With varying rapid thermal annealing (RTA) temperature, luminescent properties of ZnMgS:Mn thin film sputter-deposited with one target were measured. Although all samples have the same composition, $Zn_{1-x}Mg_xS:Mn$ (x=0.25) can emit luminescence between 580 and 614 nm, which is controlled by only RTA temperature. It is understood that the energy band gap shift of ZnMgS:Mn thin film phosphor occurs with varying RTA temperature.

In this presentation, we investigated the abnormal subthreshold slope of the FD SOI MOSFETs upon the rapid thermal annealing. Based on subthreshold technique and C-V measurement, we deduced that the hump of the subthreshold slope comes from the abnormal D$_{it}$ distribution after RTA. The local kink in the interface trap density distribution by RTA drastically degrades the subthreshold characteristics and mini hump can be eliminated by S-PGA.A.

Because the Pb-based piezoelectric materials showed problems such as an environmental pollution. lead-free $O_3$ materials were studied in the present study. The $O_3$ thin films were deposited at $640^{\circ}C$ on $Pt/Ti/SiO_2$ substrate by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and were annealed for 5 min at $750^{\circ}C$ using rapid thermal annealing (RTA) in nitrogen atmosphere. Samples annealed at $750^{\circ}C$ showed a smooth morphology and an improvement of the dielectric and leakage properties, as compared with as-grown samples. However, electrical properties of the $O_3$ thin films obtained in the present study should be improved for piezoelectric applications.

In this research, non-volatile memory effects and nano-crystal creation have been investigated in SiNx containing Si nano-crystals (Si-nc) produced by ICP-CVD and rapid thermal annealing. The quantum dots were created during rapid thermal annealing of Si-rich SiNx thin films. The quantum dot creation was analyzed with photoluminescence spectra, and in case of Si-rich SiNx, it is conformed that the quantum dots are formed easily at 750$\sim$800nm wavelength.

$Pb_{0.99}[(Zr_{0.6}Sn_{0.4})_{0.9}Ti_{0.1}]_{0.98}Nb_{0.02}O_3$ (PNZST) thin films were deposited by radio frequency magnetron sputtering on a $(La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5})CoO_3$ (LSCO)/Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrate using a PNZST target with an excess PbO of 10 mole%. The thin films deposited at the substrate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ crystallized to a perovskite phase after rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The thin films, which annealed at $650^{\circ}C$ for 10 seconds in air, exhibited good crystal structures and ferroelectric properties. The remanent polarization and coercive field of the fabricated PNZST capacitor were approximately $20uC/cm^2$ and 50 kV/cm, respectively. The reduction of the polarization after $2.2\;{\times}\;10^9$ switching cycles was less than 10%.

Thin films of PLZT were prepared on indium tin oxide(ITO) coated glass substrates by sol-gel process and annealed by rapid thermal annealing(RTA) at $750^{\circ}C$ for 5 minutes. The crystal structure of PLZT thin films were investigated for a different Zr mol% content. XRD results showed that the crystallographic structure was transitted from tetragonal to rhombohedral structure as Zr mol% increased. Raman spectroscopy results showed that the bands of spectra became broader as the amount of Zr mol% increased and two crystal phase coexisted at 2/55/45 PLZT film. Raman spectroscopy was useful for crystal structure analysis of PLZT thin films.

In this paper, the electrical properties of Pt/YMnO$_3$/Si(100) structures with difference rapid thermal annealing (RTA) treatment were investigated. YMnO$_3$films were obtained without buffer layers, introducing oxygen. A typical value of the dielectric constant was about 20 derived from 1MHz capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurement and the resistivity of the film at the field of 150kV/cm was about 1.34$\times$10$^{12}$ $\Omega$ . cm. The minimum interface state density around midgap was estimated to be about 5$\times$10$^{11}$ cm$^2$. eV.

Ferroelectric thin films of PZT with differnt Zr/Ti ratio were prepared by sol-gel processing and annealed by rapid-thermal-annealing at $500^{\circ}C-700^{\circ}C$ for 10sec-1min. The structure of the annealed films were examined by X-ray diffraction and SEM. Maximum remnant polarization of 10.24 ${\mu}m/cm^2$ and coercive field of 70 KV/cm were obtained from hysteresis curve or the film.

(Ba$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$)TiO$_3$ thin films were fabricated at different RTA temperatures and thicknesses by Sol-Gel method. Solution consisting of acetate powders and titanium isopropoxide in a mixture of acetic acid and ethylene glycol were spin coated onto Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrates. The films were annealed in the temperature range of 650~80$0^{\circ}C$ for 3 minutes by rapid thermal annealing. These BST thin films were fully crystallized at 75$0^{\circ}C$ and showed a maximum dielectric constant value of $\varepsilon$$_{r}$=~468 and dielectric loss was ~0.025 at a thickness of approximately 4000$\AA$.EX>.>.

We prepared SOI(silicon-on-insulator) wafer pairs of Si II SiO$_2$/Si$_3$N$_4$ II Si using wafer direct bonding with an electric furnace annealing(EFA), a fast linear annealing(FLA), and a rapid thermal annealing(RTA), respectively, by varying the annealing temperatures at a given annealing process. We measured the bonding area and the bonding strength with processes. EFA and FLA showed almost identical bonding area and theoretical bonding strength at the elevated temperature. RTA was not bonded at all due to warpage, We report that FLA process was superior to other annealing processes in aspects of surface temperature, annealing time, and bonding strength.
