  • 연구목적: 본 연구는 machined 임플란트와 골유도능이 있는 calcium phosphate를 electron-beam deposition으로 coating처리한 임플란트의 골/임플란트 접촉률을 조직형태계측학적으로 비교하는 것이다. 연구 재료 및 방법:여섯 마리의 수컷 New Zealand white rabbit과직경3.3 mm, 길이 5 mm의 임플란트 24개를 준비하였다. Machined 임플란트 (대조군)와 calcium phosphate coated 임플란트(실험군)를 좌, 우 경골에 2개씩 총 4개를 식립하고 임플란트 주위에 부하가 가해지지 않도록 하여 3주, 6주의 치유기간을 두었다. 식립 3주와 6주후, 각각 3마리의 토끼를 희생하여 조직시편을 제작하였다. 제작된 시편을 광학현미경 하에서 골/임플란트 접촉률 (BIC ratio)을 계산하고 paired t-test로 두 군을 비교하였다. 결과:골/임플란트 접촉률은 임플란트 식립 3주후, 대조군에서 평균과 표준편차는$44.1{\pm}16.5%$ 이었고 실험군은 $70.8{\pm}18.9%$로 실험군이 통계적으로 유의하게 높았다 (P= 0.0264). 6주후의경우, machined 임플란트는 $78.6{\pm}15.1%$, calcium phosphate coated 임플란트는 $79.0{\pm}26.0%$로 두 군 간 통계적으로 유의한 차이는 없었다. 결론: Calcium phosphate coated 임플란트는 machined 티타늄 임플란트에 비해 빠른 초기 골반응을 나타냈다. 그러므로, 임상적으로 calcium phosphate coated 임플란트를 사용했을 때, 수술 후 치유 기간을 단축하여 조기 부하가 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

  • Statement of problem: Recently, anodic oxidation of cp-titanium is a popular method for treatment of titanium implant surfaces. It is a relatively easy process, and the thickness, structure, composition, and the microstructure of the oxide layer can be variably modified. Moreover the biological properties of the oxide layer can be controlled. Purpose: In this study, the roughness, microstructure, crystal structure of the variously treated groups (current, voltage, frequency, electrolyte, thermal treatment) were evaluated. And the specimens were soaked in simulated body fluid (SBF) to evaluate the effects of the surface characteristics and the oxide layers on the bioactivity of the specimens which were directly related to bone formation and integration. Materials and methods: Surface treatments consisted of either anodization or anodization followed thermal treatment. Specimens were divided into seven groups, depending on their anodizing treatment conditions: constant current mode (350V for group 2), constant voltage mode (155V for group 3), 60 Hz pulse series (230V for group 4, 300V for group 5), and 1000 Hz pulse series (400V for group 6, 460V for group 7). Non-treated native surfaces were used as controls (group 1). In addition, for the purpose of evaluating the effects of thermal treatment, each group was heat treated by elevating the temperature by $5^{\circ}C$ per minute until $600^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, and then bench cured. Using scanning electron microscope (SEM), porous oxide layers were observed on treated surfaces. The crystal structures and phases of titania were identified by thin-film x-ray diffractmeter (TF-XRD). Atomic force microscope (AFM) was used for roughness measurement (Sa, Sq). To evaluate bioactivity of modified titanium surfaces, each group was soaked in SBF for 168 hours (1 week), and then changed surface characteristics were analyzed by SEM and TF-XRD. Results: On basis of our findings, we concluded the following results. 1. Most groups showed morphologically porous structures. Except group 2, all groups showed fine to coarse convex structures, and the groups with superior quantity of oxide products showed superior morphology. 2. As a result of combined anodization and thermal treatment, there were no effects on composition of crystalline structure. But, heat treatment influenced the quantity of formation of the oxide products (rutile / anatase). 3. Roughness decreased in the order of groups 7,5,2,3,6,4,1 and there was statistical difference between group 7 and the others (p<0.05), but group 7 did not show any bioactivity within a week. 4. In groups that implanted ions (Ca/P) on the oxide layer through current and voltage control, showed superior morphology, and oxide products, but did not express any bioactivity within a week. 5. In group 3, the oxide layer was uniformly organized with rutile, with almost no titanium peak. And there were abnormally more [101] orientations of rutile crystalline structure, and bonelike apatite formation could be seen around these crystalline structures. Conclusion: As a result of control of various factors in anodization (current, voltage, frequency, electrolytes, thermal treatment), the surface morphology, micro-porosity, the 2nd phase formation, crystalline structure, thickness of the oxide layer could be modified. And even more, the bioactivity of the specimens in vitro could be induced. Thus anodic oxidation can be considered as an excellent surface treatment method that will able to not only control the physical properties but enhance the biological characteristics of the oxide layer. Furthermore, it is recommended in near future animal research to prove these results.

  • 투명 산화물 반도체 (Transparent Oxide-TFT)를 활성층과 소스/드레인, 게이트 전극층으로 동시에 사용한 비결정 indium zinc oxide (a-IZO), 절연층으로 co-sputtered $HfO_2-Al_2O_3$ (HfAIO)을 적용하여 실온에서 RF-magnetron 스퍼터 공정에 의해 제작하였다. TFT의 게이트 절연막으로써 $HfO_2$ 는 그 높은 유전상수( > 20)에도 불구하고 미세결정구조와 작은 에너지 밴드갭 (5.31eV) 으로 부터 기인한 거친계면특성, 높은 누설전류의 단점을 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는, 어떠한 추가적인 열처리 공정 없이 co-sputtering에 의해 $HfO_2$$Al_2O_3$를 동시에 증착함으로써 구조적, 전기적 특성이 TFT 의 절연막으로 더욱 적합하게 향상되어진 $HfO_2$ 박막의 변화를 x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and spectroscopic ellipsometer (SE)를 통해 분석하였다. XRD 분석은 기존 $HfO_2$ 의 미세결정 구조가 $Al_2O_3$와의 co-sputter에 의해 비결정 구조로 변한 것을 확인 시켜 주었고, AFM 분석을 통해 $HfO_2$ 의 표면 거칠기를 비교할 수 있는 RMS 값이 2.979 nm 인 것에 반해 HfAIO의 경우 0.490 nm로 향상된 것을 확인하였다. 또한 SE 분석을 통해 $HfO_2$ 의 에너지 밴드 갭 5.17 eV 이 HfAIO 의 에너지 밴드 갭 5.42 eV 로 향상 되어진 것을 알 수 있었다. 자유 전자 농도와 그에 따른 비저항도를 적절하게 조절한 활성층/전극층 으로써의 IZO 물질과 게이트 절연층으로써 co-sputtered HfAIO를 적용하여 제작한 Oxide-TFT 의 전기적 특성은 이동도 $10cm^2/V{\cdot}s$이상, 문턱전압 2 V 이하, 전류점멸비 $10^5$ 이상, 최대 전류량 2 mA 이상을 보여주었다.

  • Cu 배선(interconnect) 적용을 위한 다층박막의 적층 구조에 따른 최적 계면접착에너지(interfacial adhesion energy, Gc) 평가방법을 도출하기 위해, Ta, Cu 및 tetraethyl orthosilicate(TEOS-SiO2) 박막 계면의 정량적 계면접착에너지를 double cantilever beam(DCB) 및 4-점 굽힘(4-point bending, 4-PB) 시험법을 통해 비교 평가하였다. 평가결과, Ta확산방지층이 적용된 시편(Cu/Ta, Cu/Ta/TEOS-SiO2)에서는 두 가지 평가방법 모두 반도체 전/후 공정에서 박리가 발생하지 않는 산업체 통용 기준인 5 J/㎡ 보다 높게 측정되었다. Ta/Cu 시편의 경우 DCB 시험에서만 5 J/㎡ 보다 낮게 측정되었다. 또한, DCB시험 보다 4-PB시험으로 측정된 Gc가 더 높았다. 이는 계면파괴역학 이론에 따라 이종재료의 계면균열 선단에서 위상각의 증가로 인한 계면 거칠기 및 소성변형에 의한 에너지 손실이 증가 하는것에 기인한다. 4-PB시험결과, Ta/Cu 및 Cu/Ta계면은 5 J/㎡ 이상의 높은 계면접착에너지를 보이므로, 계면접착에너지 관점에서는 Ta는 Cu배선의 확산방지층(diffusion barrier layer) 및 피복층(capping layer)으로 적용 가능할 것으로 생각된다. 또한, 배선 집적공정 및 소자의 사용환경에서 열팽창 계수 차이에 의한 열응력 및 화학적-기계적 연마 (chemical mechanical polishing)에 의한 박리는 전단응력이 포함된 혼합모드의 영향이 크므로 4-PB 시험으로 측정된 Gc와 연관성이 더 클 것으로 판단된다.
