$Fe_3O_4$(magnetite) having half metallic property attracts great attention material with high curie temperature in spintronics. $Fe_3O_4$ thin films and nanowires were grown onto c-$Al_2O_3$(0001) at various substrate temperatures. $Fe_3O_4$ films deposited from 300 to $600^{\circ}C$ are influenced by thermal stress induced from mismatch of thermal expansion coefficient between $Fe_3O_4$ and $Al_2O_3$ (0001) substrate. The $Fe_3O_4$ nanowires grown at $640^{\circ}C$ showed a diameter of 130 nm and a length of $2-10{\mu}m$. The nanowire arrays fabricated by pulsed laser deposition technique have high coercivity($H_c$) of 608 Oe and Squareness($M_r/M_s$) of 0.68 in perpendicular direction.

ZnO thin films were prepared by pulsed laser deposition on amorphous fused silica substrates at different ambient $O_2$ pressures varying from 0.5 to 500 mTorr, to observe the effect of ambient gas on their crystalline structure, morphology and optical properties. Results of X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and photoluminescence studies showed that crystallinity, surface features and optical properties of the films significantly depended on the oxygen background pressure during growth. A low oxygen pressure (0.5 mTorr) seems to be suitable for the growth of highly c-axis oriented and smoother films possessing a superior luminescent property. The films grown at the higher $O_2$ pressures (50-500 mTorr) were found to have many defects probably due to an excessive incorporation of oxygen into ZnO lattice. We speculate that the film crystallinity could be affected by the kinetics of atomic arrangement during deposition at the higher oxygen pressures.

Surface modification like cone formation on Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) occurs in YBCO target surface irradiated by laser beam. Cone formation results in a reduction of deposition rate, so that it is significant obstacles to an efficient deposition process. With the change of various conditions such as the number of laser shot, target density, direction of incoming laser beam, we have systematically analyzed the modification of target surface. Because cones formed by beam-target interactions grow in direction of incoming laser beam, we have used the method of rotating the target position by 180$^{\circ}$ with the same number and position of laser shot. Experimental results of losing the directionality and changing the shape of cones formed on laser irradiated YBCO target surface is obtained by the SEM image. Also, we have observed that the size of cones formed on target by pulsed laser became larger with increasing the number of laser shots.

ZnO thin films were grown with different plume-substrate angles by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) to control the amount of ablated species arriving on a substrate per laser shot. The angles between plume propagation direction and substrate plane (P-S angle) were 0$^{\circ}$, 45$^{\circ}$ and 90$^{\circ}$. The growth time was changed in order to adjust film thickness. From the XRD pattern exhibiting a dominant (002) and a minor (101) XRD peak of ZnO, all films were found to be well oriented along c-axis. From the AFM image, it was found that the grain size of ZnO thin film was increased, as P-S angle decreased. UV intensity investigated by PL (Photoluminescence) increased as P-S angle decreased.

We have deposited hydrogen-free diamond-like carbon (DLC) films by pulsed laser deposition of graphite. Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) can be utilized to generate films with desired properties quite different from those of the starting material. Since DLC films grown by PLD using turbo pump are perpared without hydrogen, they have a higher density and a higher index of refraction than the hydrogenated DLC films. In this study, effects of the substrate temperature and laser energy density on the properties of DLC films were systematically investigated. The structure and properties of the films have been studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Raman spectroscopy.

The $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$ thin films were fabricated with $Pb(La,Ti)O_3$ buffers in-situ onto $Pt/Ti/SiO_2/Si$ substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique using a Nd:YAG laser with energy density of $2.5J/cm^2$, and deposited for 10 minutes at $550^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature. And then, the films have been annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ in oxygen ambient pressure. The remanent polarization value is increased by using buffer layers but coercive field of films is slightly increased.

In this study, ZnO films have been grown on PES(polyethersu]fone) substrate by PLD(pulsed laser deposition) and characterized as a change of laser density and substrate temperature. Growing conditions were changed with substrate temperatures ranging from 50 to $200^{\circ}C$ and laser densities ranging from $0.2\sim0.4 J/cm^2$. Optical and structural properties were measured by XRD, SEM, AFM, PL measurement.

It is well known that $BaMgAl_{10}O_{17}:Eu^{2+}$ (BAM) and $CaMgSi_2O_6:Eu^{2+}$ (CMS) are a highly efficient blue phosphor. However, these phosphors in the form of thin films have not yet been realized clue to technical difficulties. We prepared thin film type BAM and CMS phosphors on quartz glass substrate using a pulsed laser deposition technique. The luminescent and structural properties of thin film phosphors were monitored as a function of key processing parameters such as oxygen partial pressure inside the deposition chamber, deposition time, laser energy density and the type of post-deposition treatments used. Even though we could not obtain single homogenous phases, thin films with large homogenous areas and a high photoluminescence could be produced by optimizing these processing parameters.

The optimization of the cladding parameters was studied to maximize the deposition efficiency in the laser cladding using a low power pulsed Nd:YAG laser. STS304 stainless steel plate and Co alloy powder were used as a substrate and powder for cladding, respectively. The six cladding parameters were selected through preliminary experiments and their effects on the deposition efficiency were analyzed statistically. Experiments were designed and carried out using the Taguchi experimental method using a L18 orthogonal array. It was found from the results of analysis of variance(ANOVA) that the powder feed position and powder feed angle had the most significant effects on the deposition efficiency, but the powder feed rate and laser focal position had nearly no effects. The deposition efficiency could be maximized at 0mm of the powder feed position and 50o of the powder feed angle in the experimental range. From this experimental analysis, a new laser cladding head with 20o of the powder feed angle was designed and manufactured. With a new laser cladding head, the highest deposition efficiency of 12.2% could be obtained.
