ZnO:Al thin films were deposited on glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering followed by in situ heat treatment in the same chamber. Effects of in situ heat treatment on properties of ZnO:Al thin films were investigated in this study. As heat treatment temperature was increased, crystal quality was improved first and then it was deteriorated, surface roughness was decreased, and sheet resistance was also decreased. The decrease in sheet resistance was caused by increasing carrier concentration due to decreased surface roughness. The decrease in surface roughness resulted in increase of transmittance. Therefore, in situ heat treatment is an effective method for obtaining films with better electrical characteristics.

The SBN thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si and p-type Si(100) substrate by rf magnetron sputtering method using $Sr_{0.7}Bi_{2.3}Nb_2O_9$ ceramic target. SBN thin films deposited were annealed at 600~800[$^{\circ}C$] by furnace in oxygen atmosphere during 40min. The polarization characteristics have been investigated to confirm the possibility of the SBN thin films for the application to destructive read out ferroelectric random access memory. The maximum remanent polarization and the coercive voltage are 0.6[${\mu}C/cm^2$], 1.2[V] respectively at annealing temperature of 800[$^{\circ}C$]. The leakage current density was the $2.57{\times}10^{-6}[A/cm^2]$ at an applied voltage of 5[V] at annealing temperature of 650[$^{\circ}C$]. Also, the fatigue characteristics of SBN thin films did not change up to $10^8$ switching cycles.

Bi2212 and Bi2223 thin films are fabricated by ion beam sputtering method. Three phases of Bi2201, Bi2212 and Bi2223 appear as stable ones in spite of the condition for thin film fabrication of Bi2212 and bi2223 compositions, depending on substrate temperature(T$\sub$sub/) and ozone pressure (PO$_3$). It is found out that these phases show similar T$\sub$sub/ and PO$_3$dependence, and that the stable regions of these phases are limited within very narrow temperature.

ZnO thin film had been deposited on the glass 7r sputtering method, and investigated by electrical and structural properties. When the rf power was 188W and sputtering pressure was 1$\times$10$^{-3}$ Torr at room temperature, Al-doped ZnO thin film had the lowest resistivity(1$\times$10$^{-4}$ $\Omega$.cm), and then carrier concentration and Hall mobility were 6.27$\times$10$^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$ and 22.04$\textrm{cm}^2$/V.s, respectively. And undoped ZnO thin film had about 10$^{14}$ $\Omega$.cm resistivity when oxygen content was 10% or more at room temperature. The surface morphology of ZnO thin film observed by SEM was overall uniform when oxygen content was 50% below and sputtering pressure was 1.0$\times$10$^{-1}$ Torr.

The Hydrogenated amorphous carbon(a-C:H) thin films are deposited on silicon with a close field unbalanced magnetron(CFUBM) sputtering systems. The experimental data are obtained on the depositon rate and physical properties of a-C:H films using DC bias voltage and Ar/C$_2$H$_2$ pressure. The depostion rate and the surface roughness decrease with DC bias voltage, but the hardness of the thin films increases with DC bias voltage. And the position of G-peak moves to lower wavenumber indicating an increase in diamond-like carbon characteristics with the lower Ar/C$_2$H$_2$ pressure.

We prepared ITO thin films using Facing Targets Sputtering(FTS) method with various input currents at room temperature on Polycarbonate(PC) and Polyethersulfon(PES) substrates. As a function of sputtering conditions, electrical and optical properties of prepared ITO thin films were measured. The electrical, optical, structural characteristics of ITO thin films were evaluated by Hall Effect Measurement(EGK), X-Ray Diffractormeter(Rigaku) and UV-VIS spectrometer(HP) respectively. From the results, we obtained ITO thin films that have a resistivity of $4{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$ on PC and $527{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$ on PES. Also, the optical transmittances of all samples were over 80%.

Recently, Silicon Germanium (SiGe) alloys have been received considerable attention for their great potentials in advanced electronic and optoelectronic devices. Especially, microcrystalline SiGe is a good channel material for thin film transistor due to its advantages such as narrow and variable band gap and process compatibility with Si based integrated circuits. In this work, microcrystalline silicon-germanium films (${\mu}c$-SiGe) were deposited by DC/RF magnetron co-sputtering method using Si and Ge target on Corning glass substrates. The film composition was controlled by changing DC and RF powers applied to each target. The substrate temperatures were changed from $100^{\circ}C$ to $450^{\circ}C$. The microstructure of the thin films was analyzed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The analysis results showed that the crystallinity of the films enhances with increasing Ge mole fraction. Also, crystallization temperature was reduced to $300^{\circ}C$ with $H_2$ dilution. Hall measurements indicated that the electrical properties were improved by Ge alloying.

ZT/PZT/ZT multi-layered thin films were deposited on silicon substrate by co-sputtering method for FEMFET device application. Effects of Pb/(Zr+Ti) ratio, films thickness, annealing conditions and substrate temperature on the ferroelectric behavior of the multi-layered films were studied. The best memory device characteristics with leakage current of 2$\times$10-8 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and breakdown field of about 1 MV/cm could be obtained with ZT(250 $\AA$) / PZT(1000 $\AA$)/ZT(750 $\AA$) multi-layered thin film deposited at 35$0^{\circ}C$ and post-annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 120 sec by RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing).

High Tc Supperconducting thin films were fabricated by rf magnetron sputtering method. We have successfully controlled the compositions of films by adding sintered CuO pellets on YBa2Cu3O7-x single target. High Tc thin films with large grian size and good crystal habit were obtained by rapid thermal annealing process. The films deposited on SrTiO3(100) single crystal substrate indicated the existence of c-axis prefered orientation confirmed by XRD and SEM analysis. The Tc, zero's of sharp resistive transition for rapid annealed films deposited on polycrystalline YSZ substrate and on SrTiO3(100) single crystal substrate were 79K and 88K, respectively.

In this paper, we report electrical, optical and structural properties of Al-doped zinc oxide (AZO) thin films deposited at different substrate temperatures and pressures. The films were prepared by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering on glass substrates in argon (Ar) ambient. The X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the AZO films deposited at room temperature (RT) and 20 Pa were mostly oriented along a-axis with preferred orientation along (100) direction. There was an improvement in resistivity ($3.7{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}-cm$) transmittance (95%) at constant substrate temperature (RT) and working pressure (20 Pa) using the Hall-effect measurement system and UV-vis spectroscopy, respectively. Our results have promising applications in low-cost transparent electronics, such as the thin-film solar cells and thin-film transistors due to favourable deposition conditions. Furthermore our film deposition method offers a procedure for preparing highly oriented (100) AZO films.
