Thickness optimization of heavily doped p-type seeding layer was studied to improve performance of thin film silicon solar cell. We used liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) to grow active layer of $25{\mu}m$ thickness on $p^+$ seeding layer. The cells with $p^+$ seeding layer of $10{\mu}m\;to\;50{\mu}m$ thickness were fabricated. The highest efficiency of a cell is 12.95%, with $V_{oc}=633mV,\;J_{sc}=26.5mA/cm^2$, FF = 77.15%. The $p^+$ seeding layer of the cell is $20{\mu}m$ thick. As thicker seeding layer than $20{\mu}m$, the performance of the cell was degraded. The results demonstrate that the part of the recombination current is due to the heavily doped seeding layer. Thickness of heavily doped p-type seeding layer was optimized to $20{\mu}m$. The performance of solar cell is expected to improve with the incorporation of light trapping as texturing and AR coating.

$(Pb_{1-x}La_x)TiO_3$ (x = 0.1) 박막을 초음파분무 MOCVD법으로 ITO-coated glass 기판 위에 제조하였다. PLT 박막 제조 시 후열처리 및 seeding layer가 결정화 및 미세구조, 전기적 특성에 대한 영향을 알아보았다. 후열처리에 의하여 박막의 결정성은 향상되었고 미세구조에도 영향을 주었으며, 전기적 특성은 이들 특성의 변화에 의해서 향상되었다. 그리고 seeding layer에 의한 핵 생성자리 제공에 의하여 결정성의 향상과 grain 크기의 증가에 의하여 박막의 전기적 특성 또한 향상되었다. Seeding layer를 가지고 60분 동안 후열처리를 한 박막이 가장 우수한 전기적 특성을 나타내었으며 이 박막의 1 kHz에서 유전 상수는 213을 나타내었다.

Sol-gel법을 이용하여 PbTiO3에 La을 10mol% 도핑한 박막을 bare Si(100)-wafer 위에 스핀 코팅법을 이용하여 제조하였다. 제조된 박막의 열처리 온도에 따른 결정화 거동을 살펴보고, 씨앗층(seeding layer)을 도입하여 박막의 미세구조 및 배향성을 SEM과 XRD로 관찰하였다. 씨앗층없이 일반적으로 제조된 박막의 경우는 우선 배향성을 나타내지 않았으나, 씨앗층을 도입한 경우에는 씨앗층의 두께 및 열처리 시간에 따라 막의 배향성이 달라졌다.

For low-emissivity application on window glass, coalescence of thin film silver islands is crucial for high transmittance in the visible and high reflectance in the infrared. It is well known that the underlayer affects the growth mode. In this work, the effect of the underlayer on the growth of silver films deposited by filtered cathodic vacuum arc is discussed. While a nominal 0.1 nm niobium underlayer has promoted the coalescence of silver islands, a 0.2 nm layer did not show these features. From a thermodynamic approach, Nb seeding less one monolayer is considered to reduce the surface energy between the silver atoms and $Nb/TiO_2$ surface, resulting the change of its growth from 3D islands to 2D-layer modes. If the seed layer exceeds one monolayer, however, a rougher surface is formed because the surface energy of Nb itself is superior to that of $Nb-TiO_2$. The onset of silver layer on the roughened Nb surface is required more silver.

Blanket Copper films were chemically vapor deposited on six kinds for substrates for scrutinizing the change of characteristics induced by the difference of substrates and seeding layers. Both TiN/Si and {{{{ { SiO}_{2 } }}/Si wafers were used as-recevied and with the Cu-seeding layers of 40${\AA}$ and 160${\AA}$ which were produced by sputtering The CVD processes were exectued at the deposition temperatures between 130$^{\circ}C$ and 260$^{\circ}C$ us-ing (hfc)Cu(VTMS) as a precursor. The deposition rate of 40$^{\circ}C$ Cu-seeded substrates was higher than that of other substrates and especially in seeded {{{{ { SiO}_{2 } }}/Si substrate because of the incubation period reducing in-duced by seeding layer at the same deposition time and temperature. The resistivity of 160${\AA}$ Cu seeded substrate was lower then that of 40 ${\AA}$ because the nucleation and growth behavior in Cu-island is different from the behavior in {{{{ { SiO}_{2 } }} substrate due to the dielectricity of {{{{ { SiO}_{2 } }}.

ICB 공정으로 선행 증착한 Cu Seeding 층이 이후의 CVD 공정으로 증착하는 최종의 Cu 박막의 기계적 전기적 특성에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였고, seening을 하지 않은 CVD-Cu 박막과의 특성을 비교하였다. seeding 층을 형성한 경우의 CVD-Cu 박막에 있어서 증착 속도가 증가하였으며, grain 크기의 균일성도 향상되는 경향을 보였다. 증착된 Cu 박막은 seening에 무관하게 모두 FCC 우선배향인 (111)의 결정배향을 나타냈으며, seeding 우에 성정된 박막의 경우 $I_{111}/I_{200}$비가 향상되었다.$ 180^{\circ}C$의 동일 조건하에서 증착하는 경우 $40\AA$ seeding층 위에 성장한 박막의 전기비저항이 $2.42\mu$$\Omega$.cm로 낮은 값을 나타내었으며, 130$\AA$ seeding 경우는 오히려 전기비저항이 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다. Cu 박막의 접착력은 seeding층의 두께가 $0\AA$에서 $130\AA$으 증가함에 따라 21N에서 27N 으로 향상되었다.

Continuous and dense ZIF-7 membranes were successfully synthesized on ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ porous substrate via two-step crystallization technique. ZIF-7 seeding layer was first deposited on porous ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ substrate by in-situ low temperature crystallization, and then ZIF-7 membrane layer can be grown through the secondary high-temperature crystallization. Two synthesis solutions with different concentration were used to prepare ZIF-7 seeding layer and membrane layer on porous ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ substrate, respectively. As a result, a continuous and defect-free ZIF-7 membrane layer can be prepared on porous ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ substrate, as confirmed by scanning electron microscope. XRD characterization shows that the resulting membrane layer is composed of pure ZIF-7 phase without any impurity. A single gas permeation test of $H_2$, $O_2$, $CH_4$ or $CO_2$ was conducted based on our prepared ZIF-7 membrane. The ZIF-7 membrane exhibited excellent H2 molecular sieving properties due to its suitable pore aperture and defect-free membrane layer.
