The pore size of nickel (Ni) bottom electrode layer (BEL) for low-temperature solid oxide fuel cells embedded with ultrathin-film electrolyte was controlled by changing the substrate surface morphology and deposition process parameters. For ~150-nm-thick Ni BEL, the upper side of an anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) substrate with ~65-nm-sized pores provided ~1.7 times smaller pore size than the lower side of the AAO substrate. For ~100-nm-thick Ni BEL, the AAO substrate with ~45-nm-sized pores provided ~2.6 times smaller pore size than the AAO substrate with ~95-nm-sized pores, and the deposition pressure of ~4 mTorr provided ~1.3 times smaller pore size than that of ~48 mTorr. On the AAO substrate with ~65-nm-sized pores, the Ni BEL deposited for 400 seconds had ~2 times smaller pore size than the Ni BEL deposited for 100 seconds.

To overcome the theoretical efficiency of single-junction solar cells (> 30 %), tandem solar cells (or multi-junction solar cells) is considered as a strong nominee because of their excellent light utilization. Organic-inorganic halide perovskite has been regarded as a promising candidate material for next-generation tandem solar cell due to not only their excellent optoelectronic properties but also their bandgap-tune-ability and low-temperature process-possibility. As a result, they have been adopted either as a wide-bandgap top cell combined with narrow-bandgap silicon or CuIn_xGa_(1-x)Se₂ bottom cells or for all-perovskite tandem solar cells using narrow- and wide-bandgap perovskites. To successfully transition perovskite materials from for single junction to tandem, substantial efforts need to focus on fabricating the high quality wide- and narrow-bandgap perovskite materials and semi-transparent electrode/recombination layer. In this paper, we present an overview of the current research and our outlook regarding perovskite-based tandem solar technology. Several key challenges discussed are: 1) a wide-bandgap perovskite for top-cell in multi-junction tandem solar cells; 2) a narrow-bandgap perovskite for bottom-cell in all-perovskite tandem solar cells, and 3) suitable semi-transparent conducting layer for efficient electrode or recombination layer in tandem solar cells.

Ferroelectric SBT($SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$) thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate using R.F. magnetron sputtering method. The ferroelectric and electric characteristics were investigated with various post-annealing of Pt at $200{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. Compared with SBT thin film which had not post-annealed, the electrical properties and crystallizations of the SBT thin films were relatively improved by the post-annealing of Pt bottom electrode. The crystallization were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electrical properties characteristics were observed by HP 4192A and precision LC.

To enhance the tunneling electroresistance (TER) ratio of a ferroelectric tunnel junction (FTJ) device using Al-doped HfO₂ thin films, a thin insulating layer was prepared on a TiN bottom electrode, for which TiN was preliminarily treated at various temperatures in O₂ ambient. The composition and thickness of the inserted insulating layer were optimized at 600℃ and 50 Torr, and the FTJ showed a high TER ratio of 430. During the heat treatments, a titanium oxide layer formed on the surface of TiN, that suppressed oxygen vacancy generation in the ferroelectric thin film. It was found that the fabricated FTJ device exhibits two distinct resistance states with higher tunneling currents by properly heat-treating the TiN bottom electrode of the HfO₂-based FTJ devices in O₂ ambient.

[ $Bi_{3.25}La_{0.75}Ti_3O_{12}$ ] (BLT) thin films were prepared by using metal organic decomposition method onto the LaNiO3 (LNO) bottom electrode. Both the structure and morphology of the films were analyzed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscope (AFM). Even at low temperatures ranging from 450 to $650^{\circ}C$, the BLT thin films were successfully deposited on LNO bottom electrode and exhibited (117) orientation. The BLT thin films annealed as low as $600^{\circ}C$ showed excellent ferroelectricity, higher remanent polarization and no significant degradation of switching charge at least up to $5{\times}10^9$ switching cycles at a frequency of 100 kHz and 5 V. For the annealing temperature of $600^{\circ}C$, the remanent polarization $P_r$ and coercive field were $23.5\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 120 kV/cm, respectively.

Lean zirconate titanate (PZT) is an attractive material for the memory device applications. We have investigated Pt and{{{{ { RuO}_{2 } }}}} as a botton electrode for a device application of PZT thin film. The bottom electrodes were prepared by using an RF magnetron sputtering method. The substrate temperature influenced the resistivity of Pt and {{{{ { RuO}_{2 } }}}} a s well as the film crystal structure. XRD examination shows that a preferred(111) orientations for the substrate temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$. From the XRD and AFM results, we recommend the substrate temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$ for the bottom electrode growth. We investigated and anneal temperature effect because Perovskite PZT structure is recommended for the memory device applications and the structural transformation is occurred only after and elevated heat treatment. As post anneal temperature was increased from RT to $700^{\circ}C$, the resistivity of Rt and {{{{ { RuO}_{2 } }}}} w as decreased. Surface morphology was observed by AFM as a function of post anneal temperature.

We studied the effects of the Zr/Ti ration and the bottom electrode (Pt or ITO) on the electrical properties of PZT thin films prepared by sol-gel method. Their permittivities and tagent losses with the variation of frequencies were measured by the LCR meter and their maximum polarizations, remanent polarizations, and coercive fields were obtained from the hysteresis loops measured by the Sawyer-Tower circuit. For the PZT thin film of the Zr/Ti ration of 53/47, permittivity at 10kHz, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations ere measured as 952, 20.7kV/cm, 10.43${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 4.3${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ration of 25/75, coercive field, maximum and remanent polarizations were measured as 33.12kV/cm, 5.59${\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and 1.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, respectively. For the film of the Zr/Ti ratio of 75/25, they were measured as 23.8kV/cm, 7.45${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, and 3.5${\mu}C/cm^{2}$, repectively. Our investigation into the effects of the lower electrode on the electrical properties of PZT films showed the following results. The permittivities of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode decreased more quickly than those of the PZT films on the Pt electrode. The tangent losses of the former films increased more quickly than those of the latter. These may be due to the degradation of the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film, which results from the diffusion of Pb. It is also noticeable that permittivities and tangent losses of the PZT films deposited on the ITO electrode varied differently with the Zr/Ti ratio. This may indicate that the quality of the interface between the electrode and the film changes with the Zr/Ti ration of the PZT film.

본 논문에서 높은 투과율을 가질 수 있는 PVA (Patterned Vertical Aligned) 액정 셀의 전극 구조를 제안하였다. 제안한 전극 구조의 결과를 확인하기 위해서 광학적 특성과 그리고 디렉터 모양의 계산은 'TechWiz LCD'라는 상용 시뮬레이터를 사용하였다. 보통 PVA 액정 셀의 투과율은 전극의 모양과 셀갭에 의해 크게 영향을 받는다. 본 논문에서 제안한 전극 구조의 게이트 라인과 데이터 라인 사이의 거리는 기존의 PVA 셀과 같다. 대신 전극의 끝단 (edge) 지역에서의 광손실을 줄이기 위하여 상층부 전극과 하층부 전극의 모양을 수정하였다. 결과를 비교하기 위하여 기존의 PVA 액정 셀과 제안한 PVA 액정 셀의 투과율을 비교하였다. 그 결과, 제안된 구조에 의해서 전극부근에서 발생하는 광학적 손실이 감소되는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다.

$RuO_2$ 박막을 전극으로 하여 Pt/Ti/Si 기판 위에 $RuO_2$ /LiPON/$RuO_2$의 다층 구조로 이루어진 전고상의 박막형 마이크로 슈퍼캐패시터를 제작하였다. 전극용 $RuO_2$박막은 반응성 dc 마그네트론 스퍼터를 이용하여 $O_2$/[Ar+$O_2$]비를 증가시키며 성장시켰고, 비정질 LiPON 고체전해질 박막은 순수한 질소분위기 하에서 rf 스퍼터링으로 성장시켰다. 상온에서의 충-방전 측정을 통해 $RuO_2$ 박막의 미세구조에 따라 슈퍼캐패시터의 사이클 특성이 영향을 받는 것을 알 수 있었다. Glancing angle x-ray diffraction(GXRD)과 transmission electron microscopy (TEM) 분석을 통해 산소 유량의 증가가 $RuO_2$박막의 미세 구조의 영향을 주는 것을 알 수 있었고, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) 분석을 통해 산소 유량 비의 증가가 Ru과 산소간의 결합에도 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다. 또한 사이클 후 슈퍼캐패시터의 TEM 및 AES depth profiling 분석을 통해, 충-방전 시 $RuO_2$와 LiPON과의 계면반응에 의해 형성된 계면 층이 사이클 특성에 영향을 줌을 알 수 있었다.

RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링방법으로 Pt/Ti/NON/Si 기판 위에 $Ba_{0.66}$$Sr_{0.38}$$TiO_{3}$(BST) 박막을 증착한 다음 유전 및 초전특성을 살펴보았다. BST 박막을 증착할 때 기판온도를 300~-$600^{\circ}C$로 변화시킨 결과 기판온도가 증가할수록 박막의 결정성과 입도가 증가하여 유전율과 초전계수가 증가하였다. 한편 하부전극인 Pt의 증착조건이 BST 박막의 몰성에 미치는 영향도 살펴보았다. Pt의 증착온도와 Pt의 미세구조와 결정성뿐만 아니라 상부에 형성된 BST 박막의 배향성에도 큰 영향을 미쳤으며, 그 결과 BST의 초전특성에도 큰 영향을 미쳤다. BST 박막과 Pt 하부전극의 증착조건을 적정화함으로써 본 연구에엇는 상온에서 초전계수가 240 $nCcm^{-2}K^{-1}$인 BST 박막을 얻었다.
