In recent years, various artificial molecular photodiode have been fabricated by mimicking the electron transport function of biological photosynthesis. And now, we have been investigated the protein-organic hetero thin film photodiode using GFP as an sensitizer based on the redox potential difference of functional molecules. In this paper, shows molecular photodiode consisting of green fluorescence protein(GFP). viologen and TCNQ. The TCNQ and viologen were deposited onto ITO coated glass by LB technique. And GFP molecule was adsorption onto the viologen LB film surface by self-assembly method. Finally, The Al deposition onto GFP/viologen/TCNQ film surface was performed to make a top electrode. As a result, The MIM(metal/Insulator/Metal) structured device was constructed. The input light of 460nm wavelength was generated by the xenon lamp system, and then the photocurrent produced from the molecular device was detected through a current-voltage(I-V) measuring unit (SMU Model 236, Keithley, USA). An artificial molecular photodiode using protein(GFP)-adsorbed hetero-LB film is presented as a model system for the bioelectronic device based on the biomimesis.

Ta-doped thin films were deposited on quartz and indium-tin oxide glass substrates using a co-sputtering method. The Ta-doped films formed a solid solution that induced structural changes from rutile to anatase phase. The anodic photocurrents of the Ta-doped $TiO_2$ electrodes were observed not only in UV but also in the visible light range. The photocurrent response in visible light on Ta-doped $TiO_2$ films are due to bandgap reduction.

본 연구에서는 DC/RF co-sputtering공법을 통해 제작한 In-Mo-O 투명 Mo doping 농도 및 열처리 온도에 따른 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 특성을 분석하고, 최적화된 In-Mo-O 투명전극을 유기태양전지(OPVs)와 유기발광다이오드(OLED)에 적용하여 그 가능성을 평가하였다. Mo doping 농도는 co-sputtering 공정 중 MoO3에 인가되는 radio-frequency (RF) power를 변화시켜 조절되었으며, 투명전극의 광학적 특성 및 전기적 특성 향상을 위해 성막 공정 후 급속 열처리 공정을 온도 별로 진행하였다. In-Mo-O 투명 전극은 Mo 도핑 농도에 영향을 받음을 확인할 수 있었고, 최적화된 Mo doping 파워에서 성막한 In-Mo-O 박막은 급속 열처리 공정 후 면저항 24.57 Ohm/square, 투과도 81.57% (400~1,200 nm wavelength)를 나타내었다. Bulk hetero-junction 기반의 고효율 유기태양전지와 유기발광다이오드 적용하기 위해 본 연구에서 제작된 IMO 투명전극의 구조적 특성, 결정성 및 표면특성은 x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy(AFM), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) 분석을 통해 진행하였다. In-Mo-O 투명 전극상에 제작된 OLEDs와 OPV는 reference ITO 전극에 제작된 OLEDs/OPV와 비교할 때 유사하거나 향상된 특성을 나타내었으며 이는 In-Mo-O 박막이 OLED/OPV용 투명 전극으로 적용이 가능함을 말해준다.

본 연구에서는 RF/DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링 시스템을 이용하여 co-sputtering 방법으로 TiO2와 ZnO를 이용하여 인버티드 유기태양전지용 버퍼층을 제작하고 TiO2와 ZnO의 함량에 따른 인버티드 유기 태양전지 특성을 비교하였다. Ti-Zn-O 버퍼층은 기존의 버퍼층 제작에 사용되던 용액 공정 대신 스퍼터링 시스템을 이용하여 제작하였다. ITO 전극 상부에 곧바로 Ti-Zn-O를 성막하여 Anode와 버퍼층이 일체화된 투명 전극을 제작하고 ZnO와 TiO2 함량이 유기 태양전지의 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 버퍼층의 TiO2와 ZnO 함량에 따른 광학적, 구조적특성을 UV/Vis spectrometry와 X-ray diffraction (XRD), TEM 등으로 분석하였으며, Ti-Zn-O 박막의 실제 버퍼 층으로서의 적용 가능성을 알아보기 위해 인버티드 유기태양전지로 제작하여 그 특성을 평가하였다. 기존의 인버티드 유기태양전지의 특성이 fill factor of 55.58%, short circuit current of 8.33 mA/cm2, open circuit voltage of 0.66 V, efficiency 3.06%인데 반해 최적 조건의 Ti-Zn-O 버퍼층을 적용했을 경우 fill factor of 52.05%, short circuit current of 8.81 mA/cm2, open circuit voltage of 0.66 V, efficiency 3.03%인 우수한 유기태양전지의 특성을 보임으로써 스퍼터링 공법으로 제작된 Ti-Zn-O 박막의 인버티드 유기태양전지용 버퍼 층으로서의 적용 가능성을 확인하였다.

Stable PZT coating sol was prepared using chelating agent, ethylacetoacetate(EAcAc) by sol-gel processing under ambient atmosphere. Through FT-IR spectrum analysis on solution of each reaction step, formation of metal complex was confirmed and prepared PZT sol was stable over several months. Through TG-DTA, XRD, FT-IR spetrum analysis of PZT gel powder, it was understood that the addition of EAcAc could reduce the transition temperature to ferroelectric phase, due to the increased homogeneity by matching the hydrolysis and condensation rates by chelation. Single perovskite phase was obtained by the heat-treatment at 54$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The film was coated on ITO-coated glass substrate by dip coating method. After heat-treatment, PZT thin film had thickness in the range of 20~130 nm. The maximum dielectric constant of its thin film at room temperature and 1 kHz was 128.

Polycrystalline CdTe thin films have been studied for photovoltaic application because of their high absorption coefficient and optimal band energy(1.45 eV) for solar energy conversion. In this study CdTe thin films were deposited on CdS(chemical bath deposition)/ITO(indium tin oxide) substrate by rf-magnetron sputtering under various conditions. Structural optical and electrical properties are investigated with XRD UV-Visible spectrophotometer SEM and solar simulator respectively. The fabricated CdTe/CdS solar cell exhibited open circuit voltage( $V_{oc}$ ) of 610 mV short circuit current density( $J_{sc}$ ) of 17.2 mA/c $m^2$and conversion efficiency of about 5% at optimal sputtering conditions.

정보 기술 시대에 맞춰 광전소자의 연구가 활발해지면서 투명전극으로 사용될 수 있는 Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) 재료에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 TCO의 대표적인 물질인 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)의 경우 In의 가격 상승으로 인해 최근에는 낮은 전도도와 높은 투과도를 가질 수 있는 대체 물질에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서 3.2 eV 의 높은 밴드갭을 갖는 ZnO 는 가시광선 영역에서 높은 투과율을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 Al, Ga을 도핑함으로써 낮은 전도도를 가질 수 있다. 이러한 TCO 재료는 surface texturing을 통하여 optical region 에서 반사를 억제 시킴으로서 빛을 모으는 역할을 하여 태양전지의 효율을 향상 시킬 수 있기 때문에 PV (Photovoltaics) Cell의 anti-reflective coating에 적용 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 pulsed DC magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) 박막을 증착하였고, HCl 0.5 wt %로 wet etching을 통하여 surface texturing을 진행하였다. 결정성은 X-ray diffractometer (XRD)로 분석하였으며, 표면 형상은 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)을 통해 확인하였다. Van der Pauw 방법을 통해 resistivity, carrier concentration, hall mobility 등의 전기적 특성을 분석하였고 UV-Vis spectrophotometer 를 통해 투과도 및 반사도를 측정하였다.

$Cd_2GeSe_4$ and $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films were prepared on indium-tin-oxide(ITO)-coated glass substrates by using thermal evaporation. The crystallization was achieved by annealing the as-deposited films in flowing nitrogen. X-ray diffraction spectra showed that the $Cd_2GeSe_4$ and the $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films were preferentially grown along the (113) orientation. The crystal structure was rhomohedral(hexagonal) with lattice constants of $a=7.405\;{\AA}$ and $c=36.240\;{\AA}$ for $Cd_2GeSe_4$ and $a=7.43\;{\AA}$ and $c=36.81\;{\AA}$ for $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films. From the scanning electron microscope images, the $Cd_2GeSe_4$ and $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films were plated, and the grain size increased with increasing annealing temperature. The optical energy band gap, measured at room temperature, of the as-deposited $Cd_2GeSe_4$ films was 1.70 eV and increased to about 1.74 eV and of the as-deposited $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films was 1.79 eV and decreased to about 1.74 eV upon annealing in flowing nitrogen at temperatures from $200^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$. The dynamical behavior of the charge carriers in the $Cd_2GeSe_4$ and $Cd_2GeSe_4:Co^{2+}$ films were investigated by using the photoinduced discharge characteristics technique.

As the need for next-generation flexible electronics grows, novel materials and technologies that can replace conventional indium tin oxide (ITO) for transparent electrodes have been of great interest. Among them, a conducting polymer, especially poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) : poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT : PSS) is one of the most promising candidates because it is mechanically flexible, inexpensive, and capable of being processed in solution. Currently, there are a lot of research efforts on enhancing its electrical conductivity to the level of ITO or metal electrodes through chemical and/or physical processing. In this review article, we present various additives and pre-/post-deposition processing methods for improving the electrical conductivity of PEDOT : PSS. Some of representative reports are also introduced, which demonstrated the use of conductivity-enhanced PEDOT : PSS as transparent electrodes in electronics and energy conversion.
