In this work, we report the comprehensive study of performance enhancement of InGaAs n-MOSFET by plasma $PH_3$ p assivation. The calibrated plasma $PH_3$ passivation of the InGaA ssurface before CVD high-k dielectric deposition significantly improves interface quality, resulting in suppressed frequency dispersion in C-V, increase in drive-current with high electron mobility, and excellent thermal stability.

Pentacene channel OTFT(organic thin film transistor)을 SiOC 절연박막 위에서 film by thermal evaporation 방법을 이용하여 성장시켰다. CVD 방법으로 증착시킨 SiOC 절연막은 조성비에 따라 특성이 달라지므로 절연막 위에서의 펜타센의 화학적 반응을 조사하기 위해서 inorganic-type인 $O_2/(BTMSM\;+\;O_2)$ = 0.5의 비율을 갖는 SiOC 박막을 사용하였다. 팬타센 분자의 말단에서 SiOC 표면에서 Diels-Alder 반응에 의한 이중결합이 깨어지면서 안정된 성장을 하지만 온도가 높아감에 따라 표면에서의 $SN_2$(bimolecular nucleophilic substitution) 반응과 연쇄적인 화학반응에 의해 팬타센의 성장을 방해하는 것으로 나타났다.

Uniform polycrystalline $CoSi_2$layers have been grown in situ on a polycrystalline Si substrate at temperature near $625^{\circ}C$ by reactive chemical vapor deposition of cyclopentadienyl dicarbonyl cobalt, Co(η$^{5}$ -C$_{5}$ H$_{5}$ )(CO)$_2$. The growth behavior and thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer grown on polycrystalline Si substrates were investigated. The plate-like CoSi$_2$was initially formed with either (111), (220) or (311) interface on polycrystalline Si substrate. As deposition time was increasing, a uniform epitaxial $CoSi_2$layer was grown from the discrete $CoSi_2$plate, where the orientation of the$ CoSi_2$layer is same as the orientation of polycrystalline Si grain. The interface between $CoSi_2$layer and polycrystalline Si substrate was always (111) coherent. The growth of the uniform $CoSi_2$layer had a parabolic relationship with the deposition time. Therefore we confirmed that the growth of $CoSi_2$layer was controlled by diffusion of cobalt. The thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer on small grain-sized polycrystalline Si substrate has been investigated using sheet resistance measurement at temperature from $600^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. The $CoSi_2$layer was degraded at $900^{\circ}C$. Inserting a TiN interlayer between polycrystalline Si and $_CoSi2$layers improved the thermal stability of $CoSi_2$layer up to $900^{\circ}C$ due to the suppression of the Co diffusion.

The promise of nano-crystalites (nc) as a technological material, for applications including display backplane, and solar cells, may ultimately depend on tailoring their behavior through doping and crystallinity. Impurities can strongly modify electronic and optical properties of bulk and nc semiconductors. Highly doped dopant also effect structural properties (both grain size, crystal fraction) of nc-Si thin film. As discussed in several literatures, P atoms or radicals have the tendency to reside on the surface of nc. The P-radical segregation on the nano-grain surfaces that called self-purification may reduce the possibility of new nucleation because of the five-coordination of P. In addition, the P doping levels of ${\sim}2{\times}10^{21}\;at/cm^3$ is the solubility limitation of P in Si; the solubility of nc thin film should be smaller. Therefore, the non-activated P tends to segregate on the grain boundaries and the surface of nc. These mechanisms could prevent new nucleation on the existing grain surface. Therefore, most researches shown that highly doped nc-thin film by using conventional PECVD deposition system tended to have low crystallinity, where the formation energy of nucleation should be higher than the nc surface in the intrinsic materials. If the deposition technology that can make highly doped and simultaneously highly crystallized nc at low temperature, it can lead processes of next generation flexible devices. Recently, we are developing a novel CVD technology with a neutral particle beam (NPB) source, named as neutral beam assisted CVD (NBaCVD), which controls the energy of incident neutral particles in the range of 1~300eV in order to enhance the atomic activation and crystalline of thin films at low temperatures. During the formation of the nc-/pm-Si thin films by the NBaCVD with various process conditions, NPB energy directly controlled by the reflector bias and effectively increased crystal fraction (~80%) by uniformly distributed nc grains with 3~10 nm size. In the case of phosphorous doped Si thin films, the doping efficiency also increased as increasing the reflector bias (i.e. increasing NPB energy). At 330V of reflector bias, activation energy of the doped nc-Si thin film reduced as low as 0.001 eV. This means dopants are fully occupied as substitutional site, even though the Si thin film has nano-sized grain structure. And activated dopant concentration is recorded as high as up to 1020 #/$cm^3$ at very low process temperature (＜ $80^{\circ}C$) process without any post annealing. Theoretical solubility for the higher dopant concentration in Si thin film for order of 1020 #/$cm^3$ can be done only high temperature process or post annealing over $650^{\circ}C$. In general, as decreasing the grain size, the dopant binding energy increases as ratio of 1 of diameter of grain and the dopant hardly be activated. The highly doped nc-Si thin film by low-temperature NBaCVD process had smaller average grain size under 10 nm (measured by GIWAXS, GISAXS and TEM analysis), but achieved very higher activation of phosphorous dopant; NB energy sufficiently transports its energy to doping and crystallization even though without supplying additional thermal energy. TEM image shows that incubation layer does not formed between nc-Si film and SiO2 under later and highly crystallized nc-Si film is constructed with uniformly distributed nano-grains in polymorphous tissues. The nucleation should be start at the first layer on the SiO2 later, but it hardly growth to be cone-shaped micro-size grains. The nc-grain evenly embedded pm-Si thin film can be formatted by competition of the nucleation and the crystal growing, which depend on the NPB energies. In the evaluation of the light soaking degradation of photoconductivity, while conventional intrinsic and n-type doped a-Si thin films appeared typical degradation of photoconductivity, all of the nc-Si thin films processed by the NBaCVD show only a few % of degradation of it. From FTIR and RAMAN spectra, the energetic hydrogen NB atoms passivate nano-grain boundaries during the NBaCVD process because of the high diffusivity and chemical potential of hydrogen atoms.

Carbon nanotube(CNT) has been spotlighted as a promising candidate for catalyst support material for PEMFC (proton exchange membrane fuel cell). The considerable properties of CNT include high surface area, outstanding thermal, electrical conductivity and mechanical stability. In this study, to fully utilize the properties of CNTs, we prepared directly oriented CNT on carbon paper as a catalyst support in the cathode electrode. The CNT layer was prepared by a chemical vapor deposition(CVD) process. And the Pt particles were deposited on the CNT oriented carbon paper by impregnation and eletro-deposition method. The potential advantages of directly oriented CNT on carbon paper can include improved thermal and charge transfer through direct contact between the electrolyte and the electrode and enhanced exposure of Pt catalyst sites during the reaction.

Carbon nanofibers were deposited on silicon oxide substrate by thermal chemical vapor deposition method. For the enhancement of the characteristics of carbon nanofibers, the source gases ($C_2H_2,\;H_2$) flows were intentionally manipulated as the cyclic on/off modulation of $C_2H_2$ flow. By the cyclic modulation process during the initial deposition stage, the formation density of carbon nanofibers on the substrate could be much more enhanced. The diameter of as-grown carbon nanofibers was also reduced by the cyclic modulation process. The cause for the variation in the characteristics of carbon nanofibers by the cyclic modulation process was discussed in association with the hydrogen gas etching ability.

Silica nanostructures have been attached considerable attention because of theirs potential application in mesoscopic research and the potential use of large surface area structure of catalysts. SiO2 nannowire and nanorods was synthesized various methods including thermal evaporation, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), and laser ablation methods. In this experiments, SiO2 nanowire were grown using thermal evaporation method followed by VS (Vapor-Solid) growth mechanisms. Grown SiO2 nanowires were amorphous phases because of its low growth temperatures. Grown nanowires diameters were about 20-40nm at all growth conditions, but its microstructres were different by that used substrate because of it's oxygen contents.

Graphene is a two-dimensional sp2 layer material. Despite the short history in the empirical synthesis of the graphene layers, the academic/industrial unique features have brought highly significant interest in research and development related to graphene-related materials. In particular, the electrical and optical performances have been targeted towards pre-existing microelectronicand emerging nanoelectronic applications. The graphene synthesis relies on a variety of processing factors, such as temperature, pressure, and gas ratios involving H2, CH4, and Ar, in addition to the inherent selection of copper substrates. The current work places its emphasis on the role of experimental factors in growing graphene thin films. The thermally-grown graphene layers are characterized using physical/chemical analyses, i.e., four point resistance measurements, Raman spectroscopy, and UV-Visible spectrophotometry. Ultimately, an optimization strategy is proposed in growing high-quality graphene layers well-controlled through empirical factors.
