$CuInO_2$ 단일상은 합성조건이 매우 까다롭기 때문에 일반적인 고상법으로 얻기 힘든 것으로 알려저 있다. 투명전도성 $CuInO_2$ 박막을 증착하기 위하여 일반적인 고상법으로 Cu와 In의 비율이 1:1인 $Cu_2O-In_2O_3$ composite target 및 In 대신 Ca, Mg, Ti가 각각 1mol% 도핑된 target을 제작하였다. 제작된 각각의 composite target을 이용하여 pulsed laser deposition(PLD) 공정으로 투명전도성 $CuInO_2$ 박막을 증착하였다. Cu와 In이 1:1 인 $Cu_2O-In_2O_3$ composite target을 사용한 경우, 증착된 박막이 Cu와 In의 비율이 1:1인 c-axis 배향된 단일상의 $CuInO_2$ 박막임을 확인하였다.

Low resistivity interconnection and high-mobility channel are required to realize ultrahigh-definition LCDs such as 4k ${\times}$ 2k TVs. We evaluated fully Cu-based gate and Source/Drain interconnections, consisting of stacked pure-Cu/Cu-Mn layers for TFT-LCDs, and found the underlying Cu-Mn alloy film has superior adhesion to glass substrates and CVD-SiOx films. It was also confirmed that wet etching of the Cu/Cu-Mn films without residues and low contact resistance with both channel IGZO and pixel ITO films can be obtained. It is thus considered that the stacked Cu/Cu-Mn structure is one of candidates to replacing conventionally pure-Cu/refractory metal.

The microstructural properties and electrical characteristics of sputtering films deposited with a Cu-Ga target are analyzed. The Cu-Ga target is prepared using the cold spray process and shows generally uniform composition distributions, as suggested by secondary ion mass spectrometer (SIMS) data. Characteristics of the sputtered Cu-Ga films are investigated at three positions (top, center and bottom) of the Cu-Ga target by X-ray diffraction (XRD), SIMS, 4-point probe and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis methods. The results show that the Cu-Ga films are composed of hexagonal and unknown phases, and they have similar distributions of composition and resistivity at the top, center, and bottom regions of the Cu-Ga target. It demonstrates that these films have uniform properties regardless of the position on the Cu-Ga target. In conclusion, the cold spray process is expected to be a useful method for preparing sputter targets.

MoN-Cu thin films were prepared to achieve appropriate properties of high hardness and low friction coefficient, which could be applied to automobile engine parts for reducing energy consumption as well as solving wear problems. Composite thin films of MoN-Cu have been deposited by various processes using multiple targets such as Mo and Cu. However, those deposition with multiple targets revealed demerits such as difficulties in exact control of composition and homogeneous deposition. This study is aiming for suggesting an appropriate process to solve those problems. A single alloying target of Mo-Cu (10 at%) was prepared by powder metallurgy methods of mechanical alloying (MA) and spar plasma sintering (SPS). Thin film of MoN-Cu was then deposited by magnetron sputtering using the single alloying target of Mo-Cu (10 at%). Properties of the resulting MoN-Cu thin film were examined and compared to those of MoN-Cu thin films prepared with double targets of Mo and Cu.

This study attempted to manufacture a Cu-Ga coating layer via the cold spray process and to investigate the applicability of the layer as a sputtering target material. In addition, changes made to the microstructure and properties of the layer due to annealing heat treatment were evaluated, compared, and analyzed. The results showed that coating layers with a thickness of 520 mm could be manufactured via the cold spray process under optimal conditions. With the Cu-Ga coating layer, the ${\alpha}$-Cu and $Cu_3Ga$ were found to exist inside the layer regardless of annealing heat treatment. The microstructure that was minute and inhomogeneous prior to thermal treatment changed to homogeneous and dense with a more clear division of phases. A sputtering test was actually conducted using the sputtering target Cu-Ga coating layer (~2 mm thickness) that was additionally manufactured via the cold-spray coating process. Consequently, this test result confirmed that the cold sprayed Cu-Ga coating layer may be applied as a sputtering target material.

A variety of target configurations in sputtering process have been proposed to deposit various structures of thin film alloys and compound films. In this study, we presented the comparative experimental results regarding to the characterization of properties of Cu-Ni thin films deposited by using a magnetron co-sputtering method, as a function of target configurations; one is using a single target with varying the area of Ni chips attached on the Cu target and another is using a dual-type target with two targets of Ni and Cu separated each other. Structural(d-spacing, crystal orientation, crystallite size, cross-sectional morphology) and electrical(resistivity) properties of deposited films are characterized and compared as a function of target configurations as well as deposition conditions.

⁶¹Cu is a promising PET radiometal having favorable nuclear decay characteristics with appropriate half-life of 3.3 h. Owing its promising capabilities in radiopharmaceutical chemistry and its chemical similarities with its isotopes ⁶⁴Cu and ⁶⁷Cu, in this work we have tried to optimize the production and separation conditions of ⁶¹Cu. ⁶¹Cu was produced via (p, x) reaction with natural nickel which was electroplated on the high purity silver coated copper backing target holder. The optimization of target electrodeposition, beam energy and current modulation, target dissolution and separation were optimized in this study. Preliminary studies show that ⁶¹Cu was successfully produced and separated which can be further extended for the production of ⁶⁴Cu and ⁶⁷Cu.

Structural properties of Cu-Ni alloy films, such as preferred orientation, crystallite size, in-ter-planar spacing, cross-sectional morphology, and electrical resistivity, are investigated in terms of tar-get configurations that are used in the film deposition by means of magnetron co-sputtering. Two different target configurations are considered in this study: a dual-type configuration in which two separate tar-gets (Cu and Ni) and different bias types (RF and DC) are used and a Ni-on-Cu type configuration in which Ni chips are attached to a Cu target. The dual-type configuration appears to have some advantages over the Ni-on-Cu type regarding the accurate control of atomic composition of the deposited Cu-Ni alloy. However, the dual-type-produced film exhibits a porous and columnar structure, the relatively large internal stress, and the high electrical resistivity, which are mainly due to the relatively low mobility of adatoms. The affects of thermal treatment and deposition conditions on the structural and electrical properties of dual-type Cu-Ni films are also discussed.

We measured thin films thickness sputtered from Cu target in the magnetron sputter system. Thin films thickness is thin as integration power in target is large. Cu thin films thickness in 100 kWh integration watt was decreased by 20% when that of beginning was compared. But the shape of thin films thickness distribution was same. For the calculation of thin films thickness distribution in the 100 kWh, the angular distribution data sputtered of Cu particles is necessary when Ar ions enter to inclined erosion surface of Cu target. We used the relation results of sputter yield and main angular distribution of sputtering particles emitted from Cu target published by G. Betz.

In this study, it has been tried to make the single Mo-Cu alloying targets with the Cu showing the best surface hardness that was determined by investigation on the coatings with the double target process. The single alloying targets were prepared by powder metallurgy methods such as mechanical alloying and spark plasma sintering. The nanocomposite coatings were prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering process with the single alloying targets in $Ar+N_2$ atmosphere. The microstructure changes of the Mo-Cu-N coatings with diverse Cu contents were investigated by using XRD, SEM and EDS. The mechanical properties of the coatings were evaluated by using nano-indentor, scratch test, and ball on disc methods. Especially, the coated samples were tested by using various lubricating oil to compare the property of anti wear-resistance. In this study, the nano-composite MoN-Cu coatings prepared using an alloying target was eventually compared with the coatings from the multiple targets.
