This paper presents a study on fluid flow analysis of organic semiconductor thin film deposition process using the computational numerical method. In the production process, the thickness of deposited organic thin film depends on distribution of nozzle size in the linear cell system, so we analyze to decide the optimal nozzle system for uniform thickness of organic thin film. The results of deposited thickness of thin film by numerical analysis are in good agreement with those of the experimental measurements.

We studied the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) aligning capabilities using the new alignment material of a-C:H thin film as working gas at 30W rf bias condition. A high pretilt angle of about 5$^{\circ}$ by ion beam(IB) exposure on the a-C:H thin film surface was measured. A good LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface was observed at annealing temperature of 250$^{\circ}C$, and the alignment defect of the NLC was observed above annealing temperature of 300$^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the high LC pretilt angle and the good thermal stability of LC alignment by the IB alignment method on the a-C:H thin film surface as working gas at 30W rf bias condition can be achieved.

Recently, the decrease in thin film thickness has been actively studied by changing several physical elements such as the increase in revolution velocity of lower substrate equipped with AC or DC motor. In this paper, we propose a novel spin coater control system that changes AC or DC motor and common use software with limitation of velocity and position control into step motor and LABVIEW software based on GUI to control revolution velocity and position more precisely. By determining six input values of rotation velocity 1, 5, 10, 25, 50, 100 PPS, we fabricated six samples using coating target, TA(tantalum) on silicon substrate and measured their thin film thickness by SEM. Hence, this research can be applied to inferring thin film thickness of tantalum regarding any value of revolution velocity without additional experiments and for linear reference model via property analysis of thin film thickness using other thin-film materials.

In this paper, amorphous semiconductor and insulator thin film are etched using reactive ion etcher. At that time, we experiment in various RIE conditions (chamber pressure, gas flow rate, rf power, temperature) that have effects on quality of thin film. The using gases are $CF_4,\;CF_4+O_2,\;CCl_2F_2,\;CHF_3$ gases. The etching of a-Si:H thin film use $CF_4,\;CF_4+O_2$ gases and the etching of $a-SiO_2,\;a-SiN_x$ thin film use $CCl_2F_2,\;CHF_3$ gases. The $CCl_2F_2$ gas is particularly excellent because the selectivity of between a-Si:H thin film and $a-SiN_x$ thin film is 6:1. We made precise condition on dry etching with uniformity of 5%. If this dry etching condition is used, that process can acquire high yield and can cut down process cost.

The spiral type thin-film inductor performed in high frequency at 2-5[MHz] range is analyzed by 2-dimensional Finite Element Method(2D FEM). The features of micro thin-film inductor have complicated electromagnetic phenomenon such as skin effect, proximity effect and magnetic saturation. To develope miniatured magnetic device considering these features, it is important to predict the property of the thin film inductor according to design parameter. In this paper, we present the 2D FEM analysis for the spiral type thin film inductor. The characteristics of inductor from point of view of inductance, resistance and quality factor are studied according to design parameter and various pattern construction.

ZnO thin film had been deposited on the glass by sputtering method, and the electrical and structural properties were investigated. When the rf power was 180W and sputtering was 10 m Torr at room temperature, Al-doped ZnO thin film had the lowest resistivity(1$\times10^{-4}\Omega\cdot{cm}$) and then carrier concentration and Hall mobility were $6.27\times10^{20} cm^{-3} and 22.04 cm^2/V\cdot$s, respectively. The undoped ZnO thin film had about 10$\times10^{14}\Omega\cdot cm$ resistivity when oxygen content was 10% or more at room temperature. When the oxygen content was 50% and below and sputtering pressure was 1.0$\times$1.0 \ulcorner Torr, the surface morphology of thin film observed by SEM was overall uniform.

Thin film inductors of $10 mm \times 10 mm$ with inner coil type of 14 turns were fabricated by sputtering, photo-masking, and etching processes. Their characteristics of impedances and annealing after were investigated. The properties of impedances of the thin film magnetic core inductors with inner coil type were improved by magnetic field annealing due to the removal of residual stress and the improvement magnetic properties of magnetic films. But the characteristics of frequency of the thin film magnetic core inductors were not improved by magnetic field annealing due to properties of the spiral pattern and inner coil type. The thin film magnetic core inductor annealed by uniaxal field annealing method showed an inductance of 1000 nH and resistance of$ 6 \Omega$ of 1 at 2 MHz.

AIN thin film has been deposited on the $AI_2$$O_3$substrate with reactive radio frequency( RF) magnetron sputtering method. In this work, elelctromechanical coupling coefficient of AIN thin film was increased with an increase of AIN thin film thickness, and the maximum value was 0.11%. Insertion loss of SAW device was decreased with an increase of AIN thin film thickness and the minimum value was 33［㏈］. SAW velocity of IDTs/AIN/$AI_2$$O_3$structure and IDTs/AIN/$AI_2$$O_3$/Si structure were about 5480［㎧］and 5040［㎧］respectively.

Reactive radio frequency (RF)magnetron sputter has been used to deposit AlN thin film on a Si substrate. (002)Preferred orientation of AlN thin film has been obtained at low sputtering pressure and high $\textrm{N}_2$ concentration. Also it has been shown that properties of AlN thin film are affected by presputtering time. As presputtering time increased aluminum and nitride concentration of AlN thin film decreased. But oxygen concentration and grain size increased. The good preferred orientation was shown with the short presputtering time.

The ZTO/p-Si thin film was produced and investigated for tunneling phenomena caused by the interface characteristics of the depletion layer. ZTO thin film was deposited and heat treated to produce barrier potentials by the depletion layer. The negative resistance characteristics were shown in the thin film of ZTO heat treated at $100^{\circ}C$, and the insulation properties were the best. Current decreased in the negative voltage direction by nonlinear show key characteristics, and current decreased in tunneling phenomenon by negative resistance in the positive voltage direction. Heat treated at $100^{\circ}C$, the ZTO thin film has increased barrier potential in the areas of the depletion layer and therefore the current has increased rapidly. The current has decreased again as we go beyond the depletion layer. Therefore, tunneling can be seen to make insulation better. In the ZTO thin film heat treated at $70^{\circ}C$ without tunneling, leakage current occurred as current increased at positive voltage. Therefore, tunneling effects by negative resistance were found to enhance insulation properties electrically.
