The sputtering yield change of an amorphous Si layer on Si(100) was measured quantitatively for 0.5 keV $O_2^{+}$ and $Ar^{+}$ ion bombardment with in suit MEIS. In the case of 0.5 keV $O_2^{+}$ ion bombardment, at the initial stage of sputtering before surface oxidation, the sputtering yield of Si was 1.4 (Si atoms/$O_2^{+}$) and then decreased down to 0.06 at the ion dose of $3\times10^{16}O_2\;^{+}\textrm{/cm}^2$. In the case of 0.5 keV $Ar^{+}$ ion bombardment, the sputtering yield of Si for the surface normal incidence was 0.56 at the ion dose of 2.5 ${\times}$ 10$^{15}$ $Ar^{+}\textrm{cm}^2$, and rapidly saturated to 1.2 at dose of $7.5\times10^{15}Ar^+\textrm{cm}^2$. For the incidence angle of 80 from surface normal, the sputtering yield of Si was saturated to about 1.4 at the initial stage of sputtering. The surface transient effects, caused by change in sputtering yield at the initial stage of sputtering can be negligible when 0.5 keV $Ar^{+}$ ion at extremely grazing angle was used for sputter depth profiling.g.

시료에 주입된 이온의 깊이방향에 따른 농도분포를 알아보기 위하여 시료표면을 sputtering 하면서 튀어나온 주입된 이온을 depth profiling한다. Depth profiling 측정 시에 깊이방향에 영향을 주는 sputtering rate가 변화하는 효과를 SRIM simulation을 이용하여 계산하였다. 시료에 이온이 주입하게 되면 시료의 원자밀도는 약간 증가하게 되는데, 그 결과로 sputtering yield가 변화하게 된다. 이러한 변화가 결과적으로 depth profile 측정시에 깊이방향에 영향을 줄 수 있는 sputtering rate를 변화시키는 원인이 된다. SRIM(Stopping and Range of Ions in Matter) Monte Carlo simulation code를 사용하여 이온주입에 의한 시료의 원자밀도의 변화에 따른 sputtering yield를 구하여 sputtering rate를 계산하고, 그 차이가 depth profiling 측정에서 깊이방향 분포에 영향을 줄 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

The sputtering yield of tungsten pellets composed of different particle sizes of <1, 12, 44-74, and 149-297 ㎛ was systematically investigated by bombardment with Ar⁺ ions accelerated at 2.0 keV in an ultra-high vacuum chamber. We found that the tungsten sample fabricated from larger particles had a higher surface roughness, based on the surface profile results. Using the data of the surface roughness for the four types of tungsten pellets, we confirmed that the sputtering yield for a tungsten pellet with the highest surface roughness was 7 times lower than that of the lowest surface roughness. This could be due to the redeposition of sputtered tungsten particles onto neighboring asperities.

We have investigated the sputtering and secondary electron emission characteristics of MgO protective layer according to the $O_2$ partial pressure. The MgO layer have been deposited by electron beam evaporation method and have varied the $O_2$ partial pressure as 0, $5.2{\times}10^{-5}$, $1.0{\times}10^{-4}$, and $4.1{\times}10^{-4}$ Torr. It has been known that the secondary electron emission coefficient and the number of defect energy levels increased as the $O_2$ partial pressure increases. So we have investigated the property of sputtering yield according to the $O_2$ partial pressure. We have known that the sputtering yield deceases as the $O_2$ partial pressure increases by using the FIB system.

전자빔 증착기를 이용하여 1000 $\AA$의 두께를 가진 MgO박막을 구리 기판위에 상온에서 증착하였다. 스퍼터링수율 측정시 MgO 층에 충전현상을 없애주기 위해서 1000 $\AA$ 두께의 Al을 증착하였다. 갈륨 액체금속을 집속이온빔 이온원으로 사용하였다. 두 개의 정전렌즈를 사용하여 이온빔을 집속하였고, MgO에 이온빔을 주사하기 위해 편향기를 사용하였다. 가속전압의 변화에 따라 시료대 전류와 이차입자 전류를 측정하였고, 이 전류값은 소스에 인가하는 가속전압에 따라 변화되었다 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율은 분석된 시료대 전류, 이차입자 전류 및 순수빔 전류의 값을 사용하여 결정하였다. 집속이온빔 장치의 가속전압이 15 kV일 때 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율은 0.30으로 나왔고 가속전압의 값이 증가할 때 스퍼터링 수율이 선형적으로 증가하였다. 이러한 결과를 볼 때 집속이온빔 장치를 이용하면 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율을 측정할 패 매우 효과적임을 알 수 있다.

We obtained sputtering yields for the MgO, $MgAl_2O_4$ and $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ films using the FIB system. $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ protective layers have been found to have less $24^{\sim}^30%$ sputtering yield values from 0.24 atoms/ion up to 0.36 atoms/ion than MgO layers with the values from 0.36 atoms/ion up to 0.45 atoms/ion for irradiated $Ga^+$ ion beam whose energies ranged from 10 keV to 14 keV. And $MgAl_2O_4$ layers have been found to have lowest sputtering yield values from 0.88 up to 0.11. It is also found that $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ and MgO have secondary electron emission $coefficient({\gamma})$ values from 0.09 up to 0.12 for $Ne^+$ ion whose energies ranged from 50 eV to 200 eV.

Sputtering yield of MgO film in the AC-PDPs has been calculated by Monte Carlo simulation of ion scattering. In the ion energy range less than 50 eV, the sputtering yield is 4 ${\times}$ $10^{-4}$ for Xe ions and it is between 0.1 and 0.01 for He, Ne, and Ar ions. The erosion rate is estimated about $25{\AA}$ per hour for Xe ions in an actual PDP plasma for sustain and full white mode.

The LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramic) technology meets the requirements for high quality microelectronic devices and microsystems application due to a very good electrical and mechanical properties, high reliability and stability as well as possibility of making integrated three dimensional microstructures. The wet process, which has been applied to the etching of the metallic thin film on the ceramic substrate, has multi process steps such as lithography and development and uses very toxic chemicals arising the environmental problems. The other side, Plasma technology like ion beam sputtering is clean process including surface cleaning and treatment, sputtering and etching of semiconductor devices, and environmental cleanup. In this study, metallic multilayer pattern was fabricated by the ion beam etching of Ti/Pd/Cu without the lithography. In the experiment, Alumina and LTCC were used as the substrate and Ti/Pd/Cu metallic multilayer was deposited by the DC-magnetron sputtering system. After the formation of Cu/Ni/Au multilayer pattern made by the photolithography and electroplating process, the Ti/Pd/Cu multilayer was dry-etched by using the low energy-high current ion-beam etching process. Because the electroplated Au layer was the masking barrier of the etching of Ti/Pd/Cu multilayer, the additional lithography was not necessary for the etching process. Xenon ion beam which having the high sputtering yield was irradiated and was used with various ion energy and current. The metallic pattern after the etching was optically examined and analyzed. The rate and phenomenon of the etching on each metallic layer were investigated with the diverse process condition such as ion-beam acceleration energy, current density, and etching time.

A new Monte-Carlo-based computer program (RDS-BASIC) is developed to simulate the transport of energetic ions in pure matter. This computer program is utilizing an algorithm that uses detailed numerical solutions for the classical scattering integral for evaluating the outcomes of the binary collision processes. This approach is adopted by several prominent similar simulation programs and is known to provide results with higher accuracy compared to other approaches that use approximations to shorten the simulation time. Furthermore, RDS-BASIC simulation program contains special methods to reduce the displacement energy threshold of surface atoms. This implementation is found essential for accurate simulation results for sputtering yield in the case of very low energy ions irradiation (near sputtering energy threshold) and also successfully solve the problem of simultaneously obtaining an acceptable number of atomic displacements per incident ions. Results of our simulation for several irradiation systems are presented and compared with their respective TRIM (SRIM-2013) and the state-of-the-art SDTrimSP simulation results. Our sputtering simulation results were also compared with available experimental data. The simulation execution time for these different simulation programs has also been compared.

The application of focused ion beam (FIB) technology in micro/nano machining has become increasingly popular. Its usage in micro/nano machining has advantages over contemporary photolithography or other micro/nano machining technologies such as small feature resolution, the ability to process without masks and being accommodating for a variety of materials and geometries. The target of this paper is the analysis of FIB sputtering process according to tilt angle, dwell time and overlap for application of 3D micro and pattern fabrication and to find the effective beam scanning conditions using Taguchi method. Therefore we make the conclusions that tilt angle is dominant parameter for sputtering yield. Burr size is reduced as tilt angle is higher.
