  • YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) films grown on CeO$_2$-buffered r-cut sapphire substrates (CbS's) were prepared and their structural and electrical properties were measured. Post-annealed CeO$_2$ films were used as buffer layers for the experiments. It turned out that the YBCO films grown on post-annealed CbS's had the rms roughness of less than 20 ${\AA}$ and peak-to-peak roughness of about 30 ${\AA}$ when the YBCO film thickness was 3000 ${\AA}$. Meanwhile, YBCO films on in-situ grown CeO$_2$ buffer layers on r-cut sapphire substrates appeared to have the peak-to-peak roughness of more than 450 ${\AA}$. X-ray diffraction data revealed that the YBCO flms were epitaxially grown along the c-axis with the typical FWHM of(005) ${\theta}$ -2 ${\theta}$ peak about 0. 16 $^{\circ}$ and ${\Delta}$ ${\omega}$ of the (005) peak about 0.5 $^{\circ}$. T$_c$ > 87 K, ${\Delta}$T < 1 K and R(look)/R(100K) ${\ge}$3 were observed from the YBCO films. Applicability of the YBCO films for high-frequency applications was described.

  • We have deposited the bilayer consisted of the underlayer and the overlayer by using DC magnetron sputter on Single crystal MgO (001) substrate. This bilayer was fabricated at fixed annealing temperature and time. We have controlled agglomeration effect by changing of the bilayer thickness. Finally, we have made the self-organization and nano-structured film. In this processing, we have made nano-dot which consists of the underlayer and the overlayer, unlike the existing method called the agglomeration effect in the single layer. The underlayer has deposited using Ti, Cr and Co. And the overlayer has deposited with Ag. Through the analysis of Atomic force microscopy (AFM), the microstructure of underlayer is observed by AFM to confirm the formation of nano-dot. As the nano-dot through above processing, we have found that the nano-dot has the different shape. As a result, when we manufactured nano-dot through the agglomeration effect of bi-layer, the best matching material is Ti for underlayer. And also, we have found that MgO/Ti/Ag samples have been grown expitaxially toward the direction of MgO (001) by X-ray Diffraction analysis.

  • $CuInS_2$ thin films were prepared using a sol-gel spin-coating method. That makes large scale substrate coating, simple equipment, easy composition control available. The structural and optical properties of $CuInS_2$ thin films that include less toxic materials (S) instead of Se, tetragonal chalcopyrite structure. Copper acetate monohydrate ($Cu(CH_3COO)_2{\cdot}H2O$) and indium acetate ($In(CH_3COO)_3$) were dissolved into 2-propanol and l-propanol, respectively. The two solutions were mixed into a starting solution. The solution was dropped onto glass substrate, rotated at 3000 rpm, and dried at $300^{\circ}C$ for Cu-In as-grown films. The as-grown films were sulfurized inside a graphite container box and chalcopyrite phase of $CuInS_2$ was observed. To determine the optical properties measured optical transmittance of visible light region (380~770 nm) were less than 30 % in the overall. The XRD pattern shows that main peak was observed at Cu/In ratio 1.0 and its orientation was (112). As annealing temperature increases, the intensity of (112) plane increases. The unit cell constant are a = 5.5032 and c = 11.1064 $\AA$, and this was well matched with JCPDS card. The optical transmittance of visible region was below than 30 %.

  • The annealing-temperature dependence of magnetic properties in compressed powder cores being composed of ball-milled F $e_{73.5}$C $u_1$N $b_3$S $i_{15.5}$ $B_{7}$ alloy powders (size 250∼850${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$) and 5 wt% of ceramic insulators has been investigated. When annealed at 5$50^{\circ}C$ for 1 h and so transformed to $\alpha$-Fe phase nanocrystalline structure with the grain size of 11 nm (electrical resistivity : 110 $\mu$$.$cm), the highest effective permeability of 125 and quality factor of 53 were obtained, and the permeability persisted up to about 500 KHz. Further the core loss measured at the frequency of 50 KHz and the induction amplitude of 0.1 T was very low (230 mW/㎤). However the dc bias characteristics was not satisfactory as compared to that of conventional powder core materials(MPP, Sendust etc.). The inferior dc bias property of F $e_{73.5}$C $u_1$N $b_3$S $i_{15.5}$ $B_{7}$ alloy powder cores was attributed to the fact that the size of powder was too large for obtaining the same permeability with that of conventional materials.

  • Rapidly solidified $SmFe_{7+x}M_{x}(M=Mo,\;V,\;Ti)$ compound were found to crystallize in the ${Sm(Fe,\;M)}_{7}$ based stable magnetic phase by introducing a second transition element into the Sm-Fe binary system. The ${Sm(Fe,\;M)}_{7}$ phase exhibits the highest Curie temperatuer ($T_{c}=355^{\circ}C$) ever Known in the Sm-Fe magnetic systems with a quite high intrinsic coercivity($_{i}H_{c}=3~6\;kOe $). The ${Sm(Fe,\;M)}_{7}$ phase remains stable even after annealing if once form during the rapid solidification. The primary reason for the high coercive force is due to the fine grain size($2000~8000\;{\AA}$)of the magnetic ${Sm(Fe,\;M)}_{7}$ matrix phase, and the enhanced Curie temperature is attributed to the extended solid-solubility of the additive transition elements in Fe matrix, which leads to volume expansion of the ${Sm(Fe,\;M)}_{7}$ cell causing an enhanced coupling constant of Fe atoms.

  • We have produced $Co_{1-x}Pt_{x}(X\;=\;0.53\;and\;0.75)$ alloy films by DC magnetron sputtering at various substrate temperatures and sputtering pressures. Sputter-deposited Co-Pt alloy films showed a strong (111) texture, and the degree of (111) texture of the as-deposited film was found to depend on the substrate temperature and Ar pressure. However, we observed that the degree of (111) texture did not affect the magnetic properties. In addition, we have investigated the effect of heat-treatment on magnetic properties of these films. While the magnetic properties of the $Co_{0.25}Pt_{0.75}$ alloy films showed no noticeable changes, the coercivities and the squarenesses of the $Co_{0.47}Pt_{0.53}$ alloy films were drastically increased by annealing. Structural analysis using transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and x-ray diffractornetry(XRD) revealed that $CoPt(L1_{0})$ and $CoPt_3(L1_{2})$ ordered phases, respectively, were formed, each with a strong (111) texture. By comparing the magnetic properties between $CoPt(L1_{0})$ and $CoPt_3(L1_{2})$ ordered phases in relation to the atomic arrangements in a unit cell, we conclude that the magnetic anisotropy in the Co-Pt alloy system depends mainly on the atomic arrangements of Co and Pt.

  • A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were 630 $\^{C}$ and 420 $\^{C}$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.01$\times$10$\^$16/ cm$\^$-3/ and 219 ㎠/V$.$s at 293 K, respectively. From the optical absorption measurement, the temperature dependence of energy band gap on CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was found to be Eg(T) = 2.7116 eV - (7.74 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/ eV) T$\^$2//(T+434). After the as-grown CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was annealed in Cd-, S-, and In-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) at 10 K. The native defects of V$\_$cd/, V$\_$s/, Cd$\_$int/ and S$\_$int/ obtained by PL measurements were classified as donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the S-atmosphere converted CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films to an optical p-type. Also, we confirmed that In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/GaAs did not from the native defects because In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

  • We have investigated the material and electrical properties of $Bi_{4-x}La_xTi_3O_{12}$ (BLT) ferroelectric thin film for ferroelectric nonvolatile memory applications of capacitor type and single transistor type. The 120nm thick BLT films were deposited on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ and $SiO_2/Nitride/SiO_2$ (ONO) substrates by the sol-gel spin coating method and were annealed at $700^{\circ}C$. It was observed that the crystallographic orientation of BLT thin films were strongly affected by the excess Bi content and the intermediate rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatment conditions regardeless of two type substrates. However, the surface microstructure and roughness of BLT films showed dependence of two different type substrates with orientation of (111) plane and amorphous phase. As increase excess Bi content, the crystallographic orientation of the BLT films varied drastically in BLT films and exhibited well-crystallized phase. Also, the conversion of crystallographic orientation at intermediate RTA temperature of above $450^{\circ}C$ started to be observed in BLT thin films with above excess 6.5% Bi content and the rms roughness of films is decreased. We found that the electrical properties of BLT films such as the P-V hysteresis loop and leakage current were effectively modulated by the crystallographic orientations change of thin films.

  • In order to fabricate magnetoresistive sensor, Fe-Ni and Co-Ni alleys were evaporated on the slide glass and the silicon wafers. Saturation magnetic induction($B_{s}$), coercive field strength($H_{c}$) and magnetoresistance were measured for fabricated samples. The evaporated Fe-Ni thin films show that the saturation magnetic induction was 0.65 T, and coercive field strength was 0.379 A/cm, and this value was changed to 0.370 A/cm(//), 0.390 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively after magnetic annealing. For the measurement of coercive field strength, magnetizing frequency of 1 kHz was used. For the fabricated sensor element, the change of magnetoresistance (${\Delta}R/R$) was excessively unstable due to oxidation in the process of fabrication. The evaporated Co-Ni alloy thin films show that saturation magnetic induction was 0.66 T, and coercive field strengthes were 5.895 A/cm(//), 5.898 A/cm(${\bot}$), respectively, after magnetic annelaing. The change of magnetoresistance(${\Delta}R/R$) was $3.6{\sim}3.7%$ of which value was excessively stable to room temperature. Fe-Ni thin film could have many problems due to large affinity in the process of fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, but Co-Ni thin film could be a suitable material for fabrication of magnetoresistance sensor, because of its small affinity and definite magnetoresistance effects.

  • A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $AgGaS_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $AgGaS_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $590^{\circ}C\;and\;440^{\circ}C$, respectively The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $AgGaS_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=2.7284 eV-(8.695{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/T(T+332K)$. After the as-grown $AgGaS_2$, single crystal thin films was annealed in Ag-, S-, and Ga-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of $AgGaS_2$ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) at 10K. The native defects of $V_{Ag},\;V_s,\;Ag_{int},\;and\;S_{int}$, obtained by PL measurements were classified as a donors or acceptors type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the Ag-atmosphere converted $AgGaS_2$ single crystal thin films to an optical n-type. Also, we confirmed that Ga in $AgGaS_2$ crystal thin films did not form the native defects because Ga in $AgGaS_2$ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.
