The nematic liquid crysta](NLC) aligning capabilities using a-C:H thin film deposited at the three kinds of rf bias condition were investigated. A high pretilt angle of NLC on low substrate rf bias applied a-C:H thin films was observed and the low pretilt angle of the NLC on high substrate rf bias applied a-C:H thin films was observed. Consequently, the high NLC pretilt angle and the good aligning capabilities of LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film deposited at 1 W rf bias condition can be achieved. It is considered that pretilt angle of the NLC may be attributed to substrate rf bias condition and IB energy time. Therefore, LC alignment is affected by topographical structure forming strong IB energy.

The nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities using a-C:H thin film deposited at the three kinds of rf bias condition were investigated. A high pretilt angle of about $11^{\circ}$ by the ion beam alignment method was observed on the a-C:H thin film (polymer-like carbon) deposited at 1W rf bias condition, and the low pretilt angle of the NLC was observed on the a-C:H thin film(diamond-like carbon) deposited at rf 30W and 60W bias condition. Consequently, the high NLC pretilt angle and the good aligning capabilities of LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film deposited at 1W rf bisa condition can be achieved.

진공을 기초로 한 극판 전력이 인가된 유도 결합 플라즈마 소스에 관한 대부분의 연구는 자기 바이어스 효과에만 한정되어 있으며, 다양한 반도체 및 디스플레이 식각 공정에서 공정 결과와 소자 품질에 결정적인 역할을 하는 플라즈마 변수들(전자 온도, 플라즈마 밀도)과 극판 전력의 상관관계에 대한 연구는 거의 없는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 극판 전력이 플라즈마 변수에 미치는 영향에 관한 내용을 다루고 있으며, 최근의 연구 결과에 대한 리뷰를 포함하고 있다. 플라즈마 밀도는 극판 전력 인가에 의하여 감소 또는 증가하였으며, Fluid global model에 의한 결과와 잘 일치하는 경향을 보였다. 전자 온도는 RF 바이어스에 의하여 증가하였으며, 전자 에너지 분포 측정을 통하여 전자 가열 메커니즘을 관찰하였다. 또한, 플라즈마 밀도의 공간 분포는 극판 전력에 의하여 더욱 균일해짐을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 극판 전력과 플라즈마 변수들의 상관관계와 전자 가열 메커니즘에 대한 연구는 방전 특성의 물리적 이해뿐만 아니라, 반도체 식각 공정에서 소자 품질 및 공정 개선을 위한 최적의 방전조건 도출과 외부 변수 제어에 큰 도움을 주리라 예상된다.

본 논문에서는 유기박막트랜지스터용 절연막에 활용코자 플라즈마중합방법을 이용하여 PMMA 절연막을 제작하였다. 기판의 바이어스인가 및 증착중 압력변화에 따른 전기적특성을 파악한 결과, 플라즈마중합법에 의한 MMA절연막의 증착조건 RF100[W], Ar20[sccm], 5[mtorr], RF bias 20[W] 에서 3.4의 유전율, 8.6[nm/min]의 높은 증착율 및 높은 절연특성을 얻을수 있다. 이처럼 얻어진 플라즈마 중합막은 유기트랜지스터 및 유기메모리의 절연막으로 충분히 활용가능함을 알 수 있다.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film as working gas at 30W rf bias condition. A high pretilt angle of about 5$^{\circ}$ by ion beam(IB) exposure on the a-C:H thin film surface was measured. A good LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface was observed at annealing temperature of 250$^{\circ}C$, and the alignment defect of the NLC was observed above annealing temperature of 300$^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the high LC pretilt angle and the good thermal stability of LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface as working gas at 30W rf bias condition can be achieved.

The resistances of metal2 contact to metall and poly Si are checked by various RF etch conditions in terms of pre-cleaning. The changes of resistance are evaluated by statistical analysis method(SAS) for the AC bias power, coil power and RF target. The contact area on poly Si is shown by TEM image and the distributions of contact resistance according to ar etch target and RTP are investigated. The RTP groups have larger variations than normal RF etch targets. When the RF etch target becomes lower and coil power becomes higher, the resistances of metal2 contact to metals and poly Si have lower contact resistance. But the condition of AC bias power did not satisfied low meta12 contacts resistance for metall and poly Si simultaneously. The R-square of ststistical analysis was 0.98 for resistances of meta12 contact to poly Si and 0.87 for resistances of meta12 contact to metall.

Transparent conductive tungsten (W) doped indium oxide (In₂O₃; IWO) films were deposited at different substrate bias voltage (-V_b) conditions at room temperature on glass substrates by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering and the influence of the substrate bias voltage on the optical and electrical properties was investigated. As the substrate bias voltage increased to -350 V_b, the IWO films showed a lower resistivity of 2.06 × 10^-4 Ωcm. The lowest resistivity observed for the film deposited at -350 V_b could be attributed to its higher mobility, of 31.8 cm²/Vs compared with that (6.2 cm²/Vs) of the films deposited without a substrate bias voltage (0 V_b). The highest visible transmittance of 84.1 % was also observed for the films deposited at the -350 V_b condition. The X-ray diffraction observation indicated the IWO films deposited without substrate bias voltage were amorphous phase without any diffraction peaks, while the films deposited with bias voltage were polycrystalline with a low In₂O₃ (222) diffraction peak and relatively high intensity (431) and (046) diffraction peaks. From the observed visible transmittance and electrical properties, it is concluded that the opto-electrical performance of the polycrystalline IWO film deposited by RF magnetron sputtering can be enhanced with effective substrate bias voltage conditions.

In this work BN thin films were deposited on Si substrate by R. F. sputtering method at $200^{\circ}C$ and in Ar + $N_2$ mixed gas atmosphere. In order to investigate the effect of ion bombardment on substrate for c-BN bonding, substrate bias voltage was applied. The optimum substrate bias voltage for c-BN bonding was determined by FTIR analysis on specimens which were deposited with various bias voltages. Then BN thin film was deposited with this optimum condition and its phase, morphology, chemical composition, and refractive index were compared with those of BN film which was deposited without bias voltage. FTIR results showed that BN films deposited with substrate bias voltage were composed of mixed phases of c-BN and h-BN, while those deposited without bias voltage were h-BN only. When pure Ar gas was used for sputtering gas, BN films were delaminated easily from substrate in air, while when 10% $N_2$ gas was added to the sputtering gas, although c-BN specific infrared peak was reduced, delamination did not occur. GXRD and TEM results showed that BN films were amorphous phases regardless of substrate bias voltage, and AES results showed that the chemical compositions of B/N were about 1.7~1.8. The refractive index of BN film deposited with bias voltage was higher than that without bias voltage. The reason is believed to be the existence of c-BN bonding in BN film and the higher density of film that deposited with the substrate bias voltage.

Contact-type linear image sensors have been fabricated by means of RF glow discharge decomposition method of silane and hydrogen mixtures. The dependences of the electrical and optical properties of these sensor on thickness, RF power, substrate temperature and ambient gas pressure have been investigated. the ITO/i-a-Si:H/Al structure film shows photosensitivity of 0.85 and photocurrent to dark current ratio ($I_{ph}/I_{d}$) of 150 at 5V bias voltage under 200${\mu}W/cm^[2}$ red light intensity. Under 200${\mu}W/cm^[2}$ green light intensity, the ratio is 100. In order to investigate photocarrier transport mechanism and to obtain ${\mu}{\gamma}$ product we have measured the I-V characteristics of these sensors favricated with several different deposition parameters under various light sources. The linear inage sensor for document reading has been operated under reverse bias condition with green light source, resulting in ${\mu}{\gamma}$ product of about 1.5$[\times}10^{-9}cm^{2}$/V.
