  • The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the $CuInSe_2$single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuInSe_2$compound crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $620^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $CuInSe_2$single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the $CuInSe_2$single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting $\Delta$So and the crystal field splitting $\Delta$Cr. From the photoluminescence measurement on $CuInSe_2$single crystal thin film, we observed free exciton ($E_x$) existing only high quality crystal and neutral bound exciton ($A^{\circ}$, X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full-width-at-half-maximum (FWHM) and binding energy of neutral donor bound exciton were 7 meV and 5.9 meV, respectivity. By haynes rule, an activation energy of impurity was 59 meV.

  • The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the $CdGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CdGa_2Se_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $630^{\circ}C$ and $420^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $CdGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.27{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$, $345\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the $CuInSe_2$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit splitting ${\Delta}So$ and the crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ were 106.5 meV and 418.9 meV at 10 K, respectively. From the photoluminescence measurement on $CdGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin film, we observed free excition ($E_x$) existing only high quality crystal and neutral bound exiciton ($D^{\circ}$, X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full-width-at -half-maximum(FWHM) and binding energy of neutral donor bound excition were 8 meV and 13.7 meV, respectivity. By Haynes rule, an activation energy of impurity was 137 meV.

  • $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ has been studied with X-ray diffraction, Mossbauer spectroscopy and vibrating sample magnet-ometer(VSM). The alloys were prepared by arc-melting under an argon atmosphere. The $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ contains some $\alpha-Fe$, from X-ray and Mossbauer measurements. The $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ has the $ThMn_{12}$-type tetragonal struc-ture with $a_{0}=8.607{\AA}\;and\;c_{0}=4.790{\AA}$. The Curie temperature ($T_c$) of the $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ is 590 K from $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy performed at various temperatures ranging from 13 to 800 K. Each spectrum below $T_c$ was fitted with six subspectra of Fe sites in the structure$(8i_{1},\;8i_{2},\;8j_{2},\;8j_{1},\;8f\;and\;{\alpha}-Fe)$. The area fractions of the subspectra at room temperature are 13.8%, 15.4%, 17%, 16.4%, 34.1% and 3.3%, respectively. Magenetic hyperfine fields for the Fe sites decrease in the order, $H_{hf}(8i)>H_{hf}(8j)>H_{hf}(8f)$. The abrupt changes in the magnetic hyperfine field, isomer shift and magnetic moment observed at about 180 K in $NdFe_{10.7}Ti_{1.3}$ are attributed to spin reorientation.

  • In this paper, it was demonstrated that the organic thin film transistors with the organic gate insulators were fabricated by vapor deposition polymerization (VDP) processing. The configuration of OTFTs was a staggered-inverted top-contact structure and gate dielectric layer was deposited with 0.45 ${\mu}m$ thickness. In order to form polyimide as a gate insulator, VDP process was also introduced instead of spin-coating process. Polyimide film was respectively co-deposited with different materials. One was from a 4,4'-oxydiphthalic anhydride (ODPA) and 4, 4'-oxydianiline (ODA) and the other was from 2,2-bis(3,4-dicarboxyphenyl) hexafluoropropane dianhydride (6FDA) and ODA. And it was also cured at 150 $^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour followed by 200 $^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. Electrical characteristics of the organic thin-film transistors were detailed comparisons between the ODPA-ODA and the 6FDA-ODA which were used as gate insulator.

  • 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. Coated specimens were dried at $150[^{\circ}C]$ for 5 minutes. Coating process was repeated 3 times and then sintered at $750[^{\circ}C]$ for 30 minutes. Each specimen was analyzed structure and electrical characteristics by Fractal Process. Thickness of BST ceramics thin films are about $2000{\AA}$. Dielectric constant and loss of thin films was little decreased at 1[KHz] - 1[MHz]. Dielectric constant and loss to frequency were 250 and 0.02 in BST3. The property of leakage current as the realation between the current and the voltage was that change of the leakage current was stable when the applied voltage was 0~3[V].

  • In this study, Sol-Gel derived $(Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$ thin films were fabricated and investigated. The stock solution was synthesized and spin-coated on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate at 4000(rpm] and then, annealed at $650{\sim}750[^{\circ}C]$. Crystallization condition, microstructural properties and interfacial structure were observed by XRD, AFM, SEM and TEM. It was found that the BST thin films were completely crystallized at 750[$^{\circ}C$] and showed nano-sized grains. The dielectric constant and loss of the BST thin films were 220, 0.01 at 1[kHz] respectively. Increasing the temperature, the dielectric constant and loss characteristics were not varied widely. At the applied voltage of 1.5[V], the leakage current density was under the $10^{-9}[A/cm^2]$.

  • This study examined the dependency of crystalline orientation and electric properties of sol-gel PZT film on hydrolysis, a $PbTiO_3$ seed layer and a concentration of sol-gel solution. The PZT thin films were prepared by using 2-Methoxyethanol-based sol-gel method and spin-coating on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates. The 1-${\mu}m$-thick PZT films were coated and then fired in a furnace by direct insert method. The highly (111) oriented PZT film of pure perovskite structure could be obtained. We could control the degree of orientation by various parameters such as hydrolysis, a $PbTiO_3$ seed layer and a concentration of sol-gel solution. The highest measured remanent polarization, dielectric constant and piezoelectric coefficient are $24.16\;{\mu}C/cm^2$, 2808, and 159 pC/N, respectively.

  • The stochiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the $CuInTe_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuInTe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched GaAs(100) by the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $610^{\circ}C\;and\;450^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the growth rate of the single crystal thin films was about $0.5{\mu}m/h$. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). From the photocurrent spectra, we have found that values of spin orbit coupling ${\Delta}So$ and crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ ware $0.283{\underline{3}}eV\;and\;0.120{\underline{0}}eV$, respectively.

  • Boron phosphide thin films were prepared on the glass substrate from boron and phosphorous alkoxide precursors by sol-gel processing. Boron phosphide sol with equivalent ratio $(CH_3O_3)B$ : $C_{18}H_{15}P$ = 13 : 2 was selected. Films spin-coated at 4000 rpm for 30 s were coated uniformly. Decomposition and crystallization behavior were examined using DSC/TGA and XRD. The films were sintered at 250, 300 and $400^{\circ}C$. It was determined that crystal structure has a rhombohedral phase. The microstructure of thin film was observed using SEM. Thin films approximately showed a visible ray transmittance of 85 %.

  • The Sr2Co0.5Nb(Ta)0.5O4 and Sr3CoNb(Ta)O7 compounds, both with Ruddlesden-Popper structures, have been synthesized by the ceramic method at $1150^{\circ}C$ under atmospheric pressure. The crystallographic structure of the compounds was assigned to the tetr agonal system with space group 14/mmm by X-ray diffraction(XRD) Rietveld refinement. The reduced lattice volume and lattice parameters increased as the Ta with 5d substitutes for the Nb with 4d in the compounds. The Co/Nb(Ta)O bond length has been determined by X-ray absorption spectroscopic(EXAFS/XANES) analysis and the XRD refinement. The CoO6,octahedra were tetragonally distorted by elongation of Co-O bond along the c-axis. The magnetic measurement shows the compounds Sr2Co0.5Nb(Ta)0.5O4 and Sr3CoNb(Ta)O7 have paramagnetic properties and the Co ions with intermediate spin sates between high and low spins in D4h symmetry. All the compounds showed semiconducting behavior whose electrical conductivity increased with temperature up to 1000 K. The electrical conductiviy increased and the activation energy for the conduction decreased as the number of perovskite layers increased in the compounds with chemical formula An+1BnO3n+1.
