This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of CrN thin-film type pessure sensors, in which the sensing elements were deposited on SUS. 630 diaphragm by DC reactive magnetron sputtering in an argon-nitride atmosphere(Ar-(10%) $N_2$). The optimized condition of CrN thin-film sensing elements was thickness range of 3500$\AA$ and annealing condition($300^{\circ}C$, 3 hr) in Ar-10 %$N_2$ deposition atmosphere. Under optimum conditions, the CrN thin-films for strain gauges is obtained a high resistivity, $\rho$=1147.65 ${\mu}{\Omega}$cm, a low temperature coefficient of resistance, TCR=-186 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and a high temporal stability with a good longitudinal, 11.17. The output sensitivity of fabricated CrN thin-film type pressure sensors is 2.36 mV/V, 4$\sim$20 mA and the maximum non-linearity is 0.4 %FS and hysteresis is less than 0.2 %FS..

This paper presents the characteristics of Ta-N thin-film strain gauges as high-temperature strain gauges, which were deposited on Si substrate by DC reactive magnetron sputtering in an argon-nitrogen atmosphere(Ar-($4{\sim}16%$)$N_2$). These films were annealed for 1 hour in $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr vacuum furnace range $500{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$. The optimized conditions of Ta-N thin-film strain gauges were annealing condition($900^{\circ}C$, 1 hr.) in 8% $N_2$ gas flow ratio deposition atmosphere. Under optimum conditions, the Ta-N thin-films for strain gauges is obtained a high resistivity, ${\rho}$=768.93 ${\mu}{\Omega}cm$, a low temperature coefficient of resistance, TCR = -84 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and a high temporal stability with a good longitudinal gauge factor, GF = 4.12.

PLD 법을 이용하여 PbSe 박막을 p-Si(100) 기판 위에 성장시켰다. 성장온도에 따른 박막의 결정구조를 조사하기 위하여 기판온도를 RT${\sim}400^{\circ}C$로 변화시키면서 박막을 제작하였다. 여러 기판온도에서 제작한 PbSe 박막의 XRD 패턴과 PbSe(200) rocking curve의 반치폭(FWHM)을 분석한 결과, 성장온도 $200^{\circ}C$에서 제작한 박막이 가장 양호한 결정성을 나타냈다. 또한 AFM으로 관찰한 PbSe 박막의 표면형태도 $200^{\circ}C$에서 성장시킨 박막의 표면입자들이 가장 규칙적인 배열을 보였다. Hall 측정결과, PbSe 박막은 n-type 반도체임을 알 수 있었고, 전류-전압 특성 곡선은 전형적인 p-n junction 현상을 나타냈다. 또한 n-type 반도체인 PbSe 박막의 전기전도도는 일반적인 반도체의 값보다 약간 큰 것으로 확인되었다.

GaN is most commonly used to make LED elements. But, due to differences of the thermal expansion coefficient and lattice mismatch with sapphire, dislocations have occurred at about $109{\sim}1010/cm^2$. Generally, a low temperature GaN buffer layer is used between the GaN layer and the sapphire substrate in order to reduce the dislocation density and improve the characteristics of the thin film, and thus to increase the efficiency of the LED. Further, patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) are applied to improve the light extraction efficiency. In this experiment, using an AlN buffer layer on PSS in place of the GaN buffer layer that is used mainly to improve the properties of the GaN film, light extraction efficiency and overall properties of the thin film are improved at the same time. The AlN buffer layer was deposited by using a sputter and the AlN buffer layer thickness was determined to be 25 nm through XRD analysis after growing the GaN film at $1070^{\circ}C$ on the AlN buffer CPSS (C-plane Patterned Sapphire Substrate, AlN buffer 25 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm). The GaN film layer formed by applying a 2 step epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) process, and by changing temperatures ($1020{\sim}1070^{\circ}C$) and pressures (85~300 Torr). To confirm the surface morphology, we used SEM, AFM, and optical microscopy. To analyze the properties (dislocation density and crystallinity) of a thin film, we used HR-XRD and Cathodoluminescence.

We have prepared p-type ZnO:Al films in pure oxygen ambient on n-type Si (100) and homo buffer layers by RF magnetron sputtering system. Hall effect measurement shows that the film annealed at $600^{\circ}C$ possesses p-type conductivity and the film annealed $800^{\circ}C$ does not. PL spectra show different properties of p- and n-type ZnO film. The corresponding peaks of PL spectra of p- and n-type show at about same positions. The intensities of high photon energy of n-type film on buffer shows decreasing tendency.

Fabrication of p-type ZnO has already proven difficult and usually inconsistent despite numerous worldwide efforts. Many research groups studied electrical and optical properties P, Li, As, N single doped ZnO thin film. In P-doped ZnO thin film, the reproducibility of p-type conduction with $P_2O_5$ as a dopant source was shown to be relatively poor. In this study, we made P single doped and Li & P co-doped ZnO target. To investigate electrical and optical properties of P single doped and Li & P co-doped ZnO thin film using $P_2O_5$ and $Li_3PO_4$ dopant source respectively was deposited by PLD. The growth temperature was changed 500, $700^{\circ}C$ and various oxygen partial pressure and post-annealing conditions was changed temperature, different gas ambient($O_2,N_2$). We investigate that how to change electrical and optical properties as function of growth temperature, oxygen partial pressure and post-annealing(RTA).

The thin films of TiN have been used extensively as wear-resistant materials, for instance, such as tools of high-speed cutting, metal mold forming etc. In these days, because the thin films capable of being used more severe conditions are needed, the technologies of arc ion plating are tried to improve its characteristics. The purpose of this study is to investigate the characteristics of thin films of (Ti,Cr)N compared with those of TiN. The method of arc ion plating, which is known as showing good tight-adherence and productivity, was used. After manufacturing thin films of ($Ti_{1-x}Cr_{x}$)N (x=0~1) with change of Cr in (Ti,Cr) target, atomic concentration, structure, size of crystallite, residual stress and surface roughness of thin films on substrate were investigated. As the results, it was confirmed that Cr atomic concentrations of thin films were proportionally changed with Cr atomic concentrations of target, and thin films of ($Ti_{1-x}Cr_{x}$)N (x=0~1) showed NaCl type and CrN existed as solid solution to TiN.

Single phase CuInS$_2$ thin film with the strongest diffraction peak (112) at diffraction angle (2$\theta$) of 27.7$^{\circ}$ and the second strongest diffraction peak (220) at diffraction angle (2$\theta$) of 46.25$^{\circ}$was well made with chalcopyrite structure at substrate temperature of 70$^{\circ}C$. annealing temperature of 250$^{\circ}C$, annealing time of 60 min. The CuInS$_2$ thin film had the greatest grain size of 1.2 Um when the Cu/In composition ratio of 1.03, where the lattice constant of a and c were 5.60${\AA}$ and 11.12${\AA}$, respectively. The Cu/In stoichiometry of the single-phase CuInS$_2$thin films was from 0.84 to 1.3. The film was p-type when tile Cu/In ratio was above 0.99 and was n-type when the Cu/In was below 0.95. The fundamental absorption wavelength, absorption coefficient and optical band gap of p-type CuInS$_2$ thin film with Cu/In=1.3 were 837nm, 3.OH 104 cm-1 and 1.48 eV, respectively. The fundamental absorption wavelength absorption coefficient and optical energy band gap of n-type CuInS$_2$ thin film with Cu/In=0.84 were 821 nm, 6.0${\times}$10$^4$cm$\^$-1/ and 1.51 eV, respectively.

ZnO is a promising material to make high efficient ultraviolet(UV) or blue light emitting diodes(LEDs) because of its large binding energy and energy bandgap. In this study, we prepared ZnO thin films with p-type conductivity on silicon(100) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering in the mixture of $N_2$ and $O_2$. The process was accompanied by low pressure in-situ annealing in $O_2$ at $600^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ respectively. Hall effect in Van der Pauw configuration showed that the N-doped ZnO film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ has p-type conductivity. Photoluminescence(PL) spectrum of the film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ showed UV emission related to exciton and bound to donor-acceptor pair(DAP) as well as visible emission related to many intrinsic defects.

High-quality Al-N doped p-type ZnO thin films were deposited on Si and buffer layer/Si by DC magnetron sputtering in a mixture of $N_2$ and $O_2$ gas. The target was ceramic ZnO mixed with $Al_2O_3$ (2 wt%). The p-type ZnO thin films showed a carrier concentration in the range of $1.5{\times}10^{15}{\sim}2.93{\times}10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$, resistivity in the range of 131.2${\sim}$2.864 ${\Omega}cm$, mobility in the range of 3.99${\sim}$31.6 $cm^2V^{-1}s^{-l}$, respectively. It was easier to dope p-type ZnO films on Si substrates than on buffer layer/Si. The film grown on Si showed the highest quality of photoluminescence (PL) characteristics. The Al donor energy level depth $(E_d)$ of Al-N codoped ZnO films was reduced to about 50 meV, and the N acceptor energy level depth $(E_a)$ was reduced to 63 meV.
