  • Structural properties of Cu-Ni alloy films, such as preferred orientation, crystallite size, in-ter-planar spacing, cross-sectional morphology, and electrical resistivity, are investigated in terms of tar-get configurations that are used in the film deposition by means of magnetron co-sputtering. Two different target configurations are considered in this study: a dual-type configuration in which two separate tar-gets (Cu and Ni) and different bias types (RF and DC) are used and a Ni-on-Cu type configuration in which Ni chips are attached to a Cu target. The dual-type configuration appears to have some advantages over the Ni-on-Cu type regarding the accurate control of atomic composition of the deposited Cu-Ni alloy. However, the dual-type-produced film exhibits a porous and columnar structure, the relatively large internal stress, and the high electrical resistivity, which are mainly due to the relatively low mobility of adatoms. The affects of thermal treatment and deposition conditions on the structural and electrical properties of dual-type Cu-Ni films are also discussed.

  • Chalcopyrite $CuInSe_2$ (CIS) thin films were prepared without Se- / S-containing gas by co-sputtering using $CuSe_2$ and $InSe_2$ selenide-targets and rapid thermal annealing. The grain size increased to a maximum of 54.68 nm with a predominant (112) plane. The tetragonal distortion parameter ${\eta}$ decreased and the inter-planar spacing $d_{(112)}$ increased in the RTA-treated CIS thin films annealed at a $400^{\circ}C$, which indicates better crystal quality. The increased carrier concentration of RTA-treated p-type CIS thin films led to a decrease in resistivity due to an increase in Cu composition at annealing temperatures ${\geq}350^{\circ}C$. The optical band gap energy ($E_g$) of CIS thin films decreased to 1.127 eV in RTA-treated CIS thin films annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ due to the improved crystallinity, elevated carrier concentration and decreased In composition.

  • Al-N co-doped ZnO films were fabricated on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at $450^{\circ}C$ by magnetron sputtering. Target was ZnO ceramic mixed with $2wt%Al_2O_3$. XRD spectra show that as-grown and $600^{\circ}C$ annealed films are prolonged along crystal c-axis. However they are not prolonged in (001) plane vertical to c-axix. The films annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ are not prolonged in any directions. Codoping makes ZnO films unidirectional variation. XPS show that Al content hardly varies and N escapes with increasing annealing temperature from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. The electric properties of as-grown films were tested by Hall Effect with Van der Pauw configuration show some of them to be p-type conduction.

  • Cu는 금속 박막재료로서 높은 전기전도성을 지니고 있을 뿐만 아니라 Ag, Al, Pt 등 보다 비용이 저렴하여, 높은 전기전도성을 필요로 하는 박막 재료로써 폭넓게 사용되고 있다. 그러나, 낮은 기계적 특성을 지니고 있어서 interconnect와 같은 작은 단면적의 배선재료로 사용될 경우, 높은 전류밀도에 따른 electromigration 현상에 의하여 hillock 또는 void의 형성 등 박막재료의 변형이 생기게 되어서 전자소자의 수명이 단축된다는 단점이 있다. TiN은 금속재료 못지않은 높은 전기 전도성을 지니고 있을 뿐만 아니라, 금속재료에 비하여 높은 기계적 특성과 녹는점을 지니고 있어 다양한 분야로 사용되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Cu와 TiN composite 박막을 soda-lime glass위에 증착하여 낮은 비저항 뿐만 아니라 Cu와 비교하여 기계적 특성이 향상된 박막을 제작하고자 하였다. Cu와 TiN composite 박막 증착을 위하여 DC reactive magnetron co-sputtering 장비를 사용하였으며, Cu와 Ti 타겟 power, Ar:N2 유량비(Flow rate)을 변화시켜 Cu와 Ti의 조성비 및 TiN의 결정성을 조절하였고, 이를 통하여 박막의 TiN 조성에 따른 낮은 비저항 값과 순수한 Cu 박막과 비교하여 높은 기계적 특성을 지닌 Cu-TiN 박막을 증착하였다. Cu-TiN composite 박막의 구조 및 조성은 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), EDS (Energy Dispersive Spectrometer), XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy)장비를 사용하여 분석하였으며, 전기전도도는 4-point probe를 사용하여 측정하였고, Knoop hardness 측정방법을 사용하여 박막의 기계적 특성을 측정하였다.
