다양한 증착 조건에서 DC 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 이용하여 플라스틱 기판위에 $SnO_2$가 5, 7, 10wt% 도핑된 고밀도 ITO타겟으로 증착한 ITO박막의 기계적, 전기적 특성을 연구하였다. $SnO_2$가 7wt% 도핑된 ITO타겟으로 증착한 박막에서 $3.19{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$의 가장 낮은 비저항 값을 관찰할 수 있었고, 기계적 내구성 또한 가장 우수하였다.

Sol-gel dip coating법으로 soda lime glass 기판 위에 ATO(antimony-doped tin oxide) 투명전도막을 제조할 때, 기판 위에 형성된 $SiO_2$ barrier 층 및 $N_2$ gas annealing 에 따른 광투과율 및 전기적 특성에 대한 효과를 정량적으로 측정하고, XPS(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy) 분석을 통해 고찰하였다. $SiO_2$ barrier층을 갖는 glass 기판 위에 코팅된400 nm 두께의 ATO 박막을 질소분위기에서 annealing한 결과, 광 투과율은 84%그리고 전기저항은 약 $5.0\times 10^{-3}\Omega \textrm{cm}$로 측정되었다 XPS 분석결과 이러한 우수한 전기전도성은 $SiO_2$ buffer층이 glass 기판으로부터 Na 이온의 확산을 막아 ATO막 내에 $Na_2SnO_3$ 및 SnO와 같은 2차상 불순물의 형성을 억제하여 막 내부의 Sb의 농도 및 $Sb^{5+}/Sb^{3+}$ 비를 증가시키고, $N_2$ annealing은 $Sb^{5+}$ 도 환원시키지만 $Sn^{4+}$를 환원시키는 효과가 크게 작용하였기 때문으로 사료된다.

Tin dioxide($_SnO2$) thin films were deposited on alumina substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) as a function of temperature and time. Thin films were fabricated from di-n-butyltin diacetate as a precursor and oxygen as an oxidation. The microstructure of deposited films was characterized by X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM). The thickness was linearly increased with deposition time and $SnO_2$structure was found from $375^{\circ}C$ for the deposition time of 32 min. The maximum sensitivity to 500ppm CO gas was observed for the specimens deposited at $375^{\circ}C$ for 2 min at the operating temperature of $350^{\circ}C$. Gas sensitivity to CO increased with decreasing the film thickness. The sensing properties of response time, recovery and sensitivity of CO were changed with variations of substrate temperature and time.

Zn-Sn-O (Zinc-Tin-Oxide; ZTO) thin films have been gaining extensive academic and industrial attentions owing to a semiconducting channel materials applicable to large-sized flat-panel displays. Due to the constituent oxides i.e., ZnO and SnO2, the resultant Zn-Sn-O thin films possess artificially controllable bandgaps and transmittances especially effective in the visible regime. The current approach employed RF sputtering in depositing the Zn-Sn-O thin films onto glass substrates at ambient conditions. This work places its main emphases on the electrical/optical features which are closely related to the combinations of processing variables. The electrical characterizations are performed using dc-based current-voltage characteristics and ac-based impedance spectroscopy. The optical constants, i.e., refractive index and extinction coefficient, are calculated through spectroscopic ellipsometry along with the estimation of bandgaps. The charge transport of the deposited ZTO thin films is based on electrons characteristic of n-type conduction. In addition to the basic electrical/optical information, the delicate manipulation of n-type conduction is indispensible in diversifying the industrial applications of the ZTO thin films as active devices in information and energy products. Ultimately, the electrical properties are correlated to the processing variables along with the underlying mechanism which largely determines the electrical and optical properties.

The Indium Zinc Tin Oxide (IZTO) and Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) thin films are grown on PI substrate at different substrate temperature by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering with a sintered ceramic target of IZTO (In2O3 70 wt.%, ZnO 15 wt.%, SnO2 15 wt.%) and ITO (In2O3 90wt.%, SnO2 10wt.%). The structural, electrical, and optical properties are investigated. The IZTO thin films deposited at low temperature showed relatively low electrical resistivity compared to ITO thin films deposited at low temperature. As a result, we could prepare the IZTO thin films with the resistivity as low as $5.6{\times}10^{-4}({\Omega}{\cdot}m)$. Both of the films deposited on PI substrate showed an average transmittance over 80% in visible range (400.800nm). Overall, IZTO thin film is a promising candidate as an alternative TCO material to ITO in flexible and OLED devices.

Thin films of tin oxide were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (C.V>D) using the hydrolysis reaction of SnCl4, Deposition rate increased with the increase of temperature up to $500^{\circ}C$and then decreased at $700^{\circ}C$, Deposition rate with SnCl4 partial pressure showed RidealEley behavir. It was found that SnO2 thin film deposited at the temperature above $400^{\circ}C$ had(110) and (301) plane preferred orientation with crystallinity of rutite structure. Electrical resisvity of SnO2 thin film decreased with increase increase of deposition temperature and showed minimum value of 10-3 ohm at $500^{\circ}C$and than largely increased increased with further increase of deposition temperture.

$H_2S$ micro-gas sensors have been developed employing $SnO_2$:CuO composite thin films. The films were prepared by e-beam evaporation of Sn and Cu metals on silicon substrates, followed by oxidation at high temperatures. Results of various studies, such as scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) reveal that $SnO_2$ and CuO are mutually non-reactive. The CuO grains, which in turn reside in the inter-granular regions of $SnO_2$, inhibit grain growth of $SnO_2$ as well as forming a network of p-n junctions. The film showed more than a 90% relative resistance change when exposed to $H_2S$ gas at 1 ppm in air at an operating temperature of $350^{\circ}C$ and had a short response time of 8 sec.

Hydrothermally grown ZnO nanorods were synthesized with various Sn contents on quartz substrates, ranging from 0 to 2.5 at% in increment 0.5 at%. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and ultraviolet (UV)- visible spectroscopy were used to determine the effect of Sn doping on the structural and optical properties. In the SEM images, the nanorods have hexagonal wurzite structure and the diameter of the nanorods increase with increase in the Sn contents. The optical parameters of the Sn-doped ZnO nanorods such as the absorption coefficients, optical bandgaps, Urbach energies, refractive indices, dispersion parameters, dielectric constants, and optical conductivities were gained from the transmittance and reflectance results. In the PL spectra, the NBE peaks in the UV region decrease and blue-shift with increase in the Sn contents. In addition, the DLE peaks in the visible region of the nanorods shift toward low-energy region when the ZnO nanorods doped with various Sn contents.

Well-crystalline $SnO_2$ nanoparticles of 4-5 nm size with different In contents were synthesized by hydrothermal process at relatively low temperature and characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), microRaman spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Indium incorporation in $SnO_2$ lattice is seen to cause a lattice expansion, increasing the average size of the nanoparticles. The fundamental phonon vibration modes of $SnO_2$ lattice suffer a broadening, and surface modes associated to particle size shift gradually with the increase of In content. Incorporation of In drastically enhances the PL emission of $SnO_2$ nanoparticles associated to deep electronic defect levels. Although In incorporation reduces the band gap energy of $SnO_2$ crystallites only marginally, it affects drastically their dye degradation behaviors under UV illumination. While the UV degradation of methylene blue (MB) by undoped $SnO_2$ nanoparticles occurs through the production of intermediate byproducts such as azure A, azure B, and azure C, direct mineralization of MB takes place for In-doped $SnO_2$ nanoparticles.
