In the structure of ITO/N,N'-diphenyl-N,N' bis (3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine(TPD) /2,9-Dimethy 1-4,7-diphenyl-1,10-phenanthroline (BCP)/tris (8-hydroxyquinoline)aluminum$(Alq_3)$/Al device, we studied the efficiency improvement of organic light-emitting diodes due to thickness variation of BCP materials used for a electron breaking layer. The thickness of TPD and $Alq_3$ was manufactured 40 nm, 60 nm, respectively under a base pressure of $5\times10^{-6}$Torr using a thermal evaporation. The TPD and $Alq_3$ layer were evaporated to be at a deposition rate of 2.0 A/s. The BCP was evaporated to be at a deposition of 1.0 A/s. When the thickness of BCP increased from 5 to 30 nm, we found that the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency is superior to the others when the thickness of BCP is 20 nm. Compared to the ones from the devices made without BCP, the luminous efficiency and the external quantum efficiency was improved by 57 %, 70%, respectively.

We analysed interfacial traps in organic thin-film transistors (TFTs) in which pentacene and 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilylethynyl)-pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) organic semiconductors were deposited by means of vacuum-thermal evaporation and drop-coating methods, respectively. The thermally-deposited pentacene film consists of dentritic grains with the average grain size of around 1 m, while plate-like crystals over a few hundred microns are observed in the solution-processed TIPS-pentacene film. From the transfer characteristics of both TFTs, lower subthreshold slope of 1.02 V/decade was obtained in the TIPS-pentacene TFT, compared to that (2.63 V/decade) of the pentacene transistor. The interfacial trap density values calculated from the subthreshold slope are about $3.4{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$ and $9.4{\times}10^{12}/cm^2$ for the TIPS-pentacene and pentacene TFTs, respectively. Herein, lower subthreshold slope and less interfacial traps in TIPS-pentacene TFTs are attributed to less domain boundaries in the solution-processed TIPS-pentacene film.

현재 Cu(In,Ga)Se2나 Cu2ZnSn(S,Se)4 (CZTSSe)계 박막태양전지의 버퍼층으로 가장 많이 사용되는 물질은 CdS이다. 하지만 Cd의 독성 문제로 인해 사용에 제약이 있고, CdS의 작은 밴드갭(~2.4 eV)으로 인해 단 파장 영역에서 광활성층의 빛 흡수를 저해하는 문제 때문에 새로운 대체 물질을 찾으려는 연구가 많이 이루어지고 있다. 이러한 관점에서, ZnS계 물질은 독성 원소인 Cd을 사용하지 않고, 3.6 eV 정도의 큰 밴드갭을 가지기 때문에, CdS 버퍼층을 대체하기 위한 물질로 관심을 받고 있다. ZnS계 버퍼층을 증착하는 위해 chemical bath deposition (CBD), molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), thermal evaporation, spray pyrolysis, sputtering, elecrtrodepostion 등의 다양한 공정이 사용될 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 상기의 다양한 공정 가운데, 공정 단가가 낮고, 대면적 공정에 용이한 CBD 공정을 이용하여 ZnS계 버퍼층을 증착하는 연구를 수행하였다. 용액의 조성, 농도, 공정 온도, 시간 등을 비롯한 다양한 공정 변수가 ZnS계 박막의 morphology, 조성, 결정성, 광학적 특성 등 다양한 특성에 미치는 영향이 체계적으로 연구되었다. 또한, 상기 ZnS계 버퍼층을 CZTSSe 박막태양전지에 적용하여 CdS를 성공적으로 대체할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 본 연구를 통하여 ZnS계 버퍼층이 향후 친환경적인 박막태양전지 제조에 활용될 수 있는 가능성을 확인할 수 있었다.

NAND형 charge trap flash (CTF) non-volatile memory (NVM) 소자가 30nm node 이하로 고집적화 되면서, 기존의 SONOS형 CTF NVM의 tunnel barrier로 쓰이는 SiO2는 direct tunneling과 stress induced leakage current (SILC)등의 효과로 인해 data retention의 감소 등 물리적인 한계에 이르렀다. 이에 따라 개선된 retention과 빠른 쓰기/지우기 속도를 만족시키기 위해서 tunnel barrier engineering (TBE)가 제안되었다. TBE NVM은 tunnel layer의 전위장벽을 엔지니어드함으로써 낮은 전압에서 전계의 민감도를 향상 시켜 동일한 두께의 단일 SiO2 터널베리어 보다 빠른 쓰기/지우기 속도를 확보할 수 있다. 또한 최근에 각광받는 high-k 물질을 TBE NVM에 적용시키는 연구가 활발히 진행 중이다. 본 연구에서는 Si3N4와 HfAlO (HfO2 : Al2O3 = 1:3)을 적층시켜 staggered의 새로운 구조의 tunnel barrier Capacitor를 제작하여 전기적 특성을 후속 열처리 온도와 방법에 따라 평가하였다. 실험은 n-type Si (100) wafer를 RCA 클리닝 실시한 후 Low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD)를 이용하여 Si3N4 3 nm 증착 후, Atomic layer deposition (ALD)를 이용하여 HfAlO를 3 nm 증착하였다. 게이트 전극은 e-beam evaporation을 이용하여 Al를 150 nm 증착하였다. 후속 열처리는 수소가 2% 함유된 질소 분위기에서 $300^{\circ}C$와 $450^{\circ}C$에서 Forming gas annealing (FGA) 실시하였고 질소 분위기에서 $600^{\circ}C{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$까지 Rapid thermal annealing (RTA)을 각각 실시하였다. 전기적 특성 분석은 후속 열처리 공정의 온도와 열처리 방법에 따라 Current-voltage와 Capacitance-voltage 특성을 조사하였다.

In this paper, it was demonstrated that organic thin- film transistors (OTFTs) were fabricated with the organic adhesion layer between an organic semiconductor and a gate insulator by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) processing. In order to form polymeric film as an adhesion layer, VDP process was also introduced instead of spin-coating process, where polymeric film was co-deposited by high-vacuum thermal evaporation from 6FDA and ODA followed by curing. The saturated slop in the saturation region and the subthreshold nonlinearity in the triode region were c1early observed in the electrical output characteristics in our organic thin film transistors using the staggered-inverted top-contact structure. Field effect mobility, threshold voltage, and on-off current ratio in 15-nm-thick organic adhesion layer were about $0.5\;cm^2/Vs$, -1 V, and $10^6$, respectively. We also demonstrated that threshold voltage depends strongly on the delay time when a gate voltage has been applied to bias stress.

We have studied a lifetime in organic light-emitting diodes depending on buffer layer. A transparent electrode of indium-tin-oxide(ITO) was used as an anode. And the cathode for electron injection was LiAl. Phthalocyanine Copper(CuPc), Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly (PEDOT:PSS), or poly (9-vinylcarbazole)(PVK) material was used as a buffer layer. A thermal evaporation was performed to make a thickness of 40nm of TPD layer at a rate of $0.5{\sim}1\;{\AA}/s$ at a base pressure of $5{\times}10^{-6}\;torr$. A material of tris(8-hydroxyquinolinate) Aluminum($Alq_3$) was used as an electron transport and emissive layer. A thermal evaporation of $Alq_3$ was done at a deposition rate of $0.7{\sim}0.8[{\AA}/s]$ at a base pressure of $5{\times}10^{-6}\;torr$. By varying the buffer material, hole injection at the interface could be controlled because of the change in work function. Devices with CuPc and PEDOT:PSS buffer layer are superior to the other PVK buffer layer.

Low-cost, high efficiency solar cells are tremendous interests for the realization of a renewable and clean energy source. ZnTe based solar cells have a possibility of high efficiency with formation of an intermediated energy band structure by impurity doping. In this work, the ZnTe:O/CdS/ZnO structure was fabricated by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. A pulsed (10 Hz) Nd:YAG laser operating at a wavelength of 266 nm was used to produce a plasma plume from an ablated a ZnTe target, whose density of laser energy was 4.5 J/cm2. The base pressure of the chamber was kept at a pressure of approximately $4{\times}10-7Torr$. ZnO thin film with thickness of 100 nm was grown on to ITO/glass, and then CdS and ZnTe:O thin film were grown on ZnO thin film. Thickness of CdS and ZnTe:O were 50 nm and 500 nm, respectively. During deposition of ZnTe:O films, O2 gas was introduced from 1 to 20 mTorr. For fabricating ZnTe:O/CdS/ZnO solar cells, Au metal was deposited on the ITO film and ZnTe:O by thermal evaporation method. From the fabricated ZnTe:O/CdS/ZnO solar cell, current-voltage characteristics was measured by using HP 4156-a semiconductor parameter analyzer. Finally, solar cell performance was measured using an Air Mass 1.5 Global (AM 1.5 G) solar simulator with an irradiation intensity of 100 mW cm-2.

본 논문에서는 건식중합법에 속하는 진공증착 중합법을 이용하여 내열 절연성 박막 을 제작하고 열경화 온도에 따른 박막의 물성과 전기적 특성에 대해 연구하였다. hexafluoroisopropyliden-2,2-bis[phthalicanhydride](6FDA)와 4,4'-diamino diphenyl ether (DDE) 단량체를 화학량론적으로 최적의 온도인 $214^{\circ}C$, $137^{\circ}C$부분에서 같은 증발율을 보일 때 폴리이미드를 형성하였다. 진공증착 중합된 박막은 열경화에 의해 이미드특성 피이크가 증가되며, 폴리아믹산의 형태에서 폴리이미드 형태로 축중합되어짐을 알 수 있었다. 열경화 온도가 증가함에 따라 박막의 두께는 감소되고 굴절율은 증가된다. 열경화 온도가 $300^{\circ}C$인 경우 최적임을 알았고, 이 온도에서 열경화 시킨 폴리이미드의 전기적 특성에서 100Hz~ 200kHz주파수에서는 3.7의 비유전율을 나타내었고, 유전정접은 0.008의 낮은 값을 보였다. 또한, 30~에서 약1.05$\times$1015$\Omega$cm의 저항율을 보였다.

In this paper, polyimide thin films are fabricated by vapor deposition polymerization method appling to the interlayer insulator of semiconductor device, and are investigated in detail. It is found that the packing density and uniformity of films deposited by thermal evaporation are increased according to curing temperature. The resistivity, breakdown strength, relative permitivity, and dielectric loss are $3.2\tomes10^{15}\Omega$cm, 4.61 MV/cm, 2.9(10kHz) at $25^{\circ}C$, respectively. This thin films can be endured at $230^{\circ}C$ for 20,000 hours. Finally, we conclude that the thin films having the characteristics similar to those of $SiO_2$ can be used as an insulation films between layers of semiconductor device.
