Poly (vinylidene fluoride) thin films were deposited by a spray-coating technology. Two organic solvents with different boiling point were used to prepare the mixture solution for spray coating process: N-Methylpyrrolodone ($B.P.=202^{\circ}C$); Tetrahydrofuran ($B.P.=66^{\circ}C$). Post-deposition annealing temperature was varied for the spray-coated Poly(vinylidene fluoride) thin films. Structural characteristics of the thin films were comparatively investigated by FT-IR and XRD in relation with the organic solvent and post-deposition annealing temperature.

Conducting polymers have band structures similar to those of inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. Several electronic devices have been constructed with conjugated polymers, mainly Schottky diodes and Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors (MISFET's). Organic semiconductor has been reported as active materials in MISFET's.$^{1.4}$ In our laboratory, $\alpha$-Sexithiencyl ($\alpha$-6T) has been synthesized and purified by sublimation method. In this study, thin films of $\alpha$-Sexithienyl were prepared on various substrates in ultra-high vacuum chamber by vacuum evaporation method, so called OMBD(Organic Molocular Beam Deposition).$^{7.9}$ The $\alpha$-Sexithienyl thin films were deposited with various deposition conditions. The crystalline structure, and molecular orientation of these films have being studied by using UV/Vis. spectroscopy and X-Ray Diffractometry.

The effects of the zinc oxide (ZnO) preparing process on the performance of inverted organic photovoltaic cells (OPVs) were explored. The morphology and size of ZnO nanoparticles were controlled, leading to more efficient charge collection from device and higher electron mobility compared with nanospheres. Nanosized ZnO particles were synthesized by using zinc acetate dihydrate and potassium hydroxide in methanol. Also, water was added into the reaction medium to control the morphology of ZnO nanocrystals from spherical particles to rods, and $NH_4OH$ was used to prevent the gelation of dispersion. Solution-processed ZnO thin films were deposited onto the ITO/glass substrate by using spin coating process and then ZnO films were used as an electron transport layer in inverted organic photovoltaic cells. The analyses were carried out by using TEM, FE-SEM, AFM, DLS, UV-Vis spectroscopy, current density-voltage characteristics and solar simulator.

The azobenzene dendrimer is one of the dendrimeric macromolecules that include the azo-group exhibiting a photochromic character. Due to the presence of the charge transfer element of the azo-group and its rod-shaped structure, these compounds are expected to have potential interest in electronics and photoelectronics, especially in nonlinear optics. In the present paper, we give pressure stimulation to organic thin films and detect the induced displacement current. Functional photoisometrization organic molecular the photo-stimulus to organic monomolecular L films and LB films of dendrimer and SASH were performed. The SASH organic monolayer in case of pressure stimulus occurred that positive course but in case of the photo-stimulus compared positive and negative. It is assumed that generation forms of displacement current were measured when photo-stimulus for impression.

Polypropylene(PP)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWCNT) nanocomposites films and PP/poly(vinyl alcohol)/CNT nanocomposites films were prepared through melt mixing method by the extruder. The PP/CNT nanocomposites films, which contain CNT of a variable content, were prepared for the first time and research on a appropriate content of the CNT on the PP/CNT nanocomposites films was conducted. The effects of take-up speed of the extruder on the mechanical and chemical properties of the PP/CNT and PP/PVA/CNT nanocomposites film were studied. Field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) was used to examine the surface morphology and the DSC measurement and tensile test were conducted. It was found that the properties decreased when take-up speed was increased.

Thick inorganic-organic hybrid films were prepared on ITO-coated glass substrates by the electrophoretic sol-gel deposition of polyphenylsilsesquioxane particles. The morphology of the deposited films changed from the aggregate of the spherical particles to monolith by heat treatment at temperatures higher than $200^{\circ}C$. Transparency of the films was significantly improved accompanied by the morphological change of the particles. The degree of the morphological change was governed by two factors; maximum heat treatment temperature and heating rate. Transparent thick films of ca. 3$\mu\textrm{m}$ in thickness were obtained only by heat treatment at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2h with rapid heating from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$. These films obtained were strongly adhered to the ITO-coated glass substrates and has a very smooth surface.

Mo doped carbon (C:Mo) thin films were fabricated with various Mo target power densities by unbalanced magnetron sputtering (UBM). The effects of target power density on the surface, structural, and electrical properties of C:Mo films were investigated. UBM sputtered C:Mo thin films exhibited smooth and uniform surfaces. However, the rms surface roughness of C:Mo films were increased with the increase of target power density. Also, the resistivity value of C:Mo film as electrical properties was decreased with the increase of target power density. From the performance of organic thin filml transistor using conductive C:Mo gate electrode, the carrier mobility, threshold voltage, and on/off ratio of drain current (Ion/Ioff) showed $0.16cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, -6.0 V, and $7.7{\times}10^4$, respectively.

The Mn-doped copper nitride ($Cu_3N$) films with Mn concentration of 2.0 at. % have high crystallinity and uniform surface morphology. We found that the as-synthesized Mn-doped $Cu_3N$ films show suitable optical absorption in the visible region and the band gap is ~1.48 eV. A simple photodetector based on Mn doped $Cu_3N$ films was firstly fabricated via magnetron sputtering method. The fabricated device with doping of Mn demonstrated high photocurrent response and fast response shorter than 0.1 s both for rise and decay time superior to the pure $Cu_3N$. Furthermore, the energy levels of Mn-doped Cu3N matched well with ITO and Ag electrode. The excellent photoelectric properties reflect a good balance between sensitivities and response rate. Our investigation reveals the excellent potential of Mn-doped $Cu_3N$ films for application of photodetectors.

We give pressure stimulation into organic thin films and then manufacture a device under the accumulation condition that the state surface pressure is 10[mN/m]. In processing of a device manufacture, we can see the process is good from the change of a surface pressure for organic thin films and transfer ratio of area per molecule. The structure of manufactured device is Au/Poly-$\gamma$ Benzyl $_D$-Glutamate/Al; the number of accumulated layers is 1, 3, 5 and 7. Also, we then examined of the MIM device by means of I-V. The I-V characteristic of the device is measured from 0 to +2[V]. We determined electrochemical measurement by using cyclic voltammetry with a three-electrode system. LB film accumulated by monolayer on an ITO. In the cyclicvoltammetry, An Ag/AgCl reference electrode, a platinum wire counter electrode and LB film-coated ITO working electrode measured in $LiBF_4$ solution, stable up to 0.9V vs. Ag/AgCl.
