  • Ferroelectric $LiNbO_3$ thin films were grown directly on Si(100) substrates by 13.55MHz RF magnetron sputtering system using a ceramic target ($Nb_2O_5/Li_2C0_3$ = 51.4/48.6). Because high temperature process have to avoided to prevent degradation of the interface (insulator/Si), $LiNbO_3$ thin films were deposited below $300^{\circ}C$. After as-deposited films were performed RTA treatments in an oxygen ambient at $600^{\circ}C$ for 60s, electrical measurements performed films before and after anneal treatment. In high field region, the leakage current density of the films after annealing was deceased about 4order and the resistivity of these was increased to about 5\times 10^{11} \Omega \cdot cm$ at 500kV/cm. In accumulation region of C-V curve, we calculated dielectric constant of thin film $LiNbO_3$ as 27.9 which is close to that of bulk value.

  • A new precursor [$Zr(acac)_{3}(H_{2}O)_{2}$] was synthesized by Sonochemical technique and used to deposit thin $ZrO_{2}$ film on quartz and ceramic substrate via ultrasonic aerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition (UAACVD) at 300 ${^{\circ}C}$ in oxygen environment followed by annealing of the sample for 2-3 minutes at 500 ${^{\circ}C}$ in nitrogen ambient. The molecular structure of the precursor determined by single crystal X-ray analysis revealed that the molecules are linked through intermolecular hydrogen bonds forming pseudo six and eight membered rings. DSC and TGA/FTIR techniques were used to determine thermal behavior and decomposition temperature of the precursor and nature of evolved gas products. The optical measurement of annealed $ZrO_{2}$ film with tetragonal phase shows optical energy band gap of 5.01 eV. The particle size, morphology, surface structure and composition of deposited films were investigated by XRD, SEM and EDX.

  • Thin films of europium-doped yttrium oxide ($Y_2O_3$:Eu) were prepared on Si (100) substrates by using a radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. After the deposition, the films were annealed at $1000^{\circ}C$ in an air ambient for 1 hour. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the $Y_2O_3$:Eu films had a polycrystalline cubic ${\alpha}-Y_2O_3$ structure. The as-deposited films showed no photoluminescence (PL), which was due to poor crystalline quality of the films. The crystallinity of the $Y_2O_3$:Eu films was significantly improved by annealing. The strong red PL emission was observed from the annealed $Y_2O_3$:Eu films and the highest intensity peak was centered at around 613 nm. This emission peak originated from the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of the trivalent Eu ions occupying the $C_2$ sites in the cubic ${\alpha}-Y_2O_3$ lattice. The broad PL excitation band was observed at wavelengths below 280 nm, which was attributed to the charge transfer transition of the trivalent Eu ion.

  • Vanadium oxide ($VO_{x}$) thin films are very good candidate material for uncooked infrared (IR) detectors due to their high temperature coefficient of resistance (TCR) at room temperature. But, the deposition of $VO_{x}$ thin films showing good electrical properties is very difficult in micro bolometer fabrication process using sacrificial layer removal because of its low process temperature and thickness of thin films less than 1000${\AA}$. This paper presents a new fabrication process of $VO_{x}$ thin films having high TCR and low resistance. Through sandwich structure of $VO_{x}$(100${\AA}$)/V(80${\AA}$)/$VO_{x}$(500${\AA}$) by sputter method and post-annealing at oxygen ambient, we have achieved high TCR more than -2%/$^{\circ}C$ and low resistance less than $10K\Omega$ at room temperature.

  • [ $HfO_2$ ] thin films were deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ on p-type Si (100) substrates using $HfO_2(HfO_xN_y)$ as the precursor by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition and were annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ in nitrogen plasma ambient. Compared with $HfO_2$, nitrogen plasma annealed $HfO_2$ show good chemical stability, higher crystallization temperature, lower leakage current and thermal stability. Leakage current density of nitrogen plasma annealed $HfO_2$ is approximately one order of magnitude lower than that of $HfO_2$ for the same EOT. The improvement in electrical characteristics of nitrogen plasma annealed $HfO_2$ can be explained by the better thermal stability due to nitrogen incorporation.

  • Ta-Ti metal alloy is proposed for alternate gate electrode of ULSI MOS device. Ta-Ti alloy was deposited directly on $SiO_2$ by a co-sputtering method and good interface property was obtained. The sputtering power of each metal target was 100W. Thermal and chemical stability of the electrode was studied by annealing at $500^{\circ}C$ and $600^{\circ}C$ in Ar ambient. X-ray diffraction was measured to study interface reaction and EDX(energy dispersive X-ray) measurement was performed to investigate composition of Ta and Ti element. Electrical properties were evaluated on MOS capacitor, which indicated that the work function of Ta-Ti metal alloy was ${\sim}4.1eV$ compatible with NMOS devices. The measured sheet resistance of alloy was lower than that of poly silicon.

  • ZnO is a promising material to make high efficiency violet or blue light emitting diodes (LEDs) for its large binding energy (60meV) and big bandgap. But the high quality p-type conduction of ZnO is a dilemma to achieve LEDs with it. In present study, we presented a reliable method to prepare ZnO thin films on (100)silicon substrates by RF magnetron sputtering in the mixture ambient of $N_2$ and $O_2$, accompanying with low pressure annealing in the sputtering chamber in $O_2$ at $600^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ respectively. X-ray diffraction and Hail effect with Van der Paul method were performed to test ZnO films. Seeback effect was also carried out to identify carrier types in ZnO films and showed the N-doped ZnO film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ had achieved p-type conduction.

  • In this paper, Ni-V alloy was studied with different structures and thickness. In case of Ni-V and Ni-V/Co/TiN, low resistive Ni silicide was formed after one step RTP (Rapid Thermal Process) with temperature range from $400^{\circ}C$ to $600^{\circ}C$ for 30sec in vacuum. After furnace annealing with temperatures range from $550^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$ for 30min in nitrogen ambient, Ni-V single structure shows the best thermal stability compare with the other ones. To enhance the thermal stability up to 650oC and find the optimal thickness of Ni silicide, different thickness of Ni-V was studied in this work. Stable sheet resistance was obtained through Ni-V single structure with optimal Ni-V thickness.

  • $SrBi_{22.4}Ta_2O_9$ (SBT) thin films of 70~150 nm thickness were prepared on platinized silicon substrates by Liquid Source Misted Chemical Deposition (LSMCD) process, and their microstructure, feroelectric and leakage current characteristics were investigated. By annealing at $800^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in oxygen ambient, SBT films were fully crystallized to the Bi layered perovskite structure without preferred orientation. The grain size of the LSMCD- derived SBT films was about 100nm, and was not varied with the film thickness. $2P_r$ and $E_c$ of the SBT films increased with decreasing the film thickness, and the 70nm-thick SBT film exhibited $2P_r$ of 17.8 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and $E_c$ of 74kV/cm at applied voltage of 5V. Within the film thickness range of 70~150nm, the relative dielectric permittivity of the LSMCD-derived SBT film decreased with decreasing the film thickness. Leakage current densities lower than $10^{-7}\textrm{A/cm}^2$ at 5V were observed in the SBT films thicker than 125nm.

  • Recently, we have developed the local oxidization and hydrogenization method for graphene layer using atomic force microscope(AFM) tip at room temperature and ambient pressure. With this method we could create locally oxidized or hydrogenized area on the graphene layer with various size from nanometer to micrometer scale, by controlling the amplitude and polarity of the voltage supplied between conducting AFM tip and the graphene layer. We investigated the chemical states of functionalized C atoms in the graphene layer using scanning photoelectron microscopy. By measuring C 1s core level X-ray Photoemission Spectra of the C atoms and suitable fitting process carried on the measured spectra, we could obtain the fraction of oxidization and hydrogenization under various condition, and the evolution of each chemical state during thermal annealing process.
