녹색발광을 하는 스피넬 구조의 ZnGa$_2$O$_4$:Mn 형광체박막을 산소분압비를 증착변수로 이용하여 rf 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 증착하였으며, 증착된 박막을 산화, 진공+질소 분위기에서 각각 열처리를 하였다. 증착시 산소분압비 및 열처리시 산소분위기가 형광체 박막의 성장 및 발광특성에 미치는 영향을 관찰하였다. 열처리시 박막의 산화를 막을수록 발광특성이 향상되는 것으로 나타났다.

Superstrate pin amorphous silicon thin-film(a-Si:H) solar cells are prepared on $SnO_2:F$ and ZnO:Al transparent conducting oxides(TCO) in order to see the effect of TCO/p-layers on a-Si:H solar cell operation. The solar cells prepared on textured ZnO:Al have higher open circuit voltage VOC than cells prepared on $SnO_2:F$. Presence of thin microcrystalline p-type silicon layer(${\mu}c-Si:H$) between ZnO:Al and p a-SiC:H plays a major role by causing improvement in fill factor as well as $V_{OC}$ of a-Si:H solar cells prepared on ZnO:Al TCO. Without any treatment of pi interface, we could obtain high $V_{OC}$ of 994mV while keeping fill factor(72.7%) and short circuit current density $J_{SC}$ at the same level as for the cells on $SnO_2:F$ TCO. This high $V_{OC}$ value can be attributed to modification in the current transport in this region due to creation of a potential barrier.

AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film were prepared by FTS(Facing Target Sputtering) system. Change the sputtering conditions, AZO thin film deposited the lower resistivity(<$10-4{\Omega}cm$) so it can use to be a display application electrode. In this study, the electrical and crystallographic effects of target type have been investigated. The crystal structure was studied by XRD and the resistivity of AZO thin film was obtained by the four-point probe.

In this study, Al doped ZnO(AZO) thin film were prepared on glass substrates by FTS(Facing Targets Sputtering) system. We investigated electrical, optical and structural properties of AZO thin film with the substrate temperature of the R.T, $100^{\circ}C$, $200^{\circ}C$ and the post-annealing. The crystallinity of AZO thin film was increased with increasing the substrate temperature and post-annealing temperature $600^{\circ}C$. The remarkable change of the resistivity with the substrate temperature didn't found and the resistivity with post-annealing was increased slightly.

Flat-panel displays have been growing as an essential everyday product in the current information/communication ages in the unprecedented speed. The forward-coming applications require light-weightness, higher speed, higher resolution, and lower power consumption, along with the relevant cost. Such specifications demand for a new concept-based materials and applications, unlike Si-based technologies, such as amorphous Si and polycrystalline Si thin film transistors. Since the introduction of the first concept on the oxide-based thin film transistors by Hosono et al., amorphous oxide thin film transistors have been gaining academic/industrial interest, owing to the facile synthesis and reproducible processing despite of a couple of shortcomings. The current work places its main emphasis on the binary oxides composed of ZnO and SnO2. RF sputtering was applied to the fabrication of amorphous oxide thin film devices, in the form of bottom-gated structures involving highly-doped Si wafers as gate materials and thermal oxide (SiO2) as gate dielectrics. The physical/chemical features were characterized using atomic force microscopy for surface morphology, spectroscopic ellipsometry for optical parameters, X-ray diffraction for crystallinity, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy for identification of chemical states. The combined characterizations on Zn-Sn-O thin films are discussed in comparison with the device performance based on thin film transistors involving Zn-Sn-O thin films as channel materials, with the aim to optimizing high-performance thin film transistors.

In this work, the nanocrystalline ZnO/polycrystalline (poly) aluminum nitride (AlN)/Si structure was fabricated for humidity sensor applications based on surface acoustic wave (SAW). In this structure, the ZnO film was used as sensing material layer. These ZnO and AlN(0002) were deposited by so-gel process and a pulse reactive magnetron sputtering, respectively. These experimental results showed that the obtained SAW velocity on AlN film was about 5128 m/s at $h/\lambda$=0.0125 (h and $\lambda$ is thickness and wavelength, respectively). For ZnO sensing layers coated on AlN, films have hexagonal wurtzite structure and nanometer particle size. The crystalline size of ZnO films annealed at 400, 500, and 600 $^{\circ}C$ is 10.2, 29.1, and 38 nm, respectively. Surface of the film exhibits spongy which can adsorb steam in the air. The best quality of the ZnO film was obtained with annealing temperature at 500 $^{\circ}Cis$. The change in frequency response (127.9~127.85 MHz) of the SAW humidity sensor based on ZnO/AlN structure was measured along the change in humidity (41~69%). The structural properties of thin films wereinvestigated by XRD and SEM.

We prepared the AZO thin film with different $O_2$ gas flow rate. the AZO thin films were deposited on glass substrate at room temperature, working gas pressure of 1mTorr. the electrical, structural and optical properties of AZO thin films were investigated by using Hall Effect measurement system, X-ray Diffractometer (XRD) and UV-VIS spectrometer. From the results, we could obtain that AZO thin film with low resistivity of $8.5{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ was exhibited in specific $O_2$ gas flow rate. Also, the transmittance of over 80% in visible range was observed in specific $O_2$ gas flow rate. In all of the AZO thin film with the transmittance of over 80%, diffraction peak of (002) direction was observed, while amorphous peak was observed in the AZO thin film with the low transmittance.

Zinc Oxide(ZnO) thin films on Si(100) substrate were deposited by RF magnetron reactive sputtering. The charcteristics of ZnO thin films on argon/oxygen(Ar/O$_2$)gas ratios RF power and substrate temperature were investigated by XRD, SEM, and AFM analyses. C-axis preferred orientation resistivity and surface roughness highly depended on Ar/O$_2$gas ratios. The resistivity of ZnO thin films rapidly increased with increasing oxygen ratio and the resistivity value of 9$\times$10$^{7}$ $\Omega$cm was obtained at a working pressure of 10 mTorr with Ar/O$_2$=50/50. The surface roughness was also improved with increasing oxygen ratio and the ZnO films deposited with Ar/O$_2$=50/50 showed the excellent roughness value of 28.7$\AA$.
