  • $BiFeO_3$ (BFO) thin films were prepared on $Pt/TiO_2/Si$ substrate by r.f. magnetron sputtering. The effects of deposition pressure on electrical properties were investigated using measurement of dielectric properties, leakage current and polarization. When BFO targets were prepared, Fe atoms were substituted with Mn 0.05% to increase electrical resistivity of films. (Fe+Mn)/Bi ratio of BFO thin films increases with increasing partial pressure of $O_2$ gas. The deposited films showed the only BFO phase at 10 mTorr, the coexistence of BFO and $Bi_2O_3$ phase at 30-50 mTorr, and the only $Bi_2O_3$ phase at 70 mTorr. The crystallinity of BFO films was reduced due to the higher Bi contents and the decrease of surface mobility of atoms at high temperature. The porosity and surface roughness of films increased with the increase of the deposition pressure. The films deposited at high pressure showed low dielectric constant and high leakage current. The dielectric constant of films deposited at various deposition pressures was 84${\sim}$153 at 1 kHz. The leakage current density of the films deposited at 10${\sim}$70 mTorr was about $7{\times}10.6{\sim}1.5{\times}10.2A/cm^2$ at 100 kV/cm. The leakage current was found to be closely related to the morphology and composition of the BFO films. BFO films showed poor P-E hysteresis loops due to high leakage current.

  • MOD(Metal-Organic-Decomposition)법에 의해 $Y_2$O$_3$버퍼층에 Pt/TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si 기판 위에 제조한 후, 그 표면 위에 졸-겔 방법으로 YMnO$_3$박막을 형성하였다. 기판의 종류와 수화조건 변화가 YMnO$_3$박막의 결정화 거동에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였으며, 또한 $Y_2$O$_3$버퍼층 유.무에 따른 Mn의 산화상태를 확인하고 이에 따른 유전특성 변화를 연구하였다. $Y_2$O$_3$버퍼층을 삽입하지 않고 직접 기판 위에 형성한 YMnO$_3$박막의 결정상은 기판의 종류 및 Rw 변화에 관계없이 orthorhombic 구조임이 확인되었다. 반면, $Y_2$O$_3$버퍼층 위에 형성된 YMnO$_3$박막의 경우에는 Rw($H_2O$/alkoxide mole ratio)가 0~6 범위 내에서 낮아질술고 hexagonal 결정상 성장에 유리하였으며, 또한 Pt(111)/TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si 기판이 Ptd(200)/TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si에 비하여 결정상 형성에 용이하였다. $Y_2$O$_3$버퍼층은 YMnO$_3$결정상 내에서 $Mn^{4+}$ 이온형성을 억제함으로써 누설전류밀도가 크게 감소되는 효과를 주었으며, 동시에 강유전 특성을 지닌 hexagonal 결정상 형성에 유리하게 작용하였다. 결론적으로, $Y_2$O$_3$는 Pt가 코팅된 Si 기판 위에 YMnO$_3$박막 제조시 그 강유전 특성을 향상시켜주는 우수한 버퍼층 재료임을 확인하였다.

  • Generally, the high energy lithium ion batteries depend intimately on the high capacity of electrode materials. For anode materials, the capacity of commercial graphite is unlike to increase much further due to its lower theoretical capacity of 372 mAhg-1. To improve upon graphite-based negative electrode materials for Li-ion rechargeable batteries, alternative anode materials with higher capacity are needed. Therefore, some metal anodes with high theoretic capacity, such as Si, Sn, Ge, Al, and Sb have been studied extensively. This work focuses on ternary Si-M1-M2 composite system, where M1 is Ge that alloys with Li, which has good cyclability and high specific capacity and M2 is Mo that does not alloy with Li. The Si shows the highest gravimetric capacity (up to 4000mAhg-1 for Li21Si5). Although Si is the most promising of the next generation anodes, it undergoes a large volume change during lithium insertion and extraction. It results in pulverization of the Si and loss of electrical contact between the Si and the current collector during the lithiation and delithiation. Thus, its capacity fades rapidly during cycling. Si thin film is more resistant to fracture than bulk Si because the film is firmly attached to the substrate. Thus, Si film could achieve good cycleability as well as high capacity. To improve the cycle performance of Si, Suzuki et al. prepared two components active (Si)-active(Sn, like Ge) elements film by vacuum deposition, where Sn particles dispersed homogeneously in the Si matrix. This film showed excellent rate capability than pure Si thin film. In this work, second element, Ge shows also high capacity (about 2500mAhg-1 for Li21Ge5) and has good cyclability although it undergoes a large volume change likewise Si. But only Ge does not use the anode due to its costs. Therefore, the electrode should be consisted of moderately Ge contents. Third element, Mo is an element that does not alloys with Li such as Co, Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni, V, Zr. In our previous research work, we have fabricated Si-Mo (active-inactive elements) composite negative electrodes by using RF/DC magnetron sputtering method. The electrodes showed excellent cycle characteristics. The Mo-silicide (inert matrix) dispersed homogeneously in the Si matrix and prevents the active material from aggregating. However, the thicker film than $3\;{\mu}m$ with high Mo contents showed poor cycling performance, which was attributed to the internal stress related to thickness. In order to deal with the large volume expansion of Si anode, great efforts were paid on material design. One of the effective ways is to find suitably three-elements (Si-Ge-Mo) contents. In this study, the Si based composites of 45~65 Si at.% and 23~43 Ge at.%, and 12~32 Mo at.% are evaluated the electrochemical characteristics and cycle performances as an anode. Results from six different compositions of Si-Ge-Mo are presented compared to only the Si and Ge negative electrodes.

  • Mn-substituted $BiFeO_3$(BFO) thin films were prepared by r.f. magnetron sputtering under an Ar/$O_2$ mixture of various deposition pressures at room temperature. The effects of the deposition pressure and annealing temperature on the crystallization and electrical properties of BFO films were investigated. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed that BFO films were crystallized for films annealed above $500^{\circ}C$. BFO films annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ for 5 min in $N_2$ atmosphere exhibited the crystallized perovskite phase. The (Fe+Mn)/Bi ratio decreased with an increase in the deposition pressure due to the difference of sputtering yield. The grain size and surface roughness of films increased with an increase in the deposition pressure. The dielectric constant of BFO films prepared at various conditions shows $127{\sim}187$ at 1 kHz. The leakage current density of BFO films annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ was approximately two orders of magnitude lower than that of $550^{\circ}C$. The leakage current density of the BFO films deposited at $10{\sim}30\;m$ Torr was about $5{\times}10^{-6}{\sim}3{\times}10^{-2}A/cm^2$ at 100 kV/cm. Due to the high leakage current, saturated P-E curves were not obtained in BFO films. BFO film annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ exhibited remnant polarization(2Pr) of $26.4{\mu}C/cm^2$ at 470 kV/cm.

  • E-beam 장비로 ZnS:Mn/Zns:Tb 2층 구조의 TFEL 소자를 제작하여 전기, 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. ITO 투명전극과 ATO 절연체가 증착된 유리기판(corning 7059 glass) 위에 E-beam 장비를 이용하여 ZnS:Mn, ZnS:Tb 형광체를 각각 3000 A로 증착하여 총 두께 6000 Å 갖도록 제작하였다. ZnS:Mn/ZnS:Tb TFEL 소자의 스펙트럼은 Mn/sup 2+/ 이온과 Tb/sup 3+/ 이온의 고유한 발광 스펙트럼을 모두 포함하여 540㎚에서 640㎚에 이르는 매우 넓은 범위의 발광 스펙트럼을 나타내었다. 휘도는 인가전압의 크기가 112V에서부터 급격히 증가하여 155 V에서 포화 휘도 1025 Cd/㎡를 나타내었고 최대 전압 185 V에서의 휘도는 2080 Cd/㎡이었다. Capacitance-voltage(C-V) 및 transferred charge-phosphor voltage(Q/sub t/-V/sub p/) 특성으로부터 형광층 capacitance (C/sub p/)와 절연층 capacitance (C/sub i/)가 각각 13.5 nF/㎠, 60 nF/㎠됨을 알 수 있었고, 인가전압의 최대치를 155 V에서 185 V로 증가시킬수록 TFEL 소자의 문턱전압(V/sub thl/)이 126 V에서 93 V로 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 이것은 인가전압을 증가시킬수록 polarization charge가 증가되고 polarization charge에 의해 형성된 형광체 내부전압이 증가되었기에 문턱전압이 감소한 것이다. 또한 처음으로 문턱전압에 관한 수식을 제안하였으며 문턱전압의 이론치와 실험치가 일치하는 것을 확인하였다.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the corrosion behaviors of dental implant alloy after microsized surface modification in electrolytes containing Mn ion. Materials and Methods: $Mn-TiO_2$ coatings were prepared on the Ti-6Al-4V alloy for dental implants using a plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) method carried out in electrolytes containing different concentrations of Mn, namely, 0%, 5%, and 20%. Potentiodynamic method was employed to examine the corrosion behaviors, and the alternatingcurrent (AC) impedance behaviors were examined in 0.9% NaCl solution at $36.5^{\circ}C{\pm}1.0^{\circ}C$ using a potentiostat and an electrochemical impedance spectroscope. The potentiodynamic test was performed with a scanning rate of $1.667mV\;s^{-1}$ from -1,500 to 2,000 mV. A frequency range of $10^{-1}$ to $10^5Hz$ was used for the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The amplitude of the AC signal was 10 mV, and 5 points per decade were used. The morphology and structure of the samples were examined using field-emission scanning electron microscopy and thin-film X-ray diffraction. The elemental analysis was performed using energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Result: The PEO-treated surface exhibited an irregular pore shape, and the pore size and number of the pores increased with an increase in the Mn concentration. For the PEO-treated surface, a higher corrosion current density ($I_{corr}$) and a lower corrosion potential ($E_{corr}$) was obtained as compared to that of the bulk surface. However, the current density in the passive regions ($I_{pass}$) was found to be more stable for the PEO-treated surface than that of the bulk surface. As the Mn concentration increased, the capacitance values of the outer porous layer and the barrier layer decreased, and the polarization resistance of the barrier layers increased. In the case of the Mn/Ca-P coatings, the corroded surface was found to be covered with corrosion products. Conclusion: It is confirmed that corrosion resistance and polarization resistance of PEO-treated alloy increased as Mn content increased, and PEO-treated surface showed lower current density in the passive region.

  • Basic design concept of the future steel structure requires environmental compatibility and maintenance free capability to minimize economic burdens. Recent trends in alloy design for advanced weathering steel include addition of various alloying elements which can enhance formation of stable and protective rust layer even in polluted urban and/or high $Cl^{-}$ environment. The effects of Ca, Ni, W, and Mo addition on the corrosion property of Ca-modified weathering steel were evaluated through a series of electrochemical tests (pH measurement and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy: EIS) and structural analysis on rust layer formed on the steel surface. Ca-containing inclusions of Ca-Al-Mn-O-S compound are formed if the amount of Ca addition is over 25 ppm. Steels with higher Ca content results in higher pH value for condensed water film formed on the steel surface, however, addition of Ni, W, and Mo does not affect pH value of the thin water film. The steels containing a high amount of Ca, Ni, W and Mo showed a dense and compact rust layer with enhanced amount of ${\alpha}-FeOOH$. Addition of Ni, W and Mo in Ca-modified weathering steel shows anion-selectivity and contributes to lower the permeability of $Cl^{-}$ ions. Effect of each alloying element on the formation of protective rust layer will be discussed in detail with respect to corrosion resistance.

  • Mn-Zn ferrite를 가공하여 VCR헤드의 제조과정에서 비자성체 gap용 $SiO_{2}$증착층과 유리와의 접합시 유리내에 기포 형태의 결함이 발생하는 경우가 있다. 기판의 조도나 $SiO_{2}$의 증착속도의 영향을 분석한 결과, 기포의 생성원인이 $SiO_{2}$ 증착층과 접합유리의 융착시 계면에 존재하는 요철의 불완전한 충진에 의한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 이러한 기포생성을 억제시키는 위해서는 기판을 최대한 경면 연마시켜 표면조도를 작게하고 $SiO_{2}$증착속도를 조절함으로써 $SiO_{2}$증착층의 표면조도를 작게하여 유리 융착시 계변의 요철 크기를 작게해야 한다. 기판을 0.05$\mu\textrm{m}$알루미나 분말로 경면연마시키고, 10% Osub 2/분압을 갖는 Ar plasma상태하로 조절된 증착속도로 즈악된 $SiO_{2}$증착층과 접합유리의 융착시 기포가 전혀 발생치 않았다.

  • 수직자기이방성을 갖는 $[Pd/Co]_N$ 다층박막을 이용한 스핀밸브구조에서 Cu에 인접한 강자성층의 물질의 종류와 두께에 따른 자기적 특성을 연구하였다. 본 연구에서 강한 수직자기이방성에 기인한 자유층의 큰 보자력을 줄이기 위하여 Cu 비자성층에 인접 한 강자성층에 물질을 NiFe, $Co_8Fe_2$, $Co_9Fe_1$로 삽입하여 각 물질이 갖는 수직 이방성 크기를 조절하여 수직자기 이방성을 갖는 스핀밸브 구조의 자기적 특성을 실험하였다. $Co_9Fe_1$ 물질을 Cu에 인접한 두 강자성층에 0.078 nm의 얇은 두께로 삽입한 결과 0.58%의 자기저항비를 가짐과 동시에 5 Oe의 작은 보자력을 나타내었다. 또한 그 두께를 0.7 nm로 증가시켰을 때 최대 6.7%의 자기저항비를 얻었고 자유층의 보자력을 약 100 Oe로 감소시켰다.
