The transparent conductiong thin films of tin oxides were prepared on pyrex glass substrates by the pulse laser deposition. In the atmospheres of vacuum, O2, and $Sn(CH_3)_4$ a polycrystalline $SnO_2$ target was ablated by Nd-YAG laser beam to deposit thin films on the substrates at room temperature, and as-deposited films were subsequently heat-treated in the air for 2 h at 230, 420 and $610^{\circ}C$, respectively. The characteristics of the thin films were examined by UV-VIS-NIR spectrometry and X-ray diffractometry, and the electrical properties were measured by four-point probe method along with film thickness monitored by the stylus method. It was observed that in the presence of $Sn(CH_3)_4$, $SnO_2$ phases were grown even at room temperature. This suggests that the microplasma producted during the laser ablation plays an important role in the dissociaation of precursor molecules.

To fabricate superconducting multiplexers with narrow pass band characteristics and reduce the physical size of device, we have designed multiplexer using hair-pin type filters with the center frequency of 13.6 GHz. Multiplexers have been fabricated superconductor(HTS), because It has low surface resistance. The $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$(YBCO) films were deposited on MgO substrates$(20{\times}20{\times}0.5mm^3)$ by using pulsed laser deposition and conventional photo-lithographic methods were used to pattern the multiplexer. Epitaxial YBCO films were grown on(100) MgO substrates and showed strongly c_axis orientations observed by X-ray diffraction technique. Superconducting transition temperatures were measured to be about 89K. Simulated results of superconducting multiplexer consisting of hair-pin type filters show the insertion loss of about 1.2dB. The measured frequency response will be compared with the simulated results.

Pure ZnO, ZnO nanowires doped with 3 wt.% Ga (3GZO) and doped with 3 wt.% Ag (3SZO) were grown by a hot-walled pulse laser deposition (HW-PLD) technique. The optical and chemical properties of Ga and Ag doped nanowires was analyzed. Nanowires were determined to be under 200 nm in diameter and several μm in length. Change of significant resistance was observed and the gas detection sensitivities of ZnO, 3GZO and 3SZO nanawires were compared. The sensitivities of ZnO, 3GZO, and 3SZO nanowire sensors were measured at 300℃ for 1 ppm of ethanol gas at 97%, 48%, and 203%, respectively.

We design and demonstrate the controlled morphologies of Ag-dpped ZnO nanowires (NWs) adopting self-contrived hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD). p-type Ag-doping is ensuired by low temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectrum to find the AoX peak at 3.349 eV. Morphology of grown NWs are controlled by changing the kinetic energy and flux of the ablated particles with adjusting the target - substrate (T-S) distance. The analysis on the resultant NWs is presented.

$Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$ film magnets were prepared using a $Sm_2Fe_{17}$ target in a $N_2$ gas atmosphere using a Nd-YAG pulsed laser ablation technique. The effect of nitrogen pressure, deposition temperature, pulse time and film thickness on the structure and magnetic properties of $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$ film were studied. Increasing the nitrogen pressure up to 5 atm led to the formation of complete $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$ compound. Optimized magnetic properties with the nitrogenation temperature in the range 500-53$0^{\circ}C$ could be obtained by extending the nitrogenation time up to 4 hours. Relatively low coercivities of 400~600 Oe were found in $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$films 50~100 m thick, while a $4\piM_s$ of 10$\sim$12 kG could be achieved. In-plane anisotropy, which was the basic goal in this study, was achieved by controlling the nitrogenation parameters.

In this paper, the conductivity of the fine pattern is improved in the insulating substrate by laser-induced forward transfer (LIFT) process. The high laser beam energy generated in conventional laser induced deposition processes induces problems such as low deposition density and oxidation of micro-patterns. These problems were improved by using a polymer coating layer for improved deposition accuracy and conductivity. Chromium and copper were used to deposit micro-patterns on silicon wafers. A multi-pulse laser beam was irradiated on a metal thin film to form a seed layer on an insulating substrate(SiO2) and electroless plating was applied on the seed layer to form a micro-pattern and structure. Irradiating the laser beam with multiple scanning method revealed that the energy of the laser beam improved the deposition density and the surface quality of the deposition layer and that the electric conductivity can be used as the microelectrode pattern. Measuring the resistivity after depositing the microelectrode by using the laser direct drawing method and electroless plating indicated that the resistivity of the microelectrode pattern was $6.4{\Omega}$, the resistance after plating was $2.6{\Omega}$, and the surface texture of the microelectrode pattern was uniformly deposited. Because the surface texture was uniform and densely deposited, the electrical conductivity was improved about three fold.

Wave drag reduction due to the repetitive laser induced energy deposition over a flat-nosed cylinder is experimentally conducted in this study. Irradiated laser pulses are focused by a convex lens installed in side of the in-draft wind tunnel of Mach 1.94. The maximum frequency of the energy deposition is limited up to 80. Time-averaged drag force is measured using a low friction piston which was backed by a load cell in a cavity as a controlled pressure. Stagnation pressure history, which is measured at the nose of the model, is synchronized with corresponding sequential schlieren images. With cylinder model, amount of drag reduction is linearly increased with input laser power. The power gain only depends upon the pulse energy. A drag reduction about 21% which corresponds to power gain of energy deposition of approximately 10 was obtained.

Buffer layers play an important role in the development of high critical current density coated conductor. $LaMnO_3$, $SrTiO_3$ and $BaZrO_3$ buffer layers were compatible with MgO surfaces and also provide a good template for growing high current density REBCO(RE=Rare earth) films. Systematic studies on the influences of pulsed laser deposition parameters (deposition temperature, deposition pressure, processing gas, laser energy density, etc.) on microstructure and texture properties of $LaMnO_3$, $SrTiO_3$ and $BaZrO_3$ films as buffer layer deposited on ion-beam assisted deposition MgO (IBAD_MgO) template by pulse laser deposition method, were carried out. These results will be presented together with the discussion on the possible use of this material in HTS coated conductor as buffer.

Manufacture of OLED device used thermal evaporation method. However thermal evaporation method has many defect as thermal damage of substrate, difficult of dopant rate control and low utilization of organic materials. so we suggest PLD(Pulsed Laser Deposition) method that solution of these problems.

ZnTe semiconductor is very attractive materials for optoelectronic devices in the visible green spectral region because of it has direct bandgap of 2.26 eV. The prototypes of ZnTe light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been reported [1], showing that their green emission peak closely matches the most sensitive region of the human eye. Another application to photovoltaics proved that ZnTe is useful for the production of high-efficiency multi-junction solar cells [2,3]. By using the pulse laser deposition system, ZnTe thin films were deposited on ZnO thin layer, which is grown on (0001) Al2O3substrates. To produce the plasma plume from an ablated ZnO and ZnTe target, a pulsed (10 Hz) YGA:Nd laser with energy density of 95 mJ/$cm^2$ and wavelength of 266 nm by a nonlinear fourth harmonic generator was used. The laser spot focused on the surface of the ZnO and ZnTe target by using an optical lens was approximately 1 mm2. The base pressure of the chamber was kept at a pressure around $10^{-6}$ Torr by using a turbo molecular pump. The oxygen gas flow was controlled around 3 sccm by using a mass flow controller system. During the ZnTe deposition, the substrate temperature was $400^{\circ}C$ and the ambient gas pressure was $10^{-2}$ Torr. The structural properties of the samples were analyzed by XRD measurement. The optical properties were investigated by using the photoluminescence spectra obtained with a 325 nm wavelength He-Cd laser. The film surface and carrier concentration were analyzed by an atomic force microscope and Hall measurement system.
