  • We have investigated aluminum cluster deposition using a classical molecular dynamics simulations. We studied the variations of the cluster momentum and the impulse force during collisions, and found that the close-packed cluster impact has some of properties of the single particle collision and the linear atomic chain collisions. We also simulated the series of energetic cluster deposition with energy Per atom. When energy Per atom in cluster has some eV rather than very low, the intermixing occurred easily in growth film and we can obtain a good film without subsequent annealing process.

  • In this study, thin YSZ film was prepared by electrostatic spray deposition. The morphology of thin film was strongly influenced by precursor solution and substrate temperature. Especially, dense YSZ film was obtained at the substrate temperature of $400^{\circ}C$. The YSZ film growth rate was $12{\mu}m/h $ at the optimum conditions. Product film was characterized by XRD, FE-SEM and EDX.

  • The PECVD $SiN_x:H$ films were made from the $SiH_4-N_2$ gas mixtures under such deposition conditions as 0.01 to 1.0 of $SiH_4/N_2$ volume ratio, 0.1 to $0.8W/cm^2$ of RF power, and 100 to $400^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature. The deposition rate, refractive index, hydrogen concentration, N/Si composition, optical gap and electric conductivity were measured, and the thermal stability and the optimum deposition conditions were investigated for the application of these films to the solar cell materials.

  • This article reports on the conditions required for the growth of crystalline boron films on silicon substrates by hot filament chemical vapor deposition method. The reactive gas was 3% diborane diluted in hydrogen. The films were characterized by optical, electronic, and atomic force microscopies; x-ray diffraction; and energy dispersive, electron energy loss, Raman, x-ray photoelectron, and Auger spectroscopies. The parameters that affect the morphologies of the films have been investigated. It was concluded that faceted crystals are produced at low B2H6 flows and working pressures below 200 mT. α-boron is produced between 530 and 600℃. Deposition outside this range produces thin films with a wide variety of morphologies. This result indicates that the films crystallize through a process called "abnormal or discontinuous grain growth." It is assumed that this is due to the anisotropic surfaces of boron allotropes.

  • Diamond like carbon(DLC) thin films possesed not only marvelous material characteristics such as large thermal conductivity, high hardness and being chemically inert, but also possesed negative electron affinity (NEA) properties. The NEA is an extremely desirable property of the material used in microelestronics and vacuum microelestronics device. DLC films were fabricated by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Theeffect of the laser energy density and the substrate temperature on the properies of DLC films was investigated. The experiment was accomplished at temperatures in the range of room temperature to $600^{\circ}C$. The laser energy density was in the range of 6 $J/cm^2$ to 16 $J/cm^2$.

  • Possible role of hydrogen atoms on the formation of microcrystalline silicon films was schematically investigated using a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system. A layer-by-layer technique that can alternate deposition of ${\alpha}$-Si thin film and then exposure of H2 plasma was used for this end. The experimental process was extensively carried out under different hydrogen plasma times (t2) at a fixed number of 20 cycles in the deposition. structural properties, such as crystalline volume fractions and grain shapes were analyzed by using a Raman spectroscopy and a scanning electron microscopy. Electrical transports were characterized by the temperature dependence of the dark conductivity that gives rise to the calculation of activation energy (Ea). Optical absorption was measured using an ultra violet spectrophotometer, resulting in the optical energy gap (Eopt). Our experimental results indicate that both of the hydrogen etching and the structural relaxation effects on the film surface seem to be responsible for the growth mechanism of the crystallites in the ${\mu}$c-si films.

  • Buffer layers such as $CeO_2\;and\;Yb_2O_3$ films for YBCO coated conductors were deposited on (100) $SrTiO_3$ single crystals and (100) textured Ni substrates by a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system of the hot-wall type. The substrates were moved with the velocity of 40 cm/hr. Source flow rate, $Ar/O_2$ flow rate and deposition temperature were main processing variables. The degree of film epitaxy and surface morphology were investigated using XRD and SEM, respectively. On a STO substrate, the $CeO_2$ film was well grown epitaxially above the deposition temperature of $450^{\circ}C$. However, on a Ni substrate, the XRD showed NiO (111) and (200) peaks due to Ni oxidation as well as (111) and (200) film growth. For the films deposited with $O_2$ gas as oxygen source, it was found that the NiO film was formed at the interface between the buffer layer and the Ni substrate. The NiO layer interrupts the epitaxial growth of the buffer layer. It seems that the epitaxial growth of the buffer layer on Ni metal substrates using $O_2$ gas is difficult. We are considering a new method avoiding Ni oxidation with $H_2O$ vapor instead of $O_2$ gas.
