The drive towards ultra-large-scale integrated circuits a continuous intermetal dielectric films for multi layer interconection. Optimum condition of remote plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition(RPECVD) was achieved by orthogonal array method. Chracteristics of SiO$_2$ films deposited by using remote PECVD with N$_2$O gas were investigated. Etching rate of SiO$_2$ films in P-echant was about 6[A/s] that was the same as the thermal oxide. The films a showed high breakdown voltage of 7(MV/cm) and a resistivity of Bx10$\^$13/[$\Omega$cm] at 7(MV/cm). The interface Trap density of SiO$_2$ has been shown excel lent properties of 5x10$\^$10/[/$\textrm{cm}^2$eV]. It was observed that the dielectric constant dropped to a value of 4. 29 for 150 [W] RF power.

We demonstrate the growth of a sheet-like ZnO membrane on ZnO nano rod layers. The growth process is composed of 3 steps of ZnO seed formation, ZnO nano rod growth and sheet-like ZnO membrane formation on those nano rods. To confirm the fundamental growth mechanism, the lattice structures of each step were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) measurement. Analysis of the relation between the texture coefficient and the surface shape of the ZnO membrane on the ZnO nano rods shows that the surface morphology of ZnO nano structures can be controlled using the temperature of the growing solution and the concentration of the chemical solution.

Zinc-oxide (ZnO), II-VI semiconductor with a wide and direct band gap (Eg: 3.2~3.4 eV), is one of the most potential candidates to substitute for ITO due to its excellent chemical, thermal stability, specific electrical and optoelectronic property. However, the electrical resistivity of un-doped ZnO is not low enough for the practical applications. Therefore, a number of doped ZnO films have been extensively studied for improving the electrical conductivities. In this study, Ti-doped ZnO films were successfully prepared by atomic layer deposition (ALD) techniques. ALD technique was adopted to careful control of Ti doping concentration in ZnO films and to show its feasible application for 3D nanostructured TCO layers. Here, the structural, optical and electrical properties of the Ti-doped ZnO depending on the Ti doping concentration were systematically presented. Also, we presented 3D nanostructured Ti-doped ZnO layer by combining ALD and nanotemplate processes.

ITO/Ni/ITO thin films were deposited on the PET by RF magnetron sputtering. Dependance of the process parameters such as deposition pressure, positions of Ni layer, on the transmittance, reflectance and sheet resistance of ITO/Ni/ITO film were investigated. When the Ni layer is placed at the center of ITO and deposition pressure is low, ITO/Ni/ITO films showed better optical and electrical properties. At these conditions, the transmittance, reflectance and sheet resistance of the ITO film were $90\%,\;0.38\%$ and $185\Omega/\Box$ respectively.

Characteristics of ZnO films grown on $Si-SiO_2$ substrates at temperatures of $200\sim400^{\circ}C$ by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition were investigated. The growth rates and mobilities of ZnO films were dependent on growth temperatures. The field-effect mobilities measured in thin-film transistor structure were $15cm^2/Vsec$.

Silicon oxynitride films were deposited using ammonia as a nitrogen source via PECVD (plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition) to study the physical properties of the films. Silane and nitrous oxide were used as silicon and oxygen sources, respectively. The composition of the silicon oxynitride films was well controlled by changing the ratios of the sources and confirmed by XPS. The silicon oxynitride films with high oxygen content showed bigger compressive stress and less refractive index, while the values of surface roughness were around 1 nm, irrespective of the variation of the source ratios.

We investigated the fabrication method of superhydrophobic nanocoating prepared by a simple spin-coating and the chemisorption of fatty acid. The resulting coating showed a tremendous water repellency (static water contact angle = $154^{\circ}$) and the water contact angle can be modulated by changing the number of deposition cycles of ZnO and the carbon length of Self-Assembled Monolayers (SAM). Varying the number of deposition cycles of ZnO controlled the surface roughness, and affected to the superhydrophobicity. This simple coating method can be universally applicable to any substrates including flexible surfaces, papers and cotton fabrics, which can effectively be used in various potential applications. We also observed the thermal and dynamic stabilities of SAM on ZnO nanoparticles. The superhydrophobicic surface maintained its superhydrophobic properties below $250^{\circ}C$ and under dynamic conditions.

ZnO transparent conducting oxide thin films have been prepared by Pyrosol deposition method and the effects of the different experimental variables on the electrical resistivity and optical transmittance of the prepared films have been investigated in details. The best film with a resistivity of about 8 X 10S0-2TΩcm and transmittance about 80% has been obtained at the substrate temperature of 4$25^{\circ}C$ by using HS12T+CHS13TOH(1:3) solvent and NS12T carrier gas after annealing at 20$0^{\circ}C$ for 40 minutes in vacuum. Furthermore, We have also found the effect of substrate temperature on crystallographic orientation and surface morphology. Annealing of the as-deposited film in vacuum leads to a substantial reduction in resistivity without affecting the optical transmittance and crystallographic orientation.

본 연구에서는 산화텅스텐($WO_3$) 분말을 이용하여 여러 금속 기판에 텅스텐 박막을 코팅하는 방법에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 본 연구에서 언급되는 W 코팅은 Lee 등이 보고한 W, Cu 산화물을 이용하여 W-Cu 복합분말을 제조하는 것으로부터 아이디어가 출발되었으며, 본 연구의 결과는 기존의 6불화 텅스텐 가스($WF_6$) 를 열 분해하여 증착시키는 화학증착법(CVD: chemical vapor deposition)과 순수 텅스텐 target을 sputtering하여 증착시키는 물리증착법(PVD: physical vapor deposition)과 달리, 산화텅스텐 분말, 금속 기판, 및 수소 가스만을 사용하기 때문에 경제적으로 큰 장점이 있는 새로운 코팅법의 하나로 연구되었다. 본 연구에서는 새로운 코팅법의 기구와 여러 금속에서 코팅되는 W의 코팅 현상 등에 대해 간단히 언급하고자 하였다.

본 연구는 ZnO-TFT 소자에 Hf의 첨가에 따른 소자 특성 및 게이트 바이어스 스트레스에 대한 특성에 대해 분석을 하였다. Hf-Zn-O 박막은 Hf의 조성이 증가함에 따라 작아지는 grain size로 인해 TFT 소자의 전계효과 이동도와 게이트 바이어스 스트레스에서의 문턱전압의 변화가 더 커지는 것을 확인하였다. 한편, Hf이 14at% 함유된 HZO-TFT에서는 이동도는 현저히 저하되었지만, 게이트 바이어스 스트레스에서의 문턱전압의 변화가 현저히 개선되는 것을 확인하였는데, 이는 Hf의 조성이 증가함에 따라 비정질화 되어 grain boundaries에 의한 trap의 영향이 줄어든 결과를 확인하였다. 또한, 전계효과 이동도와 소자의 안정성을 확보하기 위해, poly-ZnO와 amorphous-HZO로 구성된 다중층 채널 구조를 이용한 TFT소자에서는 전계효과 이동도과 소자의 안정성이 개선된 결과를 보였다. 이는 채널과 게이트 산화물의 interface charge trap의 감소와 back-channel effect가 감소한 결과임을 확인하였다.
