Recently, the ceramics of high permittivity are applied to DRAM and FRAM. In this study, (Ba, Sr)$TiO_3$ (BST) ceramics thin films were prepared by Sol-Gel method. BST solution was made and spin-coated on Pt/$SiO_2$/Si substrate at 4000[rpm] for 10 seconds. Coating process was repeated 3 times and then sintered at $750[^{\circ}C]$ for 30 minutes. Each specimen was analyzed structure and electrical characteristics. Thickness of BST ceramics thin films are about $2000[\AA]$. Dielectric constant and loss of thin films was little decreased at $1[kHz]{\sim}1[MHz]$. Dielectric constant and loss to frequency were 250 and 0.02 in BST3. In accordance with applied voltage, property of leakage current was stability when the was $0{\sim}3$[V]. According to voltage, leakage current was increased exponentially at $4{\sim}7$[V].

Recently, many lead-free piezoelectric materials have been investigated for the replacement of existing Pb-based piezoelectric ceramics because of globally increasing environmental interest. There has been remarkable improvement in piezoelectric properties of some lead-free ceramics such as $(Bi,Na)TiO_3-(Bi,K)TiO_3-BaTiO_3$, $(Na,K)NbO_3-LiSbO_3$, and so on. However, no one still has comparable piezoelectric properties to lead-based materials. Therefore, new lead-free piezoelectric ceramics are required. $BiFeO_3$ has a rhombohedrally distorted perovskite structure at room temperature and a very high Curie temperature ($T_C$= 1,100 K). And a very large electric polarization of 50 ~ 60 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ has been reported both in epitaxial thin film and single crystal $BiFeO_3$. Therefore, a high piezoelectric effect is expected also in a $BiFeO_3$ ceramics. The recent research activities on $BiFeO_3$ or $BiFeO_3$-based solid solutions are reviewed in this article.

형광체로서 ZnS를 사용하고 BST 강유전체 박막을 절연체로 사용한 전계발광소자를 제작하고 그 특성을 조사하였다. 형광체로는 청색 및 녹색발광을 위해 각각 $ZnS:AgF_3$와 ZnS:$TbF_3$를 사용하였으며 적색을 위해 ZnS:Mn과 $ZnS:SmF_3$를 사용했다. 이들의 형광체가 증착 도중에 분해되는 것을 막기 위해 석영관에 그들을 각각 봉입해서 열처리하여 결정화시킨 후에 진공증착원으로 사용하였다. 한편 절연층으로 사용한 BST박막은 $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$세라믹스 타겟을 사용하여 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 제조하였다. 이때 기판온도, 분위기압 및 작동기체인 $Ar:O_2$의 비가 각각 $400^{\circ}C$, 30 mTorr 및 9:1이였다. 각 형광체의 두께는 150 nm씩 합계 600 nm였고, 절연층은 상부가 400 nm 및 하두가 200 nm이었다. 이와 같이 만든 박막 전계발광소자의 발광 문턱전압은 $75\;V_{rms}$이고, 최고 휘도는 $100\;V_{rms}$에서 $3200\;cd/m^2$이었다. 그리고 절연층의 유전상수는 1 kHz에서 254이다.

[ $Ba_2NaNb_5O_{15}$ ]은 orthorhombic tungsten bronze 결정구조를 갖는 강유전체로서, 단결정의 경우 $LiNbO_3$에 비해 우수한 비선형 전광계수 값을 나타내는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 또한 주목할만한 초전, 압전, 강유전특성을 나타내고 있다. 본 연구에서는 다른 강유전체박막에 비하여 상대적으로 연구가 덜 이루어진 BNN 박막을 세라믹 타겟을 사용하여 이온빔 보조 증착법을 사용하여 제조하였으며, $Ar/O_2$ 분위기에서 증착된 BNN 박막에 대한 결정화 및 배향 특성을 고찰하였고, 이에 따른 전기적 특성의 변화를 살펴보았다. 연구에 사용된 기판은 $Pt(100)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si(100)$이었으며, 이온빔 보조 증착법에서 보조 이온빔의 에너지를 $0{\sim}400eV$로 변화 시키며 BNN 박막을 증착한 후, 열처리하였다. BNN 박막의 전기적 특성은 MFM 박막 커패시터의 형태로 제조하여 강유전 특성에 대해 살펴보았다.

Dual mode resonators were fabricated using high temperature superconductor. The deposited material was $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(YBCO) on MgO(100) substrate using pulsed laser deposition. Dual mode resonators were patterned by standard photolithography process and wet etching. At the back-side of the substrate, the ground plane with the metal layer of Ti and Ag was fabricated. The transition temperatures of YBCO films were 85-88 K, and network analyzer was used for testing the performance of the resonators. The input/output feedline angles of each resonator were $60^{\circ}$and $100^{\circ}$. The resonant frequency of resonators was 10 GHz. In this paper, dual mode resonator was fabricated for the application of satellite communication.

This study realized low-temperature crystallization process of the $Ba_{0.6}Sr_{0.4}TiO_3$ (BST) thin films without thermal damage of substrate using excimer laser annealing (ELA) and structural and electrical characteristics were investigated. The amorphous BST thin films were prepared on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate by sol-gel method at $250^{\circ}C$. The ELA was carried out using KrF excimer laser which provided excitation wavelength of 248 nm. The beam homogenizing system was used in order to homogenize beam shape of Gaussian fit. The XRD and SEM were used to analyze structural characteristics and the microwave capacitance, dielectric loss and tunability of the BST films were measured by a symmetrical stripline resonator method with shorted end. Consequently, the crystallinity of BST thin films were improved after ELA process and RF tunable capacitor was demonstrated at low temperature below $300^{\circ}C$.

In this work, a CPW resonator was designed and fabricated to investigate the basic microwave properties, such as effective dielectric constant, of BST thin films. Their properties were used as basic data to simulate and design CPW tunable bandpass filter. We also report on gold/$Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) ferroelectric thin film C-band tunable bandpass filters(BPFs) designed and fabricated on magnesium oxide substrates using CPW structure. The 2 pole filter was designed for a center frequency of 5.88 GHz with a bandwidth of 9 %. The BST based CPW filter offers a high sensitivity parameter as well as a low loss parameter. The tuning range for the bandpass filter with CPW structure was determined to be 170 MHz.

We report the growth of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) thin films and their substrate-dependent electrical characteristics. BST thin films were deposited on alumina(non-single crystal), $Al_2O_3$(100) substrates by Nd:YAG Pulsed Laser Deposition(PLD) with a 355nm wavelength at substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and post-deposition annealing at $750^{\circ}C$ in flowing $O_2$ atmosphere for 1hours. BST materials had been chosen due to high dielectric permittivity and tunability for high frequency applications, To analyze the oxygen partial pressure effects, deposited films at 1, 10, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300 mTorr. The effects of oxygen pressure on structural properties of the deposited films have been investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and atomic force microscope(AFM), respectively. Then we manufactured a inter-digital capacitor(IDC) patterns twenty fingers and $10{\mu}m$ gap, $700{\mu}m$ length and electrical properties were characterized. The results provide a basis for understanding the growth mechanisms and basic structural and electrical properties of BST thin films as required for tunable microwave devices applications such as varactors and tunable filters.

Most high-k materials are well known not to be etched easily, Some problems such as low etch rate poor sidewall angle, plasma damage, and process complexity were emerged from the high-density DRAM fabrication. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) by a damascene process was proposed to pattern this high-k material was polished with some commercial silica slurry as a function of pH variation. Sufficient removal rate with adequate selectivity to realize the pattern mask of tera-ethyl ortho-silicate (TEOS) film for the vertical sidewall angle were obtained. The changes of X-ray diffraction pattern and dielectric constant by CMP process were negligible. The planarization was also achieved for the subsequent multi-level processes. Our new CMP approach will provide a guideline for effective patterning of high-k material by CMP technique.

YBCO do superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometers based on bicrystal Josephson junctions on 10 mm ${\times}$ 10 mm $SrTiO_3$ substrates have been fabricated. The pickup coil of the device was designed to have 16 parallel loops with 50-fm-wide lines. We could obtain optimised direct coupled YBCO SQUID magnetometer design with field sensitivity $B_{N}$ $\Phi$/ of $4.5 nT/\Phi_{0}$ and magnetic field noise $B_{N}$ of about $22 fT/Hz^{1}$2/ with an I/f corner frequency of 2 Hz measured inside a magnetically shielded room. Preliminary results of magnetocardiograph measurement using the HTS SQUID magnetometers show signal to noise ratio of about 110, which is comparable to the quality of a commercial MCG system based on Nb-SQUIDs.
