Thin film deposition of InN, which is a less-studied III-nitride compound semiconductor because of the difficulty if crystal growth, was performed by rf reactive sputtering method using In target and $N_2$reactive gas. The structrual, electrical, and optical properties of the produced films were measured and disussed according to the sputtering parameters such as deposition pressure, rf power, and substrate temperature. From the result of deposition pressure, rf power, and substrate temperature, we could obtain optimal conditions of 5m Torr, 60W, $60^{\circ}C$ for preparing InN thin film with high crystallinity, low carrier concentration, and high Hall mobility. The carrier concentration, Hall mobility, and optical bandgap of the fabricated InN thin films at optimal condition were $6.242\times10^{18}cm^{-3}, 212.526cm^2/V\cdot$ｓ, and 1.912eV, respectively.

Molybdenum thin films were deposited on the soda lime glass(SLG) substrates by direct-current planar magnetron sputtering, with a sputtering power density of $4.44W/cm^2$. The working pressure was varied from 0.5 mtorr to 20 mtorr to gain a better understanding of the effect of sputtering pressure on the morphology and microstructure of the Mo film. Thin films of $CU(InGa)Se_2$ (CIGS) were deposited on the Mo-coated glass by three stage co-evaporation process. The highest efficiency device was obtained at the maximum value of the tensive stress. The morphology of Mo-coated films were examined by using scanning electron microscopy The film's microstructure, such as the preferred orientation, the full width at half-maximum(FWHM), and the residual intrinsic stress were examined by X-ray diffraction.

Conductive $SrMoO_3$ thin films were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering with the powder-type sputtering target, and annealed for crystallization. When RTP (rapid thermal processing) in vacuum was applied, the fabricated thin films showed the mixed phases of $SrMoO_3$ and $SrMoO_4$, but $SrMoO_3$ phase could be promoted by the lowering of the working pressure during deposition. In order to eliminate $O_2$ gas during deposition and annealing, further lowering of the working pressure and furnace annealing in hydrogen atmosphere were tried. With the optimization of the deposition and annealing conditions, the thin film with nearly single-phase of $SrMoO_3$ was obtained, and it showed good electrical conduction properties with a low resistivity of $2.5{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at room temperature.

We report on the electrical, optical, and structural properties of indium zinc tin oxide (IZTO) anode films grown at room temperature on glass substrate. The IZTO anode films grown by a RF magnetron sputtering were investigated as functions of RF power, working pressure, and process time in pure Ar ambient. To investigate electrical, optical and structural properties of IZTO anode films, 4-point probe, Hall measurement, UV/Vis spectrometer, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were performed, respectively. A sheet resistance of $13.88\;{\Omega}/{\square}$, average transmittance above 80 % in visible range were obtained from optimized IZTO anode films grown on glass substrate. These results shown the amorphous structure regardless of RF power and working pressure due to low substrate temperature.

RF-magnetron Sputtering Process를 이용하여 Pt/Ti/Si(100)기판위에 lanthanum-modified lead titanate 박막을 제작하였다. 기판온도와 증착시간이 증가함에 따라 증착율은 감소하였다. 기판온도가 증가함에 따라 fine grain들은 large grain으로 변화하였다. Perovskite구조는 기판온도 54$0^{\circ}C$, gas pressure 30mtorr에서 나타나기 시작하였다. 본 실험에서 perovskite 박막제작에 대한 조건은 기판온도 58$0^{\circ}C$, gas pressure 30mtorr였다. Pt/Ti/Si(100) 우선 배향된 박막을 얻었다. La양이 증가함에 따라 유전율, 항전계, 잔류분극량은 증가하였다. 중심주파수가 44.7MHz, 전파속도는 2680m/sec를 가지는 SAW filter 특성을 얻었다.

A rf triode magnetron sputtering system is designed and installed its construction in vacuum chamber. In order to calibrate the rf triode magnetron sputtering for thin films deposition processes, the effects of different glow discharge conditions were investigated in terms of the deposition rate measurements. The basic parameters for calibrating experiment in this sputtering system are rf power input, gas pressure, plasma current, and target-to-substrate distance. Because a knowledge of the deposition rate is necessary to control film thickness and to evaluate optimal conditions which are an important consideration in preparing better thin films, the deposition rates of copper as a testing material under the various sputtering conditions are investigated. Furthermore, a triode sputtering system designed in our team is simulated by the SIMION program. As a result, it is sure that the simulation of electron trajectories in the sputtering system is confined directly above the target surface by the force of $E{\times}B$ field. Finally, some teats with the above 4 different sputtering conditions demonstrate that the deposition rate of rf triode magnetron sputtering is relatively higher than that of the conventional sputtering system. This means that the higher deposition rate is probably caused by a high ion density in the triode and magnetron system. The erosion area of target surface bombarded by Ar ion is sputtered widely on the whole target except on both magnet sides. Therefore, the designed rf triode magnetron sputtering is a powerful deposition system.

BSCCO thin films have been fabricated by co-deposition at an ultralow growth rate using ion beam sputtering(IBS) method. The growth rates of the films was set in the region from 0.17 to 0.27 nm/min. MgO(100) was used as a substrate. In order to appreciate stable existing region of Bi 2212 phase with temperature and ozone pressure, the substrate temperature was varied between 655 and 82$0^{\circ}C$ and the highly condensed ozone gas pressure(PO$_3$) in vacuum chamber was varied between 2.0$\times$10$^{-6}$ and 2.3$\times$10$^{-5}$ Torr. Bi 2212 phase appeared in the temperature range of 750 and 795$^{\circ}C$ and single phase of Bi 2201 existed in the lower region than 785$^{\circ}C$. Whereas, PO$_3$dependance on structural formation was scarcely observed regardless of the pressure variation. And high quality of c-axis oriented Bi 2212 thin film with T$_{c}$(onset) of about 90 K and T$_{c}$(zero) of about 45 K is obtained. Only a small amount of CuO in some films was observed as impurity, and no impurity phase such as CaCuO$_2$was observed in all of the obtained films.lms.

The barrier and optical properties of AlO$_{x}$ thin films on polycarbonate deposited by Reactive Ion Beam Sputtering (RIBS) were investigated at different oxygen partial pressure. We measured the deposition rate of AlO$_{x}$ thin films. As the oxygen partial pres-sure increased, the deposition rate increased then decreased. The changes of deposition rate are associated with the properties of deposited films. The properties of deposited AlO$_{x}$ thin films were studied using X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS), Scan-ning Electron Microscopy (SEM), and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Optimum deposition parameters were found for fabricat-ing aluminum oxide thin films with high optical transparency for visible light and low Oxygen Transmission Rate (OTR). The optical transmittance of AlO$_{x}$ thin film deposited on polycarbonate (PC) showed the same value of bare PC.bare PC.

The Co-Cr films are one of the most suitable candidates for perpendicular magnetic recording media. The facing targets sputtering(FTS) system has a advantage of preparing films over a wide range of working gas pressure on plasma-free substrate. In this study, we investigated the possibility of employing FTS system for depositing Co-Cr films. The Co-Cr thin films were deposited with various sputter gas pressure($P_Ar$, 0.1~10mTorr) by using FTS apparatus at temperature of $40^{\circ}C and 220^{\circ}C$, respectively. Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics were evaluated by x-ray diffractometry (XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM), respectively. Under argon gas pressure at 0.1mTorr, films with morphologically dense microstructure, good c-axis orientation and higher coercivity were obtained. It has been confirmed that the FTS system is very useful for preparing Co-Cr thin film recording media.

In this paper we report upon an investigation into the effect of sputter pressure and RF power on the electrical properties of Gallium doped zinc oxide (GZO) film. GZO films were deposited on glass substrate without substrate temperature by RF magnetron sputtering from a ZnO target mixed with 5 wt% $Ga_2O_3$. Argon gas pressure and RF power were in the range of 1~11 mTorr, and 50~100 W, respectively. However, the resistivity of the film was strongly influenced by the sputter pressure and RF power. We were able to achieve as low as $1.5{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}cm$, without substrate temperature.
