In the electronic components and devices fabrication, thin film resistors with low TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance) and high precision have been used over 3 GHz microwave in recent years. Ni-Cr alloys thin films resistors is one of the most commonly used resistive materials because it has low TCR and highly stable resistance. In this work, we fabricated thin film resistors using Evanohm alloys target(72Ni-20Cr-3Al-4Mn-Si) of s-type with excellent resistors properties by RF-sputtering. Also we reported best deposited conditions of thin film resistors for microwave to observe microstructure and electronic properties of thin film according to deposited conditions(between target and substrate, power supply)

Thermal stability of the electroless deposited Cu thin film was investigated. Cu/TaN/Si multilayer was fabricated by electroless-depositing Cu thin layer on TaN diffusion barrier layer which was deposited by MOCVD on the Si substrate, and was annealed in $H_2$ ambient to investigate the microstructure of Cu film with a post heat-treatment. Cu thin film with good adhesion was successfully deposited on the surface of the TaN film by electroless deposition with a proper activation treatment and solution control. Microstructural property of the electroless-deposited Cu layer was improved by a post-annealing in the reduced atmosphere of $H_2$ gas up to $600^{\circ}C$. Thermal stability of Cu/TaN/Si system was maintained up to $600^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature, but the intermediate compounds of Cu-Si were formed above $650^{\circ}C$ because Cu element passed through the TaN layer. On the other hand, thermal stability of the Cu/TaN/Si system in Ar ambient was maintained below $550^{\circ}C$ annealing temperature due to the minimal impurity of $O_2$ in Ar gas.

Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of CoCr-based magnetic thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media were influenced on preparing conditions. In these, there is that substrate temperature was parameter that increases perpendicular coercivity of CoCrTa magnetic layer using recording layer. While preparation of CoCr-based doublelayer, by optimizing substrate temperature, we expect to increase perpendicular anisotropy of CoCr magnetic layer and prepare ferromagnetic recording layer with a good quality by epitaxial growth. CoCrTa/Si doublelayer showed a good dispersion angle of c-axis orientation $\Delta\theta_{50}$ caused by inserting amorphous Si underlayer which prepared at underlayer substrate temperature 250C. Perpendicular coercivity was constant, in-plane coercivity was controlled a low value about 200Oe. This result implied that Si underlayer could restrain growth of initial layer of CoCrTa thin film, which showed bad magnetic properties effectively without participating magnetization patterns of magnetic layer. In case of CoCrTa/Si that prepared with ultra thin underlayer, crystalline orientation of CoCrTa was improved rather underlayer thickness 1nm, it was expected that amorphous Si layer played a important role in not only underlayer but also seed layer.

In this study, the effect of a long post-deposition thermal annealing(600 and 1000 $^{\circ}C$) on the surface acoustic wave (SAW) properties of polycrystalline (poly) aluminum-nitride (AlN) thin films grown on a 3C-SiC buffer layer was investigates. The poly-AlN thin films with a (0002) preferred orientation were deposited on the substrates by using a pulsed reactive magnetron sputtering system. Experimental results show that the texture degree of AlN thin film was reduced along the increase in annealing temperature, which caused the decrease in the electromechanical coupling coefficient ($k^2$). The SAW velocity also was decreased slightly by the increase in root mean square (RMS) roughness over annealing temperature. However, the residual stress in films almost was not affect by thermal annealing process due to small lattice mismatch different and similar coefficient temperature expansion (CTE) between AlN and 3C-SiC. After the AlN film annealed at 1000 $^{\circ}C$, the insertion loss of an $IDT/AlN/3C-SiC/SiO_2/Si$ structure (-16.44 dB) was reduced by 8.79 dB in comparison with that of the as-deposited film (-25.23 dB). The improvement in the insertion loss of the film was fined according to the decrease in the grain size. The characteristics of AlN thin films were also evaluated using Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) spectra and X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and atomic force microscopy (AFM) images.

Recently, semiconducting organic materials have been spotlighted as next-generation electronic materials based on their tunable electrical and optical properties, low-cost process, and flexibility. However, typical organic semiconductor materials are vulnerable to moisture and oxygen. Therefore, an encapsulation layer is essential for application of electronic devices. In this study, SiN_x thin films deposited at process temperatures below 150 ℃ by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) were characterized for application as an encapsulation layer on organic devices. A single structured SiN_x thin film was optimized as an organic light-emitting diode (OLED) encapsulation layer at process temperature of 80 ℃. The optimized SiN_x film exhibited excellent water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of less than 5 × 10^-5 g/㎡·day and transmittance of over 87.3% on the visible region with thickness of 1 ㎛. Application of the SiN_x thin film on the top-emitting OLED showed that the PECVD process did not degrade the electrical properties of the device, and the OLED with SiN_x exhibited improved operating lifetime

열처리 온도에 따른 Au 결정립 크기의 변화와 표면 거칠기 및 전기전도도를 연구하기 위해 dc 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 사용하여 Si(111) 또는 Si(100) 기판위에 Au (30nm) 와 Ta (5 nm)/Au (30 nm) 를 증착하였다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 시료의결정립 크기가 증가하였고, 박막 표면 거칠기 또한 증가함을 확인하였다. Si/Au보다Si/Ta/Au구조에서 결정립 크기가 증가하였고 표면거칠기는 감소되었으며 Si(111)기판보다 Si(100) 기판위의 Ta/Au구조에서 전기 저항이 감소되었다. Si(100)/Au구조에 5 nm 두께의 Ta의 buffer layer를 삽입하여 표면 거칠기 정도를 낮춤과 동시에 열처리 온도를 적절히 조절하여 결정립 크기를 증가시킴으로서 전도성이우수한 양질의 Au 박막을 얻을 수 있었다.

The capability for application of rf magnetron sputterred and post annealed BaTiO$_{3}$ thin films in dielectrics AC drived TFELD(thin film electroluminescent device) was investigated. The dielectric constant of the thin films slightly increased up to about 25 with increase fothe post annealing temperature in the range of 210$^{\circ}C$-480$^{\circ}C$. The dielectric loss was about 0.005-0.01 except for the high frequency range above 100kHz and nearly independent on post annealing temperature. The BaTiO$_{3}$ thin film used for TFELD was annealed at 480.deg. C and Si$_{3}$N$_{4}$ thin film was inserted between BaTiO$_{3}$, lower dielecrics and ZnS:Mn, phosphor layer for stable driving of the device and for fear of interdiffusion. Regardless of the frequency of the applied sine wave voltage, the threshold voltage of the prepared TFELD was 65volt and saturated brightness was about 3000cd/m$^{2}$ at 130volt(2kHz sine wave), 65volt above V$_{TH}$.

Film characteristics of thin ONO dielectric layers for MONOS(metal-oxide-nitride-oxide-semiconductor) EEPRM was investigated by AES and AFM. Second derivative spectra of AES Si LVV overlapping peak provided useful information for chemical state analysis of superthin film. The ONO films with dimension of tunneling oxide 24${\AA}$, nitride 33${\AA}$, and blocking oxide 40${\AA}$ were fabricated. During deposition of the LPCVD nitride films on tunneling oxide, this thin oxide was nitrized. When the blocking oxide were deposited on the nitride film, the oxygen not only oxidized the nitride surface, but diffused through the nitride. The results of ONO film analysis exhibits that it is made up of SiO$_2$(blocking oxide)/O-rich SiON(interface/N-rich SiON(nitride)/-rich SiON(interface)/N-rich SiON(nitride)/O-rich SiON(tunneling oxide).

Direct plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) are widely used for $SiO_2$ and SiON thin film process in current semiconductor industry. However, this exhibits poor step coverage for three-dimensional device structure due directionality of plasma species as well as plasma damage on the substrate. In this study, to overcome this issue, low temperature (< $300^{\circ}C$) $SiO_2$ and SiON thin film processes were studied using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) type remote PEALD with various reactant gases such as $O_2$, $H_2O$, $N_2$ and $NH_3$. It was confirmed that the interfacial properties such as fixed charge density and charge trapping behavior of thin films were considerably improved by hydrogen species in $H_2O$ and $NH_3$ plasma compared to the films grown with $O_2$ and $N_2$ plasma. Furthermore, the leakage current density of the thin films was suppressed for same reason.
