Isotope dilution mass spectrometry (IDMS) was applied to the determination of Ni, Cr, Mo in low alloy steel reference materials. The Mo isotope ratio measurement was performed by dynamic reaction cell inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (DRC-ICP/MS) using ammonia as a reaction cell gas. In the case of Ni and Cr measurement, all data were obtained at medium resolution mode (m/${\Delta}m=3000$) of double focusing sector field high resolution inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (HR-ICP/MS). For the method validation of the technique was assessed using the certified reference materials such as NIST SRM 361, NIST SRM 362, NIST SRM 363, NIST SRM 364, NIST SRM 36b. This method was applied to the determination of Ni, Cr and Mo in low alloy steel sample (CCQM-P25) provided by NMIJ for international comparison study.

MgO thin films were reactively deposited using an internal inductively coupled plasma assisted sputtering method varying reactive gas ratio to get stoichiometric film composition, and bipolar dc substrate bias to suppress micro arcs. The minimum frequency required for arc suppression was about 10KHz depending on ICP power. Their crystallinity was analyzed using X-ray diffraction and surface morphology using AFM. The surface was very smooth with rms roughness less than 0.42nm. The preferred orientation of the films were changing from (200) to bulk-like characteristics as Ar: $O_2$ratio was controlled to 10 : 2. Optical emission spectroscopy revealed that there were two distinct discharge modes: a blue one and a green one, where enhanced emission from Ar and Mg were observed. This cannot simply be understood by metallic or oxide mode of reactive sputtering due to ICP coupled to magnetron discharge.

We have developed a numerical model for a remote ICP(inductively coupled plasma) system in 2D and 3D with gas distribution configurations and confirmed it by plasma diagnostics. The ICP source has a Cu tube antenna wound along a quartz tube driven by a variable frequency rf power source($1.9{\sim}3.2$ MHz) for fast tuning without resort to motor driven variable capacitors. We investigated what conditions should be met to make the plasma remotely localized within the quartz tube region without charged particles' diffusing down to a substrate which is 300 mm below the source, using the numerical model. OES(optical emission spectroscopy), Langmuir probe measurements, and thermocouple measurement were used to verify it. To maintain ion current density at the substrate less than 0.1 $mA/cm^2$, two requirements were found to be necessary; higher gas pressure than 100 mTorr and smaller rf power than 1 kW for Ar.

A concept in which laser-sustained plasmas (LSPs) are combined with inductively coupled plasmas (ICPs) is proposed. The concept is aiming at extensions of operative conditions of a CW laser thruster due to the fact that the ICP has some characteristics which are in contrast to those of LSPs. An estimation confirmed that the concept would effectively work. And a fundamental experiment was conducted. The results showed that the radio frequency magnetic field induced by a alternate current of 13.56 MHz coupled inductively with LSPs, resulting in the enlargement of the plasma region and the attainment of the enthalpy. It is expected that some improvements will enable to transfer the RF power to the work gas more effectively and to demonstrate the synergy effect between the LSPs and the ICPs.

본 실험은 고밀도 플라즈마원인 inductively coupled plasma(ICP)를 이용하여 실리카 도파로의 코아를 형성하고자 하였다. $CF_4/CHF_3$유량비, bias power 및 source power 등의 변화에 따른 산화막의 식각 특성 즉 식각 속도, 식각 단면 및 식각된 표면의 거칠기 등의 변화를 검토하였다. 또한 single Langmuir probe 및 optical emission spectroscopy(OES)를 이용하여, 식각 변수에 따른 ICP의 플라즈마 특성을 관찰하였다. 이상의 결과를 토대로, $SiO_2-P_2O_5$로 구성된 실리카 도파로의 코아(core)층을 형성하였고, 이때 최적화된 식각 조건 에서 식각 속도는 380nm/min이고, 마스크 층으로 사용된 Al(Si 1%)와 산화막과의 식각 선 택비는 30:1이상이였다. 형성된 실리카 도파로를 scanning electron microscopy(SEM)으로 관찰한 결과, 코아층의 식각 단면이 수직하고 패턴 선폭의 손실이 거의 없음을 확인하였다.

We studied on the dependency of parameters which those were used to design a ballast of ICP light source. These parameters were derived from Barkhausen criterion equation about the oscillating condition of ballast. Comparing with a change of turns, we can suggest that a change of l is suitable to control a $I_p$ of an ICP light source. According to the Z-l equation, we can find an optimum rating power of ICP light sources corresponding to l.

Nanocrystalline HfN coatings were prepared by reactively sputtering Hf metal target with N2 gas using a magnetron sputtering system operated in DC and ICP (inductively coupled plasma) condition with various powers. The effects of ICP power, ranging from 0 to 200 W, on the coating microstructure, corrosion and mechanical properties were systematically investigated with FE-SEM, AFM, potentiostat and nanoindentation. The results show that ICP power has a significant influence on coating microstructure and mechanical properties of HfN coatings. With the increasing of ICP power, coating microstructure evolves from the columnar structure of DC process to a highly dense one. Average grain size and nano hardness of HfN coatings were also investigated with increasing ICP powers.

In this study, optical diagnosis of plasma was performed for nitrogen doping in graphene using a horizontal inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. Graphene was prepared by mechanical exfoliation and the ICP system using nitrogen gas was ignited for plasma-induced and defect-suppressed nitrogen doping. In order to derive the optimum condition for the doping, plasma power, working pressure, and treatment time were changed. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was used as plasma diagnosis method. The Boltzmann plot method was adopted to estimate the electron excitation temperature using obtained OES spectra. Ar ion peaks were interpreted as a reference peak. As a result, the change in the concentration of nitrogen active species and electron excitation temperature depending on process parameters were confirmed. Doping characteristics of graphene were quantitatively evaluated by comparison of intensity ratio of graphite (G)-band to 2-D band, peak position, and shape of G-band in Raman profiles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also revealed the nitrogen doping in graphene.

Niobium nitride (NbN) films were deposited on AISI 304 stainless steels by inductively coupled plasma (ICP) assisted dc magnetron sputtering method at different ICP powers, and the effects of ICP power on the phase formation, mechanical and chemical properties of the films were investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were used to analyze the crystal structure and micro-knoop hardness was used to measure the hardness of the films. Also, 3-D mechanical profiler and a ball-on-disk wear tester were used to measure the thickness of the films and to estimate wear characteristics, respectively. The thickness of the films decreased but their hardness increased with increasing ICP power, and it was confirmed that only cubic ${\delta}$-NbN(200) remained at high ICP power. At lower ICP powers, a mixture of the hexagonal ${\delta}^{\prime}$-NbN and cubic ${\delta}$-NbN phases was obtained in the films and the hardness decreased. The corrosion potential value increased gradually with increasing ICP power, but the changes of ICP power did not significantly influence the overall corrosion resistance.

본 연구에서는 $SrBi_2Ta_2O_9$ (SBT)박막의 고속식각에 따른 잔류물질 및 식각 손상의 영향을 조사하였다. ICP-RIE (inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching) 의 ICP power와 CCP(capacitively coupled plasma) power를 변화시키면서 고속식각에 따른 박막의 손상과 열화를 XPS 분석과 Capacitance-Voltage (C-V) 측정을 통하여 알아보았다. ICP와 CCP의 power가 증가함에 따라 식각율이 증가하였고 ICP power가 700 W, CCP power가 200 W 일때 식각율은 900$\AA$/min이었다. 강유전체의 건식식각에 있어서 문제점이 플라즈마에 의한 강유전체 박막의 열화인데 반응가스 $Ar/C1_2/CHF_3$를 20/14/2의 비율로 사용하고 ICP와 CCP power를 각각 700w와 200w로 사용하였을 때 전혀 열화되지 않는 강유전체 박막의 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구 결과는 Metal-Ferroelectric-Semiconductor (MFS) 또는 Metal-Ferroelectric-Insulator-Semiconductor (MFIS) 구조를 가지는 단일 트랜지스터형 강유전체 메모리 소자를 만드는데 건식 식각이 응용될 수 있음을 보여준다
