AZO/Cu/AZO thin films were deposited on glass by RF magnetron sputtering. The specimens showed the preferred orientation of (0002) AZO and (111) Cu. The Cu crystal sizes increased from about 3.7 nm to about 8.5 nm with increasing Cu thickness, and from about 6.3 nm to about 9.5 nm with increasing heat treatment temperatures. The sizes of AZO crystals were almost independent of the Cu thickness, and increased slightly with heat treatment temperature. The residual stress of AZO after heat treatment also increased compressively from -4.6 GPa to -5.6 GPa with increasing heat treatment temperature. The increase in crystal size resulted from grain growth, and the increase in stress resulted from the decrease in defects that accompanied grain growth, and the thermal stress during cooling from heat treatment temperature to room temperature. From the PL spectra, the decrease in defects during heat treatment resulted in the increased intensity. The electrical resistivities of the 4 nm Cu film were 5.9×10^-4 Ω·cm and about 1.0×10^-4 Ω·cm for thicker Cu films. The resistivity decreased as the temperature of heat treatment increased. As the Cu thickness increased, an increase in carrier concentration resulted, as the fraction of AZO/Cu/AZO metal film increased. And the increase in carrier concentration with increasing heat treatment temperature might result from the diffusion of Cu ions into AZO. Transmittance decreased with increasing Cu thicknesses, and reached a maximum near the 500 nm wavelength after being heat treated at 200 ℃.

Tantalum carbo-nitride($T_aC_xN_y$) films were deposited with chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using tert-butylimido tris-diethylamido tantalum (TBTDET, $^tBu-N=Ta-(NEt_2)_3$, $Et=C_2H_5$, $^tBu=C(CH_3)_3$) between $350^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ with argon as a carrier gas. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR)spectroscopy was used to study the thermal decomposition behavior of TBTDET in the gas phase. When the temperature was increased, C-H and C-N bonding of TBTDET disappeared and the peaks of ethylene appeared above $450^{\circ}C$ in the gas phase. The growth rate and film density of $T_aC_xN_y$ film were in the range of 0.1nm/min to 1.30nm/min and of $8.92g/cm^3$ to $10.6g/cm^3$ depending on the deposition temperature. $T_aC_xN_y$ films deposited below $400^{\circ}C$ were amorphous and became polycrystal line above $500^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed that the $T_aC_xN_y$ film was a mixture of TaC, graphite, $Ta_3N_5$, TaN, and $Ta_2O_5$ phases and the oxide phase was formed from the post deposition oxygen uptake. With the increase of the deposition temperature, the TaN phase was increased over TaC and $Ta_3N_5$ and crystallinity, work function, conductivity and density of the film were increased. Also the oxygen uptake was decreased due to the increase of the film density. With the increase of the TaC phase in $T_aC_xN_y$ film, the work function was decreased to 4.25eV and with the increase of the TaN phase in $T_aC_xN_y$ film,it was increased to 4.48eV.

The stochiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film, $ZnIn_2S_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) in the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $610^{\circ}C$ and $450^{\circ}C$, respectively and the growth rate of the $ZnIn_2S_4$ sing1e crystal thin film was about $0.5\;{\mu}m/hr$. The crystalline structure of $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film was investigated by photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD) measurement. The carrier density and mobility of $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.51{\times}10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$, $291\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at $293_{\circ}\;K$, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c - axis of the $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting ${\Delta}S_O$ and the crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ were 0.0148 eV and 0.1678 eV at $10_{\circ}\; K$, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement of $ZnIn_2S_4$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition $(E_X)$ typically observed only in high quality crystal and neutral donor bound exciton $(D^{o},X)$ having very strong peak intensity The full width at half maximum and binding energy of neutral donor bound excition were 9 meV and 26 meV, respectively, The activation energy of impurity measured by Haynes rule was 130 meV.

본 연구에서는 유기박막트랜지스터(OTFT, Organic Thin film Transistor)에 응용을 위해 용액(soluble) 공정을 통하여 제작된 pentacene 박막의 특성을 분석하여 pentacene 박막의 OTFT 소자에 적용 가능성을 조사하였다. Pentacene을 용해시키기 위해 toluene과 chloroform의 두 종류의 용제를 사용하였으며, 이들 용제가 pentacene 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. Pentacene 용액은 ITO/Glass 기판위에 spin-coating 법으로 유기 반도체 박막을 제작하여 각 박막의 표면형상, 결정화 특성과 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. AFM을 이용한 표면 형상 관찰 결과 chloroform을 이용한 pentacene 박막이 toluene을 이용한 박막에 비하여 표면 거칠기가 개선되는 경향을 보여주었다. XRD 회절 분석 결과 모든 pentacene 박막 시료에서 결정화가 되지 않은 비정질 형태를 보여주었다. Hall effect measurement 분석 결과 chloroform 용제를 이용한 pentacene 박막이 toluene용제를 사용한 시료에 비해 보다 우수한 전기적 특성을 나타내었다. 즉, chloroform에 용해된 pentacene 박막의 경우 전하농도와 이동도는 $-3.225{\times}10^{14}\;cm^{-3}$와 $3.5{\times}10^{-1}\;cm^2\;V^{-1}{\cdot}S^{-1}$를 각각 나타내었다. 또한 비저항은 약 $2.5{\times}10^2\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$를 얻었다.

This paper covers our efforts to improve the low carrier mobility and light instability of hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) films with microcrystalline silicon $({\mu}c-Si)$ films. We successfully prepared ${\mu}c-Si$ films on $CaF_2$/glass substrate by decomposition of $SiH_4$ in RPCVD system. The $CaF_2$ films on glass served as a seed layer for ${\mu}c-Si$ film growth. The XRD analysis on $CaF_2$/glass illustrated a (111) preferred $CaF_2$ grains with the lattice mismatch less than 5 % of Si. We achieved ${\mu}c-Si$ films with a crystalline volume fraction of 61 %, (111) and (220) crystal orientations. grain size of $706\AA$, activation energy of 0.49 eV, and Photo/dark conductivity ratio of 124. By using a $CaF_2$/glass structure. we were able to achieve an improved ${\mu}c-Si$ films at a low substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$.

Ionically modified ${\beta}$-cyclodextrins, which have excellent water-solubility, have been interested in purification technology as well as drug carrier system. The present study summarizes the synthesis and characterization of cationic and anionic ${\beta}$-cyclodextrin (${\beta}$-CyD) products using by polycondensation. The oligo (${\beta}$-CyD)s are synthesized from ${\beta}$-CyD, epichlorohydrin (EP) and choline chloride (CC; for cationic polymer) or chloroacetic acid (CAA; for anionic polymer) through one step polycondenstaion process. Unlike the previous studies, we successfully purified the ionic ${\beta}$-CyD condensation products from the ${\beta}$-CyD reaction mixtures and accomplished a great level of structural analysis. The detailed structural analysis of these ionic ${\beta}$-CyD compounds is done by $^1H$ NMR, MALDI-TOF as well as GPC analysis and confirms the formation of oligomers with a few units of ${\beta}$-CyD. We found that the sequence of reactant addition also could effect on the molecular weight of the resulting product as well as the molar ratio of the reactants. Finally, we used the cationic and anionic ${\beta}$-CyD oligomers for fabricating multilayer films by layer-layer process.

In this study, the synthesis and semiconducting properties of cation and defect-doped $KTaO_3$ film is reported. $KTaO_3$ is an important material for optoelectronic and tunable microwave applications. It is an incipient ferroelectric with a cubic structure that becomes ferroelectric when doped with Nb. While numerous studies have investigated the thin-film growth of semiconducting perovskites, little is reported about semiconducting $KTaO_3$ thin films. In this work, the films were grown on (001) MgO single crystal substrates using pulsed-laser deposition. Semiconducting behavior is achieved by inducing oxygen vacancies in the $KTaO_3$ lattice via growth in a hydrogen atmosphere. The resistivity of semiconducting $KTaO_3:Ca$ films was as low as 10cm, and n-type semiconducting behavior was indicated. Hall mobility and carrier concentration were $0.27cm^2/Vs$ and $3.21018cm^{-3}$, respectively. Crystallinity and microstructure of the $KTaO_3:Ca$ films were examined using X-ray diffraction and field-emission scanning microscopy.

We propose a SPICE model of drain-induced barrier lowering (DIBL) for a junctionless cylindrical surrounding gate (JLCSG) MOSFETs. To this end, the potential distribution in the channel is obtained via the Poisson equation, and the threshold voltage model is presented for the JLCSG MOSFET. In a JLCSG nano-structured MOSFET, a channel radius affects the carrier transfer as well as the channel length and oxide thickness; therefore, DIBL should be expressed as a function of channel length, channel radius, and oxide thickness. Consequently, it can be seen that DIBLs are proportional to the power of -3 for the channel length, 2 for the channel radius, 1 for the thickness of the oxide film, and the constant of proportionality is 18.5 when the SPICE parameter, the static feedback coefficient ${\eta}$, is between 0.2 and 1.0. In particular, as the channel radius and the oxide film thickness increase, the value of ${\eta}$ remains nearly constant.

Recently, organic thin-film transistors have been widely researched for organic light-emitting diode panels, memory devices, logic circuits for flexible display because of its virtue of mechanical flexibility, low fabrication cost, low process temperature, and large area production. In order to achieve high performance OTFTs, increase in accumulation carrier mobility is a critical factor. Post-fabrication thermal annealing process has been known as one of the methods to achieve this by improving the crystal quality of organic semiconductor materials In this paper, we researched the properties of pentacene films with X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) analyses as different annealing temperature in N2 ambient. Electrical characterization of the pentacene based thin film transistor was also conducted by transfer length method (TLM) with different annealing temperature in Al- and Ti-pentacene junctions to confirm the Fermi level pinning phenomenon. For Al- and Ti-pentacene junctions, is was found that as the surface quality of the pentacene films changed as annealing temperature increased, the hole-barrier height (h-BH) that were controlled by Fermi level pinning were effectively reduced.
