The influences of substrate temperature were studied when fabricating KLN thin film on amorphous substrate using an rf-magnetron sputtering method. Investigating the vaporization temperature of the each element, the excess ratio of target and the optimum deposition conditions were effectively selected when thin filmizing a material which have elements with large difference fo vaporization temperature. In order to compensate K and Li which have lower vaporization temperatures than Nb, KLN target of composition excess with K of 60% and Li of 30% was used. KLN thin film fabricated on Corning 1737 glass substrate had single KLN phase above 58$0^{\circ}C$ of substrate temperature and crystallized to c-axis direction. The optimum conditions were rf power of 100W, process pressure of 150mTorr, and substrate temperature of $600^{\circ}C$.

Tin-doped indium thin film is outstanding material among transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) materials. ITO thin films show a low electrical resistance(<$10^{-4}\;[{\Omega}{\cdot}m]$) and high transmittance(>80%) in the visible range. ITO thin films usually have been deposited on the glass substrate. In order to apply flexible display, the substrate should have the ability to bend and be deposited without substrate heat. Also properties of ITO thin film depend on what kind of substrate. In this study, we prepared ITO thin film on the polycarbonate (PC) substrate by using Facing Target Sputtering (FTS) system. Before deposition of ITO thin film, PC substrate took plasma surface treatment. The electrical and surface properties of as-deposited thin films were investigated by Hall Effect measurement, UV/VIS spectrometer and the surface property of substrate is investigated by Contact angle measurement.

The main purpose of this study is enhancing the filtering efficiency, performance and durability of filter by growing SiC whiskers on cordierite honeycomb substrate. The experiment was performed by Chemical Vapor Infiltration (CVI) in order to control pore morphology of substrate. Increasing the mechanical strength of porous substrate is one of important issues. The formation of "networking structure" in the pore of porous substrate increased mechanical strength. The high pressure gas injection to the specimen showed that a little of whiskers were separated from substrate but additional film coating enhanced the stability of whisker at high pressure gas injection. Particle trap test was performed. More nano-particle was trapped by whisker growth at the pore of substrate. Therefore it is expected that the porous cordierite which deposited the SiC whisker will be the promising material for the application as filter trapping the nano-particles.

Sapphire is a substrate material that is widely used in optical and electronic devices. However, the processing of sapphire into a substrate takes a long time owing to its high hardness and chemical inertness. In order to process the sapphire ingot into a substrate, ingot growth, multiwire sawing, lapping, and polishing are required. The lap grinding process using pellets is known as one of the ways to improve the efficiency of sapphire substrate processing. The lap grinding process ensures high processing efficiency while utilizing two-body abrasion, unlike the lapping process which utilizes three-body abrasion by particles. However, the lap grinding process has a high material removal rate (MRR), while its weakness is in obtaining the required surface roughness for the final polishing process. In this study, we examine the effects of free abrasives in lap grinding on the material removal characteristics of sapphire substrate. Before conducting the lap grinding experiments, it was confirmed that the addition of free abrasives changed the friction force through the pin-on-disk wear test. The MRR and roughness reduction rate are experimentally studied to verify the effects of free abrasive concentration on deionized water. The addition of free abrasives (colloidal silica) in the lap grinding process can improve surface roughness by three-body abrasion along with two-body abrasion by diamond grits.

The AZO thin film was prepared on flexible substrate by Facing Targets Sputtering method. The substrate used the Polycarbonate(PC), thickness 200$\mu$m. In particular, the AZO thin film was prepared at room temperature because the substrate is weak in heat. The structural, electrical, optical properties of the AZO thin film were investigated and the surface was observed by microscope.

The knowledge of substrate material properties is important in antenna design. We present a technique to accurately characterize the dielectric constant and loss tangent of an antenna substrate based on the measurements of antenna's reflection coefficient and bandwidth. In this technique, an error function is formulated by combinations of the reflection coefficient and bandwidth of measured and simulated data, and then an optimization technique is used to efficiently search for the substrate properties that minimize the error function. The results show that the method is effective in retrieving the dielectric constant and loss tangent of the antenna substrate without the need of additional test fixtures as in conventional substrate characterization methods.

For the fabrication of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ thick film using diffusion process between $Y_3$BaCuO$_{5}$ and BaO+CuO, each material was selected as substrate and doping material. In this paper, we investigated the characteristic of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{x}$ thick film due to both addition of CeO$_2$into substrate and initial particle size of doping material. Through X-ray diffraction patterns and SEM photographs, the variation of composition and thickness of the formed phase was observed. It was from the experiment obtained that the addition of CeO$_2$into $Y_2$BaCuO$_{5}$ substrate and the initial particle size of doping material play important part in promoting the reaction between substrate and doping material.aterial.

The influence of substrate materials on the degree of basal porosity during spray casting process has been investigated. Different conditions of droplet spreading on the substrate were induced by varying the substrate material. Flat sections of cast iron and aluminum have been spray deposited via spray casting process onto an aluminum substrate, a low carbon steel substrate, and an alumina based refractory substrate. Results for cast iron and aluminum sprayed onto the aluminum substrate showed significant improvements in the surface condition and degree of basal porosity with evidence of substrate deformation that round pits ranging from $5{\mu}m$ to $20{\mu}m$ in diameter are distributed on the surface of aluminum substrate. The lowest level of porosity was developed in alumina based refractory material. Several mechanisms for porosity formation were discussed with droplet impact pressure and droplet spreading. Adopting a spray cutting mechanism for removing the periphery of spray cone, porosity level was remarkably decreased.

In photovoltaic power generation where minority carrier generation via light absorption is competing against minority carrier recombination, the substrate thickness and material quality are interdependent, and appropriate combination of the two variables is important in obtaining the maximum output power generation. Medici, a two-dimensional semiconductor device simulation tool, is used to investigate the interdependency in relation to the maximum power output in front-lit Si solar cells. Qualitatively, the results indicate that a high quality substrate must be thick and that a low quality substrate must be thin in order to achieve the maximum power generation in the respective materials. The dividing point is $70{\mu}m/5{\times}10^{-6}sec$. That is, for materials with a minority carrier recombination lifetime longer than $5{\times}10^{-6}sec$, the substrate must be thicker than $70{\mu}m$, while for materials with a lifetime shorter than $5{\times}10^{-6}sec$, the substrate must be thinner than $70{\mu}m$. In substrate fabrication, the thinner the wafer, the lower the cost of material, but the higher the cost of wafer fabrication. Thus, the optimum thickness/lifetime combinations are defined in this study along with the substrate cost considerations as part of the factors to be considered in material selection.
