Indium tin oxide(ITO) substrate is one of the key components of the touch panel and its sputtering process is dependent on the characteristics of various touch panel, such as driving type, size of panel, and the intended use. In this study, we optimized the sputtering condition of ITO film on polycarbonate(PC) by using in-line sputtering method for the application to resistive type touch panel. We varied the $O_2$/Ar gas ratio, sputtering power, pressure and moving speed of substrate to deposit ITO films at room temperature with the base vacuum of $1{\times}10^{-6}\;torr$. The sheet resistance and its uniformity, the transmittance, the thickness of the ITO film on PC substrate are investigated and analyzed. The optimized process parameters are as follows : the sheet resistance is $500{\pm}50\;{\Omega}$/□, the uniformity of sheet resistance is lower than 10%, the transmittance is higher than 87 % at 550nm, and the thickness is about 120~250. The optimized deposition conditions by in-line sputtering method can be applied to the actual mass production for the ITO film manufacturing technology.

The ZnSe sample grown by chemical bath deposition (CBD) method were annealed in Ar gas at $45^{\circ}C$. Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction pattern, it was found to have zinc blend structure whose lattice parameter $a_o$ was $5.6687\;{\AA}$. From Hall effect, the mobility was likely to be decreased by impurity scattering at temperature range from 10 K to 150 K and by lattice scattering at temperature range from 150 K to 293 K. The band gap given by the transmission edge changed from $2.700{\underline{5}}\;eV$ at 293 K to $2.873{\underline{9}}\;eV$ at 10 K. Comparing photocurrent peak position with transmission edge, we could find that photocurrent peaks due to excition electrons from valence band, ${\Gamma}_8$ and ${\Gamma}_7$ and to conduction band ${\Gamma}_6$ were observed at photocurrent spectrum. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light on the ZnSe thin film, we have found that values of spin orbit coupling splitting ${\Delta}so$ is $0.098{\underline{1}}\;eV$. From the PL spectra at 10K, the peaks corresponding to free bound excitons and D-A pair and a broad emission band due to SA is identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be $0.061{\underline{2}}\;eV$ and the dissipation energy of the donor -bound exciton and acceptor-bound exciton to be $0.017{\underline{2}}\;eV$, $0.031{\underline{0}}\;eV$, respectively.
