MgO dielectric pprotection layer is ppreppared by R.F. reactive magnetron spputtering with Mg target under various conditions of spputtering ppressure, time and substrate tempperature. Discharge characteristics of ppDpp is also studied as a pparameter of MgO pprepparation conditions. As the working ppressure and substrate tempperature was increase, the discharge voltage was decreased. Two kinds of MgO ppreppared both spputtering and E-beam methods were stable after annealing at 35$0^{\circ}C$ for 120min. discharge voltage under 3 mixed gas(He+Xe0.2%+Ne30%) was V=130V, V=102V and ${\gamma}$ coefficient was twiced as much as that of dielectric layer.

Highly sensitive and mechanically stable gas sensors have been fabricated using the microfabrication and micromaching techniques. The sensing material used to detect the offensive trimethylarnine ((CH$_{3}$)$_{3}$N) gas is 6 wt% $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$-doped, 1000.angs.-thick ZnO deposited by r. f. magnetron sputtering. The optimum operating temperature of the sensor is 350.deg.C and the corresponding heater power is about 85mW. Excellent thermal insulation is achieved by the use of a double-layer structure of 0.2.mu.m -thick silicon nitride and 1.4.mu.m-thick phosphosilicate glass(PSG) prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) and atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition(APCVD), respectively. The sensors are mechanically stable enough to endure at least 43, 200 heat cycles between room temperature and 350.deg. C.

A Sputter ion Plating(SIP) system with a r.f. coil electrode and the Facing Target Sputter(FTS) source was designed for high-quality thin film formation. The rf discharge was combined with DC facing target sputtering in order to enhance ionization degree of a sputtered atoms. The energy of ions incident on the substrate depended on the health potential of DC biased substrate. The mean impact ion energy increased with negative bias voltage and rf power. The adhesive force of the TiN film formed was in the range of 30$\sim$50N, and markedly influenced by substrate bias voltage.

Copper oxide thin films were deposited on the p-type Si(100) by r.f. magnetron sputtering as a function of different substrate temperature. The deposited copper oxide thin films were investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The SEM and SE data show that the thickness of the copper oxide films was about 170 nm. AFM images show that the surface roughness of copper oxide films was increased with increasing substrate temperature. As the substrate temperature increased, monoclinic CuO (111) peak appeared and the crystal size decreased while the monoclinic CuO (-111) peak was independent on the substrate temperature. The oxidation states of Cu 2p and O 1s resulted from XPS were not affected on the substrate temperature. The contact angle measurement was also studied and indicated that the surface of copper oxide thin films deposited high temperature has more hydrophobic surface than that of deposited at low temperature.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) was used as the top anode of top emission inverted organic light emitting diodes (TEIOLEDs). TEIOLEDs were fabricated by deposition of an aluminum bottom cathode, an N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1, 1'-diphenyl-4, 4 1'-diamine (TPD) hole transport layer, a tris-8-hydroxyquinoline aluminum ($Alq_3$) emission layer, and an ITO top anode sequentially. ITO was deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering without $O_2$ flow during the deposition. After the deposition, the deposited ITO layer was kept under oxygen atmosphere for the oxidation. The characteristics of the TEOILED were affected significantly by the post-deposition oxidation condition.

AlN thin films were deposited on Si(100) and $SiO_2$/Si substrates using R.F. magnetron sputtering system. The effect of various deposition conditions on the crystal orientation of AlN films was investigated to obtain a highly (002)-oriented films. SAW filters were fabricated using AlN films with various thicknesses and their frequency response characterizations were measured. Experimental results showed that the (002)-orientation and surface roughness of AlN films played a crucial role of determining the frequency response of AlN SAW devices.

The sheet resistance (Rs) of undoped GaN films on AlN/c-plane sapphire substrate was investigated in which the AlN films were grown by R. F. magetron sputtering method. The Rs was strongly dependent on the AlN layer thickness and semi-insulating behavior was observed. To clarify the effect of crystalline property on Rs, the crystal structure of the GaN films has been studied using x-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy. A compressive strain was introduced by the presence of AlN nucleation layer (NL) and was gradually relaxed as increasing AlN NL thickness. This relaxation produced more threading dislocations (TD) of edge-type. Moreover, the surface morphology of the GaN film was changed at thicker AlN layer condition, which was originated by the crossover from planar to island grains of AlN. Thus, rough surface might produce more dislocations. The edge and mixed dislocations propagating from the interface between the GaN film and the AlN buffer layer affected the electric resistance of GaN film.

$SiO_2$ thin films embedded with Ge microcrystallites (Ge-$SiO_2$) were prepared by use of r.f. co-sputtering technique from a Ge, $SiO_2$ composite target. The size of Ge crystallites can been modulated by the experiment parameters. The optical absorption and non-linear optical properties of Ge-$SiO_2$ films were measured. The blue shift of the optical absorption edge, the saturated absorption and two-photon absorption under the condition of resonant absorption have been observed, and are discussed according to the quantum confinement effect.

Ge quantum dots in $SiO_2$ thin films were prepared by r.f. magnetron co-sputtering using a Ge, $SiO_2$ composite target. The size of quantum dots was modulated by controlling of substrate temperature during depositing and annealing of samples deposited at certain substrate temperature. A series of work was done on the influence of preparing parameters on the growth of quantum dots, and a discussion on the formation and growth of quantum dots under different preparation parameters is given.

The electrical and physical characteristics of MgO and Pt thin-films on Si wafers deposited by r.f magnetron sputtering, were analyzed with annealing condition(100$0^{\circ}C$, 120 min) by four point probe, SEM and XRD. Until annealing temperature of 100$0^{\circ}C$, MgO had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to SiO$_2$ and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin-films and the resistivity of Pt thin-films was improved. The thermal characteristics of Pt micro-heater were analyed with Pt-RTD integrated on the same substrate, In the analysis of properties of Pt-RTD, TCR value had 3927 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and liner in the temperature range of 25~40$0^{\circ}C$ temperature of Pt micro-heater had up to 40$0^{\circ}C$ with 1.5 watts of the heating power.
