Quality of PEDOT electrode thin film vapor phase-polymerized on 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) self-assembled monolayer (SAM) is very crucial for making an ohmic contact between electrode and semiconductor layer of an organic transistor. In order to improve the quality of PEDOT film, the quality of APS-SAM laying underneath the film must be in the best condition. In this study, in order to improve the quality of APS-SAM, the monolayer was self-assembled on $SiO_2$ surface by a dip-coating method under strictly controlled relative humidity (< 18%RH). The quality of APS-SAM and PEDOT thin film were investigated with a contact angle analyzer, AFM, FE-SEM, and four-point probe. The investigation showed that a PEDOT film grown on the humidity-controlled SAM is very smooth and compact (sheet resistivity = 20.2 Ohm/sq) while a film grown under the uncontrolled condition is nearly amorphous and contains quite many pores (sheet resistivity = 200 Ohm/sq). Therefore, this study clearly proves that a highly improved quality of APSSAM can offer a highly conductive PEDOT electrode thin film on it.

3-아미노프로필메톡시 실란을 처리한 반응성 있는 유리표면 위에 "LbL" 방법을 사용하여 $\alpha$-D-만노실 풀러렌[$C_{60}$]-금 나노입자를 자기조립 하였다. 표면 처리한 유리막을 $\alpha$-D-만노실 풀러렌[$C_{60}$]과 헥산 티올레이트/아미노 티오페녹사이드-금나노입자를 포함하고 있는 용액속에 교대로 담그었다. $\alpha$-D-만노실 풀러렌[$C_{60}$] -금 나노입자 필름을 시간에 따라 다중성(5층)막으로 제조하였다. 자외선-가시광선 분광기를 사용한 자기조립 나노입자 필름의 분석은 530 nm 일 때 금 나노입자의 표면 플라스몬 밴드로 인해 다중성(5층)막이 형성되는 것을 보여주었다.

Self-assembled monolayer(SAM)로 변형된 금 전극 위로 폴리피롤의 전기화학적 석출 과정을 수용액 상태에서 in-situ EQCM (Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance)과 ex-situ AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy)을 이용하여 조사하였다. 금 전극에서 cyclic voltammetry로 살펴본 폴리머의 석출은 산화 제한 전위 (anodic limiting potential) 값에 매우 의존적이었으며 주사 횟수에는 의존하지 않았다. 제한 산화 전위가 0.8V (vs Ag | ArCl) 이상일 때 폴리머의 석출은 크게 증가하였다. 그리고 주사 횟수가 증가하면서 질량의 비이상적 변화가 관찰되었는데 이것은 폴리피롤 필름의 rearrangement가 원인이라고 생각된다. 1-dodecanethiol SAM 전극과 thiophene SAM전극에서는 폴리머가 3차원적으로 성장하며 필름의 rearrangement를 수반하였지만 BPUS $(Bis(\omega(N-pyrrolyl)-n-undecyl)disulfide)$ SAM 전극에서는 2차원적인 layer-by-layer 성장을 하고 필름의 rearrangement는 관찰되지 않았다. 폴리머가 급격하게 전극 면으로 석출되면 사슬 모양과 도너츠 모양의 폴리머를 만들며, 정류 상태에 이르면서 주름잡힌 폴리머 필름이 생성되는 것이 원자 힘 현미경 (Atomic Force Microscopy) 이미지로 관찰되었다.

We investigated the carbon monoxide (CO) gas-sensing properties of nanostructured Al-doped zinc oxide thin films deposited on self-assembled Au nanodots (ZnO/Au thin films). The Al-doped ZnO thin film was deposited onto the structure by rf sputtering, resulting in a gas-sensing element comprising a ZnO-based active layer with an embedded Pt/Ti electrode covered by the self-assembled Au nanodots. Prior to the growth of the active ZnO layer, the Au nanodots were formed via annealing a thin Au layer with a thickness of 2 nm at a moderate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$. It was found that the ZnO/Au nanostructured thin film gas sensors showed a high maximum sensitivity to CO gas at $250^{\circ}C$ and a low CO detection limit of 5 ppm in dry air. Furthermore, the ZnO/Au thin film CO gas sensors exhibited fast response and recovery behaviors. The observed excellent CO gas-sensing properties of the nanostructured ZnO/Au thin films can be ascribed to the Au nanodots, acting as both a nucleation layer for the formation of the ZnO nanostructure and a catalyst in the CO surface reaction. These results suggest that the ZnO thin films deposited on self-assembled Au nanodots are promising for practical high-performance CO gas sensors.

본 논문은 UV(ultraviolet) 처리된 자기 조립 단분자막(fluorinated self-assembled monolayers; FSAM)을 배향막으로 사용한 액정의 배향 특성을 분석하였다. 물리화학적 분석을 사용하여 UV 처리 전후의 ITO(indium-tin-oxide) 유리 기판의 FSAM 특성을 확인하였다. FSAM 표면은 UV 처리에 의해 소수성에서 친수성으로 변화하였다. LC(liquid crystal) 분자는 UV 처리된 FSAM 표면에서 수평방향으로 정렬되었고 선경사각도 90°에서 0°로 변화하였다. UV 처리된 FSAM을 배향막으로 사용하여 제작된 TN(twist nematic) 셀의 전기광학(electro optics; EO) 특성은 기존의 PI(polyimide) 배향막에 비해 응답 시간이 빠른 것을 확인하였다. 이는 UV 처리된 FSAM 이 LCD(liquid crystal display)의 기존 폴리이미드 배향막을 대체할 잠재적인 가능성을 가진다.

In this work, we fabricated various 2D metallic and polymeric nanopatterns with the feature resolution of sub-micrometer scale by using the method of microcontact printing ($\mu$ P) based on soft lithography. Silicon masters for the micromolding were made by e-beam lithography. Composite poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) molds were composed of a thin, hard layer supported by soft PDMS layer. Finally, monodisperse metal or polymer particles could be obtained in the prepared pattern for the application of electronic devices.

Fully coherent self-assembled InAs quantum dots(QDs) grown on Si (100) substrates by atmospheric pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(APMOCVD) were grown and the effect of growth conditions such as growth rate and growth time on quantum dots' morphology such as densities and sizes was investigated. InAs QDs of 30 - 80 nm in diameters with densities in the range of (0.6 - 1.7) x $10^{10}\;cm^{-2}$ were achieved on Si substrates and InAs layer was changed from 2 dimensional growth to 3 dimensional one at a nominal thickness less than 0.48 ML. This is attributed to the higher ambient pressure of APMOCVD suppressing of In segregation from the 2 dimensional InAs layer. This In segregation looked to disturb the dot formation especially when the growth rate was low so that the dots became less dense and bigger as the growth rate was lower.

Currently, molecular devices are reported utilizing active self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) containing the nitro group as the active component, which has active redox centers [1]. SAMs are ordered molecular structures formed by the adsorption of an active surfactant on a solid surface. The molecules will be spontaneously oriented toward the substrate surface and form an energetically favorable ordered layer. During this process, the surface-active head group of the molecule chemically reacts with and chemisorbs onto the substrate In this paper, the electrical properties of the 4'4- di(ethynylphenyl)-2'-nitro-1-benzenethiolate was confirmed. This material is well known as a conducting molecule having possible application to molecular level negative differential resistance (NDR) device. To deposit the self-assembly monolayers onto the gold electrode, the prefabricated Au(1 l l) substrates were immersed into 0.5[mM/l] self-assembly molecule in THF solution. Then, the electrical properties and surface morphologies of 4' 4-di(ethynylphenyl)-2' -nitro-1-benzenethiolate were measured by using the ultra-high vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM).
