Deposition of $TEOS-O_3$ oxide film as inter-metal dielectric layer shows the substrate dependency according to the substrate material and pattern density and pitch size. To minimize substrate and Pattern dependency, TEOS-base and $SiH_4-base$ Plasma oxide were predeposited as underlying material on the substrate. The substrate dependency of $TEOS-O_3$ oxide film was more significant on TEOS-base plasma oxide than on $SiH_4-base$ plasma oxide. The dependency of $TEOS-O_3$ oxide film was remarkably reduced, or nearly eliminated, by $N_2$plasma treatment on TEOS-base plasma oxide, which appears to be caused by the O-Si-N structure, observed on the the surface of TEOS-base plasma oxide.

For feasible study of opto-electrical application regarding to oxide semiconductor, we implemented the N doped ZnO growth using a atomic layer deposition technique. The p-type ZnO deposition, necessary for ZnO-based optoelectronics, has considered to be very difficulty due to sufficiently deep acceptor location and self-compensating process on doping. Various sources of N such as $N_2$, $NH_3$, NO, and $NO_2$ and deposition techniques have been used to fabricate p-type ZnO. Hall measurement showed that p-type ZnO was prepared in condition with low deposition temperature and dopant concentration. From the evaluation of photoluminescence spectroscopy, we could observe defect formation formed by N dopant. In this paper, we exhibited the electrical and optical properties of N-doped ZnO thin films grown by atomic layer deposition with $NH_3OH$ doping source.

$LaGaO_3$ thin film was prepared on Ni-Fe metal porous substrate by Pulsed Laser Deposition method. By the thermal reduction, the dense $NiO-{Fe_3}{O_4}$ substrate is changed to a porous Ni-Fe metal substrate. The volumetric shrinkage and porosity of the substrate are controlled by the reduction temperature. It was found that a thermal expansion property of the Ni-Fe porous metal substrate is almost the same with that of $LaGaO_3$ based oxide. $LaGaO_3$ based electrolyte films are prepared by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. The film composition is sensitively affected by the deposition temperature. The obtained film is amorphous state after deposition. After post annealing at 1073K in air, the single phase of $LaGaO_3$ perovskite was obtained. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of the film is almost the same with that of LSGM film, the obtained metal support LSGM film cell shows the high tolerance against a thermal shock and after 6 min startup from room temperature, the cell shows the almost theoretical open circuit potential.

The storage capacity of 3D-NAND flash memory has been enhanced by the multi-layer dielectrics. The deposition process has become more challenging due to the tight process margin and the demand for accurate process control. To reduce product costs and ensure successful processes, process diagnosis techniques incorporating artificial intelligence (AI) have been adopted in semiconductor manufacturing. Recently there is a growing interest in process diagnosis, and numerous studies have been conducted in this field. For higher model accuracy, various process and sensor data are required, such as optical emission spectroscopy (OES), quadrupole mass spectrometer (QMS), and equipment control state. Among them, OES is usually used for plasma diagnostic. However, OES data can be distorted by viewport contamination, leading to misunderstandings in plasma diagnosis. This issue is particularly emphasized in multi-dielectric deposition processes, such as oxide and nitride (ON) stack. Thus, it is crucial to understand the potential misunderstandings related to OES data distortion due to viewport contamination. This paper explores the potential for misunderstanding OES data due to data distortion in the ON stack process. It suggests the possibility of excessively evaluating process drift through comparisons with a QMS. This understanding can be utilized to develop diagnostic models and identify the effects of viewport contamination in ON stack processes.

The magnesium oxide (MgO) protective layer plays an important role in plasma display panels (PDPs). Our previous work demonstrated that the properties of MgO thin film could be improved, which were deposited by Ion-Beam-Assisted Deposition (IBAD). However arc discharge always occurs during the IBAD process. To avoid this problem, Oxygen-Neutral-Beam-Assisted Deposition (NBAD) is used to deposit MgO thin films in this paper. The energy of the oxygen neutral beam was used as the parameter to control the deposition. The experimental results showed that the oxygen neutral beam energy was effective in determining in structural and discharge characteristics. The lowest firing inception voltage, the highest brightness and the highest luminous efficiency were obtained when the MgO thin film was deposited with an oxygen neutral beam energy of 300eV. The surface morphology of MgO thin film was also analyzed using AFM (Atomic Force Microscopy) and SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy).
