A microstructure array has been proposed for micro plasma generation using electroplating and double exposed process. A stable atmospheric plasma has been generated at a low voltage by utilizing the micro electrode gap. Self-aligned microstructure can provide uniform electrode overlap with precisely controlled gap between the electrodes. The proposed structure allows for triode operation, which can expand the generated plasma over a large area by applying a lateral electric field. Electrical characteristics of the micro triode confirm the large numbers of the plasma ions are drifted to the secondary cathode by the lateral electrical field.

This paper presents the fabrication and field emission of carbon nanotube field emitters for a micro mass spectrometer. The carbon nanotube is an adequate material as a field emitter since it has good characteristics. We have successfully fabricated a diode field emitter and a triode field emitter. Each field emitter has been constructed using several micromachining processes and a thermal CVD process. In the case of the diode field emitter, to increase the electric field, the carbon nanotubes are selectively grown on the patterned nickel catalyst layer. The electron current of the diode field emitter is 73.2 ${\mu}A$ when the anode voltage is 1100V. That of the triode field emitter is 3.4 pA when the anode voltage is 1000V.

We studied the density control of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) which were grown on the iron nanoparticles prepared from iron-acetate [$Fe(II)(CH_3COO)_2$] solution using freeze-dry method. The density of CNTs was controlled for the enhancement of field emission. The patterning process of iron-acetate catalyst-layer for the fabrication of electronic device was simply achieved by using alkaline solution, TMAH (tetramethylammonium hydroxide). We applied this patterning process of catalyst layer to formation of the electron emitter with under gate type triode structure.

We investigated under-gate type carbon nanotube field emitter arrays (FEAs) for back light unit (BLU) in liquid crystal display (LCD). Gate oxide was formed by wet etching of ITO coated glass substrate instead of depositing $SiO_2$ on the glass substrate. Wet etching is easer and simpler than depositing and etching of thick gate oxide to isolate the gate metal from cathode electrode in triode. Field emission characteristic s of triode structure were measured. The maximum current density of 92.5 ${\mu}A/cm^2$ was when the gate and anode voltage was 95 and 2500 V, respectively at the anode-cathode spacing of 1500 ${\mu}m$.

In this paper, we propose a Rail-to-Rail OTA using equivalent MOSFETs without cutoff region, which operate in triode and saturation regions. The proposed circuit has a merit that its input range is not limited due to voltage drop of current mirrors. The simulation results of the proposed circuit are shown. From the simulation results, the linearity of the proposed circuit is improved when input voltage is from 2V to 3V.

본 논문에서는 저전압에서 동작하는 CMOS 아날로그 4상한 멀티플라이어를 설계하였다. 제안된 멀티플라이어는 2개의 완전 차동 트랜스컨덕터로 구성되고 공급 전압을 VT+2VDS,sat+VDS,triode로 낮게 유지할 수 있다. 설계된 아날로그 4상한 멀티플라이어는 1.2V 공급전압에서 0.25㎛ CMOS n-well 공정 파라미터를 이용하여 HSPICE 시뮬레이션 하였다. 시뮬레이션 결과 0.7VP-P 최대 입력에서 THD는 1.28%이다.

The characteristic of single wall carbon nanotube (SW-CNT) and herringbone nano fiber (HB-CNF) emitters was described. SW-CNT synthesized by arc discharge and HB-CNF prepared by thermal CVD were mixed with binders and conductive materials, and then were formed by screen-printing process. In order to obtain efficient field emissions, the surface treatment of rubbing & peel-off was applied to the printed CNT and CNF emitters. The basic structure of FED was of a diode type through fully vacuum packaging. Also, we proposed a new triode type of field emitter using a mesh gate plate having tapered holes and could achieve the ideal triode properties with no gate leakage currents.

Conducting diamond-like carbon films are synthesized using Triode Magnetron Sputtering-Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition(TMS-PECVD), and are examined by four point probe, microhardeness tester, and scanning electron miscroscopy(SEM). As the target bias and Ar/CH$_4$, ratio increase, the electrical resitivity and microhardness of the films are found to decrease, and also, their surface morphologies tend to be rough. While the resistivities of the films are shown to increase in proportion to the increase of the substrate bias, the microhardness of the films is shown to be maximun value(1600kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$) at a certain substrate bias(-70V). We can obtain the conducting diamond-like carbon films with the microhardness of 1600(kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$) and electrical resitivity of 16($\Omega$cm) at the process condition such as target bias -400V, substrate bias -70V, and Ar/$CH_4$ ratio 20.
