Bottom-gate tin oxide ($SnO_2$) thin film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated on $N^+$ Si wafers used as gate electrodes. 60-nm-thick $SnO_2$ thin films acting as active layers were sputtered on $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ films. The $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ films deposited on the Si wafers were employed for gate dielectrics. In order to increase the resistivity of the $SnO_2$ thin films, oxygen mixed with argon was introduced into the chamber during the sputtering. The mobility of $SnO_2$ TFTs was measured as a function of the flow ratio of oxygen to argon ($O_2/Ar$). The mobility variation with $O_2/Ar$ was analyzed through studies on crystallinity, oxygen binding state, optical properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) were carried out to observe the crystallinity and oxygen binding state of $SnO_2$ films. The mobility decreased with increasing $O_2/Ar$. It was found that the decrease of the mobility is mainly due to the decrease in the polarizability of $SnO_2$ films.

This study was performed to investigate the deposition mechanism of SiO$_2$ by ArF excimer laser(l93nm) CVD with Si$_2$H$\_$6/ and N$_2$O gas mixture and evaluate laser CVD quantitatively by modeling. With ArF excimer laser CVD, thin films can be deposited at low temperature(below 300$^{\circ}C$), with less damage and good uniformity owing to generation of conformal reaction species by singular wavelength of the laser beam. In this study, new model of SiO$_2$ deposition process by laser CVD was introduced and deposition rate was simulated by computer with the basis on this modeling. And simulation results were compared with experimental results measured at various conditions such as reaction gas ratio, chamber pressure, substrate temperature and laser beam intensity.

SOG박막 밑에 층간 절연박으로 사용하는 PECVD산화막을 Si rich산화막으로 만들어 줌으로써 실리콘 dangling bond가 수소원자나 수분과 결합하여 SOG박막으로 부터 침투되는 수소원자나 수분의 확산을 억제하므로서 소작 열화되는 것을 방지한다. 이러한 Si rich산화막의 기본 특성을 알아보기 위하여 LF/HF power비와 $SiH_4/N_2O$ gas유량비를 변화시켜서 박막 특성을 조사하였다. 저주파 power만 변화시킨 경우, 증착속도가 감소하고 굴절율과 압축응력에 증가하며 FTIR에서 3300$\textrm{cm}^{-1}$~3800$\textrm{cm}^{-1}$영역의 수분에 의한 peak이 감소하는 것으로 보아 박막이 치밀해짐을 알 수 있고, $SiH_{4}$기체유량을 증가시킨 경우엔 증착속도, 굴절율, 식각속도는 증가하나 압축응력은 감소한다. FTIR에서 Si-O-Si peak의 세기가 감소하고 낮은 파수영역으로 이동하며, AES분석 결과에서 일반적인 oxide(Si:0=1:1.98)에서 보다 Si:O비가 1:1.23으로 낮아 PECVD산화 막내의 Si danling bond가 증가했음을 알 수 있었다.

The (S $r_{0.85}$C $a_{0.15}$)Ti $O_3$(SCT) thin films were deposited on Pt-coated electrode(Pt/TiN/ $SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method according to the deposition condition. The optimum conditions of RF power and Ar/ $O_2$ ratio were 140[W] and 80/20, respectively. Deposition rate of SCT thin films was about 18.75[$\AA$/min] at the optimum condition. The composition of SCT thin films deposited on Si substrate is close to stoichiometry (1.102 in A/B ratio). The capacitance characteristics had a stable value within $\pm$4[%]. The drastic decrease of dielectric constant and increase of dielectric loss in SCT thin films were observed above 200[kHz]. SCT thin films used in this study showed the phenomena of dielectric relaxation with the increase of frequency.ncy.

The (SrCa)$TiO_3$(SCT) thin films were deposited on Pt-coated electrode(Pt/TiN/$SiO_2$/Si) using RF sputtering method according to the deposition condition. The crystallinity of SCT thin films were increased with increase of deposition temperature in the temperature range of $100{\sim}500[^{\circ}C]$. The optimum conditions of RF power and Ar/$O_2$ ratio were 140[W] and 80/20, respectively. Deposition rate of SCT thin films was about $18.75[{\AA}/min]$ at the optimum condition. The composition of SCT thin films deposited on Si substrate is close to stoichiometry (1.081 in A/B ratio). The maximum dielectric constant of SCT thin film was obtained by annealing at $600[^{\circ}C]$.

Photoluminescent and cathodoluminescent charcteristics of inorganic luminescent materials were investigated ot develop possible phosphors for thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) device applications. Mg, Zn, and Photoluminescent and cathodoluminescent charcteristics of inorganic luminescent materials were investigated ot develop possible phosphors for thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) device applications. Mg, Zn, and $Si_3N_4$ powders were used to synthesize $(Mg_xZn_{1-x})SiN_2$ host materials. $Tb_4O_7$ and $Eu_2O_3$ powdrs were added as luminescent centers. Very sharp emission spectra of $Tb^{3+}$ ions were observed from $Mg._5Zn._5SiN_2:Tb$ sampels sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for an hour and the maximum intensity of emission spectra occured at wavelength of 550nm (green light). Synthetic conditions of $(Mg_xZn_{1-x})SiN_2:Eu$ phosphors were optimized for the hghest luminescence. The Eu concentrations were varied from 0.2% to 1.6%. Before firing, the powders were mixed using ballmills, methanol, acetone, or D.I. water. The Mg/Zn ratio also were varied from x=0.3 to x=0.7. The maximum PL intensity was obtained from a sample with 1.2% Eu concentration and the powder was mixed with methanol and dried before firing. The maximum intensity of the emission spectra occurred t the wavelength of 470nm(blue light). TFEL devices fabricated by using sputter deposition of $(Mg._3Zn._7)SiN_2:Eu$ phosphor layer showed yellowish white emission at the phosphor field of 2MV/cm.

The structural and electrical properties of the films are investigated as a function of nitrogen/argon ratio at room temperature and at various deposition temperatures. The phase changes as $Ta_2N$ or TaN in the films were observed as nitrogen/argon ratio increases from 3% to 25%. The phase changes were associated with a change in the resistivity and TCR (temperature coefficient of resistance) of the films. TCR values of the films deposited at room temperature and different nitrogen contents were negative, and strongly decreased with the increase in nitrogen/argon ratio. The Ta2N films deposited at nitrogen/argon ratio of 3% show improved TCR values and thermal stability with increasing deposition temperature. The $Ta_2N$ films grown at nitrogen/argon ratio of 3% and the temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ showed a TCR value of -47 $ppm/^{\circ}C$, which is close to near-zero TCR in the range of deposition temperature.

$SiN_x$ 박막을 $200^{\circ}C$의 저온에서 $SiH_4$ 가스의 흐름 비율을 바꾸어 가며 PECVD 기법으로 성장하였다. 시료의 광 특성을 규명하기 위하여 상온 광 발광 스펙트럼을 측정하였다. 성장 시 $SiH_4$ 가스의 흐름 비율이 증가함에 따라 시료의 발광 최대치 파장이 장파장으로 이동하였으나, $SiH_4$ 가스의 흐름 비율과 무관하게 모든 시료에서 1.8, 1.9, 2.2, 2.4, 그리고 3.1 eV 에너지의 발광 현상을 관찰하였다. $N_2$, $H_2$, 그리고 $O_2$ 가스 분위기에서 후열처리를 거친 후, 발광 스펙트럼의 변화를 조사하였다. 열처리 후의 발광 세기는 증가하였고, 특히, $H_2$ 및 $O_2$가스 열처리로 인하여 발광 최대치 파장이 단파장으로 이동하였으나, 특정한 파장에서 발광효과는 여전히 존재하였다. 발광 메카니즘에 대하여, $SiN_x$ 박막의 에너지 갭 내에 Si와 N 원자의 비결합 결함에 의한 에너지 준위 모델을 설정하였고, 이 에너지 준위의 천이에 의한 발광으로 이해하였다. 그리고 저온에서 성장한 $SiN_x$ 박막의 발광 효과는 앞으로 구부러짐이 가능한 Si 계 광소자 개발 가능성을 보여주고 있다.
