  • Flexible Organic Light Emitting Diode (OLED) displays are required for future devices. It is possible that plastic substrates are instead of glass substrates. But the plastic substrates are permeable to moisture and oxygen. This weak point can cause the degradation of fabricated flexible devices; therefore, encapsulation process for flexible substrate is needed to protect organic devices from moisture and oxygen. Y.G. Lee et al.(2009) [1] reported organic and inorganic multilayer structure as an encapsulation barrier for enhanced reliability and life-time.Flowable Oxide process is a low-temperature process which shows the excellent gap-fill characteristics and high deposition rate. Besides, planarization is expected by covering dust smoothly on the substrate surface. So, in this research, Bi-layer structured is used for encapsulation: Flowable Oxide Thin film by PECVD process and Al2O3 thin film by ALD process. The samples were analyzed by water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) using the Calcium test and film cross section images were obtained by FE-SEM.

  • The aim of this study was to develop a model that could be used in the design of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) for Mandarin oranges. Respiratory data at 5, 10, 20$^{\circ}C$ for mandarin oranges were gathered and altered for create useful respiration model. The maximum rate of oxygen uptake increased with increasing temperature. The packaging materials were conventional low density polyethylene and polypropylene with anti-fog, and anti-fungi treatments, and thickness was 30 $\mu\textrm{m}$ and 50 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Permeability tests were performed to find their oxygen, carbon dioxide, water vapor transmission rate as increases in temperature. Test results were then converted to logarithm format for MAP modeling. Optimum gas composition in the package system for fruits were set according to literature and upper or lower limits of oxygen and dioxide established. To predict gas composition at certain storage time, weight of fruits, film thickness, film type, and other variables, respiration rate was studied at various storage conditions. The validity of the model was tested experimentally by observing actual atmospheric changes inside packages. It is concluded that the strategy developed is of use in designing dynamic gas exchange MAP systems, and also has potential uses in similar agricultural products.

  • Vertically aligned zinc oxide (ZnO) nanorods (NRs) with different surface morphology were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on sapphire substrate. The films thus prepared were characterized by measuring X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies. To study the effect of surface morphology on wettability, the contact angle (CA) of water was measured. It was demonstrated that the CA of the deposited ZnO NRs varied between $104^{\circ}$ and $135^{\circ}$ depending upon the surface morphology. Variable temperature photoluminescence (PL) have employed to probe the exciton recombination in high density and vertically aligned ZnO Nanorod arrays. The low-temperature PL characterizes the dominant near-band-edge excitonic emissions from such nanorod arrays.

  • In this research, an organic thin 13 passivation layer was newly adopted to prefect the organic layer from ambient moisture and oxygen. As the organic thin film passivation layer, poly methyl methacrylate thin films (ppMMA) were deposited using a plasma polymerization technique. In order to their passivation performance for OLEDs, water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of the ppMMAs were analyzed and luminance-current-voltage (L-I-V)/luminance-time (L-T) characteristics of the OLEDs with and without ppMMA passivation layer were investigated. The OLEDs had a structure of ITO/TPD (HTL)/Alq3(EML&ETL)/Al. The OLED with ppMMA passivation layer showed improved L-T performance than that of without ppMMA passivation layer.

  • The purposes of this study were to investigate the subjective wearing sensation of sleepwear, and to evaluate the comfort properties of fabrics used in the sleepwear. Design of experimental clothing was pajamas made with four types of woven fabrics: plain weave and satin weave made by cotton and polyester. The comfort properties were evaluated with respect to thermal retention, Qmax, moisture regain, water vapor transmission, and air permeability. The wear trials of experimental clothing were performed in two different environments, single-detached unit($23{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, $45%{\pm}3%$ R.H.) and apartment($27{\pm}1^{\circ}C$, $40{\pm}3%$ R.H), to evaluate microclimate temperature and humidity, and subjective wearing sensation. The results obtained from this study were as follows: 1. There were significant differences between the two environments on the clothing microclimate. 2. In the single detached unit environment, the microclimate temperature who wore cotton sleepwear was significantly higher than that of subjects wore the polyester sleepwear, whereas the microclimate humidity who wore polyester sleepwear was higher than that of subjects wore the polyester sleepwear. 3. In the apartment environment, the microclimate temperature who wore the polyester sleepwear showed higher than that of cotton sleepwear, whereas there was no significant difference between the cotton and polyester sleepwear on the microclimate humidity. 4 There were partially significant differences in subjective wearing sensation according to the fiber md weaving type of sleepwear regardless environment. 5. There were also partially significant correlations among the heat/moisture transmission properties of fabrics, the clothing microclimate and the subjective wearing sensation of sleepwear.

  • 지구 표면에 대한 정보는 기상 및 대기 역학의 이해나 인간을 포함한 동물에 큰 영향을 미치는 극한 열현상에 대응함에 있어서 핵심적인 지구 물리량이다. 지구 영역에 대한 온도를 추정하기 위하여 위성에 탑재된 열적외 센서가 널리 활용되어 왔는데, 정밀한 활용을 위해서는 온도 추정 과정의 불확도에 대한 이해가 선행되어야 한다. 하지만 온도추정 불확도에 영향을 미치는 많은 요소 중에서 한반도 주변의 환경 하에서의 온도추정 알고리즘의 불확도 산정에 대한 연구는 미미하였다. 본 연구에서는 한반도 주변의 대기 및 해양 조건하에서 범용성이 높은 single-channel 알고리즘의 불확도를 추정하는 연구를 수행하였다. 알고리즘의 입력자료로 필요한 재분석자료(reanalysis)의 영향성을 평가하기 위하여 두 가지의 재분석자료, 즉 fifth generation of European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts reanalysis of the global climate and weather (ERA5)와 Modern-Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications-2 (MERRA-2)를 사용하였고, 복사전달모델은 MODerate resolution atmospheric TRANsmission (MODTRAN)을 사용하였다. MODTRAN 모의와 온도 추정 정확도 검증에 사용되는 현장 관측 수온은 한반도 인근 해역에 위치한 해양 기상 부이(buoy)로부터 획득했다. 실험 결과, 알고리즘 불확도는 대기 수증기량에 따라서 선형에 가깝게 증가하는 것을 확인하였고, 가장 건조한 조건에서는 약 0.35K 그리고 평균적으로 0.45K 가량의 불확도가 발생함을 확인하였다. 이러한 결과는 재분석자료의 종류에 상관없이 유사하게 도출되어 알고리즘이 가지는 순수한 불확도라고 추정할 수 있었다.

  • In this study, a new thin films passivation technique using Zn with high electronegativity and $MgF_2$, a fluorine material with better optical transmittance than the sealing film materials that have thus far been reported was proposed. Targets with various ratios of $MgF_2$ to Zn (5:5, 4:6 and 3:7) were fabricated to control the amount of Zn in the passivation films. The Mg-Zn-F films were deposited onto the substrates and Zn was located in the gap between the lattices of $MgF_2$ without chemical metathesis in the Mg-Zn-F films. The thickness and optical transmittance of the deposited passivation films were approximately 200 nm and 80%, respectively. It was confirmed via electron dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) analysis that the Zn content of the film that was sputtered using a 4:6 ratio target was 9.84 wt%. The Zn contents of the films made from the 5:5 and 3:7 ratio targets were 2.07 and 5.01 wt%, respectively. The water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) was determined to be $38^{\circ}C$, RH 90-100%. The WVTR of the Mg-Zn-F film that was deposited with a 4:6 ratio target nearly reached the limit of the equipment, $1\times10^{-3}\;gm^2{\cdot}day$. As the Zn portion increased, the packing density also increased, and it was found that the passivation films effectively prevented the permeation by either oxygen or water vapor. To measure the characteristics of gas barrier, the film was applied to the emitting device to evaluate their lifetime. The lifetime of the applied device with passivation was increased to 25 times that of the PLED device, which was non-passivated.

  • 폴리비닐알코올(PVA)을 증류수를 사용하여 용액으로 만든 후, 소수성을 가지는 비닐트리에톡시실란(VTEOS)을 이용하여 개질하였다. 실란으로 개질된 PVA 용액에 폴리아크릴산(PAA)을 함량별로 넣어 제조하였다. 다양한 PAA 함량에 따라 제조된 필름으로 열적-기계적 성질, 접촉각, 수분 투과율, 산소 투과율을 측정하였다. 필름의 유리 전이 온도는 비닐트리에톡시실란으로 개질한 경우 약간 높아졌으나, PAA의 함량에 따른 변화는 크게 나타나지 않았다. 비닐트리에톡시실란으로 개질된 PVA/ PAA 필름의 인장 강도는 9.48~10.72 $kg/mm^2$으로 PVA와 큰 차이가 나지 않았다. 비닐트리에톡시실란으로 개질된 PVA와 PAA의 비율이 90/10인 필름의 경우 팽윤도 198%, 용해도 10%로 측정되어 PVA에 비하여 내수성이 개선되었음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 비닐트리에톡시실란으로 개질된 PVA와 PAA의 비율이 90/10인 필름(두께 2.5 ${\mu}m$)을 PET 필름(두께 50 ${\mu}m$) 위에 코팅하여 제조된 필름의 수분 투과율과 산소 투과율은 각각 11.04 $g/m^2/day$와 3.1 $cc/m^2/day$로 측정되었다.

  • 유기전자재료의 발전으로 박막화, 유연화, 경량화가 가능하면서, 저가의 생산비용으로 제조 될 수 있는 유기반도체의 개발 및 상용화에 대한 연구가 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 하지만, 유기반도체를 구성하는 유기재료 및 전극재료가 미량의 수분과 반응으로 성능이 저하되는 문제로 상용화의 큰 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 따라서 유기재료 및 전극을 동작환경의 수분으로부터 보호할 수 있는 고성능 투습 방지막 개발에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $SiO_x$/parylene 및 $SiN_x$/parylene 구조를 이용한 다중 구조의 고성능 박막 봉지막을 개발하고, 개발된 박막을 Ca-corrosion test를 이용하여 수분투과율을 측정하였다. 또한 박막 봉지재를 유기태양전지에 적용하여 유기태양전지의 수명과 투습특성과의 관계를 확인하였다.

  • Aluminum oxide ($Al_2O_3$) thin films were grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using a new Al metalorganic precursor, dimethyl aluminum sec-butoxide ($C_{12}H_{30}Al_2O_2$), and water vapor ($H_2O$) as the reactant at deposition temperatures ranging from 150 to $300^{\circ}C$. The ALD process showed typical self-limited film growth with precursor and reactant pulsing time at $250^{\circ}C$; the growth rate was 0.095 nm/cycle, with no incubation cycle. This is relatively lower and more controllable than the growth rate in the typical $ALD-Al_2O_3$ process, which uses trimethyl aluminum (TMA) and shows a growth rate of 0.11 nm/cycle. The as-deposited $ALD-Al_2O_3$ film was amorphous; X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy confirmed that its amorphous state was maintained even after annealing at $1000^{\circ}C$. The refractive index of the $ALD-Al_2O_3$ films ranged from 1.45 to 1.67; these values were dependent on the deposition temperature. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed that the $ALD-Al_2O_3$ films deposited at $250^{\circ}C$ were stoichiometric, with no carbon impurity. The step coverage of the $ALD-Al_2O_3$ film was perfect, at approximately 100%, at the dual trench structure, with an aspect ratio of approximately 6.3 (top opening size of 40 nm). With capacitance-voltage measurements of the $Al/ALD-Al_2O_3/p-Si$ structure, the dielectric constant of the $ALD-Al_2O_3$ films deposited at $250^{\circ}C$ was determined to be ~8.1, with a leakage current density on the order of $10^{-8}A/cm^2$ at 1 V.
