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.

At recent time, superconducting technology makes it possible to develop various devices using strong magnetic fields. As increasing with devices using high magnetic fields, magnetic shielding technology is essential in order to get high efficiency. Therefore it is necessary to establish production method and clear characteristics of suitable shielding materials. Usually, ferromagnetic metal has been used for shielding of high magnetic fields up to the present time. Instead of heavy ferromagnetic metal, we can acquire better upgraded shielding system by using of very light superconducting thin film that has a perfect diamagnetism. We would like to study basic characteristics of NbTi thin film produced by RF sputtering, investigated morphology and crystal structure of NbTi thin film by SEM and XRD, identified superconductivity measuring by critical current.

In order to increase the efficiency of the sputtering method widely used in thin film fabrication, a dc sputtering apparatus which supplies both high frequency and magnetic field from the outside was fabricated, and cobalt thin film was fabricated using this apparatus. The apparatus can independently control the applied voltage, the target-substrate distance, and the target current, which are important parameters in the sputtering method, so that a stable glow discharge is obtained even at a low gas pressure of $10^{-3}$ Torr. The fabrication conditions using the sputtering method were mainly performed in $Ar+O_2$ mixed gas containing about 0.6 % oxygen gas under various Ar gas pressures of 1 to 30 mTorr. The microstructure of Co thin films deposited using this apparatus was examined by electron diffraction pattern and X-ray techniques. The magnetic properties were investigated by measuring the magnetization curves. The microstructure and magnetic properties of Co thin films depend on the discharge gas pressure. The thin film fabricated at high gas pressure showed a columnar structure containing a large amount of the third phase in the boundary region and the thin film formed at low gas pressure showed little or no columnar structure. The coercivity in the plane was slightly larger than that in the latter case.

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.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) films were prepared using radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering method, magnets were equipped near the target in the sputter to bring the plasma near the target. The effect of magnetic field that brings the plasma near the substrate was compared with that of substrate heating. The effect of substrate heating on the grain size of the ITO thin film was larger than that of the magnetic field. However, the grain size of the ITO thin film was larger when the magnetic field was applied near the substrate during the sputtering process than when the substrate was not heated and the magnetic field was not applied. If stronger magnetic field is applied near the substrate during sputtering, it can be expected that the ITO thin film with good electrical conductivity and high transparency is obtained at low substrate temperature. When magnetic field of 90 Gauss was applied near the substrate during sputtering, the mobility of the ITO thin film increased from 15.2 $cm^2/V.s$ to 23.3 $cm^2/V.s$, whereas the sheet resistivity decreased from 7.68 ${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ to 5.11 ${\Omega}{\cdot}cm$.

We studied the electro-optical characteristic of vertical alignment liquid crystal display(VA-LCD) on the $SiO_x$ thin film deposited $45^{\circ}$ oblique by rf magnetic sputtering system. LC alignment characteristic showed homeotropic alignment, and pretilt angle was about $90^{\circ}$. A uniform liquid crystal alignment effect on the $SiO_x$ thin film was achieved and the electro-optical characteristic of the $SiO_x$ thin film deposited $45^{\circ}$ oblique by rf magnetic sputtering system was excellent.

Multiferroic $CoCr_2O_4$ film was deposited on MgO and $MgAl_2O_4$ substrates by the rf-sputtering process. The films were prepared at an RF-magnetron sputtering power of 50 W and a pressure of 10 mtorr (20 sccm in Ar), and at substrate temperatures of $550^{\circ}C$. The crystal structure was determined to be a spinel (Fd-3m) structure by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD) with Cu $K{\yen}{\acute{a}}$ radiation. The thickness and morphology of the films were measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The magnetic properties were measured using a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQIUD) magnetometer. While the ferrimagnetic transitions were observed at about 93 K, which was determined as the Neel temperature, the magnetic properties all show different behaviors. The differences between the magnetic properties can be explained by the stress effects between $CoCr_2O_4$ and the substrates of MgO and $MgAl_2O_4$.
