  • 최근 많은 산업의 발전으로 인해 환경오염을 유발시키는 폐수가 다량으로 배출되고 있으며, 이러한 폐수 속에는 유기용매, 고분자 물질 및 각종 염 등의 난분해성 물질들이 다량으로 함유되어 있다. 이런 물질들을 분해시키기 위해 물리적, 생물학적 수처리 방법이 많이 이용되고 있지만 이 방법들은 각각 운전비용과 처리비용이 고가인 단점이 있다. 따라서 비용과 효율 측면에서 효과적인 폐수처리를 위해서 전기화학적 폐수처리 방법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 물리적, 생물학적 처리 방법에 비해 비용이 적게 들고, 처리 후 잔류물이 남지 않으며. 독성을 띄는 산화제의 첨가 없이도 높은 폐수처리 능력을 보이기 때문에 친환경적이므로, 전기화학적 폐수산화 처리에 사용되는 불용성 전극에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되어져 오고 있다. 그 중 BDD(Boron-doped diamond) 전극은 표면에서 강력한 산화제인 수산화 라디칼의 높은 발생량으로 인해 뛰어난 폐수처리 능력을 보이므로 불용성 전극 분야에서 활발한 연구가 진행 중이다. 그러나 기존에 BDD 전극의 기판 모재로 이용되던 Si, W, Pb등은 모두 기계적 강도. 폐수처리 능력 및 독성 문제로 인해 한계가 있었고, 특히 Nb기판 위에 형성시킨 BDD 전극은 뛰어난 폐수처리 능력에도 불구하고 비싼 모재 원가로 인해 상용화가 힘든 실정이다. 이런 문제점을 해결하기 위해 높은 기계적 강도와 전기화학적 안정성을 가진 Ti 기판을 사용한 BDD 전극에 대한 연구가 보고되고 있다. 그러나 BDD와 Ti 간의 lattice mismatch, BDD층 형성을 위한 고온 공정 시 탄소의 확산으로 인한 기판 표면에서의 TiC층 형성으로 인해 접착력이 감소하여 박리가 생기는 문제점이 있다. BDD와 Ti의 접착력을 향상시키기 위해 융점이 높고, 전기전도성이 우수한 TiN을 diffusion barrier layer로 삽입하면 탄소 확산에 의한 TiC층의 생성을 억제하여, 내부응력에 기인한 접착력 감소를 방지할 수 있다. 또 하나의 방법으로 Ti 기판의 전처리를 통해 BDD층의 접착력을 향상 시킬 수 있다. Sanding과 etching을 통해 기판 표면의 물리, 화학적인 표면조도를 부여하고, seeding을 통해 diamond 결정 성장에 도움을 주는 seed 입자를 분포시킴으로써, 중간층과 BDD층의 접착력을 향상시키고, BDD 결정핵 성장을 촉진시켜 고품질의 BDD박막 증착이 가능하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 Si, Nb 등의 기판 모재를 Ti로 대체함으로써 제조원가를 절감시키고, TiN 중간층을 삽입하여 접착력을 향상시킴으로써 기존의 BDD 전극과 동등한 수준의 물성 및 수처리 특성을 가진 BDD전극 제작을 목표로 하였다. $25{\times}25mm$의 Ti 기판위에 TiN 중간층을 DC magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 증착 후, BDD 전극 층을 HFCVD로 증착하였다. 전처리를 진행한 기판과 중간층 및 BDD층의 미세구조를 XRD로 분석하였고, 표면 형상을 SEM으로 확인하였다. BDD전극의 접착력 분석을 통해 TiN 중간층의 최적 조성을 도출하고, 최종적으로 BDD/TiN/Ti 전극의 CV특성과 가폐수의 COD분해능력 및 축산폐수, 선박평형수 등의 실제 폐수 처리 능력을 BDD/Si, BDD/Nb 전극과 비교 검토할 것이다.

  • In this paper, we propose a temperature independent the detective voltage source in voltage detector. The value of a detective voltage source is designed to become m times of silicon bandgap voltage at zero absolute temperature. By properly choosing the temperature coefficient of diode, the temperature coefficient of a concave voltage nonlinearities generated by the ${\Delta}V_{BE}$ section of diode between base and emitter of transistors with a different area can be summed with convex nonlinearities the $V_{BE}$ voltage to achieve the near zero temperature coefficient of the detective voltage source. We designed that the value of a detective voltage can be varied by ${\Delta}V_{BE}$, the $V_{BE}$multiplier circuit and resistor. In order to verify the performance of a proposed detective voltage source, we manufactured the voltage detector IC for 1.9V which is fabricated in $6{\mu}m$ Bipolar technology and measured the operating characteristics, the temperature coefficient of a detective voltage. To reduce the deviation of a detective voltage in the IC process step, we introduced a trimming technology, ion implantation and an isotropic etching. In manufactured IC, the detective voltage source could achieve the stable temperature coefficient of 29ppm/$^{\circ}C$ over the temperature range of -30$^{\circ}C$ to 70$^{\circ}C$. The current consumption of a voltage detector constituted by the proposed detective voltage source is $10{\mu}A$ from 1.9V-supply voltage at room temperature.

  • 본 연구는 균질 및 2개층 비균질지반에서 사질토지반 상에 놓인 정방형 기초의 극한지지력과 침하에 대하여 고찰하였다. 본 연구는 얕은기초의 거동에 대한 정방형 기초의 크기, 지반 상대밀도, 기초 폭에 대한 상부층의 두께 비(H/B), 상부층 아래 경계면의 경사($\theta$) 그리고 지반강성비의 영향을 규명하기 위하여 모형실험을 수행하였다. 동일 상대밀도에서 지지력 계수($N_{{\gamma}}$)는 일정하지 않으며 기초 폭에 직접적으로 관련되며 지지력계수는 기초 폭이 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 기초크기의 영향과 구속압력의 영향을 고려하는 Ueno 방법에 의한 극한지지력의 예측값은 고전적인 지지력 산정식보다 더 잘 일치하며 그 값은 실험값의 65% 이상으로 나타났다. $\theta$=$0^{\circ}$인 2개층 지반의 결과에 근거하여, 극한지지력에 대한 하부층 지반의 영향을 무시할 수 있는 한계 상부층 두께는 기초 폭의 2배로 결정되었다. 그러나, 73%의 상부층 상대밀도인 경우는 침하비($\delta$B) 0.05 이하에서만 이 결과가 유효하였다. 경계면이 경사진 2개층 지반의 결과에 근거하여, 상부층의 상대밀도가 느슨할수록 그리고 상부층의 두께가 클수록 극한지지력에 대한 경계면 경사의 영향은 크지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 경계면의 경사가 증가함에 따른 극한침하량의 변화는 경계면이 수평인 경우($\theta$=$0^{\circ}$)를 기준으로 0.82~1.2(상부층 $D_{r}$=73%인 경우) 그리고 0.9~1.07(상부층 $D_{r}$=50%인 경우) 정도로 나타났다.Markup Language 문서로부터 무선 마크업 언어 문서로 자동 변환된 텍스트를 인코딩하는 경우와 같이 특정한 응용 분야에서는 일반 문자열에 대한 확장 인코딩 기법을 적용할 필요가 있을 수 있다.mical etch-stop method for the etching of Si in TMAH:IPA;pyrazine solutions provides a powerful and versatile alternative process for fabricating high-yield Si micro-membranes. the RSC circle, but also to the logistics system in the SLC circle.

  • The direct wafer bonding between n-InP(001) wafer and the ${Si}_3N_4$(200 nm) film grown on the InP wafer by PECVD method was investigated. The surface states of InP wafer and ${Si}_3N_4$/InP which strongly depend upon the direct wafer bonding strength between them when they are brought into contact, were characterized by the contact angle measurement technique and atomic force microscopy. When InP wafer was etched by $50{\%}$ HF, contact angle was $5^{\circ}$ and RMS roughness was $1.54{\AA}$. When ${Si}_3N_4$ was etched by ammonia solution, RMS roughness was $3.11{\AA}$. The considerable amount of initial bonding strength between InP wafer and ${Si}_3N_4$/InP was observed when the two wafer was contacted after the etching process by $50{\%}$ HF and ammonia solution respectively. The bonded specimen was heat treated in $H^2$ or $N^2$, ambient at the temperature of $580^{\circ}C$-$680^{\circ}C$ for lhr. The bonding state was confirmed by SAT(Scannig Acoustic Tomography). The bonding strength was measured by shear force measurement of ${Si}_3N_4$/InP to InP wafer increased up to the same level of PECVD interface. The direct wafer bonding interface and ${Si}_3N_4$/InP PECVD interface were chracterized by TEM and AES.

  • In this study, oxygen functional groups were introduced on activated carbon fibers (ACFs) by oxygen plasma treatment to improve the adsorption performance on an acetic acid which is a sick house syndrome induced gas. The active species was generated more as the flow rate of the oxygen gas increased during the plasma treatment. For this reason, the specific surface area (SSA) of the ACFs decreased with much more physical and chemical etching. In particular, the SSA of the sample (A-O60) injected with an oxygen gas flow rate of 60 sccm was reduced to about $1.198m^2/g$, which was about 6.95% lower than that of the untreated samples. On the other hand, the oxygen content introduced into the surface of ACFs increased up to 35.87%. Also, the adsorption performance on the acetic acid gas of the oxygen plasma-treated ACFs was improved by up to 43% compared to that of using the untreated ACFs. It is attributed to the formation of the hydrogen bonding due to the dipole moments between acetic acid molecules and oxygen functional groups such as O=C-O introduced by the oxygen plasma treatment.

  • Formaldehyde is an indoor pollutant that is harmful to humans, such as causing respiratory and skin diseases. Nitrogen plasma treatment was performed to introduce nitrogen groups on the surface of the activated carbon fibers (ACFs), and the adsorption characteristics of formaldehyde for the surface-modified ACFs were considered. As the nitrogen gas flow rate increased, the content of nitrogen functional groups introduced to the surface of the ACFs increased by about 7%, and the ratio of nitrogen functional groups to each type present was similar. Ultramicropores increased on the ACFs surface due to the etching effect of plasma treatment. The adsorption efficiency of formaldehyde on the modified ACFs surface was also enhanced. However, under the nitrogen flow rate of 120 sccm or more, the surface of the ACFs was excessively etched, and the specific surface area and the formaldehyde adsorption capacity decreased. Therefore, the content of the nitrogen groups is the main factor in the adsorption of formaldehyde on the nitrogen plasma-treated ACFs, but it can be found that the adsorption efficiency of formaldehyde is improved when the ACFs have a suitable pore structure.

  • In general, the fabrications of the LEDs with mesa structure are performed grown by MOCVD method. In order to etch and separate each chips, the LEDs are passed the RIE and scribing processes. The RIE process using plasma dry etching occur some problems such as defects, dislocations and the formation of dangling bond in surface result in decline of device characteristic. The SAG method has attracted considerable interest for the growth of high quality GaN epi layer on the sapphire substrate. In this paper, the SAG method was introduced for simplification and fabrication of the high quality epi layer. And we report that the size of selective area do not affect the characteristics of original LED. The diameter of SAG circle patterns were choose as 2500, 1000, 350, and 200 ${\mu}m$. The SAG-LEDs were measured to obtain the device characteristics using by SEM, EL and I-V. The main emission peaks of 2500, 1000, 350, and 200 ${\mu}m$ were 485, 480, 450, and 445 nm respectively. The chips of 350, 200 ${\mu}m$ diameter were observed non-uniform surface and resistance was higher than original LED, however, the chips of 2500, 1000 ${\mu}m$ diameter had uniform surface and current-voltage characteristics were better than small sizes. Therefore, we suggest that the suitable diameter which do not affect the characteristic of original LED is more than 1000 ${\mu}m$.

  • The surface of polystyrene membrane treated by Ar, $O_2$ plasma, and the effects were observed before and after the treatment and permeability of $CO_2$, $N_2$ and selectivity of $CO_2$ relative to $N_2$ was measured using continuous flow gas permeation analyzer (GPA). The mole ratio of O over C in the surface was increased from 0 to 0.179 with Ar plasma treatment and route mean square of surface was increased from $15.86{\AA}$ to $71.64{\AA}$. Therefore the contact angle was decreased from $89.16^{\circ}$ to $18.1^{\circ}$. Thus Plasma treatments made surface of membrane tend to be highly hydrophilic. The optimum condition for the $CO_2$ permeability and ideal selectivity of the plasma treated membrane was as follows: the measurement of Ar (60 W, 2 min, $70^{\circ}C$) plasma treatment was $1.14{\times}10^{-12}[m^3(STP){\cdot}m/m^2{\cdot}sec{\cdot}atm]$ and 4.22. In the case of $O_2$ plasma treatment, the contact angle was decreased at $13.56^{\circ}$ with increase of O/C ratio ($0.189{\AA}$) and route mean square of surface ($57.10{\AA}$). The optimum condition for the $CO_2$ permeability and ideal selectivity of the plasma treated membrane was as follows: the measurement of $O_2$ (90 W, 2 min, $70^{\circ}C$) plasma treatment was $7.1{\times}10^{-12}[m^3(STP){\cdot}m/m^2{\cdot}sec{\cdot}atm]$ and 11.5. After plasma treatment, the changes of membrane surface were all subtly linked with both cross-linking and etching effects. Finally, it was confirmed that the gas permeation capacity and selectivity of the modified membrane with plasma could be improved by an appropriate control of the plasma conditions such as treatment time, the power input and sort of plasma gas.
