본 논문에서는 액정 디스플레이의 구현에 있어서 필수적인 필름인 편광판에 ITO를 증착하여 기존 액정 디스플레이에서 두께의 대부분을 차지하는 유리기판을 제거함으로써 경략 박형 액정 셀을 구현하였다. 저온($40^{\circ}C$)에서 편광판에 sputtering으로 buffer layer와 ITO를 증착하여 높은 투과율과 낮은 비저항 및 편평도를 확보하였다. 최종적으로 저온공정이 가능한 ion-beam 배향법을 이용하여 액정을 배향하고 액정 셀을 제작하고 전기광학특성을 확인하였다.

The degradation mechanisms of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) were investigated in different thermal fatigue condition in terms of microstructural analyses. The isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests were conducted to atmospheric plasma sprayed-TBCs on NIMONIC 263 substrates. The delamination occurred by the oxide layer formation at the interface, the Ni/Cr-based oxide was formed after Al-based oxide layer grew up to ${\sim}10{\mu}m$ in the isothermal condition. In the cyclic oxidation with dwell time, the failure occurred earlier (500 hr) than in the isothermal oxidation (900 hr) at same temperature. The thickness of Al-based oxide layer of the delaminated specimen in the cyclic condition was ${\sim}4{\mu}m$ and the interfacial cracks were observed. The acoustic emission method revealed that the cracks generated during the cooling step. It was considered that the specimens were prevented from the formation of the Al-based oxide by cooling treatment, and the degradation mode in the cyclic test was dominantly interfacial cracking by the difference of thermal expansion coefficients of the coating layers.

The thermal oxidation of Ge$_{0.2}$Si$_{0.8}$ in wet ambient has been investigated by Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry(RBS). A uniform Ge$_{0.2}$Si$_{0.8}$O$_{2}$ oxide is formed at temperatures below 650.deg. C for polycrystalline and below 700.deg. C for single crystalline substrates. At higher temperatures Ge becomes depleted from the oxide and finally SiO$_{2}$ oxide is formed with Ge piled-ub behind it. The transition between the different oxide types depends also on the crystallinity of Ge$_{0.2}$Si$_{0.8}$. When a uniform Ge$_{0.2}$Si$_{0}$8/O$_{2}$ oxide grows, its thickness is proportional to the square root of the oxidation time, which suggests that the rate noting process is the diffusive transport of oxidant across the oxide. It is believed the oxidation is controlled by the competition between the diffusion of Ge or Si in Ge$_{0.2}$Si$_{0.8}$ and the movement of oxidation front.t.oxidation front.t.

We present the detection characteristics of nitrogen monoxide(NO) gas using p-type copper oxide(CuO) thin film gas sensors. The CuO thin films were fabricated on glass substrates by a sol-gel spin coating method using copper acetate hydrate and diethanolamine as precursors. Structural characterizations revealed that we prepared the pure CuO thin films having a monoclinic crystalline structure without any obvious formation of secondary phase. It was found from the NO gas sensing measurements that the p-type CuO thin film gas sensors exhibited a maximum sensitivity to NO gas in dry air at an operating temperature as low as $100^{\circ}C$. Additionally, these CuO thin film gas sensors were found to show reversible and reliable electrical response to NO gas in a range of operating temperatures from $60^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. It is supposed from these results that the p-type oxide semiconductor CuO thin film could have significant potential for use in future gas sensors and other oxide electronics applications using oxide p-n heterojunction structures.

The fabrication of vanadium oxide films directly on Si(100) substrates by plasma atomic layer deposition(ALD) with vanadium oxytriisopropoxide(VOIP) and oxygen as the reactants have been performed at temperature ranging from 250 to $450^{\circ}C$. Growth rate of vanadium oxide was $2.8{\AA}$/cycle at $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ defined as ALD acceptable temperature window, Vanadium oxide has been shown the different phases at $250^{\circ}C$ and more than $300^{\circ}C$. It has been confirmed that the phase of the films deposited at $250^{\circ}C\;was\;V_2O_5$ type and that of the films above $300^{\circ}C\;was\;VO_2(T)$ type measured at room temperature, respectively. A large change in resistance and small temperature hysteresis corresponding to a temperature has been observed in the vanadium oxide film deposited at temperature $350^{\circ}C$.

The use of dolomite refractories has increased during the past several years in the manufacturing of clean steel during the stainless steelmaking process. However, at the same time, the use of dolomite refractories has led to what is known as the skull formation. In the present work, to understand the skull formation, the wetting characteristics of dolomite substrates by liquid Fe-19wt%Cr-10wt%Ni alloys in various oxygen partial pressures were initially investigated at 1753K using the sessile drop technique. For comparison, the wetting characteristics of alumina substrates were investigated with the same technique. It was found that the wetting index, (1+$cos{\theta}$), of dolomite is approximately 40% higher compared to those of alumina. In addition, the oxygen partial pressure to generate the surface oxide, which may capture the liquid metal on the refractory surface, for dolomite is much lower than that for alumina. From this study, it was concluded that the use of dolomite is much more closely associated with the skull formation compared to the use of alumina due to the stronger wettability and the surface oxide formation at a lower oxygen partial pressure of dolomite.

This article introduces the characterization of spin coated ZnO transparent conducting oxide on the flexible substrates. As a II-IV compound semiconductor, ZnO has a wide band gap of 3.37 eV with transparent properties. Due to this transparent properties, ZnO materials can be also employed as the transparent conducting electrode materials. Therefore, strong demands have been required for the transparent electrodes with low temperature processing and cheap cost. So, We will investigate the electrical property and optical transmittance of ZnO transparent conducting oxide through the 4-point probe resistivity meter, and ultraviolet-vis spectrometer Lamda 35, respectively.

Au/oxide/n-InP Schottky diodes were fabricated from heteroepitaxial InP layers grown on GaAs substrates by the metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) method from a new combination of source materials: ethyldimethylindium (EDMIn) and tertiarybutylphosphine (TBP). Anodic oxidation technique by using a solution of 10 g of ammonium pentaborate in 100 cc of ethylene glycole as the electrolyte was used to deposit a thin oxide layer. The barrier heights determined from three different techniques, current-voltage (I-V) measurements at room temperature and in the temperature range of 273 K - 373 K, and room temperature capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements are in good agreement, 0.7 - 0.9 eV which is considerably high as compared to the 0.45 - 0.55 eV in Au/n-InP Schottky diode without a Passivation layer. The ideality factors of 1.1 - 1.3 of the Schottky diodes were also determined from the I-Y characteristics. Deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) studies revealed only one shallow electron state at 92.6 meV below the bottom of the conduction band and no deep state in the heteroepitaxial InP layers grown from EDMIn and TBP.

In this work, the properties of Indium-Zinc-Tin-Oxide (IZTO) thin films, deposited on polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) with a $SiO_2$ buffer layer, were analyzed with different working pressures. After depositing the $SiO_2$ buffer layer on PEN substrates by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), the IZTO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering with 1 to 7-mTorr working pressure. All the IZTO thin films show an amorphous structure, regardless of the working pressure. The best morphological, electrical, and optical properties are obtained at 3-mTorr working pressure, with a surface roughness of 2.112-nm, a sheet resistance of $8.87-{\Omega}/sq$, and a transmittance at 550-nm of 88.44%. These results indicate that IZTO thin films deposited on PEN have outstanding electrical and optical properties, and the PEN plastic substrate is a suitable material for display devices.

The development of next generation displays such as flexible display is a major challenge. Most materials and processes in current flat panel display industry cannot be transferred to flexible substrates. Typically, indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films are brittle and need to be deposited at high temperature to achieve an optimal opto-electrical property, therefore ITO films cannot be used as a flexible electrode. Up to date, many alternative materials to ITO have been proposed such as conductive polymers, nanometals, solution deposited transparent conductive oxide(TCO) and carbon nanotubes(CNTs). CNT based transparent conductive films are fabricated on glass and polymer substrates. CNT thin films exhibit a sheet resistance ($R_s$) of nearby $10^3\;{\Omega}/sq$ with a transmittance of around 80% on the visible light range, which is attributed by excellent dispersion and interaction among CNTs, solvents and polymeric binders. This talk will present the current studies, opto-electrical properties, design criteria and its applications for CNT-based transparent conductive films.
