Graphene, two dimensional single layer of carbon atoms, has tremendous attention due to its superior property such as high electron mobility, high thermal conductivity and optical transparency. Especially, chemical vapor deposition (CVD) grown graphene has been used as a promising material for high quality and large-scale graphene film. Unfortunately, although CVD-grown graphene has strong advantages, application of the CVD-grown graphene is limited due to ineffective transfer process that delivers the graphene onto a desired substrate by using polymer support layer such as PMMA(polymethyl methacrylate). The transferred CVD-grown graphene has serious drawback due to remaining polymeric residues generated during transfer process, which induces the poor physical and electrical characteristics by a p-doping effect and impurity scattering. To solve such issue incurred during polymer transfer process of CVD-grown graphene, various approaches including thermal annealing, chemical cleaning, mechanical cleaning have been tried but were not successful in getting rid of polymeric residues. On the other hand, lithographical patterning of graphene is an essential step in any form of microelectronic processing and most of conventional lithographic techniques employ photoresist for the definition of graphene patterns on substrates. But, application of photoresist is undesirable because of the presence of residual polymers that contaminate the graphene surface consistent with the effects generated during transfer process. Therefore, in order to fully utilize the excellent properties of CVD-grown graphene, new approach of transfer and patterning techniques which can avoid polymeric residue problem needs to be developed. In this work, we carried out transfer and patterning process simultaneously with no polymeric residue by using a metal etch mask. The patterned thin gold layer was deposited on CVD-grown graphene instead of photoresists in order to make much cleaner and smoother surface and then transferred onto a desired substrate with PMMA, which does not directly contact with graphene surface. We compare the surface properties and patterning morphology of graphene by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM) and Raman spectroscopy. Comparison with the effect of residual polymer and metal on performance of graphene FET will be discussed.

전기수력학 (Electrohydrodynamic, EHD) 프린팅 기술은 전기장을 이용하여 일반 프린팅 기술보다 더 작은 크기의 액적을 분사하고 패터닝할 수 있는 장점을 갖고 있다. EHD 프린팅은 일반적으로 인쇄 노즐이나 기판을 X-Y 방향으로 움직여 패턴을 제작하는 방식으로 사용되어 왔으나 본 연구에서는 다중전극 어레이 (Multielectrode array, MEA)를 이용하여 원하는 기판위에 2차원의 패터닝이 가능함을 연구하였다. 특히, 약물전달장치 등의 바이오메디칼 디바이스로의 응용이 가능한 생분해성 고분자와 염료를 혼합한 잉크의 EHD 프린팅을 시도하였으며 노즐이나 기판의 움직임 없이 안정적으로 분사할 수 있는 2차원 범위에 대한 연구를 통해 최소 약 $6{\mu}m$ 크기를 갖는 패턴을 노즐 위치로부터 수평방향으로 약 1 mm 범위까지 안정적 패터닝이 가능함을 확인하였다. 또한, MEA 전극 간의 거리에 의한 패턴 조밀도의 한계를 극복하기 위해 MEA와 인쇄가 이루어지는 기판과의 상대적 이동을 통해 더 조밀한 패터닝이 가능함을 보여주었다.

본 연구에서는 기존 실리콘 반도체 기술 기반의 포토 및 이빔 리소그래피 공정을 통하여 유기 반도체 소자를 패터닝하였다. P3HT나 PEDOT 등의 유기 반도체는 용매에 녹기 때문에 MIMIC (micro-molding in capillaries)이나 inkjet printing 기술을 이용하여 마이크로미터 크기의 소자 제작이 가능하였으나, 펜타신은 용매에 녹지 않기 때문에 매우 복잡한 방법으로 마이크로미터 크기의 소자를 제작하여왔다. 그러나, 본 연구에서는 원자층 증착 방법으로 증착한 산화 알루미늄막을 펜타신의 보호층으로 이용하여 기존의 포토 및 이빔 리소그래피 방법으로 마이크로미터크기의 펜타신 소자를 제작하였으며 그 전기 특성을 확인하였다.

We investigated resistance development in $Au/YBa_2Cu_3O_7(YBCO)$ thin film meander lines during high-power faults. The meander lines were fabricated by patterning 300 nm thick YBCO films coated with 200 nm thick gold layers into meander lines. A gold film grown on the back side of the substrate was also patterned into a meander line. The front meander line was connected to a high-power fault-test circuit and the back line to a DC power supply. Resistance of both lines was measured during the fault. They were immersed in liquid nitrogen during the experiment. Behavior of the resistance development prior to quench completion could be understood better by comparing resistance of the front meander lines with that of the back. Quench completion point could be determined clearly. Resistance and temperature at the quench completion point were not affected by applied field strength. The experimental results were analyzed quantitatively with the concept of heat transfer within the meander lines/substrate and to the surrounding liquid nitrogen. In analysis, the fault period was divided into three regions: flux-flow region, region prior to quench completion, and region after quench completion. Resistance was calculated for each region, reflecting the observation for quench completion. The calculated resistance in three regions was joined seamlessly and agreed well with data.

YMnO$_3$ films are excellent gate dielectric materials of ferroelectric random access memories (FRAMs) with MFSFET (metal -ferroelectric-semiconductor field effect transistor) structure because YMnO$_3$ films can be deposited directly on Si substrate and have a relatively low permittivity. Although the patterning of YMnO$_3$ thin films is the requisite for the fabrication of FRAMs, the etch mechanism of YMnO$_3$ thin films has not been reported. In this study, YMnO$_3$thin films were etched with Cl$_2$/Ar gas chemistries in inductively coupled plasma (ICP). The maximum etch rate of YMnO$_3$ film is 285$\AA$/min under Cl$_2$/(Cl$_2$+Ar) of 1.0, RF power of 600 W, dc-bias voltage of -200V, chamber pressure of 15 mTorr and substrate temperature of $25^{\circ}C$. The selectivities of YMnO$_3$ over CeO$_2$ and $Y_2$O$_3$ are 2.85, 1.72, respectively. The selectivities of YMnO$_3$ over PR and Pt are quite low. Chemical reaction in surface of the etched YMnO$_3$ thin films was investigated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) surface of the selected YMnO$_3$ thin films was investigated with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) and secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). The etch profile was also investigated by scaning electron microscopy(SEM)

Flat Panel Displays (FPDs) have made a revolution in the display industry. TFT-LCD (Thin Film Transistor Liquid Crystal Display) has been the main player of FPD for last two decades. As the industry continuously develops the technology for better performance with lower cost is constantly demanded where several post LCD technologies are being developed. One of the prime candidates of post LCD technology is AMOLED (Active Matrix Organic Light Emitting Diode) that is considered to be an ideal FPD due to its extraordinary display performance and potentially low cost display structure. This technology has been accepted to small size display applications, such as cellular phone, PDA and PMP, etc. In this paper it is discussed that how this technology can be extended to large size display applications, such as TV. The technical issues and solutions of TFT backplane and color patterning of OLED materials are discussed and proposed

One of perspective direction of microfabrication is direct laser writing technology that allows to create metal, semiconductive and dielectric micropatterns on substrate surface. In this work, a two step method, the combination of seed forming process, in which metallic Al seed was selectively generated on AlN ceramic substrate by direct writing technique using a pulsed Nd : YAG laser and subsequent electroless Ni plating on the activated Al seed, was presented. The effects of laser parameters such as pulse energy, scanning speed and pulse frequency on shape of Alseed and conductor line after electroless Ni plating were investigated. The nature of the laser activated surface is analyzed from XPS data. The line width of this metallic Al and Ni is analyzed using SEM. As a results, Al seed line with 24㎛ width and 100㎛ isolated line space is obtained. Finally, laser direct writing can be applied in the field between thin and thick film technique in electronic industry.

We have developed a novel method for patterning functional images in thin polymer films. The key materials we utilized for the imaging were dihydroxyanthraquinones protected with acid-labile tert-butoxycarbonyl (t-Boc) blocking groups. Among the tested compounds, 1,4-dihydroxyanthraquinone (quinizarin; 1) underwent the most drastic change in terms of its color and fluorescence upon protection. We prepared the t-Boc-protected quinizarin and polymers bearing the protected quinizarins as pendent groups. To investigate the possibility of a single-component imaging system, we synthesized a styrenic monomer 14 incorporating protected quinizarin and a maleimide derivative 15 bearing a photoacid generating group and subjected them to polymerization. Selective removal of the protecting groups of the quinizarin moieties in the exposed area using photolithographic techniques allowed regeneration of quinizarin and patterned fluorescence images in the polymer films.

We have fabricated inverted staggered pentacene Thin Film Transistor (TFT) with 1-${\mu}m$ channel length by micro contact printing (${\mu}$-CP) method. Patterning of micro-scale source/drain electrodes without etching was successfully achieved using silver nano particle ink, Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) stamp and FC-150 flip chip aligner-bonder. Sheet resistance of the printed Ag nano particle films were effectively reduced by two step annealing at $180^{\circ}C$.
