  • TiAlN coatings are available in various industry fields as a wear resistant coating for high-speed machining, due to its high hardness, excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance. The corrosion resistance of TiAlN multilayer coatings is better than that of single TiN coatings. Most of TiAlN coated layers were formed by heat treatment of coating layers with a non-stoichiometric $Ti_xAl_{1-x}N$. In this study, TiAlN coated layer was prepared by R.F magnetron sputtering and investigated the thermal behavior for heat treatment at various temperature in tube furnace. The formation of large particles with porous microstructure and phase change from HCP to FCC were observed on coated layer during heat treatment over $850^{\circ}C$ and it reduced the corrosion resistance of coated TiAlN layers.

  • The PZT thin films werre deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by R. F. magnetron sputtering with $Pb_{1.1}Zr_{0.53}Ti_{0.47}O_3$ target. When interlayers(PbO, $TiO_2$, PbO/$TiO_2$) were inserted between PZT and Pt, the crystallization of the PZT thin films was considerably improved and the processing temperature was lowered. Compared to the pure PZT thin films, dielectric constant, dielectric loss and polarization properties of PZT thin films with interlayers were considerably improved. From XPS depth profile analysis, it was confirmed that PZT thin films and interlayers existed independently. In particular, PZT thin films deposited on interlayer(PbO/$TiO_2$) showed the best dielectric property (${\varepsilon}_r$=414.94, tan${\delta}$=0.0241, Pr=22${\mu}C/cm^2$).

  • The Ti-Al-V-N films have been deposited on various substrates by d.c and r.f reactive magnetron sputtering from a Ti-6Al-4V alloy target in mixed $Ar-N_2$ discharges. The films were investigated by means of XRD, AES, SEM/EDX, microhardness, TG and scratch test. The XRD and SEM results indicated that the films were of single B1 NaCl phase having dense columnar structure with the (111) preferred orientation. The composition of Ti-Al-V-N film was the Ti-7.1Al-4.3V-N(wt%) films. Adhesion and microhardness of Ti-Al-V-N films deposited by r.f magnetron sputtering method were better than those deposited by d.c magnetron sputtering method. The anti-oxidation properties of Ti-Al-V-N films were also superior to that of Ti-N film deposited by the same deposition conditions.

  • CdS films were deposited on glass substrates by R.F. magnetron sputtering method and the films were annealed at various substrate temperatures ranging from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$. Structural properties of the films were studied by X-ray diffraction analysis. The structural parameters as crystallite size have been evaluated. The crystallite sizes were found to increase, and the X-ray diffraction patterns were seen to sharpen by increasing substrate temperatures. X-ray diffraction patterns of these films indicated that they contain both cubic (zincblende) and hexagonal (wurtzite) structures as a mixture. Optical properties of the films were measured at room temperature by using UV/VIS spectrometer in the wavelength range of 190 to 1100nm and optical absorption coefficients were calculated using these data. The energy gap of the films was found to decrease, and the band edge sharpness of the optical absorption was seen to oscillate by annealing. The results show that heat treatments under optimal annealing condition can provide significant improvements in the properties of CdS thin films.

  • The electrical, optical and structural properties of ZnNiO thin _ films deposited on Si substrates using rf-magnetron sputtering method have been investigated before and after the thermal annealing processes. The crystallinity of the ZnNiO thin film become degraded with increasing the Ni contents. This is mainly because the lattice of the thin film was expanded due to the oxygen-deficient conditions. Concerning the electrical properties of the thin film, the carrier concentration increases ($6.81\times10^{14}\textrm{cm}^{-2}$) and Hall mobility decreases (36.3 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vㆍs) with higher doping concentration of Ni. However, the carrier concentration and Hall mobility became low ($1.10\times10^{14}\textrm{cm}^2$ and high (209.6 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vㆍs), respectively, after the thermal annealing process at $1000 ^{\circ}C$. We also observed a strong luminescene center peaking at 546 nm in photoluminescence spectra, which was caused by a deep level center in the ZnO band gap with oxygen deficient ZnNiO structure.

  • In these days, diesel vehicle or power plant emits $NO_X\; and SO_2$ which cause air pollution like acid-rain, ozone layer destroy and optical smoke, therefore there are many kinds of methods considered for removing them such as SCR, catalyst, plasma process, and plasma-catalyst hybrid process. T$TiO_2$ is commonly used as catalyst to remove $NO_X$ gas because it have very excellent chemical characteristic as photo catalyst. In this paper, $NO_X$ sensing characteristic of $TiO_2$ thin film deposited by R.F Magnetron sputtering is investigated. A finger shaped electrode on $Al_2$O$_3$ substrate is designed and $TiO_2$ is deposited on the electrode by the magnetron sputtering deposition system. Chemical composition of the deposited $TiO_2$ thin film is $TiO_{1.9}$ by RBS analysis. When the UV is irradiated on it with flowing air, capacitance of $TiO_2$ thin film increases, however, when NO gas is put into the system with air, it immediately decreases because of photo chemical reaction. and it monotonously decreases with increasing NO concentration.

  • For lithium secondary microbattery anode, the tin oxide thin films with Si addition (0, 2, 6, 10, 20 ㏖%) were prepared with R.F. magnetron sputtering at substrate temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$ and Ar:O$_2$=7:3 atmosphere. As Si addition amount increased, Si-O bonding density increased and Sn-O bonding density decreased. The addition of optimum Si amount led the decrease of Sn oxidation state so that the irreversible capacity reduced and cycle characteristic enhanced during charge-discharge test. SnO$_2$films with 6 ㏖% Si had the highest reversible capacity of 700 mAh/g after 100 cycles.

  • Thin films of vanadium oxide(V$O_x$) have been deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from $V_2$$O_5$ prget in gas mixture of argon and oxygen. Crystal structure, surface morphology, chemical composition and bonding properties of films in-situ annealed in $O_2$ ambient with various heat-treatment conditions are characterized through XRD, SEM, AES, RBS and FTIR measurements. The filrns annealed below 200 $^{\circ}C$are amorphous, and those annealed above 30$0^{\circ}C$ are polycrystalline. The growth of grains and the transition of vanadium oxide into the higher oxide have been obsenred with increasing the annealing temperature and time. The increase of O/V ratio with increasing the annealing temperature and time is attributed to the diffusion of oxygen and the partial filling of oxygen vacancies. It is observed that the oxygen atoms located on the V-0 plane of $V_2$$O_5$ layer participate more readily in the oxidation process.
