In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO) has drawn much attention as a compatible material for transparent thin film transistors (TTFT) channel layer due to its high mobility and optical transparency at low processing temperatures. In this work, we investigated the effect of oxygen ambient on structural, electrical and optical properties of amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (IGZO) thin films by using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The films were deposited at various oxygen pressures and the structural, electrical and optical properties were investigated. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that amorphous IGZO films were grown at all oxygen pressures. The surface morphology and optical properties with various oxygen pressures were studied by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and UV-VIS spectroscopy, respectively. The grain boundary was observed more apparently and the calculated optical band gap became larger as oxygen pressure increased. To examine the electrical properties, Hall-effect measurements were carried out. The films showed high mobility.

ZnO thin films were deposited on p-type 4H-SiC substrate by pulsed laser deposition. ZnO nanowires were formed on p-type 4H-SiC substrate by furnace. Ti/Au electrodes were deposited on ZnO thin film/SiC and ZnO nanowire/SiC structures, respectively. Structural and crystallographical properties of the fabricated ZnO thin film/SiC and ZnO nanowire/SiC structures were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. In this work, resistance and sensitivity of ZnO thin film/SiC gas sensor and ZnO nanowire/SiC gas sensor were measured at $300^{\circ}C$ with various CO gas concentrations (0%, 90%, 70%, and 50%). Resistance of gas sensor decreases at CO gas atmosphere. Sensitivity of ZnO nanowire/SiC gas sensor is twice as big as sensitivity of ZnO thin film/SiC gas sensor.

We have developed a planar-type single layer second-order $high-T_{c}$ SQUID gradiometer, which can detect the $d^2$$B_{z/}$dxdy of the second-order field gradient. This SQUID gradiometer consists of four-way 'clover-leaf' pick-up loops and is coupled directly to a 4-junction dc SQUID in such a way that the coupling polarity of the two diagonal loops is opposite to that of the other two loops. The pickup loops are intrinsically balanced for both uniform field and the 1 st-order field gradient. The $YBa_2$$Cu_3$$O_{7}$ thin film was made by pulsed laser deposition method on $SrTiO_3$ single crystal substrate and patterned by photolithography with Ar ion milling technique. Response of this gradiometer was tested for both uniform field and the 2nd-order field gradient. Details of the design, fabrication, and results will be discussed.

We investigated the properties of artificial pinning centers of YBCO multilayer films in which $Y_2O_3$ and ZnO nanoparticles are uniformly introduced by using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. $Y_2O_3$ and ZnO nanoparticles were deposited on top of YBCO buffer layer and the density of nanoparticles was controlled by varying the number of nanoparticle layers. YBCO superconducting layers with total thickness of 250 nm were deposited on top of $Y_2O_3$ and ZnO nanoparticles. Based on analyses of the surface morphology, the transition temperature $T_c$, and the critical current density $J_c$, we discussed the difference between the two kinds of nanoparticles as flux pinning centers.

ZnO thin films were deposited on a-, c- and m- plane oriented 4H-SiC substrates by pulsed laser deposition. ZnO nanowires were formed on substrates by tube furnace. Shape and density of the ZnO nanowires were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope. Average surface roughness and root mean square surface roughness were measure by atomic force microscope. Optical properties were investigated by Photoluminescence measurement. Density of ZnO nanowires grown on a-, c- and m-plane oriented 4H-SiC substrates were 17.89 ${\mu}m^{-2}$, 9.98 ${\mu}m^{-2}$ and 2.61 ${\mu}m^{-2}$, respectively.

Vanadium dioxide(VO2) has been reported to be the most attractive material for thermochromic windows due to its semiconductor-metal phase transition at around $68^{\circ}C$. However, our previous experiment showed it is difficult to grow VO2 thin films directly on glass substrate, whereas thermochromic VO2 thin films were successfully grown on R-cut sapphire substrate. Properties of VO2 thin films on different orientations of sapphire substrates were already reported. Furthermore, VO2 thin films were successfully grown heteroepitaxially on (001) preferred oriented ZnO coated glass. We deposited VO2 thin films using V2O5 targets on substrates with various lattice parameters with same orientation(SrTiO3, MgO, and Sapphire substrate of (001) orientation) by pulsed laser deposition. In this work, we will discuss the effects of lattice misfit, substrate-induced stress and grain size on the properties of VO2 thin films deposited on various substrate materials.

Two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) has been investigated at the heterointerface between two insulating dielectric perovskite oxides, $LaAlO_3$ (LAO)/$SrTiO_3$ (STO). Properties of the 2DEG have attracted an enormous interest in condensed matter physics due to multifunctional properties such as the coexistence of ferromagnetism and superconductivity, as well as the high electron mobility. Here, we have grown $Ta_2O_5$ thin films using pulsed laser deposition on $SrTiO_3$ substrate to investigate the electric properties of the $Ta_2O_5$/STO heterointerface. Our research reveal that the non-polar $Ta_2O_5$/$TiO_2$ heterointerface favors the formation of 2DEG similar to that at the LAO/STO heterointerface. The metallic behavior was found in this heterointerface with the current about $10{\sim}100{\mu}A$ at 5 V by using conventional I-V measurements, when the $Ta_20_5$ film thickness reaches over critical thickness, $d_c{\simeq}2uc$. The finding that electrons was localized at $Ta_2O_5$/STO heterointerface have attracted to be strong and new candidate for nanoscale oxide device applications.

We have studied the annealing effects of 570 (SrTiO$_3$) single crystal substrate and the I-V properties of step-edge junctions after Ar ion milling. YBa$_2Cu_3O_7$ (YBCO) thin films are fabricated on the substrates by using pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and photolithography. The surface of Ar ion milled substrate was characterized with atomic force microscope (AFM) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) images. After the substrate was damaged by milling, the critical current density of YBCO thin films deposited on the substrate was lowered. The annealing of the damaged substrate at about 1000 $^{\circ}C$ recovered the critical current density to that before the milling. Futhermore the annealing helped junction formation due to high quality film and increased the yield rate for the fabrication of high quality step-edge junction.

A new type of high-T$_c$ superconducting Josephson junctions has been prepared by Ar ion beam etching and electron beam lithography. YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) films deposited on (001) SrTiO$_3$ single crystal substrate by pulsed laser deposition were patterned by Ar ion milling with photolithography. The narrow slit with a electroresist mask, about 1000 ${\AA}$ wide, was constructed over a 3 ${\sim}$ 5 ${\mu}$m bridge of a 1200-${\AA}$-thick YBCO film by electron beam lithography. The slit was then etched by the Ar ion beam to form a damaged 600-${\AA}$-thick YBCO. Thus prepared structure forms an S-N-S (YBCO - damaged YBCO - YBCO) type Josephson junctions. Those junctions exhibit RSI-like I-V characteristics at 77 K. The properties of the Josephson junctions such as I$_c$ R$_N$, and J$_c$ were characterized.
