본 연구에서는 DC/RF co-sputtering공법을 통해 제작한 In-Mo-O 투명 Mo doping 농도 및 열처리 온도에 따른 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 특성을 분석하고, 최적화된 In-Mo-O 투명전극을 유기태양전지(OPVs)와 유기발광다이오드(OLED)에 적용하여 그 가능성을 평가하였다. Mo doping 농도는 co-sputtering 공정 중 MoO3에 인가되는 radio-frequency (RF) power를 변화시켜 조절되었으며, 투명전극의 광학적 특성 및 전기적 특성 향상을 위해 성막 공정 후 급속 열처리 공정을 온도 별로 진행하였다. In-Mo-O 투명 전극은 Mo 도핑 농도에 영향을 받음을 확인할 수 있었고, 최적화된 Mo doping 파워에서 성막한 In-Mo-O 박막은 급속 열처리 공정 후 면저항 24.57 Ohm/square, 투과도 81.57% (400~1,200 nm wavelength)를 나타내었다. Bulk hetero-junction 기반의 고효율 유기태양전지와 유기발광다이오드 적용하기 위해 본 연구에서 제작된 IMO 투명전극의 구조적 특성, 결정성 및 표면특성은 x-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy(AFM), field effect scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) 분석을 통해 진행하였다. In-Mo-O 투명 전극상에 제작된 OLEDs와 OPV는 reference ITO 전극에 제작된 OLEDs/OPV와 비교할 때 유사하거나 향상된 특성을 나타내었으며 이는 In-Mo-O 박막이 OLED/OPV용 투명 전극으로 적용이 가능함을 말해준다.

The electrical characteristics of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film transistor (TFT) crystallized by excimer laser annealing (ELA) method were evaluated, The polycrystalline silicon thin-film transistor (poly-Si TFT) has higher electric field-effect-mobility and larger drivability than the amorphous silicon TFT. However, to poly-Si TFT's using conventional processes, the temperature must be very high. For this reason, an amorphous silicon film on a buried oxide was crystallized by annealing with a KrF excimer laser (248 nm)to fabricate a poly-Si film at low temperature. Then, High permittivity $HfO_2$ of 20 nm as the gate-insulator was deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) to low temperature process. In addition, the solid phase crystallization (SPC) was compared to the ELA method as a crystallization technique of amorphous-silicon film. As a result, the crystallinity and surface roughness of poly-Si crystallized by ELA method was superior to the SPC method. Also, we obtained excellent device characteristics from the Poly-Si TFT fabricated by the ELA crystallization method.

We demonstrate that the performance of amorphous indium-gallium-zinc-oxide (IGZO) thin-film transistors (TFT) can be optimized by controlling the interfaces between IGZO and sandwiching insulators and by proper deposition of IGZO layer. Specifically, contact and channel resistances are decreased by reducing IGZO bulk resistance and optimizing dry-etch process, respectively. Field-effect mobility ($\mu_{FE}$) and subthreshold gate swing (S) are further enhanced by fine-tuning IGZO deposition condition.

The new process for hybrid silicon thin film transistor (TFT) using DPSS laser has been developed for realizing both low-temperature poly-Si (LTPS) TFT and a-Si:H TFT on the same substrate as a backplane of active matrix liquid crystal display. LTPS TFTs are integrated on the peripheral area of the panel for gate driver integrated circuit and a-Si:H TFTs are used as a switching device for pixel in the active area. The technology has been developed based on the current a-Si:H TFT fabrication process without introducing ion-doping and activation process and the field effect mobility of $4{\sim}5\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ and $0.5\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ for each TFT was obtained. The low power consumption, high reliability, and low photosensitivity are realized compared with amorphous silicon gate driver circuit and are demonstrated on the 14.1 inch WXGA+ ($1440{\times}900$) LCD Panel.

Passivation of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) using organic and metal thin-film was presented. Parylene-C and titanium were used as an organic and metal layer, respectively. With the proposed passivation method the degradation of electric parameters of OTFTs was relieved compared with non-passivated devices. Several electric parameters such as on/off current, field-effect mobility, and threshold voltage were shown.

The long-term stability of pentacene thin-film transistors (TFTs) encapsulated with a transparent $SnO_2$ thin-film prepared by ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) was investigated. With a buffer layer of thermally evaporated 100 nm $SnO_2$ film deposited prior to IBAD process, our encapsulated OTFTs sustained its initial field-effect mobility up to one month and then gradually degraded showing only 37% reduction compared to 90% reduction of non-encapsulated OTFTs after 100 days in air ambient. The encapsulated OTFTs also exhibited superior on/off current ratio of over $10^5$ to that of the unprotected devices $({\sim}10^4)$ which was reduced from ${\sim}10^6$ before aging. Therefore, the enhanced long-term stability of our encapsulated OTFTs should be attributed to well protection of permeation of $H_2O$ and $O_2$ into the devices by the IBAD $SnO_2$ thin-film which could be used as an effective inorganic gas barrier for transparent organic electronic devices.

The new organic semiconductor, which is composed of a divinylbenzene core unit and alkoxynaphthalene on both sides, 1,4-bis-2-(6-hexyloxy)naphthalen-2-yl-vinylbenzene, was synthesized via Wittig reaction. The obtained oligomer was characterized via FT-IR, mass and elemental analysis, UV-visible spectroscopy, cyclovoltammetry, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The vacuum-evaporated film was characterized via X-ray diffraction and atomicforce microscopy (AFM). It formed a highly ordered polycrystalline vacuum-evaporated film and exhibited a good field-effect performance, with a hole mobility of $0.015cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, an on/off ratio of $1.18{\times}10^5$, and a subthreshold slope of 0.69 V when it was deposited at Ts=$90^{\circ}C$ on HMDS-treated $SiO_2$.

We report on the fabrication of P3HT-based thin-film transistors (TFTs) for liquid crystal display that consist of $NiO_x$, poly-vinyl phenol (PVP), and Ni for the source-drain (S/D) electrodes, gate dielectric layer, and gate electrode, respectively The $NiO_x$ S/D electrodes of which the work function is well matched to that of P3HT are deposited on a P3HT channel by electron-beam evaporation of NiO powder. The maximum saturation current of our P3HT-based TFT is about $15{\mu}A$ at a gate bias of -30 V showing a high field effect mobility of $0.079cm^2/Vs$ in the dark, and the on/off current ratio of our TFT is about $10^5$. It is concluded that jointly adopting $NiO_x$ for the S/D electrodes and PVP for gate dielectric realizes a high-quality P3HT-based TFT.

Polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (poly-Si TFTs) are used in a wide variety of applications, and will figure prominently future high-resolution, high-performance flat panel display technology However, it was very difficult to fabricate high performance poly-Si TFTs at a temperature lower than 300$^{\circ}C$ for glass substrate. Conventional process on a glass substrate were limited temperature less than 600$^{\circ}C$ This paper proposes a high temperature process above 750$^{\circ}C$ using a flexible molybdenum substrate deposited hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) and than crystallized a rapid thermal processor (RTP) at the various temperatures from 750$^{\circ}C$ to 1050$^{\circ}C$. The high temperature annealed poly-Si film illustrated field effect mobility higher than 30 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs, achieved I$\sub$on//I$\sub$off/ current ratio of 10$^4$ and crystall volume fraction of 92%. In this paper, we introduce the new TFTs Process as flexible substrate very promising roll-to-roll process, and exhibit the properties of high temperature crystallized poly-Si Tn on molybdenum substrate.
