  • Technical demands for aspheric glass lens formed in market increases its application from simple camera lens module to fiber optics connection module in optical engineering. WC is often used as a metal core of the aspheric glass lens, but the long life time is issued because it fabricated in high temperature and high pressure environment. High hard thin film coating of lens core increases the core life time critically. Diamond Like Carbon(DLC) thin film coating shows very high hardness and low surface roughness, i.e. low friction between a glass lens and a metal core, and thus draw interests from an optical manufacturing industry. In addition, DLC thin film coating can removed by etching process and deposit the film again, which makes the core renewable. In this study, DLC films were deposited on the SiC ceramic core. The process variable in FVA(Filtered Vacuum Arc) method was the substrate bias-voltage. Deposited thin film was evaluated by raman spectroscopy, AFM and nano indenter and measured its crystal structure, surface roughness, and hardness. After applying optimum thin film condition, the life time and crystal structure transition of DLC thin film was monitored.

  • $Ni(OH)_2/Ni$ Glass 박막에서 전기변색 속도 개선에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 이는 선글라스의 변색속도가 수분 이상 소요되는 단점을 해결하고자 e-beam evaporator를 이용하여 니켈 금속 박막을 증착시킨 후, 전기화학적 산화-환원 반응으로 $Ni(OH)_2$에 대한 전기변색 특성을 연구하였다. 전기전도성을 갖는 ITO 에서보다 Glass 위에서의 $Ni(OH)_2$의 변색 속도가 오히려 빠르다. 이는 전위와 투과율을 측정함으로서 알 수 있다. XPS를 이용하여 Glass와 $Ni(OH)_2$ 사이의 초박막(${\sim}10{\AA}$) Ni 금속의 존재를 확인하였고, 이 나노 박막은 전기변색 장치의 응답 속도에 영향을 마쳤다. 기존의 선글라스가 5분 정도 소요되는 반면 니켈 나노 박막을 이용한 변색소자에서는 1~2초 정도 소요된다. 이론적으로는 수 ms 이내이지만 전기적 저항으로 인해 초 단위의 응답속도를 보이고 있다.

  • Mg and In co-doped ZnO (MIZO) thin films with transparent conducting characteristics were successfully prepared on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering technique. The Influence of different substrate temperature (from RT to $400^{\circ}C$) on the structural, morphological, electrical, and optical properties of MIZO thin films were investigated. The MIZO thin film prepared at the substrate temperature of $350^{\circ}C$ showed the best electrical characteristics in terms of the carrier concentration ($4.24{\times}10^{20}cm^{-3}$), charge carrier mobility ($5.01cm^2V^{-1}S^{-1}$), and a minimum resistivity ($1.24{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$). The average transmission of MIZO thin films in the visible range was over 80% and the absorption edges of MIZO thin films were very sharp. The bandgap energy of MIZO thin films becomes wider from 3.44 eV to 3.6 eV as the substrate temperature increased from RT to $350^{\circ}C$. However, Band gap energy of MIZO thin film was narrow at substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$.

  • Measuring the thickness of thin films is strongly required in the display industry. In recent years, as the size of a pattern has become smaller, the substrate has become larger. Consequently, measuring the thickness of the thin film over a wide area with low spatial sampling size has become a key technique of manufacturing-yield management. Interferometry is a well-known metrology technique that offers low spatial sampling size and the ability to measure a wide area; however, there are some limitations in measuring the thickness of the thin film. This paper proposes a method to calculate the thickness of the thin film in the following two steps: first, pre-estimation of the thickness with the phase at the peak position of the interferogram at the bottom surface of the thin film, using white-light phase-shift interferometry; second, accurate correction of the measurement by fitting the interferogram with the theoretical pattern through the estimated thickness. Feasibility and accuracy of the method has been verified by comparing measured values of photoresist pattern samples, manufactured with the halftone display process, to those measured by AFM. As a result, an area of $880{\times}640$ pixels could be measured in 3 seconds, with a measurement error of less than 12%.

  • Ti-나프텐산염과 금속을 출발원료로 사용하고, 스핀코팅-열분해법을 이용하여 실리카 유리위에 박막을 제조하였다. 도포된 박막은 $500^{\circ}C$ 공기에서 10min동안 열처리하였다. 이를 5회 코팅한 박막은 마지막으로 공기에서 $600^{\circ}C$에서 30min으로 하였다. 박막의 특성을 분석하기 위하여 X-선 회절 분석, 전자현미경, UV스펙트럼을 이용하여 분석하였다. 밴드갭에서 가장 큰 장파장 쪽으로 이동은 Fe을 도핑한 $TiO_2$ 박막이었다.

  • The OTFT devices had inverted staggered structures of Au/pentacene/ppMMA/ITO on PET substrate. The overall device performances of the flexible devices such as the operating voltage, the field effect mobility, the on/off ratio and the off current are somewhat worse than those of devices fabricated on glass substrates. Pentacene/ppMMA OTFT benchmarks (mobility, sub-threshold slope, on/off ratio) were comparable to that of solution cast PMMA, but below average when compared to other polymer gate dielectrics. However, threshold and drive voltages were among the lowest reported for a polymer gate dielectric, and surpassed only by ultra-thin SAM gate dielectrics.

  • 강자성체인 철과 니켈의 박막에서 전류와 자기장이 이루는 각도의 변화에 따른 자기저항의 변화를 관찰하였다. 경사각에 따른 PMR과 NMR의 크기가 같은 ${\phi}_{mix}$의 변화는 전류에 수직한 자기장의 성분과 평행한 자기장의 성분이 같게 되는 각도에서 자기저항 루프의 역전이 되는 것을 이용하면 ${\phi}_{mix}=tan^{-1}(1+tan{\theta})$와 같이 구해진다. 위 관계식은 실험치와 잘 일치함을 보여준다. 반면에 철박막의 경우에는 니켈박막과 자화축이 다르게 나타나서 ${\phi}_{mix}$가 위 식으로 주어진 관계와 일치하지 않는다.

  • Indium tin oxide (ITO) films with a 5 nm thick Au interlayer were prepared on glass substrates. The effects of the Au interlayer on the gas sensitivity for detecting methanol vapors were investigated at room temperature. The conductivity of the film sensor increased upon exposure to methanol vapor and the sensitivity also increased proportionally with the methanol vapor concentration. In terms of the sensitivity measurements, the ITO film sensor with an Au interlayer shows a higher sensitivity than that of the conventional ITO film sensor. This approach is promising in gaining improvement in the performance of ITO gas sensors used for the detection of methanol vapor at room temperature.

  • Submicron gratings are fabricated holographically on thin film single mode and multimode waveguides. Thin film waveguides are made by spin-coating polyurethane solution on the substrates of microscope slide glass and Corning 7059 glass. In order to characterize thin film waveguides, the refract사e index and the thickness of thin films are measured by using the m-line spectroscopy. The fabricated gratings are tested as a grating coupler, a mode converter, and a beam splitter. Also chirped gratings are fabricated to observe beam expansion phenomena and thus the possibility of the wavelength demultiplexing.
