For longer than picosecond pulses, bulk damage inside defect-free dielectrics involves the heating and multiplication of spurious electrons by the incident laser beam and transfer of this energy to the lattice. The situation is quite different for femtosecond pulses which are shorter than the time scale for electron energy transfer to the lattice. Damage caused by these pulses is produced with smaller statistical uncertainty and is controllable on a microscopic scale. These properties can be exploited to produce laser devices such as arrays of damage dots for all optical memories with high data storage density or arrays of parallel grooves to form transmission gratings. In this work, we observed characteristic of the femtosecond laser machining in BK7 and fused silica.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is considered as a clean and efficient energy conversion det ice for mobile and stationary applications. Anions all the components of the PEMFC, the interface between the electrolyte ,and electrode catalyst plays an important role in determining tile cell performance since the electrochemical reactions take place at the interface in contact with tile reactant gases. Therefore, to increase the interface area and obtain a high-performance PEMFC, surface of the electrolyte membrane was roughened by Ar$^{+}$ beam bombardment. The results imply that by modifying surface of the electrolyte membrane, platinum loading can be reduced significantly without performance loss. To optimize the surface treatment condition, effects of ion dose density on characteristics of the membrane/electrode interface were examined by measuring the cell performance, impedance spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammograms. Surface of the modified membranes were characterized using scanning electron microscopy and FT-IR.R.

ECR (electron cyclotron resonance) 플라즈마원이 장착되어 있는 화학선에피탁시 (chemical beam epitaxy : CBE) 장치를 사용하여 InAs 양자점 구조형성에 미치는 수소플라즈마의 효과에 대하여 조사하였다. 자기조직화(self-organized)에 의해 GaAs 기판위에서 InAs 양자점의 형성을 RHEED(reflection high energy electron diffraction)로 관측한 결과 수소가스 및 수소플라즈마의 영향을 받지 않은 상태에서는 1.9 ML(monolayer)의 InAs 층성장(layer growth) 후에 형성되는데 비해 수소플아즈마를 조사한 상태에서는 약 2.6 ML의 InAs 층성장(layer growth) 후에 형성되는데 비해 수소플아즈마를 조사한 상태에서는 약 2.6 ML의 InAs층이 성장된 후 뒤늦게 이루어짐을 확인하였다. 기판의 온도 $370^{\circ}C$에서 동일한 조건으로 형성시킨 InAs 양자점의 밀도 및 크기는 수소플라즈마의 영향을 받지 않은 경우 $1.9{\times}10^{11}cm^{-2}$ 및 17.7 nm에서 수소플라즈마를 쪼인 경우 $1.3{\times}10^{11}cm^{-2}$ 및 19.4 nm로 양자점 형성 다소 완화되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 수소플아즈마에 의한 InAs 양자점의 PL(photoluminescence) 신호의 적색이동(red shift)과 반치폭 증가로부터 양자점 크기의 증가와 균일성이 다소 감소되는 모습을 알 수 있었다. 이와같은 수소플라즈마의 영향은 GaAs 기판과 InAs 사이의 부정합 변형환화 효과에의해 InAs의 충성장을 강화시키는 원자상 수소의 작용때문인 것으로 고려되었다.

Even though the fabrication methods of metal oxide based thin film capacitor have been well established such as RF sputtering, Sol-gel, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), ion beam assisted deposition (IBAD) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD), an applicable capacitor of printed circuit board (PCB) has not realized yet by these methods. Barium Strontium Titanate (BST) and other high-k ceramic oxides are important materials used in integrated passive devices, multi-chip modules (MCM), high-density interconnect, and chip-scale packaging. Thin film multi-layer technology is strongly demanded for having high capacitance (120 nF/$mm^2$). In this study, we suggest novel multi-layer thin film capacitor design and fabrication technology utilized by plasma assisted deposition and photolithography processes. Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST) was used for the dielectric material since it has high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss. 5-layered BST and Pt thin films with multi-layer sandwich structures were formed on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by RF-magnetron sputtering and DC-sputtering. Pt electrodes and BST layers were patterned to reveal internal electrodes by photolithography. SiO2 passivation layer was deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PE-CVD). The passivation layer plays an important role to prevent short connection between the electrodes. It was patterned to create holes for the connection between internal electrodes and external electrodes by reactive-ion etching (RIE). External contact pads were formed by Pt electrodes. The microstructure and dielectric characteristics of the capacitors were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and impedance analyzer, respectively. In conclusion, the 0402 sized thin film multi-layer capacitors have been demonstrated, which have capacitance of 10 nF. They are expected to be used for decoupling purpose and have been fabricated with high yield.

;The growth of films have considerable interest in the field of superlattice structured multi-layer epitaxy led to realization of new devices concepts. Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) with in situ observation by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) is a key technology for controlled layered growth on the atomic scale in oxide crystal thin films. Also, the combination of radical oxygen source and MBE will certainly accelerate the progress of applications of oxides. In this study, the growth process of single crystal films using by MBE method is discussed taking the oxide materials of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu family. Oxidation was provided by a flux density of activated oxygen (oxygen radicals) from an rf-excited discharge. Generation of oxygen radicals is obtained in a specially designed radical sources with different types (coil and electrode types). Molecular oxygen was introduced into a quartz tube through a variable leak valve with mass flowmeter. Corresponding to the oxygen flow rate, the pressure of the system ranged from $1{\;}{\times}{\;}10^{-6}{\;}Torr{\;}to{\;}5{\;}{\times}{\;}10^{-5}$ Torr. The base pressure was $1{\;}{\times}{\;}10^{-10}$ Torr. The growth of Bi-oxides was achieved by coevaporation of metal elements and oxygen. In this way a Bi-oxide multilayer structure was prepared on a basal-plane MgO or $SrTiO_3$ substrate. The grown films compiled using RHEED patterns during and after the growth. Futher, the exact observation of oxygen radicals with MBE is an important technology for a approach of growth conditions on stoichiometry and perfection on the atomic scale in oxide. The oxidization degree, which is determined and controlled by the number of activated oxygen when using radical sources of two types, are utilized by voltage locked loop (VLL) method. Coil type is suitable for oxygen radical source than electrode type. The relationship between the flux of oxygen radical and the rf power or oxygen partial pressure estimated. The flux of radicals increases as the rf power increases, and indicates to the frequency change having the the value of about $2{\times}10^{14}{\;}atoms{\;}{\cdots}{\;}cm^{-2}{\;}{\cdots}{\;}S^{-I}$ when the oxygen flow rate of 2.0 seem and rf power 150 W.150 W.

In order to fabricate adhesiveless 2-layer flexible copper clad laminate (FCCL) used for COF (chip on film) with high peel strength, polyimide (PI; Kapton-EN, $38\;{\mu}m$) surface was modified by reactive $O_2^+$ and $N_2O^+$ ion beam irradiation. 300 mm-long linear electron-Hall drift ion source was used for ion irradiation with ion current density (J) higher than $0.5\;mA/cm^2$ and energy lower than 200 eV. By vacuum web coating process, PI surface was modified by linear ion source and then 10-20 nm thick Ni-Cr and 200 nm thick Cu film were in-situ sputtered as a tie layer and seed layer, respectively. Above this sputtered layer, another $8-9{\mu}m$ thick Cu layer was grown by electroplating and subsequently acid and base resistance and thermal stability were tested for examining the change of peel strength. Peel strength for the FCCLs treated by both $O_2^+$ and $N_2O^+$ ion irradiation showed similar magnitudes and increased as the thickness of tie layer increased. FCCL with Cu (200 nm)/Ni-Cr (20 nm)/PI structure irradiated with $N_2O^+$ at $1{\times}10^{16}/cm^2$ ion fluence was proved to have a strong peel strength of 0.73 kgf/cm for as-received and 0.34 kgf/cm after thermal test.

Effects of HA and TiN coating on the electrochemical characteristics of Ti-6AI-4V alloys for bone plates were investigated using various test methods. Ti-6AI-4V alloys were fabricated by using a vacuum induction furnace and bone plates were made by laser cutting and polishing. HA was made of extracted tooth sintered and then tooth ash was used as HA coating target. The TiN and HA film coating on the surface were carried on using electron-beam physical vapor deposition (EB-PVD) method. The corrosion behaviors of the samples were examined through potentiodynamic method in 0.9% NaCI solutions at $36.5\pm$$1^{\circ}C$ and corrosion surface was observed using SEM and XPS. The surface roughness of TiN coated bone plates was lower than that of tooth ash coated plates. The structure of TiN coated layer showed the columnar structure and tooth ash coated layer showed equiaxed and anisotrophic structure. The corrosion potential of the TiN coated specimen is comparatively high. The active current density of TiN and tooth ash coated alloy showed the range of about $1.0xl0^{-5}$ $A\textrm{cm}^2$, whereas that of the non-coated alloy was$ 1.0xl0^{-4}$ $A\textrm{cm}^2$. The active current densities of HA and TiN coated bone plates were smaller than that of non-coated bone plates in 0.9% NaCl solution. The pitting potential of TiN and HA coated alloy is more drastically increased than that of the non-coated alloy. The pit number and pit size of TiN and HA coated alloy decreased in compared with those of non-coated alloy. For the coated samples, corrosion resistance increased in the order of TiN coated, tooth ash coated, and non-coated alloy.

비정질 $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$(X=0, 0.14, 0.34, 0.53)합금박막의 결정화거동을 X-ray diffractometry(XRD)와 투과전자현미경(transmission electron microscopy, TEM)을 이용하여 조사하였다. 비정질 박막은 열산화막(thermal oxide, $SiO_{2}$)이 입혀진 Si기판위에 MBE(Molecular Beam Epitaxy)를 이용하여 $300^{\circ}C$에서 증착하였으며 각 Ge조성에 해당하는 기편들을 $500^{\circ}C$ ~ $625^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 다음 XRD를 이용하여 결정화분율과 결정화후 박막의 우선순방위(texture)경향ㅇ르 조사하였다. 또한 TEM을 사용하여 열처리한 박막의 미세구조를 분석하였다. XRD분석결과 박막내의 Ge함량의 증가는 결정화에 대한 열처리시간을 크게 감소시키는 것으로 밝혀졌다. 또한 결정화후 강한(111) 우선방위를 나타내는 Si박막과는 달리 $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$합금은 (311)우선방위를 가지는 것을 알았으며 이는 비정질 Si박막과 $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$박막의 결정화기구에 현저한 차이가 있음을 암시한다. TEM관찰에서, 순수한 Si박막은 결정화후 결정립이 타원형이나 수지상(dendrite)형태를 취하고 있었으며 결정립내부에 미페쌍정이나 적층결함들의 많은 결정결함들이 존재하고, 결정립의 성장이 이들 결함을 따라 우선적으로 성장함을 알 수 있었다. 반면에 $Si_{0.47}Ge_{0.53}$의 경우에서는 결정립모양이 원형에 가까운 동축정(dquiaxed)형상을 하며 결정립내부의 결함밀도도 매우 낮았다. 특히 Si에서 보았던 결정립성장의 방향성은 관찰되지 않았다. 이상의 결과에서 비정질 $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$(합금박막의 결정화는 Ge이 포함되지 않은 순수한 Si의 twin assisted growth mode에서 Ge 함량의 증가에 따라 \ulcorner향성이 없는 random growth mode로 전개되어간다고 결론지을수 있다.

이상과 같은 실험에서 다음과 같은 사실을 요약할 수 있다. 1) ZnSSe/GaAs 에피층에는 많은 양의 적층결함과 전위 등의 결정결함이 존재하고 이들은 표면부 보다는 계면부에 더 많이 존재한다. 그러나 에피층은 기판과 pseudomorphic 성장을 이루고 있다. 2) ZnSSe/GaAs 계면에는 5nm 크기의 높이차가 나는 굴곡이 존재하며 ZnSe 버퍼 층에 관계없이 적층결함이 존재하고, 에피층 결정이 약간 기울어져서 므와레 줄무늬 패턴도 존재한다. 3) ZnSSe/GaAs 계면에는 성장 중에 S의 침투로 인한 <111>방향으로 피트가 형성되었음이 관찰되었고 이는 결함 생성 소스로 작용한다 4) 15nm 높이차가 나는 계면이 발견되었으나 기판과 정합을 이루고 있고 주변에는 적층결함도 존재하지 않는다. 그러나 미세한 므와레 줄무의형태가 존재하였다.
