We fabricated the 4 channel wave function generator with variable frequency, pulse width, amplitude and rising/falling slope to develop driving method of charged particle type display. The selective sell driving is ascertained by fabricated panel with black and yellow particles. To measure CIE point, reflectivity, contrast ratio and viewing angle, experimental apparatus is integrated with optical circular$(1^{\circ})$ moving emitting/receiving part and spectrometer connected to emitting part. The yellow particles in glass have reflectivity of $35{\sim}40%$ and wavelength of 571.2nm and black one has reflectivity of $15{\sim}20%$ in case of only 1 layer of particle, and the case of 3 layer the optical property is promoted.

All-optical data extraction, one of the key technologies for all-optical computing and optical communication to perform add-drop, packet switching, and data reset, etc., is experimentally demonstrated by using cross-gain modulation (XGM) of semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs). Also, all-optical data extraction based on numerical simulation is performed by using the VPI simulation tool. In this paper, the suggested optical system based on SOAs shows the potential for high speed, and highly integrable and low power optical data computing.

그래핀은 차세대 2차원 물질로서 지금까지 활발히 연구되어 왔으나 밴드갭이 없기 때문에 전자소자로서의 응용이 매우 제한적이다. 최근에 그래핀을 대체할 수 있는 물질로서 Transition Metal Dichalcogenides (TMDs)가 주목을 받고 있다. 특히, TMDs 중에서 $MoS_2$는 bulk일 때 indirect한 1.2 eV인 밴드 갭을 갖고 있으나, layer가 줄어들면서 direct한 1.8 eV인 밴드갭을 가진다. 국내외 여러 연구 그룹에서 $MoS_2$를 이용하여 제작한 Field Effect Transistor (FET)는 high-$\small{K}$ gate가 산입되지 않은 경우에 on-off ratio와 mobility가 각각 $10^6$와 약 $3cm^2/Vs$로 나타나고 있다. 이와 같이 아주 우수한 전기적, 광학적 특성을 갖는 소자 응용성을 가지고 있다. 최근까지의 연구결과들은 대부분 mechanical exfoliation method (MEM) 로 제작된 $MoS_2$ monolayer를 이용하였으나, 이 방법은 large scale 및 layer controllable에는 적합하지 않다. 본 연구에서는 대면적의 집적회로 응용에 적합한 chemical vapor deposition법을 이용하여 $MoS_2$를 성장하였다. 높은 결정성을 위해 sulphur (powder purity 99.99%)와 molybdenum trioxide(powder purity 99.9%)를 이용하고, Ar 가스 분위기에서 sulphur powder 및 molybdenum trioxide powder를 각각 $130^{\circ}C$ 및 $1000^{\circ}C$로 유지하며 $MoS_2$ 박막을 성장하였다. 성장된 $MoS_2$ 박막은 Atomic force Microscopy (AFM)을 통해 박막의 단차와 roughness을 확인하였다. 또한, X-ray Diffraction (XRD) pattern 분석으로 박막의 결정성을 확인하였으며, Raman Spectroscopy, X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Photoluminescence (PL) 측정으로 광학적 특성을 분석하였다.

A novel interferometric isolator has been proposed and designed to fabrticate waveguide magnetooptic isolator operating at a wavelength of $1.55{\cal}um$. The device consists of MMI (multimode interference) couplers and has a magnetooptic guiding layer with different layer structure in arms of the inteferometer. The layer structures in the arms of inteferometer are $HfO_2/CeY_2Fe_5O_{12}/NOG$ and $SiO_2/CeY_2Fe_5O_{12}/NOG$, respectively. This configuration give rise to different nonreciprocal phase shift. In consequence, the isolator operates under a unidirectional magnetic field. The optimized structure of the isolator was determined by a 3D beam propagation method.

A triplexer based on a silica planar lightwave circuit Mach-Zehnder nterferometer(MZI) is proposed and its characteristics are analyzed through simulations. To separate 1310 nm band and $1480{\sim}1560nm$ band properly, the path length difference of an MZI is set to be the multiple and half of the wavelength 1310 nm and the balance of the directional coupler is optimized in the $1480{\sim}1560nm$ band. The same MZI is additionally cascaded to provide good crosstalk characteristics. The 1490 nm band and 1550 nm band are further separated using additional two stage MZI's. A three-dimensional BPM and transfer matrix method analysis predicts the low crosstalk characteristics and the fabrication-error-tolerance of the proposed triplexer.

By incorporating large core polymer waveguides, which have been developed for increased alignment tolerance in passive fiber attachment, highly efficient variable optical attenuators are proposed. In order to find optimum device structures, 3-dimensional beam propagation method (BPM) simulations are performed. Heat distribution over the polymer film is calculated to find the 3-dimensional index profile data for the BPM simulation. Due to the small index contrast between the core and cladding materials in the large core waveguide, heat-induced radiation occurs for small heating power. While the ordinary VOA needs the temperature to change over $150^{\circ}C$ for 20 dB attenuation, the large core VOA requires only $70^{\circ}C$. In addition to the merit of passive fiber attachment, the proposed VOA has enhanced attenuation efficiency for the lower temperature change.

A time-domain modeling approach is used to study characteristics of a widely tunable coupled-ring reflector (CRR) laser diode(LD). The CRR consists of a bus waveguide and two coupled ring resonators coupled to the bus without resorting to distributed Bragg grating structure. The tuning range can be a few tens of nanometers with a side mode suppression ratio exceeding 35dB through the adjustment of currents into the phase control sections in the rings. The CRR laser diode has long effective cavity length compared to conventional laser diodes. Accordingly, a broad additional resonance peak in the amplitude modulation characteristics is observed between 20 to 30 GHz, implying the extension of amplitude modulation bandwidth.

A widely tunable add/drop filter composed of double ring resonators is implemented with high-index-contrast polymer waveguide. To enhance the productivity, directional couplers are designed to have good fabrication tolerance. The refractive indices of the core and cladding in the 1550 nm wavelength are 1.51 and 1.378, respectively. Drop response in comparison with neighborhood peak gets enhanced by more than 2.9 dB at the wavelength where both rings resonate. This filter can be used to build widely tunable laser diode through hybrid-integration with reflective SOA.

산화물 반도체는 넓은 밴드갭을 가지고 있어 가시광에서 투명하며 높은 이동도로 디스플레이 구동 회로 집적에 유리하다. 또한 가격 및 공정 측면에서도 기존의 Si 기판 소자에 비해 여러 장점을 가지고 있어 차세대 디스플레이의 핵심 기술로 산화물반도체에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 본 연구는 RF 동시 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 Zn-Sn-O 박막을 제조하고, 그 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 특성에 대해 조사하였다. 일정한 증착 온도($100^{\circ}C$)에서 ZnO와 $SnO_2$ 타켓의 인가 파워를 조절하여 Sn/(Zn+Sn) 성분비가 약 40~85%인 Zn-Sn-O 박막을 제조하였다. Sn 함량이 증가할수록 박막의 비저항은 약 $2{\times}10^{-1}$ (Sn 45%)에서 약 $2\;{\times}\;10^{-2}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (Sn 67%)까지 감소하다가 다시 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 이 때 캐리어 농도는 $3\;{\times}\;10^{18}$에서 $4\;{\times}\;10^{19}\;cm^{-3}$으로 증가하였으며, 이동도는 11에서 $8\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$로 약간 감소하였다. XRD분석결과, 제조된 모든 Zn-Sn-O 박막은 비정질 구조를 가짐을 확인하였다. 투과율은 박막 내 Sn함량 증가에 따라 감소하나 모든 시편이 약 70%이상의 투과도를 나타내었다. Zn-Sn-O 박막의 Ga 도핑 영향을 확인하기 위해 ZnO 타켓 대신 갈륨이 5.7 wt.% 도핑된 GZO 타켓을 사용하여 동일한 공정조건에서 박막을 제조하였다. Ga이 첨가된 Zn-Sn-O 박막은 구조적 특성과 광학적 특성에서는 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, 전기적 특성의 뚜렷한 변화가 관찰되었다. Sn 함량이 45%인 Zn-Sn-O 박막의 경우, 캐리어 농도가 $3.1\;{\times}\;10^{18}$에서 Ga 도핑 효과로 인해 $1.7\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$으로 크게 감소하고 이동도는 11에서 $20\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$로 증가하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 Zn-Sn-O 비정질 박막에 Ga을 도핑함으로써 산화물 반도체재료로서 요구되는 물성을 만족시킬 수 있다는 가능성을 제시하였다.

In this study, we propose the structure of color glass for BIPV (Building Integrated Photovoltaic System) and develop process technology to realize it. It was verified through computer simulation based on wave optics that two different kinds of metal oxide thin films with different refractive indices could be integrated to realize different colors with good transmittance. To fabricate the structure, we used RF Magnetron deposition method to achieve the target thickness uniformly. The optical analysis of the samples was carried our by comparing with the results of computer simulations and it was found that this technique can be stably implemented on lab scale. The stability test over weeks was confirmed at room temperature. This method is expected to be very useful in BIPV buildings.
