본 연구에서는 DBD (Dielectric Barrier Discharge)방식을 통해 발생된 대기압 plasma를 이용한 Photoresist (PR) Ashing에 관한 연구를 하였다. 사용된 DBD 반응기는 기존의 blank planar plate 형태의 Power가 인가되는 anode 부분과 Dielectric Barrier 사이 공간을 액상의 도전체로 채워 넣은 형태의 전극이 사용 하였으며, 인가 Power는 40 kHz AC 최대 인가 전압 15 kV를 사용 하였고(본 연구에서 인가 power는 30 KHz,전압 14 KV를 고정시킴) 플라즈마를 발생시 라디칼의 활성화를 유지하기 위해 전극 온도가 $180^{\circ}C$ 정하였다. Feeding 가스는 N2, 반응가스로는 CDA(Clean Dry Air), SF6와 CF4가스를 사용 하였으며 모든 공정은 In-line type으로 시편을 처리 하였다. CDA ratio의 경우에 질소대비 0.2%때 이송속도 30 mm/sec 1회 처리 기존 PR ashing은 최대 $320{\AA}$의 ashing 두께를 얻을 수 있었다. SF6와 CDA가스를 같이 반응하는 경우 ratio는 CDA : SF6 = 0.6% : 0.6%에서 PR ashing rate이 $841{\AA}/pass$의 값을 얻을 수 있었고, CDA가스만 첨가하는 경우보다 약2.6배 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었다. CF4 가스를 사용하는 경우 ratio는 CDA : CF4 = 0.2% : 0.2%에서 PR ashing rate이 $687{\AA}/pass$의 값을 얻을 수 있으며 CDA가스만 첨가하는 경우보다 약 2.1배 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었다. 그리고 PR ashing rate가 가스첨가종류와 비율에 따라서 변화함을 관찰하였고 최적조건을 찾기 위해 연구를 진행하였다. 추후 PR ashing rate가 향상을 하기 위해 가스혼합비율 및 stage 온도등 조건을 조절하여 공정최적조건을 얻기 위해 연구를 진행하였다.

We have deposited NiO films by RF sputtering on $Al_2O_3/SiO_2/Si$ and 100 nm-thick Gd doped $CeO_2$ covered $Al_2O_3/SiO_2/Si$ substrates at various $Ar/O_2$ ratios. The deposited films were reduced to form porous Ni thin fllms in 4% $H_2\;at\;400^{\circ}C$. For the films deposited in pure Ar, the reduction was retarded due to the thickness and the orientation of the NiO films. On the other hand, the films deposited in oxygen mixed ambient were reduced and formed porous Ni films after 20 min of reduction. We also investigated the possibility of using the films for the single chamber operation by studying the electrical property of the films in the fuel/air mixed environment. It is shown that the resistance of the Ni film increases quickly in the mixed gas environment and thus further improvements of Ni-base anodes are required for using them in the single chamber operation.

The solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) is expected to be a candidate for distributed power sources in the next generation, due to its high efficiency and high-temperature waste heat utilization. In this study, the 5-cell SOFC stack was operated with pure hydrogen or reformed gas at anode side and air at cathode side. When stack was operated with diesel and methane ATR reformer, the influence of the $H_2O/C,\;O_2/C$ and GHSV on performance of stacks have been investigated. The result shows that the cell voltage was decreased with the increase of $H_2O/C$ and $O_2/C$ due to the partial pressure of fuel and water, and cell voltage was more sensitive to $O_2/C$ than $H_2O/C$. Next, the dynamic model of SOFC system included with ATR reformer was established and compared with experimental data. Based on dynamic model, the operation strategy to optimize SOFC-Reformer system was suggested and simulated.

A semiconductor cleaning technology has been based upon RCA cleaning which consumes vast amounts of chemicals and ultra pure water. This technology hence gives rise to many environmental issues, and some alternatives such as electrolyzed water are being studied. In this work, intentionally contaminated Si wafers were cleaned using the electrolyzed water. The electrolyzed waters were obtained in anode and cathode with oxidation reduction potentials and pH of -1050mV and 4.8, and -750mV and 10.0, respectively. The electrolyzed water deterioration was correlated with $CO_2$ concentration changes dissolved from air. Overflowing of electrolyzed water during cleaning particles resulted in the same cleanness as could be obtained with RCA clean. The roughness of patterned wafer surfaces after EW clean maintained that of as-received wafers. RCA clean consumed about $9\ell$ chemicals, while electrolyzed water clean did only $400m\ell$ HCl or $600m\ell$ $NH_4$Cl to clean 8" wafers in this study. It was hence concluded that electrolyzed water cleaning technology would be very effective for releasing environment, safety, and health(ESH) issues in the next generation semiconductor manufacturing.ring.

Synthesis of perfluoromethanesulfonyl fluoride(PFMSF) which is a valuable precursor of perfluoro-chemicals such as surface modifier and fine chemicals was studied by electrochemical fluorination (ECF). In order to determine the termination of preelectrolysis, it was carried to monitor the variation of current during preelectrolysis by means of constant cell voltage operation. In a batch cell, chronopotentiometric electrolysis and various chemical analysis such as GC, GC/MS and If were used to understand the potential change of electrode and synthesis and control of hazardous gases products. Termination of preelectrolysis was determinated by measurement the current and/or detection of $F_2$ gas generation. And during the preelectrolysis, an amount of generated $OF_2$ was shown that a lot of moisture was absorbed from air when a cell was filled with anhydrous hydrogen fluoride( AHF ). Above 4V cell voltage, $F_2$ gas was generated and acted on any form of fluorinating agents. In the ECF of MSC (methane sulfonyl chloride) by constant current operation, the potential of anode was intimately relation with generation of $SO_2F_2$. Exchange of Cl to F was dominatly occured in a initial stage. There were various gaseous products including PFMSF as main product and $C_4$ compounds.

A study has been made of the corrosion fatigue of high strength low alloy steel in 3.5% NaCl solution under tension stress for solution temperature being 25.deg. C, 55.deg. C and 85 .deg. C. The main results obtained are as follows; 1) The corrosion fatigue crack growth rate curve could be divided into the First Region, the Second Region and the Third Region. 2) The corrosion fatigue crack growth rates in the First Region and the Second Region were Arrhenius temperature-dependent in this test range. The apparent activation energies for the corrosion fatigue cack growth rate were found to be 2000cal/mol in the First Region and 3700 cal/mol in the Second Region. 3) Hematite (Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$) as the hexahedral crystal and magnetite (Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$) as the octahedral crystal were observed in the corrosion products on the corrosion fatigue fracture surface at 85.deg. C and the anode fusion seem to be generated in the crack tip region at high temperature. 4) The complex environment effect ratio which was defined by the ratio of fatigue crack growth rate in corrosion environment to that in air might be considered not only a criterion estimating the effect of environment quantitatively but also an important parameter in the selection of the design stress for the fail safe design. The complex environment effect was not greater than ten in this test.

Technologies for lithium secondary batteries are now increasingly expanding to simultaneously improve the safety and higher energy and power densities of large-scale battery systems, such as electric vehicles and smart-grid energy storage systems. Next-generation lithium batteries, such as lithium-sulfur (Li-S) and lithium-air (Li-O₂) batteries by adopting solid electrolytes and lithium metal anode, can be a solution for the requirements. In this analysis of battery technology trends, solid electrolytes, including polymer (organic), inorganic (oxides and sulfides), and their hybrid (composite) are focused to describe the electrochemical performance achievable by adopting optimal components and discussing the interfacial behaviors that occurred by the contact of different ingredients for safe and high-energy lithium secondary battery systems. As next-generation rechargeable lithium batteries, Li-S and Li-O₂ battery systems are briefly discussed coupling with the possible use of solid electrolytes. In addition, Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institutes achievements in the field of solid electrolytes for lithium rechargeable batteries are finally introduced.

마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법에 의하여 Nanophase 촉매층을 형성하여 Direct Methanol Fuel Cell(DMFC)에 적용하였다. 일반적인 박막 증착 방법보다 높은 압력 (Ar/He혼합기체)에서 금속 Target과 탄소 Target을 동시에 스퍼터링하여 내피온막 위에 직접 코팅함으로써 기공성 있는 PtRu혹은 Pt및 탄소입자를 포함한 새로운 구조의 촉매층을 형성하였다. 본 방법에 의하여 $1.5mg/cm^2$의 PtRu(Anode) 및 $1mg/cm^2$ Pt(Cathode) 로딩으로 2M Methanol, 1 Bar공기, $80^{\circ}C$조건에서 $45mW/cm^2$의 출력을 얻을 수 있었으며, 이는 기존의 상용방법에 의하여 제조된 전극보다 같은 조건에서 $30\%$의 성능향상을 제시한 것이다. 이는 Nanophase촉매층 구조로 인하여 초미세 분말을 적용하였고, 많은 량의 원자들이 입계에 배열하게 됨으로써 촉매반응을 원활하게 하고,연료의 공급을 효율적으로 해준 것에 기안한 것으로 판단된다. 그러므로, 본 연구의 결과를 응용할 경우 DMFC를 휴대용 전자기기에 적용함에 있어서 성능향상 및 가격경쟁력 확보에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대된다.
