대면적 그래핀을 합성하는 방법으로 주로 화학기상증작법, SiC 기판을 고온 열처리하는 방법 그리고 최근에는 고체소스를 활용하여 그래핀을 합성하는 방법 등이 보고되고 있다. 이에, 본 연구에서는 폴리머 용액들을 원하는 기판에 스핀코팅하여 건조시킨 후, 후 열처리 공정을 통해 그래핀을 합성하고 물성을 평가해보았다. 그래핀 합성을 위해서 사용된 폴리머 탄소원은 Vinyl계 폴리머 용액으로, polystyrene (PS), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), 그리고 polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) 등으로 2wt%의 폴리머 용액을 $SiO_2$기판에 스핀 코팅을 하고, 그 위에 Nickel이나 Copper와 같은 catalytic metal을 capping layer로 증착하고, 고진공에서 후열처리 공정에 의해 그래핀을 성장하였다. 이때, 탄소원으로 쓰인 PS, PMMA 폴리머는 pristine graphene 합성을 위해, PAN 폴리머는 질소가 도핑된(n-type) 그래핀 합성을 위해 사용되었다. 그래핀의 물성은 폴리머 종류, 코팅된 두께, 촉매 금속층 종류와 두께, 그리고 후열처리 공정 온도와 시간에 따라서 조절이 가능하였다. 우리는 Raman spectroscopy, AFM, SEM 등을 활용하여 그래핀의 층수, 결함, 표면양상 등을 평가하였고, 또한 전사된 그래핀을 기반으로 제작된 FET의 게이트 전압에 따른 I-V 곡선을 측정하여 캐리어 종류 및 전하 이동도 등을 평가하였다. 더욱 상세한 내용은 프레젠테이션에서 논하겠다.

In this study, PZT thin films were fabricated using sol-gel processing onto Si/$SiO_2$/Ti/Pt substrates. PZT sol with different Zr/Ti ratio(20/80, 30/70, 40/60, 52/48) were prepared, respectively. The films were fabricated by using the spin-coating method on substrates. The films were heat treated at $450^{\circ}C$, $650^{\circ}C$ by rapid thermal annealing(RTA). The preferred orientation of the PZT thin films were observed by X-ray diffraction(XRD), and Scanning electron microscopy(SEM). All of the resulting PZT thin films were crystallized with perovskite phase. The fine crystallinity of the films were fabricated. Also, we found that the ferroelectric properties from the dielectric constant of the PZT thin films were over 600 degrees, P-E hysteresis constant. And the leakage current densities of films were lower than $10^{-8}A/cm^2$. It is concluded that the PZT thin films by sol-gel process to be convinced of application for ferroelectric memory device.

The contact mechanism of devices is usually researched at electrode contacts. However, the contact between a dielectric and channel at the MOS structure is more important. The graphene was used as a channel material, and the thin film transistor with MOS structure was prepared to observe the contact mechanism. The graphene was obtained on Cu foil by the thermal decomposition method with $H_2$ and $CH_4$ mixed gases at an ambient annealing temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$ during the deposition for 30 min, and was then transferred onto a $SiO_2/Si$ substrate. The graphene was doped in a nitrogen acidic solution. The chemical properties of graphene were investigated to research the effect of nitric atoms doping. The sheet resistance of graphene decreased after nitrogen acidic doping, and the sheet resistance decreased with an increase in the doping times because of the increment of negative charge carriers. The nitric-atom-doped graphene showed the Ohmic contact at the curve of the drain current and drain voltage, in spite of the Schottky contact of grapnene without doping.

In this research, we evaluated the electrical properties of polycrystalline-gallium-oxIde (Ga₂O₃) thin films grown by mist-CVD. A 500~800 nm-thick Ga₂O₃ film was used as a channel in a fabricated bottom-gate MOSFET device. The phase stability of the β-phase Ga₂O₃ layer was enhanced by an annealing treatment. A Ti/Al metal stack served as source and drain electrodes. Maximum drain current (I_D) exceeded 1 mA at a drain voltage (V_D) of 20 V. Electron mobility of the β-Ga₂O₃ channel was determined from maximum transconductance (g_m), as approximately, 1.39 ㎠/Vs. Reasonable device characteristics were demonstrated, from measurement of drain current-gate voltage, for mist-CVD-grown Ga₂O₃ thin films.

Polycrystalline silicon ingots were manufactured using the casting method for polycrystalline silicon solar cells. These ingots were cut into wafers and ten n$^{+}$p type solar cells were made through the following simple process` surface etching, n$^{+}$p junction formation, metalization and annealing. For the grain boundary passivation, the samples were oxidized in O$_2$ for 5 min. at 80$0^{\circ}C$ prior to diffusion in Ar for 100 min. at 95$0^{\circ}C$. The conversion efficiency of polycrystalline silicon solar cells made from these wafers showed about 70-80% of those of the single crystalline silicon solar cell and superior conversion efficiency, compared to those of commercial polycrystalline wafers of Wacker Chemie. The maximum conversion efficiency of our wafers was indicated about 8%(without AR coating) in spite of such a simple fabrication method.

In the case of contacts between semiconductor and metal in semiconductor devices, they tend to be unstable because of thermal budget. To prevent these problems we deposited W-C-N diffusion barrier for preventing the interdiffusion between metal and semiconductor. The thickness of the barrier is $1,000{\AA}$ and the pressure is 3 mTorr during the deposition. In this work we coated LSMO (CMR material) on W-C-N diffusion barrier and then we studied the interface effects between LSMO layer and W-C-N diffusion barrier. We got results that the magnetic characteristics of LSMO thin film are still maintained after annealing at $800^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr because W-C-N thin diffusion barrier was prevented the diffusion of oxygen between LSMO and Si substrate.

Novel structured thin film transistors (TFTs) of amorphous silicon zinc tin oxide (a-SZTO) were designed and fabricated with a thin metal layer between the source and drain electrodes. A SZTO channel was annealed at $500^{\circ}C$. A Ti/Au electrode was used on the SZTO channel. Metals are deposited between the source and drain in this novel structured TFTs. The mobility of the was improved from $14.77cm^2/Vs$ to $35.59cm^2/Vs$ simply by adopting the novel structure without changing any other processing parameters, such as annealing condition, sputtering power or processing pressure. In addition, stability was improved under the positive bias thermal stress and negative bias thermal stress applied to the novel structured TFTs. Finally, this novel structured TFT was observed to be less affected by back-channel effect.

The composites in the system aluminium titanate-mullite were synthesized by stepwise alkoxide hydrolysis of tetraethylorthosilicate, Si(OCLH5), and titaniumtetraethoxide, $Ti(OC_{2}H_{5})_4$ in $Al_{2}O_{3}$ ethanolic colloidal solution. All particles produced by sol-gel-process were amorphous, monodispesed and had a narrow particle size distribution. Sintered bodies at $1600 ^{\circ}C$ for 2h were subjected to prolonged durability tests-on the one hand annealing at the critical decomposition temperature of $1100 ^{\circ}C$ for lOOh and on the other cyclic thermal shock between 750 and $1400 ^{\circ}C$ for 100h. The best thermal durability was achieved by a composition containing 70 and 80 vol% aluminium titanate, which showed little change in microstructure and thermal expansion cycles during the tests. The microstructural degradation of samples studied using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and dilatometry, was presented here. The study was conducted in order to predict the service life of aluminium titanate-mullite ceramics formed by this processing route.

The feasibility of graphoepitaxial growth of compound semiconductor has been studied. Two kinds of substrates were prepared; one is smooth substrate, the other one is a periodic structured substrate. ZnO film was deposited on both substrates by sputtering, and thermal treatment was performed to improve the crystal quality and investigate the effect of the periodic structure. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and photoluminescence (PL) were used to characterize the samples. As a result, very similarchange, the improvement of crystallinity, has been observed from both samples, except the sample annealed at the highest temperature. It implies the periodic structure affects the crystallinity of the films, and the graphoepitaxy of compound semiconductors is possible by using appropriate surface structure.
