A fast tool servo (FTS) for diamond turning improves machining accuracy by quickly compensating relative position errors between the cutter and the workpiece. Therefore, the FTS needs to have large band-width with good tracking performance. Serious hysteresis nonlinearity of PZT actuators used in the FTS, however, deteriorates fast tracking performance. Several types of feedforward hysteresis compensators and feedback controllers are tested to improve tracking performance. Through simulations and experiments, control structure which yields the smallest tracking error is selected. The maximum peak to peak error in tracking a sinusoidal waveform is reduced by one fifth compared to that of a regular PID controller.

Both Facing Target Sputtering(FTS) and Cylindrical Post-Magnetron Sputtering(CPMS) systems have been degigned in order to form high density plasma and to obtain high deposition rate. However, these two systems have some different applications, and discharge characteristics of these two systems are not well known. In this paper, the discharge characteristics and plasma parameters of both FTS and CPMS systems are studied experimentally. It is found that these two system show some different discharge characteristics under magnetic fields. The plasma density and electron temperature of these two systems are in the range of $10^{10}{\sim}10^{11}[cm^{-3}]$ and $3.5{\sim}5.5[eV]$, respectively.

The Co-Cr-Ta films are one of the most suitable candidates for perpendicular magnetic recording media. The facing targets sputtering(FTS) system has a advantage of preparing films over a wide range of working gas pressure on plasma-free substrates. In this study, we investigated the effect underlayers on the growths layers of Co-Cr-Ta recording layers. The Co-Cr-Ta/Ti(CoCr) double layers were deposited with sputter gas pressure$(P_N, 0.3-1mTorr)$ by using FTS apparatus at temperature of$40^{\circ}C~-300^{\circ}C$, respectively. Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics were evaluated by x-ray diffractometry(XRD) and vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM), respectively.

In this study, the AZO thin films were prepared as a function of oxygen gas flow ratio at room temperature by FTS(Facing Targets Sputtering) apparatus using Zn:Al(metal)-Zn:Al(metal) or Zn(metal)-ZnO:Al(ceramic). The film thickness, crystalline and electric properties of AZO thin film was evaluated by $\alpha$-step, XRD and 4-point probe. In the results, the resistivity of AZO thin film was shown the lowest value about 8${\times}$10$^{-2}$ $\Omega$-cm(Zn:Al-Zn:Al), 3${\times}$10$^{-1}$ $\Omega$-cm(Zn-ZnO:Al) at the oxygen gas flow ratio 0.3. And the AZO thin film has good crystalline at oxygen gas flow ration 0.4, using Zn:Al-Zn:Al targets.

We prepared the Al doped ZnO (AZO) thin film on polyethersulfon (PES) without any substrate heating by Facing Targets Sputtering (FTS) system. FTS system has two different facing targets. One is ZnO doped the content of Al 2 wt% and the other is Zn in order to decrease resistivity. The electrical, structural and optical properties of AZO thin films were investigated. To evaluate the as-deposited thin film properties, we employed four-point probe (CMT-R100nw, Changmin), Surface profiler (Alpha-step, Tencor), UV/VIS spectrometer (HP), X-ray diffractometer (XRD, Rigaku) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM, Hitachi S-4700). As a result, We obtained that AZO thin film deposited on PES substrate at a DC Power of 150 W, working pressure of 1 mTorr and $O_2$ gas flow ratio of 0.2 exhibited the resistivity of $4.2{\times}10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}cm]$ and the optical transmittance of about 85 % in the visible range.

We investigated magnetic field, discharged voltage, and as-deposited film uniformity at facing targets sputtering (FTS) system with magnetic field type: i) concentrated and ii) distributed magnetic field type. And Al doped ZnO (AZO) films were prepared at two magnetic field type such as concentrated magnetic field type and distributed magnetic field type, respectively. Discharge voltage at the distribution type is lower than concentration type due to low magnetic flux (middle magnetic flux: Concentration 1200 G and Distribution 600 G). The films deposited at the distributed magnetic field were more uniform than concentration type. All of prepared AZO films had a resistivity of under $10^{-4}[{\Omega}{\cdot}cm]$ and a transmittance of more than 85 % in the visible range.

Piezoelectric ZnO thin films by Facing Targets Sputtering(FTS) method were deposited on slide glass. The Facing Targets Sputtering system can deposit thin film at plasma-free condition and change the deposition condition in wide range. The characteristics of ZnO thin films changed with power, working pressure and substrate temperature were investigated by XRD(x-ray diffractometer), alpha-step(Tencor) and SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy) analyses. In the results, we suggest that FTS system is very suitable for the preparation of high quality ZnO thin films with good c-axis orientation.

In this study, we prepared ITO thin film on the polycarbonate(PC) substrate by using Facing Targets sputtering (FTS) system. After the external bending force was applied to as-deposited ITO thin films with fixed face-plate distance (L), we investigated how properties of those change. As a result, the crack density of films was increasing as bending frequency increased. In accordance with crack distribution, we observed that the resistivity value of ITO thin film increased.

Indium tin oxide(ITO) films were prepared as a function of varying the proportion of oxygen$[0{\sim}1.0sccm]$ at fixed he gas[20sccm] by facing targets sputtering(FTS) system. Then electrical and optical properties of ITO thin films were estimated by Hall effect measurement system and UV/VIS-spectrometer. In the result, at very little oxygen rate, we can prepare a low resistivity ITO thin film of $3.40{\times}10^{-4}[\Omega{\cdot}cm]$ and transmittance of over 80%. So we noticed that the ITO thin film with low resistivity and high transmittance was prepared by FTS at room temperature.
