We experimentally investigated discharge phenomena inside vacuum interrupter at 1 to 20 Torr to simulate the vacuum leakage. We used glass type of vacuum interrupter where the internal pressure and the type of gasses can be varied according to requirement. The experiment is conducted under ac applied voltage and the experimental circuit is constructed to simulate the actual circuit used in cubical type insulated switchgear. We used two types of gases such as air and SF6. The use of glass type vacuum interrupter allowed us to measure discharges occurring in vacuum interrupter optically. We measured and discussed the discharge occurring in both gases with a current transformer and ICCD camera. We also revealed that electromagnetic wave spectra emitted by the discharge have same frequency range for both gasses.

Orbiter mechanism has been applied to vacuum pump design for small oxygen generator where low vacuum of about 200 mmHg is required. Performance of the designed vacuum pump has been numerically investigated: calculated volumetric and adiabatic efficiencies were 69.7% and 83.9%, respectively for leakage clearance of $10{\mu}m$. Total efficiency of the orbiter vacuum pump was 77.5%. At the shaft speed of 1700 rpm suction displacement volume of 6.3cc provided discharge flow at the rate of 2.3 liter/min with power consumption of 10.1Watt. Torque variation of the orbiter pump was only about 20% of that of diaphragm pump.

Inorganic 물질인 SiO2 dielectric 위에 organic dielectric PVP (4-vinyphenol)를 spin coating으로 올려, inorganic/organic dielectric 형태의 double layer구조로 High-performance amorphous indiumgallium zinc oxide thin-film transistors (IGZO TFT)를 제작하여 보았다. SiO2 dielectric을 buffer layer로 80 nm, PVP는 10Wt% 400 nm로 구성하였으며, 200 nm single SiO2 dielectric과 동일한 수준의 leakage current 특성을 MIM Capacitor 구조를 통해서 확인할 수 있었다. 이 소자의 장점은 용액공정의 도입으로 공정 시간의 단축 및 원가 절감을 이룰 수 있으며, dielectric과 channel 사이의 균일한 interface의 형성으로 interface trap 개선 및 Yield 향상의 장점을 갖는다. 우리는 실험을 통해서 SiO2 buffer layer가 수직 electric field에 의한 leakage current을 제어하고, PVP dielectric은 interface를 개선하는 것을 확인하였다. Vth의 negative shift 및 slope의 향상으로 구동전압이 줄어들고, 균일한 I-V Curve 형성을 통해서 Process Yield의 향상을 확인하였다.

This study presents the microstructure-electrical property relationship of reactive-sputtered Ta$_2$O$_{5}$ MIM capacitor structure processed by annealing in a vacuum and $O_2$ ambience. A microstructural investigation showed the existence of amorphous phase in as-deposited condition and the formation of preferentially oriented-Ta$_2$O$_{5}$ in $700^{\circ}C$ annealing. On annealing under the $O_2$ atmosphere, the Ta$_2$O$_{5}$ film exhibited the trend of its composition\`s approaching to stoichiometry from off-stoichiometry, analyzed by EPMA, the leakage current decrease and the enhanced temperature-capacitance characteristic stability. In the case of low temperature vacuum-annealing treatment, the leakage current behavior was stable irrespective of applied electric field. In the high temperature-annealed film at a vacuum condition, the electrical properties was observed to deteriorate. The results state that in Ta$_2$O$_{5}$ film annealed at $O_2$ atmosphere, gives rise to improvement of electrical characteristics in the capacitor were improved by reducing oxygen-vacancy and dandling Ta-O bond.-O bond.

The electrical characteristics of the capacitor dielectric films of amorphous silicon-nit-ride-oxide(ANO) structures are compared with the capacitor dielectric films of oxide-nitride-oxide (ONO) structrues The electrical characteristics of ONO and ANO films were evaluated by high frequency(1 MHz) C-V high frequency C-V after constant voltage stree I-V TDDB and refresh time measurements. ANO films shows good electrical characteristics such as higher total charge to breakdown storage capacitance and longer refresh time than ONO films. Also it makes little difference that leakage current and flat band voltage shyift(ΔVfb)of ANO ana ONO films.

t-Stress and junction leakage current characteristics of CVD-tungsten have been investigated. Stressversus continuous annealing temperature plot. shows hysteresis curve where the stress level of the cooling curveis higher than that of the heating curve. It is found that the thermal and intrinsic stress of tungsten film depositedby SiH4 reduction is higher than that by Hz reduction.The tungsten film deposited by SiHl reduction is in the tensile stress state below 700"Cnd the stress ofthe film decreses with increasing annealing temperature. The stress state changes into compressive stress atabout 700"Cnd the compressive stress increases rapidly with increasing temperature.Leakage current of the n+/p diode increases rapidly especially in the range of 400-450$^{\circ}$C with increasingdeposition temperature of the CVD-W by SiH4 reduction, which is due to the Si consumption by W encroachment.On the other hand leakage current of the n+/p diode slightly increases with increasing SiH4/WF6 ratio.h increasing SiH4/WF6 ratio.

The adhesive-tape of a liquid leak film sensor including the alarm system is developed. The sensing film is composed of three layers such as base film layer, conductive line layer, and protection film layer. The thickness of film is 300~500 um, the width is 3.55 cm, and the unit length is 200 m. On the conductive line layer, three conducting lines and one resistive line are formulated by the electronic printing method with a conducting ink of silver-nano size. When a liquid leaks for the electricity to be conducted between the conductive line and the resistive line, the position of leakage is monitored by measuring the voltage varied according to the change of resistance between two lines. The error range of sensing position of 200 m film sensor is ${\pm}1m$.
