C-axis oriented zinc oxide thin films were deposited on glass substrate by reactive Facing Targets Sputtering (FTS) system. The characteristics of zinc oxide thin films on power, inter targets distance, and substrate temperature were investigated by XRD(x-ray diffractometer), alphastep (Tencor) analyses. The Facing Targets Sputtering system can deposit thin film in plasma-free situation and change the deposition condition in wide range. The excellently c-axis oriented zinc oxide thin films were obtained at sputter pressure 1mTorr, sputtering current 0.4A, substrate temperature $300^{\circ}C$, inter targets distance 100mm. In the conditions, the rocking curve of zinc oxide thin films deposited on ZnO/Glass was $3.9^{\circ}$.

[ $Bi_2Sr_2Ca_nCu_{n+1}O_y(n{\geq}0)$ ] thin film is fabricatedvia two different processes using an ion beam sputtering method i.e. co-deposition and layer-by-layer deposition. A single phase of Bi2212 can be fabricated via the co-deposition process. While it cannot be obtained by the layer-by-layer process. Ultra-low growth rate in our ion beam sputtering system brings out the difference in Bi element adsorption between the two processes and results in only 30% adsorption against total incident Bi amount by layer-by-layer deposition, in contrast to enough Bi adsorption by co-deposition.

InSnTiO 투명전극의 전기/광학적 및 구조적 특성은 Hall measurement, UV/Vis spectrometry, X-ray Diffraciton 분석법을 통해 최적화 하였고, DC power, substrate to target distance (TSD), target to target distance (TTD), ambient treatment 변수 조절을 통해 최적화된 LFTS InSnTiO 투명전극을 제작하였다. LFTS 공정을 이용한 InSnTiO 투명전극의 성막 공정 중 DC파워와 공정압력 변화에 따른 구조적, 표면적 특성 변화는 Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) 과 X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) 분석을 통해 관찰하였다. 이렇게 증착된 InSnTiO 투명전극은 급속열처리 시스템으로 (Rapid Thermal Annealing system) 후열처리를 진행하여 투과도의 향상과 면저항의 감소를 확인하였다. 본 연구에서는 다양한 분석을 통해 Co-sputtering한 InSnTiO 박막의 특성과 다양한 장점을 소개한다.

TiC thin films were deposited on Si wafer by unbalanced magnetron sputtering (UBMS) system with two targets of graphite and titanium. During the TiC sputtering, the RF power was varied from 100 W to 175 W and the physical and electrical properties of TiC films were investigated. The hardness and rms surface roughness of TiC films were improved with increasing RF power and the maximum hardness about 24 GPa and the minimum rms surface roughness about 1.2 nm were obtained. The resistivity of TiC films was decreased with increasing RF power. Consequently, the physical and electrical properties of TiC film wewe improved with increasing RF power.

Sputtering parameters such as N$_{2}$ flow percentage and bias voltage in reactive TiN film deposition by RF magnetron sputtering system were selected to investigate the effects of sputtering deposition conditions on tribological characteristics of TiN films. Wear scar of the steel ball damaged by TiN films was measured by SEM to understand wear behavior of deposited TiN films. Crystallization and induced strain of TiN were detected by XRD. Wear mode changed from plastic to brittle with increasing N$_{2}$ ratio. Wear scar by sliding with TiN film deposited at around 27% N$_{2}$ ratio was maximum. The results indicate that bias voltage affects tribological behavior by formation of high density film and internal stress.

We developed the Hyper-thermal Neutral Beam (HNB) sputtering process as a plasma damage free process for ITO top anode deposition on inverted Top emission OLED (ITOLED). For examining the effect of the HNB sputtering system, Inverted Bottom emission OLEDs (IBOLED) with ITO top anode electrode were fabricated; the characteristics of IBOLED using HNB sputtering process shows significant suppression of plasma induced damage.

ZnO thin films for Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator(FBAR) were prepared by FTS (Facing Target Sputtering) system. The FTS methode enable to generate high density plasma, and it has a high deposition rate at 1mTorr pressure. Therefore, the ZnO thin films were deposited on $AZO/SiO_2/Si$ substrates with oxygen gas flow rate, and the other sputtering conditions were fixed such as a sputtering current of 0.8A, a substrate temperature at room temperature. AZO bottom electrode were deposited on $SiO_2/Si$ substrate and by Zn:Al(Al:2wt%) metal target. ZnO thin film thickness and the c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO thin film were evaluated by ${\alpha}-step$ and XRD.

We have studied the structural and optical properties of ZnO thin film deposited on glass by RF magnetron sputtering as functions of working pressures. The grain sizes were decreased as the working pressures were increased. The average optical transmissions over all exceeded 80% for ZnO films deposited in 20, 25 and 300m torr working pressures. And the transmission spectra patterns were almost same. While the transmission spectra pattern of ZnO film deposited in 35nm torr was different with other spectra patterns obtained in 20, 25 and 30nm torr working pressures.

Nominally undoped (intrinsic) ZnO thin films were deposited by magnetron sputtering system with utilization of substrate bias on silicon at $450^{\circ}C$. Oxygen gas was selected as sputtering gas. The deposited thins were evaluated with X-ray diffraction (XRD) for their microstructure analysis and Hall effect in Van der Pauw configuration for their electrical property. The XRD shows that the magnitude and polarity of substrate bias significantly influence the microstructure and electrical properties.

The development of high performance materials is very important subject in order to enhance the properties of bearings whose role is to transfer energy harmoniously by reducing the problem of friction and wear down, etc. between the interacting solid surfaces in relative motion under high loads in comply with mechanical operating mechanism of engines. In this study, several (100-x)Al-xSn coating films (where x=85, 75, 65 atomic % at Al) on substrates which are abt. 2mm thickenss of Kelmet layer sintered back steel were prepared by using RF sputtering system. These coating films were observed the morphology by SEM(Scanning Electron Microscope) and investigated the crystal structure by XRD(X-ray Diffractor) for their properties. And friction coefficient of these films was measured by ball-on-disc tester for their tribological properties. From the experimental results, it was shown that high performance properties of bearing can be improved greatly by controlling the composition and morphology of material surface with effective use of the plasma-assisted sputtering process.
