Paraelectric ZrTiO4 thin films were synthesized on a Si(100) substrate using DC magnetron reactive sputtering. Films deposited above-400$^{\circ}C$ exhibited crystalline characteristics. The dielectric constants ($\varepsilon$) and dielectric losses (tan$\delta$) of as-deposited and annealed films were measured in the 1 MHz range using a Pt upper electrode and a phosphorous-doped si bottom electrode. Preliminary data showed that as the deposition temperature increased, the dielectric losses decreased while the dielectric constants did not change significantly. similar trends for dielectric losses were observed when the as-deposited samples were annealed at 800$^{\circ}C$. The reduction of dielectric losses at high-deposition temperatures and post annealing correlated well with the x-ray diffraction peak widths.

The $V_{1.8}W_{0.2}O_5$ thin films deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by RF sputtering method exhibited fairly good TCR and dielectric properties. It was found that film crystallinity, dielectric properties, and TCR properties were strongly dependent upon the annealing temperature. The dielectric constants of the $V_{1.8}W_{0.2}O_5$ thin films annealed at 400$^{\circ}C$ were 38.11, with a dielectric loss of 0.134, respectively. Also, the TCR values of the $V_{1.8}W_{0.2}O_5$ thin films annealed at 400$^{\circ}C$ were about -3.15%/K.

To investigate the effects of pretreatment and substrate bias on the characteristics of the diamond thin films, the thin films were deposited on the p-type Si(100) wafer by MPECVD using mixtures of $H_2$, $CH_4$, and $O_2$ gases. Deposition was carried out at the substrate temperature of $900^{\circ}C$ and at the pressure of 40torr. The effect of the pretreatment on the film formation was the examined by using SiC and diamond powders as abrasive powders. Furthermore, the substrate bias effect on the formation of the diamond film was also examined. The highest nucleation density was observed for the pretreatment with 40~60$\mu\textrm{m}$ size of diamond powders and a negative bias potential(-50V). Many defects and(111) twins in the diamond films were observed.

The (Ba, Sr)TiO$_3$(BST) thin films were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF sputtering technique. The structural properties of the BST thin films were investigated with substrate temperature by XRD, SEM, EDS and AES depth profils. Increasing the substrate temperature, barium multi titanate phases were decreased. The BST thin film had a structure of perovskite type, and had peaks of (100), (200) at the substrate temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$. When the BST thin films were deposited at the substrate temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$, the composition ratio of Ba/sr was 52/48.

AlN thin films are prepared on Si (111) substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. Two-step deposition method is proposed to obtain AlN thin films with high c-axis (002)-TC value and low surface roughnesses. For all the deposited AlN films, the c-axis (002)-orientation, surface mophology, and roughness are characterized in terms of deposition conditions FEAR devices with Al/AlN/Mo/Si(111) configuration are also fabricated. From the frequency response characteristics, the return loss and electromechanical coupling contant($k_t{^2}$) are estimated.

(Ba$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$)TiO$_3$ thin films were fabricated at different RTA temperatures and thicknesses by Sol-Gel method. Solution consisting of acetate powders and titanium isopropoxide in a mixture of acetic acid and ethylene glycol were spin coated onto Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrates.

C-axis-oriented ZnO thin films were successfully deposited on p-Si (100) in an RF magnetron sputtering system. Deposition conditions such as deposition power, working pressure, and oxygen gas ratio were varied. Crystalline structures of the deposited ZnO films were investigated by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) technique. Results show that the deposition parameters can have a strong impact on the preferred orientations and grain sizes of the deposited ZnO films.
