In this paper, we fabricated insulator thin films by plasma polymerization method for organic thin film transistor's insulator layer. For improving the electrical characteristics of organic transistor, we treated the semiconductor thin film with $O_2$ plasma. As results, the surface energy of organic transistor was increased from $38mJ/m^2$ to $72mJ/m^2$ and the mobility of organic transistor was increased $0.057cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$, that is increased 29% average ratio. Therefore, we have known that oragnic transistor's mobility can improve with plasma treatment of semiconductor thin film's surface.

This study was to evaluate the effects of several light curing units on the microleakage of composite resin restorations in primary teeth. The types of curing units were traditional low intensity halogen light(Optilux 360), plasma arc light(Filpo) low heat plasma arc light(Aurys) and high intensity LED(Freelight 2). After preparing cavities on sound primary teeth, cavities were filled with composite resin(Z100) using the same resin bond agent(Scotchbond Multi-Purpose) and were cured with each curing light system. After storing each specimen in sterile water for 24 hours, thermal circulation was done 1,000 times followed by pigmentation using 2% methylene blue solution. Each specimen was sliced and the degree of pigmentation was graded. When microleakage is graded, the average of Aurys was 0.95 which was the lowest and Freelight 2(1.05), Filpo(1.25), Optilux 360(1.30) followed. But values were not shown statistically significant difference (P>0.05). The results suggest that the newly developed curing units which has advantage in children by decreasing discomfort and procedure time can increase the microleakage of the composite resin.

The purpose of this study was to compare curing efficiency of newly developed curing units to traditional halogen curing unit by measuring thermal change and surface microhardness according to curing light system. Materials and mathods : The types of curing units were traditional low intensity halogen light(Optilux 360), plasma arc light(Flipo), low heat plasma arc light(Aurys), low intensity LED(Starlight), and high intensity LED(Freelight2). Temperature at the tip of light guide was measured by a digital thermometer using K-type thermocouple. And after resin was filled to 2, 3, 4mm teflon mold, bottom temperature measured during curing. After 24 hours, microhardness of top surface and bottom surface of each resin specimen were measured. Results : The result of this study can be summarized as follows, 1. As measuring temperature of curing unit tips, Flipo is the highest as $52.4^{\circ}C,\;Freelight2(37.86^{\circ}C),\;Optilux360(32.68^{\circ}C),\;Aurys(32.34^{\circ}C),\;and\;Starlight(26.14^{\circ}C)$ were followed. 2. Flipo and Freelight2 were the highest similarly and Optilux360 and Aurys were similarly next and Starlight was lowest in temperature of bottom surface of resin mold. 3. Microhardness of top surface were generally similar, and Aurys was relatively low. 4. Optilux 360 and Freelight2 were the highest, and Flipo, Starlight, and Aurys were followed in microhardness of bottom surface. Conclusions : The results suggest that careful use of Flipo and Freelight2 might be able to cure greater depth of resin composite and do not cause thermal problems than other curing units.

Silica for Epoxy Molding Compound (EMC) was coated via plasma-polymerization with RF plasma (13.56 MHz) as a function of treatment time, power and pressure. 1,3-diaminopropane, allylamine, pyrrole, 1,2-epoxy-5-hexene, allylmercaptan or allylalcohol were utilized for plasma polymerization coating and adhesion of coated silica was evaluated by measuring flexural strength. CTE and water absorption of EMC were also measured, and fracture surface of flexural specimen was analyzed by SEM in order to elucidate the failure mode. The plasma polymer coated silica was analyzed by FT-IR and reactivity of plasma polymer coating with epoxy resin was evaluated with DSC in order to investigate the adhesion mechanism. The EMC prepared from the silica coated with 1,3-diaminopropane or allylamine exhibited high flexural strength, low CTE, and low water absorption compared with the control sample, and also exhibited 100% cohesive failure mode. These results can be attributed to the chemical reaction between the functional groups in the plasma polymer coating and epoxy resin, and also consistent with the results from FT-IR and DSC analysis.

The objective of this study is to investigate optimum reaction conditions for the grafting of poly($N$-vinyl- 2-pyrrolidone) (PVP) onto the surface of plasma-treated polypropylene film. The plasma treatment conditions were fixed as 200 W rf power, 6 LPM Ar flow rate, 30 sec treatment time, and 5 min exposure time after treatment. For graft copolymerization, we investigated the change of grafting degree with respect to reaction time, reaction temperature and $N$-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone concentration. Maximum grafting degree was obtained at the conditions of 6 h reaction time, $90^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature, and 40% $N$-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone concentration. The introduction of PVP was confirmed by ATR-FTIR, XPS, and SEM analysis.

Glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) was used to introduce epoxy groups on the surface of polypropylene (PP) plate, used as a substrate, through plasma-induced graft copolymerization. Emulsion polymerization was applied for graft copolymerization of GMA and was compared with conventional solution polymerization to confirm its effect. Plasma treatment conditions under one atmospheric pressure were fixed as follows; the RF power of 200 W, the treatment time of 30 sec, the Ar gas flow rate of 6 LPM, and the exposure time of treated PP samples in air of 5 min. For graft-copolymerization, GMA concentration, reaction temperature, and reaction time was optimized to maximize the grafting degree of GMA. The maximum grafting degree of GMA was obtained at the condition of 12%-GMA concentration, $90^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature, and 5 hr-reaction time. Analysis results supported that the emulsion polymerization was more effective than the solution polymerization for grafting more GMAs on the surface of PP plate under the same reaction conditions.

본 연구에서는 플라즈마공중합(메틸메타아크릴레이트 + 스틸렌) 박막의 전기적 특성을 도전전류, 고전계전기전도기구, TSC, 등의 측정을 통하여 분석하였다. 박막의 도전전류는 진공중 열처리에 의해 감소되고 아르곤 플라즈마처리 및 산화에 의해 증가 하였다. 고전계전기전도기구는 전자성전도중 공간전하제한전류형과 잘 일치하였다. 열자극전류 특성에서 두개의 피크 P$_{1}$, P$_{2}$가 관측되었으며 이는 쌍극자의 탈분극에 의한 것으로 사료되며 열처리에 의해 열자극전류는 감소하였다.
