  • $Al_2O_3/SiC$ Hybrid-Composite has been fabricated by conventional powder process. The addition of $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ as seed particles in the transformation of $\gamma-Al_2O_3 to $\alpha-Al_2O_3$ provided a homogeneity of the microstructure, resulting in increase of mechanical properties. The grain growth of $Al_2O_3$ are significantly surpressed by the addition of nano-sized. SiC particles, increasing in fracture strength. The addition of SiC plates to $Al_2O_3$ nano-composite decreased the fracture strength, but increased the fracture toughness. Coated SiC plates with nitrides such as BN and /SiC$Si_3N_4$ enhanced fracture toughness much more than uncoated SiC plates by inducing crack deflection.

  • $Al_2O_3-SiC$ and $Al_2O_3-SiC$-TiC composite powders were prepared by SHS process using $SiO_2,\;TiO_2$, Al and C as raw materials. Aluminum powder was used as reducing agent of $SiO_2,\;TiO_2$ and activated charcoal was used as carbon source. In the preparations of $Al_2O_3-SiC$, the effect of the molar ratio in raw materials, compaction pressure, preheating temperature and atmosphere were investigated. The most important variable affecting the synthesis of $Al_2O_3-SiC$ was the molar ratio of carbon. Unreactants remained in the product among all conditions without compaction. The optimum condition in this reaction was $SiO_2$: Al: C=3: 5: 5.5, 80MPa compaction pressure under Preheating of $400^{\circ}C$ with Ar atmosphere. However there remains cabon in the optimum condition. The effect of $TiO_2$ as additive was investigated in the preparations of $Al_2O_3-SiC$. As a result of $TiO_2$ addition, $Al_2O_3-SiC$-TiC composite powder was prepared. The $Al_2O_3$ powder showed an angular type with 8 to $15{\mu}m$, and the particle size of SiC powder were 5~$10{\mu}m$ and TiC powder were 2 to $5{\mu}m$.

  • We have investigated the crystal structure and electrical properties of Pt/SBT/$CeO_2$/Si(MFIS) and Pt/SBT/Si(MFS) structures for the gate oxide of ferroelectric memory. XRD spectra and SEM showed that the SBT film of SBT/$CeO_2$/Si structure had larger grain than that of SBT/Si structure. Furthermore HRTEM showed that SBT/$CeO_2$/Si had 5 nm thick $SiO_2$layer and very smooth interface but SBT/Si had 6nm thick $SiO_2$layer and 7nm thick amorphous intermediate interface. Therefore, $CeO_2$film between SBT film and Si substrate is confirmed as a good candidate for a diffusion barrier. The remanent polarization decreased and coercive voltage increased in Pt/SBT/$CeO_2/Pt/SiO_2$/Si structure. This effect may increase memory window of MFIS structure directly related to the coercive voltage. From the capacitance-voltage characteristics, the memory of Pt/SBT(140 nm)/$CeO_2$(25 nm)/Si structure were in the range of 1~2 V at the applied voltage of 4~6 V. The memory window increased with the thickness of SBT film. These results may be due to voltage applied at SBT films. The leakage currents of Pt/SBT/$CeO_2$/Si and Pt/SBT/Si were $ 10^8A/\textrm{cm}^2$ and $ 10^6 A/\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively.

  • Purpose: To design and fabricate the small sputter coating system for the Ophthalmic lens. Methods: The design of sputter target was done using macleod program for AR coating and mirror coating of Ophthalmic lens with Si target and then the sputter system was fabricated. Results: The optimum condition of AR coating with Si target was [air|$SiO_2$(81.3)|$Si_3N_4$ (102)|$SiO_2$(19.21)|$Si_3N_4$(15.95)|$SiO_2$(102)|glass], for blue color mirror coating [air|$SiO_2$(56.61)|$Si_3N_4$(135.86)|$SiO_2$(67.64)|$Si_3N_4$(55.4)|$SiO_2$(53.53)|$Si_3N_4$(51.28)|glass], for green color coating [air|$SiO_2$(66.2)|$Si_3N_4$(22.76)|$SiO_2$(56.58)|$Si_3N_4$(140.35)|$SiO_2$(152.35)|$Si_3N_4$(70.16)|$SiO_2$(121.87)|glass], for gold color [air|$SiO_2$(83.59)|$Si_3N_4$(144.86)|$SiO_2$(11.82)|$Si_3N_4$(129.93)|$SiO_2$(90.01)|$Si_3N_4$(88.37)|glass]. Conclusions: In the fabrication of sputtering coating apparatus, Dual cathode with same Ti target were coated at the same time on both sides of Ophthalmic lens to lessen the time of coating on Ophthalmic Lens and save the cost of the lens. The distance of target-substrate of cathode was variable from 12.5 cm to 20 cm. Turbo pump was used to take the whole coating process about 15 min. instead of diffusion pump. The lens holder was made to coat 2 pairs lens every coating and was rotated to get the uniformity of thin film.

  • 실리콘 질화막(SiNx : H)는 결정질 실리콘 태양전지 제작 공정에서 ARC (Anti Reflection Coating)과 표면 패시베이션의 역할로써 많이 사용되었지만, layer 자체의 quality가 좋지 않기 때문에 최근에는 SiNx/SiO2 이중 layer로 passivation layer를 형성하고 있다. SiO2 layer는 Si substrate를 소스로 하여 성장시키기 때문에 막의 질이 우수하기는 하지만, 막 성장을 위해서 Furnace를 이용해야 하기 때문에, 공정 시간과 공정 비용을 증가시키는 단점이 있다. 본 연구에서는 SiO2 layer를 Furnace가 아닌, 질산(HNO3)을 이용하여SiNx/Thin SiO2 passivation layer 제작하였다. 실험에서는 SiO2 성장을 위해서 질산 용액에 p-type wafer를 dipping하여 시간대 별, SiO2 막의 두께를 관찰하였고, passivation의 효과를 확인하기 위해 lifetime을 측정하였다. 그 결과 SiNx/SiO2 이중 passivation layer는 SiNx 단일 막으로 passivation을 하였을 때보다, lifetime이 10 us 상승했고, 셀 제작시 효율은 약 1.1%, Fill Factor는 약 4% 정도 증가한 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Y$_2$O$_3$films were grown on SiO$_2$-covered Si(111), and hydrogen-terminated Si(111), and hydrogen-terminated Si(111) substrates at 50$0^{\circ}C$ by ultrahigh vacuum ionized cluster beam deposition (UHV-ICB). The microstructures and growth behavior of these films have been investigated by transmission electron diffraction (TED) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HREM). The TED results show that the $Y_2$O$_3$grown on the SiO$_2$-Si has the epitaxial relationship of (11-1)Y$_2$O$_3$∥(111)Si and [-110]Y$_2$O$_3$∥[-110]Si. The film on the H-Si substrate contains YS\ulcorner and amorphous YSi\ulcornerO\ulcorner layers at the interface, having the orientation relationship each other. For the YSi\ulcorner and the Si substrate, the relationship is (0001)YSi\ulcorner∥(111)Si and [1-210]YSi\ulcorner∥∥[-110]Si. For the $Y_2$O$_3$and the YSi\ulcorner ; the relationship is as follows: (11-1)Y$_2$O$_3$∥(0001)YSi\ulcorner and [-110]Y$_2$O$_3$∥[1-210]YSi\ulcorner(111)Y$_2$O$_3$∥(0001)YSi\ulcorner and [-110]Y$_2$O$_3$∥[1-210]YSi\ulcorner. Explanation is given to describe the formation mechanisms of the interfacial phases of SiO\ulcorner, YSi\ulcornerO\ulcorner and YSi\ulcorner. It is shown that the crystallinity of the $Y_2$O$_3$film on the SiO$_2$-Si(111) is better than that of $Y_2$O$_3$on H-Si(111).

  • In this study, we investigate the potential use of $TiO_2@SiO_2$ and $ZnO@SiO_2$ core/shell nanoparticles (NPs) as effective UV shielding agent. In the typical synthesis, $SiO_2$ was coated over different types of $TiO_2$ (anatase and rutile) and ZnO by sol-gel method. The synthesized $TiO_2@SiO_2$ and $ZnO@SiO_2$ NPs were characterized by UV-Vis, XRD, SEM and TEM. The UV-vis absorbance and transmittance spectra of core@shell NPs showed an efficient blocking effect in the UV region and more than 90% transmittance in the visible region. XRD and SAED studies confirmed the formation of amorphous $SiO_2$ coated over the $TiO_2$ and ZnO NPs. The FESEM and TEM images shows that coating of $SiO_2$ over the surface of anatase, rutile $TiO_2$ and ZnO NPs resulted in the increase in particle size by ~30 nm. In order to study the UV light shielding capability of the samples, photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye on $TiO_2@SiO_2$ and $ZnO@SiO_2$ NPs was performed. Photocatalytic activity for both types of $TiO_2$ NPs was partially suppressed. In comparison, the photocatalytic activity of ZnO almost vanished after the $SiO_2$ coating.

  • $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite thin film was deposited on the glass substrates using a dip coating technique. The morphology, surface composition, surface hydroxyl groups, photocatalytic activity and hydrophilic properties of the thin film were investigated by AFM, XPS, methyl orange decoloring rate and water contact angle measurements. The hydroxyl content for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ nanocomposite films was calculated to be 11.6, 17.1 and 20.7%, respectively. $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ film turned superhydrophilic after 180-min irradiation with respect to pure $TiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2$ thin films. The photocatalytic decomposition of methyl orange for $TiO_2$, $TiO_2-SiO_2$ and $TiO_2-SiO_2-In_2O_3$ thin films was measured as 38.19, 58.71 and 68.02%, respectively. The results indicated that $SiO_2$ and $In_2O_3$ had a significant effect on the hydrophilic, photocatalytic and self-cleaning properties of $TiO_2$ thin film.

  • 수직형 FHD증착법을 사용하여 SiO$_{2}$, SiO$_{2}$-P$_{2}$O$_{5}$, SiO$_{2}$P$_{2}$O$_{5}$-B$_{2}$O$_{3}$-GeO$_{2}$계 실리카 유리미립자를 형성하였으며, SEM, ICP-AES, XRD, TGA-DSC을 사용하여 그 특성을 분석하였다. XRD측정을 통해, 미립자 형성시 사용된 화염온도(130$0^{\circ}C$-150$0^{\circ}C$)와 기판온도(-20$0^{\circ}C$)가 SiO$_{2}$-P$_{2}$O$_{5}$계 미립자를 비정질상태로 형성하였으며, SiO$_{2}$P$_{2}$O$_{5}$-B$_{2}$O$_{3}$와 SiO$_{2}$P$_{2}$O$_{5}$-B$_{2}$O$_{3}$-GeO$_{2}$계 미립자에서는 B$_{2}$O$_{3}$, BPO$_{4}$, GeO$_{2}$의 결정성피크들을 관찰하였다. TGA-DSC 열분석을 통해, SiO$_{2}$와 SiO$_{2}$-P$_{2}$O$_{5}$는 온도변화에 따른 질량변화가 없었으며, SiO$_{2}$P$_{2}$O$_{5}$-B$_{2}$O$_{3}$-GeO$_{2}$계의 경우 질량감소를 동반한 유리전이에 따른 분자이완현상 및 결정화나 회복반응을 나타내고 있다. 질량감소는 미립자가 결정상태일때 가속되는 경향을 나타냈으며, DSC열분석을 통해 SiO$_{2}$, SiO$_{2}$-P$_{2}$O$_{5}$, SiO$_{2}$P$_{2}$O$_{5}$-B$_{2}$O$_{3}$-GeO$_{2}$계 유리미립자들의 고밀화가 시작되는 온도를 각각 1224$^{\circ}C$, 1151$^{\circ}C$, 953$^{\circ}C$, 113$0^{\circ}C$에서 관찰하였다.
