  • Cupric oxide (CuO) is a p-type semiconductor with band gap of ~1.7 eV and reported to be suitable for catalysis, lithium-copper oxide electrochemical cells, and gas sensors applications. The nanoparticles, plates and nanowires of CuO were found sensing to NO2, H2S and CO. In this work, we report about the comparison about hydrogen sensing of nano thin film and nanowires structured CuO deposited on single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). The thin film and nanowires are synthesized by deposition of Cu on different substrate followed by oxidation process. Nano thin films of CuO are deposited on thermally oxidized silicon substrate, whereas nanowires are synthesized by using a porous thin film of SWNTs as substrate. The hydrogen sensing properties of synthesized materials are investigated. The results showed that nanowires cupric oxide deposited on SWNTs showed higher sensitivity to hydrogen than those of nano thin film CuO did.

  • A great amount of effort has been devoted to the constant improvement of such basic performance as dirvability, safety and enviromental protection. As a result, the total combination of various technologies has made it possible to produce safer and more comfortable automobiles. Among these technologies, plasma and thin film techniques are mainly cocerned with sensors, optics, electronics and surface modification. This paper first describes a concept of thin film processing in materials synthesis for sensors based on particle-surface interaction during deposition to provide a long life sensor applicable to sutomobiles. Some examples of parctical application of thin films to sensors are then given. These include(1) a thin films strain gauge for gravity sensors, (2) a giant magneto resistance film for speen sensors, and (3) a Magneto-impedance sensors fordetection of low magnetic field. Further progress of sophisticated thin film technology must be considered in detail to explore advanced thin film materials science and to ensure the field reliability of future sensor devices for automobile.

  • The ZnO thin films were prepared by the FTS (facing target sputtering) system, which enables to provide high density plasma and a high deposition rate at a low working gas pressure. We introduced the AZO thin film in order to improve the crystallographic properties of ZnO thin film because of the AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film has an equal crystal structure to the ZnO thin film. ZnO/AZO thin films were deposited at a different oxygen gas flow ratio, R.T. 2mTorr working pressure and a 0.8A sputtering current. The film thickness and c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO/AZO/glass thin films were measured by ${\alpha}$-step and an x-ray diffraction (XRD) instrument. In the results, we could prepare the ZnO thin film with c-axis preferred orientation of about 6$^{\circ}$ on substrate temperature R.T. at O$_2$ gas flo rate 0.5.

  • A micromachined piezoelectric microspeaker was fabricated with a highly c-axis oriented ZnO thin film on a silicon-nitride film having compressive residual stress. When it was measured 3 mm away from the microspeaker in open field, the largest sound pressure level produced by the fabricated microspeaker was about 91 dB at around 2.9 kHz for the applied voltage of $6\;V_{peak-to-peak}$. The key technologies to these successful results were as follows: (1) the usage of a wrinkled diaphragm caused by the high compressive residual stress of silicon-nitride thin film, (2) the usage of the highly c-axis oriented ZnO thin film.

  • Using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), carbon thin film as electron field emitter were fabricated. These carbon thin film were deposited on Si(100) substrate at several RF power. These film were estimated by raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and field emission. The field electron emission property of these carbon thin film was estimated by a diode technique. As the result, we observed that the field emission properties of these films were promoted by higher RF power. These results are explained as change of surface morphology and structural properties of carbon thin film

  • In this study, liquid crystal (LC) aligning properties for homeotropic alignment on the $SiO_x$ thin film by electron beam evaporation method with electron beam system in accordance with the evaporation angles were investigated. Also, the control of pretilt angles homeotropic aligned LC on $SiO_x$ thin film as the function of the evaporation angles were studied. The uniform vertical LC alignment on the $SiO_x$ thin film surfaces with electron beam evaporation was achieved with all of the thin film angle conditions. It is considerated that the LC alignment on the $SiO_x$ thin film by electron beam evaporation is attributed to elastic interaction between LC molecules and micro-grooves at the $SiO_x$ thin film surface created by evaporation. The values of the pretilt angles according to the evaporation angle were from about $0.7^{\circ}$ to about $3.4^{\circ}$. The highest pretilt angles of about $3.4^{\circ}$ in aligned NLC on the $SiO_x$ thin film surfaces by electron beam evaporation were measured under the condition of $45^{\circ}$. Also, good LC alignment states on the treated $SiO_x$ thin film layer by electron beam evaporation were observed at annealing temperature of $250^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the high pretilt angle and the good thermal stability of LC alignment on the $SiO_x$ thin film by electron beam evaporation can be achieved.

  • 렌즈의 thin film 균일성을 평가하기 위하여 spctrophotometer를 이용한다. 렌즈의 중심 중간, edge 등의 지점에서 파장의존상의 반사율을 측정하여 반사율 spectrum의 두 peak를 선택하여 비교하여, 박막 균일성 여부를 분석한다. 반사율의 두 peak의 파장 영역(${\lambda}_1,{\lambda}_2$)으로부터 thin film의 thickness(t)를 구한다. $$t=\frac{1}{2(n^2-\sin^2{\theta})^{1/2}}{\times}\frac{{\lambda}_1{\lambda}_2}{{\lambda}_2-{\lambda}_1}$$ 렌즈의 중심 중간, edge 등의 지점에서 반사율 pattern이 동일 값이면 coating 렌즈의 박막은 균일성 갖는다. coating 렌즈의 박막 균일성 평가 방법을 단층막 $MgF_2$(n=1.38) coating 렌즈에 적용하였다. 박막의 thickness 차이는 360nm 정도였다. 파장의존성에 대한 광반사율의 측정으로부터 coating 렌즈의 박막 균일성을 쉽게 분석할 수 있다.

  • The past thirty years have seen increasingly rapid advances in the field of Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) transparent thin film.[1] However, a major problem with this ITO thin film application is high cost compared with other transparent thin film materials.[2] So far, in order to overcome this disadvantage, we show a transparent ITO/Ag/i-ZnO multilayer thin film electrode can be the solution. In comparison with using amount of ITO as a transparent conducting material, intrinsic-Zinc-Oxide (i-ZnO) based on ITO/Ag/i-ZnO multilayer thin film showed cost-effective and it has not only highly transparent but also conductive properties. The aim of this research has therefore been to try and establish how ITO/Ag/i-ZnO multilayer thin film would be more effective than ITO thin film. Herein, we report ITO/Ag/i-ZnO multilayer thin film properties by using optical spectroscopic method and measuring sheet resistance. At a certain total thickness of thin film, sheet resistance of ITO/Ag/i-ZnO multilayer was drastically decreased than ITO layer approximately $40{\Omega}/{\square}$ at same visible light transmittance.(minimal point $5.2{\Omega}/{\square}$). Tendency, which shows lowly sheet resistive in a certain transmittance, has been observed, hence, it should be suitable for transparent electrode device.

  • 반도체 특성을 가지는 금속산화물이 포함된 poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT)-$TiO_2$ 하이브리드 전도성 박막을 동시-기상중합법을 이용하여 성공적으로 제조하였다. PEDOT-$TiO_2$ 박막은 PEDOT 박막에 비하여 내스크래치성, 연필경도와 같은 기계적 물성과 전기/광학적 특성을 향상시킬 수 있었다. 동시-기상중합으로 제조된 하이브리드 박막은 FTS 산화제에 의한 졸-젤 반응으로 물리화학적으로 안정한 가교구조의 $TiO_2$ 층이 균일하게 형성되어 PEDOT 박막자체의 전기/광학적 손실을 수반하지 않고 기계적 물성을 높일 수 있었다. 동시-기상중합을 통하여 제조된 하이브리드 박막은 PEDOT 박막에 비하여 평탄한 표면구조를 가졌으며, 이로 인하여 상대적으로 높은 전기전도도를 가진다.
