Transfer molding methods have a problem that weak adhesion between nanostructures and substrates. It is important to make various nano scale applications, also the stability of nanostructure on substrate is related with device performance. We studied an effect of poly 4-vinylphenol (PVP) as the polymeric adhesion layer between organic nanowires and a Si substrate when the nanowires are transferred by liquid-bridge-mediated nanotransfer molding method (LB-nTM). Their structural stability was examined by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy as multiple transfer molding and washing process. Field-effect transistors were fabricated with organic semiconductor nanowires on a polymeric adhesion layer and their electrical properties showed no significant difference as the one without the adhesion layer. As a result, adhesion layer can be used in the washing process and making multi-layer nano-scale patterns.

In this paper, it was demonstrated that organic thin- film transistors (OTFTs) were fabricated with the organic adhesion layer between an organic semiconductor and a gate insulator by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) processing. In order to form polymeric film as an adhesion layer, VDP process was also introduced instead of spin-coating process, where polymeric film was co-deposited by high-vacuum thermal evaporation from 6FDA and ODA followed by curing. The saturated slop in the saturation region and the subthreshold nonlinearity in the triode region were c1early observed in the electrical output characteristics in our organic thin film transistors using the staggered-inverted top-contact structure. Field effect mobility, threshold voltage, and on-off current ratio in 15-nm-thick organic adhesion layer were about $0.5\;cm^2/Vs$, -1 V, and $10^6$, respectively. We also demonstrated that threshold voltage depends strongly on the delay time when a gate voltage has been applied to bias stress.

The electrical characteristics of organic thin-filmtransistor (OTFTs) can be improved by inserting adhesion layer on gate dielectrics. Adhesion layer was used as polymeric adhesion layer deposited on inorganic gate insulators such as silicon dioxide $(SiO_2)$ and it was formed by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) instead of spin-coating process. The OTFTs obtained the on/off ratio $of{\sim}10^4$, threshold voltage of 1.8V, subthreshold slop of 2.9 V/decade and field effect mobility about $0.01\;cm^2/Vs$.

In this study, application of SAM (self-assembled monolayer) to nano replication process as an anti-adhesion layer was presented to reduce the surface energy between the nano mold and the replicated polymeric nano patterns. The electron beam lithography was used for master nano patterns and the electorforming process was used to fabricate the nickel nano stamper. Alkanethiol SAM as an anti-adhesion layer was deposited on metallic nano stamper using solution deposition method. To analyze wettability and adhesion force of SAM, contact angle and LFM (Lateral Force Microscopy) were measured at the actual processing temperature and pressure for the case of nano compression molding and at the actual UV dose for the case of nano UV molding. It was found that the surface energy due to SAM deposition on the nickel nano stamper markedly decreased and the quality of SAM on the nickel stamper maintained under the actual molding environments.

The electrical performances of organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) have been improved for the last decade. In this paper, it was demonstrated that the electrical characteristics of the organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) were improved by using polymeric material as adhesion layer on gate insulator. We have investigated OTFTs with polyimide adhesion layer which was fabricated by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) processing and formed by co-deposition of 2,2-bis (3,4-dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride and 4,4'-oxydianiline. It was found that the OTFTs with adhesion layer showed better electrical characteristics than with bare layer because of good matching between semiconductor and gate insulator. Our devices of performance are field effect mobility of $0.4cm^2/Vs$, threshold voltage of -0.8 V and on-off current ratio of $10^6$. In addition, to improve the electrical characteristics of OTFT, we have reduced the thickness of adhesion layer up to a few nanometrs.

폴리이미드 필름과 구리의 접착력을 향상시키기 위하여 이온빔과 실란-이미다졸 커플링제를 사용하여 폴리이미드 표면개질을 실시하였다. 실란-이미다졸 커플링제는 구리와의 배위결합을 형성하는 이미다졸 그룹과 실록산 폴리머를 형성하는 메톡시 실란 그룹을 함유한다. 폴리이미드 필름표면은 아르곤/산소 이온빔으로 일차로 처리하여 친수성을 높인 폴리이미드 필름에 커플링제 수용액에 침지하여 폴리이미드 필름 표면에 커플링제를 그라프트시켜 표면개질을 실시하였다. XPS 스펙트럼 분석결과 아르곤/산소 플라즈마 처리는 폴리이미드 표면에 하이드록시 및 카르보닐 그룹과 같은 산소 기능성기를 형성함을 알 수 있었고 폴리이미드 필름 표면에 실란-이미다졸과의 커플링반응에 의하여 표면이 개질되었음을 확인하였다. 이온빔을 사용하여 그라프트된 폴리이미드 필름과 구리와의 접착력은 처리되지 않은 폴리이미드 필름과의 접착력 보다 높은 접착력을 나타내었다. 또한 커플링제로 그라프트된 폴리이미드 필름의 접착력 보다 아르곤/산소의 양자화 이온을 이용하여 개질한 그라프트된 폴리이미드 필름의 시편이 더 높은 접착력을 나타내었다. 구리-폴리이미드 필름의 계면으로부터 박리된 층은 분석결과 완전히 서로 다른 화학적 조성을 나타내었는데 이것으로부터 박리가 접합면의 커플링제 내에서 일어나는 것보다는 폴리이미드와 커플링제의 사이에서 일어남을 확인하였다.

High shear adhesion on wet and rough surfaces and tactile feedback of gripping forces are highly important for realizing robotic gripper systems. Here, we propose a bioinspired robotic gripper with highly shear adhesion and sensitive pressure sensor for tactile feedback systems. To achieve them, we fabricated multi-walled carbon nanotube sensing layer on a thin polymeric adhesive layer of polydimethylsiloxane. With densely hexagonal-packed microstructures, the pressure sensor achieved 9 times the sensing property of a sensor without microstructures. We then assembled hexagonal microstructures inspired by the toe pads of a tree frog, giving strong shear adhesion under both dry and wet surfaces such as silicon (42 kPa for dry and ~30 kPa for underwater conditions) without chemical-residues after detachment. Our robotic gripper can prevent damage to weak or smooth surfaces that can be damaged at low pressure through pressure signal feedback suggesting a variety of robotic applications.

We demonstrated that the threshold voltage shift owing to a gate-bias stress is originated from the trapped charges at the interface between semiconductor layer and dielectric layer, and such drawback can be settled by applying long-term delay time to the gate electrode.

Polymeric films of high chemical stability and mechanical strength covered with a thin metallic film have been extensively used in various fields as electric and electronic materials. In this study, we have chosen polypropylene (PP) as the polymer due to its outstanding chemical resistance and good creep resistance. We coated thin nickel film on PP films by the electroless plating process. The surfaces of PP films were pre-treated and modified to increase the adhesion strength of metal layer on PP films, prior to the plating process, by an environment-friendly process with atmospheric plasma generated using dielectric barrier discharges in air. The surface morphologies of the PP films were observed before and after the surface modification process using a scanning electron microscope (SEM). The static contact angles were measured with deionized water droplets. The cross-sectional images of the PP films coated with thin metal film were taken with SEM to see the combined state between metallic and PP films. The adhesion strength of the metallic thin films on the PP films was confirmed by the thermal shock test and the cross-cutting and peel test. In conclusion, we made a composite material of metallic and polymeric films of high adhesion strength.
