  • We demonstrate highly manufacturable Multi-channel Field Effect Transistor (McFET) on bulk Si wafer. McFET shows excellent transistor characteristics, such as $5{\sim}6 times higher drive current than planar MOSFET, ideal subthreshold swing, low drain induced barrier lowering (DIBL) without pocket implantation and negligible body bias dependency, maintaining the same source/drain resistance as that of a planar transistor due to the unique feature of McFET. And suitable threshold voltage ($V_T$) for SRAM operation and high static noise margin (SNM) are achieved by using TiN metal gate electrode.

  • Controlling the wafer temperatures from 200 to$500^{\circ}C$, low resistive tungsten thin films used for VLSI metallization are deposited by PECVD method. Resistivities of plasma deposited tungsten thin films are very sensitive to the $H_2/WF_6 $ partial pressure ratios. Residual stress behaviors of the films as a function of plasma power density were also studied. At the power density under the $0.7W/\textrm{cm}^2$, residual stress of W film is about $2.4\times10^9dyne/\textrm{cm}^2$. When the power density is. however, increased from 1.8 to $2.7W/\textrm{cm}^2$, residual stress is suddenly increased from $8.1\times10^9$ to $1.24\times10^{10}dyne/\textrm{cm}^2$ ue to the ion or radical bombardment at high power density.

  • Near band infrared imaging technique has adopted for imaging EL2 and shallow level distributions in undoped semi-insulating LEC GaAs. This technique, which relies on the mapping of near bandgap infrared transmission, is both rapid and non-destructive. Until now no quantitative analysis has been reported for near band edge region which gives the reverse contrast on EL2 absorption images. This paper presents the spectral, spatial and temperature dependence of photoquenching forward and inverse mechanism in the band edge domain for cells and walls and for direct and inverted contrast conditions during transitory regimes. The difference in the threshold for the EL2w and EL2b defects could be attributed to the contribution of a different electrical assistance due to a different species of impurities. Quantitative analysis results show an increased density of EL2w and a small reduction of EL2b in the region of the walls where there is a high density of dislocations.

  • PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) thin films were prepared from the pellets of the graphite doped PTFE via pulsed laser ablation with 1064 nm Nd:YAG laser. The graphite powder converts the absorbed photon energy into thermal energy which is transmitted to nearby PTFE. The PTFE is decomposed by thermal process. The deposited films were transparent and crystalline. SEM (scanning electron microscopy) and AFM (atomic force microscopy) analyses indicated that the film surface morphology changed to fibrous structure with increasing thickness. The fluorine to carbon ratios of the film were 1.7 and molecular axis was parallel with (100) Si-wafer substrate. These results obtained by XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), FTIR (fourier transform infrared spectroscopy) and XRD (X-ray diffraction).

  • 희토류계 영구자석은 대부분의 전기, 전자 제품의 핵심부품이며 높은 보자력, $BH_{max}$를 가지고 있어 자기기록저장매체, MEMS(엑츄에이터), 소형센서, 소형모터 등의 응용 분야에 적용시키기 위해 다양한 연구들이 진행되고 있다. 그러나 영구자석에 들어가는 희토류계 원소의 수급의 어려움 및 가격의 문제점으로 친환경 자석으로의 전환 및 희토류나 중희토류를 사용하지 않는 비희토류계 영구자석을 제조 및 개발하는데 많은 연구가 이루어지고 있다. 이 중 Fe-N 계 자성물질인 $Fe_{16}N_2$는 포화 자화 값이 현재까지의 비희토류계 자성물질 중 가장 높은 값(240emu/g)을 나타내며 상대적으로 높은 결정자기이방성 상수를 가지고 있어 비희토류계 영구자석 물질 중 하나로 주목받으며 연구되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $Fe_{16}N_2$ 박막을 얻기 위해 DC Magnetron Sputtering 방법을 이용하여 Si wafer 위에 박막을 증착하고 증착시간에 따라 두께를 제어하여 제조한 후 박막의 미세구조, 상 분석, 자성 특성을 관찰을 통해 최적의 공정 조건을 찾고자 하였다. 증착 시간에 따른 박막의 성장 속도는 일정하게 증가하였으며, 증착 시간의 증가에 따라 박막 내 $Fe_{16}N_2$의 상대적인 분율은 감소하였다. 모든 공정 조건에서 $Fe_3N$, $Fe_4N$, $Fe_{16}N_2$ 상들이 섞여 성장하였으며 XRD를 통한 상분석과 더불어 VSM을 통한 자성 특성을 분석해본 결과 $Fe_{16}N_2$의 분율을 가장 높게 성장된 공정 조건은 증착 시간이 10분이며 박막의 두께가 ${\sim}1{\mu}m$ 일 때, 최적의 조건을 얻을 수 있었으며, 이 때의 자성 특성을 분석한 결과 ~2.45T의 포화 자화 값과 ~1.41T의 잔류 자화 값을 얻을 수 있었다.

  • The surface protein hemagglutinin (HA) mediates the attachment of influenza virus to host cells containing sialic acid and thus facilitates viral infection. Therefore, HA is considered as a good target for the development of diagnostic tools for influenza virus. Previously, we reported the isolation of single-stranded aptamers that can distinguish influenza subtype H1 from H5. In this study, we describe a method for the selective electrical detection of H1 using the isolated aptamer as a molecular probe. After immobilization of the aptamer on Si wafer, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) showed that the immobilized aptamer bound specifically to the H1 subtype but not to the H5 subtype. Assessment by cyclic voltammetry (CV) also demonstrated that the immobilized aptamer on the indium thin oxide-coated surface was specifically bound to the H1 subtype only, which was consistent with the ELISA and FE-SEM results. Further measurement of CV using various amounts of H1 subtype provided the detection limit of the immobilized aptamer, which showed that a nanomolar scale of target protein was sufficient to produce the signal. These results indicated that the selected aptamer can be an effective probe for distinguishing the subtypes of influenza viruses by monitoring current changes.

  • In this study, the mechanical properties of a Ti thin film are measured by a bulge test. In the bulge test, uniform pressure is applied to one side of the film. Measurement of the membrane deflection as a function of the applied pressure allows one to determine the mechanical properties of the film. Ti thin films with thicknesses of 1.0, 1.5, and $2.0{\mu}m$ were deposited on a Si wafer by using an RF magnetron sputtering system. These specimens were annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ for 150, 300, and 600 s to investigate the effect of temperature on the yield stress and mechanical properties of the Ti films. The elastic modulus, residual stress, and yield stress of these membranes are measured by a bulge test. The experimental results suggest that the yield stress is sensitive to the film thickness and annealing time.

  • 투명전도체(Transparent Conducting Oxides: TCOs)는 일반적으로 면저항이 $103{\Omega}/sq$ 이하로 전기가 잘 통하며, 가시광선영역인 380~780 nm에서의 투과율이 80% 이상이고, 3.2eV 이상의 밴드갭을 가지는 재료로써, 전기전도도와 가시광선영역에서 투과성이 높아 전기적, 광학적 재료로 관심을 받아 다년간 연구대상이 되어오고 있다. 현재 가장 널리 사용되고 있는 투명전도체(Transparent Conducting Oxides: TCOs) 소재로는 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)가 가장 각광받고 있지만, Indium의 가격상승과 박막의 열처리를 통해 저항이 증가하는 단점을 가지고 있어 이를 대체 할 새로운 소재 개발이 필요한 상황이다. 그러므로 투명전도체 소재 개발에 있어서 가장 중요한 연구과제는 Indium Tin Oxide(ITO)의 단점을 개선시키고 안정된 고농도의 In-Zn-Sn-O(ITZO) 박막을 성장시키는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 RF스퍼터링법에 의하여 Si wafer에 In-Zn-Sn-O(IZTO)를 $350{\AA}$ 만큼 증착시키고, 1시간 동안 $300^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$로 각각 열처리 하였다. 박막의 전자적, 광학적 특성은 XPS(X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), REELS(Reflection Electron Energy Loss Spectroscopy)를 이용하여 연구하였다. XPS측정결과, ITZO박막은 In-O, Sn-O and Zn-O의 결합을 가지고 있고, 박막의 열처리를 통해 $400^{\circ}C$에서 Zn2p의 피크가 가장 크게 나타나는 반면 In3d와 Sn3d는 열처리를 했을 때가 Room Temperature에서 보다 피크가 작아지는 것을 확인하였다. 이는 $400^{\circ}C$에서 Zn가 표면에 편석됨을 나타낸다. 그리고 REELS를 이용해 Ep=1500 eV에서의 밴드갭을 얻어보면, 밴드갭은 $3.25{\pm}0.05eV$로 온도에 크게 변화하지 않았다. 또한 QUEELS -Simulation에 의한 광학적 특성 분석 결과, 가시광선영역인 380nm~780nm에서의 투과율이 83%이상으로 투명전자소자로의 응용이 가능하다는 것을 보여주었다.

  • We investigated a flexible transparent film using the spinning multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Spin-capable MWCNTs on iron catalyzed on a SiO2 wafer was grown by chemical vapor deposition, which was performed at $780^{\circ}C$ using C2H2 and H2 gas. The average diameter and length of MWCNTs grown on the substrate were ~15 nm and $250{\sim}300{\mu}m$, respectively. The MWCNT sheets were produced by continuously pulling out from well-aligned MWCNTs on a substrate. The MWCNT sheet films were produced simply by direct coating on the flexible film or grass. The thickness of sheet film was remarkably decreased by alcohol spraying on the surface of sheet. The alcohol splay increased transmittance and decreased electrical resistance of MWCNT sheet films. Single and double sheets were produced with sheet resistance of ~699 and ${\sim}349{\Omega}/sq$, respectively, transmittance of 81~85 % and 67~72%, respectively. The MWCNT sheet films were heated through the application of direct current power. The flexible transparent heaters showed a rapid thermal response and uniform distribution of temperature. In addition, MWCNT yarns were prepared by spinning a bundle of MWCNTs from vertically super-aligned MWCNTs on a substrate, and field emission from the tip and side of the yarns was induced in a scanning electron microscope. We found that the field emission behavior from the tip of the yarn was better than the field emission from the side. The field emission turn-on voltages from the tip and side of MWCNT yarns were 1.6 and $1.7V/{\mu}m$, respectively, after the yarn was subjected to an aging process. Both the configuration of the tip end and the body of the yarn were changed remarkably during the field emission. We also performed the field emission of the sheet films. The sheet films showed the turn on voltage of ${\sim}1.45V/{\mu}m$ during the field emission.
