Perfluorocompounds ($PFC_s$), such as tetrafluoromethane ($CF_4$) and hexafluoroethane ($C_2F_6$), have been widely used as plasma etching and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) gases for semiconductor manufacturing processes. Since these $PFC_s$ are known to cause a greenhouse effect intensively, there has been a growing interest in reducing $PFC_s$ emissions. Among various $CF_4$ decomposing techniques, a dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) is considered as one of a promising candidate because it has been successfully used for generating ozone ($O_3$) and decomposing nitrogen oxide (NO). Firstly, optimal concentration of oxygen for $CF_4$ decomposition was found to figure out how many primary and secondary reactions are associated with DBD process. Secondary, to find effective discharge method for $CF_4$ decomposition, a streamer and a glow mode in DBD are experimentally compared, which includes (i) coaxialcylinder DBD, (ii) DBD reactor packed with glass beads. and (iii) a glow mode operation with a helium gas. The test results showed that optimal concentration of oxygen was ranged 500 ppm~1% for treating 500 ppm of $CF_4$ and helium glow discharge was the most efficient one to decompose $CF_4$.

Statement of problem. In the process of bone formation, titanium (Ti) surface roughness is an important factor modulating osteoblastic function. Purpose. This study was carried out to determine the effect of different Ti surface on biologic responses of a human osteoblast-like cell line (MG63). Materials and methods. MG63 cells were cultured on S (smooth), SLA (sandblasted largegrit & acid etching), HA (hydroxyapatite) Ti. The morphology and attachment of the cells were examined by SEM. The cDNAs prepared from total RNAs of MG63 were hybridized to a human cDNA microarray (1,152 elements). Results. The appearances of the surfaces observed with SEM were different in the three types of dental substrates. The surface of SLA and HA were shown to be rougher than S. MG63 cells cultured on SLA and HA were cell-matrix interaction. In the expression of genes involved in osseointegration, upregulated genes were bone morphogenetic protein, Villin, Integrin, Insulin-like growth factors in different surfaces. Downregulated genes were fibroblast growth factor receptor 4, Bcl 2-related protein, collagen, CD4 in different surfaces. Conclusion. The attachment and expression of key osteogenic regulatory genes were enhanced by surface roughness of the dental materials.

A thermoelectric flow sensor for small quantity of gas flow rate was fabricated using silicon wafer semiconductor process and bulk micromachining technology. Evanohm R alloy heater and chromel-constantan thermocouples were used as a generation heat unit and sensing parts, respectively. The heater and thermocouples are thermally isolated on the $Si_{3}N_{4}/SiO_{2}/Si_{3}N_{4}$ laminated membrane. The characteristics of this sensor were observed in the flow rate range from 0.2 slm to 1.0 slm and the heater power from 0.72 mW to 5.63 mW. The results showed that the sensitivities $(({\partial}({\Delta}V)/{\partial}(\dot{q}));{\;}{\Delta}V$ : voltage difference, $\dot{q}$ : flow rate) were increased in accordance with heater power rise and decreasing of flow rate.

본 논문에서는 폴리머 광도파로 열 격자(arrayed waveguide grating: AWG)를 나노임프린트 방법을 이용하여 제안하고 구현하였다. 빔전파방법을 도입하여 소자를 설계하고 해석하였다. 균일한 접착 및 분리 특성을 갖는 임프린트용 PDMS(polydimethylsiloxane) 스탬프(stamp)를 쿼츠 글래스 물질로 만들어진 마스터 몰드를 이용하여 개발하였다. 이 PDMS 스탬프로 폴리머층을 눌러서 소자 패턴을 형성하고 폴리머를 스핀코팅하여 소자를 완성하였다. 이러한 소자는 식각공정 없이 간단한 스핀코팅과 임프린트 공정만으로 만들어지기 때문에 대량 생산에 적합할 것이다. 제작된 폴리머 AWG 소자의 출력 채널 수는 8개, 채널 간격은 0.8nm, 각 채널의 중심파장은 1543.7nm $\sim$ 1548.3nm 였다. 평균적인 채널 누화와 대역폭은 각각 $\sim$10dB와 0.8nm였다.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the microleakage of root-end filling material filled in blood contaminated root-end cavity and self-etching adhesive placed over blood contaminated resected root apices without root-end preparation. Extracted, human maxillary incisors, canines and mandibular premolar were randomly divided into four groups of 15 teeth each. After canal preparation, resection of the apex and root-end preparation, MTA and IRM were filled in the root-end cavity (A and B group). After canal preparation and resection of the apex, Clearfil SE Bond and Prompt L-Pop were applied over the contaminated root-end surfaces (C and D group). The roots were then subjected to 15cm of water pressure to simulate periapical microleakage stress. Data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA. The results were as follows : 1. All groups showed a tendency of decreasing microleakage in process of time after 2weeks later except IRM group. 2. After 2 weeks and 1 month, MTA group showed less microleakage significantly than other groups(p<0.05). After 2 months, Prompt L-Pop group showed less microleakage significantly than other groups(p<0.05). 3. After 9 months, there were no significant differences among four groups(p>0.05). Thus it is considered that apical sealing using adhesives system without root-end preparation is good method in endodontic surgery.

Pyroelectric $Pb(Zr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7})O_3$ (PZT30/70) thin film IR detectors has been fabricated and characterised. The PZT30/70 thin film was deposited onto $Pt/Ti/Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si$ substrate by the sol-gel process. Four different substrate conditions were studied for their effects on the pyroelectric responses of the IR detectors. The substrate conditions were the combinations of the Si etching and the Pt/Ti patterning. In the Si etched substrate, the $Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ composite layer was used as silicon etch-stop, and was used as the membrane to support the PZT pyroelectric film element as well. The measured pyroelectric current and voltage responses of detectors fabricated on the micro-machined thin $Si_3N_4/SiO_2$ membrane were two orders higher than those of the detectors on the bulk-silicon. For detectors on the membrane substrate, the Pt/Ti patterned detectors showed a 2-times higher pyroelectric response than that of not-patterned detectors. On the other hand, the pyroelectric response of the detectors on the not-etched Si substrate was almost the same, regardless of the Pt/Ti patterning. It was also found that the rise time strongly depended on the substrate thickness: the thicker the substrate was, the longer the rise-time.

Acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) plastic is a polymer material extensively used in electrical and electronic applications. Nickel (Ni) thin film was deposited on ABS by electroless plating, after its surface was treated and modified with atmospheric plasma generated by means of dielectric barrier discharges (DBDs) in air. The method in this study was developed as a pre-treatment for electroless plating using DBDs, and is a dry process featuring fewer processing steps and more environmentally friendliness than the chemical method. After ABS surfaces were modified, surface morphologies were observed using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to check for any physical changes of the surfaces. Cross-sectional SEM images were taken to observe the binding characteristics between metallic films and ABS after metal plating. According to the SEM images, the depths of ABS by plasma are shallow compared to those modified by chemically treatment. The static contact angles were measured with deionized (DI) water droplets on the modified surfaces in order to observe for any changes in chemical activities and wettability. The surfaces modified by plasma showed smaller contact angles, and their modified states lasted longer than those modified by chemical etching. Adhesion strengths were measured using 3M tape (3M 810D standard) and by 90° peel-off tests. The peel-off test revealed the stronger adhesion of the Ni films on the plasma-modified surfaces than on the chemically modified surfaces. Thermal shock test was performed by changing the temperature drastically to see if any detachment of Ni film from ABS would occur due to the differences in thermal expansion coefficients between them. Only for the plasma-treated samples showed no separation of the Ni films from the ABS surfaces in tests. The adhesion strengths of metallic films on the ABS processed by the method developed in this study are better than those of the chemically processed films.

일반적으로 반도체를 제조할 때는 인화성, 독성, 부식성의 유해·위험물질이 다수 사용되며, 특히 화학적 증착(CVD), 식각(Etch) 등의 공정에서는 특수가스를 사용하여 반도체를 제조하고 있다. 특수가스는 압축 또는 액화가스의 상태로 용기에 충전되어 있는데, 특수가스를 반도체 제조공정에 공급하는 설비로서 가스캐비닛(Gas Cylinder Cabinet)이 사용되고 있다. 이러한 가스공급시스템 내에서 실린더 이상 발생 시 배관·계측기 등 공급시스템의 안전 확보를 위해 가스실린더에 설치된 압력방출장치를 통해 가스가 방출하게 되는데, 이 경우 가스캐비닛 내부에 방출되는 가스가 캐비닛 외부로 누출될 위험성이 존재한다. 따라서 가스캐비닛 내부의 유체유동을 분석하여 누출에 따른 위험성을 파악하고 이에 대한 위험도 감소를 위한 대책을 제시하고자 한다.

본 논문에서는 탄소나노튜브 필름을 이용한 투명 압저항체의 제작 및 특성 연구를 수행하였다. 진공필터 방식으로 제작된 다양한 투과도를 가지는 탄소나노튜브 필름은 금층이 증착된 실리콘 기판위에서 사진식각 공정을 통해 패터닝이 된 후, 금층과 실리콘 기판의 약한 접착력으로 인해 실리콘 러버인 poly-dimethysiloxane (PDMS) 로 전사된다. 탄소나노튜브 필름의 압저항 특성을 분석하기 위해, 얇은 PDMS 멤브레인의 처짐에 대한 탄소나노튜브 필름의 저항 변화를 측정하여 10-20 의 개이지 팩터를 얻었으며, 인가 압력에 대한 저항 변화 실험을 수행하였다. 본 실험을 통하여 탄소나노튜브 필름은 폴리머 멤스의 다양한 응용분야에 투명한 압저항체로 사용될 수 있을 것으로 판단한다.
