  • 최근 평판디스플레이 산업이 성장함에 따라 품질향상을 위한 연구가 활발히 진행중이며 또한, 부품 소재 개발에 박차를 가하고 있다. 대형 평판디스플레이 중 낮은 전력소모와 광시야각이 우수한 TFT-LCD가 각광받고 있다. TFT-LCD 소자의 투명전극으로 사용되기 위해서는 면저항 10~1k Ohm/sq., 광투과율 85% 이상의 특성이 요구되며 ITO(Indium Tin Oxide의 약자) 타겟을 스퍼터링한 박막이 일반적으로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $In_2O_3$ 나노 분말 제조 공법으로 제작된 ITO 타겟을 사용하여 양산성 및 대형화에 적합한 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터 방식으로 투명전극을 제조하였다. 일반적으로 사용되는 고정식 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터 방식은 타겟표면에 재증착(back deposition)되는 저급산화물로 인해 이물 또는 노즐(Nodule) 이 형성되고 이로 인해 비이상적이고 불안정한 방전 플라즈마가 박막의 특성을 저하시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해 이동식 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터 방식을 채택하였으며 대형 타겟을 이용한 대형화 기판 제작과 안정적인 sputter yield로 인해 uniformity가 우수한 ITO 박막을 제조하였다. ITO 박막의 저면저항 고투과율 특성을 구현하기 위해 공정변수인 산소분압, 전류밀도(DC power) 그리고 증착온도에 따른 ITO 박막의 미세조직과 결정성을 관찰하였으며 전기적 특성을 분석하였다.

  • 본 논문에서는 가변형 $Bi_2O_3-ZnO-Nb_2O_5(BZN)$ Pyrochlore 박막을 이용한 고가변형 inter-digital capacitor를 제안하였다. 가장자리 전계 효과를 이용한 가변성의 향상과 DC 전압의 감소를 위해 inter-digital capacitor의 전극이 박막 내부에 삽입되었다. 2.5D simulator를 이용한 설계 결과, 제 안된 구조의 inter-digital capacitor(IDC)가 일반적인 구조의 IDC에 비해 가변성이 10 % 향상되었다. 제안된 IDC는 설계 결과를 바탕으로 실리콘 기판 위에 BZN 박막을 이용하여 제작되었다. BZN 박막은 reactive RF magnetron sputtering 방법을 이용하여 증착되었다. 제작된 inter-digital capacitor는 5.8 GHz와 18 V의 DC 인가 전압에서 최대 가변율이 50 %였다.

  • For the application of photo-detector as active layer, we have studied how to deposit SiGe thin film using an independent Si target and Ge target, respectively. Both targets were synthesized by purity of 99.999%. Plasma generators were generated by radio frequency (rf, 13.56 MHz) and direct current (dc) power. When Ge and Si targets were sputtered by dc and rf power, respectively, we could observe the growth of highly crystalline Ge thin film at the temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ from the result of raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction method. However, SiGe thin film did not deposit above method. Inversely, we changed target position like that Ge and Si targets were sputtered by rf and dc power, respectively. Although Ge crystalline growth without Si target sputtering deteriorated considerably, the growth of SiGe thin film was observed with increase of Si dc power. SiGe thin film was evaluated as microcrystalline phase which included (111) and (220) plane by X-ray diffraction method.

  • Transparent, conductive electrode films, showing the particular characteristics of good conductivity and high transparency, are of considerable research interest because of their potential for use in opto-electronic applications, such as smart window, photovoltaic cells and flat panel displays. Multilayer transparent electrodes, having a much lower electrical resistance than widely-used transparent conducting oxide electrodes, were prepared by using RF/DC magnetron sputtering system. The multilayer structure consisted of three layers, [NiInZnO(NIZO)/Ag/NIZO]. The optical and electrical properties of the multilayered NIZO/Ag/NIZO structure were investigated in relation to the thickness of each layer. The optical and electrical characteristics of multilayer structures have been investigated as a function of the Ag and NIZO film thickness. High-quality transparent conductive films have been obtained, with sheet resistance of $9.8{\Omega}/sq$ for Ag film thickness of 8 nm. Also the multilayer films of inserted Ag 8 nm thickness showed a high optical transmittance above 93% in the visible range. The electrical and optical properties of the new multilayer films were mainly dependent on the thickness of Ag insertion layer.

  • The LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) technology meets the requirements for high quality microelectronic devices and microsystems application due to a very good electrical and mechanical properties, high reliability and stability as well as possibility of making integrated three dimensional microstructures. The wet process, which has been applied to the etching of the metallic thin film on the ceramic substrate, has multi process steps such as lithography and development and uses very toxic chemicals arising the environmental problems. The other side, Plasma technology like ion beam sputtering is clean process including surface cleaning and treatment, sputtering and etching of semiconductor devices, and environmental cleanup. In this study, metallic multilayer pattern was fabricated by the ion beam etching of Ti/Pd/Cu without the lithography. In the experiment, Alumina and LTCC were used as the substrate and Ti/Pd/Cu metallic multilayer was deposited by the DC-magnetron sputtering system. After the formation of Cu/Ni/Au multilayer pattern made by the photolithography and electroplating process, the Ti/Pd/Cu multilayer was dry-etched by using the low energy-high current ion-beam etching process. Because the electroplated Au layer was the masking barrier of the etching of Ti/Pd/Cu multilayer, the additional lithography was not necessary for the etching process. Xenon ion beam which having the high sputtering yield was irradiated and was used with various ion energy and current. The metallic pattern after the etching was optically examined and analyzed. The rate and phenomenon of the etching on each metallic layer were investigated with the diverse process condition such as ion-beam acceleration energy, current density, and etching time.
