20nm이하의 얇은 박막에서도 높은 보자력이 요구되는 Ti/CoCrPt 수직자기기록박막의 보자력 향상을 위해 Al, Cu, Ni, Cr, Ag, Mg, Fe, Co, Pd, Au, Pt, Mo, Hf등의 여러 하지층과 제조조건이 보자력에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다 이들 중 Ag과 Mg하지층은 Ti/CoCrPt박막의 보자력을 향상시켰으며 특히 2nm Ag 하지층을 사용할 경우 10nm CoCrPt 박막에서 2200 Oe의 높은 보자력을 보일뿐 아니라 $\alpha$값을 낮추는 효과가 있었다. 그러나 Ag를 하지층으로 사용하면 기대와는 달리 Ti(002)면의 우선배향 성장이 전혀 일어나지 않아 보자력 증대에 다른 기구가 작용하는 것으로 판단되었다. 그리고 표면의 거칠기가 큰 기판에서는 보자력뿐만 아니라 역자구생성자계도 감소하였다.

단결정 MgO (001) 기판에 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터로 하지층과 상지층으로 구성된 이중층을 증착, 열처리 온도와 시간을 고정시키고 이중층의 두께를 변화시켜 응집현상을 제어하여 자기구조화, 나노 구조화된 박막을 제작하였다. 진행한 실험에선 기존에 연구되었던 단층에서의 응집현상이 아닌 하지층과 상지층으로 구성된 이중층의 응집현상으로 나노 점을 형성하였다. 하지층은 Ti, Cr, Co 그리고 상지층은 Ag를 증착하였다. Atomic force microscopy를 통하여 하지층의 물질에 따라 나노 점의 형성 여부가 관찰되었고 형성된 나노 점의 형상이 다르게 나타난 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로 이중층의 응집현상을 이용하여 나노 점을 제작할 때 가장 적합한 하지층의 물질은 Ti로 확인하였다. 또한 Ti/Ag 시료는 X-ray Diffraction 분광법을 통하여 Ag는 기판으로 사용된 MgO의 (001) 방향을 따라서 에피택셜하게 성장한 것을 확인하였다.

The composition and thickness dependence and the ferromagnetic under- and overlayer effect on the magnetoresistance ratio and saturation field of the Co-Ag nano-granular films were investigated. The maximum magnetoresistance (23% at R.T.) in the as-deposited state was obtained in the $3000{\AA}$ $Co_{30} Ag_{70}$ bare alloy film. As the thickness of the alloy films decreased below $500{\AA}$, the MR ratio decreased because of the resistivity increase and the non-uniform film formation. We showed that the ferromagnetic over- and underlayer could reduce the saturation field of the nano-granular films via exchange coupling effect. The magnetoresistance and the saturation field of the $100{\AA}$ alloy film were 3.65 % and 2.85 kOe respectively and those of the under- and overlayered alloy films with $200{\AA}$ Fe were 3.3 % and 1.23 kOe respectively.

We have studied diffusion behavior of NiFe/Ag bilayer deposited by on silicon Ion Beam Sputtering methods. The diffusion behavior of NiFe and Ag in NiFe/Ag thin film is analyzed by Medium Energy Ion Scattering Spectroscopy. For samples without Ta underlayer, silicides such as Ni-Si or Fe-Si were formed at Si substrate and NiFe interface. In contrast, Ag predominantly diffused into the NiFe layer probably through their grain boundaries for Ta underlayered samples.

A transparent quantum dot (QD)-based light-emitting diode (LED) with silver nanowire (Ag NW) and indium-tin oxide (ITO) hybrid electrode is demonstrated. The device consists of an Ag NW-ITO hybrid cathode (-), zinc oxide, poly (9-vinylcarbazole) (PVK), CdSe/CdZnS QD, tungsten trioxide, and ITO anode (+). The device shows pure green-color emission peaking at 548 nm, with a narrow spectral half width of 43 nm. Devices with hybrid cathodes show better performances, including higher luminance with higher current density, and lower threshold voltage of 5 V, compared with the reference device with a pure Ag NW cathode. It is worth noting that our transparent device with hybrid cathode exhibits a lifetime 9,300 seconds longer than that of a device with Ag NW cathode. This is the reason that the ITO overlayer can protect against oxidization of Ag NW, and the Ag NW underlayer can reduce the junction resistance and spread the current efficiently. The hybrid cathode for our transparent QD LED can applicable to other quantum structure-based optical devices.

For low-emissivity application on window glass, coalescence of thin film silver islands is crucial for high transmittance in the visible and high reflectance in the infrared. It is well known that the underlayer affects the growth mode. In this work, the effect of the underlayer on the growth of silver films deposited by filtered cathodic vacuum arc is discussed. While a nominal 0.1 nm niobium underlayer has promoted the coalescence of silver islands, a 0.2 nm layer did not show these features. From a thermodynamic approach, Nb seeding less one monolayer is considered to reduce the surface energy between the silver atoms and $Nb/TiO_2$ surface, resulting the change of its growth from 3D islands to 2D-layer modes. If the seed layer exceeds one monolayer, however, a rougher surface is formed because the surface energy of Nb itself is superior to that of $Nb-TiO_2$. The onset of silver layer on the roughened Nb surface is required more silver.

열진공증착 방법으로 제작한 Ag/Co 다층박막의 구조, 자성 및 자기저항에 관하여 연구하였다. Ag층의 두께가 $60{\AA}$ 정도로 두꺼울 때는 Co 두께가 $5{\AA}$에서도 비교적 균일한 다층막의 형태를 이루어서 대부분의 Co층이 강자성의 성질을 가지나 Ag층의 두께가 $30{\AA}$으로 얇고 Co가 $15{\AA}$ 이하일 경우에는 Co층이 섬형화된 불연속 다층박막이 형성되어 섬형화된 많은 부분의 Co가 초상자성 성질을 가졌다. 또한 열처리에 의하여 Co의 섬형화가 진전되어 MR비가 증가 되었다. $3000{\AA}$ 두께의 $Ag30{\AA}/Co10{\AA}$ 불연속 다층박막에서 최대 6.1%의 자기저항비를 얻었으며 SiO를 하지층으로 입힐 경우 $1000{\AA}$ 다층박막에서 층상 구조의 개선으로 반강자성 결합 및 자기저항비가 증가되었다.

IGZO/Ag bi-layered films were deposited on glass substrate at room temperature with radio frequency and direct current magnetron sputtering, respectively to consider the effect of Ag buffer layer on the electrical, optical and structural properties. For all deposition, while the thickness of Ag buffer layer was varied as 10, 15, and 20 nm, The thickness of IGZO films were kept at 100 nm, In a comparison of figure of merit, IGZO films with 15 nm thick Ag buffer layer show the higher figure of merit ($1.1{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}^{-1}$) than that of the IGZO single layer films ($3.7{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}^{-1}$). From the observed results, it is supposed that the IGZO 100 nm/Ag 15 nm bi-layered films may be an alternative candidate for transparent electrode in a transparent thin film transistor device.

In this study, the effects of alloying elements and thermal aging on the contact resistance of electroplated gold alloy layers were investigated by surface analysis using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The contact resistance of Au-Ag alloy was lower than that of Au-Ni or Au-Co alloy after thermal aging. The XPS results show that nickel and oxygen present as nickel oxides such as NiO and $Ni_2O_3$ on the surface of gold layers after thermal aging. The increase in the contact resistance after thermal aging is attributable to the nickel oxide layer formed on the surface of the gold layers. The content of nickel diffused from the underlayer during the thermal aging was high in the order of Au-Co, Au-Ni and Au-Ag alloy because the area of grain boundary was large in the order of Au-Ag, Au-Ni and Au-Co alloy.
