To study the effects of $H_2$ gas on AIN insulation thin film, we prepared AIN thin film on Si and GaAs substrate by means of reactive sputtering method using $H_2$ gas as an additives, With treatment conditions of $H_2$ gas AIN thin film shows variable electrical properties such as its crystallization and hysterisis affected to electrical property, As a results, AIN thin film fabricated on Si substrate post-treated with $H_2$ gas for 20 minutes shows much better an insulation property than that of pre-treated, And AIN film treated with $H_2$ gas comparing to non-treated AIN film shows a flat band voltage decreasment. But In GaAs substrate $H_2$ gas does not effect on the flat band voltage.

본 논문에서는 열전도도가 우수한 AIN 기판에 $CO_2$ Laser 장비 를 이용하여 Thru-hole과 scribing line을 형성하기 위해 $CO_2$ laser의 파라미터(촛점 거리, 공기량, 레이저 빔 시간, 펄스 개수)를 실험하고, 자체 정렬 마스킹 기법을 이용한 5 um 두께의 Cu 도금으로 AIN 기판에 전송 선로와 나선형 평면 인덕터를 제작하였다. AIN 기판에서의 마이크로스트립 라인의 전송 손실은 10 GHz에서 0.1 dB/mm, 6 nH 나선형 평면 인덕터는 1 GHz에서 56의 품질 계수를 얻었고, 이를 통해 열전도도가 우수한 AIN 기판의 고전력 RF 응용이 가능할 것으로 기대한다.

Using DC faced target sputtering method we grow AIN the films on the $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate with varying thickness(17$\AA$-1000$\AA$). We measured x-ray diffraction(XRD) profiles by synchrotron radiation($\lambda$=1.12839 $\AA$) with four circle diffractometer. The full width half maximum(FWHM) of rocking curve for the AIN (0002) diffraction of the film grown at $500^{\circ}C$ was $0.029^{\circ}$. Also, we confirmed that the stress between AIN thin film and $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate was reduced as increasing AIN film thickness, and the critical thickness of 400~500 $\AA$, defined as a lattice constant in the film agrees with that in a bulk without stress, was obtained.

AIN thin films are deposited on Si (100) and $SiO_2$/Si substrates by using an RF magnetron sputtering method and by changing the conditions of deposition variables, such as RF power, $N_2$/Ar flow ratio, and substrate temperature ($T_sub$). For all the deposited AIN films, XRD Peak patterns are monitored to examine the effect of deposition condition on the crystal orientation. Highly (002)-oriented AIN films are obtained at following nominal deposition conditions; RF Power : 350W, $N_2$/Ar ratio = 10/20, T$_{sub}$ : $250^{\circ}C$, and working pressure = 5mTorr, respectively. AIN-based SAW devices are fabricated using a lift-off method by varying the thickness of AIN layer. Insertion losses and side-lobe rejection levels of fabricated SAW devices are extracted from their frequency response characteristics, which are also compared in terms of AIN thickness and substrate. Relationships between the film properties of AIN films and the frequency responses of SAW devices are discussed. It is concluded from the experimental results that the (002)-preferred orientation as well as the surface roughness of AIN film may play a crucial role of determining the device performances of AIN-SAW devices.s.

Reactive radio frequency (RF)magnetron sputter with incident angle has been used to deposit AlN thin film on a crystalline Si substrate. (002)Preferred orientation of AlN thin film has been obtained at low sputtering pressure. Also it has been shown that depostion rate of AIN thin film is affected by fraction Ar and $N_2$ partial pressure. But substrate temperature didn't affect depostion rate of AIN thin film . As sputtering pressure increased preferred orientation degraded. The internal stress changed from tensile stress to compressive stress as fraction of $N_2$ partial pressure increased. At low nitrogen partial pressure cermet$^{[1]}$ AIN thin film is obtained.

A hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method was performed to prepare the thick-fi lm GaN on AIN/Si substrates. We obtained substrate-free GaN. The foul t-width at half maximum of double crystal X-ray rocking curve from 350 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick substrate-free GaN was ~1000 arcsec. The photoluminescence spectrum (at 20 K) shows the narrow bound exiton (I$_2$) line and wealth donor-acceptor pair recombination however. there was not observed deep donor-accepter pair recombination indicate the substrate-free GaN crystal prepared in this study are of high purity and high crystalline quality.

The III-V nitride semiconductor InN thin films which have the direct bandgap in visible light wavelength region have been deposited on Si(100) substrates and AIN/Si(100) substrates by rf reactive sputtering. InN thin films have been investigated on the structural, and electrical properties according to the sputtering parameters such as total pressure, rf power, and substrate temperature. It is found that optimal conditions required for fabricating InN thin films with high crystal Quality, low carrier concentration, high Hall mobility are total pressure 5mTorr, rf power 60W, substrate temperature 6$0^{\circ}C$ . InN thin films deposited on the AIN(60min.)/Si(100) substrates arid AIN(120min.)/Si(100) substrates showed remarkably high crystal quality and electrical properties. It is known that AIN buffer layer is to decrease free energy at interface between InN film and Si substrate, and then promoting lateral growth of InN films.

AIN thin films were prepared on amorphous glass and $SiO_2(1{\mu}m)/Si(100)$ substrate by the facing targets sputtering (FTS) apparatus, which can provide high density plasma, a high deposition rate at a low working gas pressure. The AIN thin films were deposited at a different nitrogen gas flow rate ($1.0{\sim}0.3$) and other sputtering parameters were fixed such as sputtering power of 200w, working pressures of 1mTorr and AIN thin film thickness of 800 nm, respectively. The thickness and crystallographic characteristics of AIN thin films as a function of $N_2$ gas flow rate $[N_2/(N_2+Ar)]$ were measured by $\alpha$-step and an X-ray diffraction (XRD) instrument. And the c-axis preferred orientations were evaluated by rocking curve. In the results, we could prepared the AIN thin film with c-axis preferred orientation of about $5^{\circ}$ on substrate temperature R.T. at nitrogen gas flow rate 0.7.

AIN thin film has been deposited on the $AI_2$$O_3$substrate with reactive radio frequency( RF) magnetron sputtering method. In this work, elelctromechanical coupling coefficient of AIN thin film was increased with an increase of AIN thin film thickness, and the maximum value was 0.11%. Insertion loss of SAW device was decreased with an increase of AIN thin film thickness and the minimum value was 33［㏈］. SAW velocity of IDTs/AIN/$AI_2$$O_3$structure and IDTs/AIN/$AI_2$$O_3$/Si structure were about 5480［㎧］and 5040［㎧］respectively.
