Mesoporous titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) thin films were prepared using poly(vinyl chloride)-graft-poly(N-vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVC-g-PVP) as a templating agent via sol-gel process. Grafting of PVC chains from PVC backbone was done by atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) technique. The successful grafting of PVP to synthesize PVC-g-PVP was checked by fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The carbonyl group interaction of PVC-g-PVP graft copolymer with $TiO_2$ was confirmed by FT-IR. The porous morphologies of the $TiO_2$ films genereated after calcination at $450^{\circ}C$ was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mesoporous $TiO_2$ films with 580 nm in thickness were used as a photoelectrode for solid state dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) and showed an energy conversion efficiency of 1.05% at 100 $mW/cm^2$.

We have demonstrated the formation of highly nanoporous films composed of two different BCMs through layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly on substrates. The films thus prepared showed tunable optical properties, with strong antireflective properties with light transmission above 99%. Considering the wide application areas of both LbL multilayers and block copolymer thin films, the approaches introduced in present study are likely to open up new possibilities for devices with multifunctional properties.

ZnO is one of the most attractive transparent conductive oxide (TCO) films because of low toxicity, a wide band gap material and relatively low cost. However, the electrical conductivity of un-doped ZnO is too high to use it as TCO films in practical application. To improve electrical properties of undoped ZnO, transition metal (TM) doped ZnO films such as Al doped ZnO or Ti doped ZnO have been extensively studied. Here, we prepared Ti doped ZnO thin films by atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the application of TCO films. ALD was used to prepare Ti-doped ZnO thin films due to its inherent merits such as large area uniformity, precise composition control in multicomponent thin films, and digital thickness controllability. Also, we demonstrated that ALD method can be utilized for fabricating highly ordered freestanding nanostructures of Ti-doped ZnO thin films by combining with BCP templates, which can potentially used in the photovoltaic applications.

We report on the photoelectrochemical properties of partially reduced mesoporous titania thin films. The fabrication is achieved by synthesizing mesoporous titania thin films through the self-assembly of a titania precursor and a block copolymer, followed by aging and calcination, and heat-treatment under a $H_2$ (1 torr) environment. Depending on the temperature used for the reaction with $H_2$, the degree of the reduction (generation of oxygen vacancies) of the titania is controlled. The oxygen vacancies induce visible light absorption, and decrease of resistance while the mesoporosity is practically unaltered. The photoelectrochemical activity data on these films, by measuring their photocurrent-potential behavior in 1 M NaOH electrolyte under AM 1.5G 100 mW $cm^{-2}$ illumination, show that the three effects of the oxygen vacancies contribute to the enhancement of the photoelectrochemical properties of the mesoporous titania thin films. The results show that these oxygen deficient $TiO_2$ mesoporous thin films hold great promise for a solar hydrogen generation. Suggestions for the materials design for improved photoelectrochemical properties are made.

In this study, ultra thin films of ferroelectric vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (VF2-TrFE) copolymer were fabricated on degenerated Si (n+, $0.002\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) using by spin coating method. A 1~5 wt% diluted solution of purified vinylidene fluoride-trifluoroethylene (VF2:TrFE=70:30) in a dimethylformamide (DMF) solvent were prepared and deposited on silicon wafers at a spin rate of 2000~5000rpm for 30 seconds. After annealing in a vacuum ambient at $200^{\circ}C$ for 60 min, upper gold electrodes were deposited by vacuum evaporation for electrical measurement. X-ray diffraction results showed that the VF2-TrFE films on Si substrates had $\beta$-phase of copolymer structures. The capacitance on $n^+$-Si(100) wafer showed hysteresis behavior like a butterfly shape and this result indicates clearly that the dielectric films have ferroelectric properties. The typical measured remnant polarization (2Pr) and coercive filed (EC) values measured using a computer controlled a RT-66A standardized ferroelectric test system (Radiant Technologies) were about $0.54\;C/cm^2$ and 172 kV/cm, respectively, in an applied electric field of ${\pm}0.75\;MV/cm$.

Organic/organic and organic/inorganic multilayer films composed of organic polyelectrolytes (PE) and inorganic nanoparticles/platelets were prepared from the layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition using both spinning and dipping. The difference in both LbL methods is quantitatively compared in terms of internal layer ordering and physical properties of the multilayered films. Additionally, we suggest that the patterned multilayer films can be easily prepared by the combination of the spin SA and the lift-off method. Freestanding films were also prepared with the LbL deposition on low energy substrates, which allows the detailed analysis of composition within the films. Other LbL thin films prepared with block copolymer micelles will be discussed.

In this study, HEMA-based hydrophilic copolymers were synthesized and dielectric constant (K) of the polymer thin films were investigated by change hydroxyl group (-OH) ratio in the polymer chain. The different hydroxyl group ratios were characterized by FT-IR and its thin films were obtained by spin coating. As a result, due to the moisture absorption of the hydrophilic thin film, the dielectric constant has been increased as was expected. The highest dielectric constant (K=4.19, @1MHz) was observed at 40% hydroxyl group ratio among the several polymers.

Temperature dependence of the ferroelectric properties of poly(vinylidefluoride-trifluoroethylene) copolymer thin films are studied with various insulators such as $SrTa_2O_6$ and $La_2O_3$. Thin films of poly(vinylidene fluoridetrifluoroethylene) 75/25 copolymer were prepared by chemical solution deposition on p-Si substrate. Capacitance-voltage (C-V) and current density (J-V) behavior of the Au/P(VDF-TrFE)/Insulator/p-Si structures were studied at ($150-200\;^{\circ}C$) and dielectric constant of the each insulators were measured to be about 15 at $850\;^{\circ}C$ for 10 minutes. Memory window width at 5 V bias the MFIS(metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor) structure with as deposited films was about 0.5 V at high temperature ($200\;^{\circ}C$). And the memory window width increased as voltage increased from 1 V to 5 V.

리빙 프리 라디칼 중합법은 ATRP, NMP, RAFT 등의 방법이 있으며, 지난 수 십년간 매우 빠르게 발전해 왔다. 그 중에서 RAFT 중합법은 다른 방법들에 비해 최근에 학문적으로 크게 주목 받고 있다. RAFT 중합법은 다른 리빙 프리 라디칼 중합법에 합성할 수 있는 단량체의 종류나 합성의 제한이 비교적 작아서, 다양한 기능성 고분자를 쉽게 중합할 수 있으며, 합성한 고분자의 분자량 분포 또한 좁게 만들 수 있는 장점이 있다. 따라서 RAFT 중합법을 통해 다양한 형태의 블록 공중합체, 댄드리머 등을 합성하는데 이용되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 위와 같은 RAFT 중합법을 이용해, 친수성 블록을 갖는 새로운 블록 공중합체를 합성한다. Poly(ethylene-b-styrene)와 poly(ethylene-b-metharylate-bstyrene) 같은 블록 공중합체 박막을 이용해 용매 증발법에 의한 높은 수준의 정렬도를 갖는 연구가 진행, 보고되었다. 그리고 위의 2가지 연구에서 습도가 정렬도에 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 보고되고 있다. 하지만 위의 연구에서 친수성 블록에 의한 영향을 명확하게 규명하지 못했다. 따라서 이 논문에서는 다른 친수성 블록을 갖는 poly(N,Ndimethylacrylamide-b-styrene)를 RAFT 중합법에 의해 합성하고, 이를 이용해 박막 내에서 용매 증발법 중의 습도에 의한 영향을 일반화하고자 한다.
