In recent years, the tantalum nitride(TaN) thin-film has been developed for the electronic resistor, inductor and capacitor. In this papers, this study presents the surface profile and sheet-resistance property relationship of reactive-sputtered TaN thin film resistor processed by TaN(tantalum nitride) on alumina substrate. The TCR properties of the TaN films were discussed in terms of crystallization and thin films surface morphology due to annealing temperature. It is clear that the TaN thin-films resistor electrical properties are low TCR related with it's annealing temperature and ambient annealing condition. Respectively, at $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ on vacuum and nitrogen annealed thin film resistor having a goof thermal stability and lower TCR properties then as deposited thin films expected for the application to the dielectric material of passive component.

Insulating $TaN_x$ films were grown by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition using butylimido tris dimethylamido tantalum and $N_2+H_2$ mixed gas as metalorganic source and reactance gas, respectively. Crossbar devices having a $Pt/TaN_x/Pt$ stack were fabricated and their electrical properties were examined. The crossbar devices exhibited temperature-dependent nonlinear I (current) - V (voltage) characteristics in the temperature range of 90-300 K. Various electrical conduction mechanisms were adopted to understand the governing electrical conduction mechanism in the device. Among them, the PooleFrenkel emission model, which uses a bulk-limited conduction mechanism, may successfully fit with the I - V characteristics of the devices with 5- and 18-nm-thick $TaN_x$ films. Values of ~0.4 eV of trap energy and ~20 of dielectric constant were extracted from the fitting. These results can be well explained by the amorphous micro-structure and point defects, such as oxygen substitution ($O_N$) and interstitial nitrogen ($N_i$) in the $TaN_x$ films, which were revealed by transmission electron microscopy and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The nonlinear conduction characteristics of $TaN_x$ film can make this film useful as a selector device for a crossbar array of a resistive switching random access memory or a synaptic device.

현재 전기, 전자, 우주, 자동차, 무기 등의 여러 분야에서 응용되고 있는 TaNx 다층박막저항체의 특성을 개선하기 위하여 magnetron sputtering법으로 TaNx박막을 제조한 후, 온도와 질소분압에 따른 전기저항 및 TCR특성 변화를 조사하였고, 미세조직이 이들 전기적 성질에 미치는 영향을알아보기 위해 상분석과 morphology를 관찰하였다. 그 결과, TaNx을 코팅한 박막의 전기저항은 $N_{2}$Ar이 0.4 이상에서, 금속전도특성에서 이온전도특성으로 변화하였으며,Cr이 TCR효과를 안정시키는 역할은 하여 TaNx/A $I_{2}$ $O_{3}$보다 TaNx/Cr/A $i_{2}$ $O_{3}$박막의 TCR특성이 더 안정하게 나타났다. 또한 TaNx/A $I_{2}$ $O_{3}$박막과 TaNx/Cr/A $i_{2}$ $O_{3}$박막의 경우 모두 $N_{2}$/Ar이 0-0.4정도에서 TCR효과에 좋은 특성을 나타내었다. X-선회절 실험 결과 $N_{2}$/Ar비가 1일 경우에 T $a_{2}$ $N_{.8}$이 생성되었고, 분압이 증가함에 따라 비정질이 생성되었다. morphology가 $N_{2}$/Ar이 증가함에 따라 입자의 모양이 불연속아일랜드 형태로 변화하였으며, 이것은 질소분압에 따른 전기저항 변화와 일치하였다.다.

Tantalum carbo-nitride($T_aC_xN_y$) films were deposited with chemical vapor deposition(CVD) using tert-butylimido tris-diethylamido tantalum (TBTDET, $^tBu-N=Ta-(NEt_2)_3$, $Et=C_2H_5$, $^tBu=C(CH_3)_3$) between $350^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ with argon as a carrier gas. Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR)spectroscopy was used to study the thermal decomposition behavior of TBTDET in the gas phase. When the temperature was increased, C-H and C-N bonding of TBTDET disappeared and the peaks of ethylene appeared above $450^{\circ}C$ in the gas phase. The growth rate and film density of $T_aC_xN_y$ film were in the range of 0.1nm/min to 1.30nm/min and of $8.92g/cm^3$ to $10.6g/cm^3$ depending on the deposition temperature. $T_aC_xN_y$ films deposited below $400^{\circ}C$ were amorphous and became polycrystal line above $500^{\circ}C$. It was confirmed that the $T_aC_xN_y$ film was a mixture of TaC, graphite, $Ta_3N_5$, TaN, and $Ta_2O_5$ phases and the oxide phase was formed from the post deposition oxygen uptake. With the increase of the deposition temperature, the TaN phase was increased over TaC and $Ta_3N_5$ and crystallinity, work function, conductivity and density of the film were increased. Also the oxygen uptake was decreased due to the increase of the film density. With the increase of the TaC phase in $T_aC_xN_y$ film, the work function was decreased to 4.25eV and with the increase of the TaN phase in $T_aC_xN_y$ film,it was increased to 4.48eV.

We have previously reported that simulated snuff dipping in conjunction with type I herpes simplex virus (HSV-1) induced oral malignant changes in hamsters. Present study was designed to investigate the carcinogenic effect of tobacco specific-N-nitrosamines (TSNAs) and HSV-1, alone or in combination, in hamsters. Hamsters were divided into 6 groups and the right buccal pouch mucosa were treated as follows: Grp 1, Control (Mock inoculation) [MI]+Topical Application [TA] of mineral oil[MO] : Grp 2, TA of 1% n'- nitrosonornicotine [NNN] + IM: Grp3, TA of 1% 4-N-nitrosomethylamino-1- (3-pyridyl)-1-butanone [NNK] + MI: Grp 4, HSV-1 inoculation [HI]+TA of MO : Grp 5, TA of 1% N-nitrosonornicotine [NNN] + HI: Grp 6, TA of 1% NNK + HI. TA of MO or TSNAs was initiated 1 day after the MI or HI and given 3 times per week for 20 consecutive weeks. At the buccal pouches were fixed for light microscope examination. No animal s developed tumors or malignant histopathologic changes in the mucosa of the buccal pouches. These data indicate that individual TSNAs, alone or in conjunction with HSV-1 infection, do not develop malignant changes in hamster buccal pouches.

This paper presents the characteristics of Ta-N thin film strain gauges that are suitable for harsh environemts, which were deposited on thermally oxidized Si substrates by DC reactive magnetronsputtering in an argon-nitrogen atmosphere (Ar-$N_2$ (4 ~ 16 %)). These films were annealed for 1 hr in $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr in a vacuum furnace with temperatures that ranged from 500 - $1000^{\circ}C$. The optimized deposition and annealing conditions of the Ta-N thin film strain gauges were determined using 8 % $N_2$ gas flow ratio and annealing at $900^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. Under optimum formation conditions, the Ta-N thin film strain gauges obtained a high electrical resistivity, ${\rho}\;=\;768.93\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, a low temperature coefficient of resistance, $TCR\;=\;-84\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ and a high temporal stability with a good longitudinal gauge factor, GF=4.12. The fabricated Ta-N thin film strain gauges are expected to be used inmicromachined pressure sensors and load cells that are operable under harsh environments.

Critical dimensions has rapidly shrunk to increase the degree of integration and to reduce the power consumption. However, it is accompanied with several problems like direct tunneling through the gate insulator layer and the low conductivity characteristic of poly-silicon. To cover these faults, the study of new materials is urgently needed. Recently, high dielectric materials like $Al_2O_3$, $ZrO_2$ and $HfO_2$ are being studied for equivalent oxide thickness (EOT). However, poly-silicon gate is not compatible with high-k materials for gate-insulator. To integrate high-k gate dielectric materials in nano-scale devices, metal gate electrodes are expected to be used in the future. Currently, metal gate electrode materials like TiN, TaN, and WN are being widely studied for next-generation nano-scale devices. The TaN gate electrode for metal/high-k gate stack is compatible with high-k materials. According to this trend, the study about dry etching technology of the TaN film is needed. In this study, we investigated the etch mechanism of the TaN thin film in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system with $O_2/BCl_3/Ar$ gas chemistry. The etch rates and selectivities of TaN thin films were investigated in terms of the gas mixing ratio, the RF power, the DC-bias voltage, and the process pressure. The characteristics of the plasma were estimated using optical emission spectroscopy (OES). The surface reactions after etching were investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and auger electron spectroscopy (AES).

This Paper reports the photocatalytic activity of $g-C_3N_4/NaTaO_3$ hybrid composite photocatalysts synthesized by ball-mill method. The $g-C_3N_4$ and $NaTaO_3$ were individually prepared by Solid state reaction and microwave hydrothermal process, respectively. The $g-C_3N_4/NaTaO_3$ composite showed the enhanced photocatalytic activity for degradation of rhodamine B dye (Rh. B) under simulated solar light irradiation. The results revealed that the band-gap energy absorption edge of hybrid composite samples was shifted to a longer wavelength as compared to $NaTaO_3$ and the 50 wt% $g-C_3N_4/NaTaO_3$ hybrid composite exhibited the highest percentage (99.6 %) of degradation of Rh. B and the highest reaction rate constant ($0.013min^{-1}$) in 4 h which could be attributed to the enhanced absorption of the hybrid composite photocatalyst in the UV-Vis region. Hence, these results suggest that the $g-C_3N_4/NaTaO_3$ hybrid composite exhibits enhanced photocatalytic activity for the degradation of rhodamine B under simulated solar light irradiation in comparison to the commercial $NaTaO_3$.

본 연구에서는 차세대 집적회로 device의 배선재료로서 사용될 가능성이 높은 Cu 금속을 무전해 도금으로 증착시킨 후 집적회로 공정에 필요한 열적 안정성에 대하여 고찰하 였다. MOCVD방법으로 Si 기판위에 TaN 박막을 확산 방지막으로 증착시킨 다음 무전해도 금으로 Cu막을 증착시켜 Cu/TaN/Si 구조의 다층박막을 제조하여 H2 환원 분위기에서 열처 리시킴으로서 열처리 온도에 따른 Cu 박막의 특성과 확산방지막 TaN와의 계면반응 특성에 대하여 고찰하였다. 활성화 처리와 도금용액의 조절을 적절히 행함으로서 MOCVD TaN 박 막위에 적당한 접착력을 지닌 Cu 박막층을 무전해 도금법을 사용하여 성공적으로 증착시킬 수 있었다. XRD, SEM 분석결과에 의하면 H2 환원분위기에서 열처리시켰을겨우 35$0^{\circ}C$~ $600^{\circ}C$ 범위에서 결정립 성장이 일어나 Cu 박막의 미세구조 특성이 개선됨을 알수 있었다. 또한 XRD, AES 분석에 의하여 열처리 온도에 따른 계면반응 상태를 조사해본 결과 $650^{\circ}C$ 온도에서는 Cu 원자가 TaN 확산방지막을 통과하여 Si 기판내로 확산함으로서 계면에서 Cu-Si 중간화합물을 형성하였다.
