PET 폴리머기판위에 $SnO_x$ 박막을 제조하고, Sn의 전구체인 TMT(Tetra-methyl Tin)에 대한 산소와 수소의 몰 비 변화가 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다 비화학양론적인 결합에 의해 성장된 투명 주석 산화막은 주입되는 산소/TMT, 수소/TMT몰 비에 의하여 조성비가 결정되고, 결정된 조성비에 의해 전기적 성질이 결정되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 산소/TMT의 몰 비 변화에 대하여 PET(polyethylene terephthalate)에 증착된 $SnO_x$ 박막의 최적 조성비는 1:2.4이다. 조성비는 반응에 참가하는 산소의 양이 증가할수록 점차적으로 증가하고, 과량의 몰 비로 산소가 주입될 경우 박막내의 Sn과 결합하지 않고 잉여 산소전하밀도를 증가시켜 bulk한 박막을 형성해 전기 비저항을 증가시키는 주요 원인이 된다. 수소/TMT의 몰 비는 산소 몰 비와 같이 증착되는 $SnO_x$의 몰 비에 영향을 주어 조성비를 변화시킴으로서 전기비저항을 결정하는데 크게 기여한다. 반응기내에 공급되는 수소량이 적으면 TMT의 불완전한 분해를 초래하여 반응에 필요한 $Sn^+$ 이온농도가 낮아지게 되고,상대적으로 잉여 산소함량이 증가하면서 높은 저항을 나타낸다. 임계값 이상으로 많은 양의 수소를 공급하면 플라즈마 내에 존재하는 $O^-$ 이온을 환원시켜 주석 산화막의 형성에 필요한 $O^-$ 이온의 감소로 전기저항이 오히려 증가하게 된다. 따라서 박막의 Sn:O의 조성비는 주입되는 산소량이 증가할수록 더욱 큰 값을 갖게 되고, 주입되는 수소량이 증가할수록 작은 값을 갖게 된다. 본 연구범위에서 TMP에 대한 산소의 몰 비는 80배, 수소의 몰 비는 40배일 때 가장 투명도와 전기전도도를 지니는 박막 특성을 나타내었다.

Despite recent efforts for fabricating flexible transparent conducting films (TCFs) with low resistance and high transmittance, several obstacles to meet the requirement of flexible displays still remain. Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which have been traditionally used as the TCFs, have a serious obstacle in TCFs applications. SWNTs are the most appropriate materials for conductive films for displays due to their excellent high mechanical strength and electrical conductivity. Recently, it has been demonstrated that acid treatment is an efficient method for surfactant removal. However, the treatment has been reported to destroy most SWNT. In this work, the fabrication by the spraying process of transparent SWNT films and reduction of its sheet resistance by Au-ionic doping treatment on PET substrates is researched. Arc-discharge SWNTs were dispersed in deionized water by adding sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant and sonicated, followed by the centrifugation. The dispersed SWNT was spray-coated on PET substrate and dried on a hotplate. When the spray process was terminated, the TCF was immersed into deionized water to remove the surfactant and then it was dried on hotplate. The TCF film was then was doped with Au-ionic doping treatment, rinsed with deionized water and dried. The surface morphology of TCF was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The sheet resistance and optical transmission properties of the TCF were measured with a four-point probe method and a UV-visible spectrometry, respectively. This was confirmed and discussed on the XPS and UPS studies. We show that 87 ${\Omega}/{\Box}$ sheet resistances with 81% transmittance at the wavelength of 550 nm. The changes in electrical and optical conductivity of SWNT film before and after Au-ionic doping treatments were discussed. The effects of hole transport interface layer using Au-ionic doping SWNT on the performance of organic solar cells were investigated.

탄소나노튜브(CNT)를 이용하여 신율이 뛰어난 p-DCPD를 지로 사용하여 손상감지용 고분자 필름 센서를 연구하였다. CNT를 수지에 혼합시킬 경우 중합을 방해하여 1차 개환만 진행되었다. CNT 농도에 따른 정적접 촉각을 측정하여 계면의 젖음성을 측정하였다. 높은 신율을 가지는 p-DCPD에 CNT를 혼합시킴으로써 전도성을 확보하였고, CNT 농도에 따른 인장강도 및 전기저항 분산도 평가를 실시하였을 경우 0.5 wt% CNT/p-DCPD 조건이 최적의 조건임을 확인하였다. CNT/p-DCPD 센서의 내구성을 평가하기 위해 동적 피로 실험을 실시하여 인장응력에 따른 전기저항 변화를 평가하였다. 초기 3회 사이클 동안은 전기저항 변화도와 응력간의 결과가 유사한 경향을 나타내었다. CNT/p-DCPD 센서의 활용을 위해 에폭시 기지 표면에 센서를 붙이고 기지 재료의 파괴거동을 확인하였다. 기지 파괴가 발생되기 전에 CNT/p-DCPD 센서의 전기저항 점핑 신호를 관찰할 수 있었다. 이는 기지재료에 발생된 균열에 의해 CNT/p-DCPD 센서와 기지간의 접착 파괴로 발생된 신호이며, 이러한 신호를 이용하여 기지재료의 균열 및 파괴를 예측해 볼 수 있었다.
