Recently micro-nano structures has widely been reported to improve the performance of waterproof, heat isolation, sound and light absorption in various fields of electric devices such as mobiles, battery, display and solar panels. A lot of micro-sized holes on the surface of thin film provide excellent sound, or heat, or light transmission efficiency more than solid film and simultaneously nano-sized protrusions around micro hole increase the hydrophobicity of the surface of thin film because of lotus leaf effects as generally known previously. In this paper new rapid fabrication process with 355 nm UV laser ablation was proposed to get micro-nano structures on the surface of thin film, which have only been observed at higher laser fluence. Developed thin micro-nano structured film was also investigated the hydrophobic property by measuring the contact angle and demonstrated the possibility to apply to water droplet separation.

양극 산화된 알루미나 (anodized aluminum oxide : AAO)는 균일하고 일정한 크기의 나노기공 패턴을 지니고 있다. AAO를 이온빔 나노 patterning을 위한 이온조사 시 마스크로서 이용하기 위해 AAO 나노 기공을 통과하는 이온빔의 투과율(AAO에 입사한 이온에 대한 투과이온의 양의 비)을 측정하였다. Al bulk foil을 양극 산화하여 두께가 $4{\mu}m$이고 종횡비(두께와 기공의 지름의 비)가 각각 200:1, 100:1 인 AAO를 Goniometer에 부착하여 500 keV의 $O^{2+}$ 이온빔에 대해 나노기공을 정렬시킨 후, 기울임 각에 따른 투과율을 측정한 결과, 종횡비가 200:1, 100:1 일 때 투과율은 각각 약 $10^{-8},\;10^{-4}$로 거의 이온빔이 투과하지 못하였다. 반면에 $SiO_2$ 위에 증착된 Al 박막으로 양극산화하여 종횡비가 5:1인 AAO의 이온빔 투과율은 0.67로 투과율이 현저히 향상되었다. 높은 종횡비를 갖는 AAO의 경우에는 범과 AAO 기공의 정렬이 쉽지 않은데다 알루미나의 비전도성으로 인한 charge-up 현상으로 인해 이온빔이 극히 투과하기 어렵기 때문이다. 실제로 80 keV의 Co 음이온을 종횡비 5:1인 AAO에 조사시킨 후에는 AAO 나노기공과 동일한 크기의 나노 구조체가 형성됨을 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscopy: SEM) 관찰을 통하여 확인하였다.

본 연구에서는 MEMS 소자의 직접화 및 소형화에 필수적인 through-wafer via interconnect의 신뢰성 문제를 연구하였다. 이를 위하여 Au-Sn eutectic 접합 기술을 이용하여 밀봉(hermetic) 접합을 한 웨이퍼 레벨 MEMS 패키지 소자를 개발하였으며, 전기도금법을 이용하여 수직 through-hole via 내부를 구리로 충전함으로써 전기적 연결을 시도하였다. 제작된 MEMS 패키지의 크기는 $1mm{\times}1mm{\times}700{\mu}m$이었다. 제작된 MEMS패키지의 신뢰성 수행 결과 비아 홀(via hole)주변의 크랙 발생으로 패키지의 파손이 발생하였다. 구리 through-via의 기계적 신뢰성에 영향을 줄 수 있는 여러 인자들에 대해서 수치적 해석 및 실험적인 연구를 수행하였다. 분석 결과 via hole의 크랙을 발생시킬 수 있는 파괴 인자로서 열팽창 계수의 차이, 비아 홀의 형상, 구리 확산 현상 등이 있었다. 궁극적으로 구리 확산을 방지하고, 전기도금 공정의 접합력을 향상시킬 수 있는 새로운 공정 방식을 적용함으로써 비아 홀 크랙으로 인한 패키지의 파괴를 개선할 수 있었다.

As the importance of three-dimensiona (3D) nano patterns and structures has recently emerged, interest in the study of 3D structures of block copolymers has increased. However, most existing studies on block copolymer 3D patterns on substrates are limited to simple 3D structures such as a multi-layered forms. In this study, we propose an experimental method for realizing free-standing 3D block copolymer patterns on substrates using an e-beam lithographic template and film transfer method. The block copolymer 3D structure formed in wide hole templates are similar to simple multi-layered structures; however, as the width of the hole template become narrower, more complex block copolymer 3D structures are formed in which the upper and lower layer structures are interconnected. Furthermore, we introduce a method to fabricate novel block copolymer structures in which the 2D planar structures are connected to 3D complex structures. Proposed 3D block copolymer fabrication method provides a framework for generation of unconventional 3D structures of block copolymer, which can be useful for next generation 3D devices.

We suggest and simulate an optical filter that a red wavelength range cannot transmit to protect the psychological stress that originates from the cognition of red color in emergency medical technicians. When a nanohole hexagonal array is fabricated on gold film using Anodic Aluminum Oxide (AAO), the blocked wavelength can be tuned by the hole diameter and film thickness. The characteristic of the transmittance for normal incident white light is simulated with Finite Element Method (FEM) in the MATLAB platform. Although the transmittance of the overall wavelength is reduced by 50% by the gold film, the transmittance of the red wavelength range is decreased by over 87%.

Atom-thick graphene membrane and nano-sized graphene objects (NGOs) hold substantial potential for applications in future molecular-scale integrated electronics, transparent conducting membranes, nanocomposites, etc. To realize this potential, chemical properties of graphene need to be understood and diagnostic methods for various NGOs are also required. To meet these needs, chemical properties of graphene and optical diagnostics of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) have been explored by Raman spectroscopy, AFM and STM scanning probes. The first part of the talk will illustrate the role of underlying silicon dioxide substrates and ambient gases in the ubiquitous hole doping of graphene. An STM study reveals that thermal annealing generates out-of-plane deformation of nanometer-scale wavelength and distortion in $sp^2$ bonding on an atomic scale. Graphene deformed by annealing is found to be chemically active enough to bind molecular oxygen, which leads to a strong hole-doping. The talk will also introduce Raman spectroscopy studies of GNRs which are known to have nonzero electronic bandgap due to confinement effect. GNRs of width ranging from 15 nm to 100 nm have been prepared by e-beam lithographic patterning of mechanically exfoliated graphene followed by oxygen plasma etching. Raman spectra of narrow GNRs can be characterized by upshifted G band and strong disorder-related D band originating from scattering at ribbon edges. Detailed analysis of the G, D, and 2D bands of GNRs proves that Raman spectroscopy is still a reliable tool in characterizing GNRs despite their nanometer width.

This work presents a fabrication procedure to make large-area, size-tunable, periodically different shape metal arrays using nanosphere lithography (NSL) combined with ashing and annealing. A polystyrene (PS, 580 ${\mu}m$) monolayer, which was used as a mask, was obtained with a mixed solution of PS in methanol by multi-step spin coating. The mask morphology was changed by oxygen RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) ashing and temperature processing by microwave heating. The Au or Pt deposition resulted in size tunable nano patterns with different morphologies such as hole and dots. These processes allow outstanding control of the size and morphology of the particles. Various sizes of hole patterns were obtained by reducing the size of the PS sphere through the ashing process, and by increasing the size of the PS sphere through annealing treatment, which resulted in tcontrolling the size of the metallic nanoparticles from 30 nm to 230 nm.

MoO₃ metal oxide nanostructure was formed by hydrothermal synthesis, and a perovskite solar cell with an MoO₃ hole transfer layer was fabricated and evaluated. The characteristics of the MoO₃ thin film were analyzed according to the change of hydrothermal synthesis temperature in the range of 100 ℃ to 200 ℃ and mass ratio of AMT : nitric acid of 1 : 3 ~ 15 wt%. The influence on the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the solar cell was evaluated. Nanorod-shaped MoO₃ thin films were formed in the temperature range of 150 ℃ to 200 ℃, and the chemical bonding and crystal structure of the thin films were analyzed. As the amount of nitric acid added increased, the thickness of the thin film decreased. As the thickness of the hole transfer layer decreased, the photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell improved. The maximum photoelectric conversion efficiency of the perovskite solar cell having an MoO₃ thin film was 4.69 % when the conditions of hydrothermal synthesis were 150 ℃ and mass ratio of AMT : nitric acid of 1 : 12 wt%.
