  • TiO$_2$thin films were prepared on the glass by a conventional spin coating method with $TiO_2$ sol(30wt%, anatase). The thickness of the thin films were controlled by the number of coating cycles: one cycle is composed of spin coating, drying, and heating process. The reaction rate of the film was obtained by the photodecomposition of gaseous benzene under 0.44 and 2.0mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$ UV light on the film surface. For an incident UV light intensity of 0.44mW/$\textrm{cm}^2$, the reaction rate was increased with the thickness of the film, caused by extent of surface area, but there was no change over the thickness of about 4$\mu\textrm{m}$. The porous $TiO_2$ thin film has comparatively vast effective surface area, which under relatively high-intensity UV illumination causes the reaction rate to be controlled by the film thickness.

  • UV-curable hard coating solutions were prepared by mixing organic or inorganic polysilazane with urethane acrylate. UV-cured hard coating films were also obtained by flow coating, subsequently UV-curing on polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) sheets. The effect of types and amounts of polysilazane was investigated on properties of obtained coating films. As a result, the coatings obtained by using organic polysilazane showed a high hydrophobic property with water contact angle of $95^{\circ}$, pencil hardness of 7H and high transparency of 92% in the visible wavelength range. On the other hand, the PMMA sheets made by using inorganic polysilazane exhibited a pencil hardness of as high as 8H, good adhesion to the substrate and water contact angle of $82^{\circ}$.

  • In this study, to prepare the dielectric (Ba, Sr)TiO3 thin films by the sol-gel process, Titaminum (IV) sio-propoxide (Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4), Ba and Sr acetate were used for sol and thin films were prepared by dip-coating process. Stability of sol decreased with the increase of Sr, and thickness of thin films were obtained 0.13~0.17${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ by 1 coating cycle. Transmittance of amorphous thin films heated at 500 and 55$0^{\circ}C$ was very good, and crystallization tendency of thin films according to heat-treatment temperature and crystallization characteristics of thin films heated at 11$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 hrs were analysed. As a result, good perovskite structure was obtained higher than 100$0^{\circ}C$, and tetragonality of thin film was decreased but pyrochlore was formed with increasing Sr. In case of addition to substitute 0.4mol% Sr for Ba, dielectric constant was 288 and loss factor (tan $\delta$) was 0.04.

  • Zinc oxide (ZnO) based transparent oxide semiconductors have been studied due to their high transmittance and electrical conductivity. Pure ZnO have unstable optical and electrical properties at high temperatures but doped ZnO thin films can have stable optical and electrical properties. In this paper, transparent oxide semiconductors of Y-doped ZnO thin films prepared by sol-gel method. The ionic radius of $Y^{3+}$ (0.90 A) is close to that of $Zn^{2+}$ (0.74 A), which makes Y suitable dopant for ZnO thin films. The Sn-doped ZnO thin films were deposited onto quartz substrates with different atomic percentages of dopant which were Y/Zn = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 at.%. These thin films were pre-heated at $150^{\circ}C$ for 10 min and then annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ or 1 h. The structural and optical properties of the Y-doped ZnO thin films were investigated using field-emission scanning electronmicroscopy (FE-SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-visible spectroscopy, and photoluminescence (PL).

  • Ferroelectric $Bi_{3.35}Sm_{0.65}Ti_{3}O_{12}(BSmT)$ thin films were synthesized by sol-gel process. In this experiments, $Bi(TMHD)_{3},\;Sm_{5}(O^{i}Pr)_{13},\;Ti(O^{i}Pr)_4$ were used as precursors, which were dissolved in 2-methoxyethanol. The BSmT thin films were deposited on the Pt/TiO/SiO/Si substrates by spin-coating. Thereafter, the thin films with the thickness of 240 nm were annealed from 600 to $720^{\circ}C$ in oxygen atmosphere for 1 h, and post-annealed in oxygen atmosphere for 1 h after deposition of Pt electrode to enhance the electrical properties. To investigate the effects of Sm-substitution in the BTO thin films, the BTO and BSmT thin films were prepared, respectively. The remanent polarization and coercive voltage of the BSmT thin films annealed at $720^{\circ}C$ were $19.48{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 3.40 V, respectively.

  • To prepare the dielectric thin films of (Pb1-xSrx)TiO3 (x=0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.35, 0.5) by the sol-gel process titanium (IV) isopropoxide (Ti[OCH(CH3)2]4) and Pb Sr, acetate were used therefore the thin films were fabricated by dip-coating method. Stability of the sol decreased with addition of Sr content thin films could be fabricated up to 35mol% Over this range precipitation of sol occured thin films couldn't be obtained. Transmittance of thin films at visible range decreased with the increase of heat-treatment temperature but exhibited transmit-tance above 60% in all case. Moreover transmittance of thin films at visible range slightly increased with of addition of Sr,. When thin film containing 30 mol% srontium was heated at 600℃ the best perovskite phase was obtained. The dielectric constant (ε) was 280 and dielectric loss factor (tan δ) was 0.021 and curie tempera-ture (Tc) decreased with the increase of addition of Sr.

  • Transparent $TiO_2$ thin films have been prepared by sol-gel spin coating method. The sols used for deposition of thin films were prepared with different ethanol content. The effect of ethanol (solvent) concentration and annealing temperature on the performance of $TiO_2$ thin film solar cells has been studied. The results indicate that the as deposited films are amorphous in nature. $TiO_2$ thin films annealed at temperatures above $350^{\circ}C$ exhibited crystalline nature with anatase phase. The results also indicated that the crystallinity of the films improved with increase of annealing temperature. The high resolution transmission electron microscope images showed lattice fringes corresponding to the anatase phase of $TiO_2$. The band gap of the deposited films has been found to decrease with increase in annealing temperature and increase with increase in ethanol concentration. The dependents of photovoltaic efficiency of the dye-sensitized $TiO_2$ thin film solar cells (DSSCs) with the amount of ethanol used to prepare thin films was determined from photocurrent-voltage curves.

  • ($Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$thin films were perpared on ITO-coated glass substrate by spin-coating method. The sol was sonicated in an ultrasonic bath to promote homogenization and the results were compared with untreated case. By application of the sonication process, crystallization temperatures of films were reduced, microstructers of films were more uniform and denser and the surface roughness of the films was lower from 8.4nm to 5.6nm. In addition, optical transmittances and electrical properties of films prepraed from sonicated sol were superior to those of films from untreated.
