마이크로 컬럼은 차세대 리소그라피 기술의 하나로 마이크로 컬럼의 기능이 기존의 전자빔 컬럼을 능가하여 주목을 받는다. 초소형 전자빔 컬럼은 기존의 전자빔 컬럼과 비교하여 수차, 렌즈의 크기 및 원형에 성능이 보다 민감하게 반응하므로 정확한 정렬과 가공 기술은 초소형 전자빔 마이크로 컬럼의 성능에 매우 중요하다. 그러나, 기준치 piezoelectric transducer (PZT)나 scanning tunneling microscopy (STM)을 이용한 정렬 기술은 매우 복잡하고 어려운 단점이 있다. 본 연구에시는 레이저 회절 패턴방식과 레이저 정밀 가공으로 실리콘 렌즈와 파이렉스 spacer를 정확하게 교대로 조립하였으며, 이 방법으로 완성된 마이크로 컬럼의 STEM동작을 조사하였다.

We studied Nb growth mode on Cu(100) surface by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) at room temperature. Nb/Cu is immiscible at room temperature and thus is an ideal system for studying surface alloy formation. Initially deposited Nb atoms are incorporated subsurface on Cu(100). After annealing, they are preferentially found at step edges and appear as bright dots surrounded by dark rings. Ordering emerges from step edges as annealed. Ordered ({{{{ SQRT { 5} }$\times${{{{ SQRT { 5} }}}})R 26.6$^{\circ}$phase Nb structure is formed at $\theta$<0.2ML after annealing to 50$0^{\circ}C$. At higher coverage, $\theta$>0.25, annealing leads to p(2$\times$2) phase. due to large mismatch in lattice parameters, the domain is limited to a few tens of nm2. Growth kinetics of the system will be discussed.

Thin Ag films deposited onto $SiO_2/Si$ substrates by DC magnetron sputtering and thereafter annealed ,it temperatures 100-50$0^{\circ}C$ are investigated by scanning tunneling and atomic forte microscopy. It is shown that the film surface topography and microstructure are considerably changed as a result of annealing. To provide a quantitative estimation of the surface topography changes of Ag films the surface fractal dimension was calculated. Elasticity and hardness of the films are studied by a nanoindentation technique. The films are found to have value of elastic modulus close to that of bulk silver while their hardness and yield stress are essentially higher.

Device miniaturization and high integrated circuit design is of major interest for the development of electronic devices. Various studies have been conducted to develop new material and processing technique[1]. Negative Differential Resistance(NDR) is the defining behavior in several electronic components, including the Esaki diode and most notably, resonant tunneling diodes(RTD)[2]. We made a comparison of electrical properties between 4,4-Di(ethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-(thioacetyl)benzene and 4-[2,5-dimethoxy-4-(p henylethynyl)phenyl]ethynylphenylethanethioate, which have been well known as a conducting molecule having possible application to molecular level NDR devices. As a result, we measured current-voltage curves using Scanning Tunneling microscopy(STM), I-V curves also showed several current peaks between negative and positive bias region.

Micro punching is one of general methods to fabricate simple holes such as permanent ink-jet printer nozzles. A thin punch, that is need for micro punching, usually has been obtained by mechanical machining. There are some method to obtain a thin punch from a cylindrical rod, e.g., microgrinding and WEDG (Wire Electro-Discharge Grinding). Inefficiently, only one punch can be obtained from these machining methods. In contrast with these methods, many punches can be fabricated simultaneously by electrochemical process. Electrochemical process has usually aimed to obtain very sharp probe for atomic force microscopy (AFM) or scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), and it has not been considered the whole shape of a probe in spite of good merits. In this paper, an ultrathin punch with a tapered shape and a cylindrical tip is newly fabricated by electrochemical process.

The characteristic of negative differential resistance(NDR) is decreased current when the applied voltage is increased. The NDR is potentially very useful in molecular electronics device schemes. Here, we investigated the NDR property of self-assembled 4,4- Di(ethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-(thioacetyl)benzene, which has been well known as a conducting molecule. Self-assembly monolayers(SAMs) were prepared on Au(111), which had been thermally deposited onto pre-treatment$(H_2SO_4:H_2O_2=3:1)$ Si. The Au substrate was exposed to a 1mM/l solution of 1-dodecanethiol in ethanol for 24 hours to form a monolayer. After thorough rinsing the sample, it was exposed to a $0.1{\mu}M/l$ solution of 4,4-Di(ethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-(thioacetyl)benzene in dimethylformamide(DMF) for 30 min and kept in the dark during immersion to avoid photo-oxidation. After the assembly, the samples were removed from the solutions, rinsed thoroughly with methanol, acetone, and $CH_2Cl_2$, and finally blown dry with $N_2$. Under these conditions, we measured electrical properties of self-assembly monolayers(SAMs) using ultra high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy(UHV-STM). The applied voltages were from -2V to +2V with 299K temperature. The vacuum condition is $6{\times}10^{-8}$ Torr. As a result, we found the NDR voltage of the nitro-benzene is $-1.61{\pm}0.26$ V(negative region) and $1.84{\pm}0.33$ (positive region), respectively.

In this study, we fabricated the organic thin film by self-assembly method by using nitro-group and methoxy-group organic molecule. Also, we selected the organic single molecule in organic thin film and measured current-voltage characteristics by using scanning tunneling microscopy. The Organic molecules that use in an experiment is 4,4'-(diethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-benzen ethiol and 4-[2,5-dimethoxy-4-ph enylethynylphenyl]ethynylphenylethanthiol. 4,4'-(dimet hynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-benzenethiol is applied widely in molecular electronic device and 4-[2,5-dime thoxy-4-phenylethynylphenyl]ethynylphenylethanthiol composed in Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology. To be confirmed the formation of the self-assembled monolayers, we observed the real time frequency shift of the QCM and investigated surface of the self-assembled monolayers the using STM. With this, we measured current to the organic single molecule, in condition of the air state. As a result, we confirmed in constant voltage that properties of negative differential resistance. Using properties of negative differential resistance to get from this study, application is expected to be molecular switching device, memory device and logic device.

Graphene have showed promising performance as electrodes of organic devices such as organic transistors, light-emitting diodes, and photovoltaic solar cells. In particular, among various organic materials of graphene-based organic devices, pentacene has been regarded as one of the promising organic material because of its high mobility, chemical stability. In the bottom-contact device configuration generally used as graphene based pentacene devices, the morphology of the organic semiconductors at the interface between a channel and electrode is crucial to efficient charge transport from the electrode to the channel. For the high quality morphology, understanding of initial stages of pentacene growth is essential. In this study, we investigate self-assembly of pentacene molecules on graphene formed on a 6H-SiC (0001) substrate by scanning tunneling microscopy. At sub-monolayer coverage, adsorption of pentacene molecules on epitaxial graphene is affected by $6{\times}6$ pattern originates from the underlying buffer layer. And the orientation of pentacene in the ordered structure is aligned with the zigzag direction of the edge structure of single layer graphene. As coverage increased, intermolecular interactions become stronger than molecule-substrate interaction. As a result, herringbone structures the consequence of higher intermolecular interaction are observed.

Understanding adsorption behavior organic molecules at oxide surfaces is very important for the application of organic-inorganic hybrid materials. Recently, monoethanolamine (MEA) adsorbed on $TiO_2$ surface has received great interests because it can lower the work function of $TiO_2$ in photo-electronic devices such as OLED and solar cells. In this study, we investigated the role of surface defects in adsorption behaviors of MEA at the rutile $TiO_2$ (110) surface by combined study of scanning tunneling microscopy and density functional theory calculations. Our results revealed that oxygen vacancy is the most stable adsorption site for MEA on $TiO_2$ (110) surface at low coverage. As coverage increases, the oxygen vacancies are occupied with the molecules and MEA molecules start to adsorb at Ti rows at higher coverages. Our results show that the defects at oxide surfaces and the intermolecular interactions are important factors for determining stable adsorption structure of MEA at $TiO_2$ (110) surfaces.
