The silicide formation mechanisms of Co/Hf and Co/Nb bilayer on (100) Si have been investigated. We ob-served that crystallographic orientationso f the 500$^{\circ}C$ formed cobalt silcides were different each other with the varying intermediate layers. Epitaxial and non-epitaxial CoSi2 formed simultaneously in Co/Hf/(100Si. While only non-epitaxial CoSi2 formed in Co/Nb/(100) Si. The reason why the crystallographic orientation of CpSi2 is different for those two systems seemed to be relate to the formation and decomposition of stable reaction barriers at high temperature. The stable reaction barrier formed at high temperature could control the uniform diffusion of Co atoms which enables epitaxial growth of CoSi2.

Epitaxial rutile-$TiO_2$ and anatase-$TiO_2$ films were grown at $800^{\circ}C$ on $Al_2O_3$ (1102) and $LaAlO_3$ (001), respectively, using pulsed laser deposition. The formation of different phases on different substrates could be qualitatively explained by the atomic arrangements at the interfaces. We also successfully deposited epitaxial rutile-$TiO_2$ and anatase-$TiO_2$ films on conductive $RuO_2$ and $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}$ electrodes, respectively. Using a Kelvin probe, we measured the photovoltaic properties of these multilayer structures. A rutile-$TiO_2$ film grown on $RuO_2$ showed a very broad peak in the visible light region. An epitaxial anatase-$TiO_2$ film grown on $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3}$ showed a strong peak with a threshold energy of 3.05 eV.

To improve the coercivity of ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles. We have made cobalt ferrite epitaxial ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles by crystallizing cobalt ferrite on the surface of ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles. The coercivity of $Co_{x}Fe_{3-x}O_{4}$ which is conform to coating layer showed the most superior characteristic when the value of x was 1. On the formation of cobalt epitaxial ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles, controlling reaction atmosphere as oxidation at. mosphere after non-oxidation atmosphere was the optimum condition to prepare cobalt epitaxial ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles with superior magnetic properties. Epitaxial growth of cobalt ferrite on the surface of ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ particles was accomplished at $90^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes.

The GaAs epitaxial layers were grown on Si(100) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy(MBE) using the two-step method. The Si(100) substrates were cleaned with different surface cleaning method of vacuum heating, As-beam, and Ga-beam at the substrate temperature of $800^{\circ}C$. Growth temperature and thickness of the GaAs epitaxial layer were $800^{\circ}C$ and 1 ${\mu}m$, respectively. The surface structure and epitaxial growth were observed by reflection high-energy electron diffraction(RHEED) and scanning electron microscope(SEM). Just surface structure of the Si(100) substrate cleaned by Ga-beam at $800^{\circ}C$ shows double domain ($2{\times}1$). RHEED patterns of the GaAs epitaxial layers grown on Si(100) substrates with cleaning method of vacuum heating, As-beam, and Ga-beam show spot-like, ($2{\times}4$) with spot, and clear ($2{\times}4$). From SEM, it is found that the GaAs epitaxial layers grown on Si(100) substrates with Ga-beam cleaning has a high quality.

In-situ cleaning and subsequent silicon epitaxial film growth were performed in a load-locked reactor equipped with Hg-grid UV lamp and PBN heater to obtain the smooth and contaminant-free underlying surface and develop low-temperature epitaxial film growth process. The removals of organic and native oxide were investigated using UV-excited $O_2$ and $NF_{3}/H_{2}$, and the effect of the surface condition was examined on the quality of silicon epitaxial film grown at temperature as low as $750^{\circ}C$. UV-excited gas phase cleaning was found to be effective in removing the organic and native oxide successfully providing a smooth surface with RMS roughness of 0.5$\AA$ at optimal condition. Crystalline quality of epitaxial film was determined by smoothness of cleaned surface and the presence of native oxide and impurity. Crystalline defects such as dislocation loops or voids due to the surface roughness were observed by XTEM.

Epitaxial rutile-TiO$_2$ and anatase-TiO$_2$ films were grown at 80$0^{\circ}C$ on $Al_2$O$_3$ (1102) and LaAlO$_3$ (001), respectively, using pulsed laser deposition. The formation of different phases on different substrates could be qualitatively explained by the atomic arrangements at the interfaces.

Epitaxial yttrium-stabilized HfO$_2$ thin films were deposited on p-type (100) Si substrates by pulsed laser deposition at a relatively lower substrate temperature of 550. Transmission electron microscopy observation revealed a fixed orientation relationship between the epitaxial film and Si; that is, (100)Si.(100)HfO$_2$ and [001]Si/[001]HfO$_2$. The film/Si interface is not atomically flat, suggesting possible interfacial reaction and diffusion, X-ray photoelectron spectrum analysis also revealed the interfacial reaction and diffusion evidenced by Hf silicate and Hf-Si bond formation at the interface. The epitaxial growth of the yttrium stabilized HfO$_2$ thin film on bare Si is via a direct growth mechanism without involoving the reaction between Hf atoms and SiO$_2$ layer. High-frequency capacitance-voltage measurement on an as-grown 40-A yttrium-stabilized HfO$_2$ epitaxial film yielded an dielectric constant of about 14 and equivalent oxide thickness to SiO$_2$ of 12 A. The leakage current density is 7.0${\times}$ 10e-2 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ at 1V gate bias voltage.

니켈 도금의 표면 조직과 두께에 따른 조직의 변화를 투과 전자 현미경을 사용하여 관찰하였다. epitaxial deposit층의 두께는 도금 용액 속에 들어있는 외부 물질에 따라 변화하게 되며, substrate의 결정 방향에 따라 또한 변화한다. (110)면 보다는 (100)면에 도금했을 때 epitaxial deposit 층의 두께가 더 큰 것을 알 수 있었다. non-epitaxial 층으로 변화되는 과정은 hillock의 생성과 계속되는 Twinning에 의해 이루어졌다.

A laser interferometry of very high spatial resolution was built to study the solid phase epitaxial regrowth of furnace-annealed silicon wafers. As boron concentration increases up to $1.0E20/cm^3$, regrowth rate increases, but pre-exponential term and activation energy are decreased.
