Tin oxide films have been grown employing the chemical vapor deposition technique under reduced pressure conditions using tetramethyltin as the precursor and oxygen as the oxidant. An activation energy derived for the deposition reaction under representative deposition conditions has a value of 89±3 kJ mol-1, suggesting a typical kinetic control. Deposition rates of tin oxide films exhibit a near first order dependence on tetramethyltin partial pressure and a zeroth order dependence on oxygen partial pressure. This study provides the first quantitative information about the growth kinetics of tin oxide films from tetramethyltin by the cold-wall low-pressure chemical vapor deposition.

Silicon carbide (SiC) films were deposited by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) using MTS (CH3SICl3) in a hydrogen atmosphere onto graphite substrates. Depletion effects of reactants which usually occur in the hot wall horizaontal reactor were increased with deposition temperature and pressure. Below 50 torr of total pressure (111) plane was preferenctially grown irrespectrive of deposition temperature and deposition site. Over 50 torr of total pressure however (220) plane was preferentially deposited under 130$0^{\circ}C$ and at inlet site. The surface morphologies of SiC films were uniform at all deposition sites under low pressure but greatly changed with pressure. It shows that a facet structure which was formed above 125$0^{\circ}C$ played an important role in the changed of preferred orientation and surface roughness.

To study the applications for ferroelectric non-volatile memory and ferroelectric memristor, etc., deposition pressure dependent electric the properties of $(Hf,\;Zr)O_2$ thin films by RF sputtering deposition method were investigated. The bottom electrode was TiN thin film to produce stress effect on the formation of orthorhombic phase and top electrode was Pt thin film by DC sputtering deposition. Deposition pressure was varied along with the same other deposition conditions, for example, sputtering power, target to substrate distance, post-annealing temperature, annealing gas, annealing time, etc. The structural and electric properties of the above thin films were investigated. As a result, it is confirmed that the electric properties of the $(Hf,\;Zr)O_2$ thin films depend on the deposition pressure which affects structural properties of the thin films, such as, structural phase, ratio of the constituents, etc.

Chemical vapor deposited tungsten films were formed in a cold wall reactor at pressures higher (10~120torr) than those conventionally employed (<1torr). SiH4, in addition to H2, was used as the reduction gas. The effects of pressure and reaction temperature on the deposition rate and morphology of the films were ex-amined under the above conditions. No encroachment or silicon consumption was observed in the tungsten de-posited specimens. A high deposition rate of tungsten and a good step coverage of the deposited films were ob-tained at 40~80 torr and at a temperature range of $360~380^{\circ}C$. The surface roughness and the resistivity of the deposited film increased with pressure. The deposition rate of tungsten increased with the total pressure in the reaction chamber when the pressure was below 40 torr, whereas it decreased when the total pressure ex-ceedeed 40 torr. The deposition rate also showed a maximum value at $360^{\circ}C$ regardless of the gas pressure in the chamber. The results suggest that the deposition mechanism varies with pressure and temperature, the surface reac-tion determines the overall reaction rate and (2) at higher pressures(>40 torr) or temperatures(>36$0^{\circ}C$), the rate is controlled by the dtransportation rate of reactive gas molecules. It was shown from XRD analysis that WSi2 and metastable $\beta$-W were also formed in addition to W by reactions between WF6 and SiH4.

Sb doped SnO2(ATO:Antinomy doped Tin Oxide) thin films were prepared by a DC magnetron spttuering method using oxide target and the deposition characteristics were investigated. The experimental conditions are as follows :Ar flow rate : 100 sccm oxygen flow rates ; 0-100 sccm deposition temperature ; 250 -40$0^{\circ}C$ DC sputter powder ; 150~550 W and sputtering pressure ; ; 2~7 mTorr. Deposition rate greatly depends not on the deposition temperature but on the reaction pressure oxygen flow rate and sputter power,. when the sputter powder is low ATO thin films with (110) preferred orientation are deposited. And when the sputter power is high (110) prefered orientation appeares with decreasing of oxygen flow rate and increasing of suputte-ring pressure.

In order to investigate residence time effect on the growth of ZrC film, the ZrC films grew with various system total pressure (P) and total flow rate (Q) by low pressure chemical vapor deposition because residence time is function of system total pressure and total flow rate. Thermodynamic calculations predict that the decomposition of source gases ($ZrCl_4$ and $CH_4$) would be low as increasing the residence time. Thermodynamic calculations results were proved by investigating deposition rate with various residence time. Deposition rate decreased with residence time of source gas increased. Besides, depletion effect accelerated diminution of deposition rate at high residence time. On the other hands, the deposition rated was increased as decreasing the residence time because fast moving of intermediate gas species decrease the depletion effect. The crystal structure was not changed with residence time. However, the largest size of faceted grain showed up to specific residence time and the size of grain was decreased whether residence time increase or not.

ZnO thin films were deposited on (001) sapphire substrate at various ambient gas pressure by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Oxygen was used as ambient gas, and oxygen gas pressure was varied from 1.0${\times}$10$\^$-6/ Torr to 500 mTorr during the film deposition. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region below critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region increase. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region above critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region decrease. Each of critical ambient gas Pressures was 350 mTorr for UV emission and 200 mTorr for green emission.

Zirconium oxide films have been synthesized by radio-frequency magnetron sputtering deposition on n-Si(001) substrate with metal zirconium target at variant $O_2$ partial pressures. The influences of $O_2$ partial pressures of the morphology, deposition rate, microstructure, and the dielectric constant of $ZrO_2$ have been discussed. The results show that deposition rate of $ZrO_2$ films decreases, the roughness, and the thickness of the native $SiO_2$ interlayer increases with the increase of $O_2$ partial pressure. $ZrO_2$ films synthesized at low $O_2$ partial pressure are amorphous and monoclinic polycrystalline in nanometer scale at low $O_2$ partial pressure. The relative dielectrics of $ZrO_2$ films are in the range of 12 to 25.

Si thin films on p-type (100) Si substrate have been fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser. The pressure of the environmental gas during deposition was varied from 1 to 3 Torr. After deposition, Si thin film has been annealed again at nitrogen ambient. Strong violet-indigo photoluminescence have been observed from Si thin film annealed in nitrogen ambient gas. As increasing environmental gas pressure, weak green and red emissions from annealed Si thin films also observed by photoluminescence.

Amorphous carbon nitride films were deposited on Si(001) substrates by a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique (PECVD) using $CH_4$and $N_2$as reaction gases. The growth and film properties were investigated while the gas ratio and the working pressure were changed systematically. At 1 Torr working pressure, an increase in the $N_2$partial pressure results in a significant increase of the deposition rate as well as an apparent presence of C ≡N bonding, while little affecting the microstructure and amorphus nature of the films. In the case of changing the working pressure at a fixed $N_2$partial pressure of 98%, a film grown at a medium pressure of $1${\times}$10^{-2}$ Torr shows the most prominent C=N bonding nature and photoluminescent property.
