We investigated the effect of etching time on the surface roughness, and electrical and optical properties of ZnO and 2 wt% Al-doped ZnO (AZO) films. The ZnO and AZO films were deposited on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering technique. The etching experiment was carried out using a solution of 5% HCl at room temperature. The surface roughness was characterized by Atomic Force Microscopy. The electrical property was measured by Hall measurement system and 4-point probe. The optical property was characterized by UV-vis spectroscopy. After the wet chemical etching, the surface textures were obtained on the surface of the ZnO and AZO films. With the increase of etching time, the surface roughness (RMS) of the films increased and the transmittance of the films was observed to decrease. For the AZO film, a low resistivity of $1.0{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ was achieved even after the etching.

In this study, transparent and conductive Al-doped zinc oxide (AZO) films were prepared on a glass substrate by an radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering method using a 150-nm-thick AZO target (Al: 2 wt.%) at room temperature. We investigated the effects of RF power between 100-350 W (in steps of 50 W) on the structural, electrical, and optical properties of the AZO films. The thickness and cross-sectional images of the films were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The thicknesses of all films were kept constant at 150 nm and grown on a glass substrate. The grain sizes of the AZO films were determined with the X-ray diffraction by using the Scherrer' equation, and their electrical properties were investigated using a Hall effect electronic transport measurement system. The transmittance of the AZO films was also measured by an ultraviolet-visible spectrometer.

We have studied structural, optical, and electrical properties of the Al-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films being usable in transparent conducting oxides. The AZO thin films were deposited on the corning 1737 glass plate by the RF magnetron sputtering system. To find optimal properties of AZO for transparent conducting oxides, the RF power in sputtering process was varied as 40 W, 60 W, and 80 W, respectively. As RF power increased, the crystallinity of AZO thin film was decreased, the optical bandgap of AZO thin film increased. The transmittance of the film was over 80% in the visible light range regardless of the changes in RF power. The measurement of Hall effect characterizes the whole thin film as n-type, and the electrical property was improved with increasing RF power. The structural, optical, and electrical properties of the AZO thin films were affected by Al dopant content in AZO thin film.

We report on the electrical, optical, and structural properties of indium zinc tin oxide (IZTO) anode films grown at room temperature on glass substrate. The IZTO anode films grown by a RF magnetron sputtering were investigated as functions of RF power, working pressure, and process time in pure Ar ambient. To investigate electrical, optical and structural properties of IZTO anode films, 4-point probe, Hall measurement, UV/Vis spectrometer, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were performed, respectively. A sheet resistance of $13.88\;{\Omega}/{\square}$, average transmittance above 80 % in visible range were obtained from optimized IZTO anode films grown on glass substrate. These results shown the amorphous structure regardless of RF power and working pressure due to low substrate temperature.

We have fabricated polymer light-emitting diodes(PLED) in a structure of Glass/ITO/PVK/Al. Poly(N-vinylcabazole) (PVK) was deposited on the ITO glass with the spin coating method. PVK thickness is respectively 500nm, 300nm, 250nm and 200nm with the spin coter rotation speed of 2000, 3000, 4000 and 5000rpm. V-I, wavelength-transmittance, P-L and SEM of the fabricated devices were measured. From the result of P-L measurement, it was kept the optic properties of PVK raw powder when PVK thickness is 250nm. The knee-voltage of PVK PLED with 250nm thickness was 7V.

Hydrophilic $TiO_2$ films were deposited on slide glasses using titanium tetraisopropoxide (TTIP) as a precursor by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The temperature of substrate was $400^{\circ}C$ and the temperatures of precursor were kept at $75^{\circ}C$ (sample A) and $60^{\circ}C$ (sample B) during the $TiO_2$ film growth. The deposited $TiO_2$ films were characterized by contact angle measurement and uv/vis spectroscopy. The result show that sample B has very low contact angle of almost zero due to superhydrophilic $TiO_2$ surface and transmittance is $76.85%{\pm}1.47%$ at the range of 400 - 700 nm. So, this condition is very optimal for hydrophilic $TiO_2$ film deposition. However, when the temperature of precursor is lower is lower than $50^{\circ}C$ or higher than $75^{\circ}C$, $TiO_2$ could not be deposited on the substrate and cloudy $TiO_2$ film was formed due to low precursor temperature and the increase of surface roughness, respectively.

As model waterborne acrylic coatings, mono-dispersed poly(butyl acrylate-methyl methacrylate) copolymer latexes of random copolymer and core/shell type graft copolymer were prepared by seeded multi-staged emulsion polymerization with particle size of $180{\sim}200$ nm using semi-batch type process. Sodium lauryl sulfate and potassium persulfate were used as an emulsifier and an initiator, respectively. The effect of particle texture including core/shell phase ratio, glass transition temperature and crosslinking density, and film forming temperature on the film formation and final properties of film was investigated using SEM, AFM, and UV in this study. The film formation behavior of model latex was traced simultaneously by the weight loss measurement and by the change of tensile properties and UV transmittance during the entire course of film formation. It was found that the increased glass transition temperature and higher crosslinking degree of latex resulted in the delay of the onset of coalescence of particles by interdiffusion during film forming process. This can be explained qualitatively in terms of diffusion rate of polymer chains. However, the change of weight loss during film formation was insensitive to discern each film forming stages-I, II and III.

In this study, we prepared OLED cell with ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) films grown on the glass substrate by facing targets sputtering. Before fabrication of OLED cells, we investigated properties of ITO films deposited at various sputtering conditions. To investigate properties of as-prepared films, we employed four-point probe, UV-VIS spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), hall-effect measurement. As a results, as-prepared ITO films have high transmittance of over 85 % in the visible range (300-800 nm) and a resistivity of under $10^{-4}$ (${\Omega}-cm$). Their resistivity increased as a function of oxygen gas flow and substrate temperature. OLED cell with ITO films were fabricated by thermal evpoeartor. Properties of OLEDs cell referring to properties of ITO films.

This research is carried out to analyze the effects of Styrene and PVP on the properties of silicone hydrogel lenses. Styrene group and PVP(Polyvinylpyrrolidone) are used as additives for a basic combination containing silicone monomer, TSMA(trimethylsilyl methacrylate) and DMA(n,n-dimethylacrylamide) added to the mix at ratios of 1~10 %. Silicone hydrogel lens is produced by cast-mold method. The polymerized lens sample is hydrated in a 0.9 % saline solution for 24 hours before its optical and physical characteristics are measured. Measurement of the physical characteristics of the produced material shows that the refractive index is 1.3682~1.4321, water content 77.11~45.73 %, visible light transmittance 95.14~88.20 %, and tensile strength 0.0652~0.3113 kgf. The results show a decrease of refractive index as the ratio of additives and water content decreases. The result of the stabilization test of polymerization show an increase of extractables along with increase of the ratio of additives, but the difference is not significant for all samples, so it can be judged that the stabilization of the polymer is maintained. Therefore, the additions of styrene and PVP should be taken into consideration for their effects on the physical properties of silicone hydrogel lens.
