We have carried out quantitative structure and property analysis of the nanoporous structures of low dielectric constant (low-k) carbon-doped silicon oxide (SiCOH) films, which were deposited with plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) using vinyltrimethylsilane (VTMS), divinyldimethylsilane (DVDMS), and tetravinylsilane (TVS) as precursor and oxygen as an oxidant gas. We found that the SiCOH film using VTMS only showed well defined spherical nanopores within the film after thermal annealing at $450^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. The average pore radius of the generated nanopores within VTMS SiCOH film was 1.21 nm with narrow size distribution of 0.2. It was noted that thermally labile $C_{x}H_{y}$ phase and Si-$CH_3$ was removed to make nanopore within the film by thermal annealing. Consequently, this induced that decrease of average electron density from 387 to $321\;nm^{-3}$ with increasing annealing temperature up to $450^{\circ}C$ and taking a longer annealing time up to 4 h. However, the other SiCOH films showed featureless scattering profiles irrespective of annealing conditions and the decreases of electron density were smaller than VTMS SiCOH film. Because, with more vinyl groups are introduced in original precursor molecule, films contain more organic phase with less volatile characteristic due to the crosslinking of vinyl groups. Collectively, the presenting findings show that the organosilane containing vinyl group was quite effective to deposit SiCOH/$C_{x}H_{y}$ dual phase films, and post annealing has an important role on generation of pores with the SiCOH film.

고유전 커패시터의 유전완화 특성은 시간영역에서 나타나는 커패시터의 동적특성으로 이해될 수 있으며 이것은 DRAM의 재충전 시간동안 충전된 전하를 잃어버리는 가장 주된 요인으로 인식된다. 그러므로 DRAM 동작에 미치는 영향을 고려하기 위하여 고유전 커패시터의 유전완화에 대한 등가회로를 만드는 것이 필수적이다. 그러나 아직까지 등가회로를 만들 수 있는 일반적이고 이론적인 방법이 제시되지 않고 있다. 근 본 연구에서는 고유전 커패시터의 등가회로를 주파수 영역에서 모델링하는 새로운 방법을 개발하였다. 이 방법은 이론적인 체계를 갖춘 일반적인 방법이다. 또한, 본 연구에서는 실험과정을 통해서 이 방법의 타당성으로 확인하였고, 궁극적으로 새로운 방법으로 얻어진 등가회로를 활용하여 유전완화가 DRAM 동작에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다.

We have investigated the dielectric and electrical characteristics of palrnitic acid(PA), stearic acid(SA) and arachidic acid(AA) Langmuir-Blodgett(LB) films because these fatty acid systems have a same hydrophilic group and a different hydrophobic one(alky1 chain lqngth). The dielectric characteristics such as the capacitance-frequency(C-F) characteristics and the dielectric dispersion and absorption characteristics of PA, SA and AA through-plane were measured. In the result, the relative dielectric constants of PA, SA and AA LB films were about 3.0-4.6, 2.7-4.1 and 2.4-3.8, respectively. The relative dielectric constants were decreased in proportion to the chain length of alkyl group. Also, the dielectric dispersion and absorption of each fatty acid LB films have arisen from the dipole polarization in the range of $10^4~10^5[Hz]. And, the conductivity of PA, SA and AA LB films obtained from I-V characteristics were about $9{\times}10^{-14}, 3{\times}10^{-l4} and 5{\times}10^{-15}[S/cm], respectively. These results have shown the insulating materials and could control the conductivity by changing the length of alkyl group. Also, we have confirmed that the barrier height of fatty acid systems were about 1.32-1.40[eV] and the dielectric constant were about 3.0-4.2. These values were almost the same ones obtained from dielectric characteristics.

Thin-film transistors (TFT) have become the key components of electronic and optoelectronic devices. Most conventional thin-film field-effect transistors in display applications use an amorphous or polycrystal Si:H layer as the channel. This silicon layers are opaque in the visible range and severely restrict the amount of light detected by the observer due to its bandgap energy smaller than the visible light. Therefore, Si:H TFT devices reduce the efficiency of light transmittance and brightness. One method to increase the efficiency is to use the transparent oxides for the channel, electrode, and gate insulator. The development of transparent oxides for the components of thin-film field-effect transistors and the room-temperature fabrication with low voltage operations of the devices can offer the flexibility in designing the devices and contribute to the progress of next generation display technologies based on transparent displays and flexible displays. In this thesis, I report on the dc performance of transparent thin-film transistors using amorphous indium tin zinc oxides for an active layer. $SiO_2$ was employed as the gate dielectric oxide. The amorphous indium tin zinc oxides were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The carrier concentration of amorphous indium tin zinc oxides was controlled by oxygen pressure in the sputtering ambient. Devices are realized that display a threshold voltage of 4.17V and an on/off ration of ${\sim}10^9$ operated as an n-type enhancement mode with saturation mobility with $15.8\;cm^2/Vs$. In conclusion, the fabrication and characterization of thin-film transistors using amorphous indium tin zinc oxides for an active layer were reported. The devices were fabricated at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering. The operation of the devices was an n-type enhancement mode with good saturation characteristics.

The OTFT devices had inverted staggered structures of Au/pentacene/ppMMA/ITO on PET substrate. The overall device performances of the flexible devices such as the operating voltage, the field effect mobility, the on/off ratio and the off current are somewhat worse than those of devices fabricated on glass substrates. Pentacene/ppMMA OTFT benchmarks (mobility, sub-threshold slope, on/off ratio) were comparable to that of solution cast PMMA, but below average when compared to other polymer gate dielectrics. However, threshold and drive voltages were among the lowest reported for a polymer gate dielectric, and surpassed only by ultra-thin SAM gate dielectrics.

In this paper, evaluation of physical properties was made for dielectric relaxation phenomena by the detection of the surface pressures and displacements current on the monolayer films of fatty acid monomolecular Arachidic Acid, Stearic Acid using compressing velocity. LB(Langmuir-Blodgett) thin films were manufacture by detecting deposition for the accumulation and the current was measured after the electric bias was applied across the manufactured MIM device. The physicochemical properties of the fatty acid monomolecular Arachidic Acid, Stearic Acid films surface structure has been studied by AFM. We give pressure stimulation into organic thin films and then manufacture a device under the accumulation condition that the state surface pressure is gas state, liquid state, solid state. Formation that prevent when gas phase state and liquid phase state measure but could know organic matter that molecules form equal and stable film when molecules were not distributed evenly, and accumulated in solid state only.

Because the Pb-based piezoelectric materials showed problems such as an environmental pollution. lead-free $O_3$ materials were studied in the present study. The $O_3$ thin films were deposited at $640^{\circ}C$ on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2$ substrate by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and were annealed for 5 min at $750^{\circ}C$ using rapid thermal annealing (RTA) in nitrogen atmosphere. Samples annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ showed a smooth morphology and an improvement of the dielectric and leakage properties, as compared with as-grown samples. However, electrical properties of the $O_3$ thin films obtained in the present study should be improved for piezoelectric applications.

We have fabricated (0001) oriented hexagonal $HoMnO_3$ thin films with thickness of 300 nm using Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD) technique on $Pt(111)/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates. The XRD $\theta-2\theta$ pattern shows only (0002), (0004), and (0008) reflection of a hexagonal phase, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of (0004) peak is under $1.6^{\circ}$. The chemical state of Mn from XPS spectra of the films reveals the presence of $Mn^{3+}$ only. The temperature dependence of dielectric constant shows a weak anomaly at magnetic $N\acute{e}el$ temperature $(T_N)$, which is about 70 K.

Ferroelectric thin film capacitors with high dielectric constant are important for the application of memory devices. In this work, thin films of PLT(28)(Pb$\sub$0.72/La$\sub$0.28/Ti$\sub$0.93/O$_3$) were fabricated on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrates in-situ annealing and ex-situ annealing have been compared depending on the annealing time. We have systematically investigated the variation of grain sizes depending on the condition of post-annealing and the variation of deposition rate. C-V measurement, ferroelectric properties, leakage current and SEM were performed to investigate the electrical properties and the microstructural properties of Pb(La,Ti)O$_3$.
