The effects of post annealing temperature by the Rapid Thermal Annealing(RTA) on the electrical properties of Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$(PZT) thin film were investigated. Analyses by the RTA treatments reveled that the leakage current of PZT thin films strongly depend on heating temperature and time. It was found that leakage current properties of PZT capacitor were changed by heating temperature during the RTA annealing. On Pt/Ti/Si substrates, PZT films are deposited at 350 $^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering. The X-ray diffusion (XRD) was confirmed the formation of PZT thin film. Leakage current characteristics were improved with decreasing the post annealing temperature of PZT thin film. RTA annealed film on the 700$^{\circ}C$ shows ferroelectric and electrical properties with a remanent polarization of 12.4${\mu}$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ coercive field of 117kV/cm, leakage current J= 6.2${\times}$10$\^$-6/ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$

To investigate the possibility of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer as the insulator for the Metal-Ferroelectric-Insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) structure, $ZrO_2$ and $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) thin films were deposited on the P-type Si(111) wafer by the R.F. magnetron-sputtering method. According to the process with and without the post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer and SBT thin film, the diffusion amount of Sr, Bi, Ta elements show slight difference through the Glow Discharge Spectrometer (GDS) analysis. From X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) results, we could confirm that the post-annealing process affects the chemical binding condition of the interface between the $ZrO_2$ thin film and the Si substrate. Compared to the MFIS structure without the post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer, memory window value of MFlS structure with post-annealing of the $ZrO_2$ buffer layer were considerably improved. The window memory of the Pt/SBT (260 nm, $800^{\circ}C)/ZrO_2$ (20 nm) structure increases from 0.75 to 2.2 V under the applied voltage of 9 V after post-annealing.

The structural and electrical properties of titanium dioxide(TiO2) thin films deposited on p-type (100) si and 4$^{\circ}$off(100) Si substartes by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) have been studied with post rapid thermal annealing. TiO2 thin films of anatase phase were grown at 300-500$^{\circ}C$ using titanium post rapid thermal annealing at a temperature of 800$^{\circ}C$ for 30sec. rutile phase was observed in the condition of the deposition temperature over 350$^{\circ}C$ in the ambient air atmosphere and at 500$^{\circ}C$ in cacuu,. SEM and AFM study show-ed surface roughness were increased slightly from 40${\AA}$to 55${\AA}$ after annealing due to grain growth and phase transformation. From capacitane-voltage measurement of Al/TiO2./p-Si structure after annealing we obtained ideal capacitance-voltage characteristics of MOS structure with dielectric constant of 16-22 in case of (100) Si and about 30- in case of 4$^{\circ}$off(100) Si but showed the higher leakage current.

In order to investigate the effect of tail state on the electrical and the optical properties in amorphous IGZO(a-IGZO), a-IGZO films were deposited at room temperature on fused silica substrats using pulsed laser deposition method. The laser pulse energy was used as the processing parameter. In-situ post annealing was carried out at $150^{\circ}C$ right after the film deposition. The $O_2$ partial pressure during the deposition and the post annealing was fixed to 10mTorr. The carrier mobility of the a-IGZO films had a range from 2 to $18\;cm^2/Vs$ at carrier concentrations greater than $10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$. As the laser energy density increased, the Hall mobility increased. And post annealing improved the Hall mobility, as well. The optical property was examined using the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy. The a-IGZO films that have low Hall mobility exhibited stronger and broader absorption tails in >3.0 eV region. Post annealing reduced the intensity of the tail-like absorption. The absorption tail in a-IGZO films is an important factor which affects the electrical and the optical properties.

Blue emitting CaWO$_4$ thin films were deposited by rf magnetron sputtering. The effect of sputtering parameters and annealing conditions on the luminescent properties were investigated. Structural and stoichiometric properties of thin films were affected by $O_2$/Ar gas ratio and substrate temperature. Post-annealing caused the phosphor thin films to emit improved luminescent properties. The atomic composition of films might depend on annealing atmosphere, which resulted in the changes of luminescent properties. Blue-green emission that was due to oxygen vacancies was observed. However, by controlling oxygen defects, only blue emission could be obtained.

The effect of various post-annealing temperature to sputtered Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$ (PZT) thin films was investigated. The crystallization process, surface morphology and the electrical characteristics strongly depends on the rapid thermal annealing (RTA). In radio frequency (RF) sputtering methods, there were many papers mostly forcing on the crystal forming and the surface variations with different elements distribution (Pb, Ti, Zr, O) on the surface of the PZT layer. In this experiment, the post-annealing treatment promoted the Pb volatilization in PZT thin film and affected the Ti diffused throughout the Pt layer into the PZT layer. Second ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) analysis was employed to show that the Pb element in the PZT layer was decreased at the same time the Ti element mass was slight decreased than Pb with increasing RTA temperature. That result prove the content of Pb affect the PZT thin film property.

$1.5\;{\mu}m$-thick copper films deposited on silicon wafers were successfully bonded at $415^{\circ}C$/25 kN for 40 minutes in a thermo-compression bonding method that did not involve a pre-cleaning or pre-annealing process. The original copper bonding interface disappeared and showed a homogeneous microstructure with few voids at the original bonding interface. Quantitative interfacial adhesion energies were greater than $10.4\;J/m^2$ as measured via a four-point bending test. Post-bonding annealing at a temperature that was less than $300^{\circ}C$ had only a slight effect on the bonding energy, whereas an oxygen environment significantly deteriorated the bonding energy over $400^{\circ}C$. This was most likely due to the fast growth of brittle interfacial oxides. Therefore, the annealing environment and temperature conditions greatly affect the interfacial bonding energy and reliability in Cu-Cu bonded wafer stacks.

The PZT thin films were deposited on Si(100) substrate using RF magnetron sputtering method. And the PZT thin films were post annealed at various temperatures to form perovskite phase. To analyze PZT thin films, surface profiler, XRD, XPS, CA, and SFE were used. The thickness increased from 536.5 to 833.2 nm as post annealing temperature increased. The perovskite PZT was observed from PZT-823 and pyrochlore PZT, $ZrO_2$, $TiO_2$, and perovskite $PbZrO_3$ were observed. From the XPS, the atomic percentages of Pb, Zr, Ti, and O were calculated and the portion of Pb increased to PZT-823 and decreased to PZT-923 and then increased to PZT-1023. Also, the CA and SFE was effected on post annealing temperature and as a function of atomic percentage of Pb, the CA and SFE was transformed.
