Cylindrical Rotating Magnetron Sputtering Cathode (이하 Rotary Cathode)는 기존에 사용 되던 rectangular type 보다 Target 사용 효율이 높다는 큰 이점을 가지고 있다. 높은 Target 사용 효율은 비용 절감 효과와 직접적으로 관련 된다. 이번 연구는 3D Plasma simulation(PIC-MCC)을 통한 Target 사용 효율 80% 이상의 Rotary Cathode 개발을 목적으로 한다. Plasma simulation에 External Magnetic fields를 접목하여 Electron의 이동 궤적을 제어하였고, 생성된 Ion (Ar+)의 밀도 및 속도로 Plasma의 안정성과 Erosion 계산 구간을 선정 하였다. Target Erosion Profile은 Sputtering yield Data와 Target에 충돌한 Ion 정보를 사용하여 산출 하였으며, Sputtered Particles의 Deposition Profile은 계산된 Target Erosion Profile과 The cosine law of emission을 이용하여 계산 하였다. 실험 조건은 Plasma simulation의 초기조건 바탕으로 하여 2G size의 ITO Target을 대상으로 실험 하였다. 비 Erosion 영역 최소화하기 위해 Magnet Length를 변경하여 제작 적용 하였다. Simulation 계산 시간의 제약으로 인하여 simulation에서 생성된 최대 이온 밀도는 일반적으로 알려진 값 보다 적게 계산 되었지만, Simulation으로 예측한 Erosion Profile 및 Deposition Profile은 실험 값과 유사한 형태를 나타났으며, 실험 결과는 Target 사용 효율 80%이상의 결과를 보였다.

Single-phase $Sr_2FeMoO_6$ thin films were produced by RF magnetron sputtering for use as electrodes in integrated sensors and found to be good conductors at room temperature. The films were deposited from a powder-type sputtering target under various conditions, and were crystallized by annealing. Elimination of $O_2$ gas during deposition, by the use of a solely Ar sputtering gas under a working pressure as low as possible, and vacuum annealing were important to promote the $Sr_2FeMoO_6$ phase. However, oxygen exclusion from sputtering and annealing was not enough to yield single-phase $Sr_2FeMoO_6$: hydrogen annealing was also required. Film production was optimized by varying the deposition parameters and hydrogen annealing conditions. The film had good electrical conduction, with a low resistivity of $1.6{\times}10^{-2}\Omega{\cdot}cm$ at room temperature.

CuNi alloy films are deposited by co-sputtering of dual targets (Cu and Ni, respectively). Effects of the co-sputtering conditions, such as powers applied to the targets, deposition pressures, and substrate temperatures, on the structural and electrical properties of deposited films are systematically investigated. The composition ratio of Ni/Cu is almost linearly decreased by increasing the DC power applied to the Cu target from 25.6 W to 69.7 W with the RF power applied to the Ni target unchanged(140 W). it is noted that the chamber pressure during deposition and the film thickness give rise to a change of the Ni/Cu ratio within the films deposited. The former may be due to a higher sputtering yield of Cu atom and the latter due to the re-sputtering phenomenon of Cu atoms on the surface of deposited film. The film deposited at higher pressures or at lower substrate temperatures have a smaller crystallite size, a higher electrical resistivity, and much more voids. This may be attributed to a lower surface mobility of sputtered atoms over the substrate.

AlN(Aluminium Nitride) thin films were prepared using by RF sputtering method on the Si(100) and Si(111) substrates as the parameters of the substrate temperature, RF power, sputtering duration and the $N_2$/Ar ratio and investigated by X-ray diffraction, IR spectrometry, n&k analyzer. For the Si(100) substrate, the AlN thin films of (101) orientation were obtained under the conditions of room temperature and the nitrogen of 60 vol.%. For the Si(111) substrate, the (002) AlN thin films were obtained under the nitrogen of 100 vol.%. In case of the thin film prepared in the condition of above 60 vol.% of the nitrogen, the average value of the surface roughness of the film was 151$\AA$. From the changes of the half widths of E$_1$[TO] phonon bands at the wavenumber of 680$cm^{-1}$ /, it were compared of the crystallinities of the films which were grown under the different conditions. The thicknesses of AlN films were decreased dramatically in the region of the nitrogen of 40~60 vol.%. Its due to the nitridation of the Al target surface and getting low of the sputtering yield by the $N_2$/Ar ratio being increased.

[ $RF-O_2$ ] plasma 처리한 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율을 집속이온빔 장치를 이용하여 측정하였다. 가속 전압 10 kV의 Ga 이온빔을 주사했을 때 plasma 처리하지 않은 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율은 0.33 atoms/ion, $RF-O_2$ plasma 처리한 MgO 박막의 스퍼터링 수율은 0.20 atoms/ion 으로 $RF-O_2$ plasma 처리한 경우 스퍼터링 수율이 낮아졌다. 또한 XPS, AFM을 통해 plasma 처리로 인한 MgO 표면의 변화를 관찰하였다. MgO 박막에 $RF-O_2$ plasma 처리한 후 XPS O 1s spectra의 binding energy와 FWHM 값이 각각 2.36 eV와 0.6167 eV 작아졌고 표면거칠기의 RMS 값 또한 0 32 nm 작아졌다.

After LeComber et al. reported the first amorphous hydrogenated silicon (a-Si: H) TFT, many laboratories started the development of an active matrix LCDs using a-Si:H TFTs formed on glass substrate. With increasing the display area and pixel density of TFT-LCD, however, high mobility TFTs are required for pixel driver of TF-LCD in order to shorten the charging time of the pixel electrodes. The most important of these drawbacks is a-Si's electron mobiliy, which is the speed at which electrons can move through each transistor. The problem of low carier mobility for the a-Si:H TFTs can be overcome by introducing polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) thin film instead of a-Si:H as a semiconductor layer of TFTs. Therefore, poly-Si has gained increasing interest and has been investigated by many researchers. Recnetly, fabrication of such poly-Si TFT-LCD panels with VGA pixel size and monolithic drivers has been reported, . Especially, fabricating poly-Si TFTs at a temperature mach lower than the strain point of glass is needed in order to have high mobility TFTs on large-size glass substrate, and the monolithic drivers will reduce the cost of TFT-LCDs. The conventional methods to fabricate poly-Si films are low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD0 as well as solid phase crystallization (SPC), pulsed rapid thermal annealing(PRTA), and eximer laser annealing (ELA). However, these methods have some disadvantages such as high deposition temperature over $600^{\circ}C$, small grain size (<50nm), poor crystallinity, and high grain boundary states. Therefore the low temperature and large area processes using a cheap glass substrate are impossible because of high temperature process. In this study, therefore, we have deposited poly-Si thin films on si(100) and glass substrates at growth temperature of below 40$0^{\circ}C$ using newly developed high rate magnetron sputtering method. To improve the sputtering yield and the growth rate, a high power (10~30 W/cm2) sputtering source with unbalanced magnetron and Si ion extraction grid was designed and constructed based on the results of computer simulation. The maximum deposition rate could be reached to be 0.35$\mu$m/min due to a high ion bombardment. This is 5 times higher than that of conventional sputtering method, and the sputtering yield was also increased up to 80%. The best film was obtained on Si(100) using Si ion extraction grid under 9.0$\times$10-3Torr of working pressure and 11 W/cm2 of the target power density. The electron mobility of the poly-si film grown on Si(100) at 40$0^{\circ}C$ with ion extraction grid shows 96 cm2/V sec. During sputtering, moreover, the characteristics of si source were also analyzed with in situ Langmuir probe method and optical emission spectroscopy.

In AC PDP, electrodes are covered with dielectric layer and the discharge is formed on the surface of the dielectric layer. MgO protection layer on the dielectric layer in PDP prevents a dielectric layer from sputtering and lowers the firing voltage due to a large secondary electron emission yield( ${\gamma}$ ). Until now, the MgO protection layer is mainly prepared by E-beam evaporation. However, there are some problems that is easy pollution and change of its characteristics with time and delamination. Therefore, in this study, MgO protection layer is prepared on dielectric layer by reactive R.F. magnetron sputtering with MgO target. Discharge characteristics and secondary electron emission coefficients of PDP are studied as a parameter of preparation conditions. Discharge voltage characteristics of the prepared MgO layer can be stable and improved by the annealing process in vacuum chamber.
