CdS and Se thin films were deposited on slide glass by EBE method respectively and surface morphology, crystal structure, electrical and optical properties were investigated by substrate temperature and annealing. The deposited CdS film was well fabricated with cubic structure at substrate temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. Se film was deposited with noncrystal structure until substrate temperature of $100^{\circ}C$, but Se film was grown with monoclinic structure at substrate temperature of $150^{\circ}C$. And so, after annealing at $150^{\circ}C$ for 15min, noncrystalline Se was proved to be hexagonal structure. Finally, the maximum output of Se/CdS heterojunction at 5000 lux was 4 $mW/cm^{2}$ and maximum spectral sensitivity was represented at 585nm.

We studied an integrated-optic biosensor configuration that operates at a wavelength of 0.63 ㎛ based on the evanescent-wave and two horizontal mode power coupling of Si₃N₄ rib-optical waveguides formed on a Si/SiO₂/Si₃N₄/SiO₂ multilayer thin films. The sensor consists of a single-mode input waveguide, followed by a two-mode section which acts as the sensing region, and a Y-branch output for separating the two output waveguides. The coupling between the two propagating modes in the sensing region produces a periodically repeated optical power exchanges along the propagation. A light power was steered from one output channel to the other due to the change in the cladding layer (bio-material) refractive index, which affected the effective refractive index (phase-shift) of two modes through evanescent-wave. Waveguide analyses based on the rib optical waveguide dimensions were performed using various numerical computational software. Sensitivity values of 12~23 and 65~165 au/RIU, respectively for the width and length of 4 ㎛, and 3841.46 and 26250 ㎛ of the two-mode region corresponding to the refractive index range 1.36~1.43 and 1.398~1.41, respectively, were obtained.

Superconducting fault current(SFCLs) are expected to improve not only reliability but also stability of real power systems. The analysis on the single line-to-ground fault current of the integrated three phase flux-lock type SFCL, which consists of three flux-lock reactor wound on an iron core in each single phase and three YBCO thin films, was investigated in current limiting operating characteristics. We compared additive polarity winding with the subtractive one in the flux lock reactor. Its turns ratio each phase between the primary and the secondary coils is 63:42. When a single line-to-ground fault occurred in any phase, the peak value of line current in the fault phase of the additive polarity winding increased up to 31.44[A] during first-half cycle. On the other hand, the peak value in the subtractive polarity winding increased up to 81.77[A] under the same conditions. This is because the current flow between the primary and the secondary windings becomes to be additive or subtractive in each winding direction. We confirmed that the current limiting behavior in the additive polarity winding was more effective for a single-line-to ground fault.

This work shows the experimental results obtained from ageing at a temperature of 100 C for 48, 70 and 312 h, although the application of AC electrical tension in samples and the measuring of current leakage are presented. The measurements in samples were carried out with samples prepared from the deformulated commercial materials and respectively reformulated into thin films. The obtained results showed the mechanisms of conduction of samples in low and high electric fields. It was also identified an electric tension transition showing that in low fields it prevails the Ohm's law conduction, and in high electric fields it prevails the conduction of space charge limited current (SCLC). These results can support the natural rubber formulation process having as their main objective the reducing of the mechanisms that occur under high conduction current in high electric fields, which leads the material to a dielectric breakdown. Raw Natural rubber in Brazil is extracted from rubber trees (Hevea brasiliensis) in farms in So Paulo State by using some new plantation technology in smaller spaces, with trees placed a few meters from each other. In the Amazon rain forest the rubber trees are found naturally and their spacing may be of hundreds of meters or even kilometers between them. It is necessary to research this raw material from different internationally standard clones to characterize dielectric and electric properties for industrial applications. Moreover, this natural material has a low commercial price when compared to the synthetic ones.

II-VI의 넓은 밴드갭 (3.37 eV)을 가지는 ZnO는 solar cells, transparent conductive electrodes, ultraviolet light emitters, and chemical sensors 등에 응용되고 있다. 특히 고효율 ZnO계 발광 소자 구현을 위하여 MgO (7.7eV), CdO (2.0eV) 등의 고용을 통한 밴드갭을 엔지니어링 하며, 단파장 영역의 광원을 확보하기 위하여 MgO 첨가를 통한 밴드갭 에너지를 증가시키는 방향으로의 연구가 활발하다. 그러나 ZnO의 wurtzite 구조와 MgO의 rocksalt 구조의 상이한 결정구조로 인하여 Mg의 고용한계는 4 at. %, 4.1 eV 알려져 있다. 본 실험에서는 p-type Si (100), c-sapphire (0002)과 GaN 기판 위에 MgO (99.999 %)와 ZnO (99.999 %) 두가지 타겟을 사용하여 RF co-스퍼터링법으로 ZnMgO 박막을 증착 하였다. 이때 ZnO 타겟의 power 밀도는 고정 시키고 MgO 타겟의 power 밀도를 변화 시키며 Mg의 함량을 조절하여 그에 따른 광학적 구조적 특성의 변화를 연구 하였다. 성장된 ZnMgO 박막은 MgO 타겟의 power 밀도가 증가할 때 Mg의 함량이 10 at. %까지 증가 하며, 그에 따른 표면의 거칠기 및 입계 크기가 감소하며, 박막의 성장속도 또한 감소함을 SEM과 AFM을 통하여 알 수 있었다. XRD를 동하여 ZnMgO 박막의 (0002) peak의 위치는 $34.50^{\circ}{\sim}34.7^{\circ}$로 오른쪽으로 이동하며, c-축으로 성장하였음을 알 수 있다. PL과 UV룰 동하여, Mg의 함량이 증가 할수록 박막의 밴드갭 에너지는 3.2 eV에서 4.1 eV 로 증가하였다.

최근에 에피 성장된 ZnO는 UV-LED, 화학적-바이오센서와 투명전도 전극에 많은 관심을 받고 있다. 고 품질의 ZnO는 Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD), Pulsed laser deposition(PLD), molecular beam epitaxy(MBE), 그리고 마그네트론 스퍼터링법에 의해 성장이 이루어지고 있다. 대부분의 ZnO는 사파이어, 싫리콘과 같은 이종 기판 위에 성장되고 있으며, Heteroepitaxy로 성장된 ZnO 박막은 기판과 박막사이의 격자상수, 열팽창계수 차이로 인해 높은 결함 밀도를 보이고 있다. 이러한 문제점은 광전자 소자 응용에 있어 여러 가지 문제점을 야기 시킨다. 이와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 박막과 기판사이에 저온 버퍼층을 사용하거나 같은 물질의 버퍼층을 사용하여 결할 밀도를 감소시키고, 높은 결정성을 가진 ZnO 박막을 성장시킨 결과들이 많이 보고되어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 마그네트론 스퍼터링 법으로 저온 버퍼층 성장 없이 성장온도 만을 달리 하여 고품질의 ZnO 박막을 성장시켰다. ZnO 박막은 c-sapphire 기판위에 ZnO(99.9999%)의 타겟을 사용하여 $600{\sim}800^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 성장시켰고, 스퍼터링 가스로는 아르곤과 산소를 2:1 비율로 혼합하여 15mtorr의 압력에서 성장하였다. 이렇게 성장시킨 ZnO 박막은 Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), High-Resolution X-ray Diffraction (HRXRD), Low-temperature PL, 그리고 Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)로 특성을 분석 하였다. ZnO 박막은 HRXRD (002) 면의 $\omega$-rocking curve운석 결과, $0.083^{\circ}$의 작은 FEHM을 얻었고, (102) 면의 $\varphi$-sacn을 통해 온도가 증가함에 따라 향상된 6-fold을 확인함으로새 에피성장됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한 TEM분석을 통해 $800^{\circ}C$에서 성장된 박막은 $6.7{\times}10^9/cm^2$의 전위밀도를 얻을 수 있었다.

본 연구에서는 RF Magnetron Sputtering 법으로 94:6 wt%의 비율로 Sb가 첨가된 $SnO_2$ 타겟을 사용하여 실온에서 ATO(Antimony doped Tin Oxide) 박막을 증착하고, 열처리가 ATO 박막의 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성에 미치는 효과를 연구하고자 하였다. ATO 박막의 두께는 약 200 nm로 증착하였으며, 실험 조건으로는 Ar 유량을 100 seem, 진공도는 1, 5, 10 mTorr로 변화시켰으며 스퍼터링 파워는 100, 150, 200, 250 W로 조절하였다. 증착되어진 박막은 vacuum 상태에서 300, $600^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 열처리를 수행하였으며 결과적으로 스퍼터링 파워가 증가함에 따라 비저항이 감소하였고, 250 W의 파워와 10 mTorr의 공정압력 조건에서 $600^{\circ}C$로 열처리한 ATO 박막은 $5{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}-cm$의 저항률과 85.3%의 높은 투과도를 가지는 우수한 투명 전도막을 얻을 수 있었다.

현재 투명전극의 재료로 ITO, ZnO, $SnO_2$등의 재료가 주로 이용되며, 낮은 저항률을 장점으로 가지는 ITO 박막이 가장 널리 이용되고 있으나, 가격이 비싸다는 단점을 가지고 있다. 이 밖에도 ITO 박막보다 가격이 저렴한 ZnO박막에 대한 연구가 많이 진행되고 있으나, 고온에서의 열적 불안정성 등의 문제로 상용화되지는 못하고 있다. 그러나 $SnO_2$ 박막은 ITO와 ZnO 박막보다 저항률이 다소 높지만, 우수한 열적, 화학적 안정성과 저렴한 가격으로 ITO 박막을 대체할 투명전도막 재료로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 $SnO_2$박막의 저항률 향상을 위하여 ATO(Antimony doped Tin Oxide) 박막을 RF Magnetron Sputtering 법으로 Coming glass위에 증착하였으며, 박막 증착시 산소 유량의 변화가 ATO 박막의 구조적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 특성에 미치는 효과를 연구하였다. 본 실험에서는 동작압력을 10 mTorr, RF power를 250W로 고정하고 $O_2$ 유량을 부분적으로 변화시키면서 증착되어진 ATO 박막을 분석한 결과 Ar:$O_2$의 비가 90:10일 때 최적의 가스비율로써 우수한 구조적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 특성을 보임을 확인하였다.

To study the encapsulation method for heat dissipation of high brightness organic light emitting diode (OLED), red emitting OLED of ITO (150 nm) / 2-TNATA (50 nm) / NPB (30 nm) / $Alq_3$ : 1 vol.% Rubrene (30 nm) / $Alq_3$ (30 nm) / LiF (0.7 nm) / Al (200 nm) structure was fabricated, which on $Alq_3$ (150 nm) / LiF (150 nm) as buffer layer and Al as protective layer was deposited to protect the damage of OLED, and subsequently it was encapsulated using attaching film and metal sheet. The current density, luminance and power efficiency was improved according to thickness of Al protective layer. The emission spectrum and the Commission International de L'Eclairage (CIE) coordinate did not have any effects on encapsulation process using attaching film and metal sheet The lifetime of encapsulated OLED using attaching film and metal sheet was 307 hours in 1,200 nm Al thickness, which was increased according to thickness of Al protective layer, and was improved 7% compared with 287 hours, lifetime of encapsulated OLED using attaching film and flat glass. As a result, it showed the improved current density, luminance, power efficiency and the long lifetime, because the encapsulation method using attaching film and metal sheet could radiate the heat on OLED effectively.

The efficiency of such work highly depend on the worker's safety, who is protected by tools such as gloves, sleeves, blankets and flexible coverings among other manufactured natural-rubber goods. Use, storage and maintenance of these tools guarantee the quality and durability of the material. However, it might be observed that good tools made of such material are disapproved of when received from manufacturers or when they are removed from the warehouse for replacement. This work shows the experimental results obtained from ageing at a temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ for 48, 70 and 312 h, although the application of AC electrical tension in samples and the measuring of current leakage are presented. The measurements in samples were carried out with samples prepared from the deformulated commercial materials and respectively reformulated into thin films.
