Nitride films such as TiN, CrN etc. deposited on glass by PVD processes have been developed for many industrial applications. These nitride films deposited on glass were widely used for not only decorative and optical coatings but also wear and corrosion resistance coatings employed as dies and molds made of glass for the example of lens forming molds. However, the major problem of nitride coatings on glass by PVD process is non-uniform film owing to pin-hole and micro crack. It is estimated that nonuniform coating is influenced by a different surface energy between metal nitrides and glass due to binding states. In this work, therefore, for the evaluation of nucleation and growth mechanism of nitride films on glass TiN and CrN film were synthesized on glass with various nitrogen partial pressure by unbalanced magnetron sputtering. Prior to deposition, for the examination of relationship between surface energy and film microstructure plasma pre-treatment process was carried out with various argon to hydrogen flow rate and substrate bias voltage, duty cycle and frequency by using pulsed DC power supply. Surface energy owing to the different plasma pre-treatment was calculated by the measurement of wetting angle and surface conditions of glass were investigated by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy(XPS) and Atomic Force Microscope(AFM). The microstructure change of nitride films on glass with increase of film thickness were analyzed by X-Ray Diffraction(XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM).

최근 고출력 펄스 스퍼터링, HPPMS (high power pulsed magnetron sputtering)을 개선한 기술이 개발되고 있다. High power impulse magnetron sputtering (HIPIMS)이라고도 불려지는 이 기술은 Kouznetsov1) 에 의해 개발되었으며, 짧은 주기 동안 높은 peak power 밀도를 얻을 수 있기 때문에, 스퍼터링시 높은 이온화율을 만들 수 있다. 스퍼터 된 종들의 높은 이온화는 다양한 분야에서 기존 코팅 물질의 특성 개선 및 self-assisted 이온 증착 공정을 통해 우수한 박막을 제조하는데 기여되고 있다. 그러나 HIPIMS는 순간 전력 밀도가 MW수준으로 높아서 고융점, 고열전도도의 물질에만 적용할 수 있다는 단점을 가지고 있다). 최근에 HIPIMS를 대체하기 위해 modulated pulse POWER (MPP)가 개발되었다. 이것은 스퍼터 된 종들의 이온화율을 높일 수 있음과 동시에 여러 가지 물질에 적용할 수 있다고 보고하고 있다. MPP와 HIPIMS와의 차이점은 HIPIMS는 간단한 하나의 초고출력 펄스를 이용하는 반면에, MPP는 펄스 길이 3 ms 안에서 다양하게 조절이 가능하며, 한 전체 펄스 주기 안에서 다중 세트 펄스와 micro 펄스를 자유롭게 조합하여 인가할 수 있다는 장점이 있다. 본 실험에서는 In2O3 : SnO2의 조성비 10:1 wt% target을 사용하였으며, Ar:O2의 유량비는 10:1의 비율로, 기판의 온도를 올려 주지 않는 상태에서 실험을 하였다. Ar 유량을 40 sccm으로 고정시킨 후 O2의 유량을 2~6 sccm에 대하여 비교를 하였다. 박막의 두께를 100 nm로 이하로 하였을 때 비저항은 $7.6{\times}10-4{\Omega}cm$의 값을, 80% 이상의 투과도와 10 cm2/Vs 이상의 mobility를 얻을 수 있었다. 또한 박막 두께 150 nm로 고정, substrate moving에 따른 ITO 박막의 차이를 알아보았다. 비저항의 값은 $5.6{\times}10-4{\Omega}cm$의 값을, 80% 이상의 투과도와 15 cm2/Vs의 값을 얻었다.

All solid-state thin film lithium batteries have many applications in miniaturized devices because of lightweight, long-life, low self-discharge and high energy density. The research of cathode materials for thin film lithium batteries that provide high energy density at fast discharge rates is important to meet the demands for high-power applications. Among cathode materials, lithium manganese oxide materials as spinel-based compounds have been reported to possess specific advantages of high electrochemical potential, high abundant, low cost, and low toxicity. However, the lithium manganese oxide has problem of capacity fade which caused by dissolution of Mn ions during intercalation reaction and phase instability. For this problem, many studies on effect of various transition metals have been reported. In the preliminary study, the Sn-substituted LiMn2O4 thin films prepared by pulsed laser deposition have shown the improvement in discharge capacity and cycleability. In this study, the thin films of LiMn2O4 and LiSn0.0125Mn1.975O4 prepared by RF magnetron sputtering were studied with effect of deposition parameters on the phase, surface morphology and electrochemical property. And, all solid-state thin film batteries comprised of a lithium anode, lithium phosphorus oxy-nitride (LiPON) solid electrolyte and LiMn2O4-based cathode were fabricated, and the electrochemical property was investigated.

Continuous physical vapor deposition (PVD) method is one of many processes to fabricate long length coated conductor which is required for successful large-scale application of superconducting power devices. Three film deposition systems (pulsed laser deposition, sputtering, and evaporation) equipped with reel-to-reel(R2R) metal tape moving apparatus were installed and used to deposit multi-layer oxide thin films. Both RABiTS and IBAD texture templates are used. IBAD template consists of CeO$_2$(PLD)/YSZ(IBAD) on stainless steel(SS) metal tape, and RABiTS template has the structure of CeO$_2$/YSZ/Y$_2$O$_3$ which was continuously deposited on Ni-alloy tape using R$_2$R evaporation and DC reactive sputtering in a deposition system designed to do both processes. 0.4 m-long coated conductor with Ic(77 K) of 34 A/cm was fabricated using RABiTS template. 0.5 m and 1.1 m-long coated conductor with Ic(77 K) of 41 A/cm and 26 A/cm were fabricated using IBAD template.

Nickel powder was coated with aluminum nitrate solution to increase the thermal stability of a porous nickel support and control the nickel content in the Pd-Cu-Ni ternary alloyed membrane. Raw nickel powder and alumina coated nickel powder were uniaxialy pressed by home made press with metal cylindrical mold. Though the used nickel powder prepared by pulsed wire evaporation (PWE) method has a good thermal stability, the porous nickel support was too much sintered and the pores of porous nickel support was plugged at high temperature (over $800^{\circ}C$) making it not suitable for the porous support of a palladium based composite membrane. In order to overcome this problem, the nickel powder was coated by alumina and alumina modified porous nickel support resists up to $1000^{\circ}C$ without pore destruction. Furthermore, the compositions of Pd-Cu-Ni ternary alloy membrane prepared by magnetron sputtering and Cu-reflow could be controlled by not only Cu-reflow temperature but also alumina coating amount. SEM analysis and mercury porosimeter analysis evidenced that the alumina coated on the surface of nickel powder interrupted nickel sintering.

This paper describes the frequency response of two-port surface acoustic wave (SAW) resonator made of 002-polycrystalline aluminum nitride (AlN) thin film on 111-poly 3C-SiC buffer layer. In there, Polycrystalline AlN thin films were deposited on polycrystalline 3C-SiC buffer layer by pulsed reactive magnetron sputtering system, the polycrystalline 3C-SiC was grown on $SiO_2$/Si sample by CVD. The obtained results such as the temperature coefficient of frequency (TCF) of the device is about from 15.9 to 18.5 ppm/$^{\circ}C$, the change in resonance frequency is approximately linear (30-$150^{\circ}C$), which resonance frequency of AlN/3C-SiC structure has high temperature stability. The characteristics of AlN thin films grown on 3C-SiC buffer layer are also evaluated by using the XRD, and AFM images.

In this study, AlN thin films were deposited on a polycrystalline (poly) 3C-SiC buffer layer for surface acoustic wave (SAW) applications using a pulsed reactive magnetron sputtering system. AFM, XRD and FT-IR were used to analyze structural properties and preferred orientation of the AlN/3C-SiC thin film. Suitability of the film in SAW applications was investigated by comparing the SAW characteristics of an interdigital transducer (IDT)/AlN/3C-SiC structure with the IDT/AIN/Si structure at 160 MHz in the temperature range $30-150^{\circ}C$. These experimental results showed that AlN films on the poly 3C-SiC layer were highly (002) oriented. Furthermore, the film showed improved temperature stability for the SAW device, $TCF\;=\;-18\;ppm//^{\circ}C$. The change in resonance frequency according to temperature was nearly linear. The insertion loss decrease was about $0.033dB/^{\circ}C$. However, some defects existed in the film, which caused a slight reduction in SAW velocity.

Aluminum nitride (AIN) thin films were deposited on a polycrystalline 3C-SiC intermediate layer by a pulsed reactive magnetron sputtering system. Characteristics of the AIN/SiC heterostructures were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The columnar structure of AIN thin films was observed by FE-SEM. The surface roughness of AlN films on the 3C-SiC buffer layer was measured using AFM. The XRD pattern of AlN films on SiC buffer layers was highly oriented at (002). Full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the rocking curve near (002) reflections was $1.3^{\circ}$. The infrared absorbance spectrum indicated that the residual stress of AIN thin films grown on SiC buffer layers was nearly negligible. The 3C-SiC intermediate layers are promising for the realization of nitride based electronic and mechanical devices.

Boron Nitride (BN) doped GeSbTe films were grown by the ion beam sputtering deposition (IBSD). The in-situ sheet resistance data and the x-ray diffraction patterns showed the crystallization is suppressed due to the BN incorporation. The phase change speed in BN doped GeSbTe films were investigated using the static tester equipped with nanosecond pulsed laser. The phase change speed for BN doped GST films become faster than the corresponding values for an undoped GST film. The Johnson-Mehl-Avrami(JMA) plot and Avrami coefficient for laser crystallization showed that the change in growth mode during the laser crystallization is a most important factor for the phase change speed in the BN doped GST films. The JMA results and the atomic force microscopy (AFM) images indicate that the origin of the change in the crystalline growth mode is due to an increase in the number of initial nucleation sites which is produced by the incorporated BN. In addition, the retension properties for the laser writing/erasing are remarkably improved in BN doped GeSbTe films owing to the stability of the incorporated BN.

BiFeO3 (BFO)는 강자성과 유전체 특성을 모두 구현할 수 있는 재료로서 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. BFO 박막을 제조하는 방법에는 sputtering, chemical solution deposition, pulsed laser deposition methods 등이 알려져 있으나, 이러한 방법들은 근본적으로 고 진공을 사용하거나, 고온에서의 열처리, 낮은 성막 속도 등의 문제점이 있어, 상온에서 비교적 쉽게 박막을 제조할 수 있는 Aerosol deposition에 관한 관심이 증가하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 BFO의 강자성, 강유전 특성을 향상시키기 위해 Ba(Cu1/3Nb2/3)O3 (BCN)를 첨가한 Ba(Cu1/3Nb2/3)O3 (BFO-BCN) 복합재료를 합성하였다. 합성한 마이크론 크기의 입자를 사용하여 나노 결정립 크기의 Ba(Cu1/3Nb2/3)O3 (BFO-BCN) 박막을 상온에서 진공 분말 분사 공정(Aerosol-Deposition)을 이용하여 제조하고, 강자성 및 강유전성 특성을 평가하였다. Aerosol deposition방법으로 제조된 BFO-BCN박막은 BFO박막에 비해 우수한 강자성과 강유전 특성 나타내었다.
