반도체 소자공정에서 균일한 두께의 금속박막을 증착하는 것은 매우 중요하다. 기존의 기판고정식 sputtering 장비로 증착한 indium tin oxide(ITO)박막의 두께 균일도가 $\pm4%\sim\pm5%$ 정도로 중앙부분이 더 두껍다. 방전전극 구조물을 설계하고 제작하여 sputtering되는 물질의 방향을 조절하였다. 개량된 sputtering gun을 사용하여 기판고정식 sputtering 장비에서 4" wafer 내에서 $\pm0.8\sim1.3%$ 정도로 두께 균일도를 증가시켰다. wafer to wafer에서는 $\pm$5.3%에서 $\pm$1.5%로 두께 균일도가 향상되었다. Al박막의 경우 $\pm$1.0% 이내의 두께 균일도를 얻을 수 있었다.

Typical electrodes (metal or indium tin oxide (ITO)), which were used in conventional organic light emitting devices (OLEDs) structure, have transparency and conductivity, but, it is not suitable as the electrode of the flexible OLEDs (f-OLEDs) due to its brittle property. Although Graphene is the most well-known alternative material for conventional electrode because of present electrode properties as well as flexibility, its carrier injection barrier is comparatively high to use as electrode. In this work, we performed plasma treatment on the graphene surface and alkali metal doping in the organic materials to study for its possibility as anode and cathode, respectively. By using Ultraviolet Photoemission Spectroscopy (UPS), we investigated the interfaces of modified graphene. The plasma treatment is generated by various gas types such as O2 and Ar, to increase the work function of the graphene film. Also, for co-deposition of organic film to do alkali metal doping, we used three different organic materials which are BMPYPB (1,3-Bis(3,5-di-pyrid-3-yl-phenyl)benzene), TMPYPB (1,3,5-Tri[(3-pyridyl)-phen-3-yl]benzene), and 3TPYMB (Tris(2,4,6-trimethyl-3-(pyridin-3-yl)phenyl)borane)). They are well known for ETL materials in OLEDs. From these results, we found that graphene work function can be tuned to overcome the weakness of graphene induced carrier injection barrier, when the interface was treated with plasma (alkali metal) through the value of hole (electron) injection barrier is reduced about 1 eV.

Over the past several years, colloidal core/shell type quantum dots lighting-emitting diodes (QDLEDs) have been extensively studied and developed for the future of optoelectronic applications. In the work, we fabricate an inverted CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based light-emitting diodes (QDLED). In order to reduce work function of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode for inverted structure, a very thin (<10 nm) polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) is used as surface modifier[1] instead of conventional metal oxide electron injection layer. The PEIE layer substantially reduces the work function of ITO electrodes which is estimated to be 3.08 eV by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). From transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study, CdSe/ZnS QDs are uniformly distributed and formed by a monolayer on PEIE layer. In this inverted QDLEDs, blend of poly (9,9-di-n-octyl-fluorene-alt-benzothiadiazolo) and poly(N,N'-bis(4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine] are used as hole transporting layer (HTL) to improve hole transporting property. At the operating voltage of 8 V, the QDLED device emitted spectrally orange color lights with high luminance up to 2450 cd/m2, and showed current efficacy of 0.6 cd/A, respectively.

Recently, colloidal core/shell type quantum dots lighting-emitting diodes (QDLEDs) have been extensively studied and developed for the future of optoelectronic applications. In the work, we fabricate an inverted CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) based light-emitting diodes (QDLED)[1]. In order to reduce work function of indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode for inverted structure, a very thin (<10 nm) polyethylenimine ethoxylated (PEIE) is used as surface modifier[2] instead of conventional metal oxide electron injection layer. The PEIE layer substantially reduces the work function of ITO electrodes which is estimated to be 3.08 eV by ultraviolet photoemission spectroscopy (UPS). From transmission electron microscopy (TEM) study, CdSe/ZnS QDs are uniformly distributed and formed by a monolayer on PEIE layer. In this inverted QD LED, two kinds of hybrid organic materials, [poly (9,9-di-n-octyl-fluorene-alt-benzothiadiazolo)(F8BT) + poly(N,N'-bis (4-butylphenyl)-N,N'-bis(phenyl)benzidine (poly-TPD)] and [4,4'-N,N'-dicarbazole-biphenyl (CBP) + poly-TPD], were adopted as hole transport layer having high highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level for improving hole transport ability. At a low-operating voltage of 8 V, the device emits orange and red spectral radiation with high brightness up to 2450 and 1420 cd/m2, and luminance efficacy of 1.4 cd/A and 0.89 cd/A, respectively, at 7 V applied bias. Also, the carrier transport mechanisms for the QD LEDs are described by using several models to fit the experimental I-V data.

포화지방산과 인지질(DMPC)혼합 LB막에 대한 전기화학적 특성을 조사하였다. 포화지방산과 DMPC 혼합 단분자 LB막은 ITO glass에 Langmuir-Blodgett법을 사용하여 제막하였다. 전기화학적 특성은 $NaClO_4$ 용액에서 3 전극 시스템 (Ag/AgCl 기준전극, 백금선 카운터 전극 및 LB 필름이 코팅된 ITO 작업 전극)으로 순환전압전류법을 사용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과 포화지방산과 인지질(DMPC)의 LB막은 순환전압전류도표로부터 산화전류로 인한 비가역공정으로 나타났다. 포화지방산과 인지질(DMPC)혼합(몰비 1:1) LB막(C14, C16, C18, C20)에서 확산계수(D)는 0.05 N $NaClO_4$에서 각각 $1.2{\times}10^{-3}$, $2.1{\times}10^{-3}$, $1.4{\times}10^{-4}$ 및 $1.1{\times}10^{-3}cm^2/s$로 산출되었다.

The Indium Zinc Tin Oxide (IZTO) thin films for flexible display electrode were deposited on poly carbonate (PC) and polyethersulfone(PES) and glass substrates at room temperature by facing targets sputtering (FTS). Two different kinds of targets were installed on FTS system. One is ITO ($In_2O_3$ 90 wt.%, $SnO_2$ 10 wt.%), the other is IZO ($In_2O_3$ 90 wt.%, ZnO 10 wt.%). As-deposited IZTO thin films were investigated by a UV/VIS spectrometer, an X-ray diffractometer (XRD), an atomic force microscope (AFM) and a Hall Effect measurement system. As a result, we could prepare the IZTO thin films with the resistivity of under $10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$ and IZTO thin films deposited on glass substrate showed an average transmittance over 80% in visible range (400~800 nm) in all IZTO thin films except in IZTO thin film deposited at $O_2$ gas flow rate of 0.1[sccm].

동시스퍼터법을 이용하여 Ta이 도핑된 $TiO_2$ 박막을 석영 및 ITO 기판위에 제작하였다. Ta의 도핑량은 동시스퍼터법에 의하여 조절되는 Ta 금속선 길이에 의하여 제어 되었다. Ta이 도핑된 $TiO_2$ 박막은 rutile상에서 anatase상으로 구조변화를 유발 시키며 고용체를 형성했다. Ta의 도핑량이 증가함에 따라 rutile상 보다는 anatase상이 많은 것으로 나타났다. XPS 분석에 따르면 도핑된 Ta은 금속이 아닌 $Ta_2O_5$의 산화물을 형성하는 것으로 나타났다. Ta이 도핑된 $TiO_2$ 전극에서는 자외선(UV) 영역을 포함하여 가시광(VIS) 영역의 빛의 조사에 광전류응답 특성을 발현하였다. 가시광선 영역에서 발현된 광전류 응답 특성은 Ta 도핑에 의하여 $TiO_2$ 밴드갭내에 불순물 준위의 형성에 기인한 것으로 사료된다.

차세대 대형 FPD(Flat Panel Display)로 각광받는 PDP(Plasma Display Panel)는 cost, 소비전력, 효율 등의 문제점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 저가격화를 실현하기 위하여 종래 사용되었던 투명전극인 ITO(Indium-Tin Oxide)전극 대신 금속(Ag) 전극만을 사용하여 공정을 간소화한 Fence 전극구조를 제안하였다. 그리고 소비전력의 감소와 효율의 향상을 위해 격벽쪽의 전극을 제거하여 방전경로상의 저항을 증가시켜 방전전류를 감소시키는 동시에 하전입자의 격벽손실을 줄이는 4-inch Test Panel을 제작하여 전기광학적 특성 실험을 하였다. 제안한 구조의 돌기길이를 변화시켜 방전개시전압, 휘도, 소비전력, 효율 등을 측정, 비교하여 power가 14%감소하여 효율을 11% 향상 시킬 수 있었다.

We investigated change of the electronic structure, chemical states and elements ratio in graphene film by using photoelectron spectroscopy (PES). The graphene electrode has attracted considerable interest due to its possible applications in flexible organic light emitting diodes (F-OLEDs). However, to use the graphene for OLEDs, sufficient increase of work function is required, that is related with hole injection barrier. Plasma treatment is one of the most widely used method in OLEDs to increase the work function of the anode such as indium tin oxide (ITO). In this work, we used the plasma treatment, which is generated by various gas types such as O2, and Ar to increase the work function of the graphene film. From these results, we discuss the relation among the change of work function, plasma power, plasma treatment time and gas types.

Amorphous nickelphthalocyanine(NiPc) thin films were prepared by vacuum evaporation and their electrochromic behavior and voltammograms were examined in the five kinds of aqueous electrolytes. Amorphous NiPc films were prepared on indium-tin-oxide(ITO) glass substrates cooled to-$120^{\circ}C$ by using liquid nitrogen under a vacuum of $2.4 \times 10^{-4}$. The voltammetric and electrochromic measurements were made using a potential galvanostat. In order to confirm the color change, optical vis-transmission spectra of the NiPc films were measured by a spectrophotometer with various electrode potential applied. The NiPc amorphous thin films exhibited most clearly electrochromism in $KNO_3$ aqueous electrolyte. The specimen films underwent 3 color transitions (from blue to yellow-green, then to red violet, then to dark blue), corresponding to the three peaks on the voltammograms in $KNO_3$ aqueous electrolyte. Blue is color of the as-prepared film. When the potential was swept, charge compensation was attained upon oxidation by injection of anions from the electrolyte and upon reduction by expulsion of anions.
