Zinc oxide (ZnO) films were deposited by an RF magnetron sputtering system with the RF power of 200W and 300W and flow rate of oxygen gases of 20 and 30 sccm, in order to research the growth of ZnO on carbon doped silicon oxide (SiOC) thin film. The reflectance of SiOC film on Si film deposited by the sputtering decreased with increasing the oxygen flow rate in the range of long wavelength. In comparison between ZnO/Si and ZnO/SiOC/Si thin film, the reflectance of ZnO/SiOC/Si film was inversed that of ZnO/Si film in the rage of 200~1000 nm. The transmittance of ZnO film increased with increasing the oxygen gas flow rate because of the transition from conduction band to oxygen interstitial band due to the oxygen interstitial (Oi) sites. The low reflectance and the high transmittance of ZnO film was suitable properties to use for the front electrode in the display or solar cell.

라디오 진동수 스퍼터를 이용하여 실리콘(110) 기판위에 증착시간을 60분, 120분 그리고 180을 변화시켜서 산화아연 박막을 만들었다. ZnO₂ 박막의 입자 성장면을 X선 회절 장치를 써서 분석한 결과 박막의 주 성장면(002)면과 (103)면의 방향이 증착 시간의 영향을 많이 받았다. 전자 주사 현미경을 통하여 ZnO₂박막의 입자 성장을 관찰 한 결과 ZnO₂박막이 증착 초기에는 성장이 정체되는 인큐베이션 시간이 필요하다가 일정 시간이 지나면 다시 입자 성장이 일어나는 현상이 관찰 되었다. ZnO₂박막의 화학 분석을 한 결과는 증착 시간의 증가가 ZnO₂박막내의 산소의 양과는 변화가 없었지만 Zn의 성분에 변화가 관찰 되어서 박막의 증착 시간이 박막내의 Zn성분에는 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다.

ZnO:Al thin film for application to FBAR's bottom electrode using ZnO piezoelectric thin film were prepared by FTS, in order to improve the crystallographic properties of ZnO thin films because the ZnO:Al thin film and ZnO thin films structure is equal each other. So we prepared the ZnO:Al thin film with oxygen gas flow rate. Thickness and c-axis preferred orientation and electric properties of ZnO:Al bottom electrode were evaluated by $\alpha$-step, XRD and 4-point probe..

Zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film was deposited on Si substrates using polycrystalline (poly) 3C-SiC buffer layer, in which the ZnO film was grown by sol-gel method. Physical characteristics of the grown ZnO film was investigated experimentally by means of SEM, XRD, FT-IR (Furier Transform-Infrared spectrum), and AFM. XRD pattern was proved that the grown ZnO film on 3C-SiC layers had highly (002) orientation with low FWHM (Full width of half maxium). These results showed that ZnO thin film grown on 3C-SiC buffer layers can be used for various piezoelectric fields and M/NEMS applications.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of NO sensor using ZnO thin film by RF magnetron sputter system. The sensitivity, working temperature, and response time of sputtered pure ZnO thin film and added catalysts such as Pt, Pd, Al, Ti on those films were measured and analyzed. The sensitivity of pure ZnO thin film at working temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ is 0.875 in NO gas concentration of 0.046 ppm. At same volume of the gas in chamber, measuring sensitivity of 1.87 at $250^{\circ}C$ was the case of Pt/ZnO thin film. The ZnO thin films added with catalyst materials were showed higher sensitivity, lower working temperature and faster adsorption characteristics to NO gas than pure ZnO thin film.

The ZnO thin films were prepared by the FTS (facing target sputtering) system, which enables to provide high density plasma and a high deposition rate at a low working gas pressure. We introduced the AZO thin film in order to improve the crystallographic properties of ZnO thin film because of the AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film has an equal crystal structure to the ZnO thin film. ZnO/AZO thin films were deposited at a different oxygen gas flow ratio, R.T. 2mTorr working pressure and a 0.8A sputtering current. The film thickness and c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO/AZO/glass thin films were measured by ${\alpha}$-step and an x-ray diffraction (XRD) instrument. In the results, we could prepare the ZnO thin film with c-axis preferred orientation of about 6$^{\circ}$ on substrate temperature R.T. at O$_2$ gas flo rate 0.5.

We fabricate the conductive zinc oxide(ZnO) thin film using UV-enhanced atomic layer deposition. ZnO is semiconductor with a wide band gap(3.37eV) and transparent in the visible region. ZnO can be deposited with various method, such as metal organic chemical vapour deposition, magnetron sputtering and pulsed laser ablation deposition. In this experiment, ZnO thin films was deposited by atomic layer deposition using diethylzinc (DEZ) and D.I water as precursors with UV irradiation during water dosing. As a function of UV exposure time, the resistivity of ZnO thin films decreased dramatically. We were able to confirm that UV irradiation is one of the effective way to improve conductivity of ZnO thin film. The resistivity was investigated by 4 point probe. Additionally, we confirm the thin film composition is ZnO by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We anticipate that this UV-enhanced ZnO thin film can be applied to electronics or photonic devices as transparent electrode.

ZnO film has been investigated during several decades because it has excellent optical property like a transmittance among the range of visible light for using transparent conducting oxide (TCO) films. But ZnO film has not enough conductivity for applying to TCO devices. Therefore we synthesized platinum nanoparticles and they incorporated into ZnO due to improve the electrical property of ZnO film by sol-gel synthesis method. Also, we fabricated photosensitive ZnO thin film containing Pt nanoparticles by sol-gel process and spin-coating for using photochemical solution deposition. Photosensitive ZnO film could carry out the direct-pattern which allow the etching process to be convenient. The optical and electrical properties of ZnO film with or without various atomic percent of Pt nanoparticles annealed at various temperatures were investigated by using UV-Vis spectroscopy and 4-point probe method, respectively. We characterized the ZnO thin film containing Pt nanoparticles using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

Off-axis 고주파 마그네트론 스퍼터링법으로 사파이어(0001) 기판 위에 이종에피텍셜 ZnO 박막을 제조하였다. ZnO 박막의 결정성은 증착압력, RF power 그리고 기판온도의 공정조건 변화에 많은 영향을 받았으며, 스퍼터링된 입자의 적당한 kinetic energy와 기판표면에서의 표면이동도(surface mobility)가 조화를 이룰 때 결정성이 우수한 이종에피텍셜 박막을 을 얻을 수 있었다. 이종에피텍셜 ZnO 박막의 Photoluminescence(PL) 특성 측정 결과, 저온(17K)에서 약 3.36 eV의 자외선 영역 발광을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 상온에서도 3.28 eV의 자외선 영역 발광을 관찰할 수 있었다. ZnO 박막을 산소 분위기에서 열처리함에 따라 결정성은 향상되는 반면 자외선 영역의 발광은 급격히 감소하는 경향을 보였다.

본 연구에서는 박막 증착시 발생되는 $\gamma$-전자와 같은 고에너지 입자들의 막 충돌에 의한 손상이 적은 대향타겟식 스퍼터링 장치를 이용하여 $SiO_2$/Si 기판강에 ZnO 박막을 제작하였으며, 막의 결정성에 악 영향을 미치는 초기 성장층을 제어 할 수 있는 ZnO buffer-layer를 도입하여 박막의 결정학적 특성을 알아보았다. 제작된 박막의 결정성 및 c-축 우선배향성은 XRD를 사용하여 측정하였다. 측정 결과 ZnO buffer layer의 두께 10, 20 nm와 가스압력 1 mTorr일 때 ZnO 박막의 결정성이 가장 우수함을 알 수 있었다.
