Carbon nitride ($CN_X$) films were prepared by reactive RF magnetron sputtering system at various deposition conditions and the C-V characteristics of MIS(metal - insulator - semiconductor) capacitors that have the structures of Al/$CN_x$/p-Si/Al and Al/$CN_x$/$Si_3N_4$/p-Si/Al were investigated. The resistivity of carbon nitride was above $2.40{\times}10^8{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at room temperature. The C-V plot showed a typical capacitance-voltage characteristics of semiconductor insulating layers, while it showed hysterisis due to interface charges. Amorphous carbon nitride (a-$CN_x$) films, that have relatively high resistivity and low dielectric constant could be useful as interlayer insulator materials of VLSI(very large-scale integration) and ULSI(ultra large-scale integration).

This paper presents the fabrication and characterization of carbon films pyrolyzed with various photoresists for bioMEMS applications. To verify the usefulness of pyrolyzed carbon films as an electrode material in an electrochemical biosensor developed by the authors, interactions between avidin and biotin on the pyrolyzed carbon film were studied via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy based on electrostatic interactions between avidin and negatively-charged ferricyanide. The pyrolyzed carbon films were characterized using a surface profiler, a precision semiconductor parameter analyzer, a nanoindentor, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy. Amine conjugated biotin was immobilized on the electrode using EDC/NHS as crosslinkers after $O_2$ plasma treatment to enhance functional groups on the carbon electrode pyrolyzed at $1000^{\circ}C$ with AZ9260. The detection of avidin binding with different concentrations in a range of 0.75 nM to $7.5\;{\mu}M$ to the pyrolyzed carbon electrode modified with biotin was carried out by measuring the electrochemical impedance change. The results show that avidin binds to the biotin on the electrode not by non-specific interaction but by specific interaction, and that EIS successfully detects this binding event. Pyrolyzed carbon films are a promising material for miniaturization, integration, and low-cost fabrication in electrochemical biosensors.

Boron-Carbon-Nitrogen (B-C-N) system is an attractive ternary material since it has not only an extremely high hardness but also a number of other prominent characteristics such as chemical inertness, elevated melting point, and low thermal expansion. In this paper, the corrosion behavior of B-C-N thin films in aqueous solution was investigated B-C-N films with different composition were deposited on a platinum plate by magnetron sputtering in the thickness range of 150-280 nm. In order to understand effect of pH of solutions, $BC_{2.\;4}N$ samples were immerged in 1M HCl, 1M NaCl, and 1M NaOH solution at 298k, respectively. BCN samples with different carbon contents were exposed to 1M NaOH solutions to investigate effect of chemical composition on corrosion resistance. Corrosion rates of samples were measured by ellipsometry, From results, optical constant of $BC_{2,\;4}N$ films was found to be $N_2=2.110-0.295i$. The corrosion rates of $Bi_{1.\;0}C_{2.\;4}N_{1.\;0}$ films were NaOH>NaCl>HCl in orders. With increasing carbon content in B-C-N films, the corrosion resistance of B-C-N films was enhanced. The lowest corrosion rate was obtained for $B_{1.\;0}C_{4.\;4}N_{1.\;9}$ film.

리그닌(lignin)은 고분자와 혼합될 수 있고 탄화도 가능하므로 효용성이 크다. 본 실험에서는, 탄화에 유리한 고분자인 폴리아크릴로나이트릴(polyacrylonitrile, PAN)과 리그닌을 혼합하여 탄소 전구체(precursor)로 제조하고, 탄화(carbonization)하여 안정한 탄소 필름이 제어된 탄화 과정을 통해 제조되었다. 얻어진 탄화 소재의 형태적, 전기적 특성들이 분석되었으며, 흡착 성능이 실험적으로 제시되었다. 탄소 전구체 복합소재의 형성은 적외선 분광기(Fourier-transform infrared, FT-IR)를 통해 확인하였고, 생성된 탄소 필름의 외형적 특성은 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscope, SEM)을 이용하여 고찰하였다. 이를 통해 전구체 필름의 구조적 안정성이 탄화 이후에도 유지됨을 확인하였으며, 필름 내부에 존재하는 리그닌의 흔적도 고찰할 수 있었다. 탄소 필름의 미세 구조는 라만(Raman) 분광기를 통해 분석하였으며, 표면적 및 기공 구조는 BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) 법으로 측정하여, 비교적 균일한 기공이 형성됨을 확인하였다. 탄소 시료의 전기적 특성도 고찰하여, 흡착 소재로서 사용 가능함을 확인하였고, 흡착(adsorption) 테스트를 통해 금속 양이온을 효율적으로 제거할 수 있음을 증명하였다. 본 연구는 해당 분야 향후 연구에 중요한 정보를 제공할 것이다.

RF plasma CVD법을 이용하여 금속 촉매(Fe)가 증착된 $SiO_2$ 기판 위에 $H_2$와 $C_2H_2$의 혼합가스를 사용하여 증착된 탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotube, CNT)의 특성에 대한 기판의 온도의 영향을 조사하였다. $SiO_2$ 위에 철 촉매는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터에 의해 만들어졌다. 고 순도의 나노튜브 박막을 얻기 위해서 기판 홀더 위에 접지된 그리드 메쉬 커버를 설치하였다. 증착된 CNT의 표면 미세구조 및 화학적 구조를 SEM, Raman, XPS, 그리고 TEM으로 측정하였다. 증착된 CNT 박막들은 대나무 같은 다중벽 구조를 가지는 탄소 파이버 형태였으며 $55^{\circ}C$에서 보다 $600^{\circ}C$에서 보다 더 치밀한 구조를 보이나 $650^{\circ}C$에서는 밀도가 다소 감소함을 알 수 있었다.

In order to give hydrophobic surface properties on carbon steel, the fluorinated amorphous carbon films were prepared by using linear 2.45GHz microwave PECVD device. Two different process approaches have been tested. One is direct deposition of a-C:H:F films using admixture of $Ar/CH_4/CF_4$ working gases and the other is surface treatment using $CF_4$ plasma after deposition of a-C:H film with $Ar/CH_4$ binary gas system. $Ar/CF_4$ plasma treated surface with high $CF_4$ gas ratio shows best hydrophobicity and durability of hydrophobicity. Nanometer scale surface roughness seems one of the most important factors for hydrophobicity within our experimental conditions. The properties of a-C:H:F films and $CF_4$ plasma treated a-C:H films were investigated in terms of surface roughness, hardness, microstructure, chemical bonding, atomic bonding structure between carbon and fluorine, adhesion and water contact angle by using atomic force microscopy (AFM), nano-indentation, Raman analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

In order to investigate the properties of diamond-like carbon(DLC) thin films depending on the deposition parameters, DLC thin films were systematically fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD), DLC thin films have been shown advantageous field emission properties due to a negative electron affinity (NEA) and a low work function. At the atomic level. DLC is referred to the group of carbon materials with strong chemical bonding composition of $sp^2$ and $sp^3$ arrangements of atoms incorporated with an amorphous structure. The experiment was performed at substrate temperature in the range of room temperature to $600^{\circ}C$. The laser energy densiy was used to be in the range of $6J/cm^2$ to $20J/cm^2$, SEM, Raman, PL, XPS and field emission characteristics were used to investigate the DLC thin films.

In this paper, we report the successful growth of crystalline carbon nitride films in Si(100) by a laser-electric discharge method. The laser ablation of the target leads to vapor plume plasma expending into the ambient nitrogen arc discharge area. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) were used to identify the binding structure and the content of the nitrogen species in the deposited films. The surface morphology of the films with a deposition time of 2 hours is studied using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In order to determine the structural crystalline parameters, X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used to analysis the grown films.

This paper presents an investigation of the phase-resolved partial discharge (PD) pattern of PET (Poly Ethylene Telephthalate) films with carbon black particles. The phase-resolved PD pattern and statistical parameter from PET samples according to the number of included semiconductor particles were measured. The measurement system consisted of a conventional PD detector using a digital signal processing technique. The partial discharge patterns of the PET films that include the semiconductor particles were investigated to simulate an actual situation that may exist in the cable. In addition, difference of PD patterns between semiconducting particles in PET films and artificial voids was studied. The relationship between the numbers of semiconductor particles in PET films was discussed through the difference of Ψ-q-n distribution and statistical analysis.

The Hydrogenated amorphous carbon(a-C:H) thin films are deposited on silicon with a close field unbalanced magnetron(CFUBM) sputtering systems. The experimental data are obtained on the depositon rate and physical properties of a-C:H films using DC bias voltage and Ar/C$_2$H$_2$ pressure. The depostion rate and the surface roughness decrease with DC bias voltage, but the hardness of the thin films increases with DC bias voltage. And the position of G-peak moves to lower wavenumber indicating an increase in diamond-like carbon characteristics with the lower Ar/C$_2$H$_2$ pressure.
