Zirconium oxide films have been synthesized by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering deposition on n-Si(001) substrate with metal zirconium target at variant $O_2$ partial pressures. The influences of $O_2$ partial pressures of the morphology, deposition rate, microstructure, and the dielectric constant of $ZrO_2$ have been discussed. The results show that deposition rate of $ZrO_2$ films decreases, the roughness, and the thickness of the native $SiO_2$ interlayer increases with the increase of $O_2$ partial pressure. $ZrO_2$ films synthesized at low $O_2$ partial pressure are amorphous and monoclinic polycrystalline in nanometer scale at low $O_2$ partial pressure. The relative dielectrics of $ZrO_2$ films are in the range of 12 to 25.

본 논문은 ZnO 분말 타겟을 스퍼터링하여 glass 기판 위에 증착한 ZnO 박막의 구조적, 광학적 특성을 보고한다. 소결된 ZnO ceramic target을 사용하는 보통의 radio-frequency magnetron sputtering과 달리 본 연구에서는 전처리과정이 필요하지 않은 ZnO 분말 target을 사용하였다. ZnO 박막은 wurtzite (0002) 우선배향면으로 성장하였다. 초기의 ZnO 박막은 매우 평평한 층구조로 증착되었고, 두께가 증가함에 따라 섬구조로 전이하였다. 400-1000 nm 광원에 대하여 평균 88% 이상의 광투과도를 나타내었으며, 220 nm 시편의 경우, 3.23 eV의 near bandedge emission 흡수단을 측정하였다.

In this study, transparent and conductive Al-doped zinc oxide (AZO) films were prepared on a glass substrate by an radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering method using a 150-nm-thick AZO target (Al: 2 wt.%) at room temperature. We investigated the effects of RF power between 100-350 W (in steps of 50 W) on the structural, electrical, and optical properties of the AZO films. The thickness and cross-sectional images of the films were observed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. The thicknesses of all films were kept constant at 150 nm and grown on a glass substrate. The grain sizes of the AZO films were determined with the X-ray diffraction by using the Scherrer' equation, and their electrical properties were investigated using a Hall effect electronic transport measurement system. The transmittance of the AZO films was also measured by an ultraviolet-visible spectrometer.

In this study Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films were deposited on p-type Si substrates using a Radio-Frequency magnetron Sputtering system. The DLC film was deposited by bombarding graphite target with a N2/Ar plasma mixture with various conditions: substrate, pressure, deposition time, temperature of substrate, power and ratio of gas mixture. The effect on the conduction and hardness of DLC thin films were investigated. The conduction of DLC films were measured by I-V measurement. In addition, Raman analysis was performed to study the chemical bonding structure. The hardness was measured by Nano indentation. Atomic Force Microscopy was used for determined surface morphology of DLC film.

Indium nitride thin films were deposited by the radio-frequency reactive magnetron sputtering method. The indium target was sputtered by the mixture flow ratio of $N_2$ to Ar, 9:1. The effects of growth temperature on the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the films were investigated. With increasing the growth temperature, the crystallinity of the films was improved, and the crystalline size was increased. The energy bandgap for the film grown at $25^{\circ}C$ was 3.63 eV, and the bandgap showed an increasing tendency on the growth temperature. The carrier concentration, Hall mobility and electrical resistivity of the films depended significantly on the growth temperature and the maximum Hall mobility of $32.3\;cm^2$/Vsec was observed for the film grown at $400^{\circ}C$.

Silicon carbide nanowires were grown by heat treatment of the films at $1200^{\circ}C$ after amorphous SiC thin films were deposited on graphite substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering at $600^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed that SiC nanowires with the diameter of 20-60 nm and length of about 50nm were grown from Field Emission Scanning Election Microscope (FE-SEM) and Transmission Election Microscope (TEM) observation. The diameter of nanowires was increased as heat treatment time is increased. The nanowires were identified to ${\beta}$-SiC single crystalline from X-Ray Diffraction(XRD) analysis. It was observed from this study that deposition temperature of samples was critical to the crystallization of nanowires. On the other hand, the effect of deposition time was insignificant.

We investigated the structural and optical evolution of Ga2O3 thin films on glass substrates deposited using radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Initially, amorphous Ga2O3 thin film is grown, and then, surface humps and nanowire (NW) bundles are gradually formed as the film thickness increases. The surface humps are Ga-rich and provide nucleation sites for NWs through a self-catalytic vapor-liquid-solid mechanism with self-assembled Ga droplets. Both the surface humps and the NWs induce variation of the optical properties such as the optical bandgap and refractive index by absorbing light in the ultraviolet region.

$Pb_{0.99}[(Zr_{0.6}Sn_{0.4})_{0.9}Ti_{0.1}]_{0.98}Nb_{0.02}O_3$ (PNZST) thin films were deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on a $(La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5})CoO_3$ (LSCO)/Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate using a PNZST target with an excess PbO of 10 mole%. The thin films deposited at the substrate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ crystallized to a perovskite phase after rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The thin films, which annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ for 10 seconds in air, exhibited good crystal structures and ferroelectric properties. The remanent polarization and coercive field of the fabricated PNZST capacitor were approximately $20uC/cm^2$ and 50 kV/cm, respectively. The reduction of the polarization after $2.2\;{\times}\;10^9$ switching cycles was less than 10%.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) films were deposited on a glass slide at a thickness of 280 nm by radio frequency(rf) magnetron sputtering from a ceramic target composed of $In_2O_3\;(90\%)\;+\;SnO_2\;(10\%)$. We investigated the effects of the annealing temperature (Ta) between 200 and 350'E for 30 min in air on such properties as thermal stability, surface morphology, and crystal structure of the films. X-ray diffraction spectra revealed that all the films were oriented preferably with [222] direction and [440] direction and the peak intensity increased with increasing annealing temperature. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that the sodium was out-diffused from the glass substrate at the annealing temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. The sodium composition of the ITO film amlealed at $350^{\circ}C\;for\;30\;min\;was\;2.5\%$ at the surface. Also the sodium peak almost disappeared after 3 keV $Ar^+$sputtering for 6 min. The visible transmittance of all ITO films was over $77\%$.
