ZnO 박막은 대칭 육방정계(hexagonal) wurtzite-type crystal로써 결정구조에서의 이방성, 비화학양론 결합구조와 다양한 전기적, 광학적 그리고 타성파적 성질 때문에 현재 여러 응용분양에서 각광을 받고 있는 재료 중의 하나이다. 이러한 특성을 갖는 ZnO 박막은 결정학적으로 기판에 수직인 c-축 우선방위현상(preferred orientation)을 나타내며 압전 특성을 이용하여 응용을 할 경우 이 c-축 우선방위현상에 따라 압전 특성에 큰 차이가 있으며 ZnO 박막의 형성 조건에 의해 c-축 우성배향성은 큰 차이가 있다. 특히 스퍼터법을 이용하여 ZnO 박막을 형성하는 경우에는 투입전력, 기판온도, 분위기 가스압력, 타겟간 거리등의 증착조건에 의해 결정학적 및 전기적 특성이 크게 영향을 받게 된다. 따라서 결정학적으로 양호하며 고품위의 특성을 갖는 ZnO 박막을 제작하기 위해서는 최적의 증착조건을 확립하여 ZnO 박막을 제작할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서 사용된 대향 타겟식 스퍼터장치는 두 개의 타겟이 서로 마주보게 배치되어 있고 양 타겟에 수직으로 분포하고 있는 자계가 ${\gamma}$-전자를 구속하게 되어 고밀도의 플라즈마를 형성할 수가 있다. 따라서 10-4Torr에서도 안정한 방전을 유지할 수가 있으며 기판의 위치가 플라즈마로부터 이격되어 (plasma-free)있는 위치에 있기 때문에 플라즈마내의 높은 에너지를 갖는 입자들의 기판충돌을 최대한 억제하여 고품위의ZnO 박막을 제작할 수가 있다. 이러한 특징을 갖는 대향타겟식스퍼터장치를 이용하여 본 연구에서는 비정질 slide glass를 기판으로 하여 ZnO 박막을 증착하였으며 XRD(X-ray Diffractometer)를 이용하여 증착된 ZnO 박막의 결정학적 특성을 측정하였다. ZnO 박막은 산소 가스압력과 기판온도, 인가 전류를 변화시켜가며 증착하였으며 이에 따른 박막의 결정성 변화를 알아보았다. 기판온도를 실온에서 점차 증가시켜나가면 $\Delta$$\theta$50은 급격히 감소하며 30$0^{\circ}C$에서는 결정성이 우수한 막을 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 산소 가스 압력이 0.5~1mTorr에서 $\Delta$$\theta$50은 양호한 값을 나타내었지만 그 이상에서는 c-축 배향성이 나빠짐을 확인하였다. 따라서 대향타겟식스퍼터 장치를 이용하여 ZnO 박막을 증착시 가스압력 0.5~1mTorr, 기판온도 20$0^{\circ}C$이상의 막 제작조건에서 결정성이 우수하게 나타나는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

Zinc Oxide(ZnO) thin films on Si(100) substrate were deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering. The charcteristics of ZnO thin films on argon/oxygen(Ar/O$_2$)gas ratios RF power and substrate temperature were investigated by XRD, SEM, and AFM analyses. C-axis preferred orientation resistivity and surface roughness highly depended on Ar/O$_2$gas ratios. The resistivity of ZnO thin films rapidly increased with increasing oxygen ratio and the resistivity value of 9$\times$10$^{7}$ $\Omega$cm was obtained at a working pressure of 10 mTorr with Ar/O$_2$=50/50. The surface roughness was also improved with increasing oxygen ratio and the ZnO films deposited with Ar/O$_2$=50/50 showed the excellent roughness value of 28.7$\AA$.

In order to predict substituent and Lewis acid effects on the regiospecificity of the Diels-Alder reaction, and to investigate the competition for the complexation of Lewis acid between diene and dienophile, frontier orbital theory has been applied to thermal and catalyzed Diels-Alder reaction by means of CNDO/2 MO method. It has been found that: (1) Lewis acid coordinated preferentially with diene rather than dienophile when carbonyl oxygen of acetoxy substituted diene had larger negative atomic charges than that of dienophile. (2) Most of the reaction were neutral electron demand type, and hence 4-C, 2-C and quantitative secondary orbital interacion methods were generally in good accord with experiments. (3) Sulfur activated the adjacent terminal carbon atom greatly to increase diene LUMO-dienophile HOMO interaction through vacant-d-orbital participation, and played an important role in controlling regioselectivity of neutral electron demand reaction type.

ZnO thin films were deposited on Corning 7059 glass substrates to study fundamental properties of films. According to the experimental results, (002) preferred ZnO thin films were grown by purging Ar/O2 mixed gas, but not without oxygen gas. The structure and the orientation of ZnO thin films were much affected by the substrate temperature and rf power. High quality ZnO films were obtained by increasing their values. Optimum deposition parameters were : 300W rf power, 300℃ substrate temperature, Ar/O2=70/30. To characterize SAW propagation properties, IDT was fabricated by etching Al films deposited on diamond/Si wafer with RIE. Measured λ(wavelength) was 24μm and experimental results were well matched with simulation. Center frequency was 250MHz, and the calculated phase velocity of ZnO/ diamond structure was about 6000m/s.

In these respects the purpose of this research is manufacturing Co-W-P alloy thin film on the corning glass 2948 by electroless plating method using $NaH_2PO_2H_2O$ (sodium hypophosphite) as a reductant, and analyzing deposition rate, alloy composition, microstructure, and magnetic characteristics at various pH's and temperatures. For Co-P alloy thin film, the reductive deposition reaction occurred only in basic condition, not in acidic condition. The deposition rate increased as the pH and temperature increased, and the optimum condition was found at the pH of 10 and the temperature of 8$0^{\circ}C$. Also magnetic characteristics was found to be most excellent at the pH of 9 and the temperature of 7$0^{\circ}C$, resulting in the coercive force of 870Oe and the squareness of 0.78. At this condition, the contents of P was 2.54% and the thickness of the film was 0.216$\mu\textrm{m}$. For crystal orientation, we could not observe fcc for $\beta$-Co. On the other hand, (1010), (0002), (1011) orientation of hcp for $\alpha$-Co was observed. We could confirm the formation of longitudinal magnetization from dominant (1010) and (1011) orientation of Co-P alloy. For Co-W-P alloy thin film, coercive force was 500Oe and squareness was 0.6. For crystal orientation, (0002) orientation of $\alpha$-Co was dominatly found. Then we could confirm the formation of perpendicular magnetization. The content of P was constant at 0.8$\pm$0.2% and the content of W increased as the concentration of Na$_2$WO$_4$increased. When the concentration of Na$_2$WO$_4$was 0.1mol/L, the composition of W was 20%. We observed the changes of magnetic characteristics and microstructure of thin film depositions of Co-W-P by the heat treatment. For heat treatment, the temperature was increased step by step to 10$0^{\circ}C$, 20$0^{\circ}C$, 30$0^{\circ}C$, and 40$0^{\circ}C$ and it took 1 hour at each step in the reductive condition of hydrogen gas. By the heat treatment, flatness of surface was improved, but there were no changes on the magnetic characteristics and the microstructures.

Usually sputtering and electroless plating methods were used for manufacturing metal-alloy thin film magnetic memory devices. Since electroless plating method has many merits in mass production and product variety com­pared to sputtering method, many researches about electroless plating have been performed in the United State of America and Japan. However, electroless plating method has not been studied frequently in Korea. In these respects the purpose of this research is manufacturing Co-Mn-P alloy thin film on the corning glass 2948 by electroless plating method using sodium hypophosphite as a reductant, and analyzing deposition rate, alloy composition, microstructure, and magnetic characteristics at various pH's and temperatures. For Co-P alloy thin film, the reductive deposition reaction 0$\alpha$urred only in basic condition, not in acidic condition. The deposition rate increased as the pH and temperature increased, and the optimum condition was found at the pH of 10 and the temperature of $80^{\circ}C$. Also magnetic charac­teristics was found to be most excellent at the pH of 9 and the temperature of $70^{\circ}C$, resulting in the coercive force of 8700e and the squareness of 0.78. At this condition, the contents of P was 2.54% and the thickness of the film was $0.216\mu\textrm{m}$. For crystal orientation, we could not observe fcc for $\beta$-Co. On the other hand,(1010), (0002), (1011) orientation of hcp for a-Co was observed. We could confirm the formation of longitudinal magnetization from dominant (1010) and (1011) orientation of Co-P alloy. For Co-Mn-P alloy deposition, coercive force was about 1000e more than that of Co P alloy, but squareness had no difference. For crystal orientation, (l01O) and (lOll) orientation of $\alpha$-Co was dominant as same as that of Co- P alloy. Likewise we could confirm the formation of longitudinal magnetization.

The ($Sr_{1-x}Ca_x)TiO_3$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode($Pt/TiN/SiO_2/Si$) using RF sputtering method with substitutional contents of Ca. The maximum grain of thin films is obtained by substitution of Ca at 15[mol%]. All SCT thin films had (111) preferred orientation. The dielectric constant was increased with increasing the substitutional contents of Ca, while it was decreased if the substitutional contents of Ca exceeded over 15[mol%]. The dielectric constant changes almost linearly in temperature ranges of -80~+90[$^{\circ}C$]. The temperature properties of the dielectric loss have a stable value within 0.02 independent of the substitutional contents of Ca. All SCT thin films used in this study show the phenomena of dielectric relaxation with the increase of frequency, and the relaxation frequency is observed above 200[kHz].

최근에 산화물 인공격자의 우수한 특성으로 인하여 활발한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 펄스레이저 증착방법을 이용하여 산소분압 100mTorr, $650^{\circ}C$에서 LSCO/MgO 기판위에 La-50mol% 첨가된 SrTiO$_3$ (SLTO)와 SrTiO$_3$ 를 적층시켜 산화물 인공격자를 만들어 결정구조에 대하여 연구하였다. SrTiO$_3$ (STO)는 상온에서 3.904$\AA$인 cubic perovskite 구조를 가지고 있다. 일반적으로 La$^{3+}$ (1.14$\AA$)은 Sr$^{2+}$(1.12$\AA$)과 이온반경이 거의 유사하기 때문에 ABO 페로브스카이트 구조의 A자리에 치환될 것으로 기대되며 또한 Sr$^{2+}$ 자리에 La$^{3+}$ 가 치환되므로써 발생하는 charge compensation은 Sr 자리에 Vacancy 생성으로 판단된다. 인공격자의 성장확인을 위하여 SLTO와 STO를 10층씩 증착하여 XRD분석을 통하여 평가하여 보았다. 확인된 결과를 바탕으로 산화물 인공격자의 적층 주기를 SLTO layer를 한층으로 고정시키고 STO를 한 층에서 다섯 층까지 다양하게 변화시켰다. 본 연구의 목적은 산화물 인공격자에서 결정결함을 제어하여 소자에 응용할 수 있는 전기적 물성을 평가하기 위함이다. X-ray diffraction 결과 SLTO/STO 인공격자는 (001) 방향으로 우선배향하였으며 적층주기에 따라 격자상수의 변화를 보였다. AES의 depth profile 분석을 통하여 La의 분포를 확인하였으며, HRTEM 분석을 통하여 미세구조분석을 실시하였다.

The characteristics of <112> orientation were studied for the $TiO_2$thin films, which were prepared on the glass by CVD (chemical vapor deposition) at various substrate temperatures. It was confirmed that $TiO_2$ films exhibited <112>-preferred orientation in a specific temperature range. Although $TiO_2$polycrystalline film grown deposited at relatively low temperature showed the growth of random directions, the <112>-preferred orientation was gradually developed with increasing deposition temperature. According to exhibit higher degree of <112>-preferred orientation, $TiO_2$thin film showed porous surface morphology, well-developed columnar structure, and deeper voids resulted from non-aggregation of columns were observed. In addition, transmittance was enhanced. Therefore, the growth of $TiO_2$with <112>-preferred orientation is suitable for glass coating because of predominance of photocatalytic efficiency and transmittance.

구리는 탄성이방성이 큰 재료로 Si 박막상에 성장시키면 (111) 방향으로 우선 배향된 박막을 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구는 이러한 (111) 우선 방위를 갖는 Cu 박막의 전기도금층의 재결정 후의 매우 평탄한 표면을 갖는 박막에서 에칭에 따른 박막의 단차와 표면형상을 통해 결정방위별 에칭 특성을 비교 분석한 결과이다. 10 vol% 질산용액에서 에칭한 결과는 구리의 용해에 따라 각 결정면에 대한 고유의 facetted surface morphology를 나타내며, 대표적인 결정 방위인 (111), (110), (100)에 대해 triangular flake, ridge and rectangular pyramidal shapes을 나타내는 것을 알 수 있었다. 에칭속도의 정량적 측정을 위해 120초간 2.2M 농도의 질산용액으로 에칭을 실시하였고, nanosize의 as-plated initial region, (111), (110), (100) oriented regions의 각각에서 383, 270, 276, 317 nm/min의 에칭속도를 갖는 것을 확인하였다. Facet surface의 관찰을 통해 에칭반응이 (111) front surface를 갖는 열역학적 평형상태에서 일어나며, 이러한 결정방위별 에칭속도 차이는 각 결정S면이 갖는 Kink or ledge의 밀도의 차이에 기인할 것으로 판단된다. 즉, 에칭이 평형상태에서 step flow mechanism에 의해 열역학적 평형상태를 유지하면서 진행이 된다. 본 연구는 향후 다양한 에칭관련 용액 효과, 구리 박막의 응력 및 불순물에 의한 효과를 볼 수 있는 기본 방법을 제공해 줄 것으로 기대한다.
