The diamond thin films was deposited on Si(100) substrate by Hot Filament Chemical Vapor Deposition (HFCVD) method using supplied the $CH_{3}OH/H_{2}O$ mixtured gas with excess H_{2} gas. The role of hydrogen ion as the growth mechanism of the diamond deposit was examined and compared the $CH_{3}OH/H_{2}O$ with the $CH_4/H_2$. Pressures in the range of $1.1\sim290{\times}10^2$ Pa were applied and using $3.4\sim4.4$ kw power. It was investigated by Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM) and Raman spectroscopy The H ion was etching the graphite and restrained from $sp^3\;to\;sp^2$. But excess $H_2$ gas was not helped diamond deposit using $CH_{3}OH/H_{2}O$ mixtured gas. It was shown that the role of hydrogen ion of deposited diamond films using $CH_{3}OH/H_{2}O$ was different from $CH_4/H_2$.

We have deposited hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (DLC) films by pulsed laser deposition of graphite. Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) can be utilized to generate films with desired properties quite different from those of the starting material. Since DLC films grown by PLD using turbo pump are perpared without hydrogen, they have a higher density and a higher index of refraction than the hydrogenated DLC films. In this study, effects of the substrate temperature and laser energy density on the properties of DLC films were systematically investigated. The structure and properties of the films have been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Raman spectroscopy.

본 연구에서는 산화갈륨의 방열 특성 향상을 위해 산화갈륨/다이아몬드 이종 박막 성장을 진행하였다. 먼저, 핫필라멘트 화학기상증착법을 이용하여 다결정 다이아몬드를 증착시킨 후, 미스트 화학기상증착법을 통해 450~600℃ 사이의 온도구간에서 산화갈륨 박막을 성장시켰다. 열처리 전후 비교를 통해 500℃에서 산화갈륨/다이아몬드 계면 분리 현상이 발생함을 확인하였다. 이는 비정질과 결정질이 혼재된 산화갈륨 박막이 성장된 후, 냉각 과정에서 열팽창계수의 차이로 인해 계면이 분리된 것으로 판단하였다. 따라서, 본 연구를 통한 산화갈륨/다이아몬드 계면의 물리적 안정성을 통해 산화갈륨의 열물성 보완및 고전력 반도체로의 활용이 기대된다.

In this paper, we investigate fringe-field switching (FFS) mode cell by the ion beam (IB) alignment method on the a-C:H thin film, to analyze electro-optical characteristics in this cell. We studied on the suitable inorganic thin film for fringe-field switching (FFS) cell and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time curve of the IB-aligned FFS-LCD was observed with oblique IB exposure on the DLC thin films. Also, AC V-T hysteresis characteristics of the IB-aligned FFS-LCD with IB exposure on the DLC thin films is almost the same as that of the rubbing-aligned FFS cell on a polyimide (PI) surface.

Generally, diamond-like carbon films (a-C:H, DLC) have been shown to have a low coefficient of friction, a high hardness and a low wear rate. Pd-doped C thin film was fabricated using a dual magnetron sputtering with two targets of graphite and palladium. Graphite target RF power was fixed and palladium target RF power was varied. The structural, physical, and surface properties of the deposited thin film were investigated, and the correlation among these properties was examined. The doping ratio of Pd increased as the RF power increased, and the surface roughness of the thin film decreased somewhat as the RF power increased. In addition, the hardness value of the thin film increased, and the adhesive strength was improved. It was confirmed that the value of the contact angle indicating the surface energy increases as the RF power increases. It was concluded that the increase in RF power contributed to the improvement of the physical properties of Pd-doped C thin film.

An experimental study of hot filament chemical vapor deposition(HFCVD) has been carried out for the fabrication of diamond thin film. Of particular interest is the measurement of deposition uniformity on large substrates. Experimental apparatus including a vacuum chamber, heating elements, etc. has been designed and manufactured. Deposition profiles for different pretreatment powders and different flow rates have been measured in conjunction with the measurement of substrate temperature distribution on a large substrate surface. As the flow rate increases, deposition rate increases, however, the crystallinity becomes worse. Higher growth rate has been found on the region closer to the center location where substrate temperature is higher. The crystallinity has been improved as gas flow rate decreases. The growth rate and morphology of deposition were identified by SEM and the existence of diamond phase was proved by Raman spectroscopy.

Hydrogenated Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were Prepared by the radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF PECVD) method on silicon substrates using methane $(CH_4)$ and hydrogen $(H_2)$ gas for the application to solid lubricant of MEMS devices. We have checked the influence of varying RF power on tribological properties of DLC film. We have checked their performance as two kinds of method such as FFM (Friction Force Microscope) and BOD (Ball-on Disk) measurement. The friction coefficients and the contact number of cycles to steady state decreased as the increase of RF power with FFM and BOD measurement, respectively.

The methastable state diamond films have been deposited on Si substrates using MWPCVD. Effects of each experimental parameters of MWPCVD including CH$_4$ concentrations, Oxygen additions, Operating pressure, deposition time, etc. on the growth rate and crystallinity were investigated. The best crystallinity of the finn at 3% methane concentration addition of oxygen to the CH$_4$-$H_2O$ mixture gave an improved film crystallinity at 50% oxygen concentration. Upon increasing the operating pressure and time, the growth rate and crystallinity were increased simultaneously.

The fabrication process of thin boron-doped nanocrystalline diamond (B-NCD) microelectrodes on fused silica single mode optical fiber cladding has been investigated. The B-NCD films were deposited on the fibers using Microwave Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition (MW PA CVD) at glass substrate temperature of 475 ℃. We have obtained homogenous, continuous and polycrystalline surface morphology with high sp³ content in B-NCD films and mean grain size in the range of 100-250 nm. The films deposited on the glass reference samples exhibit high refractive index (n=2.05 at λ=550 nm) and low extinction coefficient. Furthermore, cyclic voltammograms (CV) were recorded to determine the electrochemical window and reaction reversibility at the B-NCD fiber-based electrode. CV measurements in aqueous media consisting of 5 mM K₃[Fe(CN)₆] in 0.5 M Na₂SO₄ demonstrated a width of the electrochemical window up to 1.03 V and relatively fast kinetics expressed by a redox peak splitting below 500 mV. Moreover, thanks to high-n B-NCD overlay, the coated fibers can be also used for enhancing the sensitivity of long-period gratings (LPGs) induced in the fiber. The LPG is capable of measuring variations in refractive index of the surrounding liquid by tracing the shift in resonance appearing in the transmitted spectrum. Possible combined CV and LPG-based measurements are discussed in this work.
