Transparent metal cathodes using Ca/Ag, Ba/Ag double layers have been fabricated to investigate its optical transmission. The transmission spectra show that Ca/Ag and Ba/Ag double layers result in higher transmittance compared to Ag single layer. The Ba/Ag double layer shows over 80% transmittance at 400 nm and 70% at 700 nm. The electroluminescence efficiency of fluorescent TEOLED using Ba/Ag transparent metal cathode was 10 ~ 15 cd/A.

Low emissivity glass for high transparency in the visible range and low emissivity in the IR (infrared) range was fabricated and investigated. The multilayers were have been fabricated, and consisted of two outer oxide layers and a middle layer of Ag as a metal layer. Oxide layers were formed by rf sputtering and metal layers were formed using by an evaporator at room temperature. SiInZnO (SIZO) film was used as an oxide layer. The OMO (oxide-metaloxide) structures of SIZO/Ag/SIZO were analyzed by using transmittance, AFM (atomic force microscopye), and XRD (X-ray diffraction). The OMO multilayer structure was designed to investigate the effect of Ag layer thickness on the optical property of the OMO structure.

Joining of AIN ceramics to W and Cu by active-metal brazing method was tried with use of (Ag-Cu)-Ti alloy as insert-metal. Joints were produced under various conditions of temperature, holding time and Ti-content in (Ag-Cu) alloy Reaction and microstructural development in bonded interface were investigated through observation and analysis by SEM/EDS, EPMA and XRD. Joint strengths were measured by shear test. Bonded interface consists of two layers: an insert-metal layer of eutectic Ag- and Cu-rich phases and a reaction layer of TiN. Thickness of reaction layer increases with bonding temperature, holding time and Ti-content of insert-metal. It was confirmed that the growth of reaction layer is a diffusion-controlled process. Activation energy for this process was 260 KJ/mol which is lower than that for N diffusion in TiN. Maximum shear strength of 108 MPa and 72 MPa were obtained for AIN/W and AIN/Cu joints, respectively. Relationship between processing variables, joint strength and thickness of reaction layer was also explained.

Transparent conducting films having a hybrid structure of GZO/Metal/GZO were prepared on glass substrates by sequential deposition using DC magnetron sputtering. Silver, copper, aluminum and zinc thin films were used as the intermediate metal layers in the hybrid structure. The electrical and optical properties of hybrid transparent conducting films were investigated with varying the thickness of metal layer or GZO layers. With increasing the metal thickness, hybrid films showed a noticeable improvement of the electrical conductivity, which is mainly dependent on the electrical property of the metal layer. GZO(40 nm)/Ag(10 nm)/GZO(40 nm) film exhibits a resistivity of $5.2{\times}10^{-5}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ with an optical transmittance of 82.8%. For the films with Zn interlayer, only marginal reduction in the resistivity was observed. Furthermore, unlike other metals, hybrid films with Zn interlayer showed a decrease in the resistivity with increasing the GZO thickness. The optimal thickness of GZO layer for anti-reflection effect at a given thickness of metal (10 nm) was found to be critically dependent on the refractive index of the metal. In addition, x-ray diffraction analysis showed that the insertion of Ag layer resulted in the improvement of crystallinity of GZO films, which is beneficial for the electrical and optical properties of hybrid-type transparent conducting films.

In Ti active brazing of YSZ to STS 430 using Ag-Cu Filler Metal, the effect of Ti contents on the shear bonding strength were investigated together with the effect of brazing temperature and holding time. The addition of Ti in Ag-Cu Filler Metal increased the bonding strength up to 4.68% Ti, followed by the decrease with further addition. This seems to be caused by formation of TixOy at the reaction layer. Brazing temperature was optimized at $960^{\circ}C$ among a given temperature ranges. The addion of Sn to Ag-Cu filler metal brought the decrease of its melting temperature its melting temperature without a significant decrease of bonging strength.

Electrical and optical properties of semitransparent Ag and Al layer were studied, which are used for the electrodes in top-emission organic light-emitting diodes. Sheet resistance and transmittance of visible light through a thin layer were measured and analyzed. Several thin metal layers of Ag and Al were deposited onto a glass substrate up to a thickness of 50 nm using a thermal evaporation. Sheet resistance measurements show that a layer thickness is needed more than 15 nm and 20 nm for Ag and Al, respectively, when a proper sheet resistance is assumed to be less than $50{\Omega}/sq$. From the measurements of transmittance of visible light through a thin-metal layer, metallic behavior was observed when the layer thickness is over 25 nm for both films. Thus, from a study of sheet resistance and transmittance of visible light, a minimum proper thickness of semitransparent metal layer is 20 nm and 25 nm for Ag and Al, respectively.

국내 에너지 소비량의 21.6%가 건물 분야에 소비되고 있다. 창호는 벽체에 비해 8~10배 이상 낮은 단열 특성을 가지기 때문에 열 손실량이 크다. 유리는 창호를 이루는 요소 중 가장 큰 면적을 차지하고 있으며, 창호의 단열성능을 2배로 향상시키면 30% 이상 건물의 에너지 절감 효과를 가질 수 있다. 창호의 단열 성능을 향상시키기 위해서 Low-e(emissivity) 기술 연구가 진행 중이다. 이번 실험에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 시스템을 사용하여 XG 유리기판 위에 ZnO박막을 증착하고, evaporator 장비를 사용하여 metal층인 Ag를 증착하였다. 그리고 다시 한번 ZnO박막을 증착하였다. Low-e 연구에 활용할 수 있는지를 확인하기 위해 XRD, AFM, 투과도를 측정하였다. ZnO박막의 증착 조건은 초기압력 $3.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr, 공정압력 $2.0{\times}10^{-2}$ Torr, RF파워 30 W, Ar gas는 50 sccm, 증착온도는 상온으로 하였다. Metal층인 Ag를 증착하기 위해 evaporator의 증착 조건은 Rotate rate 2 rpm, voltage 0.3V, 공정압력 $5.0{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr이며, 변수로 Ag두께를 3,5,7,9,11,13,15 nm로 하였다. AFM 측정결과 Ag두께가 증가할수록 RMS roughness값이 높아졌으며, 최소 0.71 nm의 거칠기를 가지는 것을 확인하였다. XRD분석결과 37도 부근의 피크가 발생하여 ZnO 박막이 결정질 구조임을 확인할 수 있었다. 그리고 UV-Visible-NIR 분광 광도계를 이용하여 광학적 투과를 측정한 결과 Ag두께가 13 nm일 때 가시광 영역의 투과도가 최대 75%, 적외선 영역의 투과도가 최소 28%로 좋은 차단 특성을 가지는 것을 확인하였다. 위 결과들로 ZnO 박막이 Low-e 기술에 활용될 수 있음을 확인하였다.

In this study, a new manufacturing process for a multilayer-clad electrical contact material is suggested. A thin and dense BCuP-5 (Cu-15Ag-5P filler metal) coating layer is fabricated on a Ag plate using a high-velocity oxygen-fuel (HVOF) process. Subsequently, the microstructure and bonding properties of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer are evaluated. The thickness of the HVOF BCuP-5 coating layer is determined as 34.8 ㎛, and the surface fluctuation is measured as approximately 3.2 ㎛. The microstructure of the coating layer is composed of Cu, Ag, and Cu-Ag-Cu3P ternary eutectic phases, similar to the initial BCuP-5 powder feedstock. The average hardness of the coating layer is 154.6 HV, which is confirmed to be higher than that of the conventional BCuP-5 alloy. The pull-off strength of the Ag/BCup-5 layer is determined as 21.6 MPa. Thus, the possibility of manufacturing a multilayer-clad electrical contact material using the HVOF process is also discussed.
