MgO protection layer in ac PDP(plasma display panel) prevents the dielectric layer from ion bombarding in discharge plasma. The MgO layer also has the additional important role in lowering the firing voltage due to a large secondary electron emission coefficient. Until now, the MgO protection layer is mainly prepared by E-beam evaporation. In this study, MgO protection layer is prepared on dielectric layer of ac PDP cell by reactive R.F magnetron sputtering with Mg target under various conditions of oxygen partial pressure. Discharge characteristics of PDP is also studied as a parameter of MgO preparation conditions. The sputtered MgO shows the better discharge characteristics compared with MgO deposited by E-beam evaporator.

MgO protection layer on the dielectric layer in PDP prevents a dielectric layer from sputtering and lowers the firing voltage due to a large $\gamma$-Coefficients. Until now, the MgO protection layer is mainly prepared by E-beam evaporation. However, there are some problems that is easy pollution and change of its characteristics with time and delamination. Therefore in this study. MgO protection layer is prepared on dielectric layer by R.F. magnetron sputtering with Mg target under various conditions. The sputtered MgO shows the better discharge characteristics compared with MgO deposited by E-beam evaporatior.

Ba$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$타겟을 이용 Pt/Ti/SiO/Si 기판 위에 R.F magnetron sputtering 방법으로 BST 박막을 증착하여 다양한 열처리 조건에 따른 BST 박막의 전기적 성질(정전용량, 누설전류)에 대해 박막의 결정성과 미세구조의 연관성에 대하여 연구하였다. BST 박막의 유전상수는 grain size에 영향 받으며, 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 유전상수는 증가함을 보였고 온도에 따른 누설전류는 저전압 영역에서는 Hopping conduction, 고전압 영역에서는 Schottky conduction mechanism을 따르는 것으로 나타났다.

Cadmium sulphide (CdS) films have been prepared on polycarbonate (PC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), and Coming 7059 substrates by r.f. magnetron sputtering technique at room temperature. A comparison of the properties of the films deposited on polymer and glass substrates was performed. In addition, the influence of the sputter power on the structural and optical properties of these films was evaluated.

[ $(Pb_{1.1},La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}.Ti_{0.35})O_3$ ] thin films on the $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$, $TiO_2(interlayer)/Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrate were fabricated by the R.F. magnetron-sputtering method and considered their characteristics depending on $TiO_2$ interlayer. Changing the deposition conditions of $TiO_2$ interlayer, we obtained $TiO_2$ anatase single phase and rutile single phase. PLZT was deposited on these substrates and analyzed by x-ray diffraction(XRD) for there crystallinity and orientation. To investigate $PLZT-TiO_2$, $TiO_2-Pt$ interface, glow discharge spectrometer(GDS) analysis was carried out and we performed electrical measurements for dielectric properties of PLZT thin films. The PLZT thin film on $TiO_2$ anatase interlayer was found to have (110)-preferred orientation and 12.6 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ remaining polarization value.

We developed the ion plating system, consisted of the Facing Target Magnetron Sputtering System and the r.f, electrode of the coil type, which was available to control the reactive and the adhesion between thin film and substrate, and studied about the discharge characteristics and the optimum condition in order to form the high quality thin film. The characteristics of discharge and plasma was measured as Double Probe and Electrostatic Retarding Grid Analyzer. The incident ion energy on the substrate was increased as the increasing r.f power, bias voltage. By the r.f electrode, the ionization rate of the sputtered particles was about 75%, and the mean incident ion energy depend on the value which was difference between the plasma potential and biased substrate potential.

Lanthanum modified lead zirconate titanate ($Pb_{1.1}La_{0.08}Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35}O_3$) thin films were fabricated on indium doped tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass substrate by R.F magnetron sputtering method. The thin films were deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ and post-annealed with various temperature ($550-750^{\circ}C$) by rapid thermal annealing technique. The structure and morphology of the films were characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) respectively. The hysteresis loops and fatigue properties of thin films were measured by precision material analyzer. As the annealing temperature was increased, the remnant polarization value was increased from $10.6{\mu}C/cm^2$ to $31.4{\mu}C/cm^2$, and coercive field was reduced from 79.9 kV/cm to 60.9 kV/cm. As a result of polarization endurance analysis, the remnant polarization of PLZT thin films annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ was decreased 15% after $10^9$ switching cycles using 1MHz square wave form at ${\pm}5V$.

$(Pb_{0.98}La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35})O_3$ (PLZT) thin films with $TiO_2$ buffer layers were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates by an R.F. magnetron sputtering method in order to improve the ferroelectric characteristics of the films. And the ferroelectric properties and crystallinities of the PLZT thin films were investigated in terms of the effects of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ buffer layers between a platinum bottom electrode and PLZT thin film. The ferroelectric properties of the PLZT thin films improved as increasing of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ layers, thereby reaching their maximum at $600^{\circ}C$.

Lithium cobalt oxide thin film cathode, having thickness of $2.9{\mu}m$ with area of $4cm^2$, was deposited on platinum patterned alumina substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Li/Co molar ratio, which is an important factor for battery performance, was measured as a function of argon working pressure and applied R.F. power. Constant current charge and discharge performances were characterized with high rate discharge and cycling behavior. Using AC impedance analysis, internal resistance of the thin film battery was measured and simulated by proposed equivalent circuit model.

$BiFeO_3$ (BFO) thin films were prepared on $Pt/TiO_2/Si$ substrate by r.f. magnetron sputtering. The effects of deposition pressure on electrical properties were investigated using measurement of dielectric properties, leakage current and polarization. When BFO targets were prepared, Fe atoms were substituted with Mn 0.05% to increase electrical resistivity of films. (Fe+Mn)/Bi ratio of BFO thin films increases with increasing partial pressure of $O_2$ gas. The deposited films showed the only BFO phase at 10 mTorr, the coexistence of BFO and $Bi_2O_3$ phase at 30-50 mTorr, and the only $Bi_2O_3$ phase at 70 mTorr. The crystallinity of BFO films was reduced due to the higher Bi contents and the decrease of surface mobility of atoms at high temperature. The porosity and surface roughness of films increased with the increase of the deposition pressure. The films deposited at high pressure showed low dielectric constant and high leakage current. The dielectric constant of films deposited at various deposition pressures was 84${\sim}$153 at 1 kHz. The leakage current density of the films deposited at 10${\sim}$70 mTorr was about $7{\times}10.6{\sim}1.5{\times}10.2A/cm^2$ at 100 kV/cm. The leakage current was found to be closely related to the morphology and composition of the BFO films. BFO films showed poor P-E hysteresis loops due to high leakage current.
