Transparent BNO thin films were grown on Al-doped ZnO (AZO)/Ag/AZO/polyethersulfon (PES) (abbreviated as AAAP) transparent electrodes at a low temperature by the NCD technique. The BNO films grown on the crystallized AZO/Ag/AZO (AAA) electrodes exhibit an amorphous phase with a root mean square (rms) roughness of approximately 2 nm in the range of deposition temperature. The capacitors (Pt/BNO/AAAP) with BNO films grown at $100^{\circ}C$ show a dielectric constant of 24 and dissipation factor of 8% at 100 kHz, a leakage current density of about $8{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 1.0V. The optical transmittances of the BNO/AAAP exhibited above 80% at wavelength of 550nm at all of deposition temperature. The mechanical stability of the BNO/AAA as well as AAA electrode with the PES substrates through the bending was ensured for flexible electronic device applications. The transparent BNO capacitors grown on AAAP are powerful candidate for integration with the transparent solar cells.

전해콘텐서용 알루미늄박을 ammonium adipate 용액을 이용하여 $65^{\circ}C$에서 10분간 100V 및 140V로 각각 양극 산화시켜 산화 알루미늄 유전체를 만들었다. 유전층의 두께, 화학양론적 관계, 결정구조 등을 RBS 및 TEM을 이용하여 분석하였고, 알루미늄박의 에칭시 황산 첨가로 인한 표면적의 변화는 임피던스 분석법으로 조사 하였다. 생성된 유전피막은 100V 및 140V의 전압을 사용했을 경우 각각 약 130nm 및 190nm 두께의 비정질로 나타났으며 피막의 알루미늄과 산소원소의 화학양자론적 비는 약 2:3의 비율로 존재했다. 또한 유전피막은 전자빔은 조사에 의해 쉽게 $${\gamma}$-Al_2$$O_3$ 형태의 결정질로 변태 되었다. 염산 에칭욕에 황산 첨가시 나타나는 알루미늄박의 표면변화는 임피던스 분석결과와 정전 용략의 변화가 일치하는 경향을 나타냈다.

$Y_2O_3$-based metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure on p-Si(100) has been studied. Films were prepared by UHV reactive ionized cluster beam deposition (r-ICBD) system. The base pressure of the system was about $1 \times 10^{-9}$ -9/ Torr and the process pressure $2 \times 10^{-5}$ Torr in oxygen ambience. Glancing X-ray diffraction(GXRD) and in-situ reflection high energy electron diffracton(RHEED) analyses were performed to investigate the crystallinity of the films. The results show phase change from amorphous state to crystalline one with increasingqr acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. It is also found that the phase transformation from $Y_2O_3$(111)//Si(100) to $Y_2O_3$(110)//Si(100) in growing directions takes place between $500^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. Especially as acceleration voltage is increased, preferentially oriented crystallinity was increased. Finally under the condition of above substrate temperature $700^{\circ}C$ and acceleration voltage 5kV, the $Y_2O_3$films are found to be grown epitaxially in direction of $Y_2O_3$(1l0)//Si(100) by observation of transmission electron microscope(TEM). Capacitance-voltage and current-voltage measurements were conducted to characterize Al/$Y_2O_3$/Si MIS structure with varying acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. Deposited $Y_2O_3$ films of thickness of nearly 300$\AA$ show that the breakdown field increases to 7~8MV /cm at the same conditon of epitaxial growing. These results also coincide with XPS spectra which indicate better stoichiometric characteristic in the condition of better crystalline one. After oxidation the breakdown field increases to 13MV /cm because the MIS structure contains interface silicon oxide of about 30$\AA$. In this case the dielectric constant of only $Y_2O_3$ layer is found to be $\in$15.6. These results have demonstrated the potential of using yttrium oxide for future VLSI/ULSI gate insulator applications.

Over the past several years, transparent conducting oxides have been extensively studied in order to replace indium tin oxide (ITO). Here we report on fluorine doped zinc tin oxide (FZTO) films deposited on glass substrates by radio-frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering using a 30 wt% ZnO with 70 wt% SnO2 ceramic targets. The F-doping was carried out by introducing a mixed gas of pure Ar, CF4, and O2 forming gas into the sputtering chamber while sputtering ZTO target. Annealing temperature affects the structural, electrical and optical properties of FZTO thin films. All the as-deposited FZTO films grown at room temperature are found to be amorphous because of the immiscibility of SnO2 and ZnO. Even after the as-deposited FZTO films were annealed from $300{\sim}500^{\circ}C$, there were no significant changes. However, when the sample is annealed temperature up to $600^{\circ}C$, two distinct diffraction peaks appear in XRD spectra at $2{\Theta}=34.0^{\circ}$ and $52.02^{\circ}$, respectively, which correspond to the (101) and (211) planes of rutile phase SnO2. FZTO thin film annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ resulted in decrease of resistivity $5.47{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$, carrier concentration ~1019 cm-3, mobility~20 cm2 V-1s-1 and increase of optical band gap from 3.41 to 3.60 eV with increasing the annealing temperatures and well explained by Burstein-Moss effect. Change of work function with the annealing temperature was obtained by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy. The increase of annealing temperature leads to increase of work function from ${\phi}=3.80eV$ (as-deposited FZTO) to ${\phi}=4.10eV$ ($600^{\circ}C$ annealed FZTO) which are quite smaller than 4.62 eV for Al-ZnO and 4.74 eV for SnO2. Through X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, incorporation of F atoms was found at around the binding energy of 684.28 eV in the as-deposited and annealed FZTO up to 400oC, but can't be observed in the annealed FZTO at 500oC. This result indicates that F atoms in FZTO films are loosely bound or probably located in the interstitial sites instead of substitutional sites and thus easily diffused into the vacuum from the films by thermal annealing. The optical transmittance of FZTO films was higher than 80% in all specimens and 2-3% higher than ZTO films. FZTO is a possible potential transparent conducting oxide (TCO) alternative for application in optoelectronics.

Recently, oxide semi-conductor materials have been investigated as promising candidates replacing a-Si:H and poly-Si semiconductor because they have some advantages of a room-temperature process, low-cost, high performance and various applications in flexible and transparent electronics. Particularly, amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (a-IGZO) is an interesting semiconductor material for use in flexible thin film transistor (TFT) fabrication due to the high carrier mobility and low deposition temperatures. In this work, we demonstrated improvement of flexibility in IGZO TFTs, which were fabricated on polyimide (PI) substrate. At first, a thin poly-4vinyl phenol (PVP) layer was spin coated on PI substrate for making a smooth surface up to 0.3 nm, which was required to form high quality active layer. Then, Ni gate electrode of 100 nm was deposited on the bare PVP layer by e-beam evaporator using a shadow mask. The PVP and $Al_2O_3$ layers with different thicknesses were used for organic/inorganic multi gate dielectric, which were formed by spin coater and atomic layer deposition (ALD), respectively, at $200^{\circ}C$. 70 nm IGZO semiconductor layer and 70 nm Al source/drain electrodes were respectively deposited by RF magnetron sputter and thermal evaporator using shadow masks. Then, IGZO layer was annealed on a hotplate at $200^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Standard electrical characteristics of transistors were measured by a semiconductor parameter analyzer at room temperature in the dark and performance of devices then was also evaluated under static and dynamic mechanical deformation. The IGZO TFTs incorporating hybrid gate dielectrics showed a high flexibility compared to the device with single structural gate dielectrics. The effects of mechanical deformation on the TFT characteristics will be discussed in detail.

최근 새로운 형태의 디스플레이에 관한 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이들 중 특히 투명 산화물 반도체는 기존의 실리콘 기반의 반도체에 비해 가시광 영역에서 높은 투과도를 보이며, 또한 기존의 비정질 실리콘 소자에 비해서 10 cm2/Vs이상의 높은 전하 이동도 값을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 투명 산화물 반도체 소재 중 InGaZnO4를 사용하여 펄스 레이저 방법으로 Al2O3 (0001)기판 위에 비정질 상태인 a-InGaZnO4 박막을 성장 시켰다. 박막의 증착 온도를 변화(RT, $50^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$, $550^{\circ}C$)시켜 성장된 박막의 구조적, 화학적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 증착 온도가 $450{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 박막의 상태가 비정질(amorphous)에서 polycrystalline으로 성장되는 것을 X-Ray Diffraction과 Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscope를 이용하여 확인하였고 이는 InGaZnO4 박막의 결정화 온도가 $450^{\circ}C$ 이상임을 알 수 있었다. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy를 통해서 target 물질과 성장된 박막의 조성 및 화학적 상태를 고찰한 결과, 박막의 결정성 변화가 화학적 상태 변화와는 무관하다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 온도 의존 비저항 측정을 통해 박막이 반도체 성향을 가지는 것을 확인 하였다. 또한 Hall 측정 결과 증착 온도가 올라 갈수록 전하 밀도는 증가 하지만, 전하 이동도는 다결정 박막($550^{\circ}C$)에서 급격히 감소하고, 이로 인해 비저항 값이 크게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 다결정 박막 내 존재하는 grain boundary들이 이동도 값에 영향을 준다는 것으로 추측할 수 있다. Ultra violet-Visible-Near Infrared 측정을 통해 가시광 영역에서 80%이상의 투과율을 나타내며 증착 온도가 증가함에 따라 에너지 밴드갭(Eg)이 커지는 것을 확인 할 수 있는데 이는 Hall 측정 결과에서 확인한 전하 밀도의 증가로 인해 에너지 밴드갭이 커지는 Burstein-Moss 효과로 설명할 수 있다.

Recently, a new $Y_2O_3$ coating deposited using the EB-PVD method has been developed for erosion resistant applications in fluorocarbon plasma environments. In this study, surface crack formation in the $Y_2O_3$ coating has been analyzed in terms of residual stress and elastic modulus. The coating, deposited on silicon substrate at temperatures higher than $600^{\circ}C$, showed itself to be sound, without surface cracks. When the residual stress of the coating was measured using the Stoney formula, it was found to be considerably lower than the value calculated using the elastic modulus and thermal expansion coefficient of bulk $Y_2O_3$. In addition, amorphous $SiO_2$ and crystalline $Al_2O_3$ coatings were similarly prepared and their residual stresses were compared to the calculated values. From nano-indentation measurement, the elastic modulus of the $Y_2O_3$ coating in the direction parallel to the coating surface was found to be lower than that in the normal direction. The lower modulus in the parallel direction was confirmed independently using the load-deflection curves of a micro-cantilever made of $Y_2O_3$ coating and from the average residual stress-temperature curve of the coated sample. The elastic modulus in these experiments was around 33 ~ 35 GPa, which is much lower than that of a sintered bulk sample. Thus, this low elastic modulus, which may come from the columnar feather-like structure of the coating, contributed to decreasing the average residual tensile stress. Finally, in terms of toughness and thermal cycling stability, the implications of the lowered elastic modulus are discussed.

복합타게트 방식의 고주파 2극 마그네트론 스퍼터링 장치를 이용하여 Fe-Hf-C계 극미세 결정 연자성 박막을 제조하여 박막조성, 열처리 조건 및 기판과 그 하지층이 자기적 성질에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Fe-Hf-C계 초미세 결정 연자성 박막은 Hf 8-10at.%, C 14-18at.%의 조성범위에 서 비정질과 결정질의 경계에 가까운 조성일수록 연자성이 향상되었으며 포화자속밀도 16 kG, 1 MHz 에서의 실효투자율 4000 이상의 연자성을 나타내고 $600^{\circ}C$ 까지도 투자율 3000정도의 열적안정 성을 나타내었다. 기판 및 하지층에 따른 연자성 특성은 미세구조의 변화 보다는 기판/자성막 및 하지층/자성막간의 상호확산에 의해 주로 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났다.

This research addresses the improvement of tribo-systems, specifically regarding the reduction of friction and wear through tribo-coupling between tetrahedral amorphous carbon (ta-C) with different types of counterpart materials, namely bearing steel (SUJ2), tungsten carbide (WC), stainless steel (SUS304), and alumina ($Al_2O_3$). A second variable in this project is the utilization of different values of duct bias voltage in the deposition of the ta-C coating - 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20 V. The results of this research are expected to determine the optimum duct bias and best counter materials associated with ta-C to produce the lowest friction and wear. Results obtained reveal that the tribo-couple between the ta-C coating and SUJ2 balls produces the lowest friction coefficient and wear rate. In terms of duct bias changes, deposition using 5 V produces the most optimum tribological behavior with lowest friction and wear on the tribo-system. In contrast, the tribo-couple between ta-C with a WC ball causes penetration through the coating surface layer and hence high surface delamination. This study demonstrates that the most effective ta-C coating duct bias is 5 V associated with SUJ2 counter material to produce the lowest friction and wear.
