At first the $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_{3}$-MgO powder with $B_{2}O_{3}-Li_{2}CO_{3}$ were made by the Sol-Gel method. And then the thick films of BST-MgO with $B_{2}O_{3}-Li_{2}CO_{3}$ were fabricated on the $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrates coated with Pt by the screen printing method. The structural and dielectric properties of the BST-MgO thick film with $B_{2}O_{3}-Li_{2}CO_{3}$ addition were investigated. The structure of the BST-MgO with $B_{2}O_{3}-Li_{2}CO_{3}$ thick films were dense and homogeneous with no pores. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss were increased with decreasing the $B_{2}O_{3}-Li_{2}CO_{3}$ addition ratio.

The superconducting thin films have shown a growing possibility for practical application in microelectronic fields in recent years. In this study, the high Tc superconducting Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films were prepared on various substrates by chemical vapor deposition method using organic metal chelates of $Y(thd)_3$, $Ba(thd)_2$, and $Cu(thd)_2$ as source materials. The deposition reactions were carried out on single crystalline MgO(100), YSZ(100), $SrTiO_3(100)$, and polycrystalline $SrTiO_3$ substrates. Deposition thickness of thin films was linearly increased with the increase of deposition time. It turned out that the Y-Ba-Cu-O thin films on MgO(100), YSZ(100), and $SrTiO_3(100)$ single crystal substrates showed superconductivities above liquid nitrogen temperature($T_{c,onset}=87{\sim}89K$, $T_{c,zero}=85{\sim}86K$), but the one on polycrystalline $SrTiO_3$ substrate did not.

The killing effects of two types(one-phase reactor and two-phase reactor) of UV-TiO$_2$photocatalytic system on the microorganisms have been studied. The UV-lamp which emits maximum 39 watts at 254 nm was prepared in these system. Three types of $TiO_2$ coating method were adopted. One type is thin film coated form on the quartz tube in the reactor and another one is surface rough coated form on the glass bead. The other one is $TiO_2$-mixed alginate bead form. UV irradiation was carried out for 1 min. In case of one phase reactor, the bactericidal efficiencies of E. coli by $TiO_2$-coated quartz tube and $TiO_2$-coated glass bead were 63.2% and 89.9%, respectively. In the air-bubbling system, the bactericidal efficiency was 95%, however, the efficiency decreased to 90.6% in the non-bubbling system. In the $TiO_2$-mixed alginate bead system, bactericidal efficiency was 86%. When $H_2O$$_2$ was treated (10, 15, 20, and 25 mg/ι) to the $TiO_2$-coated glass bead reactor, bactericidal efficiency significantly increased according to the concentration of $H_2$$O_2$. Two phase reactor showed more elevated efficiency. E. coli was more sensitive to the reaction than S. cerevisiae.

The PLT thin films on MgO substrate have been fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering and the dependence of properties on fabrication conditions have been studied. The PbO-rich target was used and the optimum fabrication conditions of the PLT thin films were such that substrate temperature, working pressure, $Ar/O_{2}$ ratio, and rf power was $640^{\circ}C$, 10 mTorr, 10:1, and $1.7\;W/cm^{2}$, repectively. In these conditions, the PLT thin film showed the deposition rate of $62.5\;{\AA}/min$, the Pb/Ti ratio of 1/2, and the dielectric constant of 200. The PLT thin film showed good c-axis orientation and crystalinity according to XRD and SEM analysis.

Lanthanum aluminate($LaAlO_3$) film has been prepared on single crystal and metal substrates by dip coating method. Lanthanum acetate and aluminum were prepared via ligand exchange starting from lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate and aluminum nitrate hexahydrate in acetate glacial acetic acid solution after being refluxed. Coating solution was obtained by diluting the gel with methanol and 2-methoxyethanol to adjust the total cation concentration to 0.67 M. Precursor coated film was prepared by dip-coating with a speed of 25 mm/min on various substrates such as $LaAlO_3$ (001), MgO(001), $SrTiO_3$(001) single crystal, LMO/MgO/Ni-alloy. Thin films have been obtained by heat treating the precursor film at various temperatures from $600^{\circ}C{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ and various heating rate from $0.83^{\circ}C/min{\sim}1.25^{\circ}C/min$ under $Ar/O_2$ mixture containing 1000ppm oxygen. The films have been characterized by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). XRD analysis for the prepared film showed that $LaAlO_3$ thin films with a preferred orientation of (100) plane parallel to substrate surface were obtained at $800^{\circ}C(1.11\;^{\circ}C/min)$ on LMO/MgO/Ni-alloy substrate, but the intensity decreased with the increase of heat treatment temperature.

We have studied fabrication of $MgB_2$ thin film on $SrTiO_3$ (001) and r-cut $A1_2$$O_3$ substrates by rf magnetron sputtering method using and $ MgB_2$ single target and two targets of Mg and B, respectively. Based on P -T phase diagram of $MgB_2$ and vapor pressure curves of Mg and B, a three-step process was employed. B layer was deposited at the bottom to enhance the film adhesion to the substrate. Secondly, co-sputtering of Mg and B was done. Finally, Mg was sputtered on top to compensate fur the loss of Mg during annealing. Subsequently, $MgB_2$ films were in-situ annealed in various conditions. The sample fabricated using the three-step process showed $T_{c}$ of 24 K and formation of superconducting $MgB_2$ phase was confirmed by XRD spectra. In case of co-sputtering deposition, $T_{c}$ depended on annealing time and argon pressure. However, those made by single-target sputtering showed non-superconducting behavior or low transition temperature, at best.est.

Thin film technologies for fabricating SQUIDs involve etching and deposition procedures with the proper substrate materials and $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-d}$ (YBCO) as the high $T_c$ superconductor. YBCO were prepared on various substrates of MgO, $SrTiO_3$, and $LaAlO_3$ by using off-axis magnetron sputtering methods and annealing in-situ. The parameters of film fabrication processes had been optimized to yield good quality films in terms of the critical temperature $T_c$ and the critical current density $J_c$. The optimized processes yielded $T_C$>90K along with $J_c$>$10_6A$$extrm{cm}^2$ at 77K and>$2\times10_7A/Cm^2$ at 5K. We fabricated step-edge type dc-SQUIDs and directly coupled magnetometers, producing step edges on MgO(100) substrates by etching with Ar-ion beam, depositing YBCO material on them, then patterning them by using ion-milling technique. Circuitizing washer-shape SQUIDs to possess a pair of step-edge junctions of 2-5$\mu$ line width with a high angle>$50^{\circ}C$ , we examined their I-V characteristics thoroughly and Shapiro steps clearly as we irradiate microwaves of 8-20 GHz frequency.

The characteristics of heterogeneous photocatalytic decomposition were investigated at low concentration level of $O_3$on TiO$_2$for various operating parameters such as: loaded catalyst weight (0∼4 mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$), initial concentration of $O_3$(0.06∼10.0 ppm), gas flow rate (1.0 ∼ 2.5ι/min), and relative humidity (0∼80%). This study was conducted using a flow-type reactor at room temperature. Three kinds of pure TiO$_2$(P25, ST -01, and E- 23) were employed as photocatalyts. It was found that $O_3$removal ratio was identical, regardless of the loaded TiO$_2$weight in the range from 0.5 to 4.0 mg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. It was also found that higher initial ozone concentration results in greater oxidation rate of ozone and experimental data show kinetically a good agreement with Langmur-Hinshelwood kinetic model. We also observed that the removal ratio of $O_3$increases linearly with the increasing flow rate and also with the increasing relative humidity for each catalyst.

Characteristics of piezoelectric thick films prepared by screen printing method were investigated. The piezoelectric thick films were printed using Pb(Mg,Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$system. The lower electrodes were coated with various thickness of Ag-Pd by screen printing to investigate the effect as a diffusion barrier and deposited with Pt by sputtering on Ag-Pd. The ceramic paste was prepared by mixing powder and binder with various ratios using three roll miller.

In this study, we investigated that the resistance switching characteristics of Al-doped MgOx films with increasing Al doping concentration and increasing film thickness. The Al-doped MgOx based ReRAM devices with a TiN/Al-doped MgOx/Pt/Ti/SiO2 were fabricated on Si substrates. The 5 nm, 10 nm, and 15 nm thick Al-doped MgOx films were deposited by reactive dc magnetron co-sputtering at $300^{\circ}C$ and oxygen partial ratio of 60% (Ar: 16 sccm, O2: 24 sccm). Micro-structure of Al-doped MgOx films and atomic concentration were investigated by XRD and XPS, respectively. The Al-doped MgOx films showed set/reset resistance switching behavior at various Al doping concentrations. The process voltage of forming/set is decreased and whereas the initial current level is increased with decreasing thickness of Al-doped MgOx films. Besides, the initial current of Al-doped MgOx films is increased with increasing Al doping concentration in MgOx films. The change of resistance switching behavior depending on doping concentration was discussed in terms of concentration of non-lattice oxygen of Al-doped MgOx.
