MgO thin films were deposited by internal ICP-assisted reactive-magnetron sputtering with bipolar pulse bias on a substrate to suppress random arcs. Mg is reactively sputtered by a bipolar pulsed DC power of 100 kHz into ICP generated by a dielectrically shielded internal antenna. At a mass flow ratio of $Ar/O_2$ = 10 : 2 and an ICP/sputter power ratio of 1 : 1, optimal film properties were obtained (a powder-like crystal orientation distribution and a RMS surface roughness of approximately 0.42 nm). A bipolar pulse substrate bias at a proper frequency (~a few kHz) prevented random arc events. The crystalline preferred orientations varied between the (111), (200) and (220) orientations. By optimizing the plasma conditions, films having similar bulk crystallinity characteristics (JCPDS data) were successfully obtained.

An MgO thin film sputtering system for the PDP (Plasma Display Panel) applications has been developed. This system was manufactured with a vertical In-Line type of 42 inch, which has the length of 520 mm and the width of 900 mm. A reactive magnetron discharge for this sputtering was generated using an unipolar pulsed power supply which has functions of constant voltage (Max. 500 V) and current (Max. 15 A) control, frequency of $10{\sim}100$ kHz and duty ratio of $10{\sim}60$ %. The experiment was conducted under various conditions : $3{\sim}10$ mTorr of pressure, the ratio of $O_2$/Ar = $0.1{\sim}0.5$, 50 % of duty and power of $0.5{\sim}1.7$ kW. From the experiment, the deposition rate of a static state and a moving state were measured to be about 45 nm/min and 6 nm m/min at the distance of 50 mm between the target and the substrate, respectively.

To enhance the ionization level of I-PVD and reduce the coil voltage two approaches were tried and as a diagnostic, optical emission spectroscopy and impedance analysis of the plasma was done with a range of Ar pressures and RF power along with XRD analysis of deposited Ag films. RF sputtering power was pulsed with various on/off time scales to recover the ICP quenched by sputtered metals. This in average enhances the ionization of the sputtered atoms with 10 ms/10 ms and 100 ms/100ms pulse on/off time duration and gives higher (200) preferred orientation over (111) in deposited Ag films. Secondly, Small axial B field about 8G remarkably reduced RF coil sputtering and showed scaled relationship between RF power and magnetic field strength for optimal process condition. From OES of Ar0 and Ar+, wave-like dispersion structure appeared and reduced the coil voltage about 20% at very weak field strength of 8G. This should be studied further to have nay relation with low mode helicon wave launching.

For the economical and environmental-friendly fabrication of polisher, Mo mask layer were sputtered on glass substrate instead of Cr mask material. Mo mask layers were sputtered by pulsed-DC sputtering and Photoresist patterns were formed on Mo mask layer for different develop times and optimized. After Mo mask layer were patterned and exposed glass was wet etched by HF solution for different etching times, the remaining Mo mask was stripped by using Al etchant. Develop time of 30 sec and HF wet etching time of 3 min were selected as optimized process condition and applied to the fabrication of polisher.

CeO$_2$ 박막은 증착시 스퍼터링개스비 (Ar:O$_2$)에 따른 특성을 고찰하였다. Si(100) 기판 위에 $700^{\circ}C$에서 증착된 CeO$_2$ 박막들은 (200)방향으로 우선방향성을 가지고 성장하였고 $O_2$ 개스량이 증가함에 따라 박막의 우선방향성, 결정립도 및 표면거칠기는 감소하였다. C-V특성에서는 Ar:O$_2$가 1 : 1인 조건에서 제조된 박막이 가장 양호한 특성을 보였다. 제조된 박막들의 누설전류값은 100kV/cm의 전계에서 $10^{-7}$ ~$10^{-8}$ A의 차수를 보였다.

5.2GHz 중심 주파수를 갖는 Bragg reflector형 FBAR를 제작하여 주파수 응답 특성을 측정하고, 공진기 구조에서 각 층의 탄성 손실(acoustic loss)을 고려한 주파수 응답의 수치적 계산을 통해서 그 특성을 분석하였다. W과 $SiO_2$쌍을 선택하여 RF sputtering법으로 총 9층의 Bragg reflector를 제작하였고, 공진기의 압전층으로 pulsed dc 전원에 의한 sputtering법으로 AlN과 Al 전극을 증착하여 제작하였다. 제작된 공진기의 반사손실( $S_{11}$)은 중심주파수 5.38GHz에서 12dB이었고 직렬 공진 주파수( $f_{s}$)는 5.376GHz, 병렬 공진 주파수 ( $f_{p}$)는 5.3865GHz로 관찰되었다. 공진기의 성능지수인 유효 전기기계결합계수( $K_{ef{f^2}}$)값이 약 0.48%, 품질계수 ( $Q_{s}$) 값이 411이었다. 수치적으로 계산된 주파수 응답 특성으로부터 AlN 박막의 acoustic 상수들과 Bragg reflector의 반사계수를 도출한 결과 AlN 박막의 material acoustic impedance와 wave velocity는 AlN 고유의 값보다 감소되었으며, AlN 박막의 전기기계 결합계수( $K^2$)값은 c축 배향성 저하에 의해 매우 작은 값(0.49%)을 가졌다. 주파수 대역에서 Bragg reflector의 반사계수는 약 0.99966으로 계산되었으며 약 2.5 GHz에서 9.5 GHz까지의 넓은 반사대역을 나타내었다.다.었다.

Recently, transmittance of photomasks for ultra-violet (UV) region is getting more important, as the light source wavelength of an exposure process is shortened due to the demand for technologies about high integration and miniaturization of devices. Meanwhile, such problems can occur as damages or the reduction of yield of photomask as electrostatic damage (ESD) occurs in the weak parts due to the accumulation of static electricity and the electric charge on chromium metal layers which are light shielding layers, caused by the repeated contacts and the peeling off between the photomask and the substrate during the exposure process. Accordingly, there have been studies to improve transmittance and antistatic performance through various functional coatings on the photomask surface. In the present study, we manufactured antireflection films of Nb₂O₅, | SiO₂ structure and antistatic films of ITO designed on 100 × 100 × 3 mmt sodalime glass by DC magnetron sputtering system so that photomask can maintain high transmittance at I-line (365 nm). ITO thin film deposited using In/Sn (10 wt.%) on sodalime glass was optimized to be 10 nm-thick, 3.0 × 103 𝛺/☐ sheet resistance, and about 80% transmittance, which was relatively low transmittance because of the absorption properties of ITO thin film. High average transmittance of 91.45% was obtained from a double side antireflection and antistatic thin films structure of Nb₂O₅ 64 nm | SiO₂ 41 nm | sodalime glass | ITO 10 nm | Nb₂O₅ 64 nm | SiO₂ 41 nm.

We have fabricated pure YBCO films and $BaZrO_3$ doped ones on $CeO_2$ buffered YSZ single crystal substrates using rf-sputtering method. In this work, pure YBCO and 2 vol% BZO doped YBCO target were used to investigate the flux pinning properties of BZO doped YBCO films compared to undoped ones. BZO nanodots within the superconducting materials was known to comprise the self-assembled columnar defects along the c-axis from the bottom of YBCO films up to the top surface, thus can be a very strong pinning sites in the applied magnetic field parallel to them. We will discuss the possibility of growing self-assembled columnar defects in the rf-sputtering method. It is speculated that BZO and YBCO phases can separate and BZO form nanodots surrounded by YBCO epitaxial layers and continuous phase separation and ordering between these two materials, which was well studied in Pulsed Laser Deposition method. For this purpose, some severe experimental conditions such as on-axis sputtering, shorter target-substrate distance, high rf-power, etc was adopted and their results will be presented.

PLD 방법으로 성장된 ZnO 박막위에 RF sputtering 방법을 사용하여 ZnO 박막을 재증착시켰으며, 성장된 ZnO 박막의 물성을 분석하기 위하여 XRD, SEM 및 AFM 분석장비를 사용하였다. 두 가지 증착 방법이 단계적으로 적용되어 성장된 ZnO 박막의 경우, 결정성과 배향성이 우수하게 유지되면서 표면거칠기가 향상되었다. 분석 결과, ${\omega}$-scan의 반치폭과 표면거칠기의 RMS 값은 각각 $0.79^{\circ}$와 1.108 nm였다. 그리고 성장된 양질의 ZnO 박막을 사용하여 SAW-BPF를 제작하여 측정한 결과는 응답 특성의 중심주파수가 260.8 MHz, 대역폭은 2.98 MHz, 그리고 삽입손실은 36.5 dB이었다.
