비정질 탄소막 제조에 있어서 수소가 포함된 반응성 가스를 사용할 경우 제작된 탄소막 내부에는 수소가 포함되게 되며, 이러한 수소원자들은 막의 특성에 중요한 영향을 주는 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 비정질 탄소막(a-C:H) 내부에 존재하는 수소가 탄소막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 알아보고, 막 내부에 포함된 수소의 함량과 공정조건 사이의 함수계를 조사함으로써 수소의 함량을 인위적으로 통제할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하고자 한다. 수소가 포함된 비정질 탄소막은 2.45 GHz의 전자기파를 사용하는 electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (ECR-PECVD) 방법과 DC magnetron sputtering 법을 사용하여 제작하였다. 기판으로는 Si(001) wafer를 사용하였으며, 아세톤과 에탄올을 사용하여 표면의 유기성분을 제거하고, 진공챔버속에서 Ar 플라즈마를 발생시켜 sputter etching 방법으로 표면을 세척하였다. ECR-PECVD 방법에서는 반응가스로 메탄(CH4)과 수소(H2)의 혼합가스를 사용하였으며, 혼합가스의 비는 5~50% 범위내에서 변화를 주었다. 수소가스의 유량은 100SCCM으로 고정하였으며, 마이크로웨이브의 power는 360~900W였고, 기판에 가해준 negative DC bias 전압은 0~-500V이었다. DC magnetron sputtering 방법에서는 반응가스로 아세틸린(C2H2) 가스를 사용하였으며, 플라즈마 발생을 용이하게 하기 위해서 Ar 가스와 혼합하여 사용하였다. Ar 가스의 유량은 10SCCM으로 고정하였으며, 아세틸렌 가스의 유량은 5~20SCCM 범위내에서 주입하였다. 이때, 기판에 가해준 negative DC bias 전압은 0~-100V이었다. 제작된 탄소막의 수소 함량을 조사하기 위하여 Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) 분광법과 Elastic Recoil Detection Analysis (EFDA) 법을 사용하였으며, 증착율은 SEM 단면촬영과 a-step을 이용하여 측정하였고, 막의 경도는 Micro-Hardness Testing 법을 사용하여 측정하였다.

NiCr thin film was deposited by DC magnetron sputtering on $A;_2O_3$/Si substrate with NiCr (80:20) alloy target. NiCr thin films were annealed at $300^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C,\;500^{\circ}C,\;600^{\circ}C,\;and\;700^{\circ}C$ for 6 hr in $H_2$ after annealing at $500^{\circ}C$ for 6hr in air atmosphere, respectively. To analyze NiCr thin film properties, the changes of its micro structure were Investigated through field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to analyze a surface of NiCr thin film. Resistance of NiCr thin film was measured by 4-point probe technique. The generated heats were measured by infrared thermometer through the application of DC voltage (5 V/l2 V). NiCr thin film treated by gradational double annealing process had uniform and small grains. Maximum temperature generated heat by NiCr micro heater was $173^{\circ}C$. We expect that our results will be a useful reference in the realization of NiCr micro heater.

Stainless steel is being used widely lor various purposes due to its good corrosion resistance. There has becn much research to produce colored stainless sterl by several methods. In this experiment, we coated TixN film on the SUS304 substrate with thc DC magnetron sputtering system and studied the internal structurc and adhesive strength of the films as a function of the coating conditions. Before lhe specimen was coated, a sputter etching was very effective in removing the$\delta$ Fe(BCC) phase as well as the contaminant and oxide layer as well as increasing rotghness. Five-stage failure mode appeared with increased scratch load with the TIN films coated on the SUS304 in this manner ; tensile failure-,conformal failure-,buckling failure->chipping failurc and spalling Failure. When the failure was terminated at the initial stage, the film will have good adhesion. But, if syalling failure has occurred at the initial scratch, then the adhesion will be poor. The interlayer between thc coated film and thc substratc was homogeneously adhcsive when the $\gamma'-Fe_4N$ phase wasn't detected in the XRD analysis and the adhesive strength only was reduced by surPace defects. But, when the ,$\gamma'-Fe_4N$N phasc was detected in the XRD analysis, the adhesive strength was very poor.

Al doped zinc oxide films (ZnO:Al) were deposited on glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering from a ZnO target mixed with 2 wt% $Al_2O_3$. The as-deposited ZnO:Al films were rapid-thermal annealed. Electrical properties and structural evolution of the films, as annealed by rapid thermal process (RTP), were studied and compared with the films annealed by conventional annealing process. RTP, the (002) peak intensity increases and the electrical resistivity decreases by 20%, after RT annealing. The effects of RT annealing on the structural evolution and electrical properties of RF sputtered films were further discussed and compared also with the films deposited by DC magnetron sputtering.

The dc magnetron sputter deposited (Pt/Co/Pt/Ni) multilayers which exhibited Curie temperatures in the range of 150-$300^{\circ}C$ were studied as possible alternative multilayers for magneto-optical recording to the widely studied Co/Pt, whose Curie temperatures are in the range of 200~$400^{\circ}C$. The Coercivities of these multilayers were between 450 Oe and 800 Oe. These multilayers exhibited comparable magnetic and magneto-optical properties to Co/Pt multilayers with enhancement of the Kerr rotation at lower wavelengths and negligible Kerr ellipticity over a wide range of the spectrum (4000~7000$\AA$ ).

TiAlN films were deposited on WC-5Co substrates with different buffer layers by D.C. magnetron sputtering. The films were evaluated by microstructural observations and measuring of preferred orientation, hardness value, and adhesion force. As a process variable, various buffer layers were used such as TiAlN single layer, TiAlN/TiAl, TiAlN/TiN and TiAlN/CrN. TiAlN coating layer showed columnar structures which grew up at a right angle to the substrates. The thickness of the TiAlN coating layer was about $1.8{\mu}m$, which was formed for 200 minutes at $300^{\circ}$. XRD analysis showed that the preferred orientation of TiAlN layer with TiN buffer layer was (111) and (200), and the specimens of TiAlN/TiAl, TiAlN/CrN, TiAlN single layer have preferred orientation of (111), respectively. TiAlN single layer and TiAlN/TiAl showed good adhesion properties, showing an over 80N adhesion force, while TiAlN/TiN film showed approximately 13N and the TiAlN/CrN was the worst case, in which the layer was destroyed because of high internal residual stress. The value of micro vickers hardness of the TiAlN single layer, TiAlN/TiAl and TiAlN/TiN layers were 2711, 2548 and 2461 Hv, respectively.

Transparent, conductive electrode films, showing the particular characteristics of good conductivity and high transparency, are of considerable research interest because of their potential for use in opto-electronic applications, such as smart window, photovoltaic cells and flat panel displays. Multilayer transparent electrodes, having a much lower electrical resistance than widely-used transparent conducting oxide electrodes, were prepared by using RF/DC magnetron sputtering system. The multilayer structure consisted of three layers, [NiInZnO(NIZO)/Ag/NIZO]. The optical and electrical properties of the multilayered NIZO/Ag/NIZO structure were investigated in relation to the thickness of each layer. The optical and electrical characteristics of multilayer structures have been investigated as a function of the Ag and NIZO film thickness. High-quality transparent conductive films have been obtained, with sheet resistance of $9.8{\Omega}/sq$ for Ag film thickness of 8 nm. Also the multilayer films of inserted Ag 8 nm thickness showed a high optical transmittance above 93% in the visible range. The electrical and optical properties of the new multilayer films were mainly dependent on the thickness of Ag insertion layer.

This paper presents a magnetostrictive transpositioner and its fabrication process. To get a transposition movement without shifting or twisting, it is designed as an array type. To fabricate the suggested design, micromachining and selective DC magnetron sputtering processes are combined. TbDyFe film is sputter-deposited on the back side of the bulk micromachined transpositioner, with the condition as: Ar gas pressure below $1.2{\times}10^{-9}$ torr, DC input power of 180W and heating temperature of up to $250^{\circ}C$ for the wireless control of each array component. After the sputter process, magnetization and magnetostriction of each sample are measured. X-ray diffraction studies are also carried out to determine the film structure and thickness of the sputtered film. For the operation, each component of the actuator has same length and out-of-plane motion. Each component is actuated by externally applied magnetic fields up to 0.5T and motion of the device made upward movement. As a result, deflections of the device due to the movement for the external magnetic fields are observed.

HVPE법으로 $3{\mu}m$의 GaN epi를 성장하고 이 위에 DC 마그네트론 Sputter를 이용하여 Ti stripe 패턴 형성하였으며 다시 HVPE를 이용하여 $120{\mu}m$ ~ $300{\mu}m$ 두께의 GaN를 overgrowth하였다. 성장된 GaN는 SEM 측정으로 Ti 패턴한 부분에서 void가 관찰되었고 보다 두꺼운 GaN를 성장시에는 크랙이 void를 따라 발생할 수 있음을 확인하였으며 XRD측정으로 FWHM은 188 arcsec로 측정되었다. 성장전의 GaN epi와의 반치폭을 비교하였을 때 패턴에 사용된 Ti는 overgrowth시 결정성에는 크게 영향을 주지 않는다는 것을 확인하였다.

초고집적 반도체 회로에서 Cu를 배선으로 쓰이기 위한 Cu 금속과 Si 기판사이의 확산방지막으로써 Zr(Si)N 박막을 연구하였다. Zr(Si)N 박막증착은 DC magnetron sputter으로 $Ar/N_2$의 혼합 gas를 사용한 reactive sputtering 방법을 이용하였다. 상온에서 ZrN 박막 증착시 Ar gas와 NE gas 비율이 48 : 2일 때 가장 낮은 비저항값을 가졌으며, 증착시 기판의 온도의 증가에 따라서 비저항값이 낮아졌다. 비저항값이 감소된 ZrN 박막일수록 (002)면의 방향성을 갖는 결정이 성장되었다. ZrN 박막의 Cu 확산방지 특성은 ZrN 박막에 Si을 첨가함으로써 개선될 수 있으며 지나치게 첨가될 경우에는 오히려 확산방지 특성이 감소되었다. 접착력 특성에서는 ZrN에 Si의 함유량이 증가함에 파라 개선되었다. 증착막의 특성은 XRD, 광학 현미경, scretch tester 그리고 $\alpha$-step 등을 사용하여 분석하였다.
