  • 초고집적 반도체 회로에서 Cu를 배선으로 쓰이기 위한 Cu 금속과 Si 기판사이의 확산방지막으로써 Zr(Si)N 박막을 연구하였다. Zr(Si)N 박막증착은 DC magnetron sputter으로 $Ar/N_2$의 혼합 gas를 사용한 reactive sputtering 방법을 이용하였다. 상온에서 ZrN 박막 증착시 Ar gas와 NE gas 비율이 48 : 2일 때 가장 낮은 비저항값을 가졌으며, 증착시 기판의 온도의 증가에 따라서 비저항값이 낮아졌다. 비저항값이 감소된 ZrN 박막일수록 (002)면의 방향성을 갖는 결정이 성장되었다. ZrN 박막의 Cu 확산방지 특성은 ZrN 박막에 Si을 첨가함으로써 개선될 수 있으며 지나치게 첨가될 경우에는 오히려 확산방지 특성이 감소되었다. 접착력 특성에서는 ZrN에 Si의 함유량이 증가함에 파라 개선되었다. 증착막의 특성은 XRD, 광학 현미경, scretch tester 그리고 $\alpha$-step 등을 사용하여 분석하였다.

  • We have investigated the physical and diffusion barrier property of Ti-Si-N film for Cu metallization. The ternary compound was deposited by using reactive rf magnetron sputtering of a TiSi$_2$target in an Ar/$N_2$gas mixture. Resistivities of the films were in range of 358$\mu$$\Omega$-cm, to 307941$\mu$$\Omega$-cm, and tended to increase with increasing the $N_2$/Ar flow rate ratio. The crystallization of the Ti-Si-N compound started to occur at 100$0^{\circ}C$ with the phases of TiN and Si$_3$N$_4$identified by using XRD(X-ray Diffractometer). The degree of the crystallization was influenced by the $N_2$/Ar flow ratio. The diffusion barrier property of Ti-Si-N film for Cu metallization was determined by AES, XRD and etch pit by secco etching, revealing the failure temperature of 90$0^{\circ}C$ in 43~45at% of nitrogen content. In addition, the very thin compound (10nm) with 43~45at% nitrogen content remained stable up to $700^{\circ}C$. Furthermore, thermal treatment in vacuum at $600^{\circ}C$ improved the barrier property of the Ti-Si-N film deposited at the $N_2$(Ar+$N_2$) ratio of 0.05. The addition of Ti interlayer between Ti-Si-N films caused the drastic decrease of the resistivity with slight degradation of diffusion barrier properties of the compound.

  • We investigated the effects of operating variables, such as electrical. reactor and gas parameters on toluene removal and discharge property in the dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) process. The toluene removal was initiated with the energy transfer to the reactor by loading of voltages higher than the discharge onset value. The energy transfer and toluene removal increased with the applied voltage. Higher removal rate was observed with smooth surface electrode despite of lower energy transfer compared with the coarse electrode, because more uniform discharge can be obtained on smooth surface state. The decrease of dielectric material thickness enhanced the removal efficiency by increasing the discharge potential. The toluene removal efficiency decreased with the increase of the inlet concentration. The increase of gas retention time enhanced the removal efficiency by the increase of energy density. The oxygen and humidity contents seem to exert significant influences on the toluene removal by dominating the generation of electrons, ions, and radicals which are key factors in the removal mechanism.

  • Radioactive wastes arising from a wide range of human activities are in many different physical and chemical forms, contaminated with varying radioactivity. Their common feature is the potential hazard associated with their radioactivity and the need to manage them in such a way as to protect the human environment. The geological disposal is regarded as the most reasonable and effective way to safely disposal high-level radioactive wastes in the world. The conceptual model of geological disposal in China is based on a multi-barrier system that combines an isolating geological environment with an engineered barrier system. The buffer is one of the main engineered barriers for HLW repository. The buffer material is expected to maintain its low water permeability, self-sealing property, radio nuclides adsorption and retardation property, thermal conductivity, chemical buffering property, overpack supporting property, stress buffering property over a long period of time. Benotite is selected as the main content of buffer material that can satisfy above. GMZ deposit is selected as the candidate supplier for Chinese buffer material of High Level Radioactive waste repository. This paper presents geological features of GMZ deposit and basic property of GMZ Na bentonite. GMZ bentonite deposit is a super large scale deposits with high content of Montmorillonite (about $75\%$) and GMZ-l, which is Na-bentonite produced from GMZ deposit is selected as reference material for Chinese buffer material study.

  • The median barrier is one of the roadside hardware to prevent severe human and property damage from highway traffic accidents. The foreign standard of concrete median barrier was introduced and implemented without modification fitting to domestic vehicle and highway condition. In a car accident, median barrier doesn't protect vehicle effectively, especially for heavy vehicle such as bus and heavy truck. The purpose of this study is to develop the optimal performance design of concrete median barrier using the design of experiment with crash simulation analysis which is done by Pam-Crash that is one of the commercial crash simulation software. As a result of this study, an optimal design of concrete median barrier is obtained considering von Mises stress, volume and COG acceleration of truck.

  • A thin metal layer of molybdenum is placed between the conventional barrier layer and the stainless steel substrate for investigating the diffusion property of iron (Fe) atoms. In this study, the protection probability was confirmed by measuring the concentration of out-diffused Fe using a SIMS depth profile. The Fe concentration of chromium (Cr) barrier layer with 10 nm molybdenum (Mo) layer is 5 times lower than that of Cr barrier without the thin Mo layer. The insertion of a thin Mo metal layer between the barrier layer and the stainless steel substrate effectively protects the out-diffusion of Fe atoms.

  • Recently, scaling down of ULSI (Ultra Large Scale Integration) circuit of CMOS (Complementary Meta Oxide Semiconductor) based electronic devices, the electronic devices, become much faster and smaller size that are promising property of semiconductor market. However, very narrow interconnect line width has some disadvantages. Deposition of conformal and thin barrier is not easy. And metallization process needs deposition of diffusion barrier and glue layer for EP/ELP deposition. Thus, there is not enough space for copper filling process. In order to get over these negative effects, simple process of copper metallization is important. In this study, Cu-V alloy layer was deposited using of DC/RF magnetron sputter deposition system. Cu-V alloy film was deposited on the plane SiO2/Si bi-layer substrate with smooth surface. Cu-V film's thickness was about 50 nm. Cu-V alloy film deposited at $150^{\circ}C$. XRD, AFM, Hall measurement system, and AES were used to analyze this work. For the barrier formation, annealing temperature was 300, 400, $500^{\circ}C$ (1 hour). Barrier thermal stability was tested by I-V(leakage current) and XRD analysis after 300, 500, $700^{\circ}C$ (12 hour) annealing. With this research, over $500^{\circ}C$ annealed barrier has large leakage current. However vanadium-based diffusion barrier annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ has good thermal stability. Therefore thermal stability of vanadium-based diffusion barrier is desirable for copper interconnection.

  • Cu와 Si사이의 확산방지막으로 1000$\AA$ 두께의 TiN의 특성에 대하여 면저항 측정, 식각패임자국 관찰, X선 회절, AES, TEM 등을 이용하여 조사하였다. TiN 확산방지막은 $550^{\circ}C$, 1시간의 열처리 후에 Cu의 안쪽 확산으로 인해 Si(111)면을 따라 결정결함(전위)을 형성하고, 전위 주위에 Cu 실리사이드로 보이는 석출물들을 형성함으로써 파괴되었다. Al의 경우와는 달리 Si 패임자국이 형성되지 안흔 것으로부터 TiN확산방지막의 파괴는 Cu의 안쪽 확산에 의해서만 일어나는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한, Al의 경우에는 우수한 확산방지막 특성을 보여주었던 충진처리된 TiN가 Cu의 경우에는 거의 효과가 없는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이것은 Al의 경우에는 TiN의 결정립계에 존재하는 $TiO_{2}$가 Al과 반응하여 $Al_{2}O_{3}$를 형성함으로써 Al의 확산을 방해하는 화학적 효과가 매우 크지만, Cu의 경우에는 CuO 또는 $Cu_{2}O$와 같은 Cu 산화물은$TiO_{2}$에 비해서 열역학적으로 불안정하기 때문에 이러한 화학적 효과를 기대할 수 없으며, 따라서 충진처리 효과가 거의 없는 것으로 이해된다.
