The effect of the superconducting film thickness on the surface resistance has been investigated. Superconducting YBCO thin films have been grown on MgO substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The dependence of the orientation of YBCO film on thickness has been investigated by X-ray diffraction technique. X-ray diffraction indicated that the film orientation was changed by increasing the film thickness and by changing the substrate temperature. The microwave properties of the films with mixed orientations of a-axis and c-axis will be reported for the applications of microwave devices.

Sn-doped $In_{2}O_{3}$ (ITO) thin film is one of the materials widely on research not only in the academic fields but also in industrial fields because of their transparency, high conductivity and good adhesion characteristics on substrate. ITO thin films are usually preferred oriented to one of the (222), (400), and (440) planes during crystallization process, which is dependent on processing variables. The preferred orientation affects electrical, optical and etching properties of the films. In this study, thin films of preferred oriented in different orientation were fabricated by controlling processing variables. The crystallization behavior, grain size, surface roughness, transparency and electrical properties of the thin films in different orientation were examined.

Reactive radio frequency (RF)magnetron sputter has been used to deposit AlN thin film on a Si substrate. (002)Preferred orientation of AlN thin film has been obtained at low sputtering pressure and high $\textrm{N}_2$ concentration. Also it has been shown that properties of AlN thin film are affected by presputtering time. As presputtering time increased aluminum and nitride concentration of AlN thin film decreased. But oxygen concentration and grain size increased. The good preferred orientation was shown with the short presputtering time.

This study presents that various grain boundary junctions are prepared by controlling the seed orientation combined with an artificial hole in a melt process REBCO bulk superconductor. Large grain YBCO superconductors have been fabricated with various grain boundary junctions that the angle between the grain boundary and the <001> axis of Y123 crystal is $0^{\circ}$, $30^{\circ}$ and $45^{\circ}$, respectively. The presence of the artificial hole is beneficial for the formation of clean grain boundary junction and single peak trapped magnetic field profiles have been obtained. Artificial hole makes two growth fronts meet at a point on a periphery of the artificial hole. The presence of artificial hole is not likely to affect on the distribution of Y211 particles. The newly formed <110> facet lines are explained by the formation of new Y123/liquid interface with (010) crystallographic plane.

The microstructural changes of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu alloy containing Sc during hot extrusion and post heat treatment is investigated. Two kinds of Al-Sc alloys with different alloying elements (B1, B2) are hot extruded to make I-shape bars at 380$^{\circ}C$, then the bars are solution treated at 480$^{\circ}C$ for 2hrs followed by artificial aging at 120$^{\circ}C$ for 24hrs. The interior microstructure of as extruded bar consists of elongated grains, however, fine equiaxed grains are mainly observed around surface. The microstructural gradient suggests that different restoration process can proceed during the hot extrusion. For B1 and B2, different grain growth behaviors are found around the surface during the post heat treatment. Rapid grain growth behavior around the surface is discussed related with the crystallographic orientation of the grain.

This study presents that the orientation and the geometry of seed affect on the growth behavior of melt processed single grain REBCO bulk superconductor and its magnetic properties. The effects of seed geometry have been investigated for thin $30mm{\times}30mm$ rectangular powder compacts. Single grain REBCO bulk superconductors have been grown successfully by a top seed melt growth method for 8-mm thick vertical thin REBCO slab. Asymmetric structures have been developed at the front surface and at the rear surface of the specimen. Higher magnetic properties have been obtained for the specimen that c-axis is normal to the specimen surface. The relationships between microstructure, grain growth and magnetic properties have been discussed.

The a-axis and c-axis prefer oriented SBT thin films could be deposited on Pt(111)/Ti/$SiO_2$$650^{\circ}C$). The c-axis preferred orientation of SBT film can be obtained by Sr deficiency and high compressive stress. However, the a-axis-oriented grains can be formed under stoichiometric Sr content and nearly stress-free state.

AlN thin films were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering method. This study showed the change of the preferential orientation of AlN thin films deposition with the change of the deposition conditions such as sputtering pressure and Ar/N2 gas ratio in chamber. It was identified by X-ray diffraction patterns that AlN thin film deposited at low sputtering pressure has a (002) orientation, however its preferred orientation was changed from the (002) to the (100) orientation with increasing sputtering pressure. Also, it was observed that the properties of AlN thin films such as thickness, grain size and surface roughness were largely dependent on Ar/$N_2$ gas ratio and a high quality thin film could be prepared at lower nitrogen concentration. AlN thin films were investigated relationship between preferential orientation and deposition condition by using XRD, FE-SEM and PFM.

Bismuth layered structure ferroelectric thin films, $Bi_4$$Ti_3$$O_{12}$ / (BTO) and Nb-doped BTO (BTN) were prepared on the Pt(111)/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100) substrates by a sol-gel route. We investigated the Nb-doping effect on the grain orientation and ferroelectric properties. $Nb^{5＋}$ ion substitution for $Ti^{4＋}$ ion in perovskite layers of BTO decreased the degree of c-axis orientation and increased the remanent polarization (2Pr). The fatigue resistance of Nb-doped BTO thin film was shown to be superior to that of BTO, and the leakage current of Nb-doped BTO thin film was decreased about 1 order of magnitude compared with BTO. The improvement of ferroelectric properties with $Nb^{5＋}$ doping in BTO could be attributed to the changes in space charge densities and grain orientation in the thin film.

Bismuth layered structure ferroelectric thin films, La-substituted $Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ ($Bi_{1-x}La_{x}Ti_{3}O_{12}$, x=0.75, BLT) were prepared on the $Pt(111)/Ti/SiO_2/Si(100)$ substrates by a sol-gel spin coating process. The thin films were annealed in various conditions, i.e., oxygen, nitrogen and vacuum atmospheres for various annealing time. We investigated the annealing condition effects on the grain orientation and ferroelectric properties. The measured XRD patterns revealed that the BLT thin films showed only $Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$-type phase with random orientation. $La^{3+}$ ion substitution for $Bi^{3+}$ ion in perovskite layers of $Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ decreased the degree of c-axis orientation and increased the remanent polarization ($2P_{r}$). The remanent polarization ($2P_{r}$) and the coercive field ($2E_{c}$) of the BLT thin film annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ for 5 min in oxygen atmosphere were $87{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 182 kV/cm, respectively, at an applied electric field of 240 kV/cm. For all of the BLT thin films annealed in various conditions, the fatigue resistance was shown. The improvement of ferroelectric properties with La substitution in $Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ could be attributed to the changes in space charge densities and grain orientation in the thin film.
