The as-grown $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ superconducting thin films on MgO(100) substrate have been prepared by a reactive coevaporation method. The superconducting transition temperature, surface morphology and crystalline quality were examined as a function of the substrate temperature ranging from $450^{\circ}C$ to $590^{\circ}C$. From the reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) analysis, it was found the film consisted of almost amorphous phase with a halo pattern deposited at the substrate temperature of $450^{\circ}C$. The film deposited at the substrate temperature of $510^{\circ}C$ consisted of polycrystalline phase, showing a broad ring pattern. On the other hand, for the film deposited at $590^{\circ}C$, RHEED showed spotty pattern indicating that this film consisted of single crystal phase. It has rough film surface due to the surface outgrowth. The surface outgrowth increased as the substrate temperature increased from $510^{\circ}C$ to $590^{\circ}C$. the surface outgrowth may be due to the anisotropic growth rate. The highest transition temperature obtained in this study was $Tc_{zero}$ of 83K with $Tc_{onset}$ of 88K for the film deposited at $590^{\circ}C$ using activated RF oxygen plasma.

A novel deposition process for n-type nanocrystalline silicon (n-type nc-Si) thin films at room temperature has been developed by adopting the neutral beam assisted chemical vapor deposition (NBa-CVD). During formation of n-type nc-Si thin film by the NBa-CVD process with silicon reflector electrode at room temperature, the energetic particles could induce enhance doping efficiency and crystalline phase in polymorphous-Si thin films without additional heating on substrate; The dark conductivity and substrate temperature of P-doped polymorphous~nano crystalline silicon thin films increased with increasing the reflector bias. The NB energy heating substrate(but lower than $80^{\circ}C$ and increase doping efficiency. This low temperature processed doped nano-crystalline can address key problem in applications from flexible display backplane thin film transistor to flexible solar cell.

An attempt was made to study wetting behavior of various low temperature molten frist on ceramic substrates including high alumina silicon carbide and porous fired clay plates by Sessile-drop method. The cosine values of contact angles between substrates and molten frist were linear as a function of temperature unless chemical reactions between substrate and molten frit occured. Addition of BaO to frit composition indicated that cosine of values of contact angles were gradually increased with increasing temperature but in the frist contained $Li_2O$ consine values were abruptly increased with increasing temperature after reached a certain temperature. The contact angle increased with increasing roughness of the substrate surface in case of alumina substrate plate.

Platinum thin films were deposited on Si-wafer by DC rnagnetron sputtering for RTD (resistance thermometer devices). We investigated the physical and electrical characteristics of these films under various conditions, the input power, working vacuum, temperature of substrate and also after annealing these films. The deposition rate was increased with increasing the input power but decreased with increasing Ar gas pressure. The resistivity and sheet resistivity were decreased with increasing the temperature of substrate and the annealing time at 1000.deg. C. At substrate temperature of >$300^{\circ}C$, input power of 7 w/cm$^{2}$, working vacuum of 5 mtorr and annealing conditions of 1000.deg. C and 240 min, we obtained 10.65.mu..ohm..cm, resistivity of Pt thin films and 3800-3900 ppm/.deg. C, TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance). These values are close to the bulk value. These results indicate that the Pt thin films deposited by DC magnetron sputtering have potentiality for the development of Pt RTD temperature sensor.

We have investigated the effect of an ion shower doping of the laser annealed poly-Si films at an elevated substrate temperatures. The substrate temperature was varied from room temperature to 300$^{\circ}C$ when the poly-Si film was doped with phosphorus by a non-mass-separated ion shower. Optical, structural, and electrical characterizations have been performed in order to study the effect of the ion showering doping. The sheet resistance of the doped poly-Si films was decreased from7${\times}$106 $\Omega$/$\square$ to 700 $\Omega$/$\square$ when the substrate temperature was increased from room temperature to 300$^{\circ}C$. This low sheet resistance is due to the fact that the doped film doesn't become amorphous but remains in the polycrystalline phase. The mildly elevated substrate temperature appears to reduce ion damages incurred in poly-Si films during ion-shower doping. Using the ion-shower doping at 250$^{\circ}C$, the field effect mobility of 120 $\textrm{cm}^2$/(v$.$s) has been obtained for the n-channel poly-Si TFTs.

In this study, we have investigated the effect of the substrate temperature and hydrogen flow rate on the characteristics of IGZO thin films for the TCO(transparent conducting oxide). For this purpose, IGZO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering at room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$ with various $H_2$ flow rate. In order to investigate the influences of the hydrogen, the flow rate of hydrogen in argon mixing gas has been changed from 0.1sccm to 1.0sccm. IGZO thin films deposited at room temperature show amorphous structure, whereas IGZO thin films deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ show crystalline structure having an (222) preferential orientation. The electrical resistivity of the amorphous-IGZO films deposited at R.T. was lower than that of the crystalline-IGZO thin films deposited at $300^{\circ}C$. The increase of electrical resistivity with increasing substrate temperature was interpreted in terms of the decrease of the charge carrier mobility. The transmittance of the IGZO films deposited at $300^{\circ}C$ was decreased deposited with hydrogen gas.

Al doped ZnO thin films have been deposited by a RF magnetron sputtering technique from a ZnO (2 wt.% $Al_2O_3$) target onto glass substrates heated at temperature ranging from RT to $400^{\circ}C$. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the deposits have a preferential growth along the c-axis of a hexagonal structure. The full with at half maximum decreases from 0.45 to $0.43^{\circ}$ in the studied temperature range. The root main square surface roughness increases with substrate temperature from 1.89 to 2.67 nm. All films are transparent up to 80% in the visible wavelength range and the adsorption edge is red-shifted with substrate temperature from RT to $400^{\circ}C$. The sheet resistance increases from 92 ohm/sq to 419 ohm/sq when the deposition temperature increases from RT to $400^{\circ}C$. The increment of sheet resistance is caused by lowered carrier concentration resulting from an increase in surface roughness.

For more effective temperature control of atmospheric plasma sprayed (APS) zirconia thermal barrier coating, understanding of the parameters, which influence the substrate temperature, is essential and also more numerical results based on the experimental data are required. This study aims to investigate the substrate temperature control during an APS process. The APS process deals with air-cooled systems, plasma-gas flow, powder feed rate, robot velocity, and substrate effect on the substrate surface temperature control during the process. This systematic approach will help to handle the temperature control, and thus lead to better coating quality.

Process variables for manufacturing the $CuInSe_2$ thin film were established in order to clarify optimum conditions for growth of the thin film depending upon process conditions (substrate temperature, sputtering pressure, DC/RF Power), and then by changing a number of vapor deposition conditions and Annealing conditions variously, structural and electrical characteristics were measured. Thereby, optimum process variables were derived. For the manufacture of the $CuInSe_2$, Cu, In and Se were vapor-deposited in the named order. Among them, Cu and In were vapor-deposited by using the sputtering method in consideration of their adhesive force to the substrate, and the DC/RF power was controlled so that the composition of Cu and In might be 1 : 1, while the surface temperature having an effect on the quality of the thin film was changed from $100^{\circ}C\;to\;300^{\circ}C$ at intervals of $50^{\circ}C$. The diffract fringe of X-ray, which depended upon the substrate temperature and the Annealing temperature of the manufactured $CuInSe_2$ thin film, was investigated. scanning electron microgaphs of represents a case that a sample manufactured at the substrate temperature of $100^{\circ}C$ was thermally treated at $200{\times}350^{\circ}C$. As a result, at $500^{\circ}C$ of the Annealing temperature, their chemical composition was measured in the proportion of 1 : 1 : 2. It could be known that under this condition, the most excellent thin film was formed, compared with the other conditions.

A technique for measuring surface temperature field in micro scale is newly proposed, which uses temperature-sensitive fluorescent (TSF) dye coated on the surface and is easily implemented with a fluorescence microscope and a CCD camera. The TSF dye is chosen among mixtures of various chemical compositions including rhodamine B as the fluorescent dye to be most sensitive to temperature change. In order to examine the effectiveness of this temperature measurement technique, numerical analysis and experiment on transient conduction heat transfer for two different substrate materials, i. e., silicon and glass, are performed. In the experiment, to accurately measure the temperature with high resolution temperature calibration curves were obtained with very fine spatial units. The experimental results agree qualitatively well with the numerical data in the silicon and glass substrate cases so that the present temperature measurement method proves to be quite reliable. In addition, it is noteworthy that the glass substrate is more appropriate to be used as thermally-insulating locally-heating heater in micro thermal devices. This fact is identified in the temperature measuring experiment on the locally-heating heaters made on the wafer of silicon and glass substrates. Accordingly, this technique is capable of accurate and non-intrusive high-resolution measurement of temperature field in microscale.
