BiSrCaCuO thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion beam sputtering method. 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mixed with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. At early stages of the atomic layer by layer deposition, two dimensional epitaxial growth which covers the substrate surface would be suppressed by the stress and strain caused by the lattice misfit, then three dimensional growth takes place. Since Cu element is the most difficult to oxidize, only Sr and Bi react with each other predominantly, and forms a buffer layer on the substrate in an amorphous-like structure, which is changed to $SrBi_2O_4$ by in-situ anneal.

BiCMOS technology, which combines CMOS and bipolar technology, offers the possibility of achieving both very high density and high performance. In this paper, the characteristics of BiCMOS and CMOS circuits, especilly the delay time is studied. BiCMOS inverter, which has high drive ability because of bipolar transistor, drives high load capacitance and has low-power characteristics because the current flows only during switching transient just like the CMOS gate. BiCMOS inverter has the less dependence on load capacitance than CMOS inverter. SPICE that has been used for electronic circuit analysis is chosen to simulate these circuits and the characteristics is discussed.

High quality BSCCO thin films have been fabricated by means of an ion beam sputtering at various substrate temperatures, T$\_$sub/, and ozone gas pressures, PO$_3$. The correlation diagrams of the BSCCO phases appeared against T$\_$sub/ and PO$_3$ are established in the 2212 and 2223 compositional films. In spite of 2212 compositional sputtering, Bi2201 and Bi2223 phases as well as Bi2212 one come out as stable phases depending on T$\_$sub/ and PO$_3$. From these results, the thermodynamic evaluations of ΔH and ΔS, which are related with Gibbs' free energy change for single Bi2212 or Bi2223 phase are performed.

In this study, we fabricated Bi-2223/Ag high temperature superconducting tapes using PIT(Powder-In-Tube) process to apply the superconducting magnet, cable and etc. It is inevitable to deform the superconducting taps with axial strain for application. Therefore, for the characterization of the strain sensitivity of the superconducting properties, the degradation of Bi-2223/Ag tapes due to axial strain were investigated by measuring the critical current as a function of applied tension strain and external magnetic field. The critical current of Bi-2223/Ag tapes were decreased slightly up to 0.3∼0.4% applied strain but, drastically decreased more than these strains. Superconducting filament cores consisted of brittle ceramic fibers were broken easily by the large strain and current path were decreased simultaneously.

Bi-2212 HTS tube was fabricated by centrifugal forming and partial melting processes. Bi-2212 bulk tube has been optimized to achieve smooth surface and uniform thickness. The slurry was prepared in the mixing ratio of 10:1 between Bi-2212 powder and binder and initially charged into the rotating mold under the speed of 300~450 rpm. Heat-treatment was performed at the temperature ranges of 860~89$0^{\circ}C$ in air for partial melting. the HTS tube fabricated by centrifugal forming process at 89$0^{\circ}C$ under the rotating speed of 450 rpm was highly densified and the plate-like grains with more than 20${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ were well oriented along the rotating axis. The measured Tc and J$_{c}$ at 10K on specimen heat treated at 89$0^{\circ}C$ was around 85 K and 1,200 A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ respectively.y.

Phase intergrowth some kinds of the Bi$_2$Sr$_2$Ca$\_$n-1/Cu$\_$n/O$\_$y/ phases is observed in the thin film fabrication at ultralow co-deposition with multi targets by means of ion beam sputtering. The molar fraction of the Bi2212 phase in the mixed crystal of the grown films is investigated as a function of the applied ozone pressure and the substrate temperature. The activation energy for the phase transformation from the Bi2201 to the Bi2212 is estimated in terms of the Avrami equation. This study reveals that the formation of a liquid phase contributes significantly to the construction of the Bi2212 phase in the thin films, differing from the bulk synthesis.

Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O thin films have been fabricated by sputter deposition method. During the deposition, 10 and 90 wt%-ozone/oxygen mixture gas of typical pressure of $1\sim9\times10^{-5}$ Torr are supplied with ultraviolet light irradiation for oxidation. XRD and RHEED investigations reveal out that a buffer layer with some different compositions is formed at the early deposition stage of less than 10 units cell and then Bi-2201 oriented along the c-axis is grown.

We fabricated thick film monopole antennas using Mo-doped BiNbO$_4$ ceramics and investigated their electrical properties as a function of the Mo-doping concentration. Compared with undoped BiNbO$_4$ ceramics, 10 at.% Mo-doping improved microwave dielectric properties of ceramics by increased sintered density as well as decreased space charge density. Further increase in the Mo-doping concentration caused formation of Bi$_2$MoO$_{6}$ phases, resulting in deterioration of the microwave characteristics. The gain and bandwidth of the ceramic monopole antenna were also greatly affected by the Mo-doping concentration. When Mo-doping concentration was 10 at.%, highest gain of -0.7dBi with lowest bandwidth of 30% at 2.3GHz was obtained.

BSCCO thin films fabricated by using the evaporation method. As a result, although the composition of Bi2212 was set up, the phase of Bi2201, Bi2212 and Bi2223 was formed. The formation area of these stable phases is indicated as inclined line in the direction of the right lower end from the Arrhenius plot of the substrate temperature-oxidation gas pressure, and are distributed in very small area. The activation energy for the phase transformation from the Bi2201 to the Bi2212 is estimated in terms of the Avrami equation.

BiSrCaCuO superconducting ceramic thick films were fabricated by chemical process. The x ray diffraction pattern of the BiSrCaCuO thick films contained 110 K phase. The critical temperature of BiSrCaCuO thick films were Tc=95 K-97 K. The critical temperature and critical density of BiSrCaCuO thick film grown at $750 {\circ}C$ were Tc = 95 K and $Jc= 7{\times}10^{6} A/cm^{2}$ We obtained high-Jc as-grown BiSrCaCuO on an MgO substrate by low fressure CVD.
