In this study, $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$thin films were deposited on $Al_2$O$_3$substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method from a $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$target(99.9%). The sputtering atmosphere was Ar and 80%Ar:20%O$_2$mixture in a total gas pressure of 1~3mTorr. As-deposited $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$thin films were heated to 300, 400, 500, $600^{\circ}C$ for 5hr in oxygen atmosphere. The structure and the morphology of $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$thin films were examined by scanning Electron microscopy(SEM) and the crystal structure was analyzed by X-Ray Diffractometer(XRD). The microstructure of the annealed $\alpha$-Fe$_2$O$_3$films exhibits rather gross particle and the grain size was less than 100nm. Since the grain size was very small, the gas sensitivity was expected to be improved.

RF magnetron sputtering법을 이용하여 IGZO박막을 RF power 100W로 일정하게 유지시켜, 열처리 변화에 따른 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성 분석을 연구하였다. IGZO 타겟은 $In_2$ $O_3$, $Ga_2$ $O_3$, ZnO 분말을 각각 1:1:2 mol% 조성비로 혼합하여 소결한 타겟을 사용하였고, $20mm{\times}20mm$ XG glass 기판위에 IGZO박막을 증착하였다. sputtering의 조건은 base pressure $2.0{\times}$10^-6Torr, working pressure $2.0{\times}$10^-2Torr, RF power 100 W, 증착온도는 실온으로 고정, 증착된 박막은 Annealing장비로 $500^{\circ}C$, $700^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$로 열처리를 하였다. XRD 분석 결과 열처리 $700^{\circ}C$부터 2theta=31.4도에서 peak intensity가 증가하며 결정화가 진행되는 것을 확인하였다. AFM분석 결과 열처리 $700^{\circ}C$에서 최소 0.31 Roughness를 갖는 것을 확인하였고, Hall 측정 결과 열처리 $700^{\circ}C$에서 carrier concentration $4.91{\times}$10^19cm^-3, Mobility 14.4cm^2/V-s, Resistivity $8.7{\times}$10^-5${\Omega}-cm$로 확인하였으며, UV-Visible-NIR을 이용하여 열처리 한 모든 IGZO박막은 가시광선 영역에서 평균 85%이상의 광 투과성을 확인하였다.

Piezoelectric ZnO thin films were for the first time formed on SiO$_2$/Si(100) substrate using 2-step deposition, atomic layer deposition(ALD) and RF magnetron sputtering deposition, for film bulk acoustic resonator(FBAR) applications. The ZnO buffer layer by ALD was deposited using alternating diethyl zinc(DEZn)/$H_2O$ exposures and ultrahigh purity argon gas for purging. The ZnO films by 2-step deposition revealed stronger c-axis-preferred orientation and smoother surface than those by the conventional RF sputtering method. The solidly mounted resonator(SMR)-typed FBAR fabricated by using 2-step deposition method revealed higher quality factor of 580 and lower return loss of -17.35dB. Therefore the 2-step deposition method in this study could be applied to the FBAR device fabrication.

Silicon nitride thin films are deposited by RF (13.57 MHz) magnetron sputtering process using a Si (99.999 %) target and with different ratios of Ar/N₂ sputtering gas mixture. Corning G type glass is used as substrate. The vacuum atmosphere, RF source power, deposit time and temperature of substrate of the sputtering process are maintained consistently at 2 ~ 3 × 10^-3 torr, 30 sccm, 100 watt, 20 min. and room temperature, respectively. Cross sectional views and surface morphology of the deposited thin films are observed by field emission scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The hardness values are determined by nano-indentation measurement. The thickness of the deposited films is approximately within the range of 88 nm ~ 200 nm. As the amount of N₂ gas in the Ar:N₂ gas mixture increases, the thickness of the films decreases. AFM observation reveals that film deposited at high Ar:N₂ gas ratio and large amount of N₂ gas has a very irregular surface morphology, even though it has a low RMS value. The hardness value of the deposited films made with ratio of Ar:N₂=9:1 display the highest value. The XPS spectrum indicates that the deposited film is assigned to non-stoichiometric silicon nitride and the transmittance of the glass with deposited SiO₂-Si_xN_y thin film is satisfactory at 97 %.

NbTi thin films were prepared on Si wafer and Cu substrate by rf magnetron sputtering in the range of sputtering pressure $3{\times}10^{-2}$torr to $3{\times}10^{-4}$torr at room temperature. The influence of sputtering pressure and substrate type on crystallographic orientation and morphology of NbTi thin films was investigated by using X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM), respectively. And the effect of crystallographic orientation and morphology of NbTi film on electromagnetic behaviors was estimated by measuring critical current in various applied magnetic field. The film morphology changed from porous structure consisting of tapered crystallites to densely deposited film decreasing with sputtering pressure. The change of crystallographic orientation with the sputtering pressure and rf power was calculated from the texture coefficient of(002) plane based on XRD patterns. It was found that a change of texture coefficient of(002) plane increased with decreasing sputtering pressure. From observation of critical current in various applied magnetic field, we have identified that the change of critical current abruptly decrease applying with magnetic field and NbTi film produced at high sputtering pressure does not exhibit superconductivity but at low sputtering pressure shows superconductivity.

In this study, off-axis RF magnetron sputtering was used for the crystallized ITO thin films at a low temperature of about $120^{\circ}C$ instead of the conventional RF sputtering because the off-axis sputtering can avoid the damage for the plasma as well as fabrication of thin films with a high quality. The structural, optical and electrical properties of the obtained films depending on deposition parameters, such as sputtering power, gas flow and working pressure, have been investigated. The ITO thin films grown on PET substrate at $120^{\circ}C$ were crystallized with a (222) preferred orientation. 100-nm thick ITO films showed a resistivity of about $4.2{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$ and a transmittance of about 81% at a wavelength of 550nm. The transmittance of the ITO thin films by an insertion of $SiO_2$ thin films on ITO films was improved.

The ITO films were deposited on glass substrates by RF-superimposed dc reactive magnetron sputtering and were annealed in $N_2$ vacuum furnace with temperatures in the range of $403K{\sim}573K$ for 30 minutes. Electrical, optical and structural properties of ITO films were examined with varying annealing temperatures from 403 K to 573 K. The resistivity of as-deposited ITO films was $5.4{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ at the sputter conditions of applied RF/DC power of 200/200 W, $O_{2}$ flow of 0.2 seem and Ar flow of 0.2 seem. As a result of annealing in the temperature range of $403K{\sim}573K$, the crystallization occurred at 423 K that is lower than the crystallization temperature caused by a conventional sputtering method. And the resistivity decreased from $5.4{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm\;to\;2.3{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$, the carrier concentration and mobility of ITO films increased from $4.9{\times}10^{20}/cm^3\;to\;6.4{\times}10^{20}/cm^3$, from $20.4cm^2/Vsec\;to\;41.0cm^2/Vsec$, respectively. The transmittance of ITO films in visible became higher than 90% when annealed in the temperature range of $423K{\sim}573K$. High quality ITO thin films made by RF-superimposed dc reactive magnetron sputtering and annealing in $N_2$ vacuum furnace will be applied to transparent conductive oxides of the advanced flat panel display.

Ga doped zinc oxide films (ZnO:Ga) were deposited on glass substrate by RF magnetron sputtering from a ZnO target mixed with $Ga_O_3$. The effects of RF discharge power on the electrical, optical and structural properties were investigated experimentally. The structural and electrical properties of the film are highly affected by the variation of RF discharge power. The lowest electrical resistivity of $4.9{\times}10^{-4}\;\Omega-cm$ were obtained with the film deposited from 3 wt% of $Ga_2O_3$ doped target and at 200 W in RF discharge power. The transmittance of the 900 nm thin film was 91.7% in the visible waves. The effect of annealing on the as-deposited film was also studied to improve the electrical resistivity of the ZnO:Ga film.
