Electromagnetic interference shielding and near-infrared cutoff filters for plasma display panel application were designed and fabricated by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Three types of the filters were prepared: the basic structure of type A consisted of [$TiO_2$ Ti Ag $TiO_2$]; type B, of [$TiO_2$ ITO Ag $TiO_2$]; type C, of [$TiO_2$ ITO Ag ITO $TiO_2$]. Ti and ITO layers deposited on Ag layers were employed as barriers to prevent the oxidation and the diffusion of Ag film into the adjacent oxide layers. Optical, electrical, chemical, and structural properties were investigated, and the result shows that the filters with the ITO barrier layers provided an enhancement in transmittance in the visible owing to a lower absorption of ITO layers than Ti layers. Type C filter showed better optical and electrical performances and smoother surface roughness than Type B and C filters: the average sheet resistance was as low as 1.51 $\Omega\Box$ (where $\square$ stands for a square film), the peak transmittance in the visible was as high as 78.2 %, and the average surface roughness was 1.48 nm.

The interaction of 1,3,5-trithian molecule with Ag(111) surface is studied employing Extended Huckel method. The Ag(111) surface is modeled by the three layer metal clusters composed of 43 Ag atoms. We assume that the 1,3,5-trithian is lying flat on Ag(111) surface in the chair conformation. The geometry of 1,3,5-trithian itself is assumed to be the same as in the gas phase, which is obtained through the AM1 SCF-MO calculation with full geometry optimization. The calculation for 3-fold site adsorption leads to the weakening of C-S bond, which is compatible with the observed 5 cm$^{-1}$ decrease of the C-S stretching frequency upon surface adsorption, while the on-top site adsorption leads to strengthening of C-S bond. The major component of the C-S bond of trithian is S $3p_{pi}\;(S\;3p_x+S\;3p_y)$ and therefore only the 3-fold site adsorption causes the weakening of this bond. In addition, it is found that the trithian molecule binds to the 3-fold site more strongly.

The motivation of this work is to use SAM(Self-Assembled Monolayer) for developing a rapid and flexible non-photolithographic nano-structure fabrication technique which can be utilized in micro-machining of metals as well as silicon-based materials. The fabrication technique implemented in this work consists of a two-step process, namely, mechanical scribing followed by chemical etching. From the experimental results, it was found that thiol on copper surface could be removed even under a few nN normal load. The nano-tribological characteristics of thiol-SAM on various metals were largely dependent on the native oxide layer of metals. Based on these findings, nano-patterns with sub-micrometer width and depth on metal surfaces such as Cu, Au and Ag could be obtained using a diamond-coated tip.

Top emission organic light-emitting diode is commonly used because of high efficiency and good color purity than bottom - emission organic light-emitting device. Unlike BEOLED, TEOLED contain semi-transparent metal cathode. Because of semi-transparent cathode, micro cavity effect occurs in TEOLED. We optimized this effect by changing the thickness of hole injection layer. Device consists of is indium-tin-oxide / N,N'-Di-[(1-naphthyl)-N,N'-diphenyl]-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (x nm) / tris-(8-hydroxyquinoline) aluminum (50nm) / LiF(0.5nm) / Mg:Ag (1:9), and we changed NPB thickness which is used as HTL in our device in order to study how micro cavity effects are changed by optical path. As the results, NPB thickness at 35nm showed the current efficiency of 8.55Cd/A.

To investigate the effect of metal back-reflective layers (MBLs) on the performance of GaAs solar cells, we fabricated GaAs solar cells on Al and Ag metal layers using the transfer printing technique. We also investigated the effect of MBL texturing on the performance of transfer printed GaAs solar cells. Transfer printed solar cells with MBLs exhibited improved photovoltaic performance compared to solar cells without MBLs due to light trapping. We demonstrated GaAs solar cells with MBLs on a flexible substrate and performed systematic bending tests. All the measured characteristics of solar cells showed little change in performance.

수소화된 비정질규소 박막의 결정화 방법은 물질의 질과 후속으로 제작되는 성능을 결정한다. 본 논문은 다양한 기판위에 성장된 비정질규소 박막의 결정화 특성조사와 고용체 형성 금속 박막의 유.무에 따른 결정화 효과를 분석하였다. 다양한 기판조사로부터 Mo 기판이 비정질규소 박막을 성장하기위해 선택되었다. 고용체 형성 금속을 사용하지않은 경우 $1100^{\circ}C$ 열처리후에 결정립의 크기가 $0.8{\mu}m$에 달하는 다결정을 얻었다. 결정화 온도를 줄이기 위해 고용체 형성 금속인 Au, Al, Ag등을 사용하였다. 금속 Au를 사용하여 $700^{\circ}C$ 열처리 후에 결정입경 크기가 $10{\mu}m$ 이상이며 (111) 면 우선배향 특성을 갖는 다결정규소 박막이 달성되었다. 광전소자 응용을 위하여 규소박막과 고용체를 형성하는 금속종류, 금속두께 등의 결정화 영향을 조사하였다.

Graphene oxide를 ZnCl₂:NaCl 전해질과 함께 교반한 후 순환 전압전류법에 의해 전기화학적으로 제막하여 유기태양전지용 전자수송층 제막과정을 단순화하고 이를 갖는 유기태양전지를 제작하였다. 소자의 구조는 FTO/ZnO:graphene 전자수송층/P3HT:PCBM 광활성층/PEDOT:PSS 정공수송층/Ag이다. ETL의 형태 및 화학적 특성은 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscopy, SEM), X선 광전자 분광법(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS), 라만 분광법으로 확인하였다. XPS 측정결과 ZnO 금속산화물 및 탄소결합이 동시에 확인되었고, 라만 분광법에서 ZnO와 graphene 피크를 확인하였다. 제작한 태양전지의 전기적 특성을 솔라시뮬레이터로 측정하였고 0.05 V/s의 속도로 2회 제막한 ETL 소자에서 1.94%의 가장 높은 광전변환효율을 나타내었다.

스크린 프린팅된 Ag 박막과 에폭시 수지로 코팅된 폴리이미드 사이의 계면접착력을 $180^{\circ}$ 필 테스트를 통해 정량적으로 구하였다. 스크린 프린팅된 Ag 박막과 에폭시 수지 코팅된 폴리이미드 사이 필 강도는 $164.0{\pm}24.4J/m^2$이었다. 오븐에서 $120^{\circ}C$ 조건에서 24시간 동안 열처리 한 Ag/폴리이미드의 필 강도는 $220.8{\pm}19.2J/m^2$로 증가하였고, $85^{\circ}C/85%$ 상대습도 조건에서 120시간 동안 유지한 Ag/폴리이미드의 필 강도는 $84.1{\pm}50.8J/m^2$로 감소하였다. 전계방출형 주사전자현미경과 XPS를 통해 박리된 시편 표면을 분석한 결과, 열처리 및 고온/다습조건처리 시 스크린 프린팅 Ag 박막과 에폭시 수지 코팅층 사이의 계면접착력은 에폭시 수지와 수분 사이의 가수분해 결합 반응으로 인해 계면접착력 증가 및 감소하는 경향과 밀접한 연관성이 있는 것으로 판단된다.

We report on the fabrication and photoelectrochemical (PEC) properties of a ZnO nanorod array structure as an efficient photoelectrode for hydrogen production from sunlight-driven water splitting. Vertically aligned ZnO nanorods were grown on an indium-tin-oxide-coated glass substrate via seed-mediated hydrothermal synthesis method with the use of a ZnO nanoparticle seed layer, which was formed by thermally oxidizing a sputtered Zn metal thin film. The structural and morphological properties of the synthesized ZnO nanorods were examined using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, as well as Raman scattering. The PEC properties of the fabricated ZnO nanorod photoelectrode were evaluated by photocurrent conversion efficiency measurements under white light illumination. From the observed PEC current density versus voltage (J-V) behavior, the vertically aligned ZnO nanorod photoelectrode was found to exhibit a negligible dark current and high photocurrent density, e.g., $0.65mA/cm^2$ at 0.8 V vs Ag/AgCl in a 1 mM $Na_2SO_4$ electrolyte. In particular, a significant PEC performance was observed even at an applied bias of 0 V vs Ag/AgCl, which made the device self-powered.

Pd-ceramic composite membranes and catalytic membrane reactors(CMR) have been studied for hydrogen and its isotopes (deuterium and tritium) purification and recovery in the fusion reactor fuel cycle. Particularly a closed-loop process has been studied for recovering tritium from tritiated water by means of a CMR in which the water gas shift reaction takes place. The development of the techniques for coating micro-porous ceramic tubes with Pd and Pd/Ag thin layers is described : P composite membranes have been produced by electroless deposition (Pd/Ag film of 10-20 $\mu$m) and rolling of thin metal sheets (Pd and Pd/Ag membranes of 50-70 $\mu$m). Experimental results of the electroless membranes have shown a not complete hydrogen selectivity because of the presence of some defects(micro-holes) in the metallic thin layer. Conversely the rolled thin Pd and Pd/ag membranes have separated hydrogen from the other gases with a complete selectivity giving rise to a slightly larger (about a factor 1.7) mass transfer resistance with respect to the electroless membranes. Experimental tests have confirmed the good performances of the rolled membranes in terms of chemical stability over several weeks of operation. Therefore these rolled membranes and CMR are adequate for applications in the fusion reactor fuel cycle as well as in the industrial processes where high pure hydrogen is required (i.e. hydrocarbon reforming for fuel cell)
