  • GZO/Ag/GZO 다층 투명 전도막은 투명 산화물 전극 사이에 빛이 투과할 수 있는 수준의 매우 얇은 금속을 삽입하여 낮은 면저항과 높은 투과율을 구현하는 기술로 금속의 유연성과 낮은 비저항, 산화물은 높은 투과도와 안정성을 동시에 이용할 수 있는 투명전도막이다. 본 연구에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터와 전자빔 증착을 이용하여 GZO 박막 사이에 Ag 박막을 삽입한 GZO/Ag/GZO 구조의 박막을 제작하였다. Ag 박막의 두께와 공정 압력이 박막에 미치는 영향을 연구하였으며, 급속 열처리에 따른 GZO/Ag/GZO 박막의 특성을 분석하였다. Ag 삽입 박막 두께와 GZO/Ag/GZO 박막의 열처리 온도 최적화를 통하여 $2.2{\times}10-5{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$의 가장 낮은 비저항과 88.9%의 투과율을 나타내었다.

  • A new viologen derivative namely 1,1'-bis(3,4-dihydroxybutyl)-[4,4'-bipyridine]-1,1'-diium bromide (V-Pr-2OH) was synthesized and applied as a cathode buffer layer to inverted polymer solar cells (PSCs) based on the blend of PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM$. PSCs with the structure of ITO/V-Pr-2OH/PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM/MoO_3/Ag$ as the cathode buffer layer showed the power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 7.28%, which is comparable to that of the PSCs with the structure of ITO/ZnO/PTB7 : $PC_{71}BM/MoO_3/Ag$ (7.44%) in the absence of V-Pr-2OH. This study demonstrates that a highly efficient PSCs without any high temperature heat treatment can be obtained.

  • In this study, we fabricated the indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), zinc oxide (ZnO), aluminum zinc oxide (AZO). oxide and silver are deposited by magnetron sputtering and thermal evaporator, respectively transparency and energy bandgap were changed by the thickness of silver layer. To fabricate metal oxide metal (OMO) structure, IGZO sputtered on a corning 1,737 glass substrate was used as bottom oxide material and then silver was evaporated on the IGZO layer, finally IGZO was sputtered on the silver layer we get the final OMO structure. The radio-frequency power of the target was fixed at 30 W. The chamber pressure was set to $6.0{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr, and the gas ratio of Ar was fixed at 25 sccm. The silver thickness are varied from 3 to 15 nm. The OMO thin films was analyzed using XRD. XRD shows broad peak which clearly indicates amorphous phase. ZnO, AZO, OMO show the peak [002] direction at $34^{\circ}$. This indicate that ZnO, AZO OMO structure show the crystalline peak. Average transmittance of visible region was over 75%, while that of infrared region was under 20%. Energy band gap of OMO layer was increased with increasing thickness of Ag layer. As a result total transmittance was decreased.

  • 투명전극 (TCO Transparent Conductive Oxide)은 Solar cell, Touch panel, Sensor 등 많은 분야에 이용되어지고 있다. ZnO 그리고 $SnO_2$는 ITO룰 대체하기 위하여 오래전부터 연구가 되어지고 있다. 하지만 ZnO가 가지고 있는 많은 장점에도 불구하고 ITO를 대체하기 위한 전기적 특성이 충분하지 않다. 따라서 ZnO에 Al를 도핑하는 등 다양한 연구가 진행되어왔다. 본 실험은 우수한 광학특성 및 전기적 (10-5) 특성을 확보하기 위하여 AZO/Ag/AZO 다층박막구조 형성하였다. 또한 염료감응 태양전지에 적용하기 위하여 다층박막구조를 이용한 안정성 테스트를 진행하였다.

  • Halogen gases such as $BCl_3$ and $CF_4$ are among the most problematic gases used in semiconductor process. They raise serious environmental and health problems due to their extreme toxicity. This study is to develop a method to effectively remove those gases during the process by using various types of inorganic gas adsorption agents such as zeolite A, modified AgA zeolite, ZnO, and $AgMnO_3$, which have not been attempted in the conventional methods. The removal efficiencies of the gases were both qualitatively and quantitatively measured by a FT-IR spectrophotometer. The whole device for the measurement has been designed and built in our lab. The removal efficiencies of the gases were compared between those used resins. The experimental result revealed that ZnO showed the best removal efficiency for BCl3 gas that had removed 0.094 g per 1 g of the resin used. For $CF_4$ gas, none of the solid resins was able to remove the gas effectively. However, liquid $CHCl_3$ showed some removal ability of the $CF_4$ gas.

  • The silver nanowires (AgNWs) were synthesized by the conventional polyol process, which revealed 25 ㎛ and 30 nm of average length and diameter, respectively. The synthesized AgNWs were applied to the CdSe/CdZnS quantum dot (QD) based transparent light-emitting device (LED). The device using a randomly networked AgNWs electrode had some problems such as the high threshold voltage (for operating the device) due to the random pores from the networked AgNWs. As a method of improvement, a composite electrode was formed by overlaying the ZnO:Ga on the AgNWs network. The device used the composite electrode revealed a low threshold voltage (4.4 Vth) and high current density compared to the AgNWs only electrode device. The brightness and current density of the device using composite electrode were 55.57 cd/㎡ and 41.54 mA/㎠ at the operating voltage of 12.8 V, respectively, while the brightness and current density of the device using (single) AgNWs only were 1.71 cd/㎡ and 2.05 mA/㎠ at the same operating voltage. The transmittance of the device revealed 65 % in a range of visible light. Besides the reliability of the devices was confirmed that the device using the composite electrode revealed 2 times longer lifetime than that of the AgNWs only electrode device.

  • Geochemical studies on gold-bearing quartz veins and wallrocks from the Okgye mine were carried out in order to investigate the primary dispersion patterns of gold and associated elements and to quantify the dispersion width of elements with distance from the gold-bearing quartz veins. Gold-bearing quartz veins occur in basaltic trachyandesite of unknown age. Enrichment of $k_2O$, MnO, Au, As, Rb, Sb, Pb, Zn, Cu, Ag and Cd, and depletion of $Na_2O$ and Sr are found in altered wallrocks. The ratio of $k_2O(k_2O+Na_2O)$, alteration index for trace elements, and Rb/Sr in altered wallrocks are increased, whereas Sr/CaO ratio is decreased with approach to the gold-bearing quartz veins. The widths of primary dispersion range from 17 cm to 155 cm. The relative dispersion width increases in order Au=Cu=Zn=Ag=Cd$k_2O$=Rb and Ba< $Na_2O$ $Na_2O$, As, Sb, Sr, Pb, Au, Cu, Zn, Ag and Cd, and a quadratic function for $k_2O$, MnO, Rb and Ba.

  • In this study we investigate the electronic structure and magnetism of transition metal (TM = Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Pd, Ag ) deped ZnO($TM_{0.25}Zn_{0.75}O$), which are expected to have Curie temperature. Full-potential Linearized Augmented Plane Wave(FLAPW) metod is adopted with exchange-correlation potential expressed as general gradient approximation(GGA). The calculated magnetic moments of ($TM_{0.25}Zn_{0.75}O$) are 0.83, 3.03, 4.03, 3.48, 2.47, 1.56, 0.43, 0.75, 0.01 ${\mu}_B$ for TM = Ti, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ru, Pd, Ag, respectively. The nearest neighbor O atom to the transition metal is calculated to have a significant magnetic moment of about 0.1${\mu}_B$, ?? 새 strong hybridization between O-p and TM-d bands. As the results, the systems may have larger magnetic moments in total, compared to the corresponding isolated atoms. The 3d TM doped systems exhibit the half-metallic character except Co, wheres the 4d TM doped systems behave like normal metals and low spin polarization at the Fermi levels.
