The magnetic and magneto-optical properties of Ni/Pt multilayers exhibiting square Kerr hysterisis loops at room temperature were studied. Squared polar Kerr hysterisis loops at room temperature in Ni/Pt multilayer thin films were obtained for the samples prepared by sequential dc magnetron sputter deposition of nickel and platinum with tNi=13-21$\AA$ and tPt=3.5-7.5$\AA$. The coercivity of these multilayers was in the range of 400-1100 Oe. The saturation magnetization was found to show an inverse dependence on nickel sublyaer thickness. About a monolayer of Ni at interface was observed to behave less magnetically than the interior Ni atoms. The polar Kerr rotation exhibited an increasing trend with decreasing wavelength in the spectral range of 7000-4000 $\AA$. The maximum of polar Kerr rotation was found to shift to higher wavelengths with increase in nickel sublayer thickness.

In this paper, the p-channel poly Si thin-film transistors (Poly-Si TFT's) using formed by solid phase crystallization (SPC) on glass substrate were fabricated. And we propose an ONO(Oxide-Nitride-Oxide) multilayer as the gate insulator for poly-Si TFT's to indicate non-volatile memory (NVM) effect. Poly-Si TFT is investigated by measuring the electrical properties of poly-Si films, such as I-V characteristics, on/off current ratio. NVM characteristics is showed by measuring the threshold voltage change of TFT through I-V characteristics.

일련의 Al/Tb-Fe-Co 다층박막 시편이 DC마그네트론 스퍼터링에 의해 제조되었다. 이 박막들은 (xA/yB)n의 형태이고 여기서 x와 y는 각각 Al 및 Tb-Fe-Co 박막의 두께를 나타내고 n은 각 박막의 수를 나타낸다. 각 박막의 두께는 2~40nm이다. Al과 Tb-Fe-Co박막의 두께변화에 따른 다층박막의 자기적 성질이 vibration sample magnetometry(VSM)에 의해 측정되었다. 이들 다층박막은 동일한 스퍼터링조건에서 제조되고 수평 자기적 이방성 특성을 보이고 있는 단층 Tb-Fe-Co박막을 기준시편으로 하여 자기적 성질이 비교되었다. 다층박막 시스템에서는 현저한 계면 또는 박막두께의 효과가 발견되었으며 이들 효과에 의해 단층박막의 수평자기체가 다층박막에서는 강한 수직자기체로 변화되는 것을 알 수 있고, 또한 Al과 Tb-Fe-Co합금 경계구역에 스퍼터링에 따른 약 2nm두께의 dead layer가 존재함이 입증 되었다.

We have investigated the effects of sputtering Ar gas pressure on magnetic anisotropy of Co/Pt multilayers, where sputtering Ar gas pressure was varied from 2 to 20 mTorr. The surface and volume anisotropies were found to be strongly dependent on sputtering Ar gas pressure. In particular, the surface anisotropy exhibited more than fourfold enhancement as Ar pressure was decreased from 20 to 5 mTorr. We have found that the surface anisotropy was closely correlated with the low-angle x-ray diffraction intensity. We believe that these results are mainly ascribed to the variation of microstructure in the Co/Pt multilayer thin films with sputtering Ar gas pressure.

The CIGS absorber has outstanding advantages in the absorption coefficient and conversation efficiency. The CIGS thin film solar cells have been researched for commercialization and increasing the conversion efficiency. CIG precursors were deposited on the Mo coated glass substrate by magnetron sputtering with multilayer structure, which is CuIn/CuGa/CuIn/CuGa. Then, the metallic precursors were selenized under high Se pressure by RTP method which included. Se vapor was supplied using Se cracker cell instead of toxic hydrogen selenide gas. Se beam flux was controlled by variable reservoir zone (R-zone) temperature during selenization process. Cracked Se source reacted with CIG precursors in a small quantity of Se because of small size molecules with high activation energy. The CIGS thin films were studied by FESEM, EDX, and XRD. The CIGS solar cell was also developed by layering of CdS and ZnO layers. And the conversion efficiency of the CIGS solar cell was characterization. It was reached at 6.99% without AR layer.

We studied magnetic properties of co thin films deposited on Pd (111) surface, which attracted much attention recently due to the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, using magnetic circular dichroism(MCD). Special attention was paid on the effect of Pd capping and interface roughness on the direction of magnetic easy axis, and for that purpose MCD signals for all Co thicknesses were measured with two different ways : in-plane and out-of-plane geometry. In case of bare Co films deposited on smooth Pd(111) surface, no MCD signal was observed under 4$\AA$ co thickness. At 4$\AA$ Co thickness, MCD signal at the out-of-plane geometry was observed, and for thicker Co films, only in-plane MCD signal was measured. This type of magnetic easy axis transition has been reported for other cases like Co/Pt system. The effect of 5$\AA$ Pd capping on these bare Co films made an remarkable change on the transition of magnetic easy axis. Out-of-plane MCD signals exists up to 20$\AA$ Co thickness, and disappears at 24$\AA$ Co thickness. In-plane MCD signals first appears at 10$\AA$ Co thickness and gradually increases up to 24$\AA$ Co thickness. Between 10$\AA$ and 20$\AA$ Co thickness, in-plane and out-of-plane MCD signal coexist. The formation of multi-domain structure or the existence of tilted magnetic easy axis is an possible scenario for such an interesting coexistence. The effect of interface roughness was also tested by measuring MCD signal on Co films deposited on un-annealed Pd(111) surface. Out-of-plane MCD signal was observed up to 8$\AA$ Co thickness and the anisotropy of MCD signal at 4$\AA$ Co thickness was very large with respect to that of Co film deposited on the smooth substrate. Above 8$\AA$ thickness, there exists only in-plane MCD signal. From above results, it was concluded that both Pd capping and interface roughness induce and reenforce the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. The large perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of Co/Pd multilayer system made by sputtering method can be well understood from our results.

Interest in the integrated capacitors, which make it possible to reduce the size of and to obtain improved electrical performance of an electronic system, is expanding. In this study, $Ta_2$O\ulcorner thin film capacitors for MCM integrated capacitors were fabricated on a Upilex-S polymer film by DC magnetron reactive sputtering and the effects of low temperature annealing at various atmospheres and substrate surface morphology on the capacitor characteristics were discussed. The low temperature($150^{\circ}C$) annealing produced improved capacitor yield irrespective of the annealing at mosphere. But the leakage current of the $O_2$-annealed film was larger than that of any other films. This is presumably mosphere. But the leakage current of the $O_2$-annealed film was larger than that of any other films. This is presumably due to the change of the $Ta_2$O\ulcorner film surface by oxygen, which was explained by conduction mechanism study. Leakage current and breakdown field strength of the capacitors fabricated on the Upilex-S film were 7.27$\times$10\ulcornerA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 1.0 MV/cm respectively. These capacitor characteristics were inferior to those of the capacitors fabricated on the Si substrate but enough to be used for decoupling capacitors in multilayer package. Roughness Analysis of each layer by AFM demonstrated that the properties of the capacitors fabricated on the polymer film were affected by the surface morphology of the substrate. This substrate effect could be classified into two factors. One is the surface morphology of the polymer film and the other is the surface morphology of the metal bottom electrode determined by the deposition process. Therefore, the control of the two factors is important to obtain improved electrical of capacitors deposited on a polymer film.

The growth of amorphous and first crystalline phase, and phase sequence by solid state reaction were examined in Co/Si multilayer thin films by DSC and XRD. The experimental results were compared with the results expected by effective driving force models, PDF and effective heat of formation models.Amorphous phase growth was not observed in Co/Si system and it was consistent with the predicted result by effective driving force. It was observed that the first crystalline phase is CoSi. According to the PDF and effective heat of formation models, the first crystalline phases were CoSi and $CO_2Si$, respectively. The experiemental results were coincident with the PDF model considering structure factors. In case of the atomic concentration ratios of 2Co : 1Si and 1Co : 2Si, the phases sequences were $CoSi\to Co_2Si$ and $CoSi \to Co_2Si \to CoSi \to CoSi_2$, respectively and it was analysized through the effective heat of formation model. The formations of CoSi, $CO_2Si$ and $COSi_2$ in initial stage were controlled by nucleation and the activation energies for the nucleation of three phases were 1.71, 2.34 and 2.79eV.
