$TiO_2$ thin films for high energy density capacitors were prepared by r.f. magnetron sputtering at room temperature. Flexible PET (Polyethylene terephtalate) substrate was used to maintain the structure of the commercial film capacitors. The effects of deposition pressure on the crystallization and electrical properties of $TiO_2$ films were investigated. The crystal structure of $TiO_2$ films deposited on PET substrate at room temperature was unrelated to deposition pressure and showed an amorphous structure unlike that of films on Si substrate. The grain size and surface roughness of films decreased with increasing deposition pressure due to the difference of mean free path. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed the formation of chemically stable $TiO_2$ films. The dielectric constant of $TiO_2$ films was significantly changed with deposition pressure. $TiO_2$ films deposited at low pressure showed high dissipation factor due to the surface microstructure. The dielectric constant and dissipation factor of films deposited at 70 mTorr were found to be 100~120 and 0.83 at 1 kHz, respectively. The temperature dependence of the capacitance of $TiO_2$ films showed the properties of class I ceramic capacitors. $TiO_2$ films deposited at 10~30 mTorr showed dielectric breakdown at applied voltage of 7 V. However, the films of 500~300 nm thickness deposited at 50 and 70 mTorr showed a leakage current of ${\sim}10^{-8}{\sim}10^{-9}$ A at 100 V.

Using an evaporation system, $SiO_2$ was deposited as a buffer layer between a PET substrate and a ITO layer and then ITO/$SiO_2$/PET layers were annealed for 1.5 hours at the temperature of $180^{\circ}C$. Adhesion and electro-optical properties of ITO films were studied with thickness variance of a $SiO_2$ buffer layer. As a result of introduction of the $SiO_2$ buffer layer, sheet resistance and resistivity increased and a ITO film with optimum sheet resistance ($529.3{\Omega}/square$) for an upper ITO film of resistive type touch panel could be obtained when $SiO_2$ of $50{\AA}$ was deposited. And it was found that ITO films with $SiO_2$ buffer layer have higher transmittance of $88{\sim}90%$ at 550 nm wavelength than ITO films with no buffer layers and the transmittance was enhanced as $SiO_2$ thickness increased from $50{\AA}$ to $100{\AA}$. Adhesion property of ITO films with $SiO_2$ buffer layers became better than ITO films with no buffer layers and this property was independent of $SiO_2$ thickness variance ($50{\sim}100{\AA}$). By depositing a $SiO_2$ buffer layer of $50{\AA}$ on the PET substrate and sputtering a ITO thin film on the layer, a ITO film with enhanced adhesion, electro-optical properties could be obtained.

본 연구에서 연속형 레이저와 나노초 레이저의 경우에는 고분자와 물성 조건이 맞지 않아서, 고분자 필름 표면에 특정 패터닝이 구현되지 않았다. 그러나, 펨토초 레이저를 활용하여 HDPE, PP, PET 등의 식품포장 필름의 표면에 패터닝이 구현됨을 확인하였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 식품포장 필름에서 펨토초 레이저 패터닝 공정 조건을 확립하였고, 싱글 펄스에 의한 대면적 원형 패턴, 싱글 펄스를 30%를 중첩한 대면적 거칠기 패턴, 직선 패턴, 직선 패터닝을 중첩한 대면적 거칠기 패턴, 직선 패터닝을 교차하여 격자 패턴 등의 표면 패터닝 필름을 제작하였다. 또한, 표면 패턴 구조와 크기에 따른 패터닝 HDPE, PP, PET 필름은 SEM, AFM, 접촉각 분석을 통하여 그 특성을 확인하였다. 펨토초 레이저 패터닝을 하지 않은 각 대조군 필름의 표면 대비 대면적 원형 패터닝 HDPE 및 PP 필름, 싱글 펄스를 30%를 중첩한 대면적 거칠기 패터닝 및 직선 패터닝을 중첩한 대면적 거칠기 패터닝 PET 필름의 표면은 27.1-37.5°의 접촉각을 나타냄으로써, 패터닝 후에 HDPE, PP, PET 필름은 친수성 표면으로 변화되었다. 반면, 나노-마이크로 크기의 돌기 표면구조를 갖고 있는 대면적 격자 패터닝 HDPE 필름의 경우에는 120.4°의 접촉각을 보임으로써, 패터닝 후에 소수성 표면으로 변화되었다. 따라서, 패터닝을 통해 친수성 표면으로 바뀐 필름들은 단백질, 세포, 바이러스 등을 비롯하여 식품의 물질들이 달라붙지 못하거나, 쉽게 떨어지는 엔티파울링 응용분야에 활용이 가능하다. 또한, 향후 좀더 정밀한 나노 및 마이크로 돌기 구조를 갖는 격자 패터닝을 통해 150° 이상의 초소수성 표면을 제작하게 된다면, 자가 청소(Self-cleaning) 등의 초소수성 표면 응용분야에 활용 가능할 것이다.

Thickness-dependent electrical, structural, and optical properties of zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates were investigated in the very thin thickness range of 20 to 120 nm. A very unusual transition phenomenon, in which electrical resistance increases with an increase in film thickness, was observed. From structural and compositional analyses, this transition behavior was explained to arise from metallic Zn agglomerates dispersed in non-crystalline Zn-O matrix. It was unveiled that film thickness more than 80 nm is required for the development of hexagonal crystal structure of ZnO. ZnO films on PET substrates exhibited high optical transmittance and good mechanical flexibility in the thickness range. The results of this study would provide a valuable guideline for the design of ZnO thin films on organic substrates for practical applications.

The 2 wt.% Al-doped ZnO(AZO) thin films were fabricated on PET substrates with various RF power 20, 35, 50, 65, and 80W by using RF magnetron sputtering in order to investigate the structure, electrical and optical properties of AZO thin films in this study. The XRD measurements showed that AZO films exhibit c-axis orientation. At a RF power of 80W, the AZO films showed the highest (002) diffraction peak with a FWHM of 0.42. At a RF power of 65W, the lowest electrical resistivity was about $1.64{\times}[10]$ ^(-4) ${\Omega}-cm$ and the average transmittance of all films including substrates was over 80% in visible range. Good transparence and conducting properties were obtained due to RF power control. The obtained results indicate that it is acceptable for applications as transparent conductive electrodes.

Al doped ZnO(AZO) films as a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) electrode were deposited on glass, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) at room temperature by a conventional rf-magneton sputtering (CMS) and a facing target sputtering (FTS) using Al2O3 and ZnO targets. In order to investigation of AZO properties, the structural, surface morphology, electrical, and optical characteristics of AZO films were respectively analyzed. The resistivities of AZO films using FTS system were $6.50{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on glass, $7.0{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PEN, and $7.4{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PET substrates, while the values of AZO films using CMS system were $7.6{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on glass, $1.20{\times}10-3{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PEN, and $1.58{\times}10-3{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PET substrates. The AZO-films deposited by FTS system showed uniform surface compared to those of the films by CMS system. We thought that the films deposited by FTS system had low stress due to bombardment of high energetic particles during CMS process, resulted in enhanced electrical conductivity and crystalline quality by highly c-axis preferred orientation and closely packed nano-crystalline of AZO films using FTS system.

Increasing use of plastics in food packaging materials has led to the issue of food-plastic packaging materials's mutual interactions. Although the plastic packaging materials are generally considered as inert, migration and sorption of fatty materials are some of the problems associated with their use. So, this work investigated the compatibility of three structurally different polymers, polypropylene (PP), polyethyleneterephthalate (PET) and ethylene vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH) with some structurally different food fats. The main goal was to study the sorption of food fats by the plastic films and to see what extent mechanical properties of the plastic films was affected by plasticization effect due to sorption of fatty materials. PP, PET, and EVOH films was immersed in pure triglycerides, and then extracted with hexane and analyzed for the amounts of fat migrated. The sorbed films were also investigated for change in mechanical properties. Result showed that structural factor of the films and fatty materials plays important role in th migration process. The fat with the simplest structure are migrated more easily that the fat with more complex structure. However, structural effect of migration was varied according to degree of crystallinity and density of plastic films. In addition to that, polarity of plastic film was affected migration of fatty materials significantly. Additional research is needed to justify the reason why migration of fatty materials into the films was affected by polarity and structural integrity.

Poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) and nylon 6 films stretched uniaxially and biaxially were sputter etched in the presence of argon gas. The surface of the etched films was investigated using a scanning electron microscope(SEM). While cracks perpendicular to the stretched direction were observed in the uniaxil stretched films sputter etched for 30 min., many protrusions were formed in the biaxial stretched films at the height of 0.3-0.4 gm for PET and $0.1-0.2\mum$ for nylon 6. The tops of two or three protrusions merged etching time increased to 60 min. The contact angle to water of the sputter etched PET and nylon 6 films decreased steeply when etched for one to 3 min. In order to investigate chemical changes on the surface ESCA analysis was carried out. In both films sputter etched $C_{1s}$ intensity decreased and $O_{1s}$ intensity increased compared with the unetched ones.

In this study, we introduce indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films grown by using a low-frequency magnetron sputtering method (LFMSM). Characteristics of the ITO thin films deposited on polyethersulfone (PES) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates are investigated. Experiments were carried out as a function of deposition time. ITO thin films on polymer substrates revealed amorphous structure. The optical, the electrical and structural properties of the films on PES substrate are better than those on PET substrates.
