AbstractA high-quality silicon dioxide (SiO2) suitable for a gate oxide on plastic substrates is successfully deposited by e-gun evaporation at room temperature. The e-gun evaporated oxide film is free from troublesome hydrogen atoms and high-energy ion damage, which ensures good electrical characteristics. N2O/N2 plasma post-treatment was effective to reduce the flat band voltage and leakage current of the evaporated oxides due to the passivation of high-energy nitrogen and oxygen radicals. In the SiO2 film treated by N2O/N2 plasma for 1 minute, the flat band voltage has been reduced from −2.5V to about −0.5V and the leakage current has been decreased by more than one order. Our experimental results show that very low temperature SiO2 film suitable for a gate insulator of TFTs on the plastic substrates has been successfully obtained by the e-gun evaporation and N2O/N2 plasma post-treatment.

A multidisciplinary approach is demonstrated to elucidate coal weathering at a molecular level. Fourier Transform Infrared Photoacoustic Spectroscopy (FT-IR/PAS) provides a technique for a compositional depth profile of coal by simply varying the modulation frequency (mirror velocity) of the light impinging upon the solid surface. In order that the potential of this technique in this field could be evaluated, large-sized coal samples were examined. The PA difference spectra obtained from the spectra taken at different modulation frequencies (i.e., different depths), on a sample aged in air, demonstrate the appearance of negative features in the CH infrared absorption which are indicative of a coal alteration. Therefore, different coal layers can be distinguished by FT-IR/PAS. The application of the same technique to the study of a coal sample heated in air at 200°C allows the detection of different oxidation mechanisms operating inside and outside the coal. Although quantitative results are difficult to obtain, the technique can be successfully proposed for a qualitative description of coal weathering.
