Many research groups have studied tandem or multi-junction cells to overcome this low efficiency and degradation. In multi-junction cells, band-gap engineering of each absorb layer is needed to absorb the light at various wavelengths efficiently. Various absorption layers can be formed using multi-junctions, such as hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide (a-SiC:H), amorphous silicon germanium (a-SiGe:H) and microcrystalline silicon (${\mu}c$-Si:H), etc. Among them, ${\mu}c$-Si:H is the bottom absorber material because it has a low band-gap and does not exhibit light-induced degradation like amorphous silicon. Nevertheless, ${\mu}c$-Si:H requires a much thicker material (>2 mm) to absorb sufficient light due to its smaller light absorption coefficient, highlighting the need for a high growth rate for productivity. ${\mu}c$-SiGe:H has a much higher absorption coefficient than ${\mu}c$-Si:H at the low energy wavelength, meaning that the thickness of the absorption layer can be decreased to less than half that of ${\mu}c$-Si:H. ${\mu}c$-SiGe:H films were prepared using 40 MHz very high frequency PECVD method at 1 Torr. SiH4 and GeH4 were used as a reactive gas and H2 was used as a dilution gas. In this study, the ${\mu}c$-SiGe:H layer for triple solar cells applications was performed to optimize the film properties.

In this work, thermal evaporation system was employed to deposit thin films of SiC on glass substrates in order to determine the parameters of them. Measurements included transmission, absorption, Seebak effect, resistivity and conductivity, absorption coefficient, type of energy band-gap, extinction coefficient as functions of photon energy and the effect of increasing film thickness on transmittance. Results explained that SiC thin film is an n-type semiconductor of indirect energy band-gap of ${\sim}3eV$, cut-off wavelength of 448nm, absorption coefficient of $3.4395{\times}10^{4}cm^{-1}$ and extinction coefficient of 0.154. The experimental measured values are in good agreement with the typical values of SiC thin films prepared by other advanced deposition techniques.

Microstructure and ferroelectric properties of sol-gel derived PZT(52/48) and PT interlayered PZT(52/48) thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates were investigated. Films were fabricated using Acetylacetone chelated PT and PZT(52/48) sols. PZT(52/48) thin films annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 20 min showed the rosette structure with the size of 1.2~1.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ and the pyrochlore phse was contained. PT interlayered PZT thin films, which is inserted by PbTiO3 thin layer with the thickness of 130 $\AA$ between PZT thin film and electrode, consisted of a single perovskite phase after annealing above 55$0^{\circ}C$. They exhibited the uniform and columnar grains of 0.1~0.16${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, which are applicable for microelectronic device including non-volatile memory. Typical P-E hysteresis loops could be obtained from PT interlayered PZT thin film at as low as the annealing temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$. Ferroelectric properties of PT interlayered PZT thin films were improved as increasing annealing temperature up to $700^{\circ}C$, and then deteriorated at 75$0^{\circ}C$. PZT(52/48) and PT interlayered PZT(52/48) thin film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 20 min displayed Ps=38.8$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Pr=10.0$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Ec=65.3 kV/cm and Ps=28.5$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Pr=9.8$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Ec=76.1 kV/cm, respectively.

TMS(tetramethysilane, Si(CH$_{3}$)$_{4}$)를 이용하여 RTCVD(rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition)장치에서 Si(111) 기판 위에 $\beta$-SiC(111)를 성장시켰다. 실험변수로는 반응온도, TMS유량, 반응시간, H$_{2}$유량을 변화시켰으며, XRD, IR, SEM, RBS, TEM등을 이용하여 성장된 박막을 분석하였다. 성장된 박막은 crystallized Si, C또한 Si-H, C-H결합은 관찰할 수 없었으나 다결정이었다. TMS의 유량이 증가함에 따라, 성장온도가 감소함에 따라서 미려한 박막을 성장시킬 수 있었으며, 반응의 활성화에너지는 20kcal/molㆍK이었다.

The (S $r_{0.85}$C $a_{0.15}$)Ti $O_{3}$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode (Pt/TiN/ $SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method. The composition of SCT thin films deposited on Si substrate at woom temperature is close to stoichiometry(1.102 in A/B ratio). The maximum dielectric constant of SCT thin films is obtained by annealing at 600[$^{\circ}C$]. The capacitance characteristics had a stable value within $\pm$4[%]. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in SCT thin films is observed above 200[kHz]. SCT thin films used in this study show the phenomena of dielectric relaxation with the increase of frequencey.cey.

This study was performed to investigate types and formation mechanism of cracks in two Al alloy welds, A5083 and A7NO1 spot-welded by pulse Nd: YAG laser, using SEM, EPMA and Micro-XRD. In the weld zone, three types of crack were observed: center line crack($C_{C}$), diagonal crack($C_{D}$), and U shape crack($C_{U}$). Also, HAZ crack($C_{H}$), was observed in the HAZ region, furthermore, mixing crack($C_{M}$), consisting of diagonal crack and HAZ crack was observed.White film was formed at the hot crack region in the fractured surface after it was immersed to 10%NaOH water. In the case of A5083 alloy, white films in C crack and $C_D crack region were composed of low melting phases, Fe₂Si$Al_8$ and eutectic phases, Mg₂Al₃ and Mg₂Si. Such films observed near HAZ crack were also consist of eutectic Mg₂Al₃. In the case of A7N01 alloy, eutectic phases of CuAl₂, $Mg_{32}$ (Al,Zn) ₃, MgZn₂, Al₂CuMg and Mg₂Si were observed in the whitely etched films near $C_{C}$ crack and $C_{D}$ crack regions. The formation of liquid films was due to the segregation of Mg, Si, Fe in the case of A5083 alloy and Zn, Mg, Cu, Si in the case of A7N01 aooly, respectively.The $C_{D}$ and $C_{C}$ cracks were regarded as a result of the occurrence of tensile strain during the welding process. The formation of $C_{M}$ crack is likely to be due to the presence of liquid film at the grain boundary near the fusion line in the base metal as well as in the weld fusion zone during solidification. The $C_{U}$ crack is considered a result of the collapsed keyhole through incomplete closure during rapid solidification. (Received October 7, 1999)

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by the sol-gel method using a sol containing poly(N-vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP). PVP in alkoxide solutions can suppress the condensation reaction in gel films during heat treatment, and increase the viscosity of alkoxide solutions. Single-phase PZT films as thick as 1 ${\mu}m$ were deposited by repetitive coating with successive third-step heat treatments at 150$^{\circ}C$, 350$^{\circ}C$ and 650$^{\circ}C$. After heat treatment, the films were crack free, and optically transparent. As a result, we demonstrated a PZT film with a PVP molar ratio of 0.5, which has a permittivity of 734, a dielectric loss of 0.042, a $P_r$ of 40.5 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and an $E_c$ of 156 kV/cm.

$(Bi, La)Ti_{3}O_{12}(BLT)$ ferroelectric thin films were prepared on $Al_{2}O_{3}/Si$ substrates by the sol-gel method. The as-coated films were post-annealed at the temperature of $650^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. The crystallinty, surface morphologies and electrical properties were affected by the annealing temperatures. The BLT films annealed at above $650^{\circ}C$ exhibited typical bismuth layered perovskite structures with (00$\ell$) preferred orientation. The granular shaped grains with a size of approximately 90nm was formed in the film sample annealed at $700^{\circ}C$. The memory window volatge of the BLT film was 2.5V. The leakage current of BLT films annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ was about $1\times10^{-7}A/\textrm{cm}^2$ at 3V.
