Silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) in a superlattice for high efficiency tandem solar cells were fabricated by magnetron rf sputtering and their characteristics were investigated. SiC/$Si_{1-x}C_x$ superlattices were deposited by co-sputtering of Si and C targets and annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes in a nitrogen atmosphere. The Si QDs in Si-rich layers were verified by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction. The size of the QDs was observed to be 3-6 nm through high resolution TEM. Some crystal Si and -SiC peaks were clearly observed in the grazing incident X-ray diffractogram. Raman spectroscopy in the annealed sample showed a sharp peak at $516\;cm^{-1}$ which is an indication of Si QDs. Based on the Raman shift the size of the QD was estimated to be 4-6 nm. The volume fraction of Si crystals was calculated to be about 33%. The change of the FT-IR absorption spectrum from a Gaussian shape to a Lorentzian shape also confirmed the phase transition from an amorphous phase before annealing to a crystalline phase after annealing. The optical absorption coefficient also decreased, but the optical band gap increased from 1.5 eV to 2.1 eV after annealing. Therefore, it is expected that the optical energy gap of the QDs can be controlled with growth and annealing conditions.

As a part of micro engine development feasibility estimation was done through fabrication and test of down scaled combustor and MEMS fabricated spark electrode. In an experimental observation of the down scaled combustion phenomena where flame propagation was observed by optical method and pressure change in combustor which gives the information about the reaction generated thermal energy was recorded and analyzed. Optimal combustor scale was derived to be about 2mm considering increased heat loss effect and thermal energy generation capability. Through the fabrication and discharge test of MEMS electrode effects of electrode width and gap was investigated. Electrode was fabricated by thick PR mold and electroplating. From the result discharge voltage characteristic in sub millimeter scale electrode having thickness of $40{\mu}m$ was obtained. From the result base technology for design and fabrication of micro engine was obtained.

본 실험에서는 Ag두께 변화에 따른 투과율과 Energy bandgap의 변화를 알아보기 위해 RF Sputter장비와 Evaporator장비를 사용하여 IGZO, ZnO, AZO OMO 구조로 Low-e 코팅된 Glass를 제작하였다. $3cm{\times}3cm$의 Corning1737 유리기판에 RF Sputtering 방식으로 Oxide layer를 증착 하였고 Evaporator장비로는 Metal layer인 Ag막을 증착하였다. Oxide layer 증착 시 RF Sputter장비의 조건은 $3.0{\times}10^{-6}Torr$이하로 하였으며, 증착압력은 $6.0{\times}10^{-3}Torr$, 증착온도는 실온으로 고정하였다. Metal layer 증착 시 Evaporator장비의 조건은 $5.0{\times}10^{-6}Torr$이하, 전압은 0.3 V, Rotate 2 rpm으로 고정하였다. 실험 변수로는 Ag 두께를 5,7,9,11,13 nm로 변화를 주어 실험을 진행하였다. 투과도 측정 장비를 사용하여 각 샘플을 측정한 결과 IGZO의 경우 가시광영역의 평균 투과율이 80% 이상이며 Ag두께가 5nm일 때부터 자외선 영역의 빛을 차단하여 low-e 특성을 나타내었다. 이는 산화물인 IGZO가 결정질인 AZO, ZnO 보다 낮은 표면거칠기를 가지기 때문이다. Ag 두께에 따른 각 물질의 Optical energy bandgap 분석결과 Ag 두께가 증가할수록 IGZO는 4.65~4.5 eV, AZO는 4.6~4.4 eV, ZnO는 4.55~4.45 eV로 Energy bandgap은 감소하였다. AFM장비를 이용하여 각 샘플의 표면 Roughness 측정 결과 Ag 두께가 증가할수록 표면거칠기도 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

We evaluated the structural, electrical and optical properties of tungsten (W)-doped $Ge_8Sb_2Te_{11}$ thin films. In a previous work, GeSbTe alloys were doped with different materials in an attempt to improve thermal stability. 200 mm thick $Ge_8Sb_2Te_{11}$ and W-doped $Ge_8Sb_2Te_{11}$ films were deposited on p-type Si (100) and glass substrates using a magnetron co-sputtering system at room temperature. The fabricated films were annealed in a furnace in the $0{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ temperature range. The structural properties were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (X'pert PRO, Phillips). The results showed increased crystallization temperature ($T_c$) leading to thermal stability in the amorphous state. The optical properties were analyzed using an UV-Vis-IR spectrophotometer (Shimadzu, U-3501, range : 300~3,000 nm). The results showed an increase in the crystalline material optical energy band gap ($E_{op}$) and an increase in the $E_{op}$ difference (${\Delta}E_{op}$). This is a good effect to reduce memory device noise. The electrical properties were analyzed using a 4-point probe (CNT-series). This showed increased sheet resistance ($R_s$), which reduces programming current in the memory device.

In this study, $Ge_8Se_{(2+x)}Te_{(6-x)}$ thin film amorphous-to-crystalline phase-change rate was evaluated in using a nano-pulse scanner. The focused laser beam with a diameter <10 ${\mu}m$ was illuminated in the power (P) and pulse duration (t) ranges of 1-31 mW and 10-460 ns, respectively, with subsequent detection of the responsive signals reflected from the film surface. We also evaluated the material characteristics, such as optical absorption and energy gap, crystalline phases, and sheet resistance of as-deposited and annealed films. The result of experiments showed that the thermal stability of the Ge-Se-Te film is largely improved by adding Se.

액정표시소자(LCD)의 보호필름으로 사용되는 트리아세틸 셀룰로오스(TAC) 용액 필름 가공조건이 TAC 필름 사용 환경에 따른 치수안정성에 미치는 영향을 살펴보았다. 아울러 이러한 치수 안정성의 변화가 필름 기계적 및 광학 특성에 미치는 영향을 함께 살펴보았다. TAC 필름의 용액가공 시 사용되는 methylene chloride/methyl alcohol 혼합용매의 methylene chloride 함량 증가와 필름 dope에 포함된 TAC의 농도 감소에 의하여 TAC 필름 고상화 과정에서 용매의 증발속도가 빨라져 TAC 주사슬의 잔유응력을 유발시킴에 따라 항온항습 조건(65$^{\circ}C$, 90%)에서 TAC 필름의 치수안정성이 감소됨을 확인할 수 있었으며 이러한 치수안정성의 변화는 필름의 기계적 및 광학적 특성에 영향을 미침을 확인하였다.

High-quality colloidal CdSe/ZnS (core/shell) is synthesized using a continuous microreactor. The particle size of the synthesized quantum dots (QDs) is a function of the precursor flow rate; as the precursor flow rate increases, the size of the QDs decreases and the band gap energy increases. The photoluminescence properties are found to depend strongly on the flow rate of the CdSe precursor owing to the change in the core size. In addition, a gradual shift in the maximum luminescent wave (${\lambda}_{max}$) to shorter wavelengths (blue shift) is found owing to the decrease in the QD size in accordance with the quantum confinement effect. The ZnS shell decreases the surface defect concentration of CdSe. It also lowers the thermal energy dissipation by increasing the concentration of recombination. Thus, a relatively high emission and quantum yield occur because of an increase in the optical energy emitted at equal concentration. In addition, the maximum quantum yield is derived for process conditions of 0.35 ml/min and is related to the optimum thickness of the shell material.

In the present work, we investigated the photodissolution and photodiffusion effect on the interface of Ag/chalcogenide $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin film by measuring the absorption coefficient, the optical density, the resistance change of Ag layer. It was found that the photodissolutioniphotodiffution ratio depends on the magnitude of photon energy absorbed in the chalcogenide thin film and the depth of photodiffution was proportional to the square root of the exposed time. Also, we have investigated the holographic grating formation with P-polarization states on chalcogenide $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin film and $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}/Ag$ double layer structure thin film. Holographic gratings have been formed using He-Ne laser (632.8 nm) which have a smaller energy than the optical energy gap, $E_g\;_{opt}$ of the film, i. e., an exposure of sub-bandgap light $(h{\upsilon} under P-polarization. As the results, we found that the diffraction efficiency on $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}/Ag$ double layer structure thin film was more higher than that on single $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ thin film. Also, we obtained that the maximum diffraction efficiency was 0.27 %, 1,000 sec on $As_{40}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}\;(1{\mu}m)/Ag$ (10 nm) double layer structure thin film by (P: P) polarized recording beam. It will offer lots of information for the photodoping mechanism and the analyses of chalcogenide thin films.
