  • Vanadium oxide thin films (VOx) have been deposited by RF magnetron sputtering from $V_2O_5$ target under different oxygen partial pressure ratios(0%, 10%) and substrate temperatures$(27^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C)$. Crystallographic structure and morphology of the films are studied by XRD and SEM. Humidity-sensing properties of resistive sensors having interdigitated electrode structure are characterized through electrical conduction measurements. The films deposited at room temperature are amorphous whereas the ones deposited above foot are polycrystalline. The sensors show good response to humidity over 20%RH to 80%RH. Vanadium oxide thin films deposited with $0%O_2$ partial pressure at $400^{\circ}C$ exhibit greater sensitivity to humidity change than others.

  • The Co-Cr-Ta 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 substrates. In this study, we investigated the effect underlayers on the growths layers of Co-Cr-Ta recording layers. The Co-Cr-Ta/Ti(CoCr) double layers were deposited with sputter gas pressure$(P_N, 0.3-1mTorr)$ by using FTS apparatus at temperature of$40^{\circ}C~-300^{\circ}C$, respectively. Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics were evaluated by x-ray diffractometry(XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM), respectively.

  • We prepared Co-Cr thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media with facing targets sputtering system(FTS system) which can deposit a high quality thin film in plasma-free state and wide range of working pressure. The effect of sputtering conditions(argon gas pressure and substrate temperature) on the magnetic and the crystallographic characteristic of Co-Cr thin film was investigated. And the variation of perpendicular coercivity with the variation of film thickness was studied. As a result we obtained the high perpendicular coercivity of 1900Oe and the good dispersion angle of c-axis($\Delta$$\theta$$_{50}$) of 5$^{\circ}$on the film thickness of 100nm for the promising recording layer of perpendicular magnetic recording media.c recording media.a.

  • The optical properties of WO$_3$thin films deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering were studied. The substrate was an ITO(indium-tin-oxide) glass(100$\Omega$/ ). The optical properties are examined by different deposition conditions. RF power, substrate temperature, $O_2$concentraction. Ar flow rate, working pressure and thickness are 40~60W, 25~30$0^{\circ}C$, 10%, 54~72sccm, 5~20m7orr and 1200~2400$\AA$, respectively. All these films were colorless, light yellow and found to be amorphous in structure by X-ray diffraction analysis. When RF power, substrate temperature, $O_2$concentraction, Ar flow rate, working pressure and thickness are 40W, $25^{\circ}C$, 10%, 72sccm, 20mTorr and 2400$\AA$, respectively the values of transmittance of the WO$_3$thin films in visible region are about 80%.

  • The Facing Targets Sputtering(FTS) system has several advantages for preparing films over a wide range of working gas pressure on plasma-free substrates. Co-Cr thin films seem to be one of the most promising media for perpendicular magnetic recording system. In this study, the capabillities of the system fordepositing C0-Cr films have been investigated. Under various Ar gas pressure, films with morphologically dense microstructure and good c-axis orientation were deposited, even when the incident angle $\psi_x$ of sputtered part icles to the film plane was below abount $50^{\circ}C$. this may imply that the shadowing effect by obique incidence of particle can be compensated by rapid surface diffusion owing to the high kinetic energy of particles arriving at the growing film. It has been confirmed that the FTS system is very useful for perparing Co-Cr thin films recorging media.

  • In this study the ITO thin films were prepared by using FTS(Facing Targets Sputtering) system. The electric characteristics, transmittance, surface roughness of ITO thin films were investigated as a function of varying input current and working gas pressure at room temperature. As a result, the ITO thin film was fabricated with resistivity $6{\times}10^{-4}[\Omega{\cdot}cm]$, carrier mobility $52.11[cm^2/V{\cdot}sec]$, carrier concentration $1.72{\times}10^{20}[cm^{-3}]$ of ITO thin film at working pressure 1mTorr and input current 0.6A.

  • 반사방지막 코팅(Anti-reflection coating)은 태양전지(Solar cell), 발광다이오드(LED) 등의 반사율을 낮추어 효율을 증대시키기 위하여 사용되고 있다. 본 실험에서는 유리 기판 위에 실리콘 타겟을 이용한 Reactive magnetron sputtering 장비를 활용하여, 50~100 mTorr의 높은 공정 압력(High pressure)에서 증착하여 SiO2 반사방지막 코팅층을 형성하였다. Ellipsometer를 이용하여 SiO2 박막층의 굴절률(Refractive index)을 측정한 결과, 공정 압력에 따라 SiO2 박막이 다양한 굴절률을 가지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, UV-Vis spectrometer를 이용하여, 450~600 nm 파장에서의 반사율(Reflectance)과 투과율(Transmittance)을 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. 나아가 증착된 SiO2 반사방지막을 비정질 실리콘 박막 태양전지에 적용하여 효율 향상 효과를 실험하였다. 이를 활용하여 낮은 굴절률을 갖는 반사방지용 SiO2 코팅층을 형성하여 태양전지의 광 변환 효율을 상승 시킬 수 있고, 발광다이오드의 광 추출 효율을 증가시킬 있을 것으로 여겨진다.

  • Indium tin oxide films were deposited on unheated PET substrates by DC reactive magnetron sputtering of In-Sn (90-10 wt%) metallic alloy target. Electrical and optical properties of as-deposited films were systematically studied by control of the deposition parameters such as working pressure, DC power, and oxygen partial pressure. The figures of merit are important factors that summarize briefly the relationship between electrical and optical properties of transparent conducting films. The formulae of T/R$\sub$sh/ and T$\^$10//R$\sub$sh/ are expressed as a function of transmittance and sheet resistance. The best values of those figures of merit were approximately 38.6 and 8.95 (x10$\^$-3/Ω$\^$-1/), respectively.
