현재 초소형 정밀기계(MEMS;Microelectromechanical System) 소자의 가장 큰 문제점으로 대두되고 있는 점착현상을 방지하기 위하여 불화유기박막을 증착하였다. Octafluorocyclobutane(C$_4$F$_{8}$)을 소스가스를 PECVD (Plasma Enhanced CVD)와 ICP (Inductively Coupled Plasma)를 이용하여 증착하였다. 여기에 Ar을 첨가하여 플라즈마의 반응성을 높여주었다. 형성된 불화유기박막의 나노트라이볼러지 특성을 살펴보기 위하여 AFM을 통하여 증착시킨 시편의 topography를 살펴보았다. 그리고 박막의 antiadhesion의 정도를 살펴보기 위하여 cantilever와 박막의 표면 사이에 존재하는 interaction force를 측정 하였고 AFM의 force curve mode를 이용하였다 PECVB를 이용하여 증착된 박막은 ICP를 이용한 박막보다 균일하지 못한 박막을 보였으며 attractive force가 강한 것으로 사료된다.

Plasma processing is an essential process for pattern etching and thin film deposition in nanoscale semiconductor device fabrication. It is necessary to maintain plasma chamber in steady-state in production. In this study, we determined plasma chamber state with residual gas analysis with self-plasma optical emission spectroscopy. Residual gas monitoring of fluorocarbon plasma etching chamber was performed with self-plasma optical emission spectroscopy (SPOES) and various chemical elements was identified with a SPOES system which is composed of small inductive coupled plasma chamber for glow discharge and optical emission spectroscopy monitoring system for measuring optical emission. This work demonstrates that chamber state can be monitored with SPOES and this technique can potentially help maintenance in production lines.

The objective of this study was to determine the effects of low temperature plasma on the surface properties of polyester fabric with respect to wettability and water repellency. Highly wettable polyester fabric surfaces were obtained by oxygen treatment. The improved wettabililty of oxygen plasma treated fabrics decreased with aging time up to 30 days, and then the wettability remained relatively constant and still exhibited significant improvement compared to that of untreated polyester. Water repellency was significantly improved by tetratfluorocarbon plasma treatment. Such an improvement appears due to introduced fluo\ulcornerrine atoms or a thin fluorocarbon film on the fiber surface. Water repellency remained constant in fact, even after 150 days.

Friction and wear affect all processes involved in the extraction of materials and their conversion into finished products in the die applications such as drawing, extrusion etc. Originating phenomenon from the contact surface between the tool and workpiece, they are usually a hindrance to materials process operations which usually result in damaging the tools, increasing energy consumption, the contamination of processed material by wear particles and also some problems associated with technologies to control friction and wear. The most well established method to control friction and wear is by the application of lubricant such as fluorocarbon. Besides, a surface technique so-called surface modification can be applied to solve the tribology problems of the die applications for both the economical and ecological reasons. In this article, we applied DLC(diamond-like carbon) thin film on alumina ceramic for HT test using the PIID(plasma ion immersion deposition), 4 groups of test specimens were tested up to $200^{\circ}C$ which is a little higher than the normal working temperature of die application. Pin-on-disc tribo-tester was used to test the friction and surfaces were characterized by SEM and EDS and else, the morphology changes of DLC coatings were studied. The present work indicated that the DLC had a great potential to reduce the friction and wear in the alumina die application without lubricants.

We have treated polyester fabric with $CF_4,\;C_2F_6,\;SF_6\;and\;C_3F_6$ glow discharge plasmas to develop functional fabrics which preserve moisture transportation and water proofing nature. Modified properties were evaluated by water vapor permeation rate and breakthrough water pressure. The change of surface morphology was observed by SEM. Fiber interstice of the plasma treated fabric was calculated as $0.32{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and this value was sufficiently ideal as water repellent material. The moisture transportation of ${CF_4}-treated$ fabric was good as much as untreated fabric, and those of $C_2$F(sub)6-treated, SF(sub)6-treated fabrics were reduced by 1~3%, and that of ${C_3F_6}-treated$ fabric was reduced by 15%. The best treatment condition were 0.06 torr 120 seconds in $CF_4$, 0.05 torr 30 seconds in $SF_6$, 0.08~0.15 torr 90 seconds in $SF_6$ and 0.1 torr 45 seconds in $C_3F_6$ respectively. The grade of moisture transportation effect was $CF_4>C_2F_6>SF_6>>C_3F_6$, and water proofing effect was $C_2F_6{\approx}CF_4>C_3F_6>SF_6$. It was observed by SEM that the thin film was formed on the surface of the treated substrate by the fluorocarbon plasma treatment.

The effects of reactive ion etching (RIE) of $SiO_2$ layer in $CHF_3/C_2F_6$ on the underlying Si surface have been studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), secondary ion mass spectrometer, Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. We found that two distinguishable modified layers are formed by RIE : (i) a uniform residue surface layer of 4 nm thickness composed entirely of carbon, fluorine, oxygen, and hydrogen with 9 different kinds of chemical bonds and (ii) a contaminated silicon layer of about 50 nm thickness with carbon and fluorine atoms without any observable crystalline defects. To search the removal condition of the silicon surface residue, we monitored the changes of surface compositions for the etched silicon after various post treatments as rapid thermal anneal, $O_2$, $NF_3$, $SF_6$, and $Cl_2$ plasma treatments. XPS analysis revealed that $NF_3$ treatment is most effective. With 10 seconds exposure to $NF_3$ plasma, the fluorocarbon residue film decomposes. The remained fluorine completely disappears after the following wet cleaning.

반도체 산업에서 회로의 고집적화와 다층구조를 형성하기 위해 화학적-기계적 연마(CMP: Chemical-Mechanical Planarization) 공정이 도입되었으며 반도체 패턴의 미세화와 다층화에 따라 화학적-기계적 연마 공정의 중요성은 더욱 강조되고 있다. 화학적-기계적 연마공정이란 화학적 반응과 기계적 힘을 동시에 이용하여 표면을 평탄화하는 공정으로, 화학적-기계적 연마 공정은 압력, 속도 등의 공정조건과, 화학적 반응을 유도하는 슬러리(Slurry), 기계적 힘을 위한 패드 등에 의해 복합적으로 영향을 받는다. 패드 컨디셔닝이란 컨디셔너가 화학적-기계적 연마 공정 중에 지속적으로 패드 표면을 연마하여 패드의 손상된 부분을 제거하고 새로운 표면을 노출시켜 패드의 상태를 일정하게 유지시키는 것을 말한다. 한편, 금속박막의 화학적-기계적 연마 공정에 사용되는 슬러리는 금속박막과 산화반응을 하기 위하여 산화제를 포함하는데, 산화제는 금속 컨디셔너 표면을 산화시켜 부식을 야기한다. 컨디셔너의 표면부식은 반도체 수율에 직접적인 영향을 줄 수 있는 스크래치(Scratch) 등을 발생시킬 뿐만 아니라, 컨디셔너의 수명도 저하시키게 되므로 이를 방지하기 위한 노력이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 컨디셔너 표면에 슬러리와 컨디셔너 표면 간에 일어나는 표면부식을 방지하기 위하여 유기박막을 표면에 증착하여 부식을 방지하고자 하였다. 컨디셔너 제작에 사용되는 금속인 니켈과 니켈 합금을 기판으로 하고, 증착된 유기박막으로는 자기조립단분자막(SAM: Self-Assembled Monolayer)과 불화탄소(FC: FluoroCarbon) 박막을 증착하였다. 자기조립단분자막은 2가지 전구체(Perfluoroctyltrichloro silane(FOTS), Dodecanethiol(DT))를 사용하여 기상 자기조립 단분자막 증착(Vapor SAM) 방법으로 증착하였고, 불화탄소막은 10 nm, 50 nm, 100 nm 두께로 PE-CVD(Plasma Enhanced-Chemical Vapor Deposition, SRN-504, Sorona, Korea) 방법으로 증착하여 표면의 부식특성을 평가하였다. 표면 부식 특성은 동전위분극법(Potentiodynamic Polarization)과 전기화학적 임피던스 측정법(Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy(EIS)) 등의 전기화학 분석법을 사용하여 평가되었다. 또한 측정된 임피던스 데이터를 전기적 등가회로(Electrical Equivalent Circuit) 모델에 적용하여 부식 방지 효율을 계산하였다. 동전위분극법과 EIS의 결과 분석으로부터 유기박막이 증착된 표면의 부식전류밀도가 감소하고, 임피던스가 증가하는 것을 확인하였다.
