Y-Ra-Cu-0 oxide superconductors were fabricated by the sinter-forging method to make the critical current density improve through controlling of microstructure and crystal texture. The grain alignment of oxide superconductor was formed by the sinter-forging process and it's c-axis orientation was parallel to the press direction.The orientation factor of texture increased with sinking temperature and pressure, and also grain alignment was improved by the addition of Ag. As for the sinterforged Y-Ba-Cu-O/Ag sample, the $T_c$(on-set) was not almost varied with the sinter-forging temperature, but $T_c\;^{zero}$ decreased more or less at high sinter-forging temperatures. In addition, it was observed that added-Ag was mainly distributed along the grain boundar~es in the (123) matrix, resulting in the densification of microstructure. From these results, i t was thought that the improvement of $J_c$ over 2000A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ was attributed to the texture, densification of microstructure, and (123) grain growth due to the Ag addition.

Using a rf-magnetron sputtering method, highly c-axis oriented La modified $PbTiO_{3}$ (PLT) ferroelectric thin films with compositions of $(Pb_{1-x}La_{x})Ti_{1-x/4}O_{3}$, where x=0.05, x=0 and x=0.15, have been obtained on (100)MgO single crystal substrate under conditions of low gas pressure. The degree of c-axis orientation of PLT films decreases with increasing gas pressure and with increasing La contant. These films were characterized by X-ray diffraction and SEM. PLT thin films of x=0.05, 0.1 and 0.15 show a low dielectric constant of 218, 246 and 361 at 1 kHz and remanent polarization(Pr) of $9{\mu}C/cm^{2}$, $8{\mu}C/cm^{2}$ and $7{\mu}C/cm^{2}$.

We fabricated ZnO thin film successfully by using RF magnetron sputtering and investigated its potential for being utilized as the key material of piezoelectric device with the characterization of ZnO thin film such as such as crystallinity, surface morphology, c-axis orientation, film density. In thin study, $Ar/O_2$ gas ratio is fixed 70/30, RF power 125W, working pressure 8mTorr, distance between substrate and target 70mm, but the substrate temperature is varied from room temperature to $400^{\circ}C$. The relative intensity ($I_{(002)}/I_{(100)}$) or (002) peak in ZnO thin film deposited at $300^{\circ}$ was exhibited as 94%, then its FWHM was $0.571^{\circ}C$. Also, from the surface morphology evaluated by SEM and AFM, the film deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ showed uniform particle shape and excellent surface roughness of 4.08 m. The tendency of ZnO thin film density was exhibited to be denser with increasing substrate temperature but slightly decreased at near $400^{\circ}C$.

여러 application에 적용하기 위하여 p-type SnO 박막과 전극 간의 접촉 저항을 분석이 필요하였다. 이를 Transmission Line Method(TLM) 패턴 소자를 제작한 후 전기적 특성을 분석함으로써 알 수 있었다. $Si/SiO_2$ 기판에 Reactive Magnetron Sputtering법을 이용하여 c축 우선 배향된 SnO를 100nm 증착하고 photolithography 공정을 통해 전극을 패턴화하여 100nm 두께로 증착하였다. 전극 간 거리는 1, 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, $1024{\mu}m$로 각각 2배씩 증가하는 패턴이고 폭 W는 $300{\mu}m$ 이다. p-type SnO 의 경우, work function이 4.8eV이기 때문에 전극과 ohmic contact이 되기 위해서는 4.8eV보다 높은 work function 값을 가지는 전극이 필요하였다. 이 조건과 맞는 후보로 Ni(5.15eV), ITO(5.3eV)를 설정한 후 소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자는 열처리 하지 않은 소자와 Rapid Thermal Annealing(RTA) 장비에서 $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$에서 각각 1분씩 열처리한 소자의 특성을 분석하였다. 열처리 하지 않은 소자의 경우 Ni 전극의 specific contact resistance는 $3.42E-2{\Omega}$의 값을 나타내었고, ITO의 경우 $3.62E-2{\Omega}$값을 나타내었다.

ZnO thin films were deposited on p-Si(100) and Coming glass 7059 by f magnetron sputtering mothod. The effect of deposition parameters on the electrical, structural and optical properties were investigated. Highly c-axis oriented ZnO thin films were deposited at high rf power. Standard deviation(σ) of X-ray rocking curve of peak at 26θ=34,4˚ ranged from 6.8˚ to 7.2˚, depending on the deposition condition. ZnO thin films deposited on glass substrate eihibited 80% transmittance in the visible range, regardless of the deposition parameters. Resistivity of ZnO thin films was significantly affected by f power and Ar pressure, and ranged widely from 3×102 to 2×109 Ω.

ZnO thin films on glass substrate were deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering at 100 W, 1.33 Pa, Ar/O2=50 : 50, 200$^{\circ}C$, and a target/substrate distance of 4 cm. Crystallinities, surface morphologies, chemical compositions, and electrical properties of the films were investigated by XRD, SEM, AFM, RBS, and electrometer. All films showed a strong preferred c-axis orientation and the chemical stoichiometry. The propagation velocity of ZnO/IDT/glass of single electrode and double electrode types SAW filter was about 2,589 m/sec, 2,533 m/sec and insertion loss was a minimum value of about -11 dB and -21 dB, respectively.

ZnO nanorods array have been grown on the seed crystal coated Si(100) substrate by hydrothermal method. The growth, structural and optical properties of ZnO nanorods array were investigated with a variation of precursor concentration from 0.01 M to 0.04 M. The array density of grown ZnO nanorods per same area was increased with increasing the concentration of precursor solution. Vertically aligned ZnO nanorods with hexagonal wurtzite structure have highly preferred c-axis orientation along (002) lattice plane. Especially, ZnO nanorods array developed from 0.04 M precursor solution showed a diameter of about 85 nm and length of 1.2 {\mu}m$ without any crystallographic defects. The photoluminescence spectra of ZnO nanorods from heavier precursor concentration exhibited stronger UV emission around 380 nm corresponding with near-band-edge emission.

Magnetic properties and microstructures of the $Co_{83}Cr_{17}$ films growing under the applied magnetic field were studied. In comparison, those of the films growing without magnetic field were also studied. Magnetic field does not affect saturation magnetization and in-plane coercivity of the films. On the contrary perpendicular coercivity and effective perpendicular anisotropy field decreased. Grain size and the thickness of the so-called transition layer were not affected and the C-axis alignment of the films was slightly deteriorated due to magnetic field. Also, microstructures of the sputtered films showed larger grain sizes of strong (002) preferred orientation for thicker film specimens independent of applied magnetic field.

We present the results on the applicability of the polycrystalline AIN thin films for a surface acoustic wave filter operating at 800 MHz frequency. The films show the FWHM of 3 .deg. from th X-ray rocking curve, which indicates that the c-axis of the films is pre- ferentially oriented along the growth direction. The fabricated band pass filters exhibit the center frequency of 865 MHz with 3dB band-width of 45 MHz. From the measured frequency response, the electro-mechanical coupling constant of 0.8% and the SAW velocity of 5,709 m/s are obtained. Thus, we conclude that the sputtered AIN films are feasible for the fabrication of uper UHF band SAW filters.

W fabricated thin film using Na$_{0.5}$K$_{0.5}$NbO$_3$ volatile material by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and studied characterization from EM, XRD, P-E. The density and scale of droplet, which is the defect of PLD, was investigated by SEM but large droplet was not found. The degree of assemble oriented C-axis measured with X-ray diffraction suggests that this film oriented C-axis achieved by $\theta$-2$\theta$ scan and rocking curves shows good self-assemble phenomenon, finally $\phi$-scan does that all of the four directions of the lattice in film equals to those of substrate. P-E hysteresis loop shows residual remnant polarization or saturation polarization value, but it is applicable to memories.ies.
