Hole carrier selective MoOx film is obtained by atomic layer deposition(ALD) using molybdenum hexacarbonyl[$Mo(CO)_6$] as precursor and ozone($O_3$) oxidant. The growth rate is about 0.036 nm/cycle at 200 g/Nm of ozone concentration and the thickness of interfacial oxide is about 2 nm. The measured band gap and work function of the MoOx film grown by ALD are 3.25 eV and 8 eV, respectively. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) result shows that the $Mo^{6+}$ state is dominant in the MoOx thin film. In the case of ALD-MoOx grown on Si wafer, the ozone concentration does not affect the passivation performance in the as-deposited state. But, the implied open-circuit voltage increases from $576^{\circ}C$ to $620^{\circ}C$ at 250 g/Nm after post-deposition annealing at $350^{\circ}C$ in a forming gas ambient. Instead of using a p-type amorphous silicon layer, high work function MoOx films as hole selective contact are applied for heterojunction silicon solar cells and the best efficiency yet recorded (21 %) is obtained.

차세대 반도체 기술은 이종소자 집적화(heterogeneous integration)를 이용한 시스템-인-패키징(system-inpackage, SIP) 기술로 발전하고 있고, 저온 Cu 본딩은 SIP 구조의 성능 향상과 미세 피치 배선을 위해서 매우 중요한 기술이라 하겠다. 본 연구에서는 porous한 Ag 나노막을 이용하여 Cu 표면의 산화 방지 효과와 저온 Cu 본딩의 가능성을 조사하였다. 100℃에서 200℃의 저온 영역에서 Ag가 Cu로 확산되는 것보다 Cu가 Ag로 확산되는 것이 빠르게 관찰되었고, 이는 저온에서 Ag를 이용한 Cu간의 고상 확산 본딩이 가능함을 나타내었다. 따라서 Ag 나노막을 이용한 Cu 본딩을 200℃에서 진행하였고, 본딩 계면의 전단 강도는 23.27 MPa로 측정되었다.

본 연구는 절탄기 튜브의 저온부식 손상을 방지하기 위해 Inconel 625 용사재료를 활용하여 아크 열용사 코팅기술 적용 후 실링처리를 실시하였다. 용사코팅(TSC) 층의 내식성 분석을 위해 0.5 wt% 황산 수용액에서 다양한 전기화학적 실험을 진행하였다. 양극분극 실험 후에는 주사전자현미경과 EDS 성분분석을 통해 부식 손상 정도를 파악하였다. 자연전위 계측 시 TSC+실링처리(TSC+Sealing)의 안정적인 전위 형성을 통해 실링처리 효과를 확인하였다. 양극분극 실험 결과 TSC와 TSC+Sealing에서 부동태 영역이 확인되었으며, 부식 손상 역시 관찰되지 않아 내식성이 개선되었다. 더불어 타펠분석에 의해 산출된 부식전위와 부식전류밀도 분석 결과 TSC+Sealing의 내식성이 가장 우수하게 나타났다.

Advances in screen printing technology have been led to development of high efficiency silicon solar cells. As a post PERx structure, an n-type wafer-based rear side TOPCon structure has been actively researched for further open-circuit voltage (Voc) improvement. In the case of the metal contact of the TOPCon structure, the poly-Si thickness is very important because the passivation of the substrate will be degraded when the metal paste penetrates until substrate. However, the thin poly-Si layer has advantages in terms of current density due to reduction of parasitic absorption. Therefore, poly-Si thickness and firing temperature must be considered to optimize the metal contact of the TOPCon structure. In this paper, we varied poly-Si thickness and firing peak temperature to evaluate metal induced recombination (Jom) and contact resistivity. Jom was evaluated by using PL imaging technique which does not require both side metal contact. As a results, we realized that the SiN_x deposition conditions can affect the metal contact of the TOPCon structure.

The display industry is transitioning from traditional rigid products such as flat panel displays to flexible or wearable ones designed to be folded or rolled. Accordingly, colorless and optically transparent polyimide (CPI) films are one of the prime candidates to substitute traditional cover glass as a passivation layer to accommodate product flexibility. However, CPI films subjected to repetitive pure bending loads inevitably entail an accumulation of residual strain that can eventually cause wrinkles or delamination in the underlying component after a certain number of static and cyclic loading. The purpose of this study is to establish an experimental method to systematically evaluate the bending residual strain of CPI films. Films were monotonically and cyclically wrapped on mandrels of various diameters to ensure a constant strain in each. After unwrapping the wound CPI film, the residual radius of curvature remaining on the film was measured and converted into residual strain. The critical radius of curvature at which residual strain does not remain was about 5 mm, and the residual strain decreased in proportion to the log time. It is expected that flexible displays can be reliably designed using the data between the applied bending strain and the residual strain.

The radial distribution of etch rate was analyzed using the ion energy flux model in VHF-CCP. In order to exclude the effects of polymer passivation and F radical depletion on the etching. The experiment was performed in Ar/SF6 plasma with an SF6 molar ratio of 80% of operating pressure 10 and 20 mTorr. The radial distribution of Ar/SF6 plasma was diagnosed with RF compensated Langmuir Probe(cLP) and Retarding Field Energy Analyzer(RFEA). The radial distribution of ion energy flux was calculated with Bohm current times the sheath voltage which is determined by the potential difference between the plasma space potential (measured by cLP) and the surface floating potential (by RFEA). To analyze the etch rate uniformity, Si coupon samples were etched under the same condition. The ion energy flux and the etch rate show a close correlation of more than 0.94 of R² value. It means that the etch rate distribution is explained by the ion energy flux.

In the present study, the corrosion behavior of aluminum Al-7075 tempered (T-6 condition) alloy was evaluated by immersion testing and electrochemical testing in 1.75% and 3.5% NaCl environment at acidic, neutral and basic pH. The data obtained by both immersion tests and electrochemical corrosion tests (potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests) present that the corrosion rate of the alloy specimens is minimum for the pH=7 condition of the solution due to the formation of dense and well adherent thin protective oxide layer. Whereas the solutions with acidic and alkaline pH cause shift in the corrosion behavior of aluminum alloy to more active domains aggravated by the constant flux of acidic and alkaline ions (Cl^- and OH^-) in the media which anodically dissolve the Al matrix in comparison to precipitated intermetallic phases (cathodic in nature) formed due to T6 treatment. Consequently, the pitting behavior of the alloy, as observed by cyclic polarization tests, shifts to more active regions when pH of the solutions changes from neutral to alkaline environment due to localized dissolution of the matrix in alkaline environment that ingress by diffusion through the pores in the oxide film. Microscopic analysis also strengthens the results obtained by immersion corrosion testing and electrochemical corrosion testing as the study examines the corrosion behavior of this alloy under a systematic evaluation in marine environment.

AlGaN/GaN 이종접합 구조는 이차원 전자 가스층(2-DEG)으로 인해 높은 전자이동도를 갖고 있으며, 넓은 밴드갭을 갖기 때문에 고온에서 높은 항복전압을 갖는 특성을 가지고 있어, 고전력, 고주파 전자 소자로 주목받고 있다. 이러한 이점을 갖고 있음에도 불구하고, 전류 붕괴 등의 다양한 소자 신뢰성에 영향을 주는 인자들이 있기 때문에 이를 해결하고자, 본 논문에서는 금속-유기-화학기상증착법을 이용하여 AlGaN/GaN 이종 접합구조와 SiN 패시베이션 층을 연속 증착시켰다. 이를 통해 HEMTs소자에 SiN패시베이션이 미치는 재료 특성 및 전기적 특성을 분석했으며, 결과를 바탕으로 저주파 잡음 특성을 측정해 소자의 전도 메커니즘 모델과 채널 내의 결함의 원인에 대해서 분석하였다.

In heterojunction technology (HJT) solar cells, low-temperature curing paste is used because the passivation layer deteriorates at high temperatures of 200℃ or higher. However, manufacturing HJT photovoltaic (PV) modules is challenging due to the weak peel strength between busbar electrodes and cells after soldering process. For this issue, the electrode thicknesses of the busbars of the HJT solar cell were analyzed, and the peel strengths between electrodes and wires were measured after soldering using an infrared (IR) lamp. As a result, the electrodes printed by the screen printing method had a difference in thickness due to screen mask. Also, as the thickness of the electrode increased, the peel strength of the wire increased.

본 연구에서는 반도체 웨이퍼 연마 공정에 사용한 산화제와 첨가제의 연마 속도에 미치는 영향과 전기 화학적 특성에 대해 조사하였다. 산화제로는 과산화수소, 질산화 철과 요오드산 칼륨을 사용하였으며, 이들은 연마액의 pH와 종류에 따라 텅스텐 막질에서 상이한 산화반응을 나타내었다. 이러한 차이점은 연마성능에 영향을 끼치며, 과산화수소는 식각반응이 질산화 철과 요오드산 칼륨에서는 부동태 반응이 우세하였다. 그리고 염기성 화합물인 TMAH와 KOH를 연마액에 첨가하였을 때 텅스텐에 대한 전위 에너지 변화 증가 및 연마 제거속도 증가를 확인할 수 있었으며, 제타 전위 값의 절대 값 증가를 통해 분산성 향상에도 도움이 되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 마지막으로 음이온 계면 활성제중 평균 분자량이 25만인 폴리아크릴산을 100 ppm 첨가시 연마 입자의 뭉침 현상이 줄어들면서 분산성 향상에 효과적인 것을 알 수 있었다.
