Organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) are fabricated on the plastic substrate through 4-level mask process without photolithographic patterning to yield the simple fabrication process. And we herewith report for the effect of dielectric surface modification on the electrical characteristics of OTFTs. The KIST-JM-1 as an organic molecule for the surface modification is deposited onto the surface of zirconium oxide $(ZrO_2)$ gate dielectric layer. In this work, we have examined the dependence of electrical performance on the interface surface state of gate dielectric/pentacene, which may be modified by chemical properties in the gate dielectric surface.

The processing technology of organic thin-film transistors (Ons) performances have improved fur the last decade. Gate insulator layer has generally used inorganic layer, such as silicon oxide which has properties of a low electrical conductivity and a high breakdown field. However, inorganic insulating layers, which are formed at high temperature, may affect other layers termed on a substrate through preceding processes. On the other hand, organic insulating layers, which are formed at low temperature, dose not affect pre-process. Known wet-processing methods for fabricating organic insulating layers include a spin coating, dipping and Langmuir-Blodgett film processes. In this paper, we propose the new dry-processing method of organic gate dielectric film in field-effect transistors. Vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) that is mainly used to the conducting polymers is introduced to form the gate dielectric. This method is appropriate to mass production in various end-user applications, for example, flat panel displays, because it has the advantages of shadow mask patterning and in-situ dry process with flexible low-cost large area displays. Also we fabricated four by four active pixels with all-organic thin-film transistors and phosphorescent organic light emitting devices.

In this study, etching characteristics of polyimide(Pl) film with $O_2/CF_4$ gas mixing ratio was studied using inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The etch rate and selectivity were evaluated to chamber pressure and gas mixing ratio. High etch rate (over 8000$\AA$/min) and vertical profile were acquired in $CF_4$/($CF_4+O_2$) of 0.2. The selectivities of polyimide to PR and polyimide to $SiO_2$ were 1.15, 5.85, respectively. The profiles of polyimide film etched in $CF_4/O_2$ were measured by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) with using an aluminum hard mask pattern. The chemical states on the polyimide film surface were measured by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

In this paper, we developed the process for depth-probe type silicon microelectrode arrays. The process consists of four mask steps only. The steps are for defining sites, windows, and for shaping probe using plasma etch from above, and for shaping using wet etch from below, respectively. The probe thickness is controlled by dry etching, not by impurity diffusion. We used gold electrodes with a triple dielectric system consisting of oxide/nitride/oxide. The shank of the probe taper from 200um to tens of urn tip and has 30 um thickness.

A small size broadband microstrip patch antenna with small ground plane has been fabricated using MEMS. Multiple layer of high and low dielectric substrates are used to realize small size and broadband characteristics. The microstrip patch is divided into 4 pieces and each patch is connected to each other using a metal microstrip line. The fabrication process is very simple and only one mask is needed. Two types of microtrip antennas are fabricated. Type A is the microstrip antenna with metal lines and type B is the microstrip antenna without metal lines. The size of proposed microstip antenna is $8*12*2mm^3$ and the experimental results show that the antenna type A and type B have the bandwidth of 420MHz at 5.3 GHz and 480MHz at 5.66 GHz, respectively.

Sufficient removal rate with adequate selectivity to realize the pattern mask of tetra-ethyl ortho-silicate (TEOS) film for the vertical sidewall angle were obtained by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) with commercial silica slurry as a function of pH variation. The changes of X-ray diffraction pattern and dielectric constant by CMP process were negligible.

The effect of SiH2Cl2 -HCl gas on the growth rate of epitaxial layer is studied. The temperature, pressure and gas mixing ratio of SiH2Cl2 and HCl are varied to study the growth rate dependence and selective Si epitaxy. The P-n junction diode is fabricated on the epitaxial layer and electrical characteristics are examined. Also, using selective Si epitaxy, a possibility of thin dielectric isolation process, that gives an independent isolation width on the mask dimension, is examined.

실리콘 소자가 더욱 미세화되면서, 발생되는 power consumption, crosstalk와 interconnection delay 등을 감소시키기 위해 $SiO_2$ 대신에 저유전 상수막의 적용이 고려되어진다. 본 논문에서는, 저유전 상수 층간 절연막 재료로 유망한 폴리이미드의 식각 특성에 $O_2/SF_6$ 가스가 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 폴리이미드의 식각률을 SF(sub)6 가스의 첨가에 따라 산소와 hydrocarbon 폴리머 간의 반응을 억제하는 비휘발성 물질은 fluorine 화합물의 형성에 의해 감소되었다. 반면에, 기판 전극의 전압 증가는 물리적인 충격을 통해 식각 공정을 증가시켰다. 또한 작은 량의 SF(sub)6 가스 첨가는 식각 topography에 바람직하였다. 폴리이미드 식각을 위한 $SiO_2$ hard mask 사용은 산소 플라즈마 식각 하에서 효과적이었다(선택비-30). 반면에 $O_2SF_6$ 가스 조성은 식각 선택비를 4로 저하시키게 되었다. 이러한 결과를 기초로, $1-2\mu\textrm{m}$ 선폭을 가진 PI 2610의 식각을 원활히 수행할 수 있었다.

BTO ($BaTiO_3$) thin film is one of the high dielectric materials for high-density dynamic random access memories (DRAMs) due to its relatively high dielectric constant. It is generally known that BTO film is difficult to be etched by plasma etching, but high etch rate with good selectivity to pattern mask was required. The problem of sidewall angle also still remained to be solved in plasma etching of BTO thin film. In this study, we first examined the patterning possibility of BTO film by chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process instead of plasma etching. The sputtered BTO film on TEOS film as a stopper layer was polished by CMP process with the self-developed $BaTiO_3$- and $TiO_2$-mixed abrasives slurries (MAS), respectively. The removal rate of BTO thin film using the$ BaTiO_3$-mixed abrasive slurry ($BaTiO_3$-MAS) was higher than that using the $TiO_2$-mixed abrasive slurry ($TiO_2$-MAS) in the same concentrations. The maximum removal rate of BTO thin film was 848 nm/min with an addition of $BaTiO_3$ abrasive at the concentration of 3 wt%. The sufficient within-wafer non-uniformity (WIWNU%)below 5% was obtained in each abrasive at all concentrations. The surface morphology of polished BTO thin film was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM).
