In this paper, we investigated dielectric properies for BST thin films that was deposited on MgO/Si substrates using RF magnetron sputtering. In here, MgO film was used to perform that a diffusion b arrier between the BST film and Si substrate and a buffer layer to assist the BST film growth. A d eposition condition for MgO films was RF Power of 50W, substrate temperature of room temperature and the working gas ratio of Ar:O$_2$ were varied from 90:10 to 60:47. Finally we manufactured the cap acitor of Al/BST/MgO/Si/Al structure to know electrical properties of this capacitor through I-V, C-V measurement. In the results, C-V aha racteristic curves was shown a ferroelectric property so we measured P-E. A remanent poliazation and coerceive electric field was present 2$\mu$C/cm$^2$ and -27kV/cm respectively at Ar:O$_2$=90:10. And a va clue of dielectric constant was 86 at Ar:02=90:10.

The PSA cycle was performed for the separation of binary gas mixture $H_2/Ar$ (80%/20%) using the six-step two-bed process. Adsorption equilibrium contains a LRC model for equilibrium adsorption isotherms and a LDF model for mass transfer. Aspen ADSIM, simulator was applied to predict the separation performance. The effect of cycle parameters such as feed rate, adsorption pressure and P/F ratio on the separation of hydrogen has been studied in experiment and simulation. In the results, maximize the recovery of hydrogen as a high purity was 13LPM feed flowrate, 120sec adsorption time, 11atm adsorption pressure and 0.1 P/F ratio in a cyclic steady-state come out since 10th cycle.

Low-Pressure inductively coupled RF discharge sources have important industrial applications mainly because they can provide a high-density electrodeless plasma source with low ion energy and low power loss. In an inductive discharge, the RF power is coupled to the plasma by an electromagnetic interaction with the current flowing in a coil. In this paper, the experiments have been focussed on the electric characteristic and carried out using a single Langmuir probe. The internal electric characteristics of inductively coupled Ar RF discharge at 13.56 [MHz] have been measured over a wide range of power at gas pressure ranging from $1{\sim}70$ [mTorr].

The metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor (MFS) structure is widely studied for nondestructive readout (NDRO) memory devices, but conventional MFS structure has a critical problem. It is difficult to obtain ferroelectric films like PZT on Si substrate without interdiffusion of impurities such as Pb, Ti and other elements. In order to solve these problems, the metal-ferroelectric-insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) structure has been proposed with a buffer layer of high dielectric constant such as MgO, $Y_2O_3$, and $CeO_2$. In this study, the etching characteristics (etch rate, selectivity) of MgO thin films were etched using $Cl_2/Ar$ plasma. The maximum etch rate of 85 nm/min for MgO thin films was obtained at $Cl_2$(30%)/Ar(70%) gas mixing ratio. Also, the etch rate was measured by varying the etching parameters such as ICP rf power, dc-bias voltage, and chamber pressure. Plasma diagnostics was performed by Langmuir probe (LP) and optical emission spectroscopy (OES).

ZnS is an attractive material for future optical and electrical devices since it has a direct and wide band gap to provide blue emission at room temperature. In this study, inductively coupled $BCl_3/Ar$ plasma was used to etch ZnS:Mn thin films. The maximum etch rate of 164.2 nm/min for ZnS:Mn was obtained at a $BCl_3(20)/Ar(80)$ gas mixing ratio, an rf power of 700 W, a dc bias voltage of -200V, a total gas flow of 20 sccm, and a chamber pressure of 1Pa. The etch behaviors of ZnS:Mn thin films under various plasma parameters showed that the ZnS:Mn were effectively removed by the chemically assisted physical etching mechanism. The surface reaction of the ZnS:Mn thin films was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The XPS analysis revealed that Mn had detected on the surface ZnS:Mn etched in $BCl_3/Ar$ plasma.

In this paper, since the research on the etching of SrBi$_2$Ta$_2$$O_{9}$(SBT) thin film was few (specially Cl$_2$-base) we had studied the surface reaction of SBT thin films. We have used the OES(optical emission spectroscopy) in high density plasma etching as a function of RF power, dc bias voltage, and Cl$_2$/(Cl$_2$+Ar) gas mixing ratio. It had been found that the etch rate of SBT thin films appeared to be more affected by the physical sputtering between Ar ions and surface of the SBT compared to the chemical reaction. The change of Cl radical density that was measured by the OES as a function of gas combination showed the change of the etch rate of SBT thin films. Therefore, the chemical reactions between Cl radical in plasma and components of the SBT enhanced to increase the etch rates SBT thin films. These results were confirmed by XPS(x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) analysis.s.

Zinc Oxide(ZnO) thin films on Si (100) substrates were deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering. The characteristics of zinc oxide thin films with changing sputtering conditions such as argon/oxygen gas ratios, RF power, and substrate temperature, chamber pressure and target-substrate distance were investigated. To analyze a crystallographic properties of the films, $\theta/2{\theta}$ mode X -ray diffraction, 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 $28.7{\AA}$.

The thermal decomposition of tetrakis(ethylmethylamido) titanium (TEMAT) has been investigated in Ar and $H_2$ gas atmospheres at gas temperatures of 100-400 ${^{\circ}C}$ by using Fourier Transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) as a fundamental study for the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of titanium nitride (TiN) thin film. The activation energy for the decomposition of TEMAT was estimated to be 10.92 kcal/mol and the reaction order was determined to be the first order. The decomposition behavior of TEMAT was affected by ambient gases. TEMAT was decomposed into the intermediate forms of imine (C=N) compounds in Ar and $H_2$ atmosphere, but additional nitrile (RC$\equiv$N) compound was observed only in $H_2$ atmosphere. The decomposition rate of TEMAT under $H_2$ atmosphere was slower than that in Ar atmosphere, which resulted in the extension of the regime of the surface reaction control in the CVD TiN process.

Atmospheric pressure non-thermal plasma of the needle-typed interaction with aqueous solutions has received increasing attention for their biomedical applications [1]. In this context, surface discharges at bio-solutions were investigated experimentally. We have generated the non-thermal plasma jet bombarding the bio-solution surface by using an Ar gas flow and investigated the emission lines by OES (optical emission spectroscopy) [2]. Moreover, The non-thermal plasma interaction with bio-solutions has received increasing attention for their biomedical applications. So we researched, the OH radical density of various biological solutions in the surface by non-thermal plasma were investigated by Ar gases. The OH radical density of DI water; deionized water, DMEM Dulbecco's modified eagle medium, and PBS; 1x phosphate buffered saline by non-thermal plasma jet. It is noted that the OH radical density of DI water and DMEM are measured to be about $4.33{\times}1016cm-3$ and $2.18{\times}1016cm-3$, respectively, under Ar gas flow 250 sccm (standard cubic centimeter per minute) in this experiment. The OH radical density of buffer solution such as PBS has also been investigated and measured to be value of about $2.18{\times}1016cm-3$ by the ultraviolet optical absorption spectroscopy.
