To research the characteristics of ITO film depending on a polarity of SiOC, specimens of ITO/SiOC/glass with metal-insulator-substrates (MIS) were prepared using a sputtering system. SiOC film with 17 sccm of oxygen flow rate became a non-polarity with low surface energy. The PL spectra of the ITO films deposited with various argon flow rates on SiOC film as non-polarity were found to lead to similar formations. However, the PL spectra of ITO deposited with various argon flow rates on SiOC with polarity were seen to have various features owing to the chemical reaction between ITO and the polar sites of SiOC. Most ITO/SiOC films non-linearly showed the Schottky contacts and current increased. But the ITO/SiOC film with a low current demonstrated an Ohmic contact.

A characterization procedure for analyzing symmetric coupled MIS(Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor) transmission line is used the same procedure as a general single layer symmetric coupled line with perfect dielectric substrate from the extraction of the characteristic impedance and propagation constant for even- and odd-mode. In this paper, an analysis for a new substrate shielding symmetric coupled MIS structure consisting of grounded crossbar at the interface between Si and SiO2 layer using the Finite- Difference Time-Domain(FDTD) method is presented. In order to reduce the substrate effects on the transmission line characteristics, a shielding structure consisting of grounded crossbar lines over time-domain signal has been examined. Symmetric coupled MIS transmission line parameters for even- and odd-mode are investigated as the functions of frequency, and the extracted distributed frequency- dependent transmission line parameters and corresponding equivalent circuit parameters as well as quality factor for the new MIS crossbar embedded structure are also presented. It is shown that the quality factor of the symmetric coupled transmission line can be improved without significant change in the characteristic impedance and effective dielectric constant.

Hydrogen gas sensors were fabricated after the form of metal/insulator/semiconductor(MIS) structure on a p-type silicon wafer and a insulating layer (silicon dioxide) thickness was changed from $500{\AA}$ to $5000{\AA}$. Their electrical properties were investigated with the variation of the hydrogen gas concentration at room temperature. At the applied forward bias of lV to both ends of Pd-MIS sensors the current was decreased logarithmically with the increase of hydrogen concentration in air. In the case of a thin $SiO_2$ layered ($500{\AA}$) sensor the current ratio was decreased to 25 % at 1 % of hydrogen concentration in air and 50% for a thick $SiO_2$ layered ($5000{\AA}$) sensor. And the response time of the thick insulating layered sensor to 1% hydrogen containing air was about 50 seconds and regeneration time was 2.5 minutes. When a 0.5mA current was appied to the thick insulating layered sensor the maximun voltage shift was calculated to 0.8V in the case of ${\theta}$ = 1 and the Pd surface coverage of hydrogen was increased logarithmically with hydrogen partial pressure.

We report on electrical and mechanical properties of silicon nitride ($SiN_x$) films deposited by a plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method at $200^{\circ}C$ from $SiH_4$ highly diluted in $N_2$. The films were also prepared from $SiH_4$ diluted in He for comparison. The $N_2$ dilution was also effective in improving adhesion of the $SiN_x$ films, fascilitating construction of thin film transistors (TFTs). Metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) and Metal-insulator-Metal (MIM) structures were used for capacitance-voltage (C-V) and current-voltage (I-V) measurements, respectively. The resistivity and breakdown field strength of the $SiN_x$ films from $N_2$-diluted $SiH_4$ were estimated to be $1{\times}10^{13}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, 7.4 MV/cm, respectively. The MIS device showed a hysteresis window and a flat band voltage shift of 3 V and 0.5 V, respectively. The TFTs fabricated by using these films showed a field-effect mobility of $0.16cm^2/Vs$, a threshold voltage of 3 V, a subthreshold slope of 1.2 V/dec, and an on/off ratio of > $10^6$.

본 논문은 RTP법으로 산화막을 질화시킨 질화산화막으로 MIS 커패시터를 제작하여 avalanche 주입에 따른 캐리어 트랩 특성을 조사하였다. avalanche 주입에 의한 flatband 전압 변화는 두 번의 turn-around가 관찰되었는데 이는 처음 산화막에서 전자 트래핑이 있어나고, 전하 주입에 따라 홀 트래핑에 의한 turn-around 후 다시 전자 트래핑이 일어나는 것을 관찰하였다. 질화 산화막의 캐리어 트랩 파라미터를 결정하기 위하여 실험 결과를 기초로 종류가 다른 여러 트랩을 갖는 계에 대한 캐리어 트래핑을 비교한 결과 실험값과 일치함을 확인하였다.

Epitaxial aluminum nitride films on 6H-SiC (0001) were fabricated using reactive RF magnetron sputtering and post-deposition rapid thermal annealing. The electrical properties of AIN films depending on film thickness and measurement temperature have been observed. Full width at half maximum of AIN (0002) was $0.1204^{\circ}$ (about 430 arcsec) X-ray rocking curve results. The equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of AIN film was estimated as about 10 nm and the leakage current density was within the order of $10^{-8} 4/cm^2$. The dielectric constant of AIN film estimated from the accumulation region of C-V curve measured at $300^{\circ}C$ was 8.3. The dynamic dielectric constant was obtained as 5.1 from J vs. 1/T plots at the temperature ranging from R.T. to $300^{\circ}C$ From above, estimation temperature dependance of the electrical properties of Al/AIN/SiC MIS devices was affirmed and useful data compilation for the reliabilities of SiC MIS is expected.

일반적으로 MIS(도체-부도체-반도체)의 다층 구조로 이루어진 대칭 결합선로에 대한 해석 절차는 모드(even and odd) 해석에 기초한 특성임피던스와 전파상수를 추출함으로서 단층의 결합선로 해석 절차와 동일하다. 본 논문에서는 손실매질의 다층구조로 이루어진 마이크로 스트립선로의 손실특성의 개선을 위한 새로운 구조를 제안한다. MIS 구조로 된 전송선로의 Si와 SiO2층 사이에 0전위를 가진 도체를 일정한 간격의 주기적인 배열로 고안된 새로운 모델의 MIS구조에 대한 유한차분법을 이용한 해석방법이 사용된다. 특히 전송선로에 대한 유전체의 영향을 줄이기 위하여 0전위를 가진 주기적인 결합의 도체로 이루어진 구조가 시간영역의 신호를 통해 시험된다. 다양한 손실률을 가진 불완전 유전체에 따른 주파수 의존적인 추출된 전송선로 파라미터와 등가회로 파라미터가 주파수 함수로서 나타내진다. 특히 본 논문에서 제안한 새로운 구조의 불완전 유전체에 대한 전송선로 파라미터가 주파수 함수로 구해진다.

$Y_2O_3$-based metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure on p-Si(100) has been studied. Films were prepared by UHV reactive ionized cluster beam deposition (r-ICBD) system. The base pressure of the system was about $1 \times 10^{-9}$ -9/ Torr and the process pressure $2 \times 10^{-5}$ Torr in oxygen ambience. Glancing X-ray diffraction(GXRD) and in-situ reflection high energy electron diffracton(RHEED) analyses were performed to investigate the crystallinity of the films. The results show phase change from amorphous state to crystalline one with increasingqr acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. It is also found that the phase transformation from $Y_2O_3$(111)//Si(100) to $Y_2O_3$(110)//Si(100) in growing directions takes place between $500^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. Especially as acceleration voltage is increased, preferentially oriented crystallinity was increased. Finally under the condition of above substrate temperature $700^{\circ}C$ and acceleration voltage 5kV, the $Y_2O_3$films are found to be grown epitaxially in direction of $Y_2O_3$(1l0)//Si(100) by observation of transmission electron microscope(TEM). Capacitance-voltage and current-voltage measurements were conducted to characterize Al/$Y_2O_3$/Si MIS structure with varying acceleration voltage and substrate temperature. Deposited $Y_2O_3$ films of thickness of nearly 300$\AA$ show that the breakdown field increases to 7~8MV /cm at the same conditon of epitaxial growing. These results also coincide with XPS spectra which indicate better stoichiometric characteristic in the condition of better crystalline one. After oxidation the breakdown field increases to 13MV /cm because the MIS structure contains interface silicon oxide of about 30$\AA$. In this case the dielectric constant of only $Y_2O_3$ layer is found to be $\in$15.6. These results have demonstrated the potential of using yttrium oxide for future VLSI/ULSI gate insulator applications.

The effects of sulfur treatments on the barrier heithts of Schottky contacts and the interface-state density of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) capacitors on InP have been investigated. Schottky contacts were formed by the evaporation of Al, Au, and Pt on n-InP substrate before and after (NH$_{4}$)$_{2}$S$_{x}$ treatments, respectively. The barrier height of InP Schottky contacts was measured by their current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C_V) characteristics. We observed that the barrier heights of Schottky contacks on bare InP were 0.35~0.45 eV nearly independent of the metal work function, which is known to be due to the surface Fermi level pinning. In the case of sulfur-treated Au/InP ar Pt/InP Schottky diodes, However, the barrier heights were not only increased above 0.7 eV but also highly dependent on the metal work function. We have also investigated effects of (NH$_{4}$)$_{2}$S$_{x}$ treatments on the distribution of interface states in Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$InP MIS diodes where Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$ was provided by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The typical value of interface-state density extracted feom 1 MHz C-V curve of sulfur-treated SiN$_{x}$/InP MIS diodes was found to be the order of 5${\times}10^{10}cm^{2}eV^{1}$. This value is much lower than that of MiS diodes made on bare InP surface. It is certain, therefore, that the (NH$_{4}$)$_{2}$S$_{x}$ treatment is a very powerful tool to enhance the barrier heights of Au/n-InP and Pt/n-InP Schottky contacts and to reduce the density of interface states in SiN$_{x}$/InP MIS diode.

CeO2는 cubic 구조의 일종인 CaR2 구조를 가지고 있으며 격자상수가 Si의 격장상수와 매우 비슷하여 Si 기판위에 에피텍셜하게 성장할 수 있는 가능성이 매우 크다. 따라서 SOI(silicon-on-insulator)구조의 실현을 위하여 Si 기판위에 CeO2 박막을 에피텍셜하게 성장시키려는 많은 노력이 있어왔다. 또한 metal-ferroelectric-semiconductor field effect transistor)에서 ferroelectric 박막과 Si 기판사이의 완충층으로 사용된다. 이러한 CeO2의 응용을 위해서는 Si 기판 위에 성장된 CeO2 박막의 방위성 및 CeO2/Si 구조의 전기적 특성을 알아보는 것이 매우 중요하다. 본 연구에서는 Si(100) 기판위에 CeO2(200)방향으로 성장하는 박막과 EcO2(111) 방향으로 성장하는 박막을 rf magnetron sputtering 방법으로 증착하여 각각의 구조적, 전기적 특성을 분석하였다. RCA 방법으로 세정한 P-type Si(100)기판위에 Ce target과 O2를 사용하여 CeO2(200) 및 CeO2(111)박막을 증착하였다. 증착후 RTA(rapid thermal annealing)방법으로 95$0^{\circ}C$, O2 분위기에서 5분간 열처리를 하였다 이렇게 제작된 CeO2 박막의 구조적 특성을 XRD(x-ray diffraction)방법으로 분석하였고, Al/CeO2/Si의 MIS(metal-insulator-semiconductor)구조를 제작하여 C-V (capacitance-voltage), I-V (current-voltage) 특성을 분석하였으며 TEM(transmission electron microscopy)으로 증착된 CeO2막과 Si 기판과의 계면 특성을 연구하였다. C-V특성에 있어서 CeO2(111)/Si은 CeO2(111)의 두께가 증가함에 따라 hysteresis windows가 증가한 방면 CeO2(200)/Si은 hysteresis windows가 아주 작을뿐만 아니라 CeO2(200)의 두께가 증가하더라도 hysteresis windos가 증가하지 않았다. CeO2(111)/Si과 CeO2(200)/Si의 C-V 특성의 차이는 CeO2(111)과 CeO2(200)이 Si 기판에 의해 받은 stress의 차이와 이에 따른 defect형성의 차이에 의한 것으로 사료된다.
