Ordered $L1_0$ to FePt nanoparticles are strong candidates for high density magnetic data storage media because the $L1_0$ phase FePt has a very high magnetocrystalline anisotropy $(K_u{\sim}6.6-10{\times}10^7erg/cm^3)$, high coercivity and chemical stability. In this study, the ordered $L1_0$ FePt nanoparticles were successfully fabricated by chemical vapor condensation process without a post-annealing process which causes severe particle growth and agglomeration. The $Fe_{50}Pt_{50}$ nanopowder was obtained when the mixing ratio of Fe(acac) and Pt(arac) was 2.5 : 1. And the synthesized FePt nanoparticles were very fine and spherical shape with a narrow size distribution. The average particle size of the powder tended to increase from 5 nm to 10 nm with increasing reaction temperature from $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. Characterisitcs of FePt nanopowder were investigated in terms of process parameters and microstructures.

The electrical properties of the GaN-based green light emitting diodes(LEDs) with the Mg-doped p-GaN layer activated in $N_2$ or $O_2$ ambient have been compared. For the $N_2$ -ambient activation the current-voltage behavior of LEDs has been found to be improved when the Mg dopants activation was performed in the higher temperature. However, for the $O_2$-ambient activation the current-voltage characteristic has been observed to be enhanced when the Mg dopants activation was carried out in the lower temperature. The minimum forward voltage at 20mA was obtained to be 4.8 V for LEDs with the p-GaN layer activated at $900^{\circ}C$ in the $N_2$ ambient and 4.5V for LEDs with the p-GaN layer treated at $700^{\circ}C$ in the $O_2$ambient, repectively. The forward voltage reduction of the LEDs treated in the $O_2$-ambient may be related to the oxygen co-doping of the p-GaN layer during the activation process. The $O_2$ -ambient activation process is useful for the enhancement of the LED performance as well as the fabrication process since this process can activate the Mg dopants in the low temperature.

In this paper, Ni Germanosilicide using Ni-Ta/Co/TiN is proposed to improve thermal stability. The sheet resistance of Ni Germanosilicide utilizing pure Ni increased dramatically after the post-silicidation annealing at $600^{\circ}C$ for 30min. However, using the proposed Ni-Ta/Co/TiN structure, low temperature silicidation and wide range of RTP process window were achieved.

In this study, we investigated the traits of the clad metals used in hot-rolled clad steel plates. We examined the sensitization and mechanical properties of STS 316 steel plate and carbon steel (A516) under the specific circumstances of post heat treatment and whether a weld was multilayered and thick or repeated because of repairs. The test conditions were as follows. The clad steel plates were butt-welded using FCAW/SAW, and the heat treatment was conducted at $625^{\circ}C$, for 80, 160, 320, 640, or 1280 min. The change in the corrosion resistance was evaluated in these specimens. In the case of the carbon steel (A516), as the heat treatment time increased, the annealing effect caused the tensile strength to decrease. The micro- hardness gradually increased and then decreased after 640 min. The elongation and contraction of the area increased gradually. An oxalic acid etch test and EPR test on STS316, a clad metal, showed a STEP structure and no sensitization. From the test results for the multi-layered and repair welds, it could be concluded that there is no effect on the corrosion resistance of clad metals. In summary, the purpose of this study was to suggest some considerations when developing on-site techniques and evaluate the sensitization of stainless steels.

n-type crystalline silicon wafers were passivated with intrinsic a-Si:H thin films on both sides using HWCVD. Minority carrier lifetime measurement was used to verify interface passivation properties between a-Si:H thin film and crystalline Si wafer. Thin film interface characteristics were investigated depending on $H_2/SiH_4$ ratio and hot wire deposition temperature. Vacuum annealing were processed after deposition a-Si:H thin films on both sides to investigate thermal effects from post process steps. We noticed the effect of interface passivation properties according to $H_2/SiH_4$ ratio and hot wire deposition temperature, and we had maximum point of minority carrier lifetime at H2/SiH4 10 ratio and $1600^{\circ}C$ wire temperature.

Effects of LPMOCVD process parameters on the properties of TiO2 thin film were investigated. Depositions were made in the range of temperature 300-67$0^{\circ}C$ with various TTIP(Titanium Tetraisopropoxide) concentrations by contrlling bubbler temperature(40-8$0^{\circ}C$) and/or flow rate(30-90 sccm). Post annealing treatments were carried out at 500-80$0^{\circ}C$ range in the air. Films deposited at 40$0^{\circ}C$ have denser morphology than those of films deposited at 50$0^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ due to slower deposition rate. Bubbler temperature can affect on the deposition rate in mass transfer controlled regime such as 50$0^{\circ}C$ or higher but not below 50$0^{\circ}C$ where surface reaction rate becomes important. On the contrary for films deposited above 50$0^{\circ}C$ flow rate can raise deposition rate but eventually saturate it at the 50 sccm and above due to retarded adhesion of decomposed species. But for films deposited at 40$0^{\circ}C$ deposition rate increases stadily with flow rate. As the film becomes more porous A(200) texture can not be developed and AnataselongrightarrowRutile transition kinetics increases.

We report on the effect of PET substrate preheating on the characteristics of the flexible and transparent indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode grown by a specially designed roll-to-roll sputtering system for touch panel applications. It was found that electrical and optical properties of the roll-to-roll sputter grown ITO film were critically dependent on the preheating of the PET substrate. In addition, the roll-to-roll sputter-grown ITO film after post annealing test at $140^{\circ}C$ for 90 min showed stable electrical and optical properties. The low sheet resistance and high optical transmittance of the ITO film grown on the preheated PET substrate demonstrate that the preheating process before ITO sputtering is one of the effective way to improve the characteristics of ITO/PET film. Furthermore, the superior flexibility of the ITO electrode grown on the preheated PET substrate indicates that the preheating treatment is a promising technique to obtain robust ITO/PET sample for touch panel applications.

In this paper, Ni-Co alloy was used to improve thermal stability of Ni Germanide. It was found that uniform germanide is obtained on epitaxial Ge-on-Si substrate by employing Ni-Co alloy. Moreover, neither agglomeration nor penetration is observed during post-germanidation annealing process. The thermal stability of Ni germanide using Ni-Co alloy is improved due to the less agglomeration of Germanide. Therefore, the proposed Ni-Co alloy is promising for highly thermal immune Ni germanide for nano scale Ge-MOSFETs technology.

The solid phase compositions and dielectric properties of silicon nitride ($SiN_x$) films prepared using the plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) technique at a low temperature ($200^{\circ}C$) were studied. Controlling the source gas mixing ratio, R = $[N_2]/[SiH_4]$, and the plasma power successfully produced both silicon-rich and nitrogen-rich compositions in the final films. The composition parameter, X, varied from 0.83 to 1.62. Depending on the film composition, the dielectric properties of the $SiN_x$ films also varied substantially. Silicon-rich silicon nitride (SRSN) films were obtained at a low plasma power and a low R. The photoluminescence (PL) spectra of these films revealed the existence of nano-sized silicon particles even in the absence of a post-annealing process. Nitrogen-rich silicon nitride (NRSN) films were obtained at a high plasma power and a high R. These films showed a fairly high dielectric constant ($\kappa$ = 7.1) and a suppressed hysteresis window in their capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics.

In this letter, We have investigated cell characteristics of the alloy FePt-NDs charge trapping memory capacitors with high-k $Al_2O_3$ dielectrics as a blocking oxide. The capacitance versus voltage (C-V) curves obtained from a representative MOS capacitor embedded with FePt-NDs synthesized by the post deposition annealing (PDA) treatment process exhibit the window of flat-band voltage shift, which indicates the presence of charge storages in the FePt-NDs. It is shown that NDs memory with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide has performance in large memory window and low leakage current when the diameter of ND is below 2 nm. Moreover, high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide increases the electric field across the tunnel oxide, while reducing the electric field across the blocking layer. From this result, this device can achieve lower P/E voltage and lower leakage current. As a result, a FePt-NDs device with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide obtained a~7V reduction in the programming voltages with 7.8 V memory.
