  • Thin films of vanadium oxide(VO$\sub$x/) have been deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from V$_2$O$\sub$5/ target in gas mixture of argon and oxygen. The oxygen/(oxygen+argon) partial pressure ratio is changed from 0% to 8%. Crystal structure, chemical composition and bonding properties of films sputter-deposited under different oxygen gas pressures are characterized through XRO, XPS, RBS and FTIR measurements. All the films prepared below 8% O$_2$ are amorphous, and those prepared without oxygen are gray indicating the presence of V$_2$O$\sub$$_4$/ phase in the films. V$_2$O$\sub$5/ and lower oxides co-exist in sputter-deposited films and as the oxygen partial pressure is increased the films become more stoichiometric V$_2$O$\sub$5/. The increase of O/V ratio with increasing oxygen gas pressure is attributed to the partial filling of oxygen vacancies through diffusion. It is observed that the oxygen atoms. located on the V-O plane of V$_2$O$\sub$5/ layer participate more readily in the oxidation process.

  • A Sputter ion Plating(SIP) system with a r.f. coil electrode and the Facing Target Sputter(FTS) source was designed for high-quality thin film formation. The rf discharge was combined with DC facing target sputtering in order to enhance ionization degree of a sputtered atoms. The energy of ions incident on the substrate depended on the health potential of DC biased substrate. The mean impact ion energy increased with negative bias voltage and rf power. The adhesive force of the TiN film formed was in the range of 30$\sim$50N, and markedly influenced by substrate bias voltage.

  • A Spotter ion Plating(SIP) system with a r. f. coil electrode and the Facing Target Sputter(FTS) source was designed for high-quality thin film formation. The rf discharge was combined with DC facing target sputtering in order to enhance ionization degree of a sputtered atoms. The discharge voltage-discharge characteristics curves of a FTS source could be characterized by the fern of $I{\propto}V^n$ with n in the range of $8{\sim}12$. The energy of ions incident on the substrate depended on the sheath potential of DC biased substrate. The mean impact ion energy increased with negative bias voltage and rf power. The adhesive force of the TiN film formed was in the range of $30{\sim}50N$, and markedly influenced by substrate bias voltage.

  • Thin films of vanadium oxide($VO_{x}$) have been deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from $V_{2}O_{5}$ target in gas mixture of argon and oxygen. The oxygen/(oxygen+argon) partial pressure ratio of 0% and 8% is adopted. Crystal structure, chemical composition, molecular structure and optical properties of films sputter-deposited under different oxygen gas pressures and in-situ annealed in vacuum at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1h and 4h are characterized through XRD. RBS, FTlR and optical absorption measurements. The films as-deposited are amorphous and those annealed for time longer than 4h are polycrystalline. $V_{2}O_{5}$ and lower oxides co-exist in sputter-deposited films and as the oxygen partial pressure is increased the films become more stoichiometric $V_{2}O_{5}$. When annealed at $400^{\circ}C$, the as-deposited films are reduced to a lower oxide. It is observed that the oxygen atoms located on the V-O plane of $V_{2}O_{5}$ layer participate more readily in the oxidation and reduction process. The optical transmission of the films annealed in vacuum decreases considerably than the as-deposited films and the optical absorption of all the films increases rapidly between 400 and 550nm.

  • Highly conductive and transparent aluminum doped ZnO thin films (AZO) films have been prepared by r.f. magnetron sputtering processes on poly carbonate (PC) and onto glass as reference. In addition, the electrical, optical properties of the films prepared at various sputtering powers were investigated. The XRD measurements revealed that all of the obtained films were polycrystalline with the hexagonal structure and had a preferred orientation with the c-axis perpendicular to the substrate. The ZnO:Al films were increasingly dark gray colored as the sputter power increased, resulting in the loss of transmittance. High quality films with the resistivity as low as $9.7{\times}10^{-4}\;{\Omega}-cm$ and transmittance over 90% have been obtained by suitably controlling the r.f. power.
