$SrTiO_3$[ST] thin films were fabricated on $RuO_2$bottom electrodes by RF magnetron sputtering with various $Ar/O_2$ratio in sputtering gas. As the content of oxygen increases, the leakage current of ST films measured at $10^5$ V/cm decreases from $2.0{\times}10^{-6}A/{\textrm}{cm}^2(Ar/O_2=10/0)$ to $3.8{\times}10^{-7}A/{\textrm}cm^2(Ar/O_2=5/5)$, and the dielectric constant of ST films increases from $70(Ar/O_2=10/0)$ to $190(Ar/O_2=5/5)$. The improvement of electrical properties of ST films is mainly due to the structural modification of ST films such as better crystallinity, smooth surface morphology with the increase of oxygen content in the sputtering gas.

The SrRuO_{3}$ films for application of the bottom electrode were deposited on p-Si (001) substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The films are characterized by various deposition parameters. The optimum deposition condition for SRO films is the deposition temperature of $500{\circ}C$, Sr/Ru input mol ratio of 1.0, and a flow rate of precursors of 15 ml/h. The films deposited by an optimum condition exhibited a single phase of SrRuO_{3}$, an rms roughness of 8 nm, and a resistivity of approximately $900{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. The high resistivity of the films for application of a bottom electrode should be improved through a characterization of an interface.

Gbit급 DRAM 커패시터의 고유전물질로 각광받고 있는 (Ba,Sr)TiO$_3$〔BST〕의 하부전극 물질로서 (Ba,Sr)RuO$_3$〔BSR〕의 적용 가능성을 연구하였다. BSR은 BST와의 구조적, 화학적 유사성으로 인하여, BST와 하부전극사이의 저유전 계면반응 충의 생성을 최소화함으로서 향상된 전기적 특성을 구현 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 methoxyethoxytetramethylheptanedionate(METHD) 소스를 적용한 유기 화학 기상 증착법(MOCVD)법을 이용하여 BSR을 증착하였으며, 증착된 BSR의 특성을 x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) 분석법으로 기화기 온도 변화에 따른 BSR박막의 특성을 분석하였다. 증착온도 55$0^{\circ}C$에서 소스의 기화효율에 영향을 미치는 기화기온도를 변화시켜가며 BSR박막의 증착실험을 진행하였으며 소스 유입 속도 0.075sccm, 증착 온도 55$0^{\circ}C$, Ar/O2 = 200/350 sccm일 때 기화기 온도를 260~28$0^{\circ}C$까지 1$0^{\circ}C$간격의 변화로 증착실험을 수행하였다.

One of the weak points of the Cr-doped SZO is that until now, it has only been fabricated on perovskite substrates, whereas NiO-ReRAM devices have already been deposited on Si substrates. The fabrication of RAM devices on Si substrates is important for commercialization because conventional electronics are based mainly on silicon materials. Cr-doped ReRAM will find a wide range of applications in embedded systems or conventional memory device manufacturing processes if it can be fabricated on Si substrates. For application of the commercial memory device, Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ perovskite thin films were deposited on a $SrRuO_3$ bottom electrode/Si(100)substrate using pulsed laser deposition. XRD peaks corresponding to the (112), (004) and (132) planes of both the SZO and SRO were observed with the highest intensity along the (112) direction. The positions of the SZO grains matched those of the SRO grains. A well-controlled interface between the $SrZrO_3$:Cr perovskite and the $SrRuO_3$ bottom electrode were fabricated, so that good resistive switching behavior was observed with an on/off ratio higher than $10^2$. A pulse test showed the switching behavior of the Pt/$SrZrO_3:Cr/SrRuO^3$ device under a pulse of 10 kHz for $10^4$ cycles. The resistive switching memory devices made of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ thin films deposited on Si substrates are expected to be more compatible with conventional Si-based electronics.

Ferroelectric $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ and Si(100) substrate by using conductive $SrRuO_3$ films as underlayer, and their ferroelectric and electrical properties were investigated depending on crystal structure and orientation. C-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on well lattice-matched pseudo-cubic $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on $SrTiO_3(100)$ substrate, while random-oriented polycrystalline $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ films were grown on $SrRuO_3$ films deposited on Si(100) substrate. The random-oriented polycrystalline film showed a good ferroelectric hysteresis property with remanent polarization ($P_r$) of $9.4{\mu}C/cm^2$ and coercive field ($E_c$) of 84.9 kV/cm, while the c-axis oriented film showed $P_r=0.64{\mu}C/cm^2$ and $E_c=47kV/cm$ in polarizaion vs electric field curve. The c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed a dielectric constant of about 150 and lower thickness dependence in dielectric constant compared to the random-oriented film. Furthermore, the c-axis oriented $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ film showed leakage current lower than that of the polycrystalline film. The difference of ferroelectric properties in two films was explained from the viewpoint of depolarization effect due to orientation of spontaneous polarization and layered crystal structure of bismuth-base ferroelectric oxide.

Superconductor-ferromagnet thin film heterostructure is an ideal system for studying the interplay between superconductivity and ferromagnetism. These two antagonistic properties combined in thin film heterostructure create interesting proximity effects such as spin-triplet superconductivity. Thin film heterostructure of optimally doped La_2-xSr_xCuO₄(LSCO) cuprate superconductor and SrRuO₃(SRO) ruthenate ferromagnet has been grown by pulsed laser deposition. Its temperature-dependent resistivity and Hall effect measurements show that our LSCO/SRO heterostructure has both superconductivity and ferromagnetism. In the Hall effect measurement results, we find additional hump-like structures appear in the anomalous Hall effect signal in the vicinity of superconducting transition. We conclude that giant magnetoresistance of the LSCO layer distorts the AHE signal, which results in a hump-like structure.
