In this paper, we calculated the warpage of bare substrates and chip attached substrates by using FEM (Finite Element Method), and compared and analyzed the effect of the chips' attachment on warpage. Also, the effects of layer thickness of substrates for reducing warpage were analyzed and the conditions of layer thickness were analyzed by signal-to-noise ratio of Taguchi method. According to the analysis results, the direction of warpage pattern in substrates can change when chips are attached. Also, the warpage decreases as the difference in the CTE (coefficient of thermal expansion) between the top and bottom of the package decreases and the stiffness of the package increases after chips are loaded. In addition, according to the impact analysis of design parameters on substrates where chips are not attached, in order to reduce warpage, the inner layers of the circuit layer Cu1 and Cu4 has be controlled first, and then concentrated on the thickness of the solder resist on the bottom side and the thickness of the prepreg layer between Cu1 and Cu2.

Joining of AIN ceramics to W and Cu by active-metal brazing method was tried with use of (Ag-Cu)-Ti alloy as insert-metal. Joints were produced under various conditions of temperature, holding time and Ti-content in (Ag-Cu) alloy Reaction and microstructural development in bonded interface were investigated through observation and analysis by SEM/EDS, EPMA and XRD. Joint strengths were measured by shear test. Bonded interface consists of two layers: an insert-metal layer of eutectic Ag- and Cu-rich phases and a reaction layer of TiN. Thickness of reaction layer increases with bonding temperature, holding time and Ti-content of insert-metal. It was confirmed that the growth of reaction layer is a diffusion-controlled process. Activation energy for this process was 260 KJ/mol which is lower than that for N diffusion in TiN. Maximum shear strength of 108 MPa and 72 MPa were obtained for AIN/W and AIN/Cu joints, respectively. Relationship between processing variables, joint strength and thickness of reaction layer was also explained.

Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) are of interest for use in widely area electronic applications. We fabricated the organic field-effect transistor based a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) as an active layer on the silicon substrate. The CuPc FET device was made a topcontact type and the substrate temperature was room temperature and $150^{\circ}C$. The CuPc thickness was 40 nm, and the channel length was $50{\mu}m$, channel width was 3 mm. We observed the typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and capacitance-voltage (C-V) in CuPc FET and we calculated the effective mobility with each device. Also, we observed the AFM images with different substrate temperature.

An organic field-effect transistor (OFET) was fabricated using a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) as the active layer on the silicon substrate. The CuPc FET device was configured as a top-contact type. The substrate temperature was room temperature. The CuPc thickness was 40 nm, and the channel length and channel width were 100 ${\mu}m$ 3 mm, respectively. Typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of the CuPc FET were observed and subsequently compared to the UV/ozone treatment on substrate surface.

Effect of Film thickness on the sensing behavior of thin-film-type ags sensor has been analyzed by deriving an equation form a simple model, and the equation was applied to the sensing behavior of ${SnO}_{2}$ and CuO-${SnO}_{2}$ thin-film sensors. It was revealed, from the equation,that the gas sensing property was closely related to gas diffusivity into the film which was a function of film thickness, reactivity of the gas detected with sensing material, operating temperature, etc. The equation derived was well consistent with the experimental results from ${SnO}_{2}$ and CuO-${SnO}_{2}$ thin-film sensors and explained their different ${H}_{2}S$ sensing behaviors. Finally, a medel was suggested, explainning the effect of gas diffusivity on sensing be havior of oxide semiconductor sensor.

The magnetoresistance characteristics of FeN/Co/Cu/Co and FeN/Co/Cu/Co/Cu/Co/FeN multilayers using ferromagnetic iron-nitrides (FeN) has been studied. The microstructure of FeN film is the mixed ${\alpha}$-Fe and $\varepsilon$-Fe$_3$N phase on the condition that the flow rate of N$_2$ gas is over 0.4 sccm. The magnetoresistance effect is observed because of shape magnetic anisotropy induced by needle-shaped $\varepsilon$-Fe$_3$N phase. This magnetoresistance effect changes, because the degree that the shape magnetic anisotropy adheres to the adjacent Co pinned layer is varied according to the flow rate of N$_2$ gas and the thickness of FeN film. The best magnetoresistance effect is obtained on the condition that the thickness of Co free layer is 70 ${\AA}$ and the maximum MR ratio(%) value of 3.2% shows in the FeN(250 ${\AA}$)/Co(70 ${\AA}$)/Cu(25 ${\AA}$)/Co(70 ${\AA}$)/Cu(25 ${\AA}$)/Co(70 ${\AA}$)/FeN(250 ${\AA}$) mutilayer film which is fabricated at the N, gas flow rate of 0.5 sccm and the FeN film thickness of 250 ${\AA}$. Four steps are observed in the magnetoresistance curve owing to this difference of coercive force, because respective magnetic layers in the multilayer possess different coercive forces. These effects observed in these mutilayer films can be expected to application to the memory device the same MRAM as can carry out simultaneously four signals.

This study presented the effect of membrane thickness on hydrogen permeability. Microvoids on the surface of the membrane should not exist for the exact values of hydrogen permeability. Pd-Cu-Ni hydrogen alloy membranes were fabricated by Ni powder sintering, substrate plasma pretreatment, sputtering and Cu reflow process. And this leaded to void-free surface and dense film of Pd-Cu-Ni hydrogen alloy membrane. Hydrogen permeation test showed that hydrogen permeability increased from 2.7 to $15.2ml/cm^2{\cdot}min{\cdot}atm^{0.5}$ as membrane thickness decreased from 12 to $4{\mu}m$. This represented the similar trend as a hydrogen permeability of pure palladium membrane based on solution-diffusion mechanism.
