Epitaxial rutile-$TiO_2$ and anatase-$TiO_2$ films were grown at $800^{\circ}C$ on $Al_2O_3$ (1102) and $LaAlO_3$ (001), respectively, using pulsed laser deposition. The formation of different phases on different substrates could be qualitatively explained by the atomic arrangements at the interfaces. We also successfully deposited epitaxial rutile-$TiO_2$ and anatase-$TiO_2$ films on conductive $RuO_2$ and $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}$ electrodes, respectively. Using a Kelvin probe, we measured the photovoltaic properties of these multilayer structures. A rutile-$TiO_2$ film grown on $RuO_2$ showed a very broad peak in the visible light region. An epitaxial anatase-$TiO_2$ film grown on $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}$ showed a strong peak with a threshold energy of 3.05 eV.

1Gb급 이상 기억소자의 캐패시터 재료로 주목받고 있는 (Ba,Sr)TiO3 [BST] 박막의 전극재료로는 Pt, Ru, Ir과 같은 금속전극과 RuO2, IrO2와 산화물 전도체가 유망한 것으로 알려져 있다. 그런데, DRAM의 집적도가 증가하게 되면, BST같은 고유전율 박막을 유전재료로 사용한다 하더라도, 3차원적인 구조가 불가피하게 때문에 기존의 sputtering 방법으로는 우수한 단차피복성을 얻기 힘들므로, MOCVD법이 필수적이다. 본 연구에서는 기존에 연구되었던 Pt에 비해 식각특성이 우수하고, 비교적 낮은 비저항을 갖는 Ru 박막증착에 대한 연구를 행하였다. 본 연구에서는 수직형의 반응기와 저항 가열 방식의 susceptor로 구성된 저압 유기금속 화학증착기를 사용하여 최대 6inch 직경을 갖는 기판 위에 Ru박막을 증착하였다. Precursor로는 기존에 연구된 적이 없는 bis-(ethyo-$\pi$-cyclopentadienyl)Ru (Ru(C5H4C2H5)2, [Ru(EtCp)2])를 사용하였으며, bubbler의 온도는 85$^{\circ}C$로 하였다. Si, SiO2/Si를 사용하였으며, 증착온도 25$0^{\circ}C$~40$0^{\circ}C$, 증착압력 3Torr의 조건에서 Ru 박막을 증착하였다. Presursor를 운반하는 수송기체로는 Ar을 사용하였으며, carbon과 같은 불순물의 제거를 위해 O2를 첨가하였다. 증착된 박막은 XRD, SEM, 4-point probe등을 통해 구조적, 전기적 특성을 평가하였으며, 열역학 계산을 위해서는 SOLGASMIX-PV프로그램을 사용하였다. Ru 박막의 증착에 있어서 산소의 첨가는 필수적이었으며, Ru 박막의 증착속도는 30$0^{\circ}C$~40$0^{\circ}C$의 온도 영역에서 200$\AA$/min으로 일정하였으며, 첨가된 산소의 양이 적을수록 더 치밀하고 평탄한 표면형상을 보였으며, 또한 더 낮은 전기 전도도를 보였다. 그리고 증착된 박막은 12~15$\mu$$\Omega$cm 정도의 낮은 비저항 값을 나타냈으며 이것은 기존의 sputtering 법에 의해 증착된 Ru 박막의 비저항 값들과 비교될만하다. 한편, 높은 온도, 높은 산소분압 조건에서 RuO2의 형성을 관찰하였으며, 이것은 열역학적인 계산을 통해서 잘 설명할 수 있었다.

Single phase ruthenium oxides with perovskite (ATi1-xRuxO3 (A=Ca, Sr)) and pyrochlore structure (Bi2Ru2O7, Pb2Ru2O6.5) have been prepared reproducibly by solid state reaction methods and their electrocatalytic activities for oxygen evolution have been examined by Tafel plots. Tafel slopes vary from a low value of 42 mV/decade up to 222 mV/decade at room temperature. The high exchange current densities and high Tafel slopes compared with those obtained from the RuO2 DSA electrode at the crystalline single phase metal oxide electrodes suggest that they are better electrocatalysts at low overpotentials. A favorable change in the Tafel slope for the oxygen evolution reaction occurs as the ruthenium content increases. Substitution of Ti for Ru in the perovskite solid solutions enhanced their chemical stability by losing marginal electrochemical activity.

A non-volatile resistive random access memory (RRAM) device with a Cr-doped $SrZrO_3/SrRuO_3$ bottom electrode heterostructure was fabricated on $SrTiO_3$ substrates using pulsed laser deposition. During the deposition process, the substrate temperature was $650^{\circ}C$ and the variable ambient oxygen pressure had a range of 50-250 mTorr. The sensitive dependences of the film structure on the processing oxygen pressure are important in controlling the bistable resistive switching of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ film. Therefore, oxygen pressure plays a crucial role in determining electrical properties and film growth characteristics such as various microstructural defects and crystallization. Inside, the microstructure and crystallinity of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ film by oxygen pressure were strong effects on the set, reset switching voltage of the Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$. The bistable switching is related to the defects and controls their number and structure. Therefore, the relation of defects generated and resistive switching behavior by oxygen pressure change will be discussed. We found that deposition conditions and ambient oxygen pressure highly affect the switching behavior. It is suggested that the interface between the top electrode and Cr-doped $SrZrO_3$ perovskite plays an important role in the resistive switching behavior. From I-V characteristics, a typical ON state resistance of $100-200\;{\Omega}$ and a typical OFF state resistance of $1-2\;k{\Omega}$, were observed. These transition metal-doped perovskite thin films can be used for memory device applications due to their high ON/OFF ratio, simple device structure, and non-volatility.

Ruthenium is one of the noble metals having good thermal and chemical stability, low resistivity, and relatively high work function(4.71eV). Because of these good physical, chemical, and electrical properties, Ru thin films have been extensively studied for various applications in semiconductor devices such as gate electrode for FET, capacitor electrodes for dynamic random access memories(DRAMs) with high-k dielectrics such as $Ta_2O_5$ and (Ba,Sr)$TiO_3$, and capacitor electrode for ferroelectric random access memories(FRAMs) with Pb(Zr,Ti)$O_3$. Additionally, Ru thin films have been studied for copper(Cu) seed layers for Cu electrochemical plating(ECP) in metallization process because of its good adhesion to and immiscibility with Cu. We investigated Ru thin films by thermal ALD with various deposition parameters such as deposition temperature, oxygen flow rate, and source pulse time. Ru thin films were grown by ALD(Lucida D100, NCD Co.) using RuDi as precursor and $O_2$ gas as a reactant at 200~$350^{\circ}C$.
