Effects of ion implantation and deposition on the tribological properties of DLC film as a function of implanted energies and process times were investigated. TiC ions were implanted and deposited on the Si-wafer substrates followed by DLC coating using ion beam deposition method. In order to study tribological properties such as friction coefficient and behavior of DLC film on the modified surface as a function of implanted energies and process times, we used a ball-on-disc type apparatus in the atmospheric environment. From results of wear test, as the implanted energy was increased, the friction coefficient was more stable below 0.1.

The material properties and the TFT characteristics fabricated on SiOS12T substrate by LPCVD using SiHS14T gas were investigated. The deposition rate showed Arrhenius behavior with an activation energy of 31Kcal/mol. And the transition temperature form amorphous to crystalline deposition was observed at 570$^{\circ}C$-580$^{\circ}C$. The strong(220) texture was observed as the deposition temperature increases. XRD analysis showed that the film texture of the as-deposited polycrystalline silicon does not change after annealing at 850$^{\circ}C$. The fabricated TFT's based on the as-deposited amorphous film showed superior electrical characteristics to those of the as-deposited polycrystalline films. It is considered that the different electrical characteristics result from the difference of flat band voltage(VS1FBT) due to the interface trap density between the gate oxide and the active channel.

Semiconductor industry requires the development of new technology such as 300 mm technology, suitable for manufacturing the next generation dervices. A promising process for realizing 300 mm technology can be achieved by using enlarged microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition (MWCVD) technology. In this work, we used radial line slot antenna for enlarging microwave plasma area, and carried ut the deposition of polysilicon films using enlarged MWCVD for the first time in Korea. The results was as follows. Deposited polysilicon films showed various degrees of crystallinity as well as epitaxy to silicon substrates even at low temperature of $300^{\circ}C$. Deposition rates also controled crystallization behavior and slo deposition rates showed very high crystallinity. It could be said that enlarged MWCVD system and technology was worth to get attraction as one os future technologies for 1 G DRAM era.

SiC thin films were deposited by chemical vapor deposition method using tetramethylsilane (TMS) and hexamethyldisilane (HMDS). The chamber pressure during the deposition was kept at about 1 torr. Precursor was transported to the reaction chamber by $H_2$gas and SiC deposition was carried out at the reaction temperature of $1200^{\circ}C$. Si-wafer masked with tantalum and MgO single crystal covered with platinum and molybdenum were used as substrates. The selectivity of SiC deposition was observed by comparing the microstructure between metal (Ta, Pt, and Mo) surfaces and substrate surfaces (Si and MgO). The deposited films were identified as the $\beta-SiC$ phase by X-ray diffraction pattern. Also, the deposition -behavior of SiC on each surface was investigated by the scanning electron microscope analysis.

The effects of deposition variables on SnO2 CVD were investigated for SnCl4＋O2 reaction at 300∼700$^{\circ}C$, Psncl4=1${\times}$10-5∼1${\times}$10-3 atm, and Po2=5${\times}$10-4∼1 atm. A thermodynamic equilibrium study on Sn-Cl-O system has been performed with the computer calculation. The calculation indicates that major species participating the reaction in SnCl4 and not intermediate species, SnCl2. Good uniformity of the film thickness was obtained at the flow rate of 11cm/sec, which resulted from the stable gas flow in our cold wall reactor. The experimental results showed that apparent activation energy of the deposition was about 13.5Kcal/mole below the temperature of 500$^{\circ}C$ and the deposition mechanism was controlled by surface reation. The behavior of deposition rate on the reactant partial pressures could be explained with the Langmuri-Hinshelwood mechanism. X-ray study demonstrated that SnO2 film deposited at temperatures above 400$^{\circ}C$ were polycrystalline with tetragonal rutile structure and grew with (211) and (301) preferred orientations.

Ferroelectric $Bi_{3.25}Nd_{0.75}Ti_{3}O_{12}(BNdT)$ thin films were proposed for capacitor of FeRAM. The BNdT thin films were grown on Pt/Ti $SiO_2/P-Si(100)$ substrates by the RF magnetron sputtering deposition. The dielectric properties of the BNdT were investigated by varying deposition temperatures. Increasing deposition temperature, the (117) peak was increased. An increase of columnar and recrystalline structure of BNdT films with increasing deposition temperature was observed by the Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy(FE-SEM). The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the BNdT thin films with deposition temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ were 319 and 0.05, respectively.

A significant progress has been made in the characterization of zinc oxide (ZnO) semiconductor as a new semiconductor layer instead of amorphous Si semiconductor used in thin film transistor due to its high electron mobility at low deposition temperature which is quite suitable for flexible display and OLED devices. The wet pattering of ZnO is another important issue with regard to mass production of ZnO thin film transistor device. However, the wet behavior of ZnO thin film in aqueous wet etching solutions conventionally used un TFT industry has not been reported yet, in this work, wet corrosion behavior of RF magnetron sputtered ZnO thin film in various wet solutions such as phosphoric and nitric acid solutions was studied using by electrochemical analysis. The effects of deposition parameters such as RF power and oxygen partial pressure on corrosion rate are also examined.

The 0.65Pb($Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.35PbTiO_3$ (PMN-PT) thin films with $La_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}CoO_{3-\delta}$ (LSCO) bottom electrodes were grown on $CeO_2$/YSZ/Si(001), Pt/$TiO_2$/Si and $SrTiO_3$ (STO) substrates using conventional pulsed laser deposition (PLD) at a substrate temperature of $550^{\circ}C$. Since generally the crystallographic orientation of the bottom electrode induces the orientation of the films deposited on it, it allows us to observe the influence of the PMN-PT film orientation on the electrical properties. Phi scan done on PMN-PT/LSCO thin films shows epitaxial behavior of the films grown on sto substrates and $CeO_2$/YSZ buffered Si(001) substrates, and (110) texture on Pt/$TiO_2$/Si substrates. Polarization-electricfield (P-E) measurement shows good hysteresis behavior of PMN-PT films with remnant polarization of 18.2, 8.8, and $4.4{\mu}C/cm^2$ on $CeO_2$/YSZ/Si, Pt/TiO2/Si and STO substrates respectively.

The effect of surrounding air velocity on the soot deposition process from a diffusion flame to a solid wall was investigated in a microgravity environment to attain in-situ observations of the process. An ethylene($C_2H_4$) diffusion flame was formed around a cylindrical rod burner in surrounding air velocity of $v_{air}$=2.5, 5, and 10 cm/s with oxygen concentration of 35 % and wall temperature of 300 K. Laser extinction was adopted to determine the soot volume fraction distribution between the flame and burner wall. The experimental results show that the soot particle distribution region moves closer to the surface of the wall with increasing surrounding air velocity. A numerical simulation was also performed to understand the motion of soot particles in the flame and the characteristics of the soot deposition to the wall. The results successfully predicted the differences in the motion of soot particles by different surrounding air velocity near the burner surface and are in good agreement with observed soot behavior in microgravity. A comparison of the calculations and experimental results led to the conclusion that a consideration of the thermophoretic effect is essential to understand the soot deposition on walls.

Interactions of Cu films with Si substrates separated by thin layers of molybdenum and molybdenum nitride were investigated in the viewpoint of diffusion barrier to copper. the diffusion barrier behavior of the layers was studied as functions of deposition and annealing conditions by cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy and Nomarski microscopy. the layers deposited at $N_2$ gas ratios of 0.4 and 0.5 exhibited good diffusion barrier behaviors up to $700^{\circ}C$, mainly due to the phase transformation of molybdenum to $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N phase. The increase in the N gas ratio in deposition elevates the lower limit of barrier failure temperature. Futhermore, amorphous molybdenum nitride films deposited at 20$0^{\circ}C$ and 30$0^{\circ}C$ did not fail, while the crystalline $\gamma$-Mo$_2$N films deposited at 40$0^{\circ}C$ and 50$0^{\circ}C$ showed signs of interlayer interactions between Cu and Si after annealing at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. Therefore, the amorphous nature of the molybdenum nitride layer enhanced its ability to reduce Cu diffusion and its stability as a diffusion barrier at elevated temperatures.
