탄소 원자들이 육각형의 벌집 모양으로 배열된 그래핀은 강철보다 200배 이상 강하며, 다이아몬드보다 2배 이상 열전도율이 높으며, 구리보다 100배 이상 전기가 잘 통하며, 실리콘보다 100배 이상 전자가 빠르게 움직일 수 있는 장점이 있다. 그래핀의 이러한 기계적, 열적, 전기적 특성은 에너지 밴드 갭이 없는 그래핀의 전자구조에서 근거하고 있다. 그러나 이러한 에너지 밴드 갭이 없는 그래핀은 반도체가 아닌 준금속의 특성을 보이며, 전자산업의 핵심소자인 트랜지스터로의 상용화에 큰 장벽이 되고 있다. 이러한 그래핀의 단점을 보완하고자 그래핀 이외의 2D 물질에 주목하기 시작하였으며, 그 가운데 최근 $MoS_2$과 같은 Transiton-Metal dichalcogenide(TMD)에 대한 관심이 급증하고 있다. TMD 중 대표적인 물질인 MoS2는 단일 층이 직접 전이 밴드 갭을 가진 반도체로서 전자회로와 발광 다이오드에 이용될 잠재적 가능성을 가진 재료이다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 MoS2 박막 형성을 하기 위해서 대면적이고 저비용으로 만들 수 있는 spin coating을 이용하려고 한다. spin coating을 이용하여 박막을 얻기 위해서는 좋은 wettability가 필수적이므로 이를 개선하기 위하여 용액, 전처리에 따른 wettability를 비교한 후, 열처리를 하여 그 표면을 관찰하고 Raman spectroscopy를 이용하여 분석하여 최적의 조건을 찾기 위한 실험을 하였다.

The influence of the number of solution coatings on the densification of the PZT thick films was studied. PZT powder and PZT precursor solution was prepared by a sol-gel method and PZT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method on the alumina substrates. The powder and solution of composition were (A) PZT(80/20)/PZT(20/80), (B) PZT(70/30)/PZT(30/70) and (C) PZT(60/40)/PZT(40/60), (D) PZT(52/48)/PT. The coating and drying procedure was repeated 4 times. And then the PZT precursor solution was spin-coated on the PZT thick films. A concentration of a coating solution was 0.5 moth and the number of coating was repeated from 0 to 6. The porosity of the thick films was decreased with increasing the number of coatings and the PZT thick films with 6-times coated showed the dense microstructure and thickness of about $60{\mu}m$. A grain size was increased with increasing the coating number. All PZT thick films showed the typical XRD patterns of a typical perovskite polycrystalline structure. The relative dielectric constant of PZT thick films was improved 30-100% as the number of coatings.

We have seen the effects of buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes using poly(N-vinylcarbazole)(PVK). Polymer PVK buffer layer was made using spin casting techniques. Two different types of spin casting have been applied; static coating and dynamic coating. Two device structures were fabricated; one is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al as a reference, and the other is ITO/PVK/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al to see the effects of buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes. Current-voltage characteristics and luminous efficiency were measured with a variation of spin-casting methods and rpm speeds. We have obtained an improvement of luminous efficiency by a factor of two and half when the PVK buffer layer is used.

This study reports the fabrication and application of semitransparent Cu nanoparticle layers. Spin coating and subsequent drying of a Cu colloid solution were performed to deposit Cu nanoparticle layers onto Si and glass substrates. As the spin speed of the spin coating increases, the density of the nanoparticles on the substrate decreases, and the agglomeration of nanoparticles is suppressed. This microstructural variation affects the optical properties of the nanoparticle layers. The transmittance and reflectance of the Cu nanoparticle layers increase with increasing spin speed, which results from the trade-off between the exposed substrate area and surface coverage of the Cu nanoparticles. Since the glass substrates coated with Cu nanoparticle layers are semitransparent and colored, it is anticipated that the application of a Cu nanoparticle-dielectric bilayer structure to transparent solar cells will improve the cell efficiency as well as aesthetic appearance.

In manufacturing of solution-processed organic electronic devices, a spin coating method is frequently used, but which has a big problem. Solvent in a solution has a decisive effect such as physical and chemical damage for successive solution-based film deposition. Such a severe damage by solvent restricts for fabricating building blocks of multi-layered films from solutions. In this work, it will be shown that a proper combination of well-known solvents gives a chance to fabricate multi-layered film, also this new method was applied to make organic field effect transistor. Two types of bottom gate, bottom contact transistors were fabricated, one of which is fabricated by conventional single spin coating method, the other fabricated by double spin coating method. Compared with the electrical characteristics in a single spin coated transistor, the leakage current between source and gate electrode was decreased, ON state current was increased, and the extracted saturation mobility was multiplied more than 2.7 time for double spin coated transistors. It is suggested that the multiple coated gate dielectric structure is more desirable for high performance organic ferroelectric field effect transistors.

Monolayer thick fluorocarbon films were characterized by the contact angle measurements. The contact angles of three different liquids, water, formamide and diiodomethane were measured on spun coated, vapor phased deposited films and Teflon surface. The highest contact angle over $130^{\circ}$was observed on fluorocarbon films deposited on Al substrates while the lowest angles below $70^{\circ}$deposited on oxide. The surface energies were calculated based on Lewis acid /base theory. The surface energies of Teflon and spin coated FC films were calculated to have 18 and 8.4 dynes /cm, respectively. Higher energies of 31 to .35 dynes /cm were calculated on vapor phase deposited films on silicon and oxide. However vapor phase deposited films on aluminum only showed a large Lewis base energy term. It might be explained by the surface roughness and heterogeneity as observed by dynamic contact angles and AFM measurements.

Polyimide (PI) multilayer thin films were prepared by spin-coating from a poly(amic acid) (PAA) and poly(amic acid) ammonium salt (PAAS). PI was prepared from pyromellitic dianhydride (PMDA) and 4,4'-oxydianiline (ODA) PAA. Different compositions of PAAS were prepared by incorporating triethylamine (TEA) into PMDA-ODA PAA in dimethylacetamide. PI multilayer thin films were spin-coated from PMDA-ODA PAA and PAAS. The PAAS comprising cationic and anionic moieties were spherical with a particle size of $20{\sim}40\;nm$. Some particles showed layers with ammonium salts, despite poor ordering. Too much salt obstructed the interaction between the polymer chains and caused phase separation. A small amount of salt did not affect the interactions of the interlayer structure but did interrupt the stacking between chains. Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) showed that the average decomposition temperature of the thin films was $611^{\circ}C$. All the films showed almost single-step, thermal decomposition behavior. The nanostructure of the multilayer thin films was confirmed by X -ray reflectivity (XRR). The LF 43 film, which was prepared with a 4:3 molar ratio of PMDA and ODA, was comprised of uniformly spherical PAAS particles that influenced the nanostructure of the interlayer by increasing the interaction forces. This result was supported by the atomic force microscopy (AFM) data. It was concluded that the relationship between the uniformity of the PAAS particle shapes and the interaction between the layers affected the optical and thermal properties of PI layered films.

The high permittivity are applied to DRAM and FRAM. (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$ (EST) thin films were prepared by Sol-Gel method. BST solution was made and spin-coated on $Pt/SiO_2/Si$ substrate at 4000 [rpm] for 10 seconds in a time coating. Coated specimens were dried at $90[^{\circ}C]$ for 5 minutes. Coating process was repeated from 3 times to 5 times and then sintered at $750[^{\circ}C]$ for 30 minutes. Each specimen was analyzed structure and electrical characteristics. Thickness of BST ceramics thin films are about 2600-2800[$\AA$] in 3 times. Dielectric constant of thin films was little decreased at 1[KHz]~1[MHz]. Dielectric constant and loss to frequency were 250 and 0.02 in BST3. The property of leakage current was stable When the applied voltage was 0~3[V] Leakage current was $10^{9}\sim10^{11}$[A] at 0~3[V].

PZT(80/0) powder was prepared by a sol-gel method and PZT thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method on the alumina substrates. The coating and drying procedure was repeated 4 times. And then the PZT(20/80) precusor solution was spin-coated on the PZT thick films. A concentration of a coating solution was 0.5mol/L and the number of coating was varied from 0 to 6. The porosity decreased and the grain size increased with increasing the number of coatings. The thickness of the PZT-6(6: number of coatings) films was about $60{\mu}m$. The relative dielectric constant increased and the dielectric loss decreased with increasing the number of PZT(20/80) sol coatings. The relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the PZT-6 thick film were 275 and 3.5%, respectively. The remanent polarization, coercive field and breakdown strength of the PZT-6 film were $19.8{\mu}C/cm^2$, 13.7kV/cm and 130kV/cm, respectively.

Along with the fast development of electronics, the demands of portable electronics and wireless sensors are growing rapidly. The need for self-powering materials capable of powering the electrical devices attached to them is increasing, The piezoelectric effect of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) can be used for this purpose. PVDF has a special crystal structure consisting of a ${\beta}$-phase that can produce piezoelectricity. In this paper, multilayer PVDF films were fabricated to increase the ${\beta}$-phase content. A solution of 10% concentration N;N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) in PVDF (PVDF/DMAc) was used to fabricate the films via spin coating technique with the following optimum process parameters: a spin rate of 850 rpm, spin time of 60 s, drying temperature of $60^{\circ}C$, and drying time of 30 min, Compared with single-layer PVDF films, the multilayer films exhibited higher ${\beta}$-phase content. The ${\beta}$-phase content of the films increased gradually with increasing number of layers until 4, Maximum ratio of ${\beta}$-phase content was 7.72.
