In order to compete with other flat display devices such as Liquid Crystal Displays (LCDs) and organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs), Plasma Display Panels (PDPs) require to have high performances like high image quality, low power consumption and high speed driving. In this paper, Fe doped MgO protective layer was introduced for higher performance. Both the surface characteristics of the deposited thin films and the electro-optical properties of 4 inch test panels were investigated. It has been demonstrated experimentally that ac PDP with Fe doped MgO protective layer has lower discharge voltage than that of undoped MgO film, which corresponds to measured secondary electron emission coefficients. The crystallinity and surface roughness of thin films were determined by XRD patterns and AFM images. In addition, ac PDP with Fe doped MgO protective layer has improved address discharge time lag for high speed driving.

Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT)는 높은 유전율로 인해 강유전체 메모리 소자의 응용을 위한 연구가 되고 있으며 또한 전왜(electrostrictive)성을 갖고 있어 이력현상을 갖지 않음으로 최근 들어 미세전기기계소자(MEMS)로의 연구가 활발히 되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 MEMS 소자로서의 응용을 위해 저응력 SiNx가 형성된 Si 기판위에 Pt 전극 혹은 산화물 전극 SrRuO3를 갖는 PMN-PT 박막 캐패시터를 제조하였다. 박막 하부의 구조는 금속전극의 경우 Pt/Ti/LTO/SiNx/Si이고 산화물전극은 SrRuO3/Ru/SiNx/Si의 구조를 갖는다. PMN-PT 박막은 alkoxide를 기반으로 회전 coating 방법을 사용하여 박막 하부층의 변화를 주어서 성장시켰다. PMN-PT 용액의 합성은 분말합성법에서 사용하는 columbite 방법을 응용하여 상대적으로 반응정도가 낮은 Mg를 Nb와 우선 반응하여 Mg-Nb solution을 얻고 Pb-acetate 용액과 합성하여 PMN을 제조한 후 PT를 반응시켜서 제조하였다. PMN-PT 박막에서 동일한 공정조건 하에서 박막 하부층의 구조에 따라서 PMN-PT 박막의 조성이 A2B2O6의 조성을 가지는 파이로클러어상이 형성되거나 또는 ABO3인 페로브스카이트상이 형성되는 것을 관찰하였다. 금속 전극인 Pt를 하부전극으로 사용한 경우는 혼재상이 형성되어 패로브스카이드 PMN-PT를 얻기 위해 seed layer로서 PbTiO3를 사용하였으며 이러한 seed layer 위에 형성된 PMN-PT를 형성하는 경우 rutile 구조인 RuO2 위에 성장시킨 PMN-PT는 파이로클로어와 페로브스카이트의 혼재상이 얻어졌으나 pseudo-perovskite 구조인 SrRuO3 박막 위에 형성된 PMN-PT 박막에서는 페로브스카이트가 주된 상으로 얻어졌다. 즉 하부층(전극 또는 seed layer)으로 perovskite 구조를 갖는 박막을 형성하게 되면 페로브스카이트를 갖는 PMN-PT 박막을 얻을 수 있었다. 전기적인 특성은 상부전극으로 Pt를 사용하여 HP 4194A로 측정을 하였다. PT seed layer를 포함한 PMN-PT 박막은 유전상수 1086과 유전손실 2.75%을 가졌다.

RuO2 thin films were deposited on SiO2(1000$\AA$)/Si and MgO(100) single crystal substrates at low tem-peratures by hot-wall metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD), and effects of deposition paramet-ers on the properties of the thin films were investigated. RuO2 single phase was obtained at lower de-position temperature of 25$0^{\circ}C$. RuO2 thin films deposited onto SiO2(1000$\AA$)/Si substrates showed a random orientation, and RuO2 films onto MgO(100) single crystals showed the (hk0) orientation. The crystallinity and resistivity of RuO2 thin films increased and decreased with increasing deposition temperature, respec-tively. The resistivity of RuO2 thin films decreased with decreasing the flow rate. The resistivity of the 2600$\AA$-thick RuO2 thin films deposited with O2 flow rate of 50 sccm at 35$0^{\circ}C$ was 52.7$\mu$$\Omega$-cm, and they could be applicable to bottom electrodes of high dielectric materals.

In this paper, We deposited the BST thin-film on p-type (100)Si, (100)MgO and MgO/Si substrates respectively using RF magnetron sputtering method. After the BST thin-fil m was deposited, we performed RTA(rapid thermal anneal) at $600^{\circ}C$, oxygen atmosphere and 1 min. In the XRD measurement, we observed the (110) $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ main peak in all samples and the peak intensity increased after post annealing. Then we manufactured a capacitor using Al Electrode and measured I-V, C-V. In C-V measurement result values for each substrate, dielectric constant was calculated 120 (bare Si), 305(MgO/Si), 310(MgO) respectively. A leakage current density was present less than 1 $\mu\textrm{A/cm}^2$ at applied fields below 0.3 MV/cm. In conclusion we confirmed that MgO/Si substrates give good results for BST thin-film deposition.

PZT films without lower electrode were deposited on the highly doped Si(100) substrate with MgO buffer layer (Mgo/si) by RF magnetron sputtering method followed by the rapid thermal annealing at $650^{\circ}C$ . We investigated the dependences of the crystalline and electrical properties on the MgO thickness and the RTA post annealing. The PZT films on bare Si (without MgO) showed pyrochlore crystal structure while those on MgO(50 )/Si substrates showed the typical perovskite crystal structures. From SEM and AES analysis, the thickness of PZT films was about 7000 showing relatively smooth interface. The depth profiles indicated that atomic species were distributed homogeneously in the PZT/MgO/Si substrate. The dielectric constant($\varepsilon_{r}$ ) and remanent polarization(2Pr) were about 300 and $14\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$;, respectively. The leakage current was about $3.2\mu$/A$\textrm{cm}^2$.

The electrical and mechanical properties of sputtered Cu(Mg) films are investigated for highly reliable interconnects. The roughness, adhesion, hardness and resistance to thermal stress of Cu(Mg) film annealed in vacuum at $400^{\circ}C$ for 30min were improved than those of pure Cu film. Moreover, the flat band voltage(V$_{F}$ ) shift in the Capacitance-Voltage(C-V) curve upon bias temperature stressing(BTS) was not observed and leakage currents of Cu(Mg) into $SiO_2$ were three times less than those of pure Cu. Because Mg was easy to react with oxide than Cu and Si after annealing, the Mg Oxide which formed at surface and interface served as a passivation layer as well.

We measured sputtering yield of RF $O_2-plasma$ treated MgO protective layer for AC-PDP(plasma display panel) using a Focused ion Beam System(FIB). A 10 kV acceleration voltage was applied. The sputtering yield of the untreated sample and the treated sample were 0.33 atoms/ion and 0.20 atoms/ion, respectively. The influence of the plasma-treatment of MgO thin film was characterized by XPS and AFM analysis. We observed that the binding energy of the O 1s spectra, the FWHM of O 1s spectra and the RMS(root-mean-square) of surface roughness decreased to 2.36 eV, 0.6167 eV and 0.32 nm, respectively.

The 5 mol% ZnO doped $LiNbO_3$ film and the 2 mol% MgO doped $LiNbO_3$ film were grown on the $LiNbO_3$ (001) substrate by liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) method with $Li_2CO_3-V_2O_5$ flux system. The crytsallinity and the lattice mismatch between $Zn:LiNbO_3$, film and $Mg:LiNbO_3$, film were analyzed by x-ray rocking curve (XRC). In addition, the ZnO and MgO distribution in the cross-section of the multilayer thin films was observed using electron probe micro analyzer (EPMA).

본 실험에서는 MgO (99.999%)와 ZnO (99.999%)의 두가지 타겟을 사용한 RF co-스퍼터링법을 이용하여 p-type Si (100) 기판 위에 $Zn_{1-x}Mg_xO$ 박막을 증착 하였다. ZnO 타겟의 RF-power은 고정시키고 MgO 타겟의 RF-power를 조절함으로써 Mg 함량을 조절하였다. EDX분석을 통해 MgO RF-power의 증가에 따라 고용되는 Mg의 함량이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 MgZnO내 Mg 함량이 높아짐에 따라 c-축 격자상수가 감소하는 것을 XRD분석을 통해 알 수 있었고, MgO기반의 2차상은 형성되지 않았다. PL 측정을 통해 Mg함량이 증가 할수록 UV 영역의 파장의 강도는 감소하고 UV 파장의 위치는 blueshift되는 것을 관찰 할 수 있었다.
