  • Niobium oxide($Nb_2O_5$) films were deposited on p-type Si wafers at room temperature using in-line pulsed-DC magnetron sputtering system with various frequencies. The different duty ratios were obtained by varying the frequency of pulsed DC power from 100 to 300 kHz at the fixed reverse time of $1.5{\mu}s$. From the thickness of the sputtered $NbO_x$ films, it was possible to obtain much higher deposition rate in case of pulsed-DC sputtering than RF sputtering. However, the similar leakage currents and structural characteristics were obtained from the metal-insulator-semiconductor(MIS) structure fabricated with the $NbO_x$ films and the x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) results in spite of the different deposition rates. From the experimental results, the $NbO_x$ films sputtered by pulsed-DC sputtering are expected to be used in the fabrication process instead of RF sputtering.

  • Deposition of thin films using magnetron sputtering plasmas is a well-developed, classical technology. However, detailed investigations using advanced diagnostics are insufficient in magnetron sputtering, in comparison with plasma-aided dry etching and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition. In this talk, we will show examples of diagnostic works on magnetron sputtering employing metal targets. Diagnostic methods which have fine spatial resolutions are suitable for magnetron sputtering plasmas since they have significant spatial distributions. We are using two-dimensional laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy, in which the plasma space is illuminated by a tunable laser beam with a planer shape. A charge-coupled device camera with a gated image intensifier is used for taking the picture of the image of laser-induced fluorescence formed on the planer laser beam. The picture of laser-induced fluorescence directly represents the two-dimensional distribution of the atom density probed by the tunable laser beam, when an intense laser with a relatively wide line-width is used. When a weak laser beam with a relatively narrow linewidth is used, the laser-induced fluorescence represents the density distribution of atoms which feel the laser wavelength to be resonant via the Doppler shift corresponding to their velocities. In this case, we can obtain the velocity distribution function of atoms by scanning the wavelength of the laser beam around the line center.

  • Al-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films have been fabricated by vertical in-line dc magnetron sputtering for transparent conducting oxides (TCOs) applications. The effects of substrate temperature and dc power on the characteristics of AZO thin films are investigated and also optimized the process conditions to get the best electrical and optical properties. The fabricated thin films show a good electrical and optical uniformity within ${\pm}5%$ over the whole area of substrate ($200mm\;{\times}\;200mm$) ; the minimum resistivity of $8\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;{\Omega}cm$ and the average transmittance of 90% within the visible wavelength range. We have found that the band gap ($E_g$) increases with increasing substrate temperature and dc power, whereas the crystallinity is getting improved with increasing substrate temperature. The binding energy of Zn $2p_{3/2}$ and O 1s is observed to decrease as the substrate temperature increases.

  • 태양전지용 투명전도막에 사용되는 Al-doped ZnO (AZO) 막은 저가이면서도 가시광역 영역에서 갖는 우수한 투과율과 낮은 비저항을 갖는 특성 때문에 ITO의 대체 재료로서 최근 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 특히, 양산 현장에서는 in-line type의 대형 sputtering system에서 증착하고 있으며 높은 증착 속도와 박막 특성의 균일도가 중요한 과제다. 본 연구에서는 $2\;m\;{\times}\;1\;m\;{\times}\;0.2\;m$의 sputtering system에서 기판 캐리어를 이용해서 커다란 기판을 좁고 긴 타겟의 양쪽으로 왕복 운동을 하는 swing dynamic deposition 방법으로 $272\;mm\;{\times}\;500\;mm$ 크기의 AZO target (Al 2 wt%)을 이용하여 bipolar pulsed dc로 증착하였다. 이 시스템의 배기는 TMP와 cryo pump를 이용해서 $5\;{\times}\;10^{-7}\;Torr$의 기본 진공도를 얻으며, 공정 중에는 TMP만 사용하였다. 하지만, 본 시스템의 TMP는 비대칭 적으로 한쪽에 치우쳐 설치되어 있는데, 이것이 챔버 내에서 공정 가스인 Ar의 유동의 불균일도를 초래하게 되며, 그것이 증착되는 박막의 두께 균일도 및 특성 균일도에 영향을 주고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 다른 기본 진공도에서 증착된 AZO 박막의 특성 차이를 알아보고 비대칭 배기 구조가 in-line type 시스템에서 어떠한 두께 및 특성 불균일도를 가져오는지, 그리고 시스템 내부에 발생시키는 압력 불균일도를 상용 3차원 전산 유체해석 프로그램인 CFD-ACE+를 이용하여 분석하였다.

  • Recently low resistance of gate line or data line is required for large screen size TFT-LCD panels. As a result, lower resistance Al-alloy is currently reviewed extensively and the resistivity is required smaller than 10$\mu\Omega$cm. In this paper, Al-Nd and Al-Zr thin film were deposited on glass substrated by D.C. magnetron sputtering system under various condition. Its properties were characterized by SEM, AFM, XRD and 4-point-probe. The optimal condition was $120^{\circ}C$, 125W, 0.4Pa, 30sccm (Ar) and $350^{\circ}C$, 20min. annealing. At that condition the resistivity of Al-Zr(0.9%wt.) is about 4$\mu\Omega$cm.

  • 본 연구에서는 인라인 스퍼터링 공정을 이용하여 저항막 방식 터치패널에 적용이 가능한 인듐 주석 산화물(indium tin oxide: ITO)기판 제조 공정을 최적화하였다. 플라스틱 기판으로 고분자 기판인 폴리카보네이트(polycarbonate : PC) 기판을 사용하였으며 면저항 $500{\pm}50\;{\Omega}$/□, 면저항 균일도 10 % 이내, 투과율 87 %(at550nm)이상, 두께 $120{\sim}250\;{\AA}$의 조건을 만족하는 ITO 기판의 공정 최적화를 위한 실험을 진행하였다. 스퍼터링 공정은 초기 진공도 $1{\times}10^{-6}\;torr$ 일 때 상온에서 DC 전압을 인가하여 진행되었으며 산소/알곤 가스의 비율, 인가 전압, 공정 압력, 기판의 이송 속도를 변수로 하여 요구되는 ITO 박막의 특성에 가장 최적화된 공정 조건을 형성하였다. 인라인 방식의 스퍼터 장비에서 최적화된 공정 조건은 실제 생산 라인에 적용이 가능할 것으로 판단되며 향후 지속적인 연구를 통해 현재 수입에 의존하고 있는 ITO 기판 제조기술의 국산화에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

  • In this study, optical emission spectroscopy was used to monitor the plasma produced during the RF magnetron sputtering of a $BaTiO_3$ target. The intensities of chemical species were measured by real time monitoring with various discharge parameters such as RF power, pressure, and discharge gas. The emission lines of elemental and ionized species from $BaTiO_3$ and Ti targets were analyzed to evaluate the film composition and the optimized growth conditions for $BaTiO_3$ films. The emissions from Ar(I, II), Ba(I, II) and Ti(I) were found during sputtering of the $BaTiO_3$ target in Ar atmosphere. With increasing RF power, all the line intensities increased because the electron density increased with increasing RF power. When the Ar pressure increased, the Ba(II) and Ti(I) line intensity increased, but the $Ar^+$ line intensity decreased with increasing pressure. This result shows that high pressure is of greater benefit for the ionization of Ba than for that of Ar. Oxygen depressed the intensity of the plasma more than Ar did. When the Ar/$O_2$ ratio decreased, the intensity of Ba decreased more sharply than that of Ti. This result indicates that the plasma composition strongly depends on the discharge gas atmosphere. When the oxygen increased, the Ba/Ti ratio and the thickness of the films decreased. The emission spectra showed consistent variation with applied power to the Ti target during co-sputtering of the $BaTiO_3$ and Ti targets. The co-sputtered films showed a Ba/Ti ratio of 1.05 to 0.73 with applied power to the Ti target. The films with different Ba/Ti ratios showed changes in grain size. Ti excess films annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ did not show the second phase such as $BaTi_2O_5$ and $TiO_2$.

  • Niobium nitride (NbN) superconducting thin films with the thickness of 100 and 400 nm have been deposited on the surfaces of silicon oxide/silicon substrates using a sputtering method. Their superconducting properties have been evaluated in terms of the transition temperature, critical magnetic field, and critical current density. In addition, the NbN films were patterned in a line with a width of $10{\mu}m$ by a reactive ion etching (RIE) process for their characterization. This study proves the applicability of the standard complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) process in the fabrication of superconducting thin films without considerable degradation of superconducting properties.
