$Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CuO_{x}$(Bi-2201) thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion bearn sputtering method. 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mixed with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. At early stages of the atomic layer by layer deposition. two dimensional epitaxial growth which covers the substrate surface would be suppressed by the stress and strain caused by the lattice misfit. then three dimensional growth takes place. Since Cu element is the most difficult to oxidize. only Sr and Bi react with each other predominantly. and forms a buffer layer on the substrate in an amorphous-like structure. which is changed to $SrBi_{2}O_{4}$ by in-situ anneal.

We report a new patterning technique of inorganic materials by using thin-film transfer printing (TFTP) with atomic layer deposition. This method consists of the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of inorganic thin film and a nanotransfer printing (nTP) that is based on a water-mediated transfer process. In the TFTP method, the Al2O3 ALD growth occurs on FTS-coated PDMS stamp without specific chemical species, such as hydroxyl group. The CF3-terminated alkylsiloxane monolayer, which is coated on PDMS stamp, provides a weak adhesion between the deposited Al2O3 and stamp, and promotes the easy and complete release of Al2O3 film from the stamp. And also, the water layer serves as an adhesion layer to provide good conformal contact and form strong covalent bonding between the Al2O3 layer and Si substrate. Thus, the TFTP technique is potentially useful for making nanochannels of various inorganic materials.

Titanium dioxide ($TiO_2$) films are deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using titanium isopropoxide (TTIP) and $H_2O$ as precursors. The operating instructions for the ALD equipment are described in detail, along with the settings for relevant parameters. The thickness of the $TiO_2$ film is measured, and thereby, the deposition rate is quantitatively estimated to verify the linearity of the deposition rate.

We fabricate the conductive zinc oxide(ZnO) thin film using UV-enhanced atomic layer deposition. ZnO is semiconductor with a wide band gap(3.37eV) and transparent in the visible region. ZnO can be deposited with various method, such as metal organic chemical vapour deposition, magnetron sputtering and pulsed laser ablation deposition. In this experiment, ZnO thin films was deposited by atomic layer deposition using diethylzinc (DEZ) and D.I water as precursors with UV irradiation during water dosing. As a function of UV exposure time, the resistivity of ZnO thin films decreased dramatically. We were able to confirm that UV irradiation is one of the effective way to improve conductivity of ZnO thin film. The resistivity was investigated by 4 point probe. Additionally, we confirm the thin film composition is ZnO by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We anticipate that this UV-enhanced ZnO thin film can be applied to electronics or photonic devices as transparent electrode.

Aluminum-doped Zinc Oxide (AZO) is considered as an excellent candidate to replace Indium Tin Oxide (ITO), which is widely used as transparent conductive oxide (TCO) for electronic devices such as liquid crystal displays (LCDs), organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) and organic solar cells (OSCs). In the present study, AZO thin film was applied to the transparent electrode of a channel-shaped flexible organic solar cell using a low-temperature selective-area atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. AZO thin films were deposited on Poly-Ethylene-Naphthalate (PEN) substrates with Di-Ethyl-Zinc (DEZ) and Tri-Methyl-Aluminum (TMA) as precursors and $H_2O$ as an oxidant for the atomic layer deposition at the deposition temperature of $130^{\circ}C$. The pulse time of TMA, DEZ and $H_2O$, and purge time were 0.1 second and 20 second, respectively. The electrical and optical properties of the AZO films were characterized as a function of film thickness. The 300 nm-thick AZO film grown on a PEN substrate exhibited sheet resistance of $87{\Omega}$/square and optical transmittance of 84.3% at a wavelength between 400 and 800 nm.

Plasma Enhanced Atomic Layer Deposition(PEALD)와 Atomic Layer Deposition(ALD) Techniques는 '정확한 두께 조절' 및 '우수한 균일도'를 가지는 신뢰할 수 있는 진공 기술이다. 본 연구에서는 다공성 구조를 가지는 기판을 대상으로 PEALD와 ALD Techniques을 이용한 $Al_2O_3$ 형성 공정의 증착 특성을 비교하였다. 각 공정은 공통적으로 Tris-Methyl-Aluminium(TMA)을 첫번째 전구체로 사용하였고 purge gas로는 Nitrogen를 사용하였다. 그리고 두번째 전구체로 PEALD 공정에서는 Oxygen Plasma를 사용하였고 ALD 공정에서는 Water를 사용하였다. 복잡한 다공성 구조를 가지는 기판은 $TiO_2$ Nano-Particle paste과 colloidal Silver paste를 소결시켜 제작하여 사용하였다. 각 공정의 차이점을 비교하기 위해서 배기단에 Capacitor Diaphram Gauge(CDG)와 Residual Gas Analyzer(RGA)를 통해서 압력과 잔류 가스를 모니터하였다. 그리고 각 공정을 통해서 porous한 Nano-Particles Network에 형성된 $Al_2O_3$막의 특성을 비교하기 위해서 FE-SEM과 EDX를 통해서 관찰하였다. 또한 좀 더 자세한 비교 분석을 위해서 $Al_2O_3$ 막이 형성된 porous한 Nano-Particles Networks의 각 각의 particles들을 분산시켜 TEM과 AFM를 통해서 관찰하였다. 나아가 전기적 물성의 차이점을 비교하기 위해서 IV 및 CV를 측정하였다. 위의 일련의 비교 실험을 통해서 'PEALD과 ALD을 이용한 다공성 기판의 증착 특성'에 대하여 고찰하였다.

Titanium (IV) dioxide (TiO2) is one of the most attractive d-block transition metal functional oxides. Many applications of TiO2 such as dye-sensitized solar cells and photocatalyst have been widely investigated. To utilize solar energy efficiently, TiO2 should be well-aligned with a high surface area and promote the charge separation as well as electron transport. Herein, the TiO2 nanotubes were successfully fabricated by a template-directed method. The electrospun PEO(Polyethylene oxide, Molecular weight, 400k)fibers were used as a soft template for coating with titanium dioxide using an atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. The deposition was conducted onto a template at 50$^{\circ}C$ by using titaniumisopropoxide [Ti(OCH(CH3)2)4; TTIP] as precursors of TiO2. While the as-deposited TiO2 layers onto PEO fibers were completely amorphous with atomic layer deposition, the TiO2 layers after calcination at 500$^{\circ}C$ for 1 h were properly converted into polycrystalline nanostructured hallow TiO2 nanotube. The TiO2 nanotube with high surface area can be easily handled and reclaimed for use in future applications related to solar cell fabrications.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD) is a very promising deposition technique for ZnO thin films. However, there have been very few reports on ZnO grown by ALD. Effects of substrate temperature in both ALD and post annealing on the microstructure and PL properties of ZnO thin films were investigated using X-ray diffraction, photoluminescence, and scanning electron microscopy. The temperature window of ALD is found to be between $130-180^{\circ}C$. The growth rate of ZnO thin film increases as the substrate temperature increases in the temperature range except the temperature window. The crystal quality depends most strongly on the substrate temperature among all the growth parameters of ALD. The crystallinity of the film is improved by increasing the growth thine per ALD cycle or doing post-annealing treatment. The grain size of the film tends to increase and the grain shape tends to change from a worm-like longish shape to a round one as the annealing temperature increases from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;1,000^{\circ}C$.

Atomic layer deposition (ALD)에 의한 알루미늄 산화 막(Al2O3)은 고효율 결정질 실리콘 태양전지를 위한 우수한 표면 패시베이션 특성을 제공한다. 알루미늄 산화막는 고정적인 음전하를 가지고 있기 때문에 p-형 실리콘 태양 전지 후면은 전계에 의한 우수한 패시베이션 효과를 형성한다. 그러나, ALD 방식으로 증착된 알루미늄 산화막은 매우 긴 공정 시간을 필요로 하기 때문에 기존의 실리콘 태양 전지 공정에 적용하기가 어렵다. 본 논문에서는 알루미늄 산화막 형성에서 공정 시간을 줄이기 위해 Plasma assisted atomic layer deposition (PA-ALD) 방식을 적용했다. PA-ALD 기술은 trimethylaluminum (TMA)과 O2를 사용하여 기판 표면에 알루미늄 산화막을 증착하는 것으로 ALD 방식과 유사하지만, O2 플라즈마를 사용함으로써 증착 속도를 향상시킬 수 있다. 이는 좋은 패시베이션 특성을 가지는 알루미늄 산화막을 실리콘 태양전지양산 공정에 적용할 수 있는 가능성을 제시한다. PA-ALD 방식에 의한 알루미늄 산화막의 패시베이션 특성을 최적화하기 위해서 증착 후 열처리 조건에 대한 연구도 수행하였다. 막증착률이 1.1${\AA}$/cycle인 Al2O3층의 두께 변화에 따른 특성을 최적화하기 위해 공정 온도를 $250^{\circ}C$ 고정하고, 열처리 온도와 시간을 가변하였으며 유효 반송자수명을 측정하여 알루미늄 산화막의 패시베이션 특성을 확인했다.

Different active layer thicknesses for zinc oxide (ZnO) bottom-contact thin-film transistors (TFTs) were fabricated with a poly-4-vinyphenol polymeric dielectric using injector type atomic layer deposition. The properties of the ZnO TFTs were influenced by the active thickness and width-to-length (W/L) ratio of the device. The threshold voltage of ZnO TFTs shifted positively as the active layer thickness decreased, while the subthreshold slope decreased. The W/L ratio of ZnO TFTs also affected the mobility and subthreshold slope. An optimized TFT structure exhibited an on-tooff current ratio of above 106 with solid saturation.
