Experiment study on a down scaled two-phase catalytic reactor is presented. As a preliminary step for the development of catalytic reactor, nano-particulate catalyst was prepared. Perovskite La$\_$0.8/Sr$\_$0.2/CoO$_3$is chosen and synthesized as a catalyst considering superior catalytic performance in reduction and oxidation process where oxygen is involved among the reagent. Reactor that has a scale of 2${\times}$10${\times}$25mm was made by machining of A1 block as a layered structure considering further extension to micro-machining. Hydrogen peroxide of 70wt% was adopted as reactant and was provided to the reactor loaded with 1.5 g of catalyst. Reactant flow rate was varied by precision pump with a range of 0.15cc/min to 17.2cc/min. Temperature distribution within reactor was recorded by 3 thermocouples and total amount of liquid product was measured. Temperature distribution and factors that affect temperature were observed and relation between temperature distribution and production rate was also analyzed. Relative time scale plays a significant role in the performance of the reactor. To obtain steady state operation, appropriate ratio of flow rate, catalyst mass and reactor geometry is required and furthermore to get more efficient production rate temperature distribution should be evenly distributed. The database obtained by the experiment will be used as a design parameter for micro reactor.

An investigation is reported on the coating of ZnS:Cu,Cl phosphors by $HfO_2$ using atomic layer deposition method. Hafnium oxide films were prepared at the chamber temperature of $280^{\circ}C$ using $Hf[N(CH_3)_2]_4\;and\;O_2$ as precursors and reactant gas, respectively. XPS and ICP-MS analysis showed the surface composition of coated phosphor powder was hafnium oxide. In FE-SEM analysis, the surface morphology of uncoated phosphors became smoother and clearer as the number of ALD cycle increased from 900 to 1800. The photoluminescence intensity for coated phosphors showed $7.3{\sim}13.4%$ higher than that of uncoated. The effect means that the reactive surface is uniformly coated with stable hafnium oxide to reduce the dead surface layer without change of bulk properties and also its absorptance is almost negligible due to ultrathin(nano-scaled) films. The growth rate is about $1.1{\AA}/cycle$.

ZrN nanoparticles were prepared by an exothermic reduction of $ZrCl_4$ with $NaN_3$ in the presence of NaCl flux in a nitrogen atmosphere. Using a solid-state combustion approach, we have demonstrated that the zirconium nitride nanoparticles synthesis process can be completed in only several minutes compared with a few hours for previous synthesis approaches. The chemistry of the combustion process is not complex and is based on a metathesis reaction between $ZrCl_4$ and $NaN_3$. Because of the low melting and boiling points of the raw materials it was possible to synthesize the ZrN phase at low combustion temperatures. It was shown that the combustion temperature and the size of the particles can be readily controlled by tuning the concentration of the NaCl flux. The results show that an increase in the NaCl concentration (from 2 to 13 M) results in a temperature decrease from 1280 to $750^{\circ}C$. ZrN nanoparticles have a high surface area (50-70 $m^2/g$), narrow pore size distribution, and nano-particle size between 10 and 30 nm. The activation energy, which can be extracted from the experimental combustion temperature data, is: E = 20 kcal/mol. The method reported here is self-sustaining, rapid, and can be scaled up for a large scale production of a transition metal nitride nanoparticle system (TiN, TaN, HfN, etc.) with suitable halide salts and alkali metal azide.

본 연구에서는 실리카/고무 복합재료의 기계적 계면 물성과 열안정성에 대한 산소플라즈마의 영향에 대하여 살펴보았다. 실리카의 표면특성은 XPS와 접촉각 측정을 통하여 살펴보았다. 실리카/고무 복합재료의 기계적 물성과 열안정성은 각각 인열에너지 ($G_{IIIC}$)와 열중량분석(TGA)를 통하여 관찰하였다. 실험결과, 플라즈마 처리시간이 증가함에 따라 실리카 표면에 산소가 함유된 극성 관능기의 도입량이 증가하였으며, 이에 따라 고무 복합재료의 인열에너지와 열안정성이 향상되었다. 이러한 결과는 NBR과 같은 극성고무가 산소가 함유된 관능기가 도입된 실리카와 상대적으로 높은 상호작용을 하기 때문으로 판단된다.

Precise control of the position and density of doping elements at the nanoscale is becoming a central issue for realizing state-of-the-art silicon-based optoelectronic devices. As dimensions are scaled down to take benefits from the quantum confinement effect, however, the presence of interfaces and the nature of materials adjacent to silicon turn out to be important and govern the physical properties. Utilization of visible light is a promising method to overcome the efficiency limit of the crystalline Si solar cells. Si quantum dots (QDs) have been proposed as an emission source of visible light, which is based on the quantum confinement effect. Light emission in the visible wavelength has been reported by controlling the size and density of Si QDs embedded within various types of insulating matrix. For the realization of all-Si QD solar cells with homojunctions, it is prerequisite not only to optimize the impurity doping for both p- and n-type Si QDs, but also to construct p-n homojunctions between them. In this study, XPS and SIMS were used for the development of p-type and n-type Si quantum dot solar cells. The stoichiometry of SiOx layers were controlled by in-situ XPS analysis and the concentration of B and P by SIMS for the activated doping in Si nano structures. Especially, it has been experimentally evidenced that boron atoms in silicon nanostructures confined in SiO2 matrix can segregate into the Si/$SiO_2$ interfaces and the Si bulk forming a distinct bimodal spatial distribution. By performing quantitative analysis and theoretical modelling, it has been found that boron incorporated into the four-fold Si crystal lattice can have electrical activity. Based on these findings, p-type Si quantum dot solar cell with the energy-conversion efficiency of 10.2% was realized from a [B-doped $SiO_{1.2}$(2 nm)/$SiO_2(2\;nm)]^{25}$ superlattice film with a B doping level of $4.0{\times}10^{20}\;atoms/cm^2$.

ULSI(ultra large scaled integrated circuits)의 고집적화와 고속화를 위한 다층 배선 기술 중에서 층간 절연막의 특성을 향상시켜주는 것은 매우 중요한 요소이다. 소자의 소형화에 따른 절연층의 용량에 의한 신호의 지연을 방지하고 금속배선간의 상호간섭을 막아주기 위해서 현재 요구되는 0.13$\mu\textrm{m}$급 소자의 경우에서는 유전율이 매우 낮은 k$\leq$2.0인 층간 절연막이 필요하게 된다. 이러한 차세대 반도체 소자의 층간 절연물질로서 사용될 유력한 저유전 물질로 Nanoporous silica(k=1.3~2.5)를 적용하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다(1)-(3). 그러한 물질 중에 하나가 organosilicate films이 있는데 carbon-doped oxides, silicon-oxicarbides, carbon-incorporated silicon oxide film, organic-inorganic hybrid type Si-O-C thin films 혹은 organic-inorganic hybrid silica materials 등으로 불린다. 이에 본 연구에서는 nano-pore를 갖는 유무기 하이브리드 구조의 저유전 박막을 BTMSM/O$_2$의 혼합된 precursor를 사용하여 ICPCVD 방법에 의해 형성하였다. 총 유량을 20sccm이 되도록 하여 $O_2$:BTMSM(Ar)의 유량비를 변화시키며, 작업진공도는 300mTorr였다. 기판은 가열하지 않고, p-type Si(100) 위에 Si-O-C-H 박막을 형성하였다. 열적안정성을 조사하기 위하여 30$0^{\circ}C$, 40$0^{\circ}C$, 50$0^{\circ}C$에서 30분간 열처리하여 비교 분석하였다. 형성된 박막의 특성은 XPS로 분석하여 유전상수와의 상관관계를 조사하였다.
