Recently, nonvolatile memories (NVM) of various types have been researched to improve the electrical performance such as program/erase voltages, speed and retention times. Also, the charge trap memory is a strong candidate to realize the ultra dense 20-nm scale NVM. Furthermore, the high charge efficiency and the thermal stability of SiC nanocrystals NVM with single $SiO_2$ tunnel barrier have been reported. [1-2] In this study, the SiC charge trap NVM was fabricated and electrical properties were characterized. The 100-nm thick Poly-Si layer was deposited to confined source/drain region by using low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LP-CVD). After etching and lithography process for fabricate the gate region, the $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$ (NON) and $SiO_2/Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ (ONO) barrier engineered tunnel layer were deposited by using LP-CVD. The equivalent oxide thickness of NON and ONO tunnel layer are 5.2 nm and 5.6 nm, respectively. By using ultra-high vacuum magnetron sputtering with base pressure 3x10-10 Torr, the 2-nm SiC and 20-nm $SiO_2$ were successively deposited on ONO and NON tunnel layers. Finally, after deposited 200-nm thick Al layer, the source, drain and gate areas were defined by using reactive-ion etching and photolithography. The lengths of squire gate are $2\;{\mu}m$, $5\;{\mu}m$ and $10\;{\mu}m$. The electrical properties of devices were measured by using a HP 4156A precision semiconductor parameter analyzer, E4980A LCR capacitor meter and an Agilent 81104A pulse pattern generator system. The electrical characteristics such as the memory effect, program/erase speeds, operation voltages, and retention time of SiC charge trap memory device with barrier engineered tunnel layer will be discussed.

This study represents the results of the peel strength and surface morphology according to the preprocessing times of polyimide (PI) in a Cu/Ni/PI structure flexible copper clad laminate production process based on the polyimide. Field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to analyze the surface morphology, crystal structure, and interface binding structure of sputtered Ni, Cu, and electrodeposited copper foil layers. The surface roughness of Ni, Cu deposition layers and the crystal structure of electrodeposited Cu layers were varied according to the preprocessing times. In the RF plasma times that were varied by 100-600 seconds in a preprocessing process, the preprocessing applied by about 300-400 seconds showed a homogeneous surface morphology in the metal layers and that also represented high peel strength for the polyimide. Considering the effect of peel strength on plastic deformation, preprocessing times can reasonably be at about 400 seconds.

그래핀으로 박리시키기 위한 한 가지 방법으로 산화그래핀이 많은 관심이 집중되고 있다. 산화그래핀의 산화그룹은 다양한 기능기와 수소결합을 시킬 수 있어 여러 응용분야에 이를 적용시키기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 하지만 산화그래핀 자체만으로는 실질적으로 응용에 요구되어지는 기계적 물성을 만족시킬 수 없다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 홍합 단백질을 생체모사한 폴리도파민을 이용하여 산화그래핀과 결합시키고 액체-기체 계면에서 대면적의 복합체막을 형성 시켰다. 또한 폴리도파민-산화그래핀 복합체 박막의 모폴로지 구조도 제어하여 나노 링클 구조를 가지는 복합체 막을 얻었다. 기계적으로 우수하며 정교한 나노 구조를 형성할 수 있어 차세대 해수담수화 멤브레인 또는 탄소 복합재료에 이용될 수 있을 것으로 기대될 수 있다.

$TiO_2$ films were deposited from oxygen/titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) plasmas at low temperature by Helicon-PECVD at floating potential ($V_f$) or substrate self-bias of -50 V. The influence of titanium precursor partial pressure on the morphology, nanostructure and optical properties was investigated. Low titanium partial pressure ([TTIP] < 0.013 Pa) was applied by controlling the TTIP flow rate which is introduced by its own vapor pressure, whereas higher titanium partial pressure was formed through increasing the flow rate by using a carrier gas (CG). Then the precursor partial pressures [TTIP+CG] = 0:027 Pa and 0.093 Pa were obtained. At $V_f$, all the films exhibit a columnar structure, but the degree of inhomogeneity is decreased with the precursor partial pressure. Phase transformation from anatase ([TTIP] < 0.013 Pa) to amorphous ([TTIP+CG] = 0:093 Pa) has been evidenced since the $O^+_2$ ion to neutral flux ratio in the plasma was decreased and more carbon contained in the film. However, in the case of -50 V, the related growth rate for different precursor partial pressures is slightly (~15%) decreased. The columnar morphology at [TTIP] < 0.013 Pa has been changed into a granular structure, but still homogeneous columns are observed for [TTIP+CG] = 0:027 Pa and 0.093 Pa. Rutile phase has been generated at [TTIP] < 0:013 Pa. Ellipsometry measurements were performed on the films deposited at -50 V; results show that the precursor addition from low to high levels leads to a decrease in refractive index.

최근 폴리이미드가 기판으로 사용되어 유기발광다이오드 디스플레이가 구현된 폴더블 스마트폰이 출시되고 있다. 이와 같이 굽힘이 가능한 기판위에 다양한 전자소자를 제작하기 위한 관심이 증가하고 있기 때문에 본 논문에서는 굽힘성이 우수한 127㎛ 두께의 얇은 스테인리스 금속 기판을 이용하여 먼저 크롬을 코팅하고 알루미늄을 형성한 샘플과 알루미늄 구현 후 크롬을 증착한 2가지 샘플을 급속 열처리 장비를 이용하여 150도, 350도, 550도의 온도에서 각각 20분간 어닐링을 진행하여 표면의 형상을 관찰하였다. 고분해능 SEM과 nm까지 거칠기를 측정할 수 있는 AFM을 이용하여 표면에 대한 데이터를 추출하였다. 350도까지는 열처리하지 않은 샘플과 차이가 없지만, 550도에서는 결정립의 변화를 확인할 수 있다. 향후 본 실험 결과는 플렉서블 광전자분야로의 적용을 위해 전기전도도, 반사도와 같은 특성 분석 및 광소자 제작을 통해 금속 소재의 플렉서블 전자소자로의 적용 가능성을 모색할 것이다.

We analyzed the influence of post-annealing on Ga₂O₃/n-type 4H-SiC heterojunction diode. Gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) thin films were deposited by radio frequency (RF) sputtering. Post-deposition annealing at 950℃ in an Oxygen atmosphere was performed. The material properties of Ga₂O₃ and the electrical properties of the diodes were investigated. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-Ray Diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images show a significant increase in the roughness and crystallinity of the O₂-annealed films. After Oxygen annealing X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the atomic ratio of oxygen increases which is related to a decrease in oxygen vacancy within the Ga₂O₃ film. The O₂-annealed diodes exhibited higher on-current and lower leakage current. Moreover, the ideality factor, barrier height, and thermal activation energy were derived from the current-voltage curve by increasing the temperature from 298 - 434K.

Atomically-thin 2D nanomaterials can be easily deformed and have surface corrugations which can influence the frictional characteristics of the 2D nanomaterials. Chemical vapor deposition (CVD) graphene can be grown in a wafer scale, which is suitable as a large-area surface coating film. The CVD growth involves cooling process to room temperature, and the thermal expansion coefficients mismatch between graphene and the metallic substrate induces a compressive strain in graphene, resulting in the surface corrugations such as wrinkles and atomic ripples. Such corrugations can induce the friction anisotropy of graphene, and therefore, accurate imaging of the surface corrugation is significant for better understanding about the friction anisotropy of CVD graphene. In this work, the combinatorial analysis using friction force microscopy (FFM) and transverse shear microscopy (TSM) was implemented to unveil the friction anisotropy of CVD bi-layer graphene. The periodic friction anisotropy of the wrinkles was measured following a sinusoidal curve depending on the angles between the wrinkles and the scanning tip, and the two domains were observed to have the different friction signals due to the different directions of the atomic ripples, which was confirmed by the high-resolution FFM and TSM imaging. In addition, we revealed that the atomic ripples can be easily suppressed by ironing the surface during AFM scans with an appropriate normal force. This work demonstrates that the friction anisotropy of CVD bilayer graphene is well-correlated with the corrugated structures and the local friction anisotropy induced by the atomic ripples can be controllably removed by simple AFM scans.

The low-temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) is a crucial factor in the development of space-grade resistors for temperature stability. Consequently, extensive research is underway to achieve zero TCR. In this study, resistors were deposited by co-sputtering nickel-chromium-based composite compositions, metals showing positive TCR, with SiO₂, introducing negative TCR components. It was observed that achieving zero TCR is feasible by adjusting the proportion of negative TCR components in the deposited thin film resistors within certain compositions. Additionally, the correlation between TCR and deposition conditions, such as sputtering power, Ar pressure, and surface roughness, was investigated. We anticipate that these findings will contribute to the study of resistors with very low TCR, thereby enhancing the reliability of space-level resistors operating under high temperatures.

리튬은 가장 가벼운 금속일 뿐만 아니라 낮은 환원전위(-3.04 V vs. SHE)와 큰 이론용량($3860mAh\;g^{-1}$)을 가지고 있어 차세대 음극 소재로 연구되고 있다. 리튬 금속을 전극으로 사용하는 리튬이차전지의 경우 전지의 효율과 에너지 밀도 극대화를 위해 얇은 두께의 리튬 전극이 필요하지만 기존의 리튬 박을 제조하는 물리적인 압연 방법으로는 일정수준 이하의 두께를 가지는 리튬 박을 제조하는데 한계가 있다. 본 연구에서는 물리적인 방법 대신 전해도금법으로 박막의 리튬을 전착하여 전해도금 시 사용되는 전해액의 종류와 전착 조건이 전착 특성 및 전착된 리튬의 전기화학 특성에 주는 영향을 확인하였다. 전착 전해액의 농도가 높을 수록 리튬 덴드라이트(dendrite) 형성 억제에 유리한 크고 둥근 형태의 리튬 입자를 형성하였으며 우수한 stripping 효율 (92.68%, 3M LiFSI in DME) 을 나타냈다. 전착 속도(전류 밀도)의 경우 속도 증가에 따라 리튬이 길이 방향으로 성장하여 길고 끝이 뾰족한 형태를 가지는 경향을 보였으며, 이로 인한 비표면적 증가로 전착된 리튬 전극의 stripping 효율이 감소(90.41%, 3M LiFSI in DME, $0.8mA\;cm^{-2}$)하는 경향을 확인하였다. 두 종류의 염과 용매를 조합하여 얻은 1.5M LiFSI + 1.5M LiTFSI in DME : DOL (1 : 1 vol%) (Du-Co) 전해액에서 전착된 리튬 전극이 가장 우수한 stripping 효율 (97.26%) 및 안정적인 가역성을 보였으며, 이는 염의 분해물로 구성된 전극 표면 피막의 Li-F 성분이 주는 안정성 향상과 피막의 유연성을 부여하는 DOL 효과에 기인한 것으로 추정된다.
