Titanium oxide thin films were prepared on Si(100) substrates by R.F. magnetron reactive sputtering at $30\sim200watt$ R.F power range, and annealed at $600^{\circ}C\sim800^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The properties of $TiO_2$ thin films were analyzed using x-ray, ${\alpha}-step$, ellipsometer, scanning electron microscopy, and FT-IR spectrometer. Upon in-situ depositions, the initial phase of $TiO_2$ thin film showed non-crystalline phase at R.F. power $30\sim100$ watt. The crosssection of $TiO_2$ thin films were sbserved to be the columnar structure. With the increasing R.F power and annealing temperature, the grain size, crystallinity, refractive index, and void size of titanium oxides showed a tended to increase. The FT-IR transmittance spectra of titanium oxide thin films have the obsorption band of Ti-O bond, Si-O bond, Si-O-Ti bond and O-H bond. With the increase of R.F. power and annealing temperature, these films have the stronger bond structures. It is considered that such a phenomena is due to phase transition and good crystallinity

In order to observe the microstructure and morphology of porous titanium -oxide thin film, deposition is performed under a higher Ar gas pressure than is used in the general titanium thin film production method. Black titanium thin film is deposited on stainless steel wire and Cu thin plate at a pressure of about 12 Pa, but lustrous thin film is deposited at lower pressure. The black titanium thin film has a larger apparent thickness than that of the glossy thin film. As a result of scanning electron microscope observation, it is seen that the black thin film has an extremely porous structure and consists of a separated column with periodic step differences on the sides. In this configuration, due to the shadowing effect, the nuclei formed on the substrate periodically grow to form a step. The surface area of the black thin film on the Cu thin plate changes with the bias potential. It has been found that the bias of the small negative is effective in increasing the surface area of the black titanium thin film. These results suggest that porous titanium-oxide thin film can be fabricated by applying the appropriate oxidation process to black titanium thin film composed of separated columns.

Titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) films are deposited on the indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate in an $Ar/O_2$ atmosphere by using reactive RF (Radio Frequency) magnetron sputtering technique, and Electrochromic properties and durability of $TiO_2$ films deposited at different preparation conditions are investigated by using UV-VIS spectrophotometer and cyclic voltammetry Li+ interalation/deintercalation in $TiO_2$ films shows that the electrochromic properties and durability of as-deposited films strongly depend on gas pressure $TiO_2$ films formed in our sputtering conditions are found to remain transparent, irrespective of their Li+ ion contents. The optimum sputtering conditions for film as passive counter electrode in electrochromic devices are working pressure of $1.0\;{\times}\;10^{-2}\;torr$ and oxygen flow raes of $10{\sim}15\;sccm$, respectively.

The oxides of group IV transition metals such as titanium, zirconium, hafnium have many important current and future application, including protective coatings, sensors and dielectric layers in thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) devices. Recently, group IV transition metal oxide films have been intensively investigated as replacements for SiO2. Due to high permittivities (k~14-25) compared with SiO2 (k~3.9), large band-gaps, large band offsets and high thermodynamic stability on silicon. Herein, we report the synthesis of new group IV transition metal complexes as useful precursors to deposit their oxide thin films using chemical vapor deposition technique. The complexes were characterized by FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Newly synthesised compounds show high volatility and thermal stability, so we are trying to deposit metal oxide thin films using the complexes by Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD).

낮은 산소 부분압과 긴 타깃-기판 거리에서 DC 반응이온 마그네트론 스퍼터링(reactive magnetron sputtering ; RMS) 방법으로 $TiO_2$ 박막을 증착하였으며, 증착되는 박막에 end-Hall 이온 소스를 이용하여 아르곤 이온빔 보조 증착을 해 주었다. $TiO_2$ 박막의 광학적 특성은 분광광도계에서 측정된 투과율과 반사율 스펙트럼을 이용하여 분석하였고, 구조적 특성은 AFM과 XRD를 이용하여 분석하였다. 이온빔 보조 RMS 방법으로 증착된 $TiO_2$ 박막은 일반적인 RMS로 증착된 박막보다 조밀도가 높고, 흡수가 낮으며, 표면거칠기가 작았다. 본 연구에서는 이온빔 보조 RMS 방법이 유전체 광학박막 코팅에 적용될 수 있음을 보여준다.

본 연구에서는 티타늄(Ti) 금속 박막을 사용해서 값비싼 산화주석(FTO) 전극을 대체된 염료감응형 태양전지(DSSC)의 제작 방법과 전기적 특성에 대해서 고찰하였다. Ti 박막의 증착 시간을 조절하여 박막의 두께를 변화시켰으며, Ti 박막의 두께가 두꺼워지면서 표면저항은 감소하였다. 대략 190nm 두께에서 FTO 박막의 표면저항과 비슷해짐을 알 수 있었으며, 250nm 두께에서 DSSC의 에너지 변환효율 4.24%로 가장 높았다. 더 나아가 DSSC 모듈을 제작해 평가함으로써 상용화의 가능성을 확인하였다.

Transparent and conducting titanium doped indium oxide (TIO) thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering on zinc oxide (ZnO)-coated glass substrates to investigate the effect of the ZnO buffer layer on optical and electrical properties of TIO/ZnO bi-layered films. TIO 90 nm / ZnO 10 nm films having a lower resistivity (3.09×10^-3 Ωcm) and a higher visible transmittance (80.3%) than other TIO/ZnO films were prepared in this study. Figure of merit results indicate that a 10 nm thick ZnO thin film is an effective buffer layer that enhances optical transmittance and electrical conductivity of TIO films without intentional substrate heating or post-deposition annealing.

Titanium dioxide thin films were fabricated as hydrogen sensors and its sensing properties were tested. The titanium was deposited on a $SiO_2$/Si substrate by the DC magnetron sputtering method and was oxidized at an optimized temperature of $850^{\circ}C$ in air. The titanium film originally had smooth surface morphology, but the film agglomerated to nano-size grains when the temperature reached oxidation temperature where it formed titanium oxide with a rutile structure. The oxide thin film formed by grains of tens of nanometers size also showed many short cracks and voids between the grains. The response to 1% hydrogen gas was ${\sim}2{\times}10^6$ at the optimum sensing temperature of $200^{\circ}C$, and ${\sim}10^3$ at room temperature. This extremely high sensitivity of the thin film to hydrogen was due partly to the porous structure of the nano-sized sensing particles. Other sensor properties were also examined.
