This study uses ZnO thin film as a piezoelectric material and Pt as bottom electrode for FBAR (film bulk acoustic resonator) device. ZnO thin film and Pt were deposited by RF-magnetron sputtering method. ZnO thin film and Pt were oriented to c-axis. Top electrode Al was deposited by thermal evaporation. The membrane was formed of bulk micromachining. The FBAR was evaluated by XRD, SEM and electrical characterization. The resonant frequency was measured by HP 8753C Network Analyzer. A fabricated FBAR device exhibited a resonant frequency of 700 MHz ~ 1.5 GHz. When bottom electrode and top electrode thickness were fixed, the resonant frequency was increased as decreasing ZnO thin film thickness.

Al-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) films for transparent electrodes in thin film solar cells were deposited on glass substrates at a low temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering. The transmittance of the ZnO:Al films in the visible range was 87%. The lowest resistivity of the ZnO:Al films was about $5.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}$ cm at the Al content of 2.5 wt%. After deposition, the surface of ZnO:Al films were etched in dilute HCl (0.5%) for the investigation of the change in the electrical properties and the surface morphology due to etching.

We investigated the properties of vanadium oxide (VOx) buffer layers deposited by a dual RF magnetron sputtering method under various target powers for inverted organic solar cells (IOSCs). Sputter fabricatged VOx thin films exhibited higher crystallinity with the increase of target power, resulting in a uniform and large grain size. The electrical properties of VOx films are improved with the increase of target power because of the increase of V content. In the results, the performance of IOSCs critically depended on the target power during the film growth because the crystalllinity of the VOx film affects the carrier mobility of the VOx film.

In this work, we have fabricated thin film resistors using the DC/RF magnetron sputter of 51wt%Ni-41wt%Cr-8wt%Si alloy target and studied the effect of the process parameters on the electrical properties. In fabrication process, sputtering power, substrate temperature and annealing temperature have been varied as controllable parameters. TCR decreases with increasing the substrate temperature, but TCR increases over 300 [$^{\circ}C$]. The films are annealed to 400 [$^{\circ}C$] in air atmosphere, TCR increases with increasing the annealing temperature. The resistivity was 172 [${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$] and 209 [${\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$] for the RF and DC as a sputtering power sources, respectively. Also, TCR was -52 [$ppm/^{\circ}C$] and -25 [$ppm/^{\circ}C$]. As a results of them, it is suggested that the sheet resistance and TCR of thin films can be controlled by variation of sputter process parameter and annealing of thin film.

태양전지, 터치센서와 같이 투명한 전극(TCO: Transparent conducting oxide)이 필요로 하는 곳에는 금속 산화물 형태의 ITO, ZnO, FTO와 같은 투명 전극이 사용된다. 그중에서 FTO는 저렴한 가격과 높은 투과율, 낮은 저항으로 주목을 받고 있다. 뿐만아니라 FTO 박막은 다른 산화물 전도체에 비해 구부림에 강한 저항성을 보여 주고 있다. FTO 박막의 캐리어 전하 생성 원리는 F 원자가 O 원자의 자리를 치환하게 되면서 잉여 전자의 발생으로 전기가 흐를 수 있다. 아직까지는 화학적 조성비에 유리한 CVD를 이용한 증착 방법이 많이 사용되고 있다. 스퍼터 장비 역시 공정 가스에 따라 화학적 조성비 변화가 가능하고 CVD와 비교하여 공정이 간단하며 연속 공정이 쉽고 대면적 적용이 가능하다. 본 실험은 본사에서 R&D용으로 제작한 Daon-1000 S 장비를 사용하였으며 DaON-1000 S는 3개의 2" sputter gun이 장착 되어 있어 co-sputtering이 가능한 장비이다.

Zinc Oxide(ZnO) thin films on Si (100) substrate were deposited by RF magnetron sputter with changing sputtering conditions such as argon/oxygen gas ratios, RF power, and substrate temperature, chamber pressure and target-substrate distance. To analyze a crystallographic properties of the films, ${\Theta}/2{\Theta}$ mode X-ray diffraction, SEM analyses. C-axis preferred orientation highly depended on RF power.

Au-Sn solder alloy were deposited in multilayer and co-sputtered film by rf-magnetron sputter and the composition control and analysis were studied. For the alloy deposition condition, each components of Au or Sn were deposited separately. On the basis of pure Sn and Au deposition, the deposition condition for Au-Sn solder alloy were set up. As variables, the substrate temperature, the rf-power, and the thickness ratio were used for the optimum composition. For multilayer solder alloy, the roughness and the composition of solder alloy were controlled more accurately at the higher substrate temperature. In contrast, for co-sputtered solder, the substrate temperature influenced little to the composition, but the composition could be controlled easily by rf-power. In addition, the co-sputtered solder film mostly consisted of intermetallic compound, which formed during deposition. The compound were confirmed by XRD. Without flux during bonding of solder alloy film on leadframe, the adhesion strength were measured. The maximum shear stress was $330(N/mm^2)$ for multilayer solder with Au 10wt% and $460(N/mm^2)$ for co-sputtered solder with Au 5wt%.

The $Tio_2$ films were prepared on glass, silicon and quartz substrate at different temperature by radio frequency reactive magnetron sputtering under different flow ratios of Ar and O2 gases. The films were characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), atomic force microscope (AFM) and UV-VIS spectrophotometer. Only the anatase phase was observed in films and their diffaction peaks increased with temprature of substrate. The size of crystallites decreased with higher concentration of oxygen. Refractive index and optical absorption of thin films decreased with higher concentration of oxygen. The thin films which have good transmittance spectra and smooth surface, deposited in the sputtering ambient with 10 % of $O_2$ at the temperature from $400{\circ}C$ to $300{\circ}C$.

We synthesized molybdenum thin films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering and physicochemical analysis was performed. The physical and chemical properties of these films were examined with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The obtained film at the oxygen ratio of 0% showed crystallinity of cubic Mo(110) phase. After the oxygen ratio increased more than 5% in the sputter gas, the molybdenum films were formed as an amorphous phase. The thickness of the Mo thin film was drastically decreased from 1000 nm to ca 70 nm after introduction of oxygen in the sputter gas confirmed by spectroscopic ellipsometer (SE) and scanning electron spectroscopy (SEM). The calculated band gap of the film deduced from SE data increased from 3.17 to 3.63 eV by addition of oxygen in the sputter gas. The roughness of the Mo film was examined with atomic force microscopy (AFM) and it was dramatically decreased by introducing of oxygen during sputtering. XPS results revealed that the ratio of metallic Mo species in the film decreased by the contents of Mo(VI) species increased at the ratio of oxygen increased in the sputter gas and fully oxidized at low content of oxygen in the sputter gas.
