본 논문에서는 p-type (100)Si, (100)MgO 그리고 MgO/si 기판 위에 RF Magnetron sputtering 법으로 $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST)박막을 증착하였다. BST 박막 증착 후 RTA(Rapid Thermal Annealing)를 이용하여 $600^{\circ}C$에서 산소분위기로 1분간 고온 급속 열처리를 하였다. 증착된 BST박막의 결정화를 조사하기 위해 XRD(X-Ray Diffraction)측정을 한 결과 모든 기판에서 (110) $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(의 주피크가 관찰되어졌고, 열처리 후 재결정화에 기인하여 피크 세기가 증가함을 관찰할 수 있었다. Al 전극을 이용한 커패시터 제작 후 측정한 C-V(Capacitance-Voltage) 특성에서 각각의 기판에서 측정된 커패시턴스 값으로 계산된 유전율은 120(bare Si), 305(Mgo/Si) 그리고 310(MgO)이었다. 누설 전류 특성에서는 0.3 MV/cm이내의 인가전계에서 1 $\mu\textrm{A/cm}^2$ 이하의 안정된 값을 보여주었다. 결론적으로 MgO 버퍼층을 이용한 기판이 BST 박막의 증착을 위한 기판으로써 효과적임을 알 수 있었다.

100keV $O^+$이온 빔에 의해 형성된 separation by implanted oxygen(SIMOX) silicon on insulator (SOI)의 열처리 전후의 계면 구조를 high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM)을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 실리콘 주입 온도 $550^{\circ}C$에서 ~$5\times 10^{17}\textrm{cm}^{-2}O^+$를 주입한 직후의 계면은 매우 거칠고 산화물 석출, stacking fault, coesite $SiO_2$ 상 석출물 등 여러 가지 형태의 결함들을 가지고 있었다. 반면, 이것을 $1300^{\circ}C$에서 열처리한 후의 계면은 매우 편편하고 잘 정의된 계면으로 변하였다. 열처리후의 계면은 HRTEM을 통해서 3keV$O_2^\;+$이온 빔에 의해 형성된 산화막 계면, 그리고 게이트 산화막으로 사용되는 ~ 6nm열 산화막 계면과 비교하여 볼 때 비슷한 수준의 roughness를 보여 주었다.

The resistive random access memory (ReRAM) has several advantages to apply next generation non-volatile memory device, because of fast switching time, long retentions, and large memory windows. The high mobility of monolayered graphene showed several possibilities for scale down and electrical property enhancement of memory device. In this study, the monolayered graphene grown by chemical vapor deposition was transferred to $SiO_2$ (100 nm)/Si substrate and glass by using PMMA coating method. For formation of metal-oxide nanoparticles, we used a chemical reaction between metal films and polyamic acid layer. The 50-nm thick BPDA-PDA polyamic acid layer was coated on the graphene layer. Through soft baking at $125^{\circ}C$ or 30 min, solvent in polyimide layer was removed. Then, 5-nm-thick indium layer was deposited by using thermal evaporator at room temperature. And then, the second polyimide layer was coated on the indium thin film. After remove solvent and open bottom graphene layer, the samples were annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ or 1 hr by using furnace in $N_2$ ambient. The average diameter and density of nanoparticle were depending on annealing temperature and times. During annealing process, the metal and oxygen ions combined to create $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle in the polyimide layer. The electrical properties of $In_2O_3$ nanoparticle ReRAM such as current-voltage curve, operation speed and retention discussed for applictions of transparent and flexible hybrid ReRAM device.

Ferroelectric Bi$_{3.35}$Sm$_{0.65}$Ti$_{3}$O$_{12}$(BSmT) thin films were synthesized using a sol-gel process. Bi(TMHD)$_{3}$, Sm$_{5}$(O$^{i}$Pr)13, Ti(O$^{i}$Pr)4 were used as the precursors, which were dissolved in 2­methoxyethanol. The BSmT thin films were deposited on Pt/TiO$_{x}$/SiO$_{2}$/Si substrates by spin­coating. The electrical properties of the thin films were enhanced using rapid thermal annealing process (RTA) at 600 $^{circ}$C for 1 min in O$_{2}$. Thereafter, the thin films were annealed from 600 to 720 $^{circ}$C in oxygen ambient for 1 hr, which was followed by post-annealed for 1 hr after depositing a Pt electrode to enhance the electrical properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to analyze the crystallinity and surface morphology of layered perovskite phase, respectively. The remanent polarization value of the BSmT thin films annealed at 720 $^{circ}$C after the RTA treatment was 35.31 $\mu$C/cmz at an applied voltage of 5 V.

We deposited $Al_2O_3$ thin films on GaN by remote plasma atomic layer deposition (RPALD) technique, trimethylaluminum(TMA) and oxygen were used as precursors, at fixed process condition, the number of cycle were changed. Growth rate per cycle was $1.2\;{\AA}$/cycle. and Growth rate was in proportion to a number of cycle, the GaN MIS capacitors that $Al_2O_3$ thin film were deposited above 12 nm, have excellent electrical properties, a low electrical leakage current density(${\sim}10^{-10}\;A/cm^2$ at 1.5 MV), but below 12 nm, we can see the degradation of the leakage current density. After post deposition annealing, Dielectric constant was estimated by 1 MHz high-frequency C-V method, it was varied with the anealing temperature from 6.9 at no post anealed to 7.6 at $800^{\circ}C$, and we can see a improvement of the leakage current density and breakdown voltage by post deposition anealing below $700^{\circ}C$, but, after anealed at $800^{\circ}C$, we can see the degradation of the leakage current density and breakdown voltage.

In the present work, we studied effect of the deposition parameters on the structure and properties of ZnO films deposited by DC arc plasmatron. The varied parameters were gas flow rates, precursor composition, substrate temperature and post-deposition annealing temperature. Vapor of Zinc acetylacetone was used as source materials, oxygen was used as working gas and argon was used as the cathode protective gas and a transport gas for the vapor. The plasmatron power was varied in the range of 700-1,500 watts. Flow rate of the gases and substrate temperature rate were varied in the wide range to optimize the properties of the deposited coatings. After deposition films were annealed in the hydrogen atmosphere in the wide range of temperatures. Structure of coatings was investigated using XRD and SEM. Chemical composition was analyzed using x-ray photo-electron spectroscopy. Sheet conductivity was measured by 4-point probe method. Optical properties of the transparent ZnO-based coatings were studied by the spectroscopy. It was shown that deposition by a DC Arc plasmatron can be used for low-cost production of zinc oxide films with good optical and electrical properties. Sheet resistance of 4 Ohms cm was achieved after the deposition and 30 min annealing in the hydrogen at $350^{\circ}C$. Elevation of the substrate temperature during the deposition process up to $350^{\circ}C$ leads to decreasing of the film's resistance due to rearrangement of the crystalline structure.

Organic semiconductors have received tremendous attention for their research because of their tunable electrical and optical properties that can be achieved by changing their molecular structure. However, organic materials are inherently unstable in the presence of oxygen and moisture. Therefore, it is necessary to develop moisture and air stable semiconducting materials that can replace conventional organic semiconductors. In this study, we developed a NiO_x thin film through a solution process. The electrical characteristics of the NiO_x thin film, depending on the thermal annealing temperature and UV-ozone treatment, were determined by applying them to the hole injection layer of an organic light-emitting diode. A high annealing temperature of 500 ℃ and UV-ozone treatment enhanced the conductivity of the NiO_x thin films. The optimized NiO_x exhibited beneficial hole injection properties comparable those of 1,4,5,8,9,11-hexaazatriphenylene hexacarbonitrile (HAT-CN), a conventional organic hole injection layer. As a result, both devices exhibited similar power efficiencies and the comparable electroluminescent spectra. We believe that NiO_x could be a potential solution which can provide robustness to conventional organic semiconductors.

$TiN_xO_y/TiN_x$ multi-layer thin films with a high resistance(${\sim}k{\Omega}$) were deposited on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates at room temperature by sputtering. The $TiN_x$ thin films show island and smooth surface morphology in samples prepared by ${\alpha}$ and RF magnetron sputtering, respectively. $TiN_xO_y/TiN_x$ multi-layer in has been developed to control temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR) by the incorporation of $TiN_x$ layer(positive TCR) inserted into $TiN_xO_y$ layers(negative TCR). Electrical and structural properties of sputtered $TiN_xO_y/TiN_x$ multi-layer films were investigated as a function of annealing temperature. In order to achieve a stable high resistivity, multi-layer films were annealed at various temperatures in oxygen ambient. Samples annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ for 1 min exhibited good TCR value of approximately $-54 ppm/^{\circ}C$ and a stable high resistivity around $20k{\Omega}/sq$. with good reversibility.

본 연구에서는 Mg을 첨가한 Cu-alloy에 의해 TiN의 확산방지능력을 향상시키고자 하였다. Cu(Mg) 박막은 대기노출시킨 TiN박막위에 증착되었으며 열처리시 Cu 박막내의 Mg은 TiN의 표면에 있는 산소와 반응하여 매우 얇은(~100 $\AA$) MgO를 형성하게되고 MgO에 의해 TiN의 확산방지능력은 Cu(4.5 at.%Mg)의 경우 $800^{\circ}C$까지 향상됨을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 Cu(Mg) a]toy는 TiN위에서 접착특성이 좋지 않기 때문에 TiN을 $O_2$plasma 처리하였으며 $O_2$ plasma 처리후 $300^{\circ}C$ 진공열처리를 통해 접착력이 크게 향상되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이는 $O_2$ plasma 처리에 의해 TiN표면에 Mg과 반응할 수 있는 산소의 양이 증가하는 데 기인하며 이에 따라 Mg의 계면이동이 크게 증가되어 치밀한 MgO가 형성됨을 확인하였다. 그리고 $O_2$ plasma 처리시 RF power를 증가시키면 계면으로 이동하는 Mg의 양이 오히려 감소하였고 이것은 TiN의 표면이 $TiO_2$로 변하여 Mg과 결합할 수 있는 산소의 양이 상대적으로 감소하였기 때문인 것으로 생각된다. 또한 접착층으로서 Si을 50$\AA$ 증착하여 접착력을 크게 향상시켰으며 Si 증착에 의한 TiN의 확산방지능력은 감소되지 않는 것을 알 수 있었다.

Zr을 $8\%$ 첨가한 BZT 세라믹스를 종결정과 소재봉으로 사용하여 floating zone technique법으로 $Ba(Zr_{0.08}Ti_{0.92})O_3$ 다결정을 성장하였다. 열처리 효과를 알아보기 위하여 성장한 결정의 일부를 떼어내어 $1,200^{\circ}C$에서 10시간동안 산소 분위기에서 열처리하였다. $-100^{\circ}C$에서 $+150^{\circ}C$ 온도 영역에서 유전상수 및 유전손실을 10kHz, 100kHz, 그리고 1 MHz에서 측정하여 성장 결정의 유전특성을 알아보았다. 상온($27^{\circ}C$)과 저온($-73^{\circ}C$)에서 직류전장(-15kV/cm$\le$E$\le$15kV/cm)을 인가하면서 유전상수의 변화를 10kHz와 100kHz에서 측정함으로써 유전상수의 전장의존성을 알아보았다. 산소 열처리는 상온에서 10kHz의 튜너빌리티를 $47.5\%$에서 $51\%$로, 그리고 성능지수를 39.6에서 46.4로 향상시키었다. 바이어스 직류전장을 15kV/cm 이상 인가하면 성능지수가 46.4 이상으로 향상될 수 있으므로 이 물질이 마이크로파 전장 조절 소자에 응용될 수 있는 가능성이 있다.
