본 연구에서는 DC bias가 인가된 유도결합형 플라즈마 열선 화학기상증착법을 이용하여 580$^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 탄소나노튜브를 수직 배향시켰다. 성장된 탄소나노튜브의 기판으로는 강화유리 위에 촉매층으로 Ni과 전도층으로 Cr을 300/200 ${\AA}$(Ni/Cr) 증착된 것으로 R-F magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 제작하였다. 성장 시 RF power와 DC bias power는 150W와 80W이며 텅스텐 필라멘트 power는 7∼8 A로 인가하였다. 성장된 탄소나노튜브는 속이 비어 있는 다중벽으로 이루어 졌으며 성장된 탄소나노튜브 끝단에는 금속 촉매로 보이는 Ni이 존재하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 탄소나노튜브는 흑연화도가 우수하며 그에 따라 탄소나노튜브의 전계 방출 특성도 우수하게 평가되었다. 성장된 탄소나노튜브의 구동 전압은 약 3 V/${\mu}m$이었다.

Aluminium doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) thin film has emerged as one of the most promising transparent conducting electrode in flat panel displays(FPD) and in photovoltaic devices since it is inexpensive, mechanically stable, and highly resistant to deoxidation. In this paper ZnO:Al thin film was deposited on the polyethylene terephthalate(PET) substrate by the capacitively coupled r.f. magnetron sputtering method. Wide ranges of bias voltage, -30V${\sim}$45V, was applied to the growing films as an additional energy instead of substrate heating, and the effect of positive and negative bias on the film structure and electrical properties of ZnO:Al films was studied and discussed. The results showed that a bias applied to the substrate during sputtering contributed to the improvement of electrical properties of the film by attracting ions and electrons in the plasma to bombard the growing films. These bombardments provided additional energy to the growing ZnO film on the substrate, resulting in significant variations in film structure and electrical properties. The film deposited on the PET substrate at r. f. discharge power of 200 W showed the minimum resistivity of about $2.4{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}-cm$ and a transmittance of about 87%.

Ni oxide thin films were formed through annealing treatment in the atmosphere after Ni thin films deposited by a r.f. magnetron sputtering method and then electric and material properties were analyzed for application to thermal sensors. Resistivity of Ni thin films decreased after annealing treatment at 30$0^{\circ}C$ and 40$0^{\circ}C$ for five hours due to crystallization of Ni thin films but the value increased over 45$0^{\circ}C$ because of Ni thin film's oxidation. Resistivity values of Ni thin films were in the range of 10.5 $\mu$Ωcm/$^{\circ}C$ to 2.84${\times}$10$^4$$\mu$Ωcm/$^{\circ}C$ according to the degree of Ni oxidation. Also temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR) values of Ni oxide thin films depended on the degree of Ni oxidation such as 2,188 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ to 5,630 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ in the temperature range of 0 $^{\circ}C$∼150 $^{\circ}C$. The results demonstrate that Ni oxide thin films of annealing treatment at 40$0^{\circ}C$ for 5hours could be more advantageous than pure Ni thin films and Pt thin films from a point of output properties and TCR, applied to thermal sensors.

$TiO_2$ thin films for high energy density capacitors were prepared by r.f. magnetron sputtering at room temperature. Flexible PET (Polyethylene terephtalate) substrate was used to maintain the structure of the commercial film capacitors. The effects of deposition pressure on the crystallization and electrical properties of $TiO_2$ films were investigated. The crystal structure of $TiO_2$ films deposited on PET substrate at room temperature was unrelated to deposition pressure and showed an amorphous structure unlike that of films on Si substrate. The grain size and surface roughness of films decreased with increasing deposition pressure due to the difference of mean free path. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed the formation of chemically stable $TiO_2$ films. The dielectric constant of $TiO_2$ films was significantly changed with deposition pressure. $TiO_2$ films deposited at low pressure showed high dissipation factor due to the surface microstructure. The dielectric constant and dissipation factor of films deposited at 70 mTorr were found to be 100~120 and 0.83 at 1 kHz, respectively. The temperature dependence of the capacitance of $TiO_2$ films showed the properties of class I ceramic capacitors. $TiO_2$ films deposited at 10~30 mTorr showed dielectric breakdown at applied voltage of 7 V. However, the films of 500~300 nm thickness deposited at 50 and 70 mTorr showed a leakage current of ${\sim}10^{-8}{\sim}10^{-9}$ A at 100 V.

Ferroelectric properties of{{{{ { { { {SrBi }_{2 }Ta }_{2-x }Nb }_{x }O }_{9 } }} (SBIN) thin films were affected by the amount of Bi content in SBTN. The addition of Bi into the SBTN films could be accomplished by heat treating SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN het-erostructures fabricated by r.f. magnetron sputtering method. The variation of Bi content was controlled by changing the thickness of the sandwiched Bi2O3 in SBTN/Bi2O3/SBTN heterostructure from 50 to 400$\AA$. As changing the thickness of the sandwiched Bi2O3 in Bi2O3 films was increased from 0 to 100$\AA$ the grain grew faster and the ferroelectric pro-perties were improved. On the other hand when the thickness of Bi2O3 films was thicker than 150$\AA$ the fer-roelectric properties were deteriorated Especially for SBTN thin films inserted by 400$\AA$ Bi2O3 layer a Bi2Phase appeared as a second phase resulting in poor ferroelectric properties. The maximum remanent po-larization (2Pr) and coercive field(Ec) were obtained for the SBTN/Bi2O3/(100$\AA$)/SBTN thin films. In this case 2Pr and Ec were 14.75 $\mu$C/cm2 and 53.4kV/cm at an applied voltage of 3V respectively.

A layer of $TiO_2$ thin film less than ~200nm in thickness, as a blocking layer, was deposited by 13.56 MHz radio frequency magnetron sputtering method directly onto the anode electrode to be isolated from the electrolyte in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs). This is to prevent the electrons from back-transferring from the electrode to the electrolyte ($I^-/{I_3}^-$). The presented DSCs were fabricated with working electrode of F:$SnO_2$(FTO) glass coated with blocking $TiO_2$ layer, dye-attached nanoporous $TiO_2$ layer, gel electrolyte and counter electrode of Pt-deposited FTO glass. The effects of blocking layer were studied with respect to impedance and conversion efficiency of the cells. The, electrochemical impedances of DSCs using this electrode were $R_1$: 13.9, $R_2$: 15.0, $R_3$: 10.9 and $R_h$: $82{\Omega}$. The $R_2$ impedance related by electron movement from nanoporous $TiO_2$ to TCO showed lower than that of normal DSCs. The photo-conversion efficiency of prepared DSCs was 5.97% ($V_{oc}$: 0.75V, $J_{sc}$: 10.5 mA/$cm^2$, ff: 0.75) and approximately 1% higher than general DSCs sample.

In this study, two kinds of barium strontium titanate (BST) samples were prepared. One is a conventional BST film that is sputtered in a mixture of argon and oxygen. The other is a nitrogen-incorporated BST film that is sputtered in a mixture of oxygen and intentionally added nitrogen instead of argon gas. The structural properties of both of the BST films had not changed significantly with the species of sputtering gas. However, the leakage current of BST films sputtered at ($N_2$+O$_2$) atmosphere was lower than those sputtered at (Ar +O$_2$) atmosphere: 1.9$\times$10$^{-8}$ A/cm$^2$ at 2V for the films prepared at (Ar +O$_2$) atmosphere and 8.6$\times$10$^{-9}$ A/cm$^2$ for the films at ($N_2$+O$_2$) atmosphere. From an XPS analysis, it has been found that nitrogen atoms are incorporated in BST films with a concentration of 1.92 at% and form a certain oxynitride phase. It is proposed that nitrogen atoms are able to fill the oxygen vacancies of BST films during sputtering process, and then the leakage current reduces due to a decrease in the vacancies. The BST films sputtered at ($N_2$+O$_2$) atmosphere have superior electrical properties to the films sputtered at (Ar +O$_2$), without any significant structural changes.

Transparent conducting thin films of indium tin oxide(ITO) co-sputtered with aluminum-doped zinc oxide(AZO) were deposited on glass substrate by dual magnetron sputtering. It was found that the electrical properties and structural characteristics of the films are significantly changed according to the sputtering power of the AZO target. The IAZTO film prepared with D.C power of ITO at 100 W and R.F power of AZO at 50 W shows an electrical resistivity of $4.6{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and a sheet resistance of $30{\Omega}/{\square}$ (for 150 nm thick). Besides of the improvement of the electrical properties, compared to the ITO films deposited at the same process conditions, the IAZTO films have very smooth surface, which is due to the amorphous nature of the films. However, the electrical conductivity of the IAZTO films was found to be deteriorated along with the crystallization in case of the high temperature deposition (above $310^{\circ}C$). In this work, high quality amorphous transparent conductive oxide layers could be obtained by mixing AZO with ITO, indicating possible use of IAZTO films as the transparent electrodes in OLED and flexible display devices.

The a-axis and c-axis prefer oriented SBT thin films could be deposited on Pt(111)/Ti/$SiO_2$$650^{\circ}C$). The c-axis preferred orientation of SBT film can be obtained by Sr deficiency and high compressive stress. However, the a-axis-oriented grains can be formed under stoichiometric Sr content and nearly stress-free state.
