Device quality indium tin oxide (ITO) films are deposited on glass substrates and ultra-thin diamond-like carbon films are deposited as a buffer layer on ITO by a pulsed Nd:YAG laser at 355 nm and 532 nm wavelength. ITO films deposited at room temperature are largely amorphous although their optical transmittances in the visible range are > 90%. The resistivity of their amorphous ITO films is too high to enable an efficient organic light-emitting device (OLED), in contrast to that deposited by a KrF laser. Substrate heating at $200^{\circ}C$ with laser wavelength of 355 nm, the ITO film resistivity decreases by almost an order of magnitude to $2{\times}10^{-4}\;{\Omega}\;cm$ while its optical transmittance is maintained at > 90%. The thermally induced crystallization of ITO has a preferred <111> directional orientation texture which largely accounts for the lowering of film resistivity. The background gas and deposition distance, that between the ITO target and the glass substrate, influence the thin-film microstructures. The optical and electrical properties are compared to published results using other nanosecond lasers and other fluence, as well as the use of ultra fast lasers. Molecularly doped, single-layer OLEDs of ITO/(PVK+TPD+$Alq_3$)/Al which are fabricated using pulsed-laser deposited ITO samples are compared to those fabricated using the commercial ITO. Effects such as surface texture and roughness of ITO and the insertion of DLC as a buffer layer into ITO/DLC/(PVK+TPD+$Alq_3$)/Al devices are investigated. The effects of DLC-on-ITO on OLED improvement such as better turn-on voltage and brightness are explained by a possible reduction of energy barrier to the hole injection from ITO into the light-emitting layer.

Many studies have used chemical vapor deposition (CVD) to grow graphene. However, CVD is inefficient in terms of production costs, and inefficient for mass production because a transfer process using a catalytic metal is needed. In this study, graphene thin films were grown on single crystal sapphire substrates without a catalytic metal, using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to resolve these problems. In addition, the growth of graphene using PLD was confirmed to have a close relationship with the substrate temperature.

ZnO thin films were deposited on (001) sapphire substrate at various ambient gas pressure by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). Oxygen was used as ambient gas, and oxygen gas pressure was varied from 1.0${\times}$10$\^$-6/ Torr to 500 mTorr during the film deposition. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region below critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region increase. As oxygen gas pressure increase in the region above critical pressure photoluminescence(PL) intensity in UV and green region decrease. Each of critical ambient gas Pressures was 350 mTorr for UV emission and 200 mTorr for green emission.

Dielectric thin films of PLT(Pb(La.Ti)O3) for the application of highly integrated memory devices have been deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates in situ by pulsed laser deposition(PLD). We have systematically investigated the variation of grain sizes depending on the condition of post-annealing and the variation of deposition rate. Both in-situ annealing and ex-situ annealing have been compared depending on the annealing time. C-V measurement, ferroelectric properties, leakage current and SEM were performed to investigate the electrical properties and the microstructural properties of Pb(La,Ti)$O_3$ films.

Transparent ZnO thin films were prepared by KrF pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique and applied to a bottom-gate type thin film transistor device as an active channel layer. A high conductive crystalline Si substrate was used as an metal-like bottom gate and SiN insulating layer was then deposited by LPCVD(low pressure chemical vapour deposition). An aluminum layer was then vacuum evaporated and patterned to form a source/drain metal contact. Oxygen partial pressure and substrate temperature were varied during the ZnO PLD deposition process and their influence on the thin film properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and Hall-van der Pauw method. Optical transparency of the ZnO thin film was analyzed by UV-visible phometer. The resulting ZnO-TFT devices showed an on-off ration of $10^6$ and field effect mobility of 2.4-6.1 $cm^2/V{\cdot}s$.

$LaGaO_3$ 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.

ZnO nanowlres (NWs) were fabricated using Au as catalyst for a method combining laser ablation cluster formation and vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth. The target used in synthesis was pure ZnO ceramics. Two different substrates were used; (0001)-oriented sapphires and Au-coated sapphires. The Au thin film was deposited by thermal evaporation and the thickness was about 50 ${\AA}$. ZnO NWs were only formed in case of that used catalyst metal. Field effect scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) investigation showed that the average diameter of ZnO NWs was about 70 nm and the typical lengths varied from $3{\sim}4{\mu}m$.

ZnO thin films on (001) sapphire substrates have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition using a Nd:YAG laser with the wavelength of 355 nm at an oxygen pressure of 350 mTorr. In order to investigate the effect of the substrate temperature on the properties of ZnO thin films, the experiment has been performed at various substrate temperatures in the range of $200^{\circ}C$ to $700^{\circ}C$. According to XRD, (002) textured ZnO films of high crystalline quality have been obtained by pulsed laser deposition technique. However, the intensity of UV emission is mostly depending on the stoichiometry of ZnO films.

Dual mode resonators were fabricated using high temperature superconductor. The deposited material was $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$(YBCO) on MgO(100) substrate using pulsed laser deposition. Dual mode resonators were patterned by standard photolithography process and wet etching. At the back-side of the substrate, the ground plane with the metal layer of Ti and Ag was fabricated. The transition temperatures of YBCO films were 85-88 K, and network analyzer was used for testing the performance of the resonators. The input/output feedline angles of each resonator were $60^{\circ}$and $100^{\circ}$. The resonant frequency of resonators was 10 GHz. In this paper, dual mode resonator was fabricated for the application of satellite communication.
