In semiconductor manufacturing, the circuit integrity of packaged BGA devices is tested by measuring electrical resistance using test sockets. Test sockets have been reported to often fail earlier than the expected life-time due to high contact resistance. This has been attributed to the formation of Sn oxide films on the Au coating layer of the probe pins loaded on the socket. Similar to contact failure, and known as "fretting", this process widely occurs between two conductive surfaces due to the continual rupture and accumulation of oxide films. However, the failure mechanism at the probe pin differs from fretting. In this study, the microstructural processes and formation mechanisms of Sn oxide films developed on the probe pin surface were investigated. Failure analysis was conducted mainly by FIB-FESEM observations, along with EDX, AES, and XRD analyses. Soft and fresh Sn was found to be transferred repeatedly from the solder bump to the Au surface of the probe pins; it was then instantly oxidized to SnO. The $SnO_2$ phase is a more stable natural oxide, but SnO has been proved to grow on Sn thin film at low temperature (< $150^{\circ}C$). Further oxidation to $SnO_2$ is thought to be limited to 30%. The SnO film grew layer by layer up to 571 nm after testing of 50,500 cycles (1 nm/100 cycle). This resulted in the increase of contact resistance and thus of signal delay between the probe pin and the solder bump.

Single crystals, which have complexed composition, are fabricated by solid state grain growth. However, it is hard to achieve stable properties in a single crystal due to trapped pores. Aerosol deposition (AD) is suitable for fabrication of single crystals with stable properties because this process can make a high density coating layer. Because of their unique features (nano sized grains, stress inner site), it is hard to fabricate single crystals, and so studies of grain growth behavior of AD film are essential. In this study, a $BaTiO_3$ coating layer with ${\sim}9{\mu}m$ thickness is fabricated using an aerosol deposition method on (100) and (110) cut $SrTiO_3$ single crystal substrates, which are adopted as seeds for grain growth. Each specimen is heat-treated at various conditions (900, 1,100, and $1,300^{\circ}C$ for 5 h). $BaTiO_3$ layer shows different growth behavior and X-ray diffraction depending on cutting direction of $SrTiO_3$ seed. Rectangular pillars at $SrTiO_3$ (100) and laminating thin plates at $SrTiO_3$ (110), respectively, are observed.

Perovskite solar cells have exhibited a remarkable increase in efficiency from an initial 3.8% to 26.1%, marking a significant advancement. However, challenges persist in the commercialization of perovskite solar cells due to their low stability with respect to humidity, light exposure, and temperature. Moreover, the instability of the organic charge transport layer underscores the need for exploring inorganic alternatives. In the manufacturing process of the perovskite solar cells' oxide charge transport layer, ultraviolet-ozone (UVO) treatment is commonly applied to enhance the wettability of the perovskite solution. The UVO treatment on metal oxides has proven effective in suppressing surface oxygen vacancies and removing surface organic contaminants. This study focused on the characterization of nickel oxide as the hole transport material in perovskite solar cells, specifically investigating the impact of UVO treatment on film properties. Through this analysis, changes induced by the UVO treatment were observed, and consequent alterations in the device characteristics were identified.

본 논문은 3차원 낸드 플래쉬 기억 소자에 적용을 위해 소노스(SONOS) 형태로 기억 저장 절연막을 채용하고 채널로 폴리실리콘을 사용한 박막형 트랜지스터에 대해 연구하였다. 셀의 source/drain에는 불순물을 주입 하지 않았고, 셀 양 끝단에는 선택 트랜지스터를 배치하였다. 셀의 채널과 선택 트랜지스터의 source/drain 불순물 농도 변화에 대한 평가를 진행하여 공정 최적화를 하였다. 선택 트랜지스터의 농도 증가 시 채널 전류의 상승 및 삭제특성이 개선됨을 확인 하였는데 이는 GIDL에 의한 홀 생성이 증가하였기 때문이다. 최적화된 공정 변수에 대해 삭제와 쓰기 후 문턱전압의 프로그램 윈도우는 대략 2.5V를 얻었다. 터널 산화막 공정 온도에 대한 평가 결과 온도 증가 시 swing 및 신뢰성 항목인 bake 결과가 개선됨을 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 액정의 수직배향을 달성하기 위해서 특별히 제조된 폴리스타일렌 박막에 다양한 이온빔을 조사하는 방법을 사용하였다. 일반적으로 폴리스타일렌 수지는 통상의 폴리이미드 계열의 수지에 비해서 박막코팅을 하였을 때 보다 우수한 투과율을 나타내므로, 투과형 디스플레이로 사용되는 LCD의 배향막 재료로 더 적합하다고 생각되었다. 특히 고휘도이면서 저전력 사양을 달성하여야 하는 휴대용 디스플레이에서의 응용가능성이 기대되었다. 그러나, 일반적인 러빙법에 의한 배향처리에 대해서는 액정분자의 배향성이 폴리이미드 계열의 재료에 비해서 열등하여 사용되지 못하였다. 본 연구에서는 폴리스타일렌 계열의 박막재료를 배향막으로 가공함에 있어서 새로운 이온빔 조사법에 의한 비접촉식 배향법을 사용하였으며, 배향성과 액정분자의 프리틸트각 특성에 대해서 정량적인 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 실험에서는 폴리스타일렌 수지에 이온빔의 조사시간을 15초까지 변화시키면서 액정분자의 배향성 및 프리틸트각의 특성을 측정하였다. 측정결과 스마트폰 및 휴대용 정보단말기 등의 디스플레이에 적합한 고투과율 액정표시소자의 구현이 가능하였다.

$(Ba(Zr_{0.85}Y_{0.15})O_{3-\delta})$ oxide, showing high protonic conductivity at high temperatures and good chemical stability with $CO_2$ are referred to as hydrogen separation membrane. For high efficiency of hydrogen separation ($H_2$ flux and selectivity) and low fabrication cost, ultimate thin and dense BZY-Ni layer has to be coated on a porous substrate such as $ZrO_2$. Aerosol depostion (AD) process is a novel technique to grow ceramic film with high density and nano-crystal structure at room-temperature, and may be applicable to the fabrication process of AD integration ceramic layer effectively. XRD, SEM, X-ray mapping measurements were conducted in order to analyze the characteristics of BZY-Ni membrane fabricated by AD process. it is observed that it is homogeneous distribution for BZY-Ni. The result of $H_2$ permeation rate suggests that BZY-Ni composite is higher than BZY.

PURPOSES : The objective of this study is to evaluate the applicability of the pitch, which is produced during SDA petroleum upgrading process, as a pavement paving material. In order for the purpose, the physical and chemical properties of the pitch are analyzed, and then the various plasticizers are applied in the pitch. METHODS : Two types of pitch are selected from oil refinery companies, which are owned the SDA petroleum upgrading process. Also, two types of asphalt binders, PG 64-22 and PG 58-22, are employed to compare with the pitch because these two types of asphalt binders are currently used as paving materials. For the chemical property of the pitch, the composition of SARA (Saturate, Aromatic, Resin, Asphaltene), the elementary composition, and the functional group are analyzed. For the physical property of the pitch, the basic material property tests, such as penetration test, softening point test, flash point test, ductility test, and rotational viscometer test, are performed. Also, the DSR (Dynamic Shear Rheometer) test and the BBR (Bending Beam Rheometer) test are conducted using asphalt binder specimens obtained by both short term aging (Rolling Thin Film Oven, RTFO) and long term aging (Pressure Aging Vessel, PAV) processes. The rheological property of each pitch type is evaluated as a function of temperatures and loading cycles. PG 64-22 asphalt binder is used as a control material. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS : The Pitch may not be suitable for the pavement paving material without modifications, but the pitch can be used as alternatives of modified addictive or asphalt. If low molecular component, such as saturate and aromatic components, are added in the pitch based on the development of various plasticizers, it has a strong possibility for the pitch to be used as a alternative. However, in order to verify the performance property of the pitch, further research is needed.
