The composition and semiconducting properties of the passive films formed on Ni- (15, 30)Cr-5Mo alloys in pH 8.5 buffer solution were examined. The depth concentration profile of passive films formed on Ni-(15, 30)Cr-5Mo in pH 8.5 buffer solution showed that Mo enhances the enrichment of Cr. The Mott-Schottky plot for the passive film on Ni-(15, 30)Cr- 5Mo closely resembled that for the film on Cr, whereas those for the less Cr-enriched film on Mo-free alloys showed similar behavior to that for the film on Ni. The acceptor density was reduced by increasing Cr content in Ni-(15, 30)Cr-(0, 5)Mo alloys, but addition of Mo considerably increased the acceptor density.

An oxidized surface layer was intentionally formed on a sputtered $MoS_2$ film by introducing oxygen gas in the final stage of sputtering process. The film showed longer life than the normal Ar-sputtered film when the surface layer was slightly oxidized. A XPS analysis revealed co-existence of $MoS_2$ and $MoO_3$ in the surface layer. suggesting that the existence of some amount of oxides in the surface layer had beneficial effect. A confusing result was obtained: the life was much shorter than normal Ar-sputtered film when the film was exposed to $O_2$ environment for 1 minute after normal Ar-sputtering, although almost no oxide was detected in XPS analysis.

In order to elucidate the effects of co-existing additives (S$_{8}$, TBP: Tri butyl phosphate, ZnDTP: Zinc-dialkyl dithiophosphate) and the role of reacted surface film on the friction behavior of MoDTP (molybdenum dialkyl dithiophosphate), a friction experiment using a dual circular pipe edge surface type friction tester and XPS (X-ray photoelectronic spectrum) surface analysis were conducted. Friction reduction with MoDTP lubricant was proved to be greatly influenced by co-existing additive species. It was dependent on the properties of the film formed through the reaction between the additive and the surface. Phosphate film reduced the friction coefficient of MoDTP through suppression of diffusion of Mo compounds towards the metal substrate. On the other hand, sulfate film, which is inherently rich in lattice defects, did not lead to any appreciable friction reduction with MoDTP since the diffusion of the Mo compound towards the metal substrate was not effectively suppressed. With ZnDTP additive, the sulfide film formed through decomposition greatly influenced the lubricating performance of MoDTP. As such, properties of surface films formed from additives were proved to yield significant influence on the lubrication performance of MoDTP.

In order to obtain a suitable back contacting electrode for $Cu(InGa)Se_2$-based photovoltaic devices, a molybdenum thin film was deposited using a chemical vapor transport (CVT) during the hydrogen reduction of $MoO_3$ powder. A $MoO_2$ thin film was successfully deposited on substrates by using the CVT of volatile $MoO_3(OH)_2$ at $550^{\circ}C$ for 60 min in a $H_2$ atmosphere. The Mo thin film was obtained by reduction of $MoO_2$ at $650^{\circ}C$ in a $H_2$ atmosphere. The Mo thin film on the substrate presented a low sheet resistance of approximately $1{\Omega}/sq$.

Phase evolution and tribological behavior of Cr-Mo-N multi compositional films with different interlayer were investigated. The films were deposited by hybrid PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) system consisted of dc unbalanced magnetron (UBM) sputtering and arc ion plating (AIP) sources. A pure molybdenum (Mo) was used as sputtering target and also a pure Cr was used as AIP target to form the Cr-Mo-N films. Various growth planes were found, no textured surface, in all of the multi composition films. Maximum value of microhardness was measured in Cr-Mo-N film with Mo interlayer as 29 GPa. Composition film was mainly showed the aspect of the adhesive wear than CrN film. The friction coefficient was decreased from 0.6 for pure CrN coating to 0.35 for Cr-Mo-N film with Mo interlayer. This result may come from the formation of metal oxide tribo-layer which is known as solid lubricant during the wear test.

Molybdenum is a low-resistivity transition metal that can be applied to silicon devices using Si-metal electrode structures and thin film solar cell electrodes. We investigate the deposition of metal Mo thin film by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PE-ALD). $Mo(CO)_6$ and $H_2$ plasma are used as precursor. $H_2$ plasma is induced between ALD cycles for reduction of $Mo(CO)_6$ and Mo film is deposited on Si substrate at $300^{\circ}C$. Through variation of PE-ALD conditions such as precursor pulse time, plasma pulse time and plasma power, we find that these conditions result in low resistivity. The resistivity is affected by Mo pulse time. We can find the reason through analyzing XPS data according to Mo pulse time. The thickness uniformity is affected by plasma power. The lowest resistivity is $176{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ at $Mo(CO)_6$ pulse time 3s. The thickness uniformity of metal Mo thin film deposited by PE-ALD shows a value of less than 3% below the plasma power of 200 W.

The advantage of OTFT technology is that large-area circuits can be manufactured on flexible substrates using a low-cost solution process such as inkjet printing. Compared to silicon-based inorganic semiconductor processes, the process temperature is lower and the process time is shorter, so it can be widely applied to fields that do not require high electron mobility. Materials that have utility as electrode materials include carbon that can be solution-processed, transparent carbon thin films, and metallic nanoparticles, etc. are being studied. Recently, a technology has been developed to facilitate charge injection by coating the surface of the Al electrode with solution-processable titanium oxide (TiOx), which can greatly improve the performance of OTFT. In order to commercialize OTFT technology, an appropriate method is to use a complementary circuit with excellent reliability and stability. For this, insulators and channel semiconductors using organic materials must have stability in the air. In this study, carbon-doped Mo (MoC) thin films were fabricated with different graphite target power densities via unbalanced magnetron sputtering (UBM). The influence of graphite target power density on the structural, surface area, physical, and electrical properties of MoC films was investigated. MoC thin films deposited by the unbalanced magnetron sputtering method exhibited a smooth and uniform surface. However, as the graphite target power density increased, the rms surface roughness of the MoC film increased, and the hardness and elastic modulus of the MoC thin film increased. Additionally, as the graphite target power density increased, the resistivity value of the MoC film increased. In the performance of an organic thin film transistor using a MoC gate electrode, the carrier mobility, threshold voltage, and drain current on/off ratio (I_on/I_off) showed 0.15 cm²/V·s, -5.6 V, and 7.5×10⁴, respectively.

Mo 박막의 두께가 1.2 ${\mu}m$와 0.6 ${\mu}m$인 AZO/i-ZnO/CdS/CIGS/Mo/SLG 구조로 이루어진 CIGS 박막 태양전지를 제조하였다. Mo 박막의 두께가 1.2 ${\mu}m$일 때 보다 0.6 ${\mu}m$일 때 CIGS 박막 태양전지의 변환 효율은 9.46%로 비교적 우수한 특성을 나타났다. CIGS 박막 태양전지에서 하부전극인 Mo 박막 특성은 유리기판 및 광흡수 층과의 계면 형성 따라 큰 영향을 미친다는 것을 알 수 있었고, 유리기판의 플라즈마 처리와 Mo 박막의 두께조절로 Na 효과 및 $MoSe_2$층 형성 제어함으로써 CIGS 박막 태양전지의 특성 개선에 효과를 가질 수 있었다.

Tribological properties of friction materials containing different volume ratios of solid lubricants (graphite and MoS$_2$) were studied using a pad-on-disk type friction tester. Morphology and thickness of the friction film were carefully examined to correlate the friction performance with the property of the friction film. Results showed that the friction materials containing 16vo1. % of graphite and 5 vol. % of MoS$_2$exhibited best friction stability among others. In particular, the thickness of the friction film decreased as the amount of MoS$_2$increased and severe friction oscillation was observed when the friction material contained MoS$_2$only (21 vol. %). Microscopic observations and friction tests suggested that the coherent thick transfer film improved the friction stability.

According to the bipolar model, ion selectivity of some species in the passive film is important factor to control the passivation. An increase of cation selectivity of outer layer of the passive film can stabilize the film and improves the corrosion resistance. Therefore, the formation and roles of ionic species in the passive film should be elucidated. In this work, two types of solution (hydrochloric or sulfuric acid) were used to test high N and Mo-bearing stainless steels. The objective of this work was to investigate the formation of oxyanions in the passive film and the roles of oxyanions in passivation of stainless steel. Nitrogen exists as atomic nitrogen, nitric oxide, nitro-oxyanions (${NO_x}^-$), and N-H species, not nitride in the passive film. Because of its high mobility, the enriched atomic nitrogen can act as a reservoir. The formation of N-H species buffers the film pH and facilitates the formation of oxyanions in the film. ${NO_x}^-$ species improve the cation selectivity of the film, increasing the oxide content and film density. ${NO_x}^-$ acts similar to a strong inhibitor both in the passive film and at active sites. This facilitates the formation of chromium oxide. Also, ${NO_x}^-$ can make more molybdate and nitric oxide by reacting with Mo. The role of Mo addition on the passivation characteristics of stainless steel may differ with the test environment. Mo exists as metallic molybdenum, molybdenum oxide, and molybdate and the latter facilitates the oxide formation. When nitrogen and molybdenum coexist in stainless steel, corrosion resistance in chloride solutions is drastically increased. This synergistic effect of N and Mo in a chloride solution is mainly due to the formation of nitro-oxyanions and molybdate ion. Oxyanions can be formed by a 'solid state reaction' in the passive film, resulting in the formation of more molybdate and nitric oxide. These oxyanions improve the cation selectivity of the outer layer and form more oxide and increase the amount of chromium oxide and the ratio of $Cr_2O_3/Cr(OH)_3$ and make the film stable and dense.
