We investigated electric and dielectric properties of MIM device using Maleate Copolymer LB films. The thickness of maleate copolymer LB film by ellipsometry measurements and X-ray diffraction pattern was about 27~30[ ]. The maleate copolymer 13 film have the property of insulator like organic ultra-thin film. The electric conduction was Schottky current measured by I-V characteristics, and the conductivity was 10$^{-15}$ ~10$^{-14}$ [S/cm]. Dielectric constant was about 5.0~6.0 by various measurement: I-V, frequency-depenent dielectric properties. Schottky barrier was about 0.9 ~1.0(eV). By relation between log I and 1/T, activation energy baa 0.74(eV). Frequency-depenent dielectric properties wart orientational polarization by the dipole.

In this paper in order to evaluat quantitavely the formation mechanism of space charge and its effects on the conduction characteristics in LDPE we have carried out the numerical analysis on the basis of experimental results of space charge distribution cathode field and current with time which had been simultaneously measured at applied field of 50kV/mm and room temperature. As the models for numerical analysis we employ the Richarson-Schottky theory for charge injection from electrode into LDPE and the band-tail conduction at crystalline regions and the hopping conduction by traps which mainly exist at the interface regions of crystalline-amorphous region for charge transport in LDPE. Futhermore in order to investigate the influence of physical parameters on the time characteristcs of space charge distribution and measured current we have changed the values of trap density activation energies for charge injection and transport and have analyzed their effects.

Generally. the Ohmic's law is an important factor to increase the conductivity in a micro device. So it is also known that the Ohmic contact in a semiconductor device is import. The PN junction as a structure of semiconductor involves the depletion layer, and this depletion layer induces the non linear electrical properties and also makes the Schottky contact as an intrinsic characteristics of semiconductor. To research the conduction effect of insulators in the semiconductor device, $SiO_2$ thin film and $V_2O_5/SiO_2$ thin film were researched by using the current-voltage system. In the nano electro-magnetic system, the $SiO_2$ thin film as a insulator had the non linear Schottky contact, and the as deposited $V_2O_5$ thin film had the linear Ohmic contact owing to the $SiO_2$ thin film with superior insulator's properties, which decreases the leakage current. In the positive voltage, the capacitance of $SiO_2$ thin film was very low, but that of $V_2O_5$ thin film increased with increasing the voltage. In the normal electric field system, it was confirmed that the conductivity of $V_2O_5$ thin film was increased by the effect of $SiO_2$ thin film. It was confirmed that the Schottky contact of semiconductors enhanced the performance of electrical properties to increased the conductivity.

(Ba, Sr)TiO3 (BST)[1-3] 박막은 유전상수가 크고 고주파에서도 유전특성 저하가 적기 때문에 ULSI DRAM(Dynamic Random Access Memory)에 응용 가능한 물질로 최근 각광을 받고 있다. 하지만, 아직 BST 박막을 DRSM에 바로 적용하기 위해선 몇 가지 문제점이 있다. 그 중 누설전류 문제는 디바이스 응용시 매우 중요한 요소이다. 특히, DRAM에서 refresh time와 직접적인 관련이 있어 디바이스 내의 신뢰도 및 전력소모를 결정하는 주된 인자가 된다. 지금까지, BST 박막의 인가전업, 온도, 그리고 전극물질에 따른 누설전류 현상들이 고찰되었고, 이에 관한 많은 전도기구 모델들이 제시되었다. Schottky emission, Poole-Frenkel emission, space charge limited conduction 등이 그 대표적인 예이다. 하지만 아쉽게도 BST 박막의 정확한 누설 전류 전도 기구를 완전히 설명하는데는 아직 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 제작된 BST 커패시터 내의 기본적인 전기적 성질을 조사하고, 정확한 누설전류 기구 규명에 초점을 두고자 한다. 이를 위해 기존의 여러 기구들과 비교 분석할 것이다. 하부전극으로 사용하기 위해 스퍼터링 방법으로 p-Si(100) 기판위에 RuO2 박막을 약 120nm 증착하였다. 증착전의 chamberso의 초기압력은 5$\times$10-6 Torr이하의 압력으로 유지시켰다. Ar/O2의 비는 이전 실험에서 최적화된 9/1로 하였다. BST 박막 증착 시 5분간 pre-sputtering을 실시한 후 하부전극 기판위에 BST 박막을 증착하였다. 증착이 끝난 후 시편을 상온까지 냉각시킨 후 꺼내었다. 전기적 특성을 측정하기 상부전극으로 RuO2와 Al 박막을 각각 상온에서 100nm 증착하였다. 이때 hole mask를 이용하여 반경이 140um인 원형의 상부전극을 증착하였다. BST 박막의 증착온도가 증가하고 Ar/O2 비가 감소할수록 제작된 BST-커패시터의 전기적 성질이 우수하였다. 증착온도 $600^{\circ}C$, ASr/O2=5/5에서 증착된 막의 누설전류는 4.56$\times$10-8 A/cm2, 유전상수는 600 정도의 값을 나타내었다. 인가전압에 따른 BST 커패시터의 transition-current는 Curie-von Schweider 모델을 따랐다. BST 박막의 누설전류 전도기구는 기존의 Schottky 모델이 아니라 modified-Schottky 무델로 잘 설명되었다. Modified-Schottky 모델을 통해 BST 박막의 광학적 유전율 $\varepsilon$$\infty$=4.9, 이동도 $\mu$=0.019 cm2/V-s, 장벽 높이 $\psi$b=0.79 eV를 구하였다.

We proposed amorphous GeSe-based ReRAM device of metal-insulator-metal (M-I-M) structure. The operation characteristics of memory device occured unipolar switching characteristics. By introducing the concepts of valance-alternation-pairs (VAPs) and chalcogen vacancies, the unipolar resistive switching operation had been explained. In addition, the current transport behavior were analyzed with space charge effect of VAPs, Schottky emission in metal/GeSe interface and P-F emission by GeSe bulk trap in mind. The GeSe ReRAM device of M-I-M structure indicated the stable memory switching characteristics. Furthermore, excellent stability, endurance and retention characteristics were also verified.

Stoichiometric, uniform, amorphous ZrO$_2$ films with an equivalent oxide thickness of ∼1.5nm and a dielectric constant of ∼18 were deposited by an atomic layer controlled deposition process on silicon for potential application in meta-oxide-semiconductor(MOS) devices. The conduction mechanism is identified as Schottky emission at low electric fields and as Poole-Frenkel emission at high electric fields. the MOS devices showed low leakage current, small hysteresis(〈50mV), and low interface state density(∼2*10e11/cm2eV). Microdiffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy showed a localized monoclinic phase of ${\alpha}$-ZrO$_2$ and an amorphous interfacial ZrSi$\_$x/O$\_$y/ layer which has a correspondign dielectric constant of 11

In this paper, the used specimen composition was added basic additives ($Bi_2O_3\;lmol%$, $Sb_2O_3\;lmol%$, CoO 0.5 mol%, MnO 0.5mol%) to ZnO powder, and $TiO_2$ (1,2,3,4 mol%) to the above basic composition. It appears that there are four regions of conduction current depended upon the strength of the applied electric field ; Ohimic region, Poole-Frenkel region, Schottky region and Tunneling region. Increasing of $TiO_2mol%$, the breakdown voltages of ZnO ceramic varistors are decreased. The decrease of breakdown voltages was explained with the decrease of potential barrier height. Moreover, V-I characteristics with temperature dependence are decreased with increasing of $TiO_2mol%$.

Ba$_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$타겟을 이용 Pt/Ti/SiO/Si 기판 위에 R.F magnetron sputtering 방법으로 BST 박막을 증착하여 다양한 열처리 조건에 따른 BST 박막의 전기적 성질(정전용량, 누설전류)에 대해 박막의 결정성과 미세구조의 연관성에 대하여 연구하였다. BST 박막의 유전상수는 grain size에 영향 받으며, 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 유전상수는 증가함을 보였고 온도에 따른 누설전류는 저전압 영역에서는 Hopping conduction, 고전압 영역에서는 Schottky conduction mechanism을 따르는 것으로 나타났다.

A photodiode capable of obtaining a sufficient photo/dark current ratio at both a forward bias state and a reverse bias state is proposed. The photodiode includes a glass substrate, an aluminum film formed as a lower electrode over the glass substrate, an alumina film formed as a schottky barrier over the aluminum film, a hydrogenated amorphous silicon film formed as a photo conduction layer over a portion of the alumina film, and a transparent conduction film formed as an upper electrode over the hydro-generated amorphous silicon film. Growth of high quality alumina($Al_{2}O_{3}$) film using anodizing technology is proposed and analyzed by experiment. We have obtained the film with a superior characteristics

The purpose of this thesis is to fabricate the hexamethyldisiloxane thin film by plasma polymerization method, and to investigate the electric conduction characteristics of plasma polymerized thin film. Current density was measured in being changed annealing temperature(room temperature${\sim}125[^{\circ}C]$) and electric field intensity($10^5{\sim}1.2{\times}10^6$[V/cm]). The current density of thin films fabricated at discharge power of $30{\sim}90$[W] showed $1.3{\times}10^{-11}{\sim}3.1{\times}10^{-12}[A/cm^2]$ after 10 minutes of permission of electric field. The current density increased gradually with increasing of annealing temperature and electric field intensity. The electric conduction type of thin films fabricated in discharge power of 90[W] agreed with Schottky type.
