정밀 기계산업과 반도체 산업의 진보와 더불어 대상물의 초순도 세정이 하이테크 산업발전에 가장 중요한 핵심기술로 부각되고 있다. 현재 초순수 세정은 크게 습식세정과 건식세정으로 분류하고 있다. 습식세정의 경우 오랜 경험과 높은 세정효율을 보이고 있지만, 다량의 탈이온수에 과산화수소, 황산, 불산 또는 수산화 암모늄 등의 독성첨가제를 반복적으로 사용하고 있어 독성 폐수발생등 심각한 환경오염을 유발하고 있다. 따라서, 최근에는 습식 세정에 따른 환경오염의 문제를 개선하기 위한 노력으로 몇 가지 건식 세정기술이 개발되고 있다. 최근 들어 건식세정 방법 중에 소위 초임계상태의 환경 용매를 사용하는 기술이 개발되고 있으며, 높은 세정효율과 더불어 환경친화성이 높은 유망한 기술로 받아들여지고 있어 국제적인 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이 논문에서는 초임계 이산화탄소 세정에 관심을 두어, 초임계 용매의 물리화학적 특성과 환경친화측면, 세정공정의 엔지니어링, 그리고 국내외 기술 현황을 종합적으로 분석 평가하였다.

본 총론에서는 원자층 증착을 이용한 친환경 소재의 개발에 대한 최근 연구 결과들을 간단하게 소개하려 한다. 원자층 증착의 장점은 박막의 두께를 미세하게 조절할 수 있다는 것과, 3차원적으로 복잡한 구조를 가지는 담체의 형상을 유지하면서 균일한 박막을 제조할 수 있다는 것이다. 이러한 원자층 증착의 장점은 친환경소재를 제조하는 데 중요한 역할을 할 수 있다. Anodic aluminum oxide (AAO)와 같은 다공성 membrane을 담체로 이용하여, 다공성 구조는 그대로 유지하면서 10나노미터 정도의 $TiO_2$박막을 균일하게 증착할 경우 톨루엔 등의 휘발성 유기물 필터로 사용할 수 있는데, 이는 AAO의 특이한 기하학적 구조와 비정질 $TiO_2$의 강한 휘발성 유기물 흡착력의 조합에 의한 결과이다. 톨루엔 분해용 광촉매 및 이산화탄소 개질 반응에 의한 수소 생산 촉매 반응에 있어서도 나노다이아몬드나 니켈 담체 위에 $TiO_2$의 증착량을 미세하게 조절하여 $TiO_2$가 표면을 완전히 덮지 않고 부분적으로만 덮고 있는 구조를 만들 경우 촉매의 효율 및 수명을 극대화할 수 있게 된다. 이러한 예들은 원자층 증착이 기존의 반도체산업뿐만 아니라 환경소재의 개발에도 중요한 도구가 될 수 있음을 의미한다.

이온성 액체는 일정한 온도 범위에서 액체로 존재하는 이온성 염으로, 유기 양이온과 유기 또는 무기 음이온의 이온결합으로 이루어져 있다. 본 연구에서는 이온성 액체를 CdSe/ZnS 반도체 나노입자 합성의 리간드 및 용매로 사용하여 이들이 나노입자의 형태와 결정 구조에 미치는 영향에 대해서 연구하였다. CdSe/ZnS 나노입자는 용매로 알킬기의 길이가 다른 imidazolium 계열; 1-R-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([RMIM][TFSI]), R = ethyl ([EMIM]), butyl ([BMIM]), hexyl ([HMIM]), octyl ([OMIM]), 을 사용하여, 평균 크기는 약 8~9 nm 이고 두 상 zinc-blende 및 wurtzite 혼합물로 합성하는 것을 성공하였다. 또한, CdSe/ZnS 나노입자는 trihexyltetradecylphosphonium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([$P_{6,6,6,14}$][TFSI]) 이온성 액체와 octadecene (ODE)의 혼합 용액을 사용하여 합성하였다. [$P_{6,6,6,14}$][TFSI]의 부피비가 증가함에 따라 나노입자의 결정 구조가 zinc-blende 구조에서 wurtzite 구조로 조절되었다. 또한 나노입자의 평균 크기는 약 5.5 nm 로써 [RMIM][TFSI] 를 사용했을 때 보다 더 작게 합성되었다. 이처럼 이온성 액체에 의해서 나노입자의 크기뿐 만 아니라 결정 구조도 조절할 수 있음을 처음으로 증명하였다.

In order to develop novel thermal imaging materials for microbolometer applications, $[(Ni_{0.3}Mn_{0.7})_{1-x}Cu_x]_3O_4$ ($0.18{\leq}x{\leq}0.26$) thin films were fabricated using metal-organic decomposition. Effects of Cu content on the electrical properties of the annealed films were investigated. Spinel thin films with a thickness of approximately 100 nm were obtained from the $[(Ni_{0.3}Mn_{0.7})_{1-x}Cu_x]_3O_4$ films annealed at $380^{\circ}C$ for five hours. The resistivity (${\rho}$) of the annealed films was analyzed with respect to the small polaron hopping model. Based on the $Mn^{3+}/Mn^{4+}$ ratio values obtained through x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis, the hopping mechanism between $Mn^{3+}$ and $Mn^{4+}$ cations discussed in the proposed study. The effects of $Cu^+$ and $Cu^{2+}$ cations on the hopping mechanism is also discussed. Obtained results indicate that $[(Ni_{0.3}Mn_{0.7})_{1-x}Cu_x]_3O_4$ thin films with low temperature annealing and superior electrical properties (${\rho}{\leq}54.83{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, temperature coefficient of resistance > -2.62%/K) can be effectively employed in applications involving complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) integrated microbolometer devices.

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) show great promise as an inexpensive alternative to conventional p-n junction solar cells. Investigations into the various factors influencing the photovoltaic efficiency have recently been intensified. The conventional absorber electrode in DSSC is composed of compacted or sintered $TiO_2$ nanopowder that carries an anchored organic dye. The absorbance of incident light in the DSC is realized by specifically engineered dye molecules placed on the semiconductor electrode surface ($TiO_2$). The dye absorbs light at wavelengths up to about 920nm, the energy of the exited state of the molecule should be about 1.35eV above the electronic ground state corresponding to the ideal band gap of a single band gap solar cell. The dye molecules ar adhered onto the nanostrutured $TiO_2$ electrode by immersing the sintered electrode into a dye solution, typically 3mM in alcohol, for a long enough period to fully impregnate the electrode. However, the concentrations of the dye is slightly changed due to the evaporation of the alcohol. The dye is more expensive than other materials in DSSC and related to the efficiency of DSSC. Therefore, the concentrations of the dye should be carefully measured. In this study, we investigated to the dye loading on fired $TiO_2$ powder as a function of temperature by the TG-DTA and the dye solution by UV-visible spectroscopy after the impregnation process. The dye loading is related to the porosity of the nanostructured $TiO_2$ electrode.

There has been an explosive development of nanocrystal (NC) synthesis and application due to their composition-dependent specific properties. Despite the composition, shape, and size of NCs foremost determine their physicochemical properties, the surface state and molecule conjugation also drastically change their characteristics. To make practical use of NCs, it is a prerequisite to understand the NC surface state and the degree to which they have been modified because the reaction occurs on the interface between the NCs and the surrounding medium. We report in here an analysis method to identify conjugated ligands and their binding states on semiconductor nanocrystals based on their molecular information. Surface science techniques, such as time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and FT-IR spectroscopy, are adopted based on the micro-aggregated sampling method. Typical trioctylphosphine oxide-based synthesis methods of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have been criticized because of the peculiar effects of impurities on the synthesis processes. Since the ToF-SIMS technique provides molecular composition evidence on the existence of certain ligands, we were able to clearly identify the n-octylphosphonic acid (OPA) as a surface ligand on CdSe/ZnS QDs. Furthermore, the complementary use of the ToF-SIMS technique with the FT-IR technique could reveals the OPA ligands' binding state as bidentate complexes.

Low dielectric materials have been great attention in the semiconductor industry to develop high performance interlayer dielectrics with low k for Cu interconnect technology. In our study, the dielectric properties of SiOC /SiO2 thin film derived from polyphenylcarbosilane were investigated as a potential interlayer dielectrics for Cu interconnect technology. Polyphenylcarbosilane was synthesized from thermal rearrangement of polymethylphenylsilane around $350^{\circ}C{\sim}430^{\circ}C$. Characterization of synthesized polyphenylcarbosilane was performed with 29Si, 13C, 1H NMR, FT-IR, TG, XRD, GPC and GC analysis. From FT-IR data, the band at 1035 cm-1 is very strong and assigned to CH2 bending vibration in Si-CH2-Si group, indicating the formation of the polyphenylcarbosilane. Number average of molecular weight (Mn) of the polyphenylcarbosilane synthesized at $400^{\circ}C$ for 6hwas 2, 500 and is easily soluble in organic solvent. SiOC/SiO2 thin film was fabricated on ton-type silicon wafer by spin coating using 30wt % polyphenylcarbosilane incyclohexane. Curing of the film was performed in the air up to $400^{\circ}C$ for 2h. The thickness of the film is ranged from $1{\mu}m$ to $1.7{\mu}m$. The dielectric constant was determined from the capacitance data obtained from metal/polyphenylcarbosilane/conductive Si MIM capacitors and show a dielectric constant as low as 2.5 without added porosity. The SiOC /SiO2 thin film derived from polyphenylcarbosilane shows promising application as an interlayer dielectrics for Cu interconnect technology.

Semiconductor nanowires offer exciting possibilities as components of solar cells and have already found applications as active elements in organic, dye-sensitized, quantum-dot sensitized, liquid-junction, and inorganic solid-state devices. Among many semiconductors, silicon is by far the dominant material used for worldwide photovoltaic energy conversion and solar cell manufacture. For silicon wire to be used for solar device, well aligned wire arrays need to be fabricated vertically or horizontally. Macroscopic silicon wire arrays suitable for photovoltaic applications have been commonly grown by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process using metal catalysts such as Au, Ni, Pt, Cu. In the case, the impurity issues inside wire originated from metal catalyst are inevitable, leading to lowering the efficiency of solar cell. To escape from the problem, the wires of purity of wafer are the best for high efficiency of photovoltaic device. The fabrication of wire arrays by the electrochemical etching of silicon wafer with photolithography can solve the contamination of metal catalyst. In this presentation, we introduce silicon wire arrays by electrochemical etching method and then fabrication methods of radial p-n junction wire array solar cell and the various merits compared with conventional silicon solar cells.

In order to meet the requirements of faster speed and higher packing density for devices in the field of semiconductor manufacturing, the development of Cu/Low k device material is explored for use in multi-layer interconnection. SiOC(-H) thin films containing alkylgroup are considered the most promising among all the other low k candidate materials for Cu interconnection, which materials are intended to replace conventional Al wiring. Their promising character is due to their thermal and mechanical properties, which are superior to those of organic materials such as porous $SiO_2$, SiOF, polyimides, and poly (arylene ether). SiOC(-H) thin films containing alkylgroup are generally prepared by PECVD method using trimethoxysilane as precursor. Nano voids in the film originating from the sterichindrance of alkylgroup lower the dielectric constant of the film. In this study, methyltriphenylsilane containing bulky substitute was prepared and characterized by using NMR, single-crystal X-ray, GC-MS, GPC, FT-IR and TGA analyses. Solid-state NMR is utilized to investigate the insoluble samples and the chemical shift of $^{29}Si$. X-ray single crystal results confirm that methyltriphenylsilane is composed of one Si molecule, three phenyl rings and one methyl molecule. When methyltriphenylsilane decomposes, it produces radicals such as phenyl, diphenyl, phenylsilane, diphenylsilane, triphenylsilane, etc. From the analytical data, methyltriphenylsilane was found to be very efficient as a CVD or PECVD precursor.

Colloidal semiconductor CdSe-ZnS core-shell nanocrystal quantum dot (Qdot) are luminescent inorganic fluorophores that show potential to overcome some of the functional limitations encountered with organic dyes in fluorescence labeling applications. Salmonella Enteritidis has emerged as a major cause of human salmonellosis worldwide since the 1980s. A rapid, specific, and sensitive method for the detection of Salmonella Enteritidis was developed using Qdot as a fluorescence marker coupled with immunomagnetic separation. Magnetic beads coated with anti-Salmonella Enteritidis antibodies were employed to selectively capture the target bacteria, and biotin-conjugated anti-Salmonella antibodies were added to form sandwich immune complexes. After magnetic separation, the immune complexes were labeled with Qdot via biotin-streptavidin conjugation, and fluorescence measurement was carried out using a fluorescence measurement system. The detection limit of the Qdot method was a Salmonella Enteritidis concentration of $10^3$ colony-forming units (CFU)/mL, whereas the conventional fluorescein isothiocyanate-based method required over $10^5CFU/mL$. The total detection time was within 2 h. In addition to the potential for general nanotechnology development, these results suggest a new rapid detection method of various pathogenic bacteria from a complex food matrix.
