Polycrystalline $Cd_{1-x}Zn_{x}S$ thin film were grown on slide glass(corning-2948) substrate using a chemical bath deposition (C.B.D) method. They were annealed at various temperature and X -ray diffraction patterns were measured by X-ray diffractometor in order to study $Cd_{1-x}Zn_{x}S$ polycrystal structure using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the CdS, ZnS sample annealed in $N_{2}$ gas at $550^{\circ}C$. It was found hexagonal structure which had the lattice constant $a_{0}\;=\;4.1364{\AA}$, $c_{0}\;=\;6.7129{\AA}$ in CdS and $a_{0}\;=\;3.8062{\AA}$, $c_{0}\;=\;6.2681{\AA}$ in ZnS, respectively. Hall effect on these sample was measured by Van der Pauw method and then studied on carrier density and mobility depending on temperature. We measured also spectral response, sensitivity maximum allowable power dissipation and response time on these sample.

In this study, we presented rapid and simple fabrication method of functionalized surface on various substrates as a universal platform for the selective immobilization of cells. The functionalized surface was achieved by using deposition of polyelectrolyte such as poly(allyamine hydrochloride) (PAH), poly(diallyldimethyl ammonium chloride) (PDAC), poly(4-ammonium styrene sulfonic acid) (PSS), poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) and fabrication of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) microstructure through micro-molding in capillaries (MIMIC) technique on each glass, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polystyrene (PS) and poly(dimethyl siloxane) (PDMS) substrate. The polyelectrolyte multilayer provides adhesion force via strong electrostatic attraction between cell and surface. On the other hand, PEG microstructures also lead to prevent non-specific binding of cells because of physical and biological barrier. The characteristic of each modified surface was examined by using static contact angle measurement. The modified surface onto several substrates provides appropriate environment for cellular adhesion, which is essential technology for cell patterning with high yield and viability in the micropatterning technology. The proposed method is reproducible, convenient and rapid. In addition, the fabrication process is environmentally friendly process due to the no use of harsh solvent. It can be applied to the fabrication of biological sensor, biomolecules patterning, microelectronics devices, screening system, and study of cell-surface interaction.

NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$) trilayers were formed on the $4^{\circ}$ tilt-cut Si(111) substrate by rf magnetron sputtering method. With a Cu($50\;{\AA}$) underlayer, NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$) trilayers developed in-plane magnebc anisotropy and in-plane perpendicular alignment of easy axes in two magnetic components of NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$) trilayers has been found. The easy axis of Co layer consisbng of NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$) trilayers turned out to be along $4^{\circ}$ tilt Si <112> direcbon and that of NiFe layer along Si <110> direction. [NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$)]/Cu($50\;{\AA}$)/Si(111, $4^{\circ}$ tiIt-cut) trilayers showed about 2.2 % MR ratio at room temperature and large plateau in MR curves, which are more improved MR characteristics than those in [NiFe($60\;{\AA}$)/Cu($60\;{\AA}$)/Co($30\;{\AA}$)]/Cu($50\;{\AA}$)/glass trilayers with no appreciable magnetic anisotropy.

ZnO thin films co-doped with Mg and Ga (MxGyZzO, x + y + z = 1, x = 0.05, y = 0.02 and z = 0.93) were prepared on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering with different sputtering powers ranging from 100W to 200W at a substrate temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. The effects of the sputtering power on the structural, morphological, electrical, and optical properties of MGZO thin films were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that all the MGZO thin films were grown as a hexagonal wurtzite phase with the preferred orientation on the c-axis without secondary phases such as MgO, $Ga_2O_3$, or $ZnGa_2O_4$. The intensity of the diffraction peak from the (0002) plane of the MGZO thin films was enhanced as the sputtering power increased. The (0002) peak positions of the MGZO thin films was shifted toward, a high diffraction angle as the sputtering power increased. Cross-sectional field emission scanning electron microscopy images of the MGZO thin films showed that all of these films had a columnar structure and their thickness increased with an increase in the sputtering power. MGZO thin film deposited at the sputtering power of 200W showed the best electrical characteristics in terms of the carrier concentration ($4.71{\times}10^{20}cm^{-3}$), charge carrier mobility ($10.2cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$) and a minimum resistivity ($1.3{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$). A UV-visible spectroscopy assessment showed that the MGZO thin films had high transmittance of more than 80 % in the visible region and that the absorption edges of MGZO thin films were very sharp and shifted toward the higher wavelength side, from 270 nm to 340 nm, with an increase in the sputtering power. The band-gap energy of MGZO thin films was widened from 3.74 eV to 3.92 eV with the change in the sputtering power.

초고속 증착은 짧은 시간에 박막 형성을 가능하게 하므로 window glass 코팅등의 대면적 코팅에 있어서 비용을 절감 시키고, 대량생산을 가능하게 만들기 때문에 관심이 집중되고 있다. 고속증착 공정으로는 high current arc, laser arc, hollow cathode discharge ion plating 그리고 마그네트론 스퍼터링법 등이 있다. 특별히 마그네트론 스퍼터링법은 3m이상의 넓이에 코팅을 할때 두께가 매우 균일하며, 증착율은 evaporation 공정에 비해 경제적, 기능적인 면에서 효율적이다. 그리고 증착된 박막은 매우 조밀하고 좋은 밀착력을 갖고 있으며, 고융점 금속을 포함하여 금속 합금 및 혼합물의 비율을 조정 및 금속 산화물, 질화물, 탄화물 등과 같은 금속의 증착도 stoichiometry를 조정하여 박막을 합성 시키는데 있어서 효과적이다. 이러한 초고속 증착을 만들기 위한 마그네트론 스퍼터링법의 요건은 마그네트론 원이 높은 타켓 power density를 가져야 하며, 타켓에서 효율적으로 플라즈마를 구속하여 스퍼터 되는 이온의 양을 최대화 시킬 수 있어 한다. 따라서 본 실험에서는 초고속 증착을 위해서 직경 50mm 타켓의 UBM magnetron원을 설계 제작하였다. 고밀도의 플라즈마를 형성시키기 위해서, Poisson simulation c code를 이용하여 자기장의 방향, 세기 및 밀도를 측정 하였고, 자기장 측정기(Gauss meter)를 이용하여 실제 자장을 측정 비교 분석하였다. 상기의 data를 바탕으로 여러 형상의 마그네트론원을 설계, 제작하였고. 마그네트론 원의 특성 분석을 위해 I-V 방전 특성을 평가하였고 substrate ion current density와 박막의 증착율을 측정하였다.duty-on 시간의 증가에 따라 $Cr_2N$ 상의 형성이 점점 많아져 80% duty-on 시간 경우에는 거의 CrN과 $Cr_2N$ 상이 공존하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 duty-on 시간이 증가할수록 회절피크의 세기가 증가하여 결정화가 더 많이 진행되어짐을 알 수 있었다. 마찬가지로 바이어스 펄스이 주파수에 다른 결정성의 변화도 펄스의 주파수가 증가할수록 박막이 결정성이 좋아지고 $Cr_2N$ 상이 쉽게 형성되었다. 증착 진공도에 따른 결정성은 상대적으로 질소의 농도가 높은 낮은 진공도에서는 CrN 상이 주로 형성되었으며, 반대로 높은 진공도에서는 $Cr_2N$ 상이 많이 만들어졌다. 즉 $1.3{\times}10^{-2}Torr$의 증착 진공도에서는 CrN 상만이 보이는 반면 $9.0{\tiems}1-^{-2}Torr$ 진공도에서부터 $Cr_2N$ 상이 형성되기 시작하여 $5.0{\tiems}10^{-2}Torr$ 진공도에서는 두개의 상이 혼재되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 박막의 내마모성을 조사한 결과 CrN 박막의 마찰 계수는 초기에 급격하게 증가한 후 0.5에서 0.6 사이의 값으로 큰 변화를 보이지 않았으며, $Cr_2N$ 박막도 비슷한 거동을 보였다.차 이, 목적의 차이, 그리고 환경의 의미의 차이에 따라 경관의 미학적 평가가 달라진 것으로 나타났다.corner$적 의도에 의한 경관구성의 일면을 확인할수 있지만 엄밀히 생각하여 보면 이러한 예의 경우도 최락의 총체적인 외형은 마찬가지로 $\ulcorner$순응$\lrcorner$

This paper presents deposition and characterization of hydrogenated microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c$ -Si:H) films on low cost glass substrate by Hot Wire CVD(HWCVD). The HWCVD ${\mu}c$ -Si:H films had deposition rates ranging from 2${\AA}$/sec to 35${\AA}$/sec with the variations of preparation conditions, which was 10 times higher than that of the films obtained from the conventional PECVD method. From the Raman spectroscopy, the prepared silicon films were found to be composed of the mixture of crystalline and amorphous phases. The crystalline volume fraction and average crystallite size, obtained from the Raman To mode peak near 520cm$^{-1}$, were 37-63% and 6-10 nm, respectively. The conductivity activation energy($E_a$) of the ${\mu}c$ -Si:H films, representing the difference of conduction band and Fermi level in an intrinsic semiconductors, increased from 0.22eV to 0.68eV with increasing pressure from 30mTorr to 300mTorr. The increase of $E_a$ with pressure indicates that the deposited films have properties close to intrinsic semiconductors, which is also proved with low dark conductivity of the ${\mu}c$ -Si:H deposited at 300mTorr. The tungsten concentration incorporated into films was about $6{\times}10^{16}atoms/cm^3$ in the samples prepared at wire temperature of 1800$^{\circ}C$.

The structural properties of $HfO_2$ films could be improved by calibrating the working pressure owing to the enhanced quality of a thin film. We deposited $HfO_2$ films on glass substrates by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering under a base vacuum pressure lower than $4.5{\times}10^{-6}Pa$, RF power of 100 W, substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. The working pressures were varied from 1 mTorr to 15 mTorr. Subsequently, their structural and optical properties were investigated. In particular, the $HfO_2$ film deposited at 1 mTorr had superior properties than the others, with a crystallite size of 10.27 nm, surface roughness of 1.173 nm, refractive index of 2.0937 at 550 nm, and 84.85 % transmittance at 550 nm. These results indicate that the $HfO_2$ film deposited at 1 mTorr is suitable for application in transparent electric devices.

The effects of reaction temperature and the level of hydration(water activity) were studied for gas phase reactions of alcohol oxidase and alcohol dehydrogenase immobilized on DEAE-cellulose and controlled pore glass(CPG). Optimum reaction temperature zone of gas phase reaction was similar to that of aqueous phase reaction. The activity of alcohol oxidase increased dramatically and the stability decreased when the water activity was increased from 0.3 to 0.8. The apparent activation energies of the gas phase reaction decreased approaching the values obtained in the aqueous phase reaction as the water activity increased. In the both cases of alcohol oxidase and alcohol dehydrogenase, the rate constants of the gas phase reaction were lower than those of aqueous phase reaction by two orders of magnitude and these results could be correlated to the vapor-liquid equilibrium data of the substrate, ethanol.

Super hydrophilic $TiO_2$ thin films with photocatalytic property were successfully fabricated on a glass substrate by liquid phase deposition (LPD). The $TiO_2$ thin film formed nano particles on a surface at $70^{\circ}C$. As an immersion time in $TiF_4$ solution increased, the thickness of thin films gradually increased. $TiO_2$ thin film showed a water contact angel of below ca. $5^{\circ}$ and the transmittance of ca. 75~90 % in visible range. In addition, $TiO_2$ thin film showed the photocatalytic property to decompose methyl orange solution by the illumination of UV light. The surface morphologies, optical properties and contact angel of prepared thin films with a different immersion time were measured by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM), UV-Vis spectrophotometer and contact angle meter.

1-, 3-, 9-, and 21-Monolayer Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films of stearic acid were deposited on silver-coated glass slides at the surface pressure of 30 mN/m. Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) reflection-absorption spectra (RAS) of these LB films were recorded at various temperatures from 31 to $72^{\circ}C.$ The spectra at $31^{\circ}C$ exhibited characteristic features of highly perpendicular orientation of the hydrocarbon chain. In the 1-monolayer LB film, the C=O stretching band was not observed, presumably due to the image dipole effect on the silver surface. In the 1-and 3-monolayer LB films, the trans isomer of stearic acid was prominent, but the cis isomer was dominant in the 21-monolayer LB film. FTIR-RAS measurements at an elevated temperature indicated that the chain melting temperature increases and approached to the bulk melting point with increasing the number of monolayer, except for the 1-monolayer LB film which has a higher melting temperature than the 3-monolayer film due to the strong interaction with the silver substrate.
