PECVD방법으로 증착된 비정질 실리콘(a-Si)박막이 고상결정화되고 x-선 회절 (XRD)방법으로 조사되었다. a-Si박막들은 기판 온도 120-$380^{\circ}C$사이에서 Si(100)웨이퍼 위에 $SiH_4$가스 혹은 수소희석된 $SiH_4$가스로 증착되고, $600^{\circ}C$로 가열되어 결정화되었다. 고상화 되었을 때(111), (220), (311)XRD피크들이 나타났고 (111) 우선방위가 두드러졌다. 고상결정 화된 다결정 실리콘(poly-Si)박막들의 XRD피크의 세기는 기판온도가 낮아짐에 따라 증가되 었고, 수소희석은 고상화 효과를 감소시켰다. XRD로 측정된(111)결정립의 평균크기는 기판 온도가 낮아짐에 따라 약 10nm로 증가하였다. 기판온도가 낮아질수록 증착속도는 증가하였 으며, 결정의 크기는 증착속도와 밀접한 관계가 있었다. Si계의 구조적 무질서도가 클수록 고상화에 의한 결정립의 크기도 커지는 것으로 생각된다.

We report improved low-field magnetoresistance (LFMR) effects of the $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1+d}O_3-Mn_3O_4$ composite films with the nominal composition of $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}MnO_3$(LSMO)-50 mol% $Mn_3O_4$. The composite films were fabricated by ex-situ solid phase crystallization (SPC) of amorphous films at the annealing temperature region of $900-1100^{\circ}C$ for 2 h in a pure oxygen atmosphere. The amorphous films were deposited on polycrystalline $BaZrO_3$ (poly-BZO) substrates by dc-magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The Curie temperatures ($T_C$) of all composite films were insignificantly altered in the range of 368-372 K. The highest LFMR value of 1.29 % in 0.5 kOe with the maximum dMR/dH value of $37.4%kOe^{-1}$ at 300 K was obtained from 900 nm-thick composite film annealed at $1100^{\circ}C$. The improved LFMR properties of the composite films are attributed to effective spin-dependent scattering at the $La_{0.7}Sr_{0.3}Mn_{1+d}O_3$ grain boundaries sharpened by adjacent chemically compatible $Mn_3O_4$ grains.

Aluminum-induced crystallization (AIC) as a route to reduce the fabrication cost and to obtain polycrystalline Si (p-Si) thin-film of large grain size is a promising alternative of single-crystalline (s-Si) substrate or p-Si thin-film obtained by conventional methods such as solid phase crystallization (SPC) and laser-induced crystallization (LIC). As the AIC process occurs at the interface between a-Si and Al thin-films, there are various process and interface parameters. Also, it directly means that there is a certain parametric window to obtain p-Si of large grain size having uniform crystal orientation. In this article, we investigate the effect of the various process and interface parameters to obtain p-Si of large grain size and uniform crystal orientation from the literature review. We also suggest the potential use of the p-Si as a virtual substrate for the growth of various compound semiconductors in a form of low-dimension as well as thin-film as a way for their monolithic integration on Si.

Schottky barrier thin film transistors (SB-TFT) on polycrystalline silicon(poly-Si) are fabricated by platinum silicided source/drain for p-type SB-TFT. High quality poly-Si film were obtained by crystallizing the amorphous Si film with excimer laser annealing (ELA) or solid phase crystallization (SPC) method. The fabricated poly-Si SB-TFTs showed low leakage current level and a large on/off current ratio larger than $10^5$. Significant improvement of electrical characteristics were obtained by the additional forming gas annealing in 2% $H_2/N_2$ ambient, which is attributed to the termination of dangling bond at the poly-Si grain boundaries as well as the reduction of interface trap states at gate oxide/poly-Si channel.

Steam reforming of n-hexadecane, a major component of diesel over Ni-based hydrotalcite-like catalyst was carried out at $900^{\circ}C$ at atmospheric pressure with space velocity of $10,000h^{-1}$ and feed molar ratio of steam/carbon=3.0. Ni-based hydrotalcite catalyst was prepared by a solid phase crystallization (spc) method and characterized by $N_2$-physisorption, CO chemisorption, TPR., XRD, and TEM techniques. It was found that spc Ni/MgAl catalyst showed higher catalytic stability and inhibition of carbon formation than Ni/$\gamma-Al_2O_3$ catalyst under the tested conditions. The results suggest that the modified spc-Ni/MgAl catalyst after optimization may be applied for the SR reaction of diesel.

최근, poly-Si 박막은 저가의 박막소자응용을 위하여 사용되어 왔다. 그러나, 유리기판 위에서 일반적인 고상결정화(SPC) 방식으로 poly-Si 박막을 얻기는 불가능하다. 이러한 단점 때문에 유리와 같은 저가기판 위에 poly-Si을 결정화하는 연구가 최근 다양하게 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 급속열처리(RTA)를 이용하여 유연한 기판인 몰리브덴 기판 위에서 a-Si:H를 성장시킨 후 고온결정화에 대한 연구를 진행하였다 고온결정화된 poly-Si 박막은 150$\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 몰리브덴 기판 위에 성장되었으며 결정화 온도는 고 진공하에서 $750^{\circ}C$~$1050^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 결정화된 시료에 대하여 결정화도, 결정화 면방향, 표면구조 및 전기적 특성이 조사되었다. 결정화온도 $1050^{\circ}C$에서 3분간 결정화된 시료의 결정화도는 92%를 나타내고 있었다. 결정화된 poly-Si 박막으로 제작된 TFT 소자로부터 전계효과 이동도 67 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vs을 얻을 수 있었다.

The increase of repetition rate, the dithering of laser optics, and the extension of pulse duration time are major approaches in improving the picture quality of AMOLEDs fabricated by excimer laser crystallization (ELC). Advanced solid phase crystallization (ASPC) has been developed to improve the uniformity and the process cost. Even though the mobility of ASPC-TFT is lower than that of ELC-TFT, it is high enough to drive AMOLED pixels.

For high-performance TFT (Thin film transistor), poly-crystalline semiconductor thin film with low resistivity and high hall carrier mobility is necessary. But, conventional SPC (Solid phase crystallization) process has disadvantages in fabrication such as long annealing time in high temperature or using very expensive Excimer laser. On the contrary, MIC (Metal-induced crystallization) process enables semiconductor thin film crystallization at lower temperature in short annealing time. But, it has been known that the poly-crystalline semiconductor thin film fabricated by MIC methods, has low hall mobility due to the residual metals after crystallization process. In this study, Ni metal was shallow implanted using PIII&D (Plasma Immersion Ion Implantation & Deposition) technique instead of depositing Ni layer to reduce the Ni contamination after annealing. In addition, the effect of external magnetic field during annealing was studied to enhance the amorphous silicon thin film crystallization process. Various thin film analytical techniques such as XRD (X-Ray Diffraction), Raman spectroscopy, and XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), Hall mobility measurement system were used to investigate the structure and composition of silicon thin film samples.

고상결정화(SPC)로 제작된 다결정 박막의 전기적 특성 변화를 측정함으로서 다결정 박막 트랜지스터(poly-Si TFT's)에 대한 온도 변화 (25～1$25^{\circ}C$)의 영향을 연구하였다. 채널 길이가 각각 1.5, 10 $\mu\textrm{m}$인 SPC로 제작된 n-채널 poly-Si TFT는 온도 변화에도 불구하고 높은 전계 효과 이동도 ($\mu$$_{FE}$ : 1.5와 10$\mu\textrm{m}$에서 각각 $\geq$82 and $\geq$60$\textrm{cm}^2$/V-s), 낮은 문턱전압 (V$_{th}$ : 1.5 와 10$\mu\textrm{m}$에서 각각 $\leq$ 1.52 and $\leq$ 2.75V), 낮은 Subthreshold swing (S$_{t}$), 그리고 양호한 ON-OFF 특성이 나타났다. 따라서, SPC로 제작된 poly-Si TFT는 액정표시장치의 주변회로에 적용할 수 있다.

In this paper, Amorphous silicon on glass substrate was recrystallized to poly-crystalline silicon by solid phase crystallization (SPC) technology. The active region of thin film transistor (TFT) was fabricated by amorphous silicon. The output and transfer characteristics of thin film transistor with lightly doped drain (LDD) structure was measured and analyzed. As a results, analyzed TFTs reliability with LDD's length by various kinds argument such as sub-threshold swing coefficient, mobility and threshold voltages were evaluated. Stress effects in TFT were able to improve to the characteristics of turn-on current and hot carrier effects by LDD's length variations.
