Zinc-tin oxides (ZTO) thin film transistors have been fabricated at different process pressure via re sputtering technique. TFT properties were improved by depositing channel layers at lower pressure. From the analysis of TFTs comprised of multi layer channel, deposited consecutively at different sputtering pressure, it was suggested that the electrical characteristics of TFTs were mainly affected by interfacial layer due to their high conductance, however, the stability under the NBIS condition was influenced by whole bulk layer due to low concentration of positive charges, which might be generated by the oxygen vacancy transition, from Vo0 to $Vo^{2+}$. Those improvements were attributed to increasing sputtered target atoms and decreasing harmful effects of oxygen molecules by adopting low sputtering pressure condition.

Non-passivated electrolytic tinplates withour conventinal chemical treatment self-oxidize in ambient atmosphere to from yellow stain on the outermost surface during the long-term storage. The degree of yellowness of the stain increased linerly with the oxide thickness due to the interfeefence color of the $SnO_2$ Even though the thickness of the oxide layer was very thin, less than 100$\AA$ , it exerts an undesirable influence on the can-making processes, particularly the stripping behavior after ironing. Investigations were carried out on the morphologies of the coating layer, the changes in oxide thickness during successive can-making processes and the averge friction coefficients with the different oxide thinkness. These oxide layers were broken up and distributed within the bulk tin coating during the ironing process. This redistribution of the oxide layer prvented smooth pressing-aside of the tin coating layer, resulting in an increase in the ironing friction coefficient. As the friction was increased, the residual stress along the can wall thinkness(i.e., the hoop stress) was also increased. Due to both the oxibe layer accumulation, which increased the friction coefficient, and the hoop stress, can stripping efficiency without roll-back is reduced.

A study on the improvement of wear resistance of brasses by electroplating and diffusion treatment of tin was carried out. The optimum condition of the treatment obtained was as follows. Plating thickness of tin : 5 - 9 $\mu\textrm{m}$ Condition of diffusion treatment : atmosphere ; fused nitrate bath (KNO3 + NaNO3) temperature and time ; 1st step 320$^{\circ}C$, 60min. and 450$^{\circ}C$, 30min. During the diffusion treatment, internetallic compounds of Cu-Sn were formed and these compounds were identified as η, $\varepsilon$ and $\delta$ phase from the outer tin layer. It was considered that the improvement of wear resistance of brasses by the treatment is because of the formation of intemetallic compounds particalarly $\varepsilon$phase which is very hard, between soft tin layer brass.

In the present study, tin-zinc alloys were coated on a cold-rolled steel sheet with variations of electrolyte concentration, additives quantity and current density employing the Hull cell and circulation cell simulator. With an addition of additives of 2m1/L, tin-zinc deposits containing 10 to 40 percent Zn revealed a good surface appearance with weak acidic electrolytes. The organic additives suppressed the Sn deposition rate and thus increased the zinc contents in tin-zinc coating layers. The zinc contents in the tin-zinc coating layers depended almost linearly on the concentrations of metal ions of tin and zinc. Temperature of the electrolyte affected the composition tin-zinc coating layer. However, the concentration of complexants revealed little effectiveness. The surface morphology of tin-zinc coating showed dense tin and zinc phases with fine equiaxed grains with the high current density.

고밀도집적을 위한 구리기둥주석범프(CPTB)의 제작공정에 흔히 전기도금과 무전해도금이 적용된다. CPTB는 약 $100{\mu}m$ 정도의 피치를 갖도록 먼저 구리도금 층을 전착시킨 다음, 구리의 산화 억제를 위하여 구리기둥 주위에 주석을 입혀 제작한다. 이 과정에서 구리도금 층 두께를 균일하게 형성하는 일은 매우 민감하고 어렵지만 중요한 일이다. 이를 위하여 구리도금 전극 사이에 전류분포 제어를 위한 절연 막(절연게이트)을 형성하여 도금 층의 두께분포를 조절하는 실험을 하였다. 원통형 도금 조에서 중심부를 열어 전류를 흘려주고, 그 외 부분은 가장자리 끝까지 막고 전류를 차단하여 두께분포 변화를 확인하였다.

Resistivity changes and intermetallic growth after thermal aging of Matter tin-plated copper sheet for current collector in fuel cell were investigated to survey the diffusion of Cu into Sn in interface and surface. The results show that the intermetallic growth and resistivity depended on thermal aging temperature and dwell time. In Sn plate on a Cu substrate, $Cu_6Sn_5({\mu})$ and $Cu_3Sn({\varepsilon})$ intermetallics layer were formed at plate/substrate interface. $Cu_6Sn_5({\mu})$ intermetallics layer gradually changed $Cu_3Sn({\varepsilon})$. Moreover Cu get through Sn layer and it was diffused in the surface at $200^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, only $Cu_3Sn({\varepsilon})$ intermetallics layer were formed at plate/substrate interface at $300^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the intermetallics formation, thermal condition and oxidation of surface, causes increase in the resistivity of Tin-plated copper sheet.

We have proposed an Buffer layer to improve the transmittance of ITO. Here, $SiO_2$ and $TiO_2$ were selected as the Buffer layer coating material. The structures of Buffer layer were designed in ITO/$SiO_2/TiO_2$/Glass and ITO/Glass/$TiO_2/SiO_2$. Then, these materials were deposited by ion-assisted deposition system. Transmittances of deposited ITO were 86.14 and 85.07%, respectively. These results show that the proposed structure has higher transmittance than the conventional ITO device.

Optical and electrical properties were studied for Antimony doped tin oxide thin films from precursors containing 10, 30, 50, and 70 atom% of Sb deposited on bare sodalime silica, barrier layer coated sodalime silica, and pure silica glass substrates by sol-gel spinning technique. The direct band gaps were found to vary from 3.13~4.12 eV when measured in the hv range of 2.5~5.0 eV, and varied from 4.22~5.08 eV when measured in the range of 4.0~7.0 eV. Indirect band gap values were in the range of 2.35~3.11 eV. Blue shift of band gap with respect to bulk band gap and Moss-Burstein shift were observed. Physical thickness of the films decreased with the increase in % Sb. Resistivity of the films deposited on SLS substrate was in the order of $10^{-2}$ ohm cm. Sheet resistance of the films deposited on barrier layer coated soda lime silica glass substrate was found to be relatively less.

Top emission organic EL devices were fabricated by using metal-doped cathode interface layer to achieve low drive voltages. Also, facing-targets-type sputtering was used to sputter indium-tin oxide layer on top of organic active layer. The devices fabricated in this study showed reasonably high external quantum efficiency of about 1 % which is comparable to that of bottom-emission-type devices.

Recently, the electron transport layer (ETL) has become one of the key components for high-performance perovskite solar cell (PSC). This study is motivated by the nonreproducible performance of ETL made of spin coated SnO₂ applied to a PSC. We made a comparative study between tin oxide deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) or spin coating to be used as an ETL in N-I-P PSC. 15 nm-thick Tin oxide thin films were deposited by ALD using tetrakisdimethylanmiotin (TDMASn) and using reactant ozone at 120 ℃. PSC using ALD SnO₂ as ETL showed a maximum efficiency of 18.97 %, and PSC using spin coated SnO₂ showed a maximum efficiency of 18.46 %. This is because the short circuit current (Jsc) of PSC using the ALD SnO₂ layer was 0.75 mA/cm² higher than that of the spin coated SnO₂. This result can be attributed to the fact that the electron transfer distance from the perovskite is constant due to the thickness uniformity of ALD SnO₂. Therefore ALD SnO₂ is a candidate as a ETL for use in PSC vacuum deposition.
