  • These days, the quality of indoor air is a very important concept for modern people who have lived in building and is a matter of new thinking. The quality is determined by the temperature and humidity of indoor air. In addition, there is a disadvantage in that energy consumption is severe for indoor air improvement. Therefore, researches on methods to solve such problems using total heat exchange have been actively conducted. So, in this study, aminated poly(styrene-ethylene-butylene-styrene) polymers were synthesized by introducing a hydrophilic substituent, ammonium, into main chain and the properties of synthesized polymers were evaluated. The synthesis was carried out through chloromethylation and amination reactions to introduce ammonium into main chain. As a result, the water uptake and the ion exchange capacity of the synthesized polymers increased as the content of the reaction reagent solution increased. It was confirmed that the important data at the total heat exchange membrane, water vapor transmission rate also increased according to temperature, equivalent.

  • In order to achieve a high speed and high quality silicon wafer bonding, the room-temperature direct bonding using atmospheric pressure plasma and sprayed water vapor was developed. Effects of different plasma fabrication parameters, such as flow rate of $N_2$ gas, flow rate of CDA (clear dry air), gap between the plasma head and wafer surface, and plasma applied voltage, on plasma activation were investigated using the measurements of the contact angle. Influences of the annealing temperature and the annealing time on bonding strength were also investigated. The bonding strength of the bonded wafers was measured using a crack opening method. The optimized condition for the highest bonding strength was an annealing temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ and an annealing time of 2 hours. For the plasma activation conditions, the highest bonding strength was achieved at the plasma scan speed of 30 mm/sec and the number of plasma treatment of 4 times. After optimization of the plasma activation conditions and annealing conditions, the direct bonding of the silicon wafers was performed. The infrared transmission image and the cross sectional image of bonded interface indicated that there is no void and defects on the bonded wafers. The bonded wafer exhibited a bonding strength of average $2.3J/m^2$.

  • Fermented soy sauce was dehydrated by spray drying to form powder, and moisture sorption properties of powdered soy sauce with or without cover of the flexible films were examined on different relative humidity by using saturated salt solutions at $30^{\circ}$. The results obtained were summarized as follows: The equilibrium moisture content of spray-dried soy sauce containing 18.3% moisture was determined to 52% by graphical interpolation method, and E.M.C. of powdered soy sauce covered with plastic films decreased at low relative humidity whereas sharply increased curves were seen at high relative humidity. The rate constant of moisture adsortion K for the power covered with films were $66.2{\times}10^{-5}\;to\;225{\times}10^{-5}/hr$., and K' became greater when film having higher water vapor transmission rate was used. The shelf-life of powdered soy sauce covered with Al. foil/P.E. film by Brown formula at the accelerated condition of $38^{\circ}$, 92% R. H. was the longest period, 164 days compared with any other films used, and the shortest period, 18 days in P.V.C. film.

  • In order to protect the solar cells from the moisture and oxygen, we evaluated the electrical and optical properties for the $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ (CIGS) solar cells which were prepared by the spray coating method. Generally, the EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate) films are laminated to protect the CIGS flexible solar cells, which results in a high cost process due to complicated devices. In this study, we tried to prepare the protection layers of the flexible CIGS flexible solar cells by using spray coating method instead of conventional laminating films in order to reduce the device weight as well as the process time. The CIGS solar cells with spray coating method showed an enhanced efficiency than the before treated sample (2.77% to 2.93%) and relatively proper water vapor transmission rate of the solar cells about 62.891 gm/[$m^2-day$].

  • 차세대 디스플레이로서 주목 받고 있는 유연성 정보표시 소자 개발에 대한 요구도가 날로 증대되고 있다. 유연성 정보표시 소자로서 플라스틱 기반 유연성 소자가 특히 주목 받고 있으나, 이의 실용화를 위해서는 플라스틱 기판에 적용 가능한 보호막 형성 기술 개발이 선행되어야 한다. 플라스틱 필름의 경우 높은 산소 및 수분 투과율 때문에 유연성 디스플레이의 응용에 걸림돌이 되고 있다. 플라스틱 기반 유연성 소자의 장수명화를 위해서는 수분과 산소의 투과를 방지하는 passivation layer 형성 기술이 필수적으로 요구된다. 본 연구에서는, polyethylene terephethalate (PET) 기판상에 증착된 $SiO_x$ 보호막의 합성에 있어서 중간층 유무에 따른 투습특성의 변화를 살펴보았다. 기화된 HMDSO (Hexamethyldisiloxane)와 Ar 및 $O_2$ 혼합기체를 이용하여 PECVD 방법으로 $SiO_x$ 박막을 합성하였다. 15 nm 두께의 $Al_2O_3$를 중간층으로 사용하여 중간층 유무에 따른 초기성장 거동 변화가 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. $SiO_x$ 박막 구조와 화학적 조성은 각각 FE-SEM과 FT-IR을 이용하여 분석하였으며, AFM을 이용하여 $SiO_x$ 박막 표면 미세 형상을 관찰하였다. 투습률은 MOCON사(社)의 Permatran-W 3/33 MA을 이용하여 측정하였다. 그리고 반복 굽힘 시험기를 이용하여 $SiO_x$ 보호막의 동적 투습 특성을 조사하였다. $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 유무에 따라 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습률 (WVTR; water vapor transmission rate)은 ${\sim}10^{-1}g/m^2/day$(300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/PET)에서 ${\sim}5{\times}10^{-3}g/m^2/day$(300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/15 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$/PET)으로 변화하였다. 300 nm-thick $SiO_x$/15 nm-thick $Al_2O_3$/PET 시편의 경우 곡지름 50 mm에서 1,000회 반복 굽힘 후에도 투습률 변화를 보이지 않았다. 이와 같은 $SiO_x$ 박막의 투습 특성 변화는 $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 유무에 따른 초기 성장 거동의 변화로 해석된다. FE-SEM 및 AFM 표면 미세 구조 관찰을 통한 초기 성장 거동 변화 조사 결과, $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 없이 PET 기판위에 $SiO_x$ 박막 증착한 경우 3 차원 성장을 하는 반면, PET기판위에 $Al_2O_3$ 중간층 형성 후 $SiO_x$ 박막 증착하는 경우 2 차원 성장을 하게 됨을 관찰하였다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여, 플라스틱 기반 유연성 표시 소자에 적용하기 위한 $SiO_x$ 보호막 합성 에 있어서 초기 성장 거동의 변화가 투습 특성에 민감한 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.
