Adhesion of Cu/Cr and Cu/$Cu_xCr_{1-x}$ thin films onto polyimide substrates has been studied. For an adhesion layer, Cr or Cu-Cr alloy films were deposited onto polyimide using DC magnetron sputtering machine. Then Cu was sputter-deposited and finally, Cu was electroplated. Adhesion was evaluated using $90^{\circ}C$ peel test or T-peel test. Plastic deformation of the peeled metal layer was qualitatively measured using XRD technique. It is confirmed that high interfacial fracture energy and large plastic deformation are important to enhance the peel adhesion strength. High peel strength is obtained when the interface is strongly bonded. More ductile film has higher peel strength. In Cu-Cr alloy films, opposite effects of the Cr addition in the alloy film on the peel strength are operative: a beneficial effect of strong interfacial bonding and a negative effect of smaller plastic deformation.

Polarized ultraviolet irradiation techniques have been developed recently to produce alignment of liquid crystals (LC). Because of the excellent thermal stability and the alignment ablility of polyimides, polyimides has attracted considerable research interest for the photoinduced alignment layer. Hasegawa and Taira confirmed homogeneous alignment of LC by the decompostion of a polyimide induced by lineraly ultra-violet polarized light. It was reported that ultraviolet visible absorption spectra of a polyimide alignment film showed a remarkable change upon irradiation. In this study, we synthesized phthalic polyimide and a naphthalenic polyimide in order to investigate the effect of the polyimide structure. Some difference in terms of the photo-induced molecular orientaion of liquid crystals were observed with the polyimide structure.

고분자 주사슬에 벤젠과 sulfonyloxvimide moiety를 가지고 있는 polyamic acid 초박막을 LB 기법을 이용하여 제조한 다음 200 $^{\circ}C$에서 1시간 동안 열처리에 의해 감광성 폴리이미드 LB 필름을 얻었다. Polyamic acid는 THF-pyridine 공용매를 가지고 축중합에 의해 합성하였다. 모든 단량체와 고분자는 원소분석, FT-IR, $^1$H-NMR의 분광학적 측정을 통해 정량 정성분석을 행하였다. UV lithography 방법을 사용하여 금 기판 위에 제조한 감광성 폴리이미드 LB 필름의 마이크로 어레이 패턴을 제조하였다. 형성된 마이크로 어레이 패턴을 따라 두 가지의 자기조립 방법으로 단백질 cytochrome c 단분자 막을 고정화시켰다. 자기조립된 cytochrome c 단분자 막의 물리ㆍ전기 화학적 특성은 cyclic voltammetry와 AFM을 통해 조사하였으며 생물전자소자로의 응용 가능성에 대해서도 검토하였다.

Iridium oxide films (IROFs) have been extensively studied as a material for electrical stimulation of neurons, as iridium oxide has higher charge storage capacity than other metal films. More recently, sputtered iridium oxide film (SIROF) has been studied, because it can be made more conveniently than activated iridium oxide film (AIROF). Typically, the SIROFs are grown at temperatures from 400 to 600 $^{\circ}C$. However, such high temperatures cannot be used when the iridium oxide (IrOx) film is to be deposited on a flexible polymer material, such as polyimide. In this paper, we show that we can still obtain excellent characteristics in SIROFs grown without heating (cold SIROF), by optimizing the growth conditions. We show that the oxygen flow rate is a critical parameter for controlling the surface properties of a cold SIROF. At an oxygen flow rate of 12 seem, the cold SIROF exhibited a charge storage capacity (CSC) of 60 mC/cm$^2$, which is comparable to or better than other published values for iridium oxide films including heated SIROFs. The film produced under these conditions also had the minimum impedance value of all cold SIROFs deposited for this study. A stability test and biocompatibility test also demonstrated the superiority of the optimized cold SIROF.

In DTP systems, satisfactory matching the appearance of displayed image on CRT and that of a reproduced binary image is very important. Most halftoning techniques assume that the printed color dots are square. However, most printers produce roughly circular dots. Thus, there is overlap between adjacent dots, and dots accupy adjcent space that should be empty space. These results are because the significant image distortion on the reproduced images. In this paper, we proposed a new tone correction digital halftoning method based on equi-visual perception characteristic.

Polyimide(PI)위에서 Cu의 초기 성장과정을 설명하기 위해, PI 위에 Cu를 조금씩 증착시키면서 그리고 PI 위에 Cu 층을 쌓아놓고 이 Cu 층을 $Ar^+$ 이온으로 깍아내면서 계면에서의 변화를 XPS를 이용하여 비교ㆍ관측하였다. 상온에서 PI위에 Cu를 조금씩 증착하면서 관측하였을 때, 그 성장과정에 따르는 phase의 변화는 Cu-N-O complex에서 $Cu_2O$ phase로, 그리고 metallic Cu 순으로 성장하는 것이 관측되었다. 반면에 PI위에 증착되어 있는 Cu를 조금씩 깎아내면서 관측하였을 때, metallic Cu가 $Ar^+$ 이온으로 깍아내어 polyimide와의 계면에 도달하게 되었을 때에는 Cu$_2$O phase로서 관측되었다. 이상의 결과로부터, in-situ로 Cu를 조금씩 올리면서 계면을 조사하는 것과 Cu를 증착시킨 후, 깍으면서 계면을 조사하는 것과는 다른 결과를 얻게 된다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

We studied liquid crystal (LC) alignment with ion beam (IB) on polyimide and electro-optical characteristics of twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) on the polyimide surface using obliquely ion beam exposure. A good uniform alignment of the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) alignment with the ion beam exposure on the polyimide surface was observed. In addition, it can be achieved the good EO properties, and residual DC property of the ion-beam-aligned TN-LCD on polyimide surface.

In this study, we intended to investigate aging effect of polyimide prepared by VDPD(vapor deposition polymerized method). The prepared polymide was treated by the oxygen and argon gas plasma. And we evaluated the polyimide treated by plasma from contact angle, surface leakage current, FT-IR and SEM. We know that the structure of polyimide at surface are changed to amide structure by plasma treating. It seems that strong energy of plasma causes breaking the molecular chin of the polyimide. And surface roughness increases with plasma treating time increased and sequentially the wettability and leakage current increases.

The influence of ion implantation on surface properties of polymers was studied. We investigated microhardness, friction, wear and wettablility of polyimide. Energies of 50, 200keV were used with doses range from $1{\times}10^{13} to 1{\times}10^{16} [ions/cm^2]$. The implanted ion species were B, N and Ar. The microhardness of polyimide was increased after implantation for doses of $1{\times}10^{15}\; [ions/cm^2]$. A reduction of the friction coefficient was in most case correlated with a reduction of wear. The contact angles of water for $B^+,N^+$ implanted polyimide decreased from $76^{\circ}C$ to zero, as the fluencies increased at energies of 50 and 200 KeV. However, the contact angle of Ar ion implanted polyimide did not change under ambient room conditions even if the time elapsed. SEM measurement was performed to characterize the modified surface layer.

Polyimide films have excellent thermal stability, reliable mechanical properties and low dielectric constant. Therefore, this material is widely used in many industrial fields such as microelectronics, flexible circuits, semiconductor products and aerospace materials. In space applications, earth-orbiting hardware operates in environments that generally include neutral particles, charged particles such as trapped protons and electrons, solar protons, and cosmic rays. Under these conditions, polyimide films were changed in the optical, electrical and mechanical properties. Therefore, in this study, we evaluated the effects of electron beam irradiation on polyimide. The O-H functional groups were created on the polyimide film surface in the results of FT-IR spectra. And it was found that the dielectric constants were changed as a function of electron beam dose.
