In this paper, it was demonstrated that organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) were fabricated with the organic passivation layer by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) processing, In order to form polymeric film as an passivation layer, VDP process was also introduced instead of spin-coating process, where polymeric film was co-deposited by high-vacuum thermal evaporation from 6FDA and ODA followed by curing, Field effect mobility, threshold voltage, and on-off current ratio with 450-nm-thick organic passivation layer were about $0.21\;cm^2/Vs$, IV, and $1\;{\times}\;10^5$, respectively.

The preparation and characteristics of ITO anode films grown using a linear facing target sputtering (FTS) technique for use in organic light emitting diodes (OLED) and flexible OLED is described. The electrical, optical, and work function of the ITO anode, which was prepared by linear FTS at room temperature, were comparable to those of commercial ITO anode films. In particular, linear FTS-grown ITO films shows very smooth surface without defects such as pin hole and cracks due to low substrate temperature. Furthermore OLED with the linear FTS-grown ITO anode film shows comparable electrical and optical properties to those of OLED with the commercial crystalline-ITO anode film. This suggested that linear FTS is promising thin film technology for preparing high quality anode film in OLEDs and flexible OLEDs.

태양광 에너지는 인류의 미래 에너지로서 이미 그 효용성을 전 세계에 드러내고 있다. 각 나라마다 자국의 에너지 전략 및 일조량등 환경적 여건 또는 경제적 수준에 따라 다양한 에너지 수급의 양태를 띠고 있지만 향 후 한세대 내에 전세계 에너지의 30% 정도를 태양에너지로 공급받게 될 것으로 기대하고 있다. 이러한 추세 속에서 태양광 에너지의 방식도 여건에 따라 다양한 형태들이 상호 경쟁과 보완의 과정을 거치며 꾸준히 연구 개발되어오고 있다. 집광형 태양전지는 그 중에서 광전변환효율의 관점에서 41%라는 경이적인 기록을 가지고 있으며 매년 평균 1% 씩의 발전을 꾸준히 달성해 오고 있다. 특히 화합물반도체 태양전지의 경우 1900년대 후반부터 인공위성등의 에너지 모듈로 독자적인 시장을 형성하고 있었지만 경제성등의 이유로 지상 에너지의 대안으로 고려되지 못하고 있었으나 집광시 효율이 높아지는 특이현상과 다중접합을 통한 태양에너지 스펙트럼의 흡수영역 확대등을 통하여 총체적인 효율이 30%를 넘어서면서부터 서서히 대전력 에너지원으로 주목을 받기 시작하였다. 이러한 기술적 경쟁력에도 불구하고 전세계 태양전지 시장의 대부분은 단결정 실리콘 태양전지가 차지하고 있으며 박막형 태양전지 혹은 유기태양전지등 차세대 태양전지 또한 기존의 단결정 실리콘 태양전지를 기준으로 상대적인 가격경쟁력을 높이므로서 기존시장을 잠식하거나 신규시장을 통하여 점유율을 높이는 전략을 고려하고 있다. 본 세미나를 통하여 현재 화합물반도체 집광형 태양전지 시장을 살펴보고 시장 진입의 걸림돌에 대한 분석과 향 후 동향에 대하여 논의하도록 한다.

오늘날 유기고분자기반 태양전지는 다른 태양전지와 비교될 정도로 낮은 광변환효율로 인해 효율향 상을 위한 많은 연구들이 진행되어 왔다. 그중 패터닝을 통한 광포집률과 charge carrier 수집효율이 증가되었다는 많은 보고들이 있었다. 따라서 우리는 200~1,400 nm polystyrene bead를 합성하여 air-liquid interfacial 방법을 이용해 2차원 육방조밀구조를 갖는 template를 형성하고 Nanosphere lithography (NSL)를 이용하여 대면적으로 균일한 poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS)를 패턴화하였다. 균일한 패턴형성을 측정하기위해 Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), image를 얻었으며, Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)를 통해 형성된 패턴의 낙차 높이를 얻었고, Near IR-UV-Vis을 통해 bead size 변화에따라 얻어진 PEDOT:PSS 패턴의 반사율을 측 정하였다.

The polyimide(PI) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) ultra thin films were prepared by imidizing the PAAS LB films of PMDA and benzidine system with a thermal treatment at $250^{\circ}C$ for 30min, where the PAAS LB films were formed on substrates by using LB technique. The thicknesses of one layer of PAAS and PI LB film that deposited at the surface pressure of 27mN/m were 20.9 and 4A, respectively. At low electric field, ohmic conduction($I^{\propto}$ V) was observed and the calculated electrical conductivity was about $4.23{\times}10^{-15}{\sim}9.81{\times}10^{-15}S/cm$. The dielectric constant of LB film was about 7.0.

Organic semiconductors based on conjugated thiophene oligomer have great potential to be utilized as an active layer for electronic and optoelectronic devices. In this study, a conjugated oligomer such as ${\alpha}$-sexithiophene (${\alpha}$-6T) thin films was prepared by the Organic Molecular Beam Deposition (OMBD), and various electrode materials were also deposited by a simple vacuum evaporation, respectively. Those films were photolithographically patterned for the electrical measurements. Electrical charact-erization of the thin film transistor with various channel length were executed and the field effect mobility of these thin film transistors were also calculated by the formula using the experimental data.

Monolayers of lipids on a water surface have attracted much interest as models of biological membranes, but also as precursors of multilayer systems premising many technical applications. Until now, many methodologies have been developed in order to gain a better understand. Photoisomerization in monolayers of a novel azobenzene compound, azobenzene dendrimer, was investigated for the first time by means of the absorption spectrum and Maxwell displacement current (MDC) technique. Dendrimers are well-defined macromolecules exhibiting a tree-like structure, first derived by the cascade molecule approach. According to the absorption spectrum, trans-to-cis conversion ratio was estimated to the third generation of azobenzene dendrimer deposited onto a glass substrate. Temperature-dependent induced charge with trans-cis isomerization was also measured by means of MDC technique.

In this study, we have shown the power conversion efficiency of organic thin film photovoltaic devices utilizing a conjugated polymer/fullerene bulk-hetero junction structure. We use MDMO-PPV(Poly[2-methoxy-5-(3,7-dimethyloctyloxy -1,4-phenylenevinylene) as an electron donor, PCBM([6,6]-Phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester) as an electron accepter, and PEDOT:PSS used as a HTL(Hole Transport Layer). We have fabricated OPV(Organic Photovoltaic) devices as a function of the MDMO-PPV/PCBM concentration from 1:1 to 1:5. The electrical characteristics of the fabricated devices were investigated by means of I-V, P-V, F·F(Fill Factor) and PCE(power conversion efficiency). The power conversion efficiency was gradually increased until 1:4 ratio, also the highest efficiency of 0.4996% was obtained at the ratio.

In this study, we prepared OLED cell with ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) films grown on the glass substrate by facing targets sputtering. Before fabrication of OLED cells, we investigated properties of ITO films deposited at various sputtering conditions. To investigate properties of as-prepared films, we employed four-point probe, UV-VIS spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), hall-effect measurement. As a results, as-prepared ITO films have high transmittance of over 85 % in the visible range (300-800 nm) and a resistivity of under $10^{-4}$ (${\Omega}-cm$). Their resistivity increased as a function of oxygen gas flow and substrate temperature. OLED cell with ITO films were fabricated by thermal evpoeartor. Properties of OLEDs cell referring to properties of ITO films.

A copper tetracumylphenoxy phthalocyanine (CuPccp) thin film was formed on an organic insulator film by Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) deposition for gas sensor fabrication. To increase the reproducibility of film transfer, stearyl alcohol was used as a transfer promoter. The structural properties of the CuPccp layers were optically monitored through attenuated total reflection and polarization-modulated ellipsometry techniques. The average thickness of a single layer of the CuPccp LB film was measured to be 2.5 nm. Despite the role of the transfer promoter, the stability of the layer transfer was not sufficient to ensure homogeneity of the LB film. This was probably due to the presence of aggregates in the molecular structure of the CuPccp LB film. Nevertheless, copper phthalocyanine polymorphism can be greatly suppressed by the LB arrangement, which appears to contribute to the improvement of electrical conductivity. The p-type semiconductor characteristics were confirmed by Hall measurements from the CuPccp LB films.
