  • Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CuOx(Bi-2201) thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion bean sputtering method. 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mired with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. XRD and RHEED investigations revealed that a buffer layer is formed at the early stage of deposition (less than 10 unit cell), and then c-axis oriented Bi-2201 grows on top of it.

  • We proposed a novel method to evaluate the magnetic properties of the initial layer and the columnar structure separately for CoCr-based perpendicular recording media. We show that the thickness of the initial layer and the intrinsic magnetocrystalline anisotropy of columnar structure can be quantitatively evaluated using the plotted product of perpendicular anisotropy to magnetic film thickness versus magnetic film thickness ($K_{u{\bot}}^{ex{p.}}$ $\times$ d$_{mag.}$ vs. d$_{mag.}$ plot). Based on the analyses, it is found that: (1) compared with CoCrPtTa media, CoCrPtB media have relatively thin initial layer, and have fine grains with homogeneous columnar structure with c-plane crystallographic orientation; (2) CoCrPtB media can be grown epitaxially on Ru or CoCr/C intermediate layer, and as the result, the magnetic properties of the media within thin thickness region of d$_{mag.}$ $\leq$ 20 nm is significantly improved; (3) the key issue of material investigation for CoCr-based perpendicular recording media will be focused on how to fabricate c-plane-oriented columnar grains well isolated with nonmagnetic substance in epitaxial-growth media, while maintaining the thermal stability of the media.

  • Layer transfer process has emerged as a promising tool in the field of thin silicon solar cell technology. This process can use mono-crystalline silicon as a surface for the epitaxial growth of a thin layer of silicon. It requires some sort of surface conditioning of the substrate due to which the surface become suitable for homo-epitaxy and lift off after solar cell fabrication. The successful reuse of substrate has been reported. The use of the conditioned surface without any kind of epitaxial layer growth is also the issue to be addressed. This review paper basically describes the five most cost effective methods on which works are in progress. Several types of possible problems envisaged by different research groups are also incorporated here with necessary discussion. Work in Korea has already started in this area in collaboration IC Design and Fabrication Centre, Jadavpur University, India and that also has been mentioned.

  • 시스뎀 압력이 1.0 기압[대기압 공정]일 경우와 0.1 기압(감압 공정)일 경우에 대해, SiH2Cl2를 사용했을 때의 에퍼택셜층 및 폴리실리콘의 성장 현상과 HCI을 사용했을 때의 이것들의 에칭 현상을 조사하였다. 실험적으로 구한 성장 속도 및 에칭 속도에 대한 식들로부터 Sih2Cl2와 HCI을 혼합하여 사용할 경우에 대한 선화적 에퍼택시가 가능한 공정 조건이 예측되었다. 그 결과, 선택적 에퍼택셜 성장 영역이 감압 공정에서는 실험 범위내에서 존재하였지만 대기압 공정에서는 존재하지 않는 것으로 나타났다. 이 것은 대기압과 감압에서의 성장 속도 및 에칭 속도가 차이가 나기 때문에 기인하는 것이다.

  • This paper presents a new fabrication method of selective SiGe epitaxial growth at 650 $^{\circ}C$ on (100) silicon wafer with oxide patterns by reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition. The new method is characterized by a cyclic process, which is composed of two parts: initially, selective SiGe epitaxy layer is grown on exposed bare silicon during a short incubation time by SiH$_4$/GeH$_4$/HCl/H$_2$system and followed etching step is achieved to remove the SiGe nuclei on oxide by HCl/H$_2$system without source gas flow. As a result, we noted that the addition of HCl serves not only to reduce the growth rate on bare Si, but also to suppress the nucleation on SiO$_2$. In addition, we confirmed that the incubation period is regenerated after etching step, so it is possible to grow thick SiGe epitaxial layer sustaining the selectivity. The effect of the addition of HCl and dopants incorporation was investigated.

  • Monolayers of graphite can be grown by fine controlled surface graphitization on the surfaces of various metallic and semiconducting materials. Epitaxial graphene grown on polished silicon carbide crystal surfaces has drawn much attention due to well known vacuum annealing procedures from surface analysis methods, especially scanning tunneling microscopy(STM) and scanning tunneling spectroscopy(STS). In this study, we have grown single layer and few layer graphene on silicon terminated 6H-SiC(0001) crystals. The growth of graphene layers were observed by low energy electron diffraction(LEED) patterns. Scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy measurements were performed to illustrate the electronic structure which may display some clue on the influence of the underlying structure. Spatially resolved STS results acquired at the edges of epitaxial graphene show in detail the electron density of states, which is compared to theoretical calculations. STM measurements were also done on graphene films grown by chemical vapor deposition(CVD) and transferred onto a SiC(0001) crystal. These observations may provide a hint for the understanding of carrier scattering at the edges.

  • The phase sequence of codeposited Co-Si alloy and Co/si multilayer thin film was investigated by differential scanning calormetry(DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, The phase sequence in codeposition and codeposited amorphous Co-Si alloy thin film were CoSilongrightarrow Co2Si and those in Co/Si multilayer thin film were CoSilongrightarrowCo2Silongrightarrow and CoSilongrightarrowCo2Si longrightarrowCoSilongrightarrowCoSi2 with the atomic concentration ration of Co to Si layer being 2:1 and 1:2 respectively. The observed phase sequence was analyzed by the effectvie heat of formatin . The phase determining factor (PDF) considering structural facotr in addition to the effectvie heat of formation was used to explain the difference in the first crystalline phase between codeposition, codeposited amorphous Co-Si alloy thin film and Co/Si multilayer thin film. The crystallinity of Co-silicide deposited by multitarget bias cosputter deposition (MBCD) wasinvestigated as a funcion of deposition temperature and substrate bias voltage by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and epitaxial CoSi2 layer was grown at $200^{\circ}C$ . Parameters, Ear, $\alpha$(As), were calculate dto quantitatively explain the low temperature epitaxial grpwth of CoSi2 layer. The phase sequence and crystallinity had a stronger dependence on the substrate bias voltage than on the deposition temperature due to the collisional daxcade mixing, in-situ cleannin g, and increase in the number of nucleation sites by ion bombardment of growing surface.

  • 본 논문에서는 보호용 실리콘 산화층과 Al 층을 이용한 $Al_2O_3$ 예비층의 형성을 제안하였다. 실리콘 기판 위의 보호용 산화막 위에 알루미늄을 증착하고 이를 $800^{\circ}C$에서 열처리함으로써 에피텍시 $Al_2O_3$ 예비층 형성시킬 수 있었다. 그리고 형성된 $Al_2O_3$ 예비층위에 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ 층을 형성하였다. ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$막 성장시 공정의 초기 상태에서 발생하는 $N_2O$ 가스에 의한 Si 기판의 식각을 $Al_2O_3$ 예비층을 이용함으로써 방지할 수 있었다. $Al_2O_3$ 예비층이 초박막 ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$의 표면의 형태를 개선하는데 많은 효과가 있었다.

  • We have studied the oxidatio nrte of $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ epitaxial layer grown by MBE(molecular beam epitaxy). Oxidation were performed at 700.deg. C, 800.deg. C, 900.deg. C, and 1000.deg. C. After the oxidation, the results of AES(auger electron spectroscopy) showed that Ge was completely rejected out of the oxide and pile up at $SiO_{2}/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ interface. It is shown that the presence of Ge at the $SiO_{2}$/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ interface changes the dry oxidation rate. The dry oxidation rate was equal to that of pure Si regardless of Ge mole fraction at 700.deg. C and 800.deg.C, while it was decreased at both 900.deg. C and 1000.deg.C as the Ge mole fraction was increased. The ry oxidation rates were reduced for heavy Ge concentration, and large oxidation time. In the parabolic growth region of $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ oxidation, The parabolic rate constant are decreased due to the presence of Ge-rich layer. After the longer oxidation at the 1000.deg.C, AES showed that Ge peak distribution at the $SiO_{2}$/$Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ interface reduced by interdiffusion of silicon and germanium.
