We studied indium-doped zinc oxide (IZO) film grown by atomic layer deposition (ALD) as transparent conductive oxide (TCO). A variety of TCO layer, such as ZnO:Al (AZO), InSnO2(ITO), Zn (O,S) etc, has been grown by various method, such as ALD, chemical vapor deposition (CVD), sputtering, laser ablation, sol-gel technique, etc. Among many deposition methods, ALD has various advantages such as uniformity of film thickness, film composition, conformality, and low temperature deposition, as compared with other techniques. In this study, we deposited indium-doped zinc oxide thin films using diethyl[bis(trimethylsilyl)amido]indium [Et2InN(TMS)2] as indium precursor, DEZn as zinc precursor and H2O as oxidant for ALD and investigated the optical and electrical properties of IZO films. As an alternative, this liquid In precursor would has several advantages in indium oxide thin-film processes by ALD, especially for low resistance indium oxide thin film and high deposition rate as compared to InCp, InCl3, TMIn precursors etc. We found out that Indium oxide films grown by Et2InN(TMS)2 and H2O precursor show ALD growth mode and ALD growth window. We also found out the different growth rate of Indium oxide as the substrate and investigated the effect of the substrate on Indium oxide growth.

Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) thin film was coated on aluminosilicate glass at $450^{\circ}C$ by spray pyrolysis method. In the range of 0-2.7 molar ratio of F/Sn, the variations of electrical conductivity and visible light transmission were investigated. At the F/Sn ratio of 1.765, the film showed the lowest electrical resistivity value of $3.0{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}\;cm$, the highest carrier concentration of $2.404{\times}10^{21}/cm^3$, and about $8\;cm^2/V{\cdot}sec$ of electronic mobility. The FTO film showed a preferred orientation of (200) plane parallel to the substrate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis results indicated that the contents of $Sn^{4+}-O$ bonding are the highest at 1.765 of F/Sn molar ratio.

APCVD에 의한 $SnO_2(:F)$ 박막 형성시 HF와 $H_2O$량의 변화에 따른 증착 조건이 전기적, 광학적 특성 그리고 textured $SnO_2(:F)$ 박막의 표면형상에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. HF의 bubbling량이 0.9 slm 이상일 경우에는 전자농도(electron concentration)가 $3{\Times}10^{20}/cm^3$에 도달 하였으며, 비저항값은 $7{\Times}10^4~9{\Times}10^4{Omega}cm$ 범위이었고, mobility 값은 $18~25 cm^{-2}/V.sec$이었다. 결정 grain의 형태는$H_2O$를 첨가시키지 않으며 증착시킨 경우 끝이 뾰족한 예각을 가진 pyramid 형태였으며, $H_2O$를 첨가시키며 증착시킨 경우에는 끝이 둥근 hemispherical 형이었다.

Transparent conducting $SnO_2$-based thin films have been coated on float substrates such as fused quartz, and ceramic fiber cloths such as the Nexel and E-glass cloth from tin alkoxides by the sol-gel technique. Also, thin films of alternating layers of $SnO_2$ and $SiO_2$ have been fabricated by dip coating. The sheet resistance and average visible transmittance of the films were investigated in the aspect of the applications as transparent electrodes such as liquid crystal displays, photo-detectors and solar cells. The Nextel and E-glass cloths coated with antimony-doped tin oxide (ATO) had sheet resistance of as low as $20 \;ohm/{\Box}$ and $120ohm/\;{\Box}$, respectively. The promotion effects of additives as $La_2O_3$ and Pt on the ethanol gas sensing properties of the films were investigated in the aspects of the applications as an alcohol sensor and a breath alcohol checker. Possible evidence of quantum well effects in the oxide multilayers of $SnO_2$ and $SiO_2$ was investigated.

Misfueling accidents significantly damage the engines of both gasoline and diesel vehicles, and should be avoided by rapid and accurate fuel discrimination. Gasoline fuel contains bioethanol. Thus, the detection of ethanol vapor produced by gasoline can be used to distinguish between gasoline and diesel. In the present study, Pt-doped $SnO_2$ hollow nanospheres, Mg-doped $In_2O_3$ hollow microspheres, and Pt-doped ZnO nanostructures have been used as gas sensors to discriminate between gasoline and diesel fuels. All three sensors are able to detect and discriminate between gases evaporating from gasoline and diesel. Among the sensors, the Mg-doped $In_2O_3$ hollow microspheres show a significant gas response (resistance ratio = 4.97) quickly (~3 s) after exposure to gasoline-evaporated gas at $225^{\circ}C$, but did not show any substantial response to diesel-evaporated gas. This demonstrates that gasoline and diesel fuels can be discriminated using small and cost-effective oxide semiconductor gas sensors.

Iron-doped $Sn_{1-x}Fe_xO_2$ (x = 0.0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2, 0.33) thin films on Si(100) substrates and powders were prepared by a chemical solution process. The x-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the $Sn_{1-x}Fe_xO_2$ thin films and powders showed a polycrystalline rutile tetragonal structure. Thermo gravimetric (TG) - differential thermal analysis (DTA) showed the final weight loss above $430{^{\circ}C}$ for all powder samples. According to XRD Rietveld refinement of the powders, the lattice parameters and unit cell volume decreased with increasing Fe content. The magnetic properties were characterized using a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. The thin film samples with x = 0.1 and 0.2 showed paramagnetic properties but thin films with x = 0.33 exhibited ferromagnetic properties at room temperature. Mossbauer studies revealed the $Fe^{3+}$ valence state in the samples. The ferromagnetism in the samples can be interpreted in terms of the direct ferromagnetic coupling of ferric ions via an electron trapped in a bridging oxygen deficiency, which can be explained using the F-center exchange model.

Transparent conductive metal oxide films of $In_{2-x}Sn_xO_3$ (ITiO) and $In_{2-x}Sn_xO_3$ (ITO) were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering at relatively low substrate temperature (~$300^{\circ}C$) and at high rate (~10nm/min). Electrical and optical properties of the films were investigated as well as film structure and morphology, as it is compared with the commercial F:$SnO_2$ (FTO) glass. Near infrared ray transmittance of ITiO is the highest for wavelengths over 1000nm, which can increase dye sensitized compared to ITiO and FTO. Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) were fabricated using the ITiO, ITO and FTO. Photoconversion efficiency ($\eta$) of DSC using ITiO is 5.5%, whereas 5.0% is obtained from DSC with ITO, both at 100mW/$cm^2$ light intensity.

($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$의 소결온도를 저하시키고 품질계수 향상의 목적으로 첨가한 $V_2O_5$가 다른 donor형태의 화합물과 달리 품질계수의 저하를 가져오는 원인을 $Ta_2O_5$가 첨가된 ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$와 미세 구조변화, 전기전도도, 산화상태의 관점에서 비교 분석하였다. 일반적으로 donor형태의 화합물의 첨가는 ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$의 산소공공의 농도를 감소시켜 품질계수의 증가를 가져오는 것으로 알려져 있다. $V_2O_5$의 첨가의 경우는 액상소결에 의한 결정입계상 존재, 섬유상 형태의 $V_2O_5-TiO_2$rich 이차상 형성 및 Vanadium 이온의 산화상태 불안정에서 기인된 산소공공의 농도 증가가 복합적으로 ($Zr_{0.8}, Sn_{0.2})TiO_4$의 품질계수 저하 요인으로 작용하였다.

Fluorine-doped $SnO_2\;(SnO_2:F)$ films were prepared in ordinary atmosphere on borosilicate glass substrates using pyrosol deposition method starting from the solutions composed of $SnCl_4-5H_2O-NH_4F-CH_3OH-H_2O-HCl$ in an attempt to develop transparent conductors for use in amorphous silicon (a-Si) solar cello. The deposition rate of films increased with the increase in the content of $H_2O$, whereas it decreased with increasing the content of $CH_3OH$. When air was used as the carrier gas, the lowest electrical resistivity was obtained from a solution having $CH_3OH/H_2O$ mol ratio of about $2{\sim}3$ in the solution. The use of $N_2$ of the same flow rate as the carrier gab resulted always in the high resistive films, but the resistivity of the films decreased continuously with the increase in the content of $H_2O$. The surface morphology and preferred orientation of films were also affected by the solvent composition and the content of HCl in the solution. The room-temperature resistance of the films were fairly stable after heat-treatments up to $600^{\circ}C$.

In this paper, $0.10Pb(Sb_{1/2}Sn_{1/2})O_3-0.25PbTiO_3-0.65PbZrO_3$ ceramics were fabricated by the mixed-oxide method. The sintering temperature and time were $1230^{\circ}C$ and 2(hr), respectively. The structural, dielectric and pyroelectric properties with addition of $Y_2O_3$ were studied. The crystal structure of a specimen was rhombohedral. As a result of SEM, the average grain size were decreased with increasing the contents of $Y_2O_3$. Relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the specimen doped with 0.2wt% $Y_2O_3$ were 597 and 0.022, respectively. Remanent polarization and coercive field of the specimen doped with 0.4wt% $Y_2O_3$ were $8.5[{\mu}C/cm^2]$ and 10.2[kV/cm], respectively.
