  • A bilayer is used as an anode electrode for organic electroluminescent devices. The bilayer consist of an ultrathjn ZnO layer adjacent to an hole-transporting layer and an Indium tin oxide(ITO) outerlayer. We tried to bring low the barrier between the devices as deposited ZnO films on ITO substrates. We fabricated the organic EL structure consisted of Al as cathode, $Al_{2}O_{3}$ as electro transport layer, Alq3 as luminously layer, triphenyl diamine(TPD) as hole transport layer and ZnO(l nm )/ITO(l50 nm) as anode. The result of this experiment was not good compared with the case of using ITO, Nevertheless, at this structure we obtained the lowest turn-on voltage as the value of 19 V and the good brightness (6200 $cd/m^{2}$) of the emission light from the devices. Then the quantum efficiency was to be 1.0%.

  • The electronic structure at organic-organic interface gives essential information on device performance such as charge transport and mobility. Especially, the molecular orientation of organic material can affect the electronic structure at interface and ultimately the device performance in organic photovoltaics. The molecular orientation is examined by the change in ionization potential (IP) for metal phthalocyanines (MPc, M=Zn, Cu)/fullerene ($C_{60}$) interfaces on ITO by adding the CuI templating layer through ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy measurement. On CuPc/$C_{60}$ bilayer, the addition of CuI templating layer represents the noticeable change in IP, while it hardly affects the electronic structure of ZnPc/$C_{60}$ bilayer. The CuPc molecules on CuI represent relatively lying down orientation with intermolecular ${\pi}-{\pi}$ overlap being aligned in vertical direction. Consequently, in organic photovoltaics consisting of CuPc and $C_{60}$ as donor and acceptor, respectively, the carrier transport along the direction is enhanced by the insertion of CuI templaing layer. In addition, optical absorption in CuPc molecules is increased due to aligned transition matrix elements. Overall the lying down orientation of CuPc on CuI will improve photovoltaic efficiency.

  • SAW properties of SiNx/ZnO bilayer thin film structure were analyzed. ZnO thin films were deposited by rf magnetron sputter using O2 gas as an oxidizer. Structure of ZnO thin films was affected by Ar/O2 ratio. At the gas ratio of Ar/O2=67/33, the standard deviation of X-ray rocking curve of (002) preferred ZnO thin film was 2.17 degree. This value is sufficient to use ZnO thin films as an acoustic element. SAW velocity of glass/SiNx(7000Å)/Al/ZnO(5μm) structure was max. 2.2% faster than that of ZnO/glass.

  • The intercalated compounds of alkylsulfonate into hydrated and dehydrated zinc were synthesized. From the XRD, FT-IR, TGA, elemental analysis data, and the molecular size, the orientation of the intercalated alkylsulfonates was determined. For the hydrated compounds, alkylsulfonates were intercalated into hexaqua zinc layer with the bilayer structure of $32.9^{\circ}$ angle of inclination. For the dehydrated compounds, alkylsulfonates were directly bonded to zinc ion with the bilayer structure of $51.4^{\circ}$ angle of inclination.

  • We report the effect of Ca doping in $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}$ (YBCO) thin films grown on the Rolling- Assisted, Biaxially Textured Substrates (RABiTS) with the architecture of $CeO_2/YSZ/CeO_2/Ni$. Critical currents of bilayer and trilayer structures of $YBCO/Y_{0.7}Ca_{0.3}Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-\delta}$/(YCaBCO) as well as undoped YBCO for comparison have been measured in a wide range of temperatures and fields. For $6-8^{\circ}$ grain boundaries, 30% Ca-doping in bilayer structure enhances $J_c$ as high as 35%. The enhancement is larger at low temperatures and at magnetic fields. On the other hand, 30% Ca-doping in trilayer structure reduces $J_c$ as high as 60%. Combined with slightly lower $T_c$, this indicates that Ca is overdoped in this structure and degrades GBs.

  • $BiFeO_3/Pb(Zr_{0.52}Ti_{0.48})O_3$(BFO/PZT) multilayer thin films have been prepared on a Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100) substrate by chemical solution deposition. BFO single layer, BFO/PZT bilayer and multilayer thin films were studied for comparison. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the crystal structure of all films was multi-orientated perovskite phase without amorphous and impurity phase. The leakage current density at 500 kV/cm was reduced by approximately four and five orders of magnitude by bilayer and multilayer structure films, compared with BFO single layer film. The low leakage current density leads to saturated P-E hysteresis loops of bilayer and multilayer films. In BFO/PZT multlayer film, saturated remanent polarization of $44.3{\mu}C/cm^2$ was obtained at room temperature at 1 kHz with the coercive field($2E_c$) of 681.4 kV/cm.

  • Recently, the electromagnetically-induced transparency (EIT)-like effect in metamaterials has attracted enormous interest. Metamaterial analogs of EIT enable promising applications in slow-light devices, low-loss metamaterial, quantum optics, and novel sensors. In this work, we experimentally and numerically studied a bilayer metamaterial for controllable EIT-like spectral response at microwave frequencies. Bilayer metamaterial consists of two snake-shape resonators (SSRs) with one and two bars. The transmission spectra were measured in a frequency range of 4 - 8 GHz in an anechoic chamber at normal incidence. It is found that two SSRs in the metamaterial are activated in bright modes, and the coupling between two bright modes leads to the EIT-like effect, which results in the enhanced transmission at 5.61 GHz. Furthermore, we confirm that the EIT-like feature could be controlled by adjusting the geometric parameters of metamaterial structure. Our work provides a way to tunable EIT-like effect and various potential applications including filters, sensors, and other microwave devices.

  • The properties of $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer formed by a rapid thermal anneal ing is investigated when thin $SiO_2$ film exists at the Ti-Si interface. The competitive reaction for the $TiN/TiSi_2$ bilayer occurs above $600^{\circ}C$. The thickness of the $TiSi_2$ layer decreases with increasing $SiO_2$ film thickness while the TiN layer increases at the competitive reaction. The composition of TiN layer is changed to the $TiN_xO_y$ film due to the thin $SiO_2$ layer at the Ti-Si interface while the structure of the TiN and $TiSi_2$ layers was not changed.

  • We fabricated ordered micro/nano patterns induced by controlled dewetting on the topographically patterned PS/P4VP bilayer thin film. The method is based on utilizing microimprinting lithography to induce a topographically heterogeneous bilayer film that allows the controlled dewetting upon subsequent thermal annealing. The dewetting that was initiated strictly at the boundary of the thicker and thinner regions was guided by the presence of the topographic structure. The dewetting front velocity of the microdomains in the confined regions was linearly proportional to the measurement time, which enabled us to control the size of the dewet domain with annealing time. In particular, the submicron sized dot arrays between lines were generated with ease when the dewetting was confined into geometry with a few microns in size. The kinetically driven, non-lithographical pattern structures accompanied the pattern reduction to 400%. The pattern arrays on a transparent glass substrate were especially useful for non-circular microlens arrays where the focal length of the lens was easily tunable by controlling the thermal annealing.
