The ITO thin films were prepared by FTS (Facing Targets Sputtering) system on polycarbonate(PC) substrate. The ITO thin films were deposited with a film thickness of 100nm at room temperature. As a function of sputtering conditions, electrical and optical properties of prepared ITO thin films were measured. The electrical and optical characteristics of the ITO thin films were evaluated by Hall Effect Measurement(EGK) and UV-VIS spectrometer(HP), respectively. From the results, the ITO thin film was deposited with a resistivity $8{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$ and transmittance over 80%.

이온빔 스퍼터링을 이용하여 Indium tin oxide (ITO)박막을 증착하였다. Ar 가스만을 이용하여 플라즈마를 형성한 경우와 $O_2$를 첨가한 경우에 대해 기판온도를 상온에서 $200^{\circ}C$까지 증가시키면서 온도의 영향을 관찰하였으며 이온빔 에너지의 변화가 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. Ar 이온만으로 증착한 ITO 박막은 domain 구조를 보였으며 Ar+$O_2$ 이온으로 증착한 경우 grain 구조를 나타내었다. Ar 이온만으로 증착된 ITO박막의 전기 비저항의 최소값은 $100^{\circ}C$ 기판온도에서 $1.5\times10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ 값을 보였으며 산소 첨가의 경우에는 $150^{\circ}C$에서 $4.3\times10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$이었다. 모든 박막이 $100^{\circ}C$이상의 기판 온도에서 가시광 영역에서의 투과도는 80%이상의 값을 보였다.

Sn-doped $In_2O_3$ (ITO) thin films were prepared by radio frequency magnetron sputtering without intentional substrate heating on bare glass and $TiO_2$-deposited glass substrates to investigate the effect of a $TiO_2$ buffer layer on the electrical and optical properties of ITO films. The thicknesses of $TiO_2$ and ITO films were kept constant at 5 and 100 nm, respectively. As-deposited ITO single layer films show an optical transmittance of 75.9%, while $ITO/TiO_2$ bi-layered films show a lower transmittance of 76.1%. However, as-deposited $ITO/TiO_2$ films show a lower resistivity ($9.87{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$) than that of ITO single layer films. In addition, the work function of the ITO film is affected by the $TiO_2$ buffer layer, with the $ITO/TiO_2$ films having a higher work-function (5.0 eV) than that of the ITO single layer films. The experimental results indicate that a 5-nm-thick $TiO_2$ buffer layer on the $ITO/TiO_2$ films results in better performance than conventional ITO single layer films.

GZO/ITO double layered films were deposited on unheated non-alkali glass substrates by RF magnetron sputtering using an ITO ($SnO_2$: 10 wt%) and GZO($Ga_2O_3$: 5.57 wt%) ceramic targets, respectively. The electrical resistivity of GZO/ITO films depends on the thickness ratio between the GZO film and ITO film. With increasing ITO film thickness, the resistivity of GZO/ITO films decreased which due to large increase in the Hall mobility. Also, the crystallinity of GZO/ITO film was improved with an increase in ITO thickness which was evaluated by X-ray diffraction. The average transmittance of the films was more than 85% in the visible region, which is slightly higher than ITO single layer films.

Indium Tin Oxide(ITO) thin film is transparent to visible ray and conductive in electricity. It is seen that the samples made by the sputtering process have high transmission rate to visible ray and high adhesion , but the planar type magnetron sputtering process with is very well known in industrial region have a defect of partial erosion on the surface of target and a high loss of target and also since the substrate is positioned in plasma, the damage on thin film surface is caused by the reaction with plasma. In cylindrical magnetron sputtering system. it is known that the loss of target is little , the damage of thin film is very little and the adhesion of thin film with substrate is strong. In this study, we have made ITO thin film in the cylindrical DC magnetron system with the variable of substrate temperature , magnetic field, vacuum condution and the applied voltage. The general temperature for formation on ITO is asked at 350 $^{\circ}C$~400$^{\circ}C$ but we have made ITO is low temperature(80-150$^{\circ}C$) By studing electrical and optical properties of ITO thin fims made by varing several condition, we have searched the optimal condition for formation in the best ITO in low temperature.

In this work, the ITO thin films were prepared by FTS (Facing Targets Sputtering) system under different sputtering conditions which were varying $O_2$ gas flow, input current at room temperature. As a function of sputtering conditions, electrical and optical properties of prepared ITO thin films were measured. The electrical, optical characteristics and surface roughness of prepared ITO thin films were measured. In the results, as increasing $O_2$ gas 0.1[sccm] to 0.7[sccm], resistivity of ITO thin film was increased with a decreasing carrier concentration, $O_2$ gas over 0.3[sccm] the carrier mobility have a similarly value. Transmittance of prepared ITO thin films were improved at increasing $O_2$ gas 0.1[sccm] to 0.7[sccm]. And transmittance of all of the prepared ITO thin films was over 80%. We could obtain resistivity $6.19{\times}10^{-4}[{\omega}{\cdot}cm]$, carrier mobility $22.9[cm^2/V{\cdot}sec]$, carrier concentration $4.41{\times}10^{20}[cm^{-3}]$ and transmittance over 80% of ITO thin film prepared at working pressure 1mTorr, input current 0.4A without any substrate heating.

We prepared ITO thin films using Facing Targets Sputtering(FTS) method with various input currents at room temperature on Polycarbonate(PC) and Polyethersulfon(PES) substrates. As a function of sputtering conditions, electrical and optical properties of prepared ITO thin films were measured. The electrical, optical, structural characteristics of ITO thin films were evaluated by Hall Effect Measurement(EGK), X-Ray Diffractormeter(Rigaku) and UV-VIS spectrometer(HP) respectively. From the results, we obtained ITO thin films that have a resistivity of $4{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$ on PC and $527{\times}10^{-4}[{\Omega}-cm]$ on PES. Also, the optical transmittances of all samples were over 80%.

Transparent conducting indium tin oxide (TC-ITO) thin films on polymeric substrates have been deposited by a dc reactive magnetron sputtering without heat treatments. The polymeric substrates are acryl (AC), poly carbornate (PC), and polyethlene terephthalate (PET) as well as soda lime glass is also used to compare with the polymeric substrates. Sputtering parameters are an important factor for high quality of TC-ITO thin films prepared on polymeric substrates. Furthermore, the material, electrical and optical properties of as-deposited ITO films are dominated by the ratio of oxygen partial pressure. As the experimental results, the surface roughness of ITO films becomes rough as the oxygen partial pressure increases. The electrical resistivity of as-deposited ITO films decreases initially, and then increases with the increase of oxygen partial pressure. The optical transmittance at visible wavelength for all polymeric substrates is above 82 %.

Compare to conventional Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) film deposition methods, cesium assisted sputtering method has been shown superior electrical, mechanical, and optical film properties. However, it is not easy to use cesium assisted sputtering method since ITO film properties are very sensitive to Cesium assisted equipment condition but their mechanism is not yet clearly defined physically or mathematically. Therefore, to optimize deposited ITO film characteristics, development of accurate and reliable process model is essential. For this, in this work, we developed ITO film deposition process model using neural networks and design of experiment (DOE). Developed model prediction results are compared with conventional statistical regression model and developed neural process model has been shown superior prediction results on modeling of ITO film thickness, sheet resistance, and transmittance characteristics.
