In this study we present the effect of annealing temperatures on the structural, electrical and optical characteristics of Ga-doped ZnO(GZO) films. GZO target have been deposited on corning 7059 glass substrates by DC sputtering. GZO films were annealed at temperatures of 400, 500, $600^{\circ}C$ in air ambient for 20 min. Experimental resulted in as-grown film shows the resistivity of $6{\times}10^{-1}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and transmittance under 85%, whereas the electrical and optical properties of film annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ are enhanced up to $1.9{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and 90%, respectively.

Thin films of vanadium oxide(V$O_x$) have been deposited by r.f. magnetron sputtering from $V_2$$O_5$ prget in gas mixture of argon and oxygen. Crystal structure, surface morphology, chemical composition and bonding properties of films in-situ annealed in $O_2$ ambient with various heat-treatment conditions are characterized through XRD, SEM, AES, RBS and FTIR measurements. The filrns annealed below 200 $^{\circ}C$are amorphous, and those annealed above 30$0^{\circ}C$ are polycrystalline. The growth of grains and the transition of vanadium oxide into the higher oxide have been obsenred with increasing the annealing temperature and time. The increase of O/V ratio with increasing the annealing temperature and time is attributed to the diffusion of oxygen and the partial filling of oxygen vacancies. It is observed that the oxygen atoms located on the V-0 plane of $V_2$$O_5$ layer participate more readily in the oxidation process.

In this paper, frequency characteristic of FBAR was studied as a function of annealing temperature. we have used Li dopant to enhance electrical properties of ZnO thin film. Li:ZnO thin film was deposited on Al(300 nm)/$SiO_2$(500 nm)/Si($500\;{\mu}m$) and each layer was patterned. Thermal treatment was executed in range of between 300 and $600^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ ambient. We observed that the resistivity of ZnO is enhanced under the influence of Li doping and return loss in FBAR frequency properties is improved through annealing.

ZTO/GZO double layered films were prepared on unheated non-alkali glass substrates. ZTO films were deposited by RF/DC hybrid magnetron co-sputtering using ZnO (RF) target and $SnO_2$ (DC) targets, and then GZO films were deposited by DC magnetron sputtering using an GZO ($Ga_2O_3$:5.57 wt%) target. These films were post-annealed at temperature of 200, $300^{\circ}C$ in air and vacuum ambient for 30 min. In the case of post-annealing in air, ZTO/GZO double layer showed relatively low resistivity change, compared to GZO single layer. Furthermore, ZTO/GZO double layer revealed low WVTR, compared to GZO single layer. Therefore, it can be confirmed that ZTO film doing a role with barrier for water or oxygen diffusion.

The electrical stability of ZnO: Al thin films deposited on glass substrate by the RF magnetron sputtering method have been modified by a hydrogen annealing treatment and $SiO_2$ protection layer. AZO thin films were deposited at room temperature and different RF powers of 50, 100, 150, and 200 W to optimize the AZO film growth condition. The lowest value of resistivity of $9.44{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ was obtained at 2 mtorr, room temperature, and a power level of 150 W. Then, the AZO thin films were annealed at $250-400^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in hydrogen ambient. The minimum resistivity obtained was $8.32{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ as-annealed at $300^{\circ}C$. The electrical properties were enhanced by the hydrogen annealing treatment. After a 72 h damp-heat treatment in harsh conditions of a water steam at $110^{\circ}C$ for four representative samples, a degradation of electrical properties was observed. The sample of hydrogen-annealed AZO thin films with $SiO_2$ protection layer showed a slight degradation ratio(17%) of electrical properties and a preferable transmittance of 90%. The electrical stability of AZO thin films had been modified by hydrogen annealing treatment and $SiO_2$ protection layer.

알바이트 분말시료, 박편시료, TEM 시편용 시료를 이용하여 광학현미경 상에서 등온가열 실험을 수행하였다. 시료의 방향성은 광학현미경 및 XRD를 통하여 점검하였으며 TEM의 전자회절도형을 통해 확인하였다. 분말시료의 경우 $1030^{\circ}C$-12 hr에서, TEM 시편용 시료는 $1060^{\circ}C$-6 hr에서 부분 용융이 일어나며 이 이상의 온도에서는 용융으로 인한 시편두께 증가 및 비정질상으로의 변화로 인하여 알바이트 미세구조의 TEM 영상 획득이 어려웠다. 광학현미경과 TEM의 연계를 통한 알바이트 등온가열 실험 결과 알바이트 tweed 미세구조의 TEM 영상을 얻을 수 있는 최적 조건은 대기압 하에서는 $1050^{\circ}C$-12 hr로 파악되었다. 전자현미경 내 직접가열(in situ TEM heating) 실험의 경우 상기한 실험조건에 비해 고진공 상태임을 고려하면 $1050^{\circ}C$보다 다소 높은 온도에서 알바이트 tweed 미세구조를 직접 관찰할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다

This paper describes the fabrication of AlN thin films containing iron and iron nitride particles, and the magnetic and electrical properties of such films. Fe-N-Al alloy films were deposited in Ar and $N_2$ mixtures at ambient temperature using Fe/Al composite targets in a two-facing-target DC sputtering system. X-ray diffraction results showed that the Fe-N-Al films were amorphous, and after annealing for 5 h both AlN and bcc-Fe/bct-$FeN_x$ phases appeared. Structure changes in the $FeN_x$ phases were explained in terms of occupied nitrogen atoms. Electron diffraction and transmission electron microscopy observations revealed that iron and iron nitride particles were randomly dispersed in annealed AlN films. The grain size of magnetic particles ranged from 5 to 20 nm in diameter depending on annealing conditions. The saturation magnetization as a function of the annealing time for the $Fe_{55}N_{20}Al_{25}$ films when annealed at 573, 773 and 873 K. At these temperatures, the amount of iron/iron nitride particles increased with increasing annealing time. An increase in the saturation magnetization is explained qualitatively in terms of the amount of such magnetic particles in the film. The resistivity increased monotonously with decreasing Fe content, being consistent with randomly dispersed iron/iron nitride particles in the AlN film. The coercive force was evaluated to be larger than $6.4{\times}10^3Am^{-1}$ (80 Oe). This large value is ascribed to a residual stress restrained in the ferromagnetic particles, which is considered to be related to the present preparation process.

$Bi_{4}Ti_{3}O_{12}$ (BiT) thin films were grown on the Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/si substrate using a metal organic decomposition (MOD) method. Effects of oxygen annealing on the structural properties and dielectric properties of the BiT thin films were investigated. The BiT films were well developed when rapid thermal annealed at $>500^{\circ}C$ in oxygen ambient. For the film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$, no crystalline phase was observed under oxygen free annealing atmosphere while its crystallinity was significantly enhanced as the oxygen pressure increased. The BiT film also exhibited a smooth surface with defect free grains. A high dielectric constant and a low dielectric loss were achieved satisfactory in the frequency range from 75 kHz to 1 MHz. Especially, the BiT film, annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ and 10 torr oxygen pressure, showed good dielectric properties: dielectric constant of 51 and dielectric loss of 0.2 % at 100 kHz. Its leakage current was also considerably improved, being as $0.62\;nA/cm^2$ at 1 V. Therefore, it is considered that the oxygen annealing has effects on an enhancement of crystallinity and dielectric properties of the BiT films.

We have investigated that the effect of post annealing on the structural and electrical properties of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$ thin films. The BST thin films were deposited on n-type 4H-silicon carbide(SiC) using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The deposition was carried out in oxygen ambient 100mTorr for 5 minutes, which results in about 300nm-thick BST films. For the BST/4H-SiC, 200nm thick silver was deposited on the BST films bye-beam evaporation. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the BST films revealed that the crystalline structure of BST thin films has been improved after post-annealing at $850^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour. The root mean square (RMS) surface roughness of the BST film measured by using a AFM was increased after post-annealing from 5.69nm to 11.49nm. The electrical properties of BST thin film were investigated by measuring the capacitance-voltage characteristics of a silver/BST/4H-SiC structure. After the post-annealing, dielectric constant of the film was increased from 159.67 to 355.33, which can be ascribed to the enhancement of the crystallinity of BST thin films.
