  • In this study, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV)/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite films containing various content of GO were prepared using solution casting method. The effect of GO content on Young's modulus and dispersion of GO in PHBV matrix was investigated. Also, the thermomechanical properties, oxygen transmission rates and hydrolytic degradation of PHBV/GO nanocomposite films were studied. The addition of GO into PHBV improves the Young's modulus and decreases thermal expansion coefficient. The improvement can be mainly attributed to good dispersion of GO and interfacial interactions between PHBV and GO. Furthermore, PHBV/GO nanocomposite films show good oxygen barrier properties. PHBV/GO nanocomposites show lower hydrolytic degradation rates with increasing content of GO.

  • Sensor nodes in ubiquitous sensor networks require autonomous replacement of deteriorated gas sensors with reserved sensors, which has led us to develop an encapsulation technique to avoid poisoning the reserved sensors and an autonomous activation technique to replace a deteriorated sensor with a reserved sensor. Encapsulations of $In_2O_3$ nanoparticles with poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) (EVOH) or polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as gas barrier layers are reported. The EVOH or PVDF films are used for an encapsulation of $In_2O_3$ as a sensing material and are effective in blocking $In_2O_3$ from contacting formaldehyde (HCHO) gas. The activation process of $In_2O_3$ by removing the EVOH through heating is effective. However, the thermal decomposition of the PVDF affects the property of the $In_2O_3$ in terms of the gas reactivity. The response of the sensor to HCHO gas after removing the EVOH is 26%, which is not significantly different with the response of 28% in a reference sample that was not treated at all. We believe that the selection of gas barrier materials for the encapsulation and activation of $In_2O_3$ should be considered because of the ill effect the byproduct of thermal decomposition has on the sensing materials and other thermal properties of the barrier materials.

  • We investigated transmittance, surface characteristics, and resistivity according to bending of ITO(indium tin oxide) film with four other multi-barrier film. Transmission data of ITO film with four ITO films showed there was about large 90% transmission above 550nm wavelength at three multi-barrier structures. But, both-side hard coated structure showed relatively low 75% transmission above 550nm wavelength. And, surface images measured from SEM(scanning electron microscope) showed both-side hard coated structure have a tendency of more roughness. Also, resistivity change of four other multi-barrier film showed there was the lowest change at one-side hardcoated structure. Subsequently, with result of resistivity change according to position, we knew the resistivity change of the center increased rapidly than that of the edge.

  • For a diffusion barrier against copper, tantalum nitride films have been deposited on $SiO_{2}$ by atomic layer deposition (ALD), using PEMAT(Pentakis(ethylmethylamino)tantalum) and $NH_{3}$ as precursors, Ar as purging gas. The deposition rate of TaN at substrate temperature $250^{\circ}C$ was about $0.67{\AA}$ per one cycle. The stability of TaN films as a Cu diffsion barrier was tested by thermal annealing for 30 minutes in $N_{2}$ ambient and characterized through XRD, sheet resistance, and C-V measurement(Cu($1000{\AA}$)/TaN($50{\AA}$)/$SiO_{2}$($2000{\AA}$)/Si capacitor fabricated), which prove the TaN film maintains the barrier properties Cu below $400^{\circ}C$.

  • 고밀도 폴리에틸렌(High density polyethylene, HDPE)을 수분에 민감한 전기전자제품, 의약품 등을 위한 하이배리어 패키징 소재로써 적용하기 위해서 높은 가로세로비(High aspect ratio)를 가진 Exfoliated graphite (이하 EFG)를 필러로 도입하였다. 또한, 효과적인 분산성과 혼화성을 위해서 상용화제를 첨가하여 HDPE/EFG 나노복합필름을 제조하였다. HDPE/EFG 나노복합필름의 EFG 함량에 따른 화학적 특성, 모폴로지(Morphology), 열적 특성 및 수분차단 특성을 조사하였다. HDPE와 EFG 사이에 화학적 결합이나 상호작용이 약하지만, EFG를 첨가함에 따라 수증기 투과도는 127에서 78 (70 ${\mu}m{\cdot}g/m^2$, $day{\cdot}atm$)까지 감소되었다. 특히, HDPE/EFG 나노복합필름은 EFG의 함량이 0.5%일 때 가장 효과적이며, 그 이상의 함량에서는 물성이 향상되지 않았다. 따라서, 물성의 극대화를 위해서는 EFG의 분산성 향상 및 HDPE와 EFG의 화학적 결합 등의 혼화성 개선에 관한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

  • In our study we consider Al2O3 ceramic substrates for Plasma Surface Treatments in order to improve deposited diamond surface and increase diamond deposition rate by applying DBD (Dielectric Barrier Dischrge) system. Because Plasma Surface Treatments was used as a modification method of material surface properties like surface free energy, wettability, and adhesion. By applying Plasma Surface Treatments diamond films are deposited on the Al2O3 ceramic substrates. DC Arc Plasmatron with mathane and hydrogen gases is used. Deposited diamond films are investigated by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) and XRD (X-ray Diffractometer). Then the C-H stretching of synthetic diamond films by FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) is studied. As a result, nanocrystalline diamond films were identified by using SEM and diamond properties in XRD peaks at (111, $43.8{\Box}$, (220, $75.3{\Box}$ and (311, $90.4{\Box}$ were shown. Absorption peaks in FTIR spectrum, caused by CHx sp3 bond stretching of CVD diamond films, were identified as well. Finally, we improved such parameters as depostion rate ($2.3{\mu}m$/h), diamond surface uniformity, and impurities level by applying Plasma Surface Treatments. These experimental results show the importance of Plasma Surface Treatments for diamond deposition by a plasma source.

  • Recently, TCO films with low carrier concentration, high mobility and high work function are proposed beneficial as front electrode in HIT solar cell due to free-carrier absorption in NIR wavelength region and low Schottky barrier height in the front TCO/a-Si:H(p) interface. We report high transmittance and work function zirconium-doped indium tin oxide (ITO:Zr) films with various plasma (Ar/O2 and Ar) conditions. The role of (Ar/O2) plasma was to enhance the work function of the ITO:Zr films whereas the pure Ar plasma based ITO:Zr showed good electrical properties. The RF magnetron sputtered ITO:Zr films with low resistivity and high transmittance were employed as front electrode in HIT solar cells, yield the best performance of 18.15% with an open-circuit voltage of 710 eV and current density of 34.63 mA/cm2. The high work function ITO:Zr films can be used to modify the front barrier height of HIT solar cell.

  • We have investigated the electrical characteristics of arachidic acid($C_{20}$), stearic acid(C_{18} and palmitic acid($C_{16}$) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films because the fatty acid systems have a same hydrophilic group and a different hydrophobic one (alkyl chain length). In this work, fatty acid systems were used as LB films and the status of the deposited films were confirmed by evaluating the capacitance and I-V characteristics. The conductivity of $C_{20}$, C_{18} and $C_{16}$ LB films obtained from I-V characteristics were about 5x $10^{15}$, 3x $10^{14}$ and 9x $10^{14}$[S/cm], espectively. These results have shown the insulating materials and could control the conductivity by changing the length of alkyl chain. Also, we have confirmed that the barrier height of fatty acid systems were about 1.32- 1.40[eV] and the relative dielectric constant were about 2.9~4.2. These values were almost the same ones obtained from dielectric characteristics.

  • 옻나무에서 추출한 우루시올은 우수한 열안정상과 항균성을 나타내며, 이러한 특성을 기능성 패키징에 응용하기 위하여 폴리우루시올(YPUOH) 분말을 제조하였다. 제조한 YPUOH 분말과 저밀도 폴리에틸렌(LDPE)을 twin screw extruder system을 이용하여 다른 세 가지 조성의 LDPE/YPUOH 복합필름을 제조하였다. 기능성 패키징 소재로서의 응용 가능성을 알아보기 위하여 LDPE/YPUOH 복합필름에 대한 모폴로지, 열적 특성, 항균 특성, 배리어 특성을 조사하였다. LDPE와 YPUOH의 상호작용은 약하지만, 잘 분산된 복합필름 제조가 가능하였으며, YPUOH의 도입에 따라 열안정성은 증가하였다. YPUOH 분말의 우수한 항균특성은 제조한 LDPE/YPUOH의 복합필름에서도 E. coli에 대하여 99.9%의 우수한 항균활성(R)을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, LDPE/YPUOH 복합필름의 수분에 대한 배리어 특성은 YPUOH의 함량이 증가함에 따라 향상되었으며, 이는 YPUOH가 수분에 대한 배리어성 필러로서 작용하며, 또한 복합필름의 표면 특성을 소수성으로 변화시켜주는 것에 기인한다. 저함량의 YPUOH 도입에 따른 LDPE의 내열성, 항균 특성, 수분에 대한 배리어 특성의 향상은 옻 추출물로 제조한 YPUOH가 패키징 소재의 기능성 필러로서 응용 가능성이 높다는 것을 의미한다.

  • We have grown, for the first time to our knowledge, N-doped ZnO thin films on sapphire substrate by employing novel dielectric barrier discharge in pulsed laser deposition (DBD-PLD). DBD guarantees an effective way for massive in-situ generation of N-plasma under the conventional PLD process condition. Low-temperature photoluminescence spectra of the N-doped ZnO film provided near band-edge emission after thermal annealing process. The emission peak was resolved by Gaussian fitting to find a dominant acceptor-bound exciton peak ($A^0X$) that indicates the successful p-type doping of ZnO with N.
