The impact response and damage of CLAS panel was investigated experimentally. The facesheet material used was RO4003 woven-glass hydrocarbon/ceramic and the core material was Nomex honeycomb with a cell size of 3.2mm and a density of 96 kg/$\textrm{m}^{3}$. The shield plane used was RO4003 and 2024-T3 aluminum. Static indentation and impact test was conducted to characterize the type and extent of the damage observed in two CLAS panels, and the performance of antenna used in a wireless LAN system. Correlation of peak contact force, residual indentation and the delamination area shows impact damage of the panel with an aluminum shield plane is larger than that of the panel with RO4003 shield plane, although tile former is more penetration resistant. The damage was observed by naked eye, ultrasonic inspection and cross sectioning. The shape and size of delamination was estimated by ultrasonic inspection, and the area of delamination linearly increases as impact energy increases. The performance of impact damaged antenna was estimated by measuring return loss and radiation pattern.

Because of the novel characteristics such as chemical stability, hardness, electrical resistivity and thermal conductivity, diamond-like carbon (DLC) film is a suitable material for the passivation layers. For this purpose, using the PECVD, DLC films were synthesized at room temperature. The adhesion and the hardness of the DLC films deposited on Si an SiO2 substrate were measured. The resistivity of 5.3$\times$$10^8$$\Omega$.cm was measured by automatic spreading resistance probe analysis method. The thermal conductivities of different DLC films were measured and compared with that of phospho silicate glass (PSG) film which is commonly used as passivation layers. The thermal conductivity of DLC film was improved by increasing hydrogen flow rate up to 90 sccm and was better than that of PSG film. The patterning techniques of the DLC film developed using the RIE and the lift-off method to form 5$\mu\textrm{m}$ line. Finally, the thermal characteristics of the power transistor with the DLC film as passiviation layer was analyzed.

Li-doped ZnO films were prepared on Corning 1737 glass substrate by an rf magnetron sputtering technique using ZnO targets with various $Li_2CO_3$ contents ranging from 0 to 10 mol%. The effects of Li doping on the crystallinity and electrical properties of ZnO films were studied for their SAW filter applications. The film resistivity largely increased without suppressing the c-axis orientation and crystallinity with a small addition of Li. Heat treatment of the film at 40$0^{\circ}C$ induced that the film resistivity, c-axis orientation and crystallinity slightly increased. However, heat treatment of the film at 50$0^{\circ}C$ resulted in much lower resistivity than that of as-deposited film due to the increase of electron concentration caused by the evaporationof Li atoms from the ZnO film. Large addition of Li into the ZnO film rather diminished the film resistivity and suppressed the c-axis growth. It was concluded that a small doping of Li into the ZnO film and heat treatment at 40$0^{\circ}C$ caused the film resistivity to be high enough for SAW filter applications without suppression of the c-axis orientation and crystallinity.

최근 통신용 전자부품의 소형화, 저가격화, 고기능화의 요구가 점점 더 증대되고 있으며 이를 위해서 기판의 배선밀도를 높이는 것과 개별 부품 또는 모듈의 크기와 무게를 줄이는 것이 절실히 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 저융점의 phosphate계 유리 프릿의 첨가를 통해 LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) 에 적용 가능한 조성을 개발하고자 하였다. 마이크로파 용 유전재료로서 널리 사용되고있는 BNT (BaO-Nd$_2$O$_3$-TiO$_3$) 계 세라믹스에 저융점 유리 프릿의 양을 10-30wt% 범위로 변화시키면서 900-110$0^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 소결하여 이에 따른 수축률 변화와 상대밀도의 변화를 조사하였다 유리 프릿으로 P$_2$O$_{5}$-ZnO-BaO-Nd$_2$O$_3$ 계, P$_2$O$_{5}$-SnO-ZnO 계 2가지 조성의 유리를 사용하였다 그 결과로 소결체의 상대밀도는 소성온도가 900-110$0^{\circ}C$ 로 증가함에 따라 85-96% 로 증가하였고, 그 수축률은 소결온도 100$0^{\circ}C$ 에서 급격히 증가하였다. 이러한 결과는 저온 동시소성 세라믹 조성의 사용을 위해 좋은 결과가 예상된다.

A transparent and colorless $80SiO_2-20TiO_2$(mol%) thin films on soda-lime-silica slide glass and sapphire substrate were obtained by spin-coating technique using tetraethyl orthosilicate and titanium trichloride as starting materials. The prepared film annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ showed a high transmittance and a low reflectance. For the $SiO_2-TiO_2$ films on slide glasses, a strong interaction between the sodium ion and oxygens is properbly the origin of the good stability to the high temperature and the high humidity.

The insulator being used for transmission line is to mount the charged conductor on the tower or other supports. The insulators are classified according to its material: porcelain, glass and polymer. Polymer insulators are also called as composite insulator or non ceramic insulator (NCI). Insulators are a major element of a power transmission system. Since a faulty insulator can lead to a wide spreading blackout, it must have sufficient mechanical and electrical strength. It must be durable, have high electrical insulation and be able to withstand a leakage current. It must also be able to withstand the toughest weather conditions. In Korea, porcelain insulators have been used widely. However, to make compact equipment and keep up with global trends, we have enhanced domestic production of polymer insulator and are encouraging its applications. Accordingly, this thesis will look at types of insulators, use and trends, and prospects of insulators application in the field.

VCO(Voltage Contolled Oscillator) is one of the main components governing the size, performance and power consumption of telecommunication devices. As the devices become much smaller, YCO need to hove much smaller size with better characteristics. Buried type passive components of L, C, R were developed previously and the structure of these components are good for minimizing the size of VCO. Our own library of passive components is used in simulation and measurement circuit designed by ourselve. In structure of multi-layered VCO, some components governing the characteristics of VCO are selected and placed on the top of oscilltor for the good tuning process. In resonator part, the stripline structure and low loss glass/ceramic material are used to get higher Q value. In our research, a VCO oscillates in the 2.3~2.36 GHz band is developed.

PTCR(Positive Temperature Coefficient of Resistivity) thermistor in thin film BaTiO$_{3}$ system was prepared by using radio frequency(13.56 MHz) and DC magnetron sputter equipment. Polycrystalline, surface structure, and R-T(Resistivity-Temperature) characteristics of the specimens were measured by X-ray diffraction(D-Max3, Rigaku, Japan), SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy: M.JSM84 01, Japan), and insulation resistance measuring system (Keithley 719), respectively. Thin films characteristics of the thermistor showed different properties depending on the substrate even with the same sputtering condition. The thin film formed on the A1$_{2}$O$_{3}$ substrate showed a good crystalline and a low resistivity at below curie point. However, the thin films prepared on slide glass and Si wafer were amorphous. The thicknesses of the three samples prepared under the same process conditions were 700[.angs.], 637.75[.angs.], and 715[.angs.], respectively.

Piezoelectric sensors are extensively used to measure force because of their high sensitivity and low cost. however, the development of device with reduced size but with improved sensitivity is highly important. Low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) is one of promising materials for this application than a silicon substrate because it has very good electrical and mechanical properties as well as possibility of making various three dimensional (3D) structures. In this work, piezoelectric pressure sensors based on hybrid LTCC technology were presented. The LTCC diaphragms with thickness of $400\;{\mu}m$ were fabricated by laminating 12 green tapes which consist of alumina and glass particle in an organic binder. The piezoelectric sensing layer consists of PZT thin film deposited by RF magnetron sputtering method on between top and bottom Au electrodes. The PZT films deposited on LTCC diaphragms were successfully grown and were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction method (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM).
