ZnO는 광학적 및 전기적 성질의 여러 가지 장점 때문에 메모리, 나노발전기, 트랜지스터, 태양전지, 광탐지기 및 레이저와 같은 전자소자 및 광소자로 여러 분야에서 다양하게 사용되고 있다. Al이 도핑된 ZnO 나노결정체를 전기화학적 증착법을 이용하여 형성하고, 형성시간의 변화에 따른 구조적 및 광학적 성질을 관찰했다. ITO로 코팅된 유리 기판에 전기화학증착법을 이용해 Al 도핑된 ZnO를 성장시켰다. Sputtering, pulsed laser vapor deposition, 화학기상증착, atomic layer epitaxy, 전자빔증발법 등으로 Al 도핑된 ZnO 나노구조를 형성할 수 있지만, 본 연구에서는 간단한 공정과정, 저온증착, 고속, 저가의 특성 등으로 경제적인 면에서 효율적인 전기화학증착법을 이용했다. 반복실험을 통하여 Al의 도핑 농도는 Zn와 Al의 비율이 98:2이 되도록, ITO 양극과 Pt 음극의 전위차가 -2.25 V가 되도록 실험조건을 고정했고, 성장시간을 각각 1분, 5분, 10분으로 변화하였다. 주사전자현미경 사진을 보면 Al 도핑된 ZnO는 성장 시간이 증가함에 따라 나노구조의 직경이 커지는 것을 알 수 있다. 광루미네센스 측정 결과는 산소 공핍의 증가로 보이는 500~600 nm대의 파장에서 나타난 피크의 위치가 에너지가 큰 쪽으로 증가했다. 위 결과로부터 성장 시간에 따른 Al 도핑된 ZnO의 구조적 및 광학적 특성변화를 관찰했고, 이 연구 결과는 Al 도핑된 ZnO 나노구조 기반 전자소자 및 광소자에 응용 가능성을 보여주고 있다.

섬유제품은 대부분은 흡수성 또는 흡유성을 가지고 있어 물이나 기름이 등을 쉽게 흡수하는 성질이 있다. 이러한 성질 때문에 물이나 기름 등의 접촉에 의한 얼룩과 오염이 잘 되는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해소하기 위하여 원단에 대한 발수, 발유, 방오가공 등이 연구되어 왔으며 섬유의 고유한 화학적, 기계적 물성을 유지하면서 표면과 이면이 다른 특성을 가지도록 유도하여 기능성을 부여하는 편면가공을 주목을 받게 되었다. 본 연구에서는 불소계로 발수처리 된 PET직물에 저온 Plasma와 Sputter을 이용하여 직물의 한쪽 면에는 친수성과 다른 면에는 발수성이 동시에 나타나는 편발수에 관한 실험을 했다. 불소계로 발수처리 된 시료와 저온 Plasma처리된 시료와 Sputter처리된 시료(처리면, 미처리면)를 접촉각 5회 측정하여 평균값을 나타냈다. 발수처리 된 시료의 평균 접촉각 값은 $149^{\circ}$이며, 저온 Plasma의 평균값은 $45^{\circ}$(처리면) $128^{\circ}$(미처리면), Sputter는 $74^{\circ}$(처리면) $144^{\circ}$(미처리면) 으로 가공처리 된 시료에는 양면의 접촉각이 확연한 차이가 나타난 걸로 미루어 보아 편면발수효과가 얻어졌다고 판단된다. SEM 측정을 통하여 관찰한 경우, 발수처리 된 시료에서는 불소계 발수제의 흔적이 보였다. 저온 Plasma, Sputter 처리된 시료에서는 처리시간이 높아짐에 따라서 시료표면에 코팅된 불소계 발수제 막들이 점점 파괴되는 것을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그리고 건식가공으로 인하여 처리된 표면에는 Etching작용이 일어나 표면적이 넓어져 친수화가 일어난 것으로 생각된다. 이처럼 저온 Plasma가공과 Sputter가공으로 편발수를 얻을 수 있다면 에너지 절약, 처리공정과 시간단축 등 여러 가지 장점이 기대된다.

Vanadium Dioxide has been investigated for use as a "spectrally-selective" window coating to block infrared transmission and reduce the loss of building interior heat through windows. The preparation of thermochromic $VO_2$ powder by the reductive reaction with hydrogen was studied. The reductive reaction method has many advantages of easy and mass production of $VO_2$ powder according to controlled reaction without semi-conductor equipments like sputter and beam evaporator. The reaction temperature, time, concentration of reductive gas, post-annealing condition and W addition as dopant would affect the characterization of $VO_2$ powder and its thermochromism. Many applications for electrical device and energy-saving technologies is expected.

In this study, the formation, microstructure, and wear properties of Colmonoy 88 (Ni-17W-15Cr-3B-4Si wt.%) + Stellite 1 (Co-32Cr-17W wt.%) coating layers fabricated by high-velocity oxygen fuel (HVOF) spraying are investigated. Colmonoy 88 and Stellite 1 powders were mixed at a ratio of 1:0 and 5:5 vol.%. HVOF sprayed self-fluxing composite coating layers were fabricated using the mixed powder feedstocks. The microstructures and wear properties of the composite coating layers are controlled via a high-frequency heat treatment. The two coating layers are composed of ${\gamma}-Ni$, $Ni_3B$, $W_2B$, and $Cr_{23}C_6$ phases. Co peaks are detected after the addition of Stellite 1 powder. Moreover, the WCrB2 hard phase is detected in all coating layers after the high-frequency heat treatment. Porosities were changed from 0.44% (Colmonoy 88) to 3.89% (Colmonoy 88 + ST#1) as the content of Stellite 1 powder increased. And porosity is denoted as 0.3% or less by inducing high-frequency heat treatment. The wear results confirm that the wear property significantly improves after the high-frequency heat treatment, because of the presence of well-controlled defects in the coating layers. The wear surfaces of the coated layers are observed and a wear mechanism for the Ni-based self-fluxing composite coating layers is proposed.

The technique of producing thin film plays a crucial role in modern science and technology as well as in industrial purposes. Numerous efforts have been made to get high quality thin film through surface treatment of materials. PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) and CVD (Chemical Vapor Deposition) are two of the most popular deposition techniques used in both scientific study and industrial use. It is well known that the film deposited by PVD and CVD commonly possesses a columnar microstructure which affects many film properties. In recent years, various types of deposition sources which feature high material uses and excellent film properties have been developed. Electromagnetic levitation source appeared as an alternative deposition source to realize high deposition rate for industrial use. Complex film structures such as nano multilayer and multi-components have been prepared to achieve better film properties. Glancing angle deposition (GLAD) has also been developed as a technique to engineer the columnar structure of thin films on the micro- and nanoscale. In this paper, the trends and major issues of thin film technology based on PVD and CVD have been discussed together with the prospect of thin film technology.

In this research, we proceeded with research on plasma resistance of the cleaning process of APS(Atmospheric Plasma Spray)-Y₂O₃ coated parts used for semiconductor and display plasma process equipment. CF₄, O₂, and Ar mixed gas were used for the plasma environment, and respective alconox, surfactant, and piranha solution was used for the cleaning process. After APS-Y₂O₃ was exposed to CF₄ plasma, the surface changed from Y₂O₃ to YF₃ and a large amount of carbon was deposited. For this reason, the plasma corrosion resistance was lowered and contamination particles were generated. We performed a cleaning process to remove the defect-inducing surface YF₃ layer and carbon layer. Among three cleaning solutions, the piranha cleaning process had the highest detergency and the alconox cleaning process had the lowest detergency. Such results could be confirmed through the etching amount, morphology, composition, and accumulated contamination particle analysis results. Piranha cleaning process showed the highest detergency, but due to the very large thickness reduction, the base metal was exposed and a large number of contaminated particles were generated. In contrast, the surfactant cleaning process exhibit excellent properties in terms of surface detergency, etching amount, and accumulated contamination particle analysis.

This study examines paraelectric $Bi_{1.5}Zn_{1.0}Nb_{1.5}O_7$ (BZN), which has no hysteresis and high dielectric strength, for energy density capacitor applications. To increase the breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film further, poly(vinylidene fluoride) BZN-PVDF composite film is fabricated by aerosol deposition. The volume ratio of each composition is calculated using dielectric constant of each composition, and we find that it was 12:88 vol% (BZN:PVDF). To modulate the structure and dielectric properties of the ferroelectric polymer PVDF, the composite film is heat-treated at $200^{\circ}C$ for 5 and 30 minutes following quenching. The amount of ${\alpha}-phase$ in the PVDF increases with an increasing annealing time, which in turn decreases the dielectric constant and dielectric loss. The breakdown dielectric strength of the BZN film increases by mixing PVDF. However, the breakdown field decreases with an increasing annealing time. The BZN-PVDF composite film has the energy density of $4.9J/cm^3$, which is larger than that of the pure BZN film of $3.6J/cm^3$.

A Si chip with the Cu/Au bumps of $100-{\mu}m$ diameter was flip-chip bonded using different anisotropic conductive adhesives (ACAs) onto the local stiffness-variant stretchable substrate consisting of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and flexible printed circuit board (FPCB). The average contact resistances of the flip-chip joints processed with ACAs containing different conductive particles were evaluated and compared. The specimen, which was flip-chip bonded using the ACA with Au-coated polymer balls as conductive particles, exhibited a contact resistance of $43.2m{\Omega}$. The contact resistance of the Si chip, which was flip-chip processed with the ACA containing SnBi solder particles, was measured as $36.2m{\Omega}$, On the contrary, an electric open occurred for the sample bonded using the ACA with Ni particles, which was attributed to the formation of flip-chip joints without any entrapped Ni particles because of the least amount of Ni particles in the ACA.

Single crystals, which have complexed composition, are fabricated by solid state grain growth. However, it is hard to achieve stable properties in a single crystal due to trapped pores. Aerosol deposition (AD) is suitable for fabrication of single crystals with stable properties because this process can make a high density coating layer. Because of their unique features (nano sized grains, stress inner site), it is hard to fabricate single crystals, and so studies of grain growth behavior of AD film are essential. In this study, a $BaTiO_3$ coating layer with ${\sim}9{\mu}m$ thickness is fabricated using an aerosol deposition method on (100) and (110) cut $SrTiO_3$ single crystal substrates, which are adopted as seeds for grain growth. Each specimen is heat-treated at various conditions (900, 1,100, and $1,300^{\circ}C$ for 5 h). $BaTiO_3$ layer shows different growth behavior and X-ray diffraction depending on cutting direction of $SrTiO_3$ seed. Rectangular pillars at $SrTiO_3$ (100) and laminating thin plates at $SrTiO_3$ (110), respectively, are observed.

A potentiometric sodium-ion (Na⁺) sensor was prepared using a screen-printing process with carbon and silver inks. The two-electrode configuration of the sensor resulted in potential differences in Na⁺ solutions according to Nernstian equation. The obtained Na⁺-sensor exhibited an ideal Nernstian sensitivity, fast response time, and low limit of detection. The Nernstian response was stable when the sensor was tested for repeatability and long-term durability. The Na⁺-selective membrane coated onto the carbon electrode selectively passed sodium ions against interfering ions, indicating an excellent selectivity. The portable Na⁺-sensor was finally fabricated using a printed circuit system, demonstrating the successful measurements of Na⁺ concentrations in various real samples.
