Fluorine-doped $SnO_2$ (FTO) thin film/Ag nanowire (NW) double layers were fabricated by means of spin coating and ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. To investigate the optimum thickness of the FTO thin films when used as protection layer for Ag NWs, the deposition time of the ultrasonic spray pyrolysis process was varied at 0, 1, 3, 5, or 10 min. The structural, chemical, morphological, electrical, and optical properties of the double layers were examined using X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, the Hall effect measurement system, and UV-Vis spectrophotometry. Although pure Ag NWs formed isolated droplet-shaped Ag particles at an annealing temperature of $300^{\circ}C$, Ag NWs covered by FTO thin films maintained their high-aspect-ratio morphology. As the deposition time of the FTO thin films increased, the electrical and optical properties of the double layers degraded gradually. Therefore, the double layer fabricated with FTO thin films deposited for 1 min exhibited superb sheet resistance (${\sim}14.9{\Omega}/{\Box}$), high optical transmittance (~88.6 %), the best FOM (${\sim}19.9{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}^{-1}$), and excellent thermal stability at an annealing temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ owing to the good morphology maintenance of the Ag NWs covered by FTO thin films.

When used for broadcasting, multipurpose halls need to accommodate various types of programs such as speeches, Korean traditional music, musicals, pop music, and concerts. Therefore, multipurpose halls must meet a wide range of electric and architectural acoustic demands. However, there are few ways to alter acoustic environments for multipurpose halls, given these different demands. The current study investigates the effects of banners on acoustic environments in the presence of an acoustic shell or electric acoustic system. The results indicate that the installation of a 15% banner of wall area could vary the range of reverberation time ($T_{30}$) by 0.12 s, EDT (Early Decay Time) by 0.15 s, clarity of music ($C_{80}$) by 0.76 dB, and clarity of speech ($D_{50}$) by 6.43 % under different measurement circumstances. A computer simulation that enlarges the banner size to 40 % of the wall area varies the reverberation time from 0.11 s to 0.55 s depending on the room environment.

This study analyzes machining characteristics and presents optimal cutting conditions by measuring the surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness based on the feed rate after processing the inner diameter hall of SCM415 steel using an automatic CNC(Computerized Numerical Control) lathe. The testing material was cut using an 11.8 mm-diameter Chamdrill after mounting the 32 mm-diameter round bar on an automatic CNC lathe. The cut depth was set at 3 mm, and the cutting speed was fixed at 1500 rpm. The surface roughness, dimensional accuracy, and dimension straightness of 15 testings were measured by changing the feed rate to 0.05, 0.1, and 0.15 mm/rev, respectively. It was difficult to process more than 15 tests during the maching due to noise or break. Additionally, the optimum cutting of SCM415 steel showed excellent surface roughness in the 10^th and 11^th of testing at cutting speed and feed speed of 1500 rpm and 0.05 mm/rev, respectively. The dimensional accuracy was measured in three dimensions after drilling, which showed good results with an average range of 0.0138-0.0208 mm. Moreover, the lower the feed speed, the higher the accuracy. Additionally, the measurement results of the dimensional straightness showed that the straightness is the straightness was the best at the 1^th and 2^th cutting regardless of the feed speed.

Indium-doped Mg_0.05Zn_0.95O thin films were deposited on glass substrates by a sol-gel method. Three types of indium precursors such as indium chloride, indium acetate, and indium nitrate were used as doping sources. Physical properties of fabricated thin films were analyzed through XRD (x-ray diffraction), UV-vis spectrophotometer, Hall effect measurement, and EDS (energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy). All In-doped thin films grown in this study exhibited a preferred orientation of (002) with over 80% transmittance. The results showed that the Mg_0.05Zn_0.95O thin film from indium chloride as the indium precursor has higher crystallinity and transmittance with lower resistivity when compared with those from other indium precursors.

The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the CuInSe$_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CuInSe$_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 62$0^{\circ}C$ and 41$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of CuInSe$_2$ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.62$\times$10$^{16}$ cm$^{-3}$ , 296 $\textrm{cm}^2$/V.s at 293 K, respectively From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the CuInSe$_2$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting ΔSo and the crystal field splitting ΔCr were 6.1 meV and 175.2 meV at 10 K, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement on CuInSe$_2$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition (Ex) existing only high quality crystal and neutral bound exiciton (D$^{\circ}$,X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full-width-at -half-maximum(FWHM) and binding energy of neutral donor bound excition were 7 meV and 5.9 meV, respectivity. By Haynes rule, an activation energy of impurity was 59 meV.

The purpose of this study was to determine the basic materials needed for nutrition and health programs for aged people. In order to set up these programs, the nutritional habit, nutritional knowledge and functional health status (mobility, functional assessment, and falls efficacy) of the aged were measured, and their relationships were determined. Data was collected on 57 aged individuals that participated in the 'Exercise Program for the Aged' conducted by the National Health Insurance Corporation. These 57 subjects were interviewed and tested by direct measurement prior to conducting the program. The data was analyzed using the SPSS 13.0 Package. According to the results, the nutritional habit ranged from 24-50 out of 50, and the average was 37.2, which was above the middle level. The average nutritional knowledge was of 4.02 out of 5, which was considered reasonably high. Especially, more than half of these subjects were uneducated, but they had a high interest in nutrition. The average mobility was determined to be 9.2 seconds and the falls efficacy was 64.2 out of 100. In addition, subjects answered that they had a fear of falling due to low confidence, which indicates that safety education for the prevention of falls should be provided to aged individuals in the future. The results showed that notable counter-relations between nutritional habit and functional health status existed.

OLED 소자는 직접발광, 광시야각, 그리고 빠른 응답속도 때문에 동영상에 적합하여 최근 각광받고 있는 디스플레이장치 중의 하나이다. OLED 소자의 양극재료로는 높은 광투과율과 $\sim10^{-4}{\Omega}\;cm$ 수준의 낮은 전기 비저항을 갖는 ITO (Sn-doped $In_2O_3$)가 널리 사용되고 있다. 하지만 원료 물질인 인듐의 수급량 부족으로 인한 문제점과 독성, 저온증착의 어려움, 스퍼터링시 음이온 충격에 의한 막 손상으로 저항의 증가의 문제점이 있고, 또한 액정디스플레이의 투명전극으로 사용될 경우 $400\;^{\circ}C$정도의 높은 온도와 수소 플라즈마 분위기에서 장시간 노출 시 열화로 인한 광학적 특성변화가 문제가 된다. 반면에 Al이 도핑 된 ZnO (AZO)박막은 넓은 밴드갭 (3.37eV)와 400nm에서 700nm 사이의 가시광 영역에서 80% 이상의 우수한 투과성을 지니고 있다. 특히 Al이 도핑된 ZnO는 박막의 전기적 특성이 크게 향상되어 디스플레이나 태양전지로의 응용이 가능하다. 또한 비교적 낮은 비용과 플라즈마에서의 안정성, 무독성, 그리고 전기전도성과 같은 많은 이점이 있다. 그 결과 AZO 박막은 ITO기판을 대안하는 지원물질로 활발히 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 TCO 박막의 면 저항과 표면 거칠기에 따른 OLED 소자의 특성을 분석하였다. ITO와 AZO 박막은 챔버 내 다양한 가스 분위기(Ar, Ar+$O_2$ and Ar+$H_2$)에서 R.F Magnetron Sputtering방법으로 증착하였다. TCO 박막의 구조적인 이해를 돕기 위해서 X-ray diffraction 과 FESEM으로 분석하였다. 광학적 투과도와 박막의 두께는 ultraviolet spectrophotometer (Varian, cary-500)와 surface profile measurement system으로 각각 측정하였다. 면저항 charge carrier 농도, 그리고 TCO 박막의 이동도와 같은 전기적특성은 four-point probe와 hall effect measurement(HMS-3000)로 각각 측정하였다. TCO 박막의 표면 거칠기 조절을 위해 photo lithography 공정을 사용하여 TCO 박막을 화학에칭 하였다. 미세사이즈 패턴 마스크가 사용되었으며 에칭의 깊이는 에칭시간에 따라 조절하였다. TCO 박막의 표면 형태는 FESEM과 AFM으로 관찰하였다. 투명전극으로 사용되는 ITO 및 AZO 기판 상용화를 위해 ITO 및 AZO 기판 위에 ${\alpha}$-NPB, Alq3, LiF, Al 의 순서로 증착 및 패터닝함으로써 OLED 소자를 제작하였다. 전류밀도와 전압 그리고 발광휘도와 전압과 같은 전기적 특성은 spectrometer(minolta CS-1000A)를 이용하여 측정하였다.

Fabricated were ultra-shallow $p^+-n$ junctions on n-type Si(100) substrates using decaborane $(B_{10}H_{14})$ ion implantation. Decaborane ions were implanted at the acceleration voltages of 5 kV to 10 kV and at the dosages of $1\times10^{12}\textrm{cm}^2$.The implanted specimens were annealed at $800^{\circ}C$, $900^{\circ}C$ and $1000^{\circ}C$ for 10 s in $N_2$ atmosphere through a rapid thermal process. From the measurement of the implantation-induced damages through $2MeV^4 He^{2+}$ channeling spectra, the implanted specimen at the acceleration voltage of 15 kV showed higher backscattering yield than those of the bare n-type Si wafer and the implanted specimens at 5 kV and 10 kV. From the channeling spectra, the calculated thicknesses of amorphous layers induced by the ioin implantation at the acceleration voltages of 5 kV, 10 kV and 15 kV were 1.9 nm, 2.5 nm and 4.3 nm, respectively. After annealing at $800^{\circ}C$ for 10 s in $N_2$ atmosphere, most implantation-induced damages of the specimens implanted at the acceleration voltage of 10 kV were recovered and they exhibited the same channeling yield as the bare Si wafer. In this case, the calculated thickness of the amorphous layer was 0.98 nm. Hall measurements and sheet resistance measurements showed that the dopant activation increased with implantation energy, ion dosage and annealing temperature. From the current-voltage measurement, it is observed that leakage current density is decreased with the increase of annealing temperature and implantation energy.

OLED소자의 양극재료로써 현재는 산화인듐주석(ITO : indium tin oxide) 박막이 널리 이용되고 있다. 그러나 낮은 전기 비저항과 높은 투과도를 갖는 ITO 박막을 얻기 위해서는 $300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 고온에서 성막되어야 하며, 원료 물질인 인듐의 수급량 부족으로 인한 문제점과 독성, 저온증착의 어려움, 스퍼터링 시 음이온 충격에 의한 막 손상으로 저항의 증가의 문제점이 있고, 또한 유기발광소자의 투명전극으로 쓰일 경우에 유기물과의 계면 부적합성, 액정디스플레이의 투명전극으로 사용될 경우에 $400^{\circ}C$정도의 놓은 온도와 수소 플라즈마 분위기에서 장시간 노출 시 열화로 인한 광학적 특성변화가 문제가 된다. 이러한 문제점을 지닌 ITO 박막을 대체할 수 있는 물질로 산화 인듐아연(lZO) 박막이 많은 각광을 받고 있다. IZO(Indium Zinc Oxide) 박막은 저온 ($100^{\circ}C$ 이상)에서 증착이 가능하고 추가적인 열처리 없이도 가시광 영역에서 90% 이상의 광 투과도와 ${\sim}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ 이하의 낳은 전기 비저항을 갖는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 IZO박막은 성막 후 고온의 열처리 과정이 필요 없기 때문에 폴리카보네이트와 같은 유기물 기판을 사용하여 제작 가능한 유연한 평판형 표시 소자의 제작에도 적용될 수 있다. IZO(Indium Zinc Oxide) 박막은 상온 공정에서도 우수한 전기적, 광학적, 표면 특성을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 양극재료로써 높은 일함수를 가지고 있어 고효율의 유기 발광 소자를 구현하는데 유리한 재료라 판단된다. 본 연구에서는 TCO 박막의 면 저항과 표면 거칠기가 OLED 소자의 성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. R.F Magnetron Sputtering을 이용하여 투명 전도막을 성막 형성 하였으며, 기판온도와 증착과정에서 주입되는 산소, 수소의 유랑 변화가 박막의 구조적, 전기적 특성에 어떠한 영향 미치는 것인가를 자세히 규명하였다 ITO 와 IZO박막은 챔버 내 다양한 가스 분위기(Ar, $Ar+O_2$ and $Ar+H_2$) 에서 R.F Magnetron Sputtering 방법으로 증착했다. TCO박막의 구조적인 이해를 돕기 위해서 X-ray diffraction 과 FESEM으로 분석했다. 광학적 투과도와 박막의 두께는 Ultraviolet Spectrophotometer(Varian, cary-500)와 Surface profile mersurement system으로 각각 측정하였다. 면저항, charge carrier농도, 그리고 TCO박막의 이동성과 길은 전기적특성은 Four-point probe와 Hall Effect Measurement(HMS-3000)로 각각 측정한다. TCO 박막의 표면 거칠기에 따른 OLED소자의 성능분석 측면에서는 TCO 박막의 표면 거칠기 조절을 위해 photo lithography 공정을 사용하여 TCO 박막을 에칭 하였다. 미세사이즈 패턴 마스크가 사용되고 에칭의 깊이는 에칭시간에 따라 조절한다. TCO박막의 표면 형태는 FESEM과 AFM으로 관찰하고 그리고 나서 유기메탈과 음극 전극을 연속적으로 TCO 박막위에 증착한다. 투명전극으로 사용되는 IZO기판 상용화를 위해 IZO기판 위에 $\alpha$-NPB, Alq3, LiF, Al순서로 OLED소자를 제작하였다. 전류밀도와 전압 그리고 발광과 OLED소자의 전압과 같은 전기적 특성은 Spectrometer (minolta CS-1000A) 에 의하여 I-V-L분석을 했다.
