In order to prevent water vapor and oxygen permeation in the organic light emitting diodes (OLED), Al₂O₃ thin-film encapsulation (TFE) technology were investigated. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) method was used for making the Al₂O₃ TFE layer because it has superior barrier performance with advantages of excellent uniformity over large scales at relatively low deposition temperatures. In this study, the thickness of the Al₂O₃ layer was varied by controlling the numbers of the unit pulse cycle including Tri Methyl Aluminum(Al(CH₃)₃) injection, Ar purge, and H₂O injection. In this case, several process parameters such as injection pulse times, Ar flow rate, precursor temperature, and substrate temperatures were fixed for analysis of the effect only on the thickness of the Al₂O₃ layer. As results, at least the thickness of 39 nm was required in order to obtain the minimum WVTR of 9.04 mg/m²day per one Al₂O₃ layer and a good transmittance of 90.94 % at 550 nm wavelength.

We have proposed and fabricated a new poly-Si TFT employing air-cavities at the edges of gate oxide in order to reduce the vertical electric field induced near the drain due to low dielectric constant of air. Air-cavity has been successfully fabricated by employing the wet etching of gate oxide and APCVD (Atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition) oxide deposition. Our experimental results show that the leakage current of the proposed TFT is considerably reduced by the factor of 10 and threshold voltage shift under high gate bias is also reduced because the carrier injection into gate insulator over the drain depletion region is suppressed.

Suitable replacement materials for ultrathin SiO2 in deeply scaled MOSFETs such as lattice polarizable films, which have much higherpermittivities than SiO2, have bandgaps of only 3.0 to 4.0 eV. Due to these small bandgaps, the reliability of these films as a gate insulator is a serious concern. Ramped voltage, time dependent dielectric breakdown, and hot carrier effect measurements were done on 190 layers of TiO2 which were deposited through the metal-organic chemical vapor deposition of titanium tetrakis-isopropoxide (TTIP). Measurements of the high and low frequency capacitance indicate that virtually no interface state are created during constant current injection stress. The increase in leakage upon electrical stress suggests that uncharged, near-interface states may be created in the TiO2 film near the SiO2 interfacial layer that allow a tunneling current component at low bias.

The surface of ITO in OLEDs was treated with $HfO_x$ deposition process using an atomic layer chemical vapor deposition system. The treatment at room temperature for 5 cycles exhibited significantly improved electroluminescent characteristics compared to the OLEDs without any treatment, which is believed to be caused by the increased holes injection efficiency.

The spherical nonagglomerated and uniform nanometer-size SiO$_2$particles are synthesized by the injection of TEOS vapor, irons and reaction gas in a furnace. Ions are generated by corona discharge and these ions charge SiO$_2$particles. As a result, spherical, nonagglomerated and ultrafine particles are generated in various conditions. Their morphology, charging portion and size distribution are examined by using TEM, ESP and SMPS. As the applied voltage of electrode changes from 0 to 5.0 kV, it is observed that the melon diameter of SiO$_2$particle decreases from 94 nm to 42 nm.

We prepared semi-insulating CdTe for radiation detectors by isothermal annealing of single crystals grown by Bridgeman technique in a sealed quartz container filled with Sn vapor. The resistivity of CdTe:Sn samples thus obtained was of order of $10^{10}Ohm{\cdot}cm$ at room temperature with electrons lifetime of $2{\times}10^{-8}$ s, which is appropriate for the applications desired. Analysis of electric transport characteristics depending on temperature, sample thickness and voltage applied revealed the presence of traps with concentration of about $(4-5){\times}10^{12}cm^{-3}$ with the corresponding energy level at 0.8 - 0.9 eV counted from the bottom of conduction band. The conductivity was determined by electron injection from electrodes in space charge limited current mode.

Almost accidents related with gas have started with the leakage of LPG(Liquefied Petroleum Gas) in the open air. But experimental data of LPG leak jet are difficult to find because the safety of experiment is hard to secure and its phenomenon is not steady but transitional. This study is focused on the phenomena of injection jet of liquid butane to the open air. Simple experiment shows that only liquid butane jet in the open air is possible due to the slow vaporization because of low temperature difference between the liquid and air and low vapor pressure of liquid butane. Comparing with the water, 25~40% more liquid butane flow through the tube under the same pressure difference driving.

The need for more fuel-efficient and lower-emission vehicles has driven the technical development of alternative fuels such as Liquefied Petroleum Gas(LPG) which is able to meet the limits of better emission levels without many modifications to current engine design. LPG has a high vapor pressure and lower viscosity and surface tension than diesel and gasoline fuels. These different fuel characteristics make it difficult to apply it for the conventional gasoline or diesel fuel pump directly. In this study, experiments are performed to get performance and efficiency of the fuel pump at different condition as temperature, rotating speeds, composition of fuel. The characteristics of fuel pump is affected by cavitation due to the variation of temperature and composition.

LED lamp was designed by the serial-parallel integration of LED chips in metal-interconnection. The 7 $4.5{\times}4.5\;in^{2}$ masks were designed with the contact type of chrome-no mirror?dark. The white epitaxial thin film was grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The active layers were consisted with the serial order of multi-quantum wells for blue, green and red lights. The fabricated LED chip showed the electroluminescence peaked at 450, 560 and 600 nm. For the current injection of 20 mA, the operating voltage was measured to 4.25 V and the optical emission power was obtained to 0.7 $\mu$W.

For the purpose of helping development of a GDI(Gasoline Direct Injection) engine, the in-cylinder phenomena, such as the spray behaviors and fuel distributions, unburned fuel, and flame characteristics were investigated in a single cylinder GDI engine. The GDI engine was equipped with a swirl type electronic injector and SCV(Swirl Control Valve). PLIF(Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence) system with KrF Excimer laser was used for the measurements of the fuel distributions. The effects of the injector specifications, such as the spray cone angle and the offset angle on the fuel distributions and combustion characteristics were investigated. As a result, it was found that the injected fuel spray collided with the bottom of the bowl and moved upward along the exhaust side wall of the piston bowl. This fuel vapor played a important role in the instance of spark ignition. The injector specifications has a great influence on the flame characteristics.
