This paper presents organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) with poly(3-hexylthiophene)(P3HT) semiconductor and several polymeric dielectric materials of poly(vinyl phenol)(PVP), poly(vinyl alcohol)(PVA), and polyimide(PI) by using soluble process. The fabricated OTFT's have inverted staggered structure using transmission line method(TLM) pattern. In order to evaluate the electrical characteristics of the OTFT, capacitance-voltage(C-V) and current-voltage(I-V) were measured. C-V graphs were measured at several frequencies of 100 Hz, 1 kHz, and 1 MHz and ID-VDS graphs according to $V_{GS}$. The current on/off ratio and threshold voltage with each of PVP, PVA, and PI based OTFTs were measured to $10^3$, and -0.36, -0.41, and -0.62 V. Also, the calculated mobility with each of PVP, PVA, and PI was 0.097, 0.095, and 0.028 $cm^{2}V^{-1}s^{-1}$, respectively. In the cases of PVP and PVA, the hole mobility of P3HT was in excellent agreement with the published value of 0.1 $cm^{2}V^{-1}s^{-1}$.

In this study, the push-pull structure polymer for organic photo voHaics (OPVs) was synthesized and characterized. The poly{4,8-didodecyloxybenzo[1,2-b;3,4-b]dithiophene-alt-5,6-bis(octyloxy)-4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)benzo[c][1,2,5]-thiadiazole} (PDBDT-TBTD) was synthesized by Stille coupling reaction using the benzothiadiazole (BTD) derivative as an electron acceptor and benzodithiophene (BDT) derivative as an electron donor. The structure of monomers and polymers was identified by $^1H-NMR$ and GC-MS. The optical, physical and electrochemical properties of the conjugated polymer were identified by GPC, TGA, UV-Vis and cyclic voltammetry. The number average molecular weight ($M_n$) and initial decomposition temperature (5% weight loss temperature, $T_d$) of PDBDT-TBTD were 6200 and $323^{\circ}C$, respectively. The absorption maxima on the film was about 599 nm and the optical band gap was about 1.70 eV. The structure of device was ITO/PEDOT : PSS/PDBDT-TBTD : $PC_{71}BM/BaF_2/Ba/Al$. PDBDT-TBTD and $PC_{71}BM$ were blended with the weight ratio of 1:2 which were then used as an optical active layer. The power conversion efficiency (PCE) of fabricated device was measured by solar simulator and the best PCE was 2.1%.

Superstrate pin amorphous silicon thin-film(a-Si:H) solar cells are prepared on $SnO_2:F$ and ZnO:Al transparent conducting oxides(TCO) in order to see the effect of TCO/p-layers on a-Si:H solar cell operation. The solar cells prepared on textured ZnO:Al have higher open circuit voltage VOC than cells prepared on $SnO_2:F$. Presence of thin microcrystalline p-type silicon layer(${\mu}c-Si:H$) between ZnO:Al and p a-SiC:H plays a major role by causing improvement in fill factor as well as $V_{OC}$ of a-Si:H solar cells prepared on ZnO:Al TCO. Without any treatment of pi interface, we could obtain high $V_{OC}$ of 994mV while keeping fill factor(72.7%) and short circuit current density $J_{SC}$ at the same level as for the cells on $SnO_2:F$ TCO. This high $V_{OC}$ value can be attributed to modification in the current transport in this region due to creation of a potential barrier.

최근 이동통신 LED 에너지 자동차 산업분야에서 제품의 고기능화 고성능화를 위한 신소재 개발 및 친환경적인 신공정 개발에 있어, PI 또는 PET와 같은 유연성 소재 위에 선택적 패턴 도금 기술, 고기능성 나노/복합 도금 등이 주목 받고 있다. 또한 전 세계적으로 유해물질의 수 출입 규제 움직임이 강력하게 제기되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 유연성 소재인 PET 위에 친환경적 방법으로 구리를 선택적으로 도금하기 위한 실험을 진행하였다. 준비된 PET 필름 위에 Ag paste를 Screen Printing법을 이용하여 Ag 전극을 패턴하고, 그 위에 무전해 도금방식을 이용하여 Ni과 Cu가 도금 되도록 하였다. Ni 무전해 도금은 pH6.5, 65도에서 시행되었으며, Cu 무전해 도금은 환경규제물질인 포름알데히드 대신에 차아인산나트륨을 사용하여 70도에서, 중성근처의 pH 농도(pH7과 pH8)에서 시행되었다. 이들 다층 박막에 대해 X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy) 등을 이용하여 물리-화학적/전기적 특성들을 이용하여 조사 분석하였다.

The influence of $O_2$ partial pressure on saturation mgnetization, coercivity, anisotropy field and effective permeability (over 1GHz) of as-deposited Co-Fe-Al-O thin films, which were fabricated by RF magnetron reactive sputtering method, were investigated. The $Co_{69.9}Fe_{20.5}A_{14.4O_{5.2}$ thin film fabricated at $O_2$ partial pressure of 4% exhibits the best magnetic softness with saturation magnetization 4${$pi}$Ms of 18.1 kG, coercivity of 0.82 Oe, anisotropy field ($H_k$) of Oe, and effective permeability (${\mu}_{eff}$) about 1,024 above 1 GHz. the electrical resistivity of Co-Fe-Al-O thin films were increased with increasing $O_2$ partial pressure, the electrical resistivity of $Co_{69.9}Fe_{20.5}A_{14.4O_{5.2}$ thin film with the best soft magnetic properties was 560.7 ${\mu}{\Omega}$am. Therefore, It is assumed that the good soft magnetic properties of $Co_{69.9}Fe_{20.5}A_{14.4O_{5.2}$ thin film results from high electrical resistivity and large anisotropy field.

This paper is for multi-frequency thin film loop antenna used on smart phone, PMP and PDA like as a multi-media devices. We developed a loop pattern folding methods to reduce a thin film antenna dimension using that mutual coupling folding loop occurs the higher frequency resonation. To reduce the thin film size for loop antenna, we fold the loop pattern repeatedly control the coupling coefficient than generate a not only higher mode resonation but also basic resonation from loop pattern. To realization the thin film folded loop antenna, we used a $30mm{\times}9mm$ PI film the thickness is 20um so that we realize the CDMA850, GPS, DCS, PCS, WCDMA antenna simultaneously and it's radiation efficiency is over 50% and gain is 0dBi.

We investigate characteristics of J-aggregation as take advantage of LB technic. In order to confirm the applications possible for the molecular electronic device, the morphological properties of merocyanine dye were investigated by AFM. $\pi$-A curves investigated the surface pressure of the LB film from a liquid to a solid state ranged between 90 and 100 mN/m. We observed aggregation and it's characteristics by using visible reflection spectroscopy. This paper focuses on results obtained in mercocyanide dye. When LB films of merocyanine dye are mixed with arachidic acid, J-aggregate formation is exhibited. J-aggregate formation has been serving as typical systems in revealing the physical and structural aspects of nano-sized molecular aggregates constructed as muiltilayers.

The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method has been one of the most suitable techniques for fabricating organic thin films with well-controlled structures, compositions and thickness at the molecular level. We investigated the surface activity of dendrimer films at air-water interface by $\pi$-A isotherm. Also, we attempted to fabricate a G3-9Ph dendritic silsequioxane LB films. And their surface morphologies were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM).

We studied on the ultra thin L-${\alpha}$-DLPC by LB method. The $\pi$-A isotherm of the L-${\alpha}$-DLPC was measured at the air-water interface varying with the compressing speed and amounts of solutions for spreading. The molecular arrangement of deposited films were evaluated by measuring the absorption with the UVspectrometer. And we made structures of metal(Au)/L-${\alpha}$-DLPC/Metal(Au) and examined electron through L-${\alpha}$-DLPC LB films by means of current-voltage(I-V) measurement.
