In this paper, the hysteresis characteristics by bias stress in organic thin film transistors using inkjet printing were investigated. Electron trapping increased threshold voltage for positive gate bias stress and hole trapping decreased threshold voltage for negative gate bias stress. From these phenomena, highly reproducible measurement method which minimized threshold voltage shift by choosing the proper range of gate voltage was suggested. Using this measurement method, we found that electron trapping as well as hole trapping had important influence on hysteresis characteristics.

In plasma processing reactors, it is common practice to control plasma density and ion bombardment energy by manipulating excitation voltage and frequency. In this paper, a dually excited capacitively coupled rf plasma reactor is self-consistently simulated with a three moment model. Effects of phase differences between primary and secondary voltage waves, simultaneously modulated at various combinations of commensurate frequencies, on plasma properties are investigated. The simulation results show that plasma potential and density as well as primary self-dc bias are nearly unaffected by the phase lag between the primary and the secondary voltage waves. The results also show that, with the secondary frequency substantially lower than the primary frequency, secondary self·do bias remains constant regardless of the phase lag. As the secondary frequency approaches to the primary frequency, however, the secondary self-dc bias becomes greatly altered by the phase lag, and so does the ion bombardment energy at the secondary electrode. These results demonstrate that ion bombardment energy can be more carefully controlled through plasma simulation.

상변화형 광디스크의 보호막으로 사용되는 $ZnS-SiO_2$ 유전체막을 RF magnetron 스퍼트링방법에 의하여 제조하는 경우에 기판 바이어스전압의 영향을 조사하기 위하여, 알곤가스 분위기에서 ZnS(80mol%)-$SiO_2$(20mol%)타겟을 사용하여 Si Wafer와 Corning flass 위에 박막을 증착시켰다. 본 실험에서는 여러 실험 변수를 효과적으로 조절하면서 실험의 양을 줄이고 도시의 산포를 동시에 만족시키는 최적조건으로 타겟 RF 출력 200W, 기판 RF 출력 20W, 아르곤 압력 5mTorr과 증착시간 20분을 얻을 수 있었으며, 신뢰구간 95%에서 확인실험을 수행하였다. 증착된 박막의 열적 저항성을 측정하기 위해 $300^{\circ}C$와 $600^{\circ}C$에서 열처리시험을 수행하였고, Spectroscopic Ellipsometry 측정을 통한 광학적 데이터를 바탕으로 Bruggeman EMA(Effective Medium Approximation)방법을 이용하여 기공(void)분률을 측정하였다. 본 연구결과에 의하면 특성치 굴절률에 대하여 기판 바이어스인자와 증착시간 사이에는 서로 교호작용이 강하게 존재함을 확인할 수 있었다. TEM분석과 XRD 분석 결과에 의하면 기판 바이어스를 가한 최적조건에서 증착된 미세조직은 기존의 바이어스를 가하지 않을 조건에서 증착시킨 박막보다 미세한 구조를 가지며, 또한 과도한 바이어스전압은 결정구조의 조대화를 야기시켰다. 그리고 적절한 바이어스전압은 박막의 밀도를 증가시키며, 기공분률을 약 3.7%정도 감소시킴을 확인할 수 있었다.

In this paper we report upon an investigation into the effect of DC bias voltage on the electrical and optical properties of Gallium doped zinc oxide (GZO) film. GZO films were deposited on glass substrate without substrate temperature by RF magnetron sputtering from a ZnO target mixed with 5 wt% $Ga_2O_3$. we investigated sample properties of bias voltage change in 0 to -60 V. We were able to achieve as low as $5.89\times10^{-4}$ ${\Omega}cm$ and transmittance over 87%. without substrate temperature.

The effects of argon neutral beam (NB) energy on the amorphous carbon (a-C) films were investigated, while the a-C films were deposited by neutral particle beam assisted sputtering (NBAS) system. The energy of neutral particle beam can be controlled by reflector bias voltage directly as a unique operating parameter in this system. The deposition characteristics of the films investigated of Raman spectra, UV-visible spectroscopy, electrical conductivity, stress measurement system, and ellipsometer indicate the properties of amorphous carbon films can be manipulated by only NB energy (or reflector bias voltage) without changing any other process parameters. We report the effect of reflector bias voltage in the range from 0 to -1KV. By the increase of the reflector bias voltage, the amount of cross-linked sp2 clusters as well as the sp3 bonding in the a-C film coated by the NBAS system can be increased effectively and the composition of carbon thin films can be changed from nano-crystalline graphite phase to amorphous carbon phase.

The performance of npn SiGe HBT on thin film SOI is investigated at 32 nm technology node by applying body bias. An n-well is created underneath thin BOX to isolate the body biased SOI HBT from SOI CMOS. The results show that the HBT voltage gain and power gain can be programmed by applying body bias to the n-well. This HBT can be used in variable gain amplifiers that are widely used in the receiver chain of RF systems. The HBT is compatible with 32 nm FDSOI technology having 10 nm film thickness and 30 nm BOX thickness. As the breakdown voltage increases by applying the body bias, the SOI HBT with 3 V $V_{CE}$ has very high $f_tBV_{CEO}$ product (839 GHzV). The self heating performance of the proposed SOI HBT is studied. The high voltage gain and power gain (60 dB) of this HBT will be useful in designing analog/RF systems which cannot be achieved using 32 nm SOI CMOS (usually voltage gain is in the range of 10-20 dB).

The performance of ac plasma display panels (PDP) is influenced strongly by the surface glow discharge characteristics on the MgO thin films. This paper deals with the surface slew discharge characteristics and some physical properties of MgO thin films prepared by reactive RF planar unbalanced magnetron sputtering in connection with ac PDP. The samples prepared with the do bias voltage of -10V showed lower discharge voltage and lower erosion rate by ion bombardment than those samples prepared by conventional magnetron sputtering or E-beam evaporation. The main factor that improves the discharge characteristics by bias voltage is considered to be due to the morphology changes or crystal structure of the MgO thin film by ion bombardment during deposition process.

Silver is known to have such characteristics as low shear strength, good transfer-film forming tendency, and good corrosion resistance. Silver thin films have been prepared by ion plating of physical vapour deposition (PVD) using both argon gas pressure and bias voltage of processing condition. After the silver films were prepared, the properties in them were examined by gas pressure and bias voltage of substrate. Their morphology and crystal orientation were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffractor. The properties of film were, also, studied to relate with morphology, X-ray diffraction pattern, and friction coefficient at vacuum ambient. The friction coefficient was stabilized remarkably on deposited films with increasing argon pressure for deposition. Also, the effect of increasing of the bias voltage for deposition resulted in lower friction coefficient and stability in $1.7$\times$10^{-4}$ torr. On the contrary, behavior of friction coefficient was stabilized on deposited films with decreasing the bias voltage in $1.7$\times$10^{-5}$ torr for deposition.
