We prepared the Al doped ZnO (AZO) thin film on polyethersulfon (PES) without any substrate heating by Facing Targets Sputtering (FTS) system. FTS system has two different facing targets. One is ZnO doped the content of Al 2 wt% and the other is Zn in order to decrease resistivity. The electrical, structural and optical properties of AZO thin films were investigated. To evaluate the as-deposited thin film properties, we employed four-point probe (CMT-R100nw, Changmin), Surface profiler (Alpha-step, Tencor), UV/VIS spectrometer (HP), X-ray diffractometer (XRD, Rigaku) and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM, Hitachi S-4700). As a result, We obtained that AZO thin film deposited on PES substrate at a DC Power of 150 W, working pressure of 1 mTorr and $O_2$ gas flow ratio of 0.2 exhibited the resistivity of $4.2{\times}10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}cm]$ and the optical transmittance of about 85 % in the visible range.

Thin nickel oxide films formed on uncooled and cooled $SiO_2/Si$ substrates using a radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputter powered by 200 W in a mixed atmosphere of argon and oxygen. Grazing-incidence X-ray diffraction and field emission scanning electron microscopy are used for the structural analysis of nickel oxide films. The electrical conductivity required for better bolometric performance is estimated by means of a four-point probe system. Columnar and (200) preferred orientations are discovered in both films regardless of substrate cooling. Electric resistivity, however, is greatly influenced by the substrate cooling. Oxygen partial pressure increase during the nickel oxide deposition leads to a rapid decrease in resistivity, and the resistivity is higher in the cooled nickel oxide samples. Even when small microstructure variations are applied, lower resistivity in favor of low noise performance is acquired in the uncooled samples.

We prepared the Al doped ZnO coating Ag multilayer thin films on glass without substrate heating using FTS system. The structure of multilayer thin films has Al doped ZnO/Ag/Al doped ZnO(AZO/Ag/AZO). The thickness of top and bottom AZO thin films were fixed to 50 nm, respectively and controlled the thickness of Ag thin films with deposition time. As-doped multilayer thin films were prepared at 1mTorr and input power (DC) of 100W at room temperature. To investigate the film properties, we employed four-point probe, UVNIS spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Hall Effect measurement system and Atomic Force Microscope (AFM).

The superconducting thin films of $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ were deposited on (100) sapphire substrates at low temperature by rf magnetron sputtering and annealed at $895^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec. using rapid-thermal-annealing(RTA) technique. The films were characterized by SEM, four-point probe resistivity measurement, XRD, and AES. The RTA processed HTS films had a preferential structure with c-axis normal to the substrate surface.

We prepared Zinc Oxide thin films introducing Ag layer on glass substrates at room temperature by using facing targets sputtering (FTS) method. In order to obtain good electrical properties, Ag layer was introduced. Ag with various thickness of thin films were used as intermediate layers. The electrical, optical and crystallographic properties of thin films were investigated by Four-Point probe, UV/VIS spectrometer and XRD. From the results, we could confirm that the thickness of Ag layer changes the electrical and optical performances of the multilayers.

In this study, AZO(ZnO:Al) thin film were prepared by FTS(Facing Target Sputtering) system. The electrical, optical and crystallographic properties of AZO thin film with $O_2$ gas flow ratio have been investigated. The thickness, transmittance, crystal structure and resistivity of AZO thin film were measured by a-step, UV-VIS spectrometer, XRD and four-point probe, respectively. As a result AZO thin film deposited with the transmittance over 80% and the resistivity about $10^{-1}\Omega-cm$.

Deposition characteristics of Cu thin films using Ar carrier gas and $H_2$ processing gas at various working pressures and substrate temperatures were investigated. Also, effects of $H_2$ pretreatment using plasma at $200^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature and 0.6 Torr of chamber pressure were stdied. Cu thin films were deposited on TiN/Si substrate at working pressure of 0.5~1.5 Torr, substrate temperatures of 140~$240^{\circ}C$ with (hface)Cu(tmvs). Substrates were pretreated by $H_2$ plasma, and Cu films deposited in situ using twofold shower head. The purity, electrical resistivity, thickness, surface morphology, optical properties of the deposited Cu films were measured b the AES, four point probe, stylus profiler, SEM,. and the uv-visible spectrophotometer. This study suggests that $H_2$ plasma is an effective method for enhancing deposition rate and for producing high quality copper thin films.

본 연구에서는 Al-doped ZnO (AZO) 박막을 linear facing target sputter (LFTS) 시스템을 이용하여 성막 하였고 박막의 특성을 분석하였다. LFTS 시스템은 마주보는 두 AZO 타겟 사이에 고밀도의 플라즈마를 구속시켜 플라즈마 데미지 없이 산화물 박막을 성막 시킬 수 있는 장치이다. LFTS로 성막된 AZO 박막의 인가된 DC 파워에 따른 전기적 특성을 분석하기 위해 four-point probe와 Hall measurement 장비를 이용하여 분석을 진행 하였으며, 광학적 특성 분석을 위해 UV/Vis spectrometer 장비를 이용하여 분석하였다. AZO 박막의 구조적, 표면적 특성을 분석하기 위해 X-ray diffraction(XRD) 및 scanning electron microscope(SEM)을 사용하여 상온에서 성막된 AZO 박막의 특성을 관찰 하였다. 또한 AZO 박막의 PET 기판과의 접합성 및 구부림 시의 안정성을 평가하기 위해 bending test를 진행 하였다. 최적화된 AZO 박막으로부터 기판에 성막 중 열처리공정이나 후 열처리 공정의 진행 없이 35 ohm/square의 낮은 면저항과 약 80 % 이상의 투과율을 얻을 수 있었다. LFTS 시스템을 이용하여 낮은 공정온도에서 AZO 박막을 성막 하였음에도 불구하고 낮은 저항과 높은 투과도 특성을 나타내고 있어 기존의 투명 박막을 대체 할 수 있는 가능성을 제시하였다
