Conducting diamond-like carbon films are synthesized using Triode Magnetron Sputtering-Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition(TMS-PECVD), and are examined by four point probe, microhardeness tester, and scanning electron miscroscopy(SEM). As the target bias and Ar/CH$_4$, ratio increase, the electrical resitivity and microhardness of the films are found to decrease, and also, their surface morphologies tend to be rough. While the resistivities of the films are shown to increase in proportion to the increase of the substrate bias, the microhardness of the films is shown to be maximun value(1600kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$) at a certain substrate bias(-70V). We can obtain the conducting diamond-like carbon films with the microhardness of 1600(kg/$\textrm{mm}^2$) and electrical resitivity of 16($\Omega$cm) at the process condition such as target bias -400V, substrate bias -70V, and Ar/$CH_4$ ratio 20.

In this study, AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film were prepared by FTS(Facing Target Sputtering) system. The electrical, optical properties and crystalline of AZO thin film with thickness have been investigated. The thickness, transmittance, crystalline and electrical properties of AZO thin film were measured by a-step, UV-VIS spectrometer, hall effect measurement system, XRD and four-point probe, respectively. As a result, AZO thin film deposited with the transmittance over 80% and the resistivity about $10^{-4}\;\Omega-cm$.

In this study, in order to investigate how consecutive treatments of glass surface with HF acid and water vapor/Ar plasma affect the quality of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane self-assembled monolayer (APS-SAM), poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) thin films were vapor phase-polymerized immediately after spin coating of FeCl3 and poly-urethane diol-mixed oxidant solution on the monolayer surfaces prepared at various treatment conditions. For the film characterization, various poweful tools were used, e.g., FE-SEM, an optical microscope, four point probe, and a contact angle analyzer. The characterization revealed that HF treatment is not desirable for the synthesis of a high quality PEDOT thin film via vapor phase polymerization method. Rather, sole treatment with plasma noticeably improved the quality of APS-SAM on glass surface. As a result, a highly dense and smooth PEDOT thin film was grown on uniform oxidant film-coated APS monolayer surface.

Transparent electrode ZnO:Al(AZO)films were deposited on a PES (polyethersulfone) polymer substrate for thin film solar cells applications. A PES substrate with a thickness of 0.2mm and transmittance > 90% in the visible range was used because it is light weight and can deform easily. AZO thin films were prepared at a fixed DC power, $PO_2\;=\;P(O_2)/[P(O_2)\;+\;P(Ar)]$, and various substrate temperatures. The properties of AZO thin films were examined by X-ray diffraction, UV/VIS spectroscopy, four-point probe, Hall measurements, and field emission scanning electron microscopy. The lowest resistivity of all the films was $4.493\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;[\Omega-cm]$ and the transmittance was > 80% in the visible range.

In this study, we prepared sputtering cathode for large sputtering thin film in the facing targets sputtering(FTS) system. Before fabrication of cathode equipment, we investigated optimal magnetic flux in the sputtering cathode by using magnetic field stimulation(Comsol). According to the result of magnetic field stimulation, we manufactured the cathode. After we mounted laboratory-designed cathode on FTS system, the discharge properties were observed in vacuum condition. In addition, ITO films were deposited on glass substrate and their electrical and optical properties were investigated by various measurements (four-point probe, UV-VIS spectrometer, field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM), Hall-effect measurement).

A simple method to deposit carbon nanotube films uniformly on large area substrates using an arc discharge method is reported in this paper. The arc discharge method was modified to deposit carbon nanotube films in situ on the substrates. The substrates were scanned several times over the arcing point for a uniform film thickness. Deposition was carried out under variable dc bias conditions at 600 torr of $H_2$ gas. The thickness uniformity of the single-wall carbon nanotube films as characterized by a four-point probe was within 30% deviation. The morphology and crystal quality of the single-wall carbon nanotube film were also characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy.

This study reports an alternative method for measuring the magnetoresistance of unpatterned magnetic tunnel junctions similar to the current-in-plane tunneling (CIPT) method. Instead of using microprobes, a series of point contacts with different spacings are coated on the top surface of the junctions and R-H loops at various spacings are then measured by the usual four-point probe method. The values of magnetoresistance and resistance-area products can be obtained by fitting the measured data to the CIPT theoretical model. The test results of two types of junctions were highly similar to those obtained from standard CIPT tools. The proposed method may help to accelerate the process for evaluating the quality of magnetic tunnel junctions when commercial CIPT tools are not accessible.

반도체 메모리 소자의 스피드 향상을 위해 저저항 배선층을 채용하는 방안으로 70 nm-두께의 아몰퍼스실리콘과 폴리실리콘 기판부에 $TiSi_2$ 타켓으로 각각 80 nm 두께의 TiSix 복합실리콘을 스퍼터링으로 증착한 후 RTA $800^{\circ}C$-20sec 조건으로 실리사이드화 처리하고 사진식각법으로 선폭 $0.5{\mu}m$의 배선층을 만들었다. 배선층에 대해 다시 각각 $750^{\circ}C-3hr,\;850^{\circ}C-3hr$의 부가적인 안정화 열처리를 실시하였으며, 이때의 면저항의 변화는 four-point probe로 실리사이드층의 미세구조와 수직단면 두께 변화를 주사전자현미경과 투과전자현미경으로 관찰하였다. 아몰퍼스실리콘 기판인 경우 후속열처리에 따른 결정화 진행과 함께 급격한 면저항의 증가가 확인되었고, 이 원인은 결정화 과정에서 실리콘과 복합티타늄실리사이드 층과의 상호확산으로 표면 공공(void)을 형성한 것으로 미세구조 관찰에서 확인되었다. 따라서 복합티타늄실리사이드의 하지층의 종류와 열처리 조건을 바꾸어 저저항 또는 고저항 실리사이드를 조절하여 제작하는 것이 가능하여 복합 $TiSi_2$를 저저항 배선층 재료로 채용할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
