ZnO:Al thin film for application to FBAR's bottom electrode using ZnO piezoelectric thin film were prepared by FTS, in order to improve the crystallographic properties of ZnO thin films because the ZnO:Al thin film and ZnO thin films structure is equal each other. So we prepared the ZnO:Al thin film with oxygen gas flow rate. Thickness and c-axis preferred orientation and electric properties of ZnO:Al bottom electrode were evaluated by $\alpha$-step, XRD and 4-point probe..

The stochiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film, ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) in the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 610 $^{\circ}C$ and 450 $^{\circ}C$, respectively and the growth rate of the ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film was about 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$/hr. The crystalline structure of ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film was investigated by photo1uminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD) measurement. The carrier density and mobility of ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 8.51${\times}$10$\^$17/ cm$\^$-3/, 291 $\textrm{cm}^2$/V$.$s at 293 $^{\circ}$K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c - axis of the ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting ΔSo and the crystal field splitting ΔCr were 0.0148 eV and 0.1678 eV at 10 $^{\circ}$K, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement of ZnIn$_2$S$_4$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition (E$\_$X/) typically observed only in high quality crystal and neutral donor bound exciton (D$^{\circ}$,X) having very strong peak intensity. The full width at half maximum and binding energy of neutral donor bound excition were 9 meV and 26 meV, respectively. The activation energy of impurity measured by Haynes rule was 130 meV.

Using Se as a photoconductive element and ZnS as a luminescent element, a Se/ZnS thin film device for light amplifier applications was fabricated and its characteristics were investigated. The Se/ZnS thin film light amplifier was fabricated by evaporating the ZnS thin film on an ITO(Indium Tin Oxide) glass and the Se thin film on the ZnS thin film in sequence. The results of the characteristics investigation are summarized as follows: (1) When the frequency of an excitation voltage was increased, both the brightness response and the brightness saturation of the Se/ZnS thin film light amplifier began to start at a higher light input. (2) The gain of the Se/ZnS thin film light amplifier was dependent upon the amplitude and the frequency of the excitation voltage as well as an external light input. (3) When the Se/ZnS thin film light amplifier was excited by a direct current of a constant voltage, the frequency of the output brightness was\\`equal to the frequency of the input light applied. When the light amplifier was excited by a sinusoidal voltage of 60 Hz, the frequency of the output brightness was 120 Hz.

The Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin film solar cells have been achieved until almost 20% efficiency by NREL. These solar cells include chemically deposited CdS as buffer layer between CIGS absorber layer and ZnO window layer. Although CIGS solar cells with CdS buffer layer show excellent performance, the short wavelength response of CIGS solar cell is limited by narrow CdS band gap of about 2.42 eV. Taking into consideration the environmental aspect, the toxic Cd element should be replaced by a different material. Among Cd-free candidate materials, the CIGS thin film solar cells with ZnS buffer layer seem to be promising with 17.2%(module by showa shell K.K.), 18.6%(small area by NREL). However, ZnS/CIGS solar cells still show lower performance than CdS/CIGS solar cells. There are several reported reasons to reduce the efficiency of ZnS/CIGS solar cells. Nakada reported ZnS thin film had many defects such as stacking faults, pin-holes, so that crytallinity of ZnS thin film is poor, compared to CdS thin film. Additionally, it was known that the hetero-interface between ZnS and CIGS layer made unfavorable band alignment. The unfavorable band alignment hinders electron transport at the heteo-interface. In this study, we focused on growing defect-free ZnS thin film and for favorable band alignment of ZnS/CIGS, bandgap of ZnS and CIGS, valece band structure of ZnS/CIGS were modified. Finally, we verified the photovoltaic properties of ZnS/CIGS solar cells.

Piezoelectric thin film such as ZnO and AlN can be applicable to FBAR (Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator) device of thin film type and FBAR can be applicable to MMIC. The characteristic of FBAR device is variable according to the deposition conditions of piezoelectric thin film when preparation of thin film by sputtering method. In this study, we prepared ZnO thin film for FBAR using Facing Targets Sputtering apparatus which can be deposited fine Quality thin film because temperature increase of substrate due to the bombardment of high-energy particles can be restrained. And crystalline and c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO thin film with deposition conditions was investigated by XRD.

The role of ZnS buffer layer not only suppresses chemical reactions between emission material and insulating material but also alters the luminescence and the crystallinity of the emission layer, if ZnS buffer layer was sandwiched between emission layer and insulating layer of electroluminescent device. In this research, we fabricated ZnS thin film with rf magnetron sputter system by varying rf power 100, 200W, substrate temperature 100, 150, 200, 250.deg. C and post-annealing temperature 200, 300, 400, 500.deg. C and analysed X-ray diffraction pattern, transmission spectra and cross section by SEM photograph for seeking the optimal crystallization condition of ZnS buffer layer. As a result, increasing the rf power, the crystallinity of ZnS thin film was improved. It was found that the ZnS thin film had better properties than anything else when fabricated with the following conditions ; rf power 200W, substrate temperature 150.deg. C, and post-annealing temperature 400.deg. C. ZnS thin film had the transmittance more than 80% in visible range. So it is suitable to use as a buffer layer of electroluminescent devices.

Nanostructured ZnS thin films were grown on the slide glass substrate by the chemical bath deposition using an aqueous so1ution Of ZnSO$_4$and CH$_3$CSNH$_2$at 95$^{\circ}C$. The average grain sizes of the ZnS thin film estimating from the Debye-Scherrer formula are 4.8 nm. The optical transmittance edge of the ZnS thin films (4.0 eV) was shifted to the shelter wavelength compared with that of the bulk ZnS (3.67 eV) due to the quantum size effects. The ZnS thin films showed a strong photoluminescence intensity and a sharp emission band from 410 to 480 nm 3t room temperature. The PWHM of photoluminescence peak was about 40 nm. For the viloet(410 nm) and blue(480 nm) emission of the ZnS thin films, the temperature dependence can be described by an Arrhenius equation with an activation energy of 168 and 157 meV, respectively.

ZnS:Mn thin film was made by coevaporation with Electron Beam Evaparation(EBE) method. And structural and optical characteristics of ZnS:Mn thin films were investigated by substrate temperature annealing temperature and dopant Mn. When ZnS:Mn thin film was well deposited with cubic crystalline at substrate temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$ its surface index was [111] and its lattice constant of a was 5.41$\AA$. Also When ZnA:Mn thin film was well made with hexagonal crystalline at substrate temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$annealing temperature of 50$0^{\circ}C$and annealing time of 60min its miller indices were (0002) (1011), (1012) and (1120). And its lattice constant of a and c was 3.88$\AA$and 12.41$\AA$ respectively. Finally hexagonal ZnS:Mn thin film with dopant Mn of 0.5wt% had fundamental absorption wavelength of 342nm. And so its energy bandgap was about 3.62eV.
