[ $SnO_2$ ] thin films have been deposited on the pyrex glasses and silicon wafers by CVD method. Tin oxide films had a good transmittance above 80% in the visible region and the lowest sheet resistance at $520^{\circ}C$. When the ratio of $SbCl_3$ was 2wt%. The optimum conditions were obtained at the oxidation time of 3 minutes in the case that Voc and Jsc were 0.40V and $33.5mA/cm^2$ respectively and the corresponding conversion efficiency was 6.07%.

Hydrogen gas (H₂) which is odorless, colorless is attracting attention as a renewable energy source in varions applications but its leakage can lead to disastrous disasters, such as inflammable, explosive, and narcotic disasters at high concentrations. Therefore, it is necessary to develop H₂ gas sensor with high performance. In this paper, we confirmed that H₂ gas detection ability of SnO₂ based H₂ gas sensor along with thermal treatment effect of SnO₂. Proposed SnO₂ based H₂ gas sensor is fabricated by MEMS technologies such as photolithgraphy, sputtering and lift-off process, etc. Deposited SnO₂ thin films are thermally treated in various thermal treatement temperature in range of 500-900 ℃ and their H₂ gas detection ability is estimatied by measuring output current of H₂ gas sensor. Based on experimental results, fabricated H₂ gas sensor with SnO₂ thin film which is thermally treated at 700 ℃ has a superior H₂ gas detection ability, and it can be expected to utilize at the practical applications.

$SnO_2$ 박막의 결정성과 화학적인 결합구조의 변화가 전기적인 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 증착한 $SnO_2$은 결정질 특성을 가지며 열처리온도가 증가함에 따라 비정질 특성으로 변하였으며, 산소공공의 함량변화는 열처리 온도가 증가할수록 증가하였다가 감소하였다. 산소공공이 증가하면 결정성이 증가하다가 산소공공이 감소하기 시작하면 비정질특성이 우세하게 나타났다. 이러한 결정성에서 비정질로 변화하는 특성의 차이는 PL 분석에 의한 광학적 특성에서 뚜렷하게 나타났으며, 100도와 150도 열처리를 한 박막에서 가장 큰 차이가 나는 것을 보여주었다. XRD 분석보다는 $SnO_2$ 결정구조의 변화에 대하여 광학적인 특성변화에서 더 뚜렷하게 나타난 이유는 케리어의 이온화에 의한 광학적 여기량이 150도 열처리에서 크게 증가하였기 때문이며, 더 높은 온도에서는 광학적 여기량이 감소한 이유는 산소공공에 의한 케리어가 많지 않았기 때문으로 확인할 수 있다.

Amorphous zinc tin oxide (ZTO) thin films are being widely studied for a variety electronic applications such as the transparent conducting oxide (TCO) in the field of photoelectric elements and thin film transistors (TFTs). Thin film transistors (TFTs) with transparent amorphous oxide semiconductors (TAOS) represent a major advance in the field of thin film electronics. Examples of TAOS materials include zinc tin oxide (ZTO), indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO), indium zinc oxide, and indium zinc tin oxide. Among them, ZTO has good optical and electrical properties (high transmittance and larger than 3eV band gap energy). Furthermore ZTO does not contain indium or gallium and is relatively inexpensive and non-toxic. In this study, ZTO thin films were formed by UHV RF magnetron co-sputter deposition on silicon substrates and sapphires. The films were deposited from ZnO and SnO2 target in an RF argon and oxygen plasma. The deposition condition of ZTO thin films were controlled by RF power and post anneal temperature using rapid thermal annealing (RTA). The deposited and annealed films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscope (AFM), ultraviolet and visible light (UV-VIS) spectrophotometer.

The transparent electrode properties of ITO films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering with process pressure were investigated. The ITO thin films was deposited on a glass substrate using a target with 3in diameter sintered at a ratio of $In_2O_3$ : $SnO_2$ (9 : 1). 200-nm-thick ITO thin films were manufactured by various process pressures ($2.0{\times}10^{-2}$, $7.0{\times}10^{-3}$ and $2.0{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr). The optical transmittance and resistivity of the deposited ITO thin films showed a relatively satisfactory result under $10^{-2}$ Torr. For high process pressure, the optical transmittance was below 80%, while for low process pressure, the optical transmittance was above 85%. As a result of of mobility, resistivity and carrier concentration by Hall measurement, we obtained satisfactory properties to apply into a transparent conducting thin film.

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.

We developed a high-performance methane gas sensor based on a $SnO_2$ hollow hemisphere array structure of nano-thickness. The sensor structures were fabricated by sputter deposition of Sn metal over an array of polystyrene spheres distributed on a planar substrate, followed by an oxidation process to oxidize the Sn to $SnO_2$ while removing the polystyrene template cores. The surface morphology and structural properties were examined by scanning electron microscopy. An optimization of the structure for methane sensing was also carried out. The effects of oxidation temperature, film thickness, gold doping, and morphology were examined. An impressive response of ~220% was observed for a 200 ppm concentration of $CH_4$ gas at an operating temperature of $400^{\circ}C$ for a sample fabricated by 30 sec sputtering of Sn, and oxidation at $800^{\circ}C$ for 2 hr in air. This high response was enabled by the open structure of the hemisphere array thin films.

Recently, the electron transport layer (ETL) has become one of the key components for high-performance perovskite solar cell (PSC). This study is motivated by the nonreproducible performance of ETL made of spin coated SnO₂ applied to a PSC. We made a comparative study between tin oxide deposited by atomic layer deposition (ALD) or spin coating to be used as an ETL in N-I-P PSC. 15 nm-thick Tin oxide thin films were deposited by ALD using tetrakisdimethylanmiotin (TDMASn) and using reactant ozone at 120 ℃. PSC using ALD SnO₂ as ETL showed a maximum efficiency of 18.97 %, and PSC using spin coated SnO₂ showed a maximum efficiency of 18.46 %. This is because the short circuit current (Jsc) of PSC using the ALD SnO₂ layer was 0.75 mA/cm² higher than that of the spin coated SnO₂. This result can be attributed to the fact that the electron transfer distance from the perovskite is constant due to the thickness uniformity of ALD SnO₂. Therefore ALD SnO₂ is a candidate as a ETL for use in PSC vacuum deposition.

Indium Tin Oxide(ITO) thin films have been fabricated by the dc magnetron sputtering technique with a target of a mixture $In_{2}O_{3}$(90mol%) and $SnO_{2}$(10mol%). We prepared ITO thin films with substrate temperature 200 to $400^{\circ}C$ and annealing temperature 200 to $500^{\circ}C$. Good polycrystalline-structured ITO films with a low electrical resistivity of $3.4{\times}10^{-4}\Omega{\cdot}cm$ have been obtained. The visible light transmittance of all obtained films was over 80 %.
