  • The fluorine doped silicon oxide (SiOF) intermetal dielectric (IMD) films have been of interest due to their lower dielectric constant and compatibility with existing process tools. However instability issues related to bond and increasing dielectric constant to water absorption when the SiOF films was exposured to atmospheric ambient. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to study the effect of post oxygen plasma treatment on the resistance of moisture absorption and reliability of SiOF film. Improvement of moisture absorption resistance of SiOF film is due to the forming of thin SiO₂layer at the SiOF film surface. It is thought that the main effect of the improvement of moisture absorption resistance was densification of the top layer and reduction in the number of Si-F bonds that tend to associate with OH bonds. However, the dielectric constant was increased when plasma treatment time is above 5 min. In this study, therefore, it is thought that the proper plasma treatment time is 3 min when plasma treatment condition is 700 W of microwave power, 3 mTorr of process pressure and 300℃ of substrate temperature.

  • Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) have attracted the attention of scientists and engineers involved in a wide area of research, microscopy, diagnostics and sensing. SPPs are waves that propagate along the surface of a conductor, usually metals. These are essentially light waves that are trapped on the surface because of their interaction with the free electrons of conductor. In this interaction, the free electrons respond collectively by oscillating in resonance with the light wave. The resonant interaction between the surface charge oscillation and the electromagnetic field of the light constitutes the SPPs and gives rise to its unique properties. In this papers, we studied theoretical and experimental extraordinary transmittance (T) and reflectance (R) of 2 dimensional metal hole array (2D-MHA) on GaAs in consideration of the diffraction orders. The 2d-MHAs was fabricated using ultra-violet photolithography, electron-beam evaporation and standard lift-off process with pitches ranging from 1.8 to $3.2{\mu}m$ and diameter of half of pitch, and was deposited 5-nm thick layer of titanium (Ti) as an adhesion layer and 50-nm thick layer of gold (Au) on the semiinsulating GaAs substrate. We employed both the commercial software (CST Microwave Studio: Computer Simulation Technology GmbH, Darmstadt, Germany) based on a finite integration technique (FIT) and a rigorous coupled wave analysis (RCWA) to calculate transmittance and reflectance. The transmittance was measured at a normal incident, and the reflectance was measured at variable incident angle of range between $30^{\circ}{\sim}80^{\circ}$ with a Nicolet Fourier transmission infrared (FTIR) spectrometer with a KBr beam splitter and a MCT detector. For MHAs of pitch (P), the peaks ${\lambda}$ max in the normal incidence transmittance spectra can be indentified approximately from SP dispersion relation, that is frequency-dependent SP wave vector (ksp). Shown in Fig. 1 is the transmission of P=2.2 um sample at normal incidence. We attribute the observation to be a result of FTIR system may be able to collect the transmitted light with higher diffraction order than 0th order. This is confirmed by calculations: for the MHAs, diffraction efficiency in (0, 0) diffracted orders is lower than in the (${\pm}x$, ${\pm}y$) diffracted orders. To further investigate the result, we calculated the angular dependent transmission of P=2.2 um sample (Fig. 2). The incident angle varies from 30o to 70o with a 10o increment. We also found the splitting character on reflectance measurement. The splitting effect is considered a results of SPPs assisted diffraction process by oblique incidence.

  • Olive flounder Paralichthys olivaceus production has increased gradually in recent years, but prices have fallen. Thus, the development of a variety of processed foods incorporating olive flounder would help to increase the income of fishermen. This study was conducted to investigate the best method for olive flounder ball processing. Clean olive flounder were divided into five portions. Olive flounder meat (100 g with added egg white 39 g) was chopped and then mixed with 10 mL fresh cream and ingredients. The dough was molded into the shape of a ball. The olive flounder balls were then processed by two different methods. In the first method, the flounder ball was boiled in water for 3 min then vacuum-packed in polyethylene film and stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. After 7 days, the ball was thawed and heated in a microwave for 2 min (Sample-1). In the second method, the ball was vacuum-packed in polyethylene film without boiling and then stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 7 days before thawing and boiling in water for 3 min (Sample-2). After heating, both types of olive flounder balls were evaluated. Various factors (including the viable bacterial count, chemical composition, pH, hardness, thiobarbituric acid level, salinity, and free amino acid content) were measured, and a sensory evaluation was conducted. Based on the results of the sensory and hardness evaluations, Sample-1 was deemed to be superior to Sample-2.

  • The diamond films which can be applied to SOD (silicon-on-diamond) structure were deposited on Si(100) substrate using CO/H2 CH4/H2 source gases by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition(MPCVD), and SOD structure have been fabricated by poly-silicon film deposited on the diamond/Si(100) structure y low pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD). The phase of the diamond film, surface morpholog, and diamond/Si(100) interface were confirmed by X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microscopy(SEM), atomic force microscopy(AFM), and Raman spectroscopy. The dielectric constant, leakage current and resistivity as a function of temperature in films are investigated by C-V and I-V characteristics and four-point probe method. The high quality diamond films without amorphous carbon and non-diamond elements were formed on a Si(100), which could be obtained by CO/H2 and CH4/H2 concentration ratio of 15.3% and 1.5%, respectively. The (111) plane of diamond films was preferentially grown on the Si(100) substrate. The grain size of the films deposited by CO/H2 are gradually increased from 26nm to 36 nm as deposition times increased. The well developed cubo-octahedron 100 structure nd triangle shape 111 are mixed together and make smooth and even film surface. The surface roughness of the diamond films deposited by under the condition of CO/H2 and CH4/H2 concentration ratio of 15.3% and 1.5% were 1.86nm and 3.7 nm, respectively, and the diamond/Si(100) interface was uniform resistivity of the films deposited by CO/H2 concentration ratio of 15.3% are obtained 5.3, 1$\times$10-9 A/cm, 1 MV/cm2, and 7.2$\times$106 $\Omega$cm, respectively. In the case of the films deposited by CH4/H2 resistivity are 5.8, 1$\times$10-9 A/cm, 1 MV/cm, and 8.5$\times$106 $\Omega$cm, respectively. In this study, it is known that the diamond films deposited by using CO/H2 gas mixture as a carbon source are better thane these of CH4/H2 one.

  • 다이아몬드 합성시 질소 첨가는 Cn 화합물의 합성가능성을 비롯하여 다이아몬드의 질소 도핑, 성장 속도 및 결정성 변화 등 다양한 관점에서 중요한 의미를 가지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다이아몬드의 일반적인 합성조건에서 질소를 첨가하여 합성된 막의 형상 및 상 변화에 대해 고찰하였다. 막은 다이아몬드 전처리시킨 Si 기판위에 microwave plasma CVD 장치를 이용하여 합성하였다. 유입되는 혼합가스(CH4+H2+N2)에서 N2 첨가량을 0-95%까지 변화시켰다. 이때 CH4 농도는 5%로 고정하였고, 합성온도는 90$0^{\circ}C$-115$0^{\circ}C$까지 변화시켰다. 이와 같이 합성된 막의 표면조직 및 성장 두께를 측정하기 위해 주사전자현미경을 이용하였다. 상의 분석은 Raman, XRD 및 TEM 분석을 이용하였으며, 조성분석을 위해 XPS 및 AES를 사용하였다. 질소 첨가량에 따라 합성된 막은 첨가하지 않은 경우에 다이아몬드 결정에서 시작하여 질소첨가에 따라 결정면이 깨지는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 30%, 45%의 경우는 다시 결정면이 나타났다. 다량의 질소가 첨가되었을 때, 다시 결정면을 보이는 다이아몬드가 합성된 것은 매우 흥미로운 결과이다. 한편 질소와 메탄만의 기체하에서는 다시 결정면이 관찰되지 않았다. 이들 상의 구조는 XRD 및 TED 분석을 통해 모두 다이아몬드로 확인되었다. 기체내의 질소의 첨가에 관계없이 고상내에 질소는 확인되지 않았다. 따라서 이방법에 의한 CN 화합물의 합성은 힘든 것으로 보여진다. 이들 실험 결과를 근거로 온도 및 조성에 따른 기체의 열역학적 계산을 통하여 합성거동과의 연관성을 검토하였다. anode는 매우 높은 충전용량을 갖는데 첫 번째 방전시에 Li2O를 생성하여 비가역적 반응을 나타내고 계속되는 충방전 동안 Li-Sn 합금이 생성되어 2차전지의 가역적 반응을 가능하게 한다.

  • $MgTiO_3$thin films have been grown on various substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to investigate the application for microwave dielectrics and optical devices. Epitaxial $MgTiO_3$thin films were obtained on sapphire (c-plane$A1_2O_3$$MgTiO_3$thin films deposited on $SiO_2/Si$ and platinized silicon ($Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$) substrates were highly oriented. $MgTiO_3$thin films grown on sapphire were transparent in the visible and had a sharp absorption edge about 290 nm. These $MgTiO_3$thin films had extremely fine feature of surface morphology, i.e., rms roughness of 0.87 nm, which was examined by AFM. We have investigated the dielectric properties of the $MgTiO_3$thin films in $MIM(Pt/MgTiO_3/Pt)$ capacitors. Dielectric constant and loss of $MgTiO_3$thin films deposited by PLD were about 24 and 1.5% at 1 MHz, respectively. These $MgTiO_3$thin films also exhibited little dielectric dispersion.

  • Some applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as field emitters, such as x-ray tubes and microwave amplifiers, require high current emission from a small emitter area. To emit the high current density, CNT emitters should be optimally fabricated in terms of material properties and morphological aspects including high crystallinity, aspect ratio, distribution density, height uniformity, adhesion on a substrate, low outgassing rate during electron emission in vacuum, etc. In particular, adhesion of emitters on the substrate is one of the most important parameters to be secured for high current field emission from CNTs. So, we attempted a novel approach to improve the adhesion of CNT emitters by incorporating metal oxide layers between CNT emitters. In our previous study, CNT emitters were fabricated on a metal mesh by filtrating the aqueous suspensions containing both highly crystalline thin multiwalled CNTs and thick entangled multiwalled CNTs. However, the adhesion of CNT film was not enough to produce a high emission current for an extended period of time even after adopting the metal mesh as a fixing substrate of the CNT film. While a high current was emitted, some part of the film was shown to delaminate. In order to strengthen the CNT networks, cobalt-nickel oxides were incorporated into the film. After coating the oxide layer, the CNT tips seemed to be more strongly adhered on the CNT bush. Without the oxide layer, the field emission voltage-current curve moved fast to a high voltage side as increasing the number of voltage sweeps. With the cobalt-nickel oxide incorporated, however, the curve does not move after the second voltage sweep. Such improvement of emission properties seemed to be attributed to stronger adhesion of the CNT film which was imparted by the cobalt-nickel oxide layer between CNT networks. Observed after field emission for an extended period of time, the CNT film with the oxide layer showed less damage on the surface caused by high current emission.

  • When using an ionic liquid as co-solvent, the extraction efficiency of anticancer agent paclitaxel from biomass was dramatically improved. However, the residual ionic liquid had a significant negative effect on convenient and feasibility of following concentration and drying steps. In this study, a novel method was developed for the effective drying of the crude extract obtained from biomass extraction with ionic liquid. The residual ionic liquid was easily and conveniently removed by drying alone after pre-treatment and additional washing of a sample with water. The optimal crude extract/water ratio and mixing time for pre-treatment and crude extract/water ratio for additional washing were 1:70 (w/v), 4 min, and 1:100 (w/v), respectively. In the microwave-assisted drying process, the drying time was 9-fold shorter than in the vacuum oven drying process.
