In this study, $BaTiO_3$ thin films were grown by RF-magnetron sputtering, and the effects of the thin film thickness on the structural characteristics of $BaTiO_3$ thin films were systematically investigated. Instead of the oxide substrates generally used for the growth of $BaTiO_3$ thin films, p-Si substrates which are widely used in the current semiconductor processing, were used in this study in order to pursue high efficiency in device integration processing. For the crystallization of the grown thin films, annealing was carried out in air, and the annealing temperature was varied from $700^{\circ}C$. The changed thickness was within 200 nm~1200 nm. The XRD results showed that the best crystal quality was obtained for ample thicknesses 700 nm~1200 nm. The SEM analysis revealed that Si/$BaTiO_3$ are good quality interface characteristics within 300 nm when observed thickness. And surface roughness observed of $BaTiO_3$ thin films from AFM measurement are good quality surface characteristics within 300 nm. Depth-profiling analysis through GDS (glow discharge spectrometer) showed that the stoichiometric composition could be maintained. The results obtained in this study clearly revealed $BaTiO_3$ thin films grown on a p-Si substrate such as thin film thickness. The optimum thickness was 300 nm, the thin film was found to have the characteristics of thin film with good electrical properties.

We present a useful and practical manufacturing technique that enables the structural conversion of delicate as-grown nanostructures to more beneficial and robust thin-film frameworks through controlled mechanical rolling. Functional nanostructures such as carbon nanotubes grown through chemical vapor deposition in a vertically aligned and very loosely packed manner, and thus difficult to manipulate for subsequent uses, can be prepared in an array of thin blades by patterning the growth catalyst layer. They can then be toppled as dominos through precisely controlled mechanical rolling. The nanostructures formulated to horizontally aligned thin films are much more favorable for device applications typically based on thin-film configuration. The proposed technique may broaden the functionality and applicability of as-grown nanostructures by converting them into thin-film frameworks that are easier to handle and more durable and favorable for fabricating thin-film devices for electronics, sensors, and other applications.

Zinc oxide film is a transparent conductive material and is used in optoelectronic devices in various fields. Therefore, characterization of the zinc oxide film will play a very important role in improving the performance of optoelectronic devices. Here, we will evaluate the morphological and structural characteristics of such a zinc oxide film based on the solution process. Specifically, the sol-gel method will be repeatedly performed to observe the change in material properties of the zinc oxide film according to the number of times of spin-coating. It was confirmed that crystallization proceeded as a result of performing the sol-gel method repetitively 5 times under constant solution conditions. At 7 times or more, the element composition and crystallinity tended to converge to a specific value. The average crystal size of the final zinc oxide film was calculated to be about 10.7 nm. In this study, the number of processes showing optimal crystallization was 7 times. The results and methodology of this study can be applied while varying various solution process variables and are expected to contribute to establishing optimal process conditions.

Degummed silk from Bombyx mori was dissolved in 9.3M lithium bromide solution. The regenerated silk fibroin films were completely ${\alpha}$-randomcoil type as shown by x-ray diffraction and infrared spectroscopy. The structural changes in silk fibroin induced by immersion into methanol and dilute hydrochloric acid and its photo-yellowing effect was studied. The changes of crystallinity were measured by infrared spectrometer. Yellowness index caused by ultraviolet irradiation were observed as a function of the structural change on silk fibroin. On treatment with methanol, ${\alpha}$-randomcoil silk film is converted to the ${\beta}$-form structure. After the treatment of hydrochloric acid on ${\beta}$-form structure in silk induced by immersion into methanol, ${\beta}$-form in silk fibroin is partially decreased. Crystallization owing to ${\beta}$-form transition reduced the initial yellowness index by ultraviolet irradiation. A little ${\beta}$-form structure in silk fibroin increased the initial yellowness in comparison with more ${\beta}$-form structure.

The structural properties of $HfO_2$ films could be improved by thermal treatment owing to their crystallization. We deposited $HfO_2$ films on sapphire by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering, whose base vacuum pressure was lower than $4.5{\times}10^{-6}$ Pa, RF power was 100 W, working temperature was $200^{\circ}C$, working pressure was 3 mTorr, and the density of the active gas (Argon) was 20 sccm. After depositing the $HfO_2$ films, the samples were thermally treated by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) in $O_2$ ambient at different temperatures. Subsequently, the measured physical properties (structural, morphological, and optical) indicated that the crystallite size, refractive index at a wavelength of 632 nm, and packing density increased with rising temperatures. In particular, an $HfO_2$ film thermally treated at $800^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ ambient had the highest refractive index of 2.0237 and packing density of 0.9638. The relation between optical and structural properties was also analyzed.

Through the film 'Miss Granny', we analyzed a variety of structures. Social awareness of the cultural content of the film shown in the form of elderly social psychology, combination of approaches, role structural analysis of the people around centered the main character, acceleration structure analysis of the people around, the atmosphere structural analysis according to the environment of the people around. By these analysis, the elderly mentality was noticed by sociological theory related to the elderly. The formation of negative stereotypes and perceptions in what young people have a bias and unconscious, conscious discrimination against the elderly was mentioned in conclusion. Because the positive changes in recognition of the elderly is necessary, collective prejudice should be eliminated. The social atmosphere composition that can empathize with the sentiment of the elderly in the pursuit of youth and the necessity to develop generation integrated social programs with that younger generation and older generation sympathize together were suggested. were heartfelt suggested.

ZnO thin film had been deposited on the glass 7r sputtering method, and investigated by electrical and structural properties. When the rf power was 188W and sputtering pressure was 1$\times$10$^{-3}$ Torr at room temperature, Al-doped ZnO thin film had the lowest resistivity(1$\times$10$^{-4}$ $\Omega$.cm), and then carrier concentration and Hall mobility were 6.27$\times$10$^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$ and 22.04$\textrm{cm}^2$/V.s, respectively. And undoped ZnO thin film had about 10$^{14}$ $\Omega$.cm resistivity when oxygen content was 10% or more at room temperature. The surface morphology of ZnO thin film observed by SEM was overall uniform when oxygen content was 50% below and sputtering pressure was 1.0$\times$10$^{-1}$ Torr.

The effect of the superconducting film thickness on the substrate temperature has been investigated. Superconducting YBCO thin films have been grown on MgO substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The dependence of the orientation of YBCO film on thickness has been investigated by X-ray diffraction technique. X-ray diffraction indicated that the film orientation was changed by increasing the film thickness and by changing the substrate temperature.
