차세대 반도체의 초미세 Cu 배선 확산방지층 적용을 위해 원자층증착법(atomic layer deposition, ALD) 공정을 이용하여 증착한 RuAlO 확산방지층과 Cu 박막 계면의 계면접착에너지를 정량적으로 측정하였고, 환경 신뢰성 평가를 수행하였다. 접합 직후 4점굽힘시험으로 평가된 계면접착에너지는 약 $7.60J/m^2$으로 측정되었다. $85^{\circ}C$/85% 상대습도의 고온고습조건에서 500시간이 지난 후 측정된 계면접착에너지는 $5.65J/m^2$로 감소하였으나, $200^{\circ}C$에서 500시간 동안 후속 열처리한 후에는 $24.05J/m^2$으로 계면접착에너지가 크게 증가한 것으로 평가되었다. 4점굽힘시험 후 박리된 계면은 접합 직후와 고온고습조건의 시편의 경우 RuAlO/$SiO_2$ 계면이었고, 500시간 후속 열처리 조건에서는 Cu/RuAlO 계면인 것으로 확인되었다. X-선 광전자 분광법 분석 결과, 고온고습조건에서는 흡습으로 인하여 강한 Al-O-Si 계면 결합이 부분적으로 분리되어 계면접착에너지가 약간 낮아진 반면, 적절한 후속 열처리 조건에서는 효과적인 산소의 계면 유입으로 인하여 강한 Al-O-Si 결합이 크게 증가하여 계면접착에너지도 크게 증가한 것으로 판단된다. 따라서, ALD Ru 확산방지층에 비해 ALD RuAlO 확산방지층은 동시에 Cu 씨앗층 역할을 하면서도 전기적 및 기계적 신뢰성이 우수할 것으로 판단된다.

본 연구에서는 sapphire 기판위에 P (phosphorus) 도핑된 ZnO 박막을 제작한 후, 산소 분위기에서 후열 처리 온도가 박막의 전기적 및 광학적 특성에 미치는 영향에 대해서 조사하였다. XRD 측정 결과, 후열 처리 온도에 무관하게 모든 박막이 c축 배향성을 나타내었다. Hall 측정 결과, $850^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리한 박막에서만 p형 전도 특성이 관찰되었다. 이때의 홀 캐리어 농도와 홀 이동도는 각각 $1.18{\times}1016cm^{-3}$과 $0.96cm^2/Vs$의 값을 나타내었다. 저온 PL 측정 결과, $850^{\circ}C$에서 후열 처리한 박막의 경우 p형 특성을 나타내는 상당량의 억셉터가 관련된 A0X (3.351eV), FA(3.283eV) 및 DAP (3.201eV) 피크가 관찰되었다. 향후 P 도핑된 ZnO 박막의 공정 조건과 후열 처리 조건을 최적화시킨다면, 차세대 광소자에 응용될 수 있는 매우 유망한 재료로 주목받을 것으로 기대된다.

인쇄전자소자 금속 배선의 고온 신뢰성 평가를 위해 스크린 프린팅 기법으로 도포된 Ag 박막과 폴리이미드 기판 사이의 계면접착력을 $200^{\circ}C$ 후속 열처리 시간에 따라 $180^{\circ}$ 필 테스트를 통해 평가하였고, 박리 계면 미세구조를 분석하였다. 후속 열처리 전 필 강도는 약 16.7 gf/mm 이었고, 열처리 24 시간 후 필 강도는 29.4 gf/mm까지 증가하였는데, 이는 초기 열처리에 의해 접합계면에서 Ag-O-C 화학 결합의 증가와 바인더의 organic bridges 효과가 주 원인인 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 열처리 시간이 48, 100, 250, 500 시간으로 더욱 증가함에 따라 필 강도는 각각 22.3, 3.6, 0.6, 0.1 gf/mm으로 급격히 감소하는 거동을 보였다. 이는 $200^{\circ}C$의 고온에서 장시간 노출되었을 때 Cu/Ag 계면 산화막 형성이 주 원인인 것으로 판단된다.

Ga doped ZnO (GZO) thin films were deposited with RF magnetron sputtering on glass substrate and then the effect of post deposition annealing at nitrogen atmosphere on the structural, optical and electrical properties of the films was investigated. The post deposition annealing process was conducted for 30 minutes at different temperature of 150, 300 and $450^{\circ}C$, respectively. As increase annealing temperature, GZO films show the increment of the prefer orientation of ZnO (002) diffraction peak in the XRD pattern and the optical transmittance in a visible wave region was also increased, while the electrical sheet resistance was decreased. The figure of merit obtained in this study means that GZO films which vacuum annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ have the highest optoelectrical performance in this study.

Effects of growth variables and post-growth annealing on the optical, structural and electrical properties of magnetron-sputtered Ga_0.04Mg_0.10Zn_0.86O films are characterized in detail. It is observed that films grown from pure oxygen plasma showed high resistivity, ~10² Ω·cm, whereas films grown in Ar plasma showed much lower resistivity, 2.0 × 10^-2 ~ 1.0 × 10^-1 Ω·cm. Post-growth annealing significantly improved the electrical resistivity, to 4.3 ~ 9.0 × 10^-3 Ω·cm for the vacuum annealed samples and to 1.3 ~ 3.0 × 10^-3 Ω·cm for the films annealed in Zn vapor. It is proposed that these phenomena may be attributed to the improved crystalline quality and to changes in the defect chemistry. It is suggested that growth within oxygen environments leads to suppression of oxygen vacancy (Vo) donors and formation of Zn vacancy (V_Zn) acceptors, resulting in highly resistive films. After annealing treatment, the activation of Ga donors is enhanced, Vo donors are annihilated, and crystalline quality is improved, increasing the electron mobility and the concentration. After annealing in Zn vapor, Zn interstitial donors are introduced, further increasing the electron concentration.

We analyzed the influence of post-annealing on Ga₂O₃/n-type 4H-SiC heterojunction diode. Gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) thin films were deposited by radio frequency (RF) sputtering. Post-deposition annealing at 950℃ in an Oxygen atmosphere was performed. The material properties of Ga₂O₃ and the electrical properties of the diodes were investigated. Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-Ray Diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) images show a significant increase in the roughness and crystallinity of the O₂-annealed films. After Oxygen annealing X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) shows that the atomic ratio of oxygen increases which is related to a decrease in oxygen vacancy within the Ga₂O₃ film. The O₂-annealed diodes exhibited higher on-current and lower leakage current. Moreover, the ideality factor, barrier height, and thermal activation energy were derived from the current-voltage curve by increasing the temperature from 298 - 434K.

We observed strain evolution of P3HT crystals in P3HT:PCBM films and the effect of Al electrode on the evolution during real time annealing process. Based on simple assumptions, both relaxed lattice parameters and thermal expansion coefficient could be quantitatively determined. P3HT:PCBM films displayed tensile strain in as-prepared samples regardless of the presence of an Al layer. In the absence of Al layer, P3HT crystals showed only strain relaxation at an annealing temperature of $180^{\circ}C$. Meanwhile In the presence of an Al layer, the strain was relaxed and changed to compressive strain at around 120C annealing temperature, which indicated a tightening of the thiophene ring packing. These behaviors support the improved performance of devices fabricated by post annealing process.

The spin-casted PLZT(9/65/35) thin films through polymeric sol-gel process were prepared on Pt substrate. The crack-free, uniform and dense films were obtained by post-annealing at the temperature between 35$0^{\circ}C$ and $700^{\circ}C$. The composite structure mixed together with large grains called "rosette" and surrounding small grains were observed on the films annealed over $600^{\circ}C$. Pyrochlore phase was completely changed to perovskite phase above $600^{\circ}C$ with the increase of annealing temperature. Dielectric constant (k) was larger with the increase of film thickness and annealing temperature. from the measurements of dielectric constant as a function of measuring temperature, it was also observed that Curie temperature was shifted to higher temperature with the increase of film thickness and annealing temperature. The pyroelectric coefficient(P) of 10 times coated film annealed at $700^{\circ}C$ was 65 $\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.K.$.K.

The magnetoresistance (MR) properties of antiferromagnetic (AFM) IrMn based giant magnetoresistance-spin valve (GMR-SV) was investigated in view point of the artificial rotation effect of ferromagnetic (FM) layer in the plane induced by an applied field during the post annealing temperature. The MR curves measured with an azimuthal angle region of ${\phi}=0^{\circ}-360^{\circ}$ are depended on the annealing temperature and the magnetization easy axis of two free NiFe layers and two pinned NiFe layers in dual-type GMR-SV film. Especially, the annealing temperature and sample rotation angle(${\theta}$ ) maintained to the magnetic sensitivity (MS) of 1.4 %/Oe with an isotropic region angle of $110^{\circ}$ are $100^{\circ}C$ and $90^{\circ}$, respectively.

The paper presents some methods to improve characteristics of film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices. The FBAR devices were fabricated on Bragg reflectors. Thermal treatments were done by sintering and/or annealing processes. The measurement showed a considerable improvement of return loss (S$_{11}$) and quality factor (Q$_{s/p}$). These thermal techniques seem very promising for enhancing FBAR resonance performance.
