Dielectric properties of glass-ceramics with fresnoite(Ba2TiSi208) crystals have been investigated in xK20-(33.3-x)BaO-16.7TiO2-50SiO2 ($0{\leq}x{\leq}20mol%$) glasses. The glassy nature was analyzed by differential thermal analyses and glass-ceramics was variable and control table by the processing parameters like time and temperature. Dielectric constant was measured over a temperature from 125K to 425k at frequencies form 100Hz to 1MHz, and laid in the range 16-10. Piezoelectric constant d33 was measured using a YE2703A d33meter and changed from 5.9 to 4.8pCN-1 with x contents. The spontaneous polarization Ps estimated from the hysteresis at ${\pm}1.2kV$ was ${\sim}0.3\;{\mu}C/cm2$ at room temperature.

In this paper, we studied structural and magnetic properties of Ba-ferrite thin film deposited on Si(100) substrate with TiO$_2$ underlayer. Ba-ferrite thin films with TiO$_2$ underlayer were deposited by reactive RF/DC magnetron sputtering system at room temperature. TiO$_2$ underlayer was reactive sputtered with $O_2$. After deposition, the thin films were annealed at vatious temperatures to get the crystallized sample. Underlayer was used to prevent interdiffusion from Ba-ferrite thin film to substrate. The growth of Ba-ferrite thin films was influenced by TiO$_2$ underlayer. Easy magnetization direction is in-plane. From these results the Ba-ferrite film with TiO$_2$ underlayer can be used as longitudinal recording media.

The texture of Al/Ti thin films deposited on low-dielectric polymer substrates has been investigated. Fifty-nm-thick Ti films and 500-nm-thick Al-1%Si-0.5%Cu (wt%) films were deposited sequentially onto low-k polymers and SiO$_2$ by using a DC magnetron sputtering system. The texture of Al thin film was determined using X-ray diffraction (XRD) theta-2theta ($\theta$-2$\theta$) and rocking curve and the microstructure of Al/Ti films on low-k polymer and SiO$_2$ substrates was characterized by Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). hall thin films deposited on SiO$_2$ had stronger texture than those deposited on low-k polymer. The texture of Al thin films strongly depended on that of Ti films. Cross-sectional TEM resealed that Brains of Ti films on SiO$_2$ substrates had grown perpendicular to the substrate, while the grains of Ti films on SiLK substrates were farmed randomly. The lower degree of 111 texture of Al thin films on low-k polymer was due to Ti underlayer.

$(Pb_{0.98}La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35})O_3$ (PLZT) thin films with $TiO_2$ buffer layers were deposited on Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates by an R.F. magnetron sputtering method in order to improve the ferroelectric characteristics of the films. And the ferroelectric properties and crystallinities of the PLZT thin films were investigated in terms of the effects of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ buffer layers between a platinum bottom electrode and PLZT thin film. The ferroelectric properties of the PLZT thin films improved as increasing of the post annealing temperatures of $TiO_2$ layers, thereby reaching their maximum at $600^{\circ}C$.

Multi-level thin films are very important in ULSI applications because of their high electromigration resistance. This study presents the effects of titanium, titanium nitride and titanium tungsten underlayers of the stability of multi-aluminum thin films during isothermal annealing. High purity Al(99.999%) films have been electron-beam evaporated on Ti, TiN, TiW films formed on SiO2/Si (P-type(100))-wafer substrates by RF-sputtering in Ar gas ambient. The hillock growth was increased with annealing temperatures. Growth of hillocks was observed during isothermal annealing of the thin films by scanning electron microscopy. The hillock growth was believed to appear due to the recrystallization process driven by stress relaxation during isothermal annealing. Thermomigration damage was also presented in thin films by grain boundary grooving processes. It is shown that underlayers of Al/TiN/SiO2, Al/TiW/SiO2 thin films are preferrable to Al/SiO2 thin film metallization.

Antireflection coatings on optical lenses commertially available in domestic market are optically analyzed. Transmission spectra and reflection spectra are collected using spectrophotometers. The apparent absorption spectra around the absorption band edge are dominated by the substrate absorption. The reflection spectra and the apparent absorption spectra at visible region between 400nm and 700nm show very strong correlation to each other except a couple samples. The discrepency observed in the latters are due to an increased absorption in visible region by the substrate, which is negative effect of these samples. An antireflection coating consisted of $SiO_2/TiO_2/SiO_2/ZrO_2/Cr$ is made on c-Si substrate for spectroscopic ellispometry analysis. A film-by-film coating is accomplished and between each film deposition, ex-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements are made. The analysis of the spectroscopic ellipsometry data reveals that the average film densities of $ZrO_2$ and $TiO_2$ reach only 80% of their respective packing densities and thick films are inhomogeneous along film growth direction. Discussions are made toward in-situ, real-time monitoring of the film growth so that a real-time feedback is possible to achieve a post-correction to minor deviations occured in the previous step. step.

S $r_{0.9}$/B $i_{2.1}$/T $a_{2}$/ $O_{9}$ solutions was synthesized by MOD (metalorganic decomposition) method. SBT thin films with 2000$\AA$ thickness were prepared on Ir $O_2$/ $SiO_2$/Si and Pt/Ti/ $SiO_2$/Si substrates using the spin coating process and then investigated the dielectric and electrical properties of them. In the case of using Ir $O_2$bottom electrode the hysteresis loop was saturated at lower temperature than Pt/Ti electrode but the breakdown phenomenon was occurred at low voltage because of the rough surface morphology and porous microstructure of SBT thin films. As the results of the fatigue and imprint characteristics related to the lifetime and reliability of devices after 10$^{10}$ cycles the fatigue rates were about 10% at the Ir $O_2$and Pt/Ti bottom electrodes. Both SBT thin films with Ir $O_2$ and with Pt/Ti bottom electrodes show a slight tendency to imprint after 10$^{9}$ cycles but do not lead to a failure.e.e.

Electrochemical properties of Cu foil current collector with a $Li_{0.5}La_{0.5}TiO_3$ Cu a Si thin film deposited by r.f sputtering as an anode for Li free battery were evaluated. The Cu foil current collectors were lied in and out of plasma during sputtering process. The X-ray diffraction results indicated that the as-deposited Si and $Li_{0.5}La_{0.5}TiO_3$ thin films in and out of plasma did not show any crystalline difference. The $Li_{0.5}La_{0.5}TiO_3$ film in plasma and Si film out of plasma showed better cyclability since crystalline $Li_{0.5}La_{0.5}TiO_3$ has much higher ionic conductivity and crystalline Si film is much sensitive far volume change during charge-discharge process. These results suggested that the deposition of amorphous Si on Cu foil current collector is much better for fabrication of Li free battery and it can be useful for the unique battery with a cycling number constraint of below 10.

The TiAlCrSiN film was deposited on the WC-20%TiC-10%Co carbide, and its oxidation behavior was examined at $700-1000^{\circ}C$. It displayed relatively good oxidation resistance owing to the formation of $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $Cr_2O_3$, and $SiO_2$ up to $900^{\circ}C$. However, at $1000^{\circ}C$, the fast oxidation rate and partial oxidation of WC in the substrate led to the formation of the thick, fragile oxide scale.
