The electrical and optical properties of fluorine-doped tin oxide films grown on polyethylene terephthalate film witha hardness of 3 using electron cyclotron resonance plasma with linear microwave of 2.45GHz of high ionization energy wereinvestigated. Fluorine-doped tin oxide films with a magnetic field of 875 Gauss and the highest resistance uniformity wereobtained. In particular, the magnetic field could be controlled by varying the distribution in electron cyclotron depositionpositions. The films were deposited at various gas flow rates of hydrogen and carrier gas of an organometallic source. Thesurface morphology, electrical resistivity, transmittance, and color in the visible range of the deposited film were examined usingSEM, a four-point probe instrument, and a spectrophotometer. The electromagnetic field for electron cyclotron resonancecondition was uniformly formed in at a position 16cm from the center along the Z-axis. The plasma spatial distribution ofmagnetic current on the roll substrate surface in the film was considerably affected by the electron cyclotron systems. Therelative resistance uniformity of electrical properties was obtained in film prepared with a magnetic field in the current rangeof 180~200A. SEM images showing the surface morphologies of a film deposited on PET with a width of 50cm revealedthat the grains were uniformly distributed with sizes in the range of 2~7nm. In our experimental range, the electrical resistivityof film was able to observe from 1.0×10−2 to 1.0×10−1Ωcm where optical transmittance at 550nm was 87~89%. Theseproperties were depended on the flow rate of the gas, hydrogen and carrier gas of the organometallic source, respectively.
Oxide semiconductors Thin-film transistors are an exemplified one owing to its excellent ambient stability and optical transparency. In particular zinc oxide (ZnO) has been reported because It has stability in air, a high electron mobility, transparency and low light sensitivity, compared to any other materials. For this reasons, ZnO TFTs have been studied actively. Furthermore, we expected that would be satisfy the demands of flexible display in new generation. In order to do that, ZnO TFTs must be fabricated that flexible substrate can sustain operating temperature. So, In this paper we have studied low-temperature process of zinc oxide(ZnO) thin-film transistors (TFTs) based on silicon nitride (SiNx)/cross-linked poly-vinylphenol (C-PVP) as gate dielectric. TFTs based on oxide fabricated by Low-temperature process were similar to electrical characteristics in comparison to conventional TFTs. These results were in comparison to device with SiNx/low-temperature C-PVP or SiNx/conventional C-PVP. The ZnO TFTs fabricated by low-temperature process exhibited a field-effect mobility of 0.205 cm2/Vs, a thresholdvoltage of 13.56 V and an on/off ratio of 5.73×106. As a result, We applied experimental for flexible PET substrate and showed that can be used to ZnO TFTs for flexible application.
다공질 실리콘층(Porous Silicon LayerLPSL)을 사용하여 저온 열산화 (500˚C, 1시간)와 급속 열산화공정(rapid thermal oxidationLRTO)(1150˚C, 1분)을 통하여 저온 산화막을 제조하였다. 제조된 산화막의 특성을 IR흡수 스펙트럼, C-V 곡선, 절연파괴전압, 누설전류, 그리고 굴절률을 조사함으로써 알아보았다. 절연파괴전압은 2.7MV/cm, 누설전류는 0-50V 범위에서 100-500pA의 값을 보였다. 산화막의 굴절률은 1.49의 값으로서 열산화막의 굴절률에 근접한 값을 나타냈다. 이 결과로부터 다공질 실리콘층을 저온산화막으로 제조할 때, RTO공정이 산화막의 치밀화(densification)에 크게 기여함을 알 수 있었다.
