Bottom gate and top gate field-effect transistor based carbon nanotube(CNT) were fabricated by CMOS process. Carbon nanotube directly grown by thermal chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using Ethylene ($C_2H_4$) gas at $700^{\circ}C$. The growth properties of CNTs on the device were analyzed by SEM and AFM. The electrical transport characteristics of CNT FET were investigated by I-V measurement. Transport through the nanotubes is dominated by holes at room temperature. By varying the gate voltage, bottom gate and top gate field-effect transistor successfully modulated the conductance of FET device.

Organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) are of interest for use in widely area electronic applications. We fabricated the organic field-effect transistor based a copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) as an active layer on the silicon substrate. The CuPc FET device was made a topcontact type and the substrate temperature was room temperature and $150^{\circ}C$. The CuPc thickness was 40 nm, and the channel length was $50{\mu}m$, channel width was 3 mm. We observed the typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and capacitance-voltage (C-V) in CuPc FET and we calculated the effective mobility with each device. Also, we observed the AFM images with different substrate temperature.

Scanning probe microscopes (SPMs) such as the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) and the atomic force microscope (AFM) were used for surface modification tools at the nanometer scale. Material surfaces, i. e., titanium, hydrogen-terminated silicon and trimethylsilyl organosilane monolayer on silicon, were locally oxidized with the best lateral spatial resolution of 20nm. The principle behind this proximal probe oxidation method is scanning probe anodization, that is, the SPM tip-sample junction connected through a water column acting as a minute electrochemical cell. An SPM-nanolithogrphy process was demonstrated using the organosilane monolayer as a resist. Area-selective chemical modifications, i. e., etching, electroless plating with gold, monolayer deposition and immobilization of latex nanoparticles; were achieved in nano-scale resolution. The area-selectivity was based on the differences in chemical properties between the SPM-modified and unmodified regions.

In this work, the ITO thin films were prepared by FTS (Facing Targets Sputtering) system under different sputtering conditions which were varying $O_2$ gas flow and input current. As a function of sputtering conditions, electrical and optical properties of prepared ITO thin films were measured. The electrical characteristics, surface roughness and transmittance of the ITO thin films were evaluated by Hall Effect Measurement, AFM, and UV-VIS spectrometer respectively. In addition, I-V properties of OLED cells were measured by 4156A(HP).

Surface modifications using a radio frequency Ar-plasma treatment were performed on a polypropylene (PP) blend used for automotive bumper fascia. The surface characterization and morphology were examined. With increasing aging time, there was an increase in wettability, oxygen containing polar functional groups (i.e., C-O, C=O and O-C=O) due to oxidation, the amount of tale, and bearing depth and roughness on the PP surface, while there was a decrease in the number of hydrocarbon groups (i.e., C-C and C-H). AFM indicated that the Ar-plasma-treatment on a PP blend surface transforms the wholly annular surface into a locally dimpled surface, leading to an improvement in wettability. SEM showed that the PP layer observed in the non-plasma-treated sample was removed after the Ar-plasma treatment and the rubber particles were exposed to the surface. The observed surface characterization and morphologies are responsible for the improved wettability and interfacial adhesion between the PP blend substrate and bumper coating layers.

Stainless Steel의 유연한 기판을 사용하여 ZnO:Al/Ag의 후면전극에서 Ag 증착 실험조건 변화를 통해서 light trapping을 개선한 n-i-p 구조의 플렉서블 미세결정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지를 제작하였다. 실험 방법으로 마그네트론 스퍼터를 사용하여 Stainless Steel 기판 위에 ZnO:Al/Ag를 증착하여 후면전극으로 사용되는 back reflector를 제작하였으며 그 위에 미세결정질 실리콘 박막을 증착하였다. Back reflector에서 Ag 박막의 증착 온도가 증가할수록 표면결정 성장으로 roughness가 증가하여 반사도를 증가하였다. 또한, Ag 박막 증착 두께와 압력 변화에 따른 광학적 특성변화를 Atomic Force Microscope(AFM), Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM),UV-visible-nIR spectrometry로 조사하여 최적의 조건을 찾았으며 개선된 back reflector의 특성이 n-i-p 구조의 플렉서블 미세결정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지에 적용하여 light trapping의 증가가 태양전지에서 광학적인 특성 변화 및 효율 향상에 영향을 주는지 Photo IV와 EQE(External Quantum Efficiency)를 통하여 조사하였다.

The barrier and optical properties of AlO$_{x}$ thin films on polycarbonate deposited by Reactive Ion Beam Sputtering (RIBS) were investigated at different oxygen partial pressure. We measured the deposition rate of AlO$_{x}$ thin films. As the oxygen partial pres-sure increased, the deposition rate increased then decreased. The changes of deposition rate are associated with the properties of deposited films. The properties of deposited AlO$_{x}$ thin films were studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scan-ning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Optimum deposition parameters were found for fabricat-ing aluminum oxide thin films with high optical transparency for visible light and low Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR). The optical transmittance of AlO$_{x}$ thin film deposited on polycarbonate (PC) showed the same value of bare PC.bare PC.

마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 n-i-p 구조의 플렉서블 실리콘 박막태양전지용 ZnO/Ag 후면전극을 stainless steel 기판위에 제조하고 증착온도와 Ag 박막의 두께 변화에 따른 광학적 특성변화를 조사하였다. ZnO/Ag 구조의 후면전극은 RF와 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링으로 Ag 금속 및 ZnO:Al($Al_2O_3$ 2.5%) 세라믹 타겟을 이용하여 각각 제조하였으며 증착온도는 상온 ${\sim}500^{\circ}C$로, Ag 박막두께는 100 ~ 500 nm로 변화시켰다. 증착조건 변화에 따라 제조된 후면전극의 표면거칠기 및 형상변화를 Atomic Force Mircroscope (AFM)와 Scanning electron miroscopy (SEM)으로 분석하였으며 이에 따른 반사도 변화를 UV-visible-nIR spectrometry 측정을 통하여 조사하였다. 증착온도가 증가함에 따라 Ag 박막의 표면 거칠기는 점차로 증가하였으며 증착된 후면전극의 반사도도 함께 증가함을 알 수 있었다. Ag 박막의 두께 변화에 따른 반사도 변화와 n-i-p 구조의 플렉서블 실리콘 박막태양전지에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다.

The structural, magnetic, and transport properties of a mono-layered manganite $La_{0.7}Sr_{1.3}MnO_{4+{\delta}}$ were investigated using variable temperature neutron powder diffraction as well as magnetization and transport measurements. The compound adopts the tetragonal I4/mmm symmetry and exhibits no magnetic reflection in the temperature region of 10 K ≤ T ≤ 300 K. A weak ferromagnetic (FM) transition occurs about 130 K, which almost coincides with the onset of a metal-insulator (M-I) transition. Extra oxygen that occupies the interstitial site between the [(La,Sr)O] layers makes the spacing between the [MnO₂] layers shorten, which enhances the inter-layer coupling and eventually leads to the M-I transition. We also found negative magneto resistance (MR) below the M-I transition temperature, which can be understood on the basis of the percolative transport via FM metallic domains in the antiferromagnetic (AFM) insulating matrix.
