본 연구를 통하여 저온 반도체 공정용 정전퍽(ESC)을 테이프캐스팅 공정에 의하여 스테인레스스틸에 소다붕규산염유리가 도포된 형태로 제작할 수 있음을 입증하였다. 스테인레스스틸 기판위의 유리 도포층은 125 $\mu\textrm{m}$의 두께로 제작되었다. 유리 도포층의 접합력은 매우 우수하여 $300^{\circ}C$이상의 온도변화에서도 균열이나 층간갈라짐 현상이 발생하지 않았다. 정전 고착압력은 전반적으로 이론적 관계인 전압의 제곱에 비례하는 경향을 보였으나, 고온과 고인가전압에서는 이 관계에서 벗어나는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 이탈현상은 고온과 고인가전압에서 전기비저항의 감소에 따른 누설전류의 증가에 기인한다.

고온용 정전기척(high-temperature electrostatic chuck, HTESC)에 적합한 특성의 유전재료를 개발하였다. 유전층의 전기비저항과 유전상수 값은 HTESC가 적합하게 작동하기에 필요한 요구조건을 만족하였으며, 하부절연층재료와 열팽창계수가 유사하여 구조적인 안정성이 확보되었다. 유전층과 절연 층간의 접합층 재료로는 입자오염 문제의 최소화를 위해 붕규산염 유리재료를 선택하였고, 전극재료로는 은을 사용하였다. 상부유전 층과 하부절연층 사이에서 붕규산염 유리는 안정되게 접합되었으며, 우려 되었던 은전극의 유전층이나 유리층과의 확산 및 반응이 관찰되지 않았다. 제조된 HTESC의 척킹(chucking)특성은 상용 HTESC에 비하여 우수하게 나타났다.

The electrostatic chuck is a technology that uses electroadhesion to attach objects and is widely used in semiconductor and display processes. This research conducted Maxwell by varying parameters to examine the distribution and variations of chucking force in a bipolar-type ESC. The parameters that were changed include the material properties of the dielectric layer and attachment substrate, applied voltage to the electrode, and the gap and width between the electrodes. The analysis results showed that as the relative permittivity of the dielectric layer and substrate increased, the chucking force also increased, with the relative permittivity of the substrate having a greater impact on the chucking force. And increasing the applied voltage led to an increase in both the chucking force and its rate of change. Lastly, as the gap between the electrodes increased, the chucking force rapidly decreased until a certain distance, after which the decrease became less significant. On the contrary, increasing the electrode width resulted in a rapid increase in the chucking force until a certain width, beyond which the increase became less pronounced, eventually converging to a chucking force of 1700 Pa. This paper is expected to have high potential for the development and research of ESC for OLED deposition.

The importance of processes in cryogenic environments is increasing in a way to address problems such as critical dimension (CD) narrow and bottlenecks in micro-processing. Accordingly, in this paper, we proceed with the design and analysis of Electrostatic Chuck(ESC) and Coolant in cryogenic environments, and present optimal model conditions to provide the temperature distribution analysis of ESC in these environments and the appropriate optimal design. The wafer temperature uniformity was selected as the reference model that the operating conditions of the refrigerant of the liquid nitrogen in the doubled aluminum path were excellent. Design of simulation (DOS) was carried out based on the wheel settings within the selected reference model and the classification of three mass flow and diameter case, respectively. The comparison between factors with p-value less than 0.05 indicates that the optimal design point is when five turns of coolant have a flow rate of 0.3 kg/s and a diameter of 12 mm. ANOVA determines the interactions between the above factor, indicating that mass flow is the most significant among the parameters of interests. In variable selection procedure, Case 2 was also determined to be superior through the two-Sample T-Test of the mean and variance values by dividing five coolant wheels into two (Case 1 : 2+3, Case 2: 3+2). Finally, heat transfer analysis processes such as final difference method (FDM) and heat transfer were also performed to demonstrate the feasibility and adequacy of the analysis process.

Electrical properties of AlN ceramics sintered with 1 wt% $Y_2O_3$ have been investigated. From the impedance spectroscopy, electrical conductivity of grain boundary was found to be much lower than that of grain. DC conductivity measurement showed the electrode polarization effects caused by blocking electrode. The heat-treatment at $1700^{\circ}C$ of the specimen sintered at $1850^{\circ}C$ transformed continuous pain boundary phases along triple boundary junctions into isolated particles in grain comers. The heat-treatment induced decreases both in grain and grain boundary conductivity, and in DC electrical conductivities. From the analysis on the transference number, ionic conductivity was shown to be more dominant than electron conductivity, which was due to ion compensation mechanism during oxygen incorporation into grain.

We report on plasma damage free chemical vapor deposition technique for the thin film passivation of organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), organic thin film transistor (OTFT) and flexible displays using catalyzer enhanced chemical vapor deposition (CECVD). Specially designed CECVD system has a ladder-shaped tungsten catalyzer and movable electrostatic chuck for low temperature deposition process. The top emitting OLED with thin film $SiN_x$ passivation layer shows electrical and optical characteristics comparable to those of the OLED with glass encapsulation. This indicates that the CECVD technique is a promising candidate to grow high-quality thin film passivation layer on OLED, OTFT, and flexible displays.

The edge ring placed on the outside of the electrostatic chuck (ESC) is a key component for protecting the ESC and controlling the etching uniformity of the edge of the wafer. Therefore, it is very important to understand the etching phenomenon of edge rings for edge ring management and equipment homeostasis. In this study, a specimen with SiO₂ hard mask and underlying Si mold was installed on the edge ring surface and the etching results were measured by varying the edge ring 2MHz RF power. By developing PI-VM model with high prediction accuracy and analyzing the roles of key parameters in the model, we were able to evaluate the effect of plasma and sheath characteristics around the edge ring on edge ring erosion. This analysis method provided information necessary for edge ring maintenance and operation.

반도체 드라이 에처 시스템의 웨이퍼 정전기 척에 적용하기 위해 플라즈마 스프레이 방법으로 Al-60 계열 기판에 코팅한 $Al_2O_3$ 코팅 막의 특성을 조사하였다. 시편 뒷면에 냉각봉이 장착되었을 때와 없을 때, 용사거리와 분말공급량을 변형하면서 $Al_2O_3$ 막 코팅을 하여 시편을 제작 하였다. 시편 뒷면에 냉각봉이 없을 때는 크랙과 기공이 많이 발생하였다. 시편 뒷면에 냉각봉을 장착하고 분말공급량을 15g/min로 한 경우에 용사거리 60, 70, 80mm에 따른 $Al_2O_3$ 코팅에서는 크랙과 기공은 거의 찾아볼 수 없었다. 용사거리 변화에 따른 $Al_2O_3$ 막 코팅의 표면형태 변화는 없었다. 같은 공정조건에서 분말 공급량을 20g/min로 한 경우에도 크랙은 볼 수 없었으나 약간의 기공이 생겼고, 분말공급량을15g/min로 하였을 때 보다 작은 입자들이 많이 증착되었다. 시편 뒷면에 냉각봉이 없을 때가 시편 뒷면에 냉각봉이 장착된 경우에 비하여 증착 속도가 빨랐다.

The number of processes in the manufacture of semiconductors, displays and solar cells is increasing. And as the processes is performed, multiple layers of films and various patterns are formed on the wafer. At this time, substrate warpage occurs due to the difference in stress between each film and pattern formed on the wafer. the substrate warping phenomenon occurs due to the difference in stress between each film and pattern formed on the wafer. We developed a new warpage measurement method to measure wafer warpage during real-time processing. We performed an experiment to measure the presence and degree of warpage of the substrate in real time during the process by adding only measurement equipment for applying additional electrical signals to the existing ESC and detecting the change of the additional electric signal. The additional electrical measurement signal applied at this time is very small compared to the direct current (DC) power applied to the electrostatic chuck whit a frequency that is not generally used in the process can be selectively used. It was confirmed that the measurement of substrate warpage can be easily separated from other power sources without affecting.

$Y_2O_3$를 소결조제로 사용한 질화알루미나(AlN)에 다양한 소결조건과 MgO의 도핑이 고온전기전도도의 특성에 대해 미치는 영향에 대해 연구하였다. MgO를 도핑 하였을 때, 2차상으로 스피넬과 페로브스카이트 상이 생성되었고, 이는 전기적 특성에 영향을 끼쳤다. 고온 임피던스를 분석한 결과 MgO의 도핑은 AlN 입내의 활성화 에너지와 전기전도도의 감소를 보이는 반면에, 입계의 경우에는 활성화 에너지와 전기전도도의 증가를 보였다. 이는 저항이 높은 비정질의 액상이 입계에 형성되거나, Mg의 석출에 의하여 쇼트키 장벽이 높아졌기 때문으로 예상된다. MgO가 도핑된 AlN을 어닐링 한 경우에는 어닐링 하지 않은 경우에 비하여, 활성화 에너지와 전기전도도가 더욱 증가하는 것을 볼 수 있었다. 이러한 결과는 $1500^{\circ}C$에서 어닐링을 통하여 미세구조분석에서 보이는 바와 같이 Mg 이온이 입계에서 입내로 확산된 때문으로 예상된다.
