In this paper, we deposited MgO buffer layer on p-type (100)Si substrate in the condition of substrate temperature 400$^{\circ}C$, working gas ratio Ar:O$_2$=80:20, RF Power 50W, working pressure 10mtorr, and the thickness of the film was about 300${\AA}$. Then we deposited Ba$\sub$0.5/Sr$\sub$0.5/TiO$_3$ thin film using RF Magnetron sputtering method on the MgO/Si substrate in various RF power of 25W, 50W, 75W. The film deposited in 50W showed the best crystalline from the XRD measurement. To know the electrical properties of the film, we manufactured Al/BSTMgO(300${\AA}$)/Si/Al structure capacitor. In the result of I-V measurement, The leakage current density of the capacitor was lower than 10$\^$-7/A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at the range of ${\pm}$150kV/cm. From C-V characteristics of the capacitor, can calculate the dielectric constant and it was 305. Finally we deposited BST thin film on bare Si substrate and (100)MgO substrate in the same deposition condition. From the comparate of the properties of these samples, we found the properties of BST thin film which deposited on MgO/Si substrate were better than on bare Si substrate and similar to on MgO substrate.

Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) films were deposited by RF reactive magnetron sputtering on non-alkali glass and single crystal MgO (100) substrate at substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$. Micro structures of $TiO_2$ films were investigated by XRD, FE-SEM, and Pole figure measurements. $TiO_2$ films deposited on glass substrate showed preferred orientation of anatase (101), whereas $TiO_2$ films deposited on the MgO single crystal substrate showed hetero-epitaxial anatase (100). $TiO_2$ film grown on MgO substrate showed higher photoctalytic activity than that of glass substrate.

The effect of MgO buffer layer on the structural properties of sputter-grown ZnO thin film was investigated. Sapphire (0001) and Si (100) substrate were used for the growth and MgO buffer layer was inserted between ZnO thin film and the substrate. X-ray diffraction pattern indicated that enhanced crystallinity in the ZnO thin film grown was achieved by inserting very thin MgO buffer layer, regardless of the substrate type. The strain in the ZnO thin film could also be controlled by the insertion of the MgO buffer layer, and tendency of the strain was strongly dependent on the substrate type.

A MgO layer is used as electrode protective film in the alternating current plasma display panel (AC PDP). The properties of MgO layer are thought to be one of the most important factors that affects the panel reliability through the firing voltage variation. In this study, we investigated the relations between the surface characteristics and e-beam evaporation process parameters such as deposition rate, temperature of substrate and distance between the MgO pellet and substrate. To produce the MgO layer of (200) crystal orientation, we suggest the high temperature of the substrate, the long distance between the pellet and substrate and the high deposition rate.

A study on the deposition and characterization of BaTiO3 thin films on MgO-buffered Si(100) substrates by sputtering was conducted. The MgO buffer layers were investigated as a function of deposition temperature. At lower substrate temperature, the MgO layers were not fully crystalline, but a crystallized MgO layer with (001) preferred orientation was obtained at the substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$. Partially (00ι) or (h00) textured BaTiO3 films were obtained on Si(100) with the MgO buffer layer grown at 700ι. While, randomly oriented BaTiO3 films with large-scale cracks on the surface were made without the MgO layer. The crystallographic orientation, morphology and electrical properties between the BaTiO3 films on Si with and without the MgO layer were compared using the BaTiO3 film on MgO(100) single crystal substrate as a reference system. Also the favorable role of the MgO layer as a buffer for growing of oriented BaTiO3 films on Si substrates was confirmed.

The substrate for pyroelectric IR sensor which has orientation similar to MgO single crystal was fabricated by depositing the MgO thin film on $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si. The MgO thin film was deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The c-axis orientation of PLT thin film deposited on Pt/MgO(100)/$Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si substrate was investigated. The MgO thin film deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ at a gas pressure of 30 mTorr with RF power of 160 W exhibited a good a-axis orientation. The PLT thin films deposited on these substrates also exhibited c-axis orientation similar to the PLT thin films deposited on MgO single crystal substrate.

MgO film was deposited on the glass substrate by the hollow cathode discharge ion plating method and the characteristics of the MgO thin film such as deposition rate, crystalline orientation, surface morphology and secondary electron coefficient were investigated. The deposition rate of MgO thin films were $430^{\sim}1270{\AA}$/min at various temperatures and biases. The crystalline orientation of the MgO thin film changed from (200) to (220) upon increasing the HCD current from 100A to 200A. These results indicated that the crystallin orientation of the MgO thin film was determined by the super-saturation ratio. The (200) peak decreased and the (220) peak increased as the substrate bias increased, while both peaks increased as the substrate temperature increased. The grain size increased as the substrate bias increased and the secondary electron emission coefficient increased as the substrate bias increased.

This paper deals with the relationships between MgO manufacturing condition and misfiring at low temperature. The characteristics of MgO are affected by substrate temperature and MgO deposition current. In this study. the. substrate temperature was varied from $100^{\circ}C$ to $200^{\circ}C$. And the MgO deposition current was varied from 5mA to 20mA. As a result. the misfiring at low temperature was decreased in the panels with substrate temperature $200^{\circ}C$ and MgO deposition current 5mA. These results may be explained that the higher substrate temperature and lower MgO deposition current makes the denser film formation.

The growth characteristics on the MgO thin films prepared by the e-beam evaporation method have been investigated. We observed the film of preferred orientation and surface morphology with various parameters such as substrate temperature, deposition rate on Si(100) and slide glass respectively. Consequently, it was shown that MgO(111) preferred orientation films can be obtained as the deposition rate was increased on Si(100) substrate. MgO(220) peak was found as the substrate temperature was increased. Whereas, in case of slide glass the orientation is changed from (200) to (111) by substrate temperature. Also we investigated the relationship between the film characteristics and the orientation of MgO thin films.

Thin films of magnesium oxide(MgO) were deposited on glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering method. The characteristics of MgO thin films were analyzed as a function of various deposition conditions such as substrate temperature, substrate self-bias, input power and pressure. As the substrate temperature and bias voltage were increased, the grain size of MgO thin film increased. XRD peaks of (111) and (222) direction became dominant, as the substrate bias voltage increases and temperature decreases.
