It has been investigated for the film uniformity and deposition rate of a-C:H films on glass substrate and polymeric materials in the presence of the modulated crossed magnetic field. We used Plasma CVD, i.e, using a crossed electromagnetic field, for uniform depositing thin film. The optimum discharge condition has been discussed for the gas pressure, the magnetic flux density and the distance between substrate and electrodes, As a result, it is found that the optimum discharge conditions are $CH_4$ concentration $CH_4$=10 %, modulated magnetic flux density B=48 Gauss, pressure P=100 mTorr, discharge power supply voltage V=l kV under these experimental conditions. By using these experimental condition, it is possible to prepare the most uniform film extends over about 160 mm of the film width. In this study, we deposited a-C:H thin film on glass substrate, and have a plan that using this condition, study depositing a-C:H thin film on polymeric substrate in next studies.

An RF inductively coupled plasma (ICP) torch has been developed as a typical thermal plasma generator and reactor. It has been applied to various materials processings such as plasma flash evaporation, thermal plasma CVD, plasma spraying, and plasma waste disposal. The RF ICP reactor has been generally operated under one atmospheric pressure. Lately the characteristics of low pressure RF ICP is attracting a great deal of attention in the field of plasma application. In our researches of RF plasma applications, low pressure RF ICP is mainly used. In many cases, the plasma generated by the ICP torch under low pressure seems to be rather capacitive, but high density ICP can be easily generated by our RF plasma torch with 3 turns coil and a suitable maching circuiit, using 13.56 MHz RF generator. Plasma surface modification (surface hardening by plasma nitriding and plasma carbo-nitriding), plasma synthesis of AIN, and plasma CVD of BN, B-C-N compound and diamond were practiced by using low pressure RF plasma, and the effects of negative and positive bias voltage impression to the substrate on surface modification and CVD were investigated in details. Only a part of the interesting results obtained is reported in this paper.

이 논문은 라이트박스의 주력 상품인 세 가지 색의 합성 다이아몬드의 분광학적 특성에 대해 분석한 결과이다. 드비어스의 브랜드인 라이트박스 주얼리는 2018년 9월부터 CVD 합성 다이아몬드를 판매하기 시작했다. 본 연구에서 검사된 샘플은 0.25 ct, 0.25 ct, 0.26 ct의 무색(H grade), 핑크, 청색의 합성 다이아몬드이며, 각 샘플의 테이블 중앙에는 라이트박스 로고가 레이저 각인되어 있었다. 분광학적 기법에 기초한 분석 결과, 무색 샘플은 결정성장 후 색 향상을 위한 고온고압 처리과정을 거치지 않았다. 핑크 샘플은 H3, 3H, 594 nm, NV, GR1의 광학 결함이 발견되었고, 이로 인해 결정성장 후 색 향상을 위해 조사와 열처리 과정을 거친 것으로 판단했다. 또한 블루 샘플은 열처리 과정 없이 조사만 되었음을 알 수 있었다.

Low-hydrogenated DLC films were coated on the Mo-tip FEAs by 'layer-by-layer' process based on the plasma-enhanced CVD method. The hydrogen content in the DLC film deposited by the 'layer-by-layer' process was appeared to be remarkably lowered through SIMS analysis. Also, the low-hydrogenated DLC-coated Mo-tip FEA showed good potentiality for FED applications in terms of turn-on voltage, emission current, emission stability and light emitting uniformity.

RF HPCVD(Helicon Plasma Chemical Vapor Deposition) has been successfully constructed for diamond thin films. The system consists of plasma generation tube, deposition chamber, pumping lines for gas system. A mixture of $CH_4 and H_2$is used for reaction. Two thermocouples, a quartz tube surrounded by a RF antenna and a magnet, and a high temperature heater were set up in the deposition chamber. The process for the thin film diamond deposition has been carried put in a high vacuum system at a substrate temperature of $800^{\circ}C$, and pressure of 5 mtorr. It is also demonstrated. that the RF HPCVD system has advantages for controlling deposition parameters easily.

DLC(Diamond-Like Carbon) films were prepared by Inductively Coupled Plasma(ICP) CVD system. It was confirmed that the field emission characteristics are closely related to the richness of C-H bonding incorporated in the DLC. According to Fowler-Nordheim equation, it is thought that the ability of DLC to emit electron at relatively low voltage is due to the field enhancement caused by the nodules of ${\sim}100nm$ size on the surface of DLC. The electric field to start field emission was about $1.4{\times}10^9V/m$ in case of DLC film deposited at input power of 400W and substrate bias of -100V.

A new paradigm of crystal growth was suggested in a charged cluster model, where charged clusters of nanometer size are suspended in the gas phase in most thin film processes and are a major flux for thin film growth. The existence of these hypothetical clusters was experimentally confirmed in the diamond and silicon CVD processes as well as in gold and tungsten evaporation. These results imply new insights as to the low pressure diamond synthesis without hydrogen, epitaxial growth, selective deposition and fabrication of quantum dots, nanometer-sized powders and nanowires or nanotubes. Based on this concept, we produced such quantum dot structures of carbon, silicon, gold and tungsten. Charged clusters land preferably on conducting substrates over on insulating substrates, resulting in selective deposition. if the behavior of selective deposition is properly controlled, charged clusters can make highly anisotropic growth, leading to nanowires or nanotubes.

다음극 DC PACVD법에서 합성된 직경 80 mm, 두께 900 $\mu\textrm{m}$ ~ 950 $\mu\textrm{m}$의 자유막 다이아몬드웨이퍼의 특성을 분석하였다. 광투과현미경으로 결함의 분포를 관찰하고, Raman 및 IR 장치로 결정성을 분석하였다. 결함은 결정입계 부위에서 많이 관찰되었다. 또한 하나의 결정립에서 (111)면이 (100)면에 비해 상대적으로 많은 결함을 함유하였다. Raman 다이아몬드 peak의 FWHM 및 10.6 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 파장에서의 IR 투과도는 각각 4.6 $\textrm{cm}^{-1}$ /~5.3 $\textrm{cm}^{-1}$및 51.7% ~ 61.9%로, 두 값의 웨이퍼 내에서 균일성은 $\pm$7% 및 $\pm$9%이었다. 다이아몬드 웨이퍼의 결정성은 가운데에서 가장자리로 갈수록 저하되었다.

Invisible charged clusters are suggested to form in the gas phase and to become the growth unit in the thin film process. Similar suggestion had been made by Glasner el al. in the crystal growth of KBr and KCL in the solution where the lead ions were added. The charged cluster model, which was suggested in the diamond CVD process by our group, will be extended to the other thin film processes. It will be shown based on both the theoretical analysis and the experimental evidences that the charged clusters are formed in the gas phase and become the growth unit of the crystal in the thin film process.
