Tb-doped lead zirconate titanate(Pb(Zr$\_$0.6/,Ti$\_$0.4/)O$_3$; PZT) thin films on Pt(111)/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si(100) substrates were fabricated by the sol-gel method. The effect on the structural and electrical properties of films measured according to Tb content. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties of Tb-doped PZT thin films were altered significantly by Tb-doping. The PZT thin film with higher dielectric constant and improved leakage current characteristic was obtained by adding 0.3 mol% Tb. The relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss of the 0.3 mol% Tb-doped PZT thin film were 1611 and 0.024, respectively. Typical value of the swichable remanent poaraization(2Pr) and the coercive filed of the PZT film capacitor for 0.3 mol% Tb-doped were 61.4 ${\mu}$C/cm$^2$ and 61.9 kV/cm, respectively. Tb-doped PZT thin films showed improved fatigue characteristics comparing to the undoped PZT thin film.

For the air-fuel ratio control in a fuel injection SI engine, the Jump-Ramp control algorithm has been widely adopted by using the on/off type oxygen sensor. But the Jump-Ramp control method has limitation on treating the frequency and amplitude of the air-fuel ratio oscillation. This study suggests another feedback control logic named modulated fuel feedback control, which has a concept of pre-tuned air-fuel ratio oscillation. In the modulation method, the oxygen sensor output is not treated as on/off signal but as analog signal for feedback. By using the modulation method, the frequency and the amplitude of air-fuel ratio oscillation can be adjustable to some extent for improving the conversion efficiency of the Three-Way Catalyst. The result shows that the performance of the modulation method is better than that Jump-Ramp control method in reducing the amplitude of the air-fuel ratio oscillation as well as in increasing the frequency of the air-fuel ratio oscillation.

본 연구에서는 BPSG(borophosphosilicate glass)/SiO2/Si 기판상에 5000$\AA$의 구리박막을 화학증착한 후 Ar 분위기하 250-55$0^{\circ}C$, 5-90초 급속열처리하여 열처리 전후의 결정구조, 면저항, 미세구조의 박막특성 변화를 분석하였다. 후열처리된 구리박막에서는 결정성 및 (111) 배향의개선과 함께 결정립 성장이 확인되었으나, 구리의 표면산화반응과 BPSG 내로의 급속한 확산에 의해 전기적 특성의 개선은 미미하였다. 그리고 열처리 박막내에는 구리 실리사이드상의 형성이 발견되지 않았으며, 25$0^{\circ}C$/90초의 저온 장시간 또는 55$0^{\circ}C$/20초의 고온 단시간 조건에서 전형적으로 나타나는 Cu2O 상이 시편의 전기비저항 증가와 표면열화에 직접적으로 영향을 미쳤다. 또한, 이들 결과로부터 급속열처리법에 의한 Cu/BPSG 열처리의 공정범위를 규명할 수 있었다.

SrTi $O_3$(001) 단결정 기판 위에 졸-겔 스핀코팅으로 $SrBi_2(Ta,Nb)_2O_9$ 박막을 도포하고 그 결정화 과정을 고온 X-선 회절분석 (HTXRD)으로 추적하면서 Pt(111)/Ti/ $SiO_2$/Si 위에 성장한 박막과 비교하였다. SrTi $O_3$(001) 단결정 기판 위에 도포된 $SrBi_2Nb_2O_{9}$ 박막은 fluorite-like phase와 같은 transient phase를 거치지 않고 곧바로 순수한 $SrBi_2Nb_2O_9$ 상으로 결정화가 시작되었으며 결정화가 시작되는 온도인 ${\sim}540^{\circ}C$부터 c축 배향성장하였다. 또한 $SrB i_2(Ta,Nb)_2O_9$ 박막은 Ta/Nb 비에 관계없이 $SrTiO_3$(001) 위에서 모두 $(00{\ell})$로 배향되었으며, 코팅 횟수가 늘어나 필름의 두께가 증가함에 따라 c축 배향성은 미세한 감소를 보였다. $SrBi_2Nb_2O_9/SrTiO_3$단면을 TEM으로 관찰한 결과 $SrBi_2Nb_2O_9$은 대체로 불규칙한 크기의 다결정체로 되어 있었으나 계면 부근에서는 [001]$_{SBN}$//[001]$_{SrTi}$ $O_3$/, [100]$_{SBN}$//[100]$_{SrTi}$ $O_3$/라는 결정학적 관계를 가지며 에피탁샬 성장했음을 알 수 있었다.있었다.

A promising capacitor, which has conformable step coverage and good uniformity of thickness and composition, is needed to manufacture high-density non-volatile FeRAM capacitors with a stacked cell structure. In this study, ferroelectric $Bi_{3.61}Nd_{0.39}Ti_3O_{12}$ (BNdT) thin films were prepared on $Pt(111)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by the liquid delivery system MOCVD method. In these experiments, $Bi(ph)_{3}$, $Nd(TMHD)\_{3}$ and $Ti(O^iPr)_{2}(TMHD)_{2}$ were used as the precursors and were dissolved in n-butyl acetate. The BNdT thin films were deposited at a substrate temperature and reactor pressure of approximately $600^{\circ}C$ and 4.8 Torr, respectively. The microstructure of the layered perovskite phase was observed by XRD and SEM. The remanent polarization value (2Pr) of the BNdT thin film was $31.67\;{\mu}C/cm^{2}$ at an applied voltage of 5 V.

Gadolinium-substituted bismuth titanate, $Bi_{3.3}Gd_{0.7}Ti_{3}O_{12}$, thin films were successfully fabricated on Pt(111)/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si(100) substrates by a MOCVD process. Fabricated BGT thin films were found to be random oriental ions, which were confirmed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscope analysis. The remanent polarization value ($2P_r$) of the BGT thin film annealed at $720^{\circ}C$ was $45.13{\mu}C/cm^2$, at an applied voltage of 5 V. The BGT thin film exhibits a good fatigue resistance up to $1{\times}10^{11}$ switching cycles at a frequency of 1 MHz with applied voltage of 5 V. These results indicate that the randomly oriented BGT thin film is a promising candidate among ferroelectric materials useful in lead-free nonvolatile ferroelectric random access memory applications.

The atomic layer deposition (ALD) of $ZrO_2$ was conducted in ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions. The surface was exposed to $ZrCl_4$ and $H_2O$ in sequence and the surface species produced after each step were identified in situ with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). $ZrCl_4$ is molecularly adsorbed at 140 K on the $SiO_2$/Si(111) surface covered with OH groups. When the surface is heated to 300 K, $ZrCl_4$ loses two Cl atoms to produce $ZrCl_2$ species. Remaining Cl atoms of $ZrCl_2$ species can be completely removed by exposing the surface to $H_2O$ at 300 K followed by heating to 600 K. The layer-by-layer deposition of $ZrO_2$ was successfully accomplished by repeated cycles of $ZrCl_4$ dosing and $H_2O$ treatment.

Metallurgical-grade polycrystalline silicon was directionally solidified at growth rates of $0.2{\sim}1.0mm/min$ by using split type, reusable graphite molds which were coated with $Si_3N_4$ powder. The resultant grain sizes of the silicon ingots and the shapes of the solid/liquid(S/L) interfaces were investigated. X-ray diffraction was used to determine the preferred orientation in each of the silicon ingots. The impurity content of the silicon was analyzed and the resistivities of the ingots were measured. During the growth of an ingot, the shape of the S/L interface was concave to the silicon melt, and the resistivity decreased. The presence of Al which can be acting as a carrier, is thought to be the main factor causing such a decrease in resistivity. When a growth rate of 0.2㎜/min was used, the preferred orientation was found to be (111).

PLZT thin films were deposited on platinized silicon (Pt/$TiSiO_2$/Si) substrate by RF magnetron sputtering. A $TiO_2$ buffer layer was fabricated, prior to deposition of PLZT films. the layer was strongly affected the crystallographic orientation of the PLZT films. X-ray diffraction was performed on the films to study the crystallization of the films as various substrate temperatures (Ts). According to increasing Ts, preferred orientation of films was changed (110) plane to (111) plane. The ferroelectric, dielectric and electrical properties of the films were also investigated in detail as increased substrate temperatures. The PLZT films deposited at $400^{\circ}C$ showed good ferroelectric properties with the remnant polarization of $15.8{\mu}C/cm^2$ and leakage current of $5.4{\times}10^{-9}\;A/cm^2$.
