The effects of the type and thickness of underlayer on the crystallographic texture and the sheet resistance of aluminum thin film were studied. Ti and Ti/TiN were examined as the underlayer of aluminum. Ti and TiN were prepared by ionized physical vapor deposition (I-PVD) metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), respectively. The texture and the sheet resistance of metal thin film stacks were investigated at various thicknesses of Ti or TiN, and the sheet resistance was measured after annealing at $400^{\circ}C$ in an nitrogen ambient. For I-PVD Ti underlayer, the excellent texture of aluminum <111> was obtained even at top of 5 nm of Ti. However, the sheet resistance of the metal stack was greatly increased after annealing due to the interdiffusion and reaction of Al and Ti. MOCVD TiN between Ti and Al could suppress the Al-Ti reaction without severe degradation of aluminum <111> texture. Excellent texture of aluminum was obtained for the MOCVD TiN thinner than 4 nm.

MOCVD method is one of promising techniques which can fabricate YBCO coated conductors in a low Price A continuous reel-to-reel MOCVD device using a dispersed solid source was designed and manufactured. YBCO films were deposited on various substrates of metallic silver, (100) MgO and SrTiO3 single crystals. The chemical composition of the metal organic sources was changed to optimize the processing condition associate to the deposition of the stoichiometric Y3a2Cu3O7-y. We report the superconducting transition temperature, surface morphology and chemical composition of the YBCO film surfaces.

Polycrystalline germanium (Ge) thin films were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using tetra-allyl germanium [$Ge(allyl)_4$], and germane ($GeH_4$) as precursors. Ge thin films were grown on a $TiN(50nm)/SiO_2/Si$ substrate by varying the growth conditions of the reactive gas ($H_2$), temperature ($300-700^{\circ}C$) and pressure (1-760Torr). $H_2$ gas helps to remove carbon from Ge film for a $Ge(allyl)_4$ precursor but not for a $GeH_4$ precursor. $Ge(allyl)_4$ exhibits island growth (VW mode) characteristics under conditions of 760Torr at $400-700^{\circ}C$, whereas $GeH_4$ shows a layer growth pattern (FM mode) under conditions of 5Torr at $400-700^{\circ}C$. The activation energies of the two precursors under optimized deposition conditions were 13.4 KJ/mol and 31.0 KJ/mol, respectively.

We report on the deposition of ZnO films using a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) as a function of pushing pressure and kind of reactant such as oxygen gas and water A diethylzinc (DEZ) is supplied and controlled by Ar pushing pressure through bubbling system. Oxygen gas and water are used as reactant in order to form oxidation. We knew that the surface roughness is related in the process conditions such as reactant kind and DEZ flow rate. A substrate temperature has little role of surface roughness with $O_2$ reactant. However, $H_2O$ reactant makes it to increase over the 20 times. We could get the maximum roughness of 39.16 nm at the 90 sccm of DEZ Ar flow rate, the 8 Pa of $H_2O$ vapor pressure, and the $140^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature. In this paper, we investigated the ZnO films for the application to the light absorption layer of solar cell layer.

NiO buffer layers were deposited on texture Ni tapes fur YBCO coated conductors by MOCVD(metal organic chemical vapor deposition) method, using a single solution source. Variables were deposition temperature and flow rate of $0_2$carrier gas. At higher temperatures, The NiO(111) texture was well developed, but the NiO(200) texture was developed at low temperatures. The best result was obtained at the deposition temperature of$ 470^{\circ}C$ and the gas flow rate of 200 sccm. FWHM value of $\omega$-scan fur NiO(200) of the film and $\Phi$-scan for NiO(111) of the film was $4.2^{\circ}$ and $7^{\circ}$, respectively.

We have grown GaN layers with in-situ SiN mask by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and study the physical properties of the GaN layer. We have also investigate the effect of the SiN mask on its optical property. By inserting a SiN mask, (102) the full width at half maximum (FWHM) decreased from 480 arcsec to 409 arcsec and threading dislocation (TD) density decreased from $3.21\times10^9\;cm^{-2}\;to\;9.7\times10^8\;cm^{-2}$. The PL intensity of GaN with SiN mask improved 2 times to that without SiN mask. We have thus shown that the SiN mask improved significantly the physical and optical properties of the GaN layer.

We have evaluated a 1.3 ${\mu}m$ vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), whose bottom mirror and central active layer were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and whose top mirror was covered with a dielectric coating, for 10 Gb/s data transmission over single-mode fibers (SMFs). Successful demonstration of error-free transmission of the directly modulated VCSEL signals at data rate of 10 Gb/s over a 10 km-long SMF was achieved for operating temperatures from $20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ up to bit-error-rate (BER) of $10^{-12}$. The DC bias current and modulation currents are only 7 mA and 6 mA, respectively. The results indicate that the VCSEL is a good low-power consuming optical signal source for 10 GBASE Ethernet applications under controlled environments.

RuO2 thin films were deposited on SiO2(1000 $\AA$)/Si by hot-wall Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Depositon. The crystallinity of RuO2 thin films increased with increasing deposition temperature and the preferred orienta-tion of RuO2 films converted (200) plane to (101) plane with increasing film thicknesses. Such a change in preferred orientation was influenced on the crystallographic structure and the residual stress of RuO2 thin films. The resistivity of the 2700$\AA$-thick RuO2 thin films deposted at 30$0^{\circ}C$ was 52.7$\mu$$\Omega$-cm and they could be applicable to bottom electrodes of high dielectric materials. However the resistivity of RuO2 thin films increased with decreasing film thicknesses. The grain size and the resistivity of RuO2 thin films were densified with increasing the annealing temperature and showed the decrease of resistivity.

strontium titanate (SrTiO3) thin films deposited on Pt/MgO were prepared by Plasma Enhanced Metal Orgainc Chemical vapor Deposition (Pe-MOCVD). The crystallinity of SrTiO3 thin films increased with increasing depo-sition temperature and SrF2 second phase disappeared at 55$0^{\circ}C$ The films showed a dielectric constant of 177 and a dissipation factor of 0.0195 at 100 kHz. The variation of capacitance of the films with applied voltage was small showing paraelectric properties. The charge storage density and leakage current density were 40fC/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$2 and 3.49$\times$10-7 A/cm2 at 0.25 MV/cm, respectively.
