유기물을 이용하여 제작한 비휘발성 메모리 소자는 저전력으로 구동하고 공정이 간단할 뿐만아니라 구부림이 가능한 소자를 만들 수 있다는 장점 때문에 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 비록 다양한 유기물 나노 클러스터를 포함한 고분자 박막을 사용한 비휘발성 메모리 소자에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되었으나 [6,6]- phenyl-C85 butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM) 나노 클러스터가 고분자 박막에 분산되어 있는 메모리 소자의 휘어짐에 따른 전기적 특성의 변화에 대한 것은 연구되지 않았다. 본 연구에서는 스핀코팅 방법으로 PCBM 나노 클러스터가 polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) 박막에 분산되어 있는 소자를 제작하여 휘어짐에 따른 전기적 특성의 변화에 대한 관찰을 수행하였다. 소자를 제작하기 위해서 PCBM 나노 클러스터와 PMMA를 클로로벤젠에 용해시킨 후에 초음파 교반기를 사용하여 PCBM 나노 클러스터와 PMMA가 고르게 섞인 용액을 형성하였다. 전극이 되는 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) 유리기판 위에 PCBM 나노 클러스터와 PMMA가 섞인 용액을 스핀 코팅하고, 열을 가해 용매를 제거하여 PCBM 나노 클러스터가 PMMA에 분산되어 있는 박막을 형성하였다. PCBM 나노 클러스터가 분산된 PMMA 박막 위에 Al을 상부전극으로 열증착하여 메모리 소자를 완성하였다. 제작한 소자의 휘어짐에 따른 전기적 특성을 알아보기 위해서 10 mm 의 반지름을 갖는 휘어진 홀더를 제작 한 후에 소자를 구부리기 전과 후의 전류-전압 (I-V)을 각각 측정하였다. 또한 소자의 휘어짐에 따른 포획된 전하유지능력과 안정성을 알아보기 위해 $1{\times}105$번의 반복적인 읽기 전압을 가한 후 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. 실험 결과들을 토대로 메모리 소자의 휘어짐에 따른 전기적 특성 변화에 대해서 분석하고 그 원인에 대해서 규명하였다.

Nanocomposite of Te doped $SiO_2$ films was prepared for the new functional materials like non-linear optic materials, selective absorption and transmission films. The effects of particle size and morphology with different hydrolysis conditions on the properties were examined with TGA/DTA. XRD. UV-spectrometer, SPM, SEM and EDS. It was found that Te/$SiO_2$ films showed high absorption peak at 550nm visible region by plasma resonance of Te fine particles. The Rm surface roughness of the films was about 2.5 nm and the size of Te particles was 5~10nm.

Effects of annealing temperature on the crystalline and magnetic properties of YIG films grown by solid phase epitaxy. The eptiaxy films were made by annealing Fe-Y-O amorphous films in the air at 550-1050 $^{\circ}C$ which were sputtered on GGG (111) substrates in a conventional rf sputtering system. Crystallization temperature of Fe-Y-O amorphous films on GGG (111) substrate was between 600 and 650 $^{\circ}C$ which is much lower than that Fe-Y-O powder prepared by sol-gel method. Excellent epitaxial growth of YIG films could be conformed by the facts that the diffraction intensity of YIG (888) plane was comparable with that of GGG (888) plane and full width at half maximum of YIG (888) rocking curve was smaller than 0.14$^{\circ}$ when films were annealed at 1050 $^{\circ}C$. It could be seen that it is necessary to anneal the films at higher temperature for an excellent epitaxy because lattice parameter of YIG films were smaller and the peak of YIG (888) plane is higher and narrower with increasing annealing temperature. Films annealed at higher temperature shows M-H loop with perpendicular anisotropy which was due to 0.15％ lattice mismatch between YIG and GGG.

An in-plane thermoelectric sensor was processed on a glass substrate by evaporation of the n-type Bi-Te and p-type Sb-Te thin films, and its sensing characteristics were evaluated. The n-type Bi-Te thins film used to fabricate the inplane sensor exhibited a Seebeck coefficient of -165 ${\mu}V$/K and a power factor of $80{\times}10^{-4}W/K^2-m$. The p-type Sb-Te thin film used to fabricate the in-plane sensor exhibited a Seebeck coefficient of 142 ${\mu}V$/K and a power factor of $51.7{\times}10^{-4}W/K^2-m$. The in-plane thermoelectric sensor consisting of 15 pairs of the n-type Bi-Te and the p-type Sb-Te evaporated thin films exhibited a sensitivity of 2.8 mV/K.

1μm-CdS films for a window layer of CdS/CuInSe2 solar cell have been prepared by vacuum of 1x10-3 mTorr. Source and substrate temperature ranges were used 800-1100'C and 50-200℃ respectively. Structural, electircal and optical properties of CdS films have been investigated by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SSEM), electrical resistivity, the Hall measurement and optical transmission spectra. Electrical resistivity and optical transmission of the CdS films decreased with the increase in CdS source temperature without substrate heating. All the films had hexagonal structure and strong texture with (002) orientation of grain normal to the substrate glass. CdS films evaporated at 1000℃ were the highest electrical conductivity of 0.9(S/cm). Electrical resistivity and optical transmission at the substrate temperature of 100℃ were 40(Ω,cm) and 80% respectively.

Al-doped ZnO thin films were deposited with various Ar flow rate by RF magnetron sputtering, and theire properties were studied. A high-quality thin film was obtained by controlling the Ar flow rate, and the influence of the Ar flow rate on the Al-doped ZnO thin film was confirmed. In all Al-doped ZnO thin films, light transmittance had above 80%. Through Hall measurement and X-ray photoelectron spectrometer, the sample of 60 sccm, which had the lowest resistivity, showed the lower Al concentration. This result was attributed to oxygen vacancy rather than Al concentration.

TiO$_2$thin films were prepared on the glass by a conventional spin coating method with $TiO_2$ sol(30wt%, anatase). The thickness of the thin films were controlled by the number of coating cycles: one cycle is composed of spin coating, drying, and heating process. The reaction rate of the film was obtained by the photodecomposition of gaseous benzene under 0.44 and 2.0mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ UV light on the film surface. For an incident UV light intensity of 0.44mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the reaction rate was increased with the thickness of the film, caused by extent of surface area, but there was no change over the thickness of about 4$\mu\textrm{m}$. The porous $TiO_2$ thin film has comparatively vast effective surface area, which under relatively high-intensity UV illumination causes the reaction rate to be controlled by the film thickness.

The structural, electrical and chemical characteristics of Al alloy thin film with low impurity concentrations AlW deposited by using dc magnetron sputtering deposition are investigated for the applications as data bus line in the TFT-LCD panel. The deposited thin films show the decrease of resistivity and the increase of grain size after the RTA at $300^{\circ}C$ for 20 min.. Moreover, the resistivity of AlW does not show appreciable grain size dependence after RTA. It is concluded that the decrease of resistivity after RTA is due to the increase of grain size. The annealed AlW is found to be hillock free. And for investigating chemical attack in TFT-LCD etching processing the electric potential of AlW alloy for Ag/AgCl were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. When W wt.% of AlW alloy was higher than about 3%, the electric potential of AlW was more positive than ITO's. Therefore AlW alloy thin film can be propose to use for data bus line.

ITO thin films and gold (Au), copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) intermediate ITO multilayer (ITO/Au/ITO, ITO/Cu/ITO, ITO/Ni/ITO) films were deposited on glass substrates with a reactive radio frequency and direct current magnetron sputtering system and then the effect of intermediate metal layer and annealing temperature on the methanol gas sensitivity of ITO films were investigated. Although both ITO and ITO/metal/ITO (IMI) film sensors have the same total thickness of 100 nm, IMI sensors have a sandwich structure of ITO 50 nm/metal 10 nm/ITO 40 nm. The change in the gas sensitivity of the film sensors caused by methanol gas ranging from 100 to 1000 ppm was measured at room temperature. The IAI film sensors showed the higher sensitivity than the other sensors. Finally, it is concluded that the ITO 50/Au 10/ITO 40 nm film sensors hasthe potential to be used as improved methanol gas sensor.
