In this paper, we intend to make FFS mode cell with LC alignment used non-rubbing method, ion beam alignment method on the a-C:H thin film, to analyze electro-optical characteristics in this cell. We studied on the suitable inorganic thin film for FFS-LCD and the aligning capabilities of nematic liquid crystal (NLC) using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film as working gas at rf bias condition. A high pretilt angle of about 5$^{\circ}$ by ion beam(IB) exposure on the a-C:H thin film surface was measured. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) and response time curve of the ion-beam-aligned FFS-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the DLC thin films.

A new method to measure residual stress in micron and nano scale films is described. In the theory it is based on Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics. And in the techniques it depends on the combined capability of the focused ion beam (FIB) imaging system and of high-resolution digital image correlation (DIC) software. The method can be used for any film material (whether amorphous or crystalline) without thinning the substrate. In the method, a region of the film surface is highlighted and scanning electron images of that region taken before and after a long slot, depth a, is introduced using the FIB. The DIC software evaluates the displacement of the surface normal to the slot due to the stress relaxation by using features on the film surface. To minimize the influence of signal noise and rigid body movement, not a few, but all of the measure displacements are used for determining the real residual stress. The accuracy of the method has been assessed by performing measurements on a nano film of diamond like carbon (DLC) on glass substrate and on micro film of aluminum oxide thermally grown on Fecrally substrate. It is shown that the new method determines the residual stress ${\sigma}_R=-1.73$ GPa for DLC and ${\sigma}_R=-5.45$ GPa for the aluminum oxide, which agree quite well with ones measured independently.

An optical lens is usually produced in the manner of high temperature compression molding with tungsten carbide alloy molding cores, it is necessary to develop and study technology for super-precision processing of molding cores and coating the core surface. As main methods used in surface improvement technologies using thin film, DLC present high hardness, chemical stability, and outstanding durability of abrasion to be extensively applied in various industrial fields. In this study, the effect of DLC coating of a thin film by means of the FVAS (filtered vacuum arc source) analyzed the characteristics of thin film. Surface roughness before and after DLC coating was measured and the result showed that the surface roughness was improved after coating as compared to before coating. In conclusion, it was observed that DLC coating of the ultra hard alloy core surface for molding had an effect on improving the surface roughness and shape of the core surface. It is considered that this will have an effect on improving abrasion resistance and the service life of the core surface.

Generally, diamond-like carbon films (a-C:H, DLC) have been shown to have a low coefficient of friction, a high hardness and a low wear rate. Pd-doped C thin film was fabricated using a dual magnetron sputtering with two targets of graphite and palladium. Graphite target RF power was fixed and palladium target RF power was varied. The structural, physical, and surface properties of the deposited thin film were investigated, and the correlation among these properties was examined. The doping ratio of Pd increased as the RF power increased, and the surface roughness of the thin film decreased somewhat as the RF power increased. In addition, the hardness value of the thin film increased, and the adhesive strength was improved. It was confirmed that the value of the contact angle indicating the surface energy increases as the RF power increases. It was concluded that the increase in RF power contributed to the improvement of the physical properties of Pd-doped C thin film.

RF-PECVD(radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition)법을 이용하여 $CH_4+SiH_4+Ar$ 혼합 가스로부터 유리 기판 위에 투명 다이아몬드상 카본(diamond-like carbon, DLC)을 합성하였다. 공정압력과 rf-파워, $CH_4/SiH_4/Ar$ 혼합비, 그리고 증착 시간은 각각 0.1 torr, 100W, 20 : 1 : 1, 20분이었다. DLC가 증착된 유리와 증착되지 않은 유리의 투과도를 가시광선 영역에서 비교하였고, DLC가 증착된 유리의 경도, 표면 조도와 두께를 nanoindenter와 AFM으로 측정하였다. DLC가 증착된 유리의 투과도는 증착되지 않은 유리와 비교할 때 380 nm 파장에서 약 83 %, 500 nm 이상의 파장에서는 95 % 이상 수준이었다. DLC가 증착된 유리의 경도는 증착되지 않은 유리의 약 2.5배이었다. 증착된 DLC 박막은 매우 고른 표면을 보였으며 20분 증착 후 두께는 150 nm 이상으로 나타났다.

평균입자크기가 서로 다른 WC-Co계 모재위에 고온 열처리법과 화학적 에칭방법을 이용하여 다이아몬드 막을 코팅하고 압흔법을 통해 그 접착력(adhesion strength)을 평가하였다. $1450^{\circ}C$의 고온 열처리 방법에 의해 준비된 WC-Co 시편표면에서는 WC 입자가 성장하였으며, 그 결과 20$\mu$m 이상의 다이아몬드 막이 증착된 경우에도 100kg의 하중에서도 우수한 접착력이 얻어졌다. 그러나, 모재 표면입자의 과도한 입성장으로 시편 인선부에는 변형이 발생하였으며, 증착된 다이아몬드 막은 거친 표면조도를 보였다. 이와 비교하여, 화학적 부식의 경우에는 submicron 크기의 WC 입자를 제외하고, 2$\mu$m 이상의 WC 입자를 가지는 모재를 이용하여 10$\mu$m의 다이아몬드 코팅막을 증착시킨 경우에는, 60kg의 하중에서도 양호한 접착력이 유지되었다 특히, WC 입자가 클수록 접착력의 신뢰성이 대폭 향상되었다. 이는 수 $\mu$m 이내의 비교적 얇은 두께의 다이아몬드 막을 증착하는 경우 화학적 에칭방법이 시편 형상의 변형을 방지하고, 양호한 표면조도를 얻을 수 있어 고온 열처리 방식에 비해 효과적임을 의미한다.

Ar/$CH_4$ 마이크로웨이브 플라즈마 하에서 나노결정다이아몬드 박막의 미세구조 형성 과정에 대하여 연구하였다. 실리콘 기판 위에 불균일 핵생성을 위해 만든 스크래치 자리에 생성된 나노결정 크기의 다이아몬드 입자는 시간의 경과에 따라 성장하고 이웃하고 있는 입자들 간에 접촉이 일어나 표면을 완전히 채우게 되면 다이아몬드 박막이 형성되고 지속적인 박막 두께의 성장이 일어나게 된다. 입자들의 높이(혹은 직경)는 증착시간의 제곱근에 비례하는 것으로 나타났다.

The diamond-like carbon(DLC) film, as an antireflection layer, is coated on a commerically used Ge window. DLC films are deposited by using an rf(13.56 MHz) plasma CVD. The optimal value of thickness and refractive index of DLC layer has been determined from the computer simulation. IR-transmittances of DLC-coated Ge windows are estimated by measuring FTIR spectra in the wavelength range of$ 2.5{\sim}25{\mu}m$. By coating the DLC film on one side of the Ge window, the transmittance measured at a wavelength of $10{\mu}m$ is about 60 %, while that of the bare Ge is lower than 50 %. Also, a higher transmittance up to about 90 % is obtained by coating the DLC film on both sides of the window. It may be suggested that the further improvement of the IR-transmittance can be achieved by more precisely controlling the thickness and the refractive index of DLC layer and also by adopting various muliti-layer antireflection structures.
