The $SrTiO_3$ thin films were prepared on Ag/TiN-coated and p-type bare Si(100) substrates by r.f. magnetron sputtering deposition technique. The electrical properties of the deposited films were investigated, which controlling deposition parameters such as substrate temperature and film thickness. The electrical properties ofthe $SrTiO_3$ films were measured using the capacitance-voltage(C-V) technique. The thickness dependence of the electrical properties of the $SrTiO_3$ films was analyzed of the connection with the films in series. The substrate affected the crystal structure and texture characteristics of the $SrTiO_3$ films. The resistivity of the film, sandwiched between Al and Ag films was measured, as a function of the temperature.

The dielectric carbon nitride thin films were deposited onto Si(100) substrate using a pulsed laser ablation of pure graphite target combined with a high voltage discharge plasma in the presence of a N$_2$ reactive gas. We calculated dielectric constant, $\varepsilon$$\_$s/, with a capacitance Schering bridge method. We investigated the influence of the laser ablation of graphite target and DC high voltage source for the plasma. The properties of the deposited carbon nitride thin films were influenced by the high voltage source during the film growth. Deposition rate of carbon nitride films were increased drastically with the increase of high voltage source. Infrared absorption clearly shows the existence of C=N bonds and C=N bonds. The carbon nitride thin films were observed crystalline phase confirmed by x-ray diffraction data.

The dielectric carbon nitride thin films were deposited onto Si(100) using a pulsed laser ablation of pure graphite target combined with a high voltage discharge plasma in nitrogen gas atmosphere. We can be calculated dielectric constant, ${\varepsilon}_s$, with a capacitance Sobering bridge method. We reported to investigate the influence of the laser ablation of graphite target and DC high voltage source for the plasma. The properties of the deposited carbon nitride thin films were influenced by the high voltage source during the film growth. Deposition rate of carbon nitride films were found to increase drastically with the increase of high voltage source. Infrared absorption clearly shows the existence of C=N bonds and $C{\equiv}N$ bonds. The carbon nitride thin films were observed crystalline phase, as confirmed by x-ray diffraction data.

(Sr$\sub$0.85/Ca$\sub$0.15/)TiO$_3$thin films were deposited on Pt-coated TiO$_2$/SiO$_2$/Si wafer by the rf sputtering method. Experiments were conducted to investigate the electrical properties of SCT thin films with various top electrode. C-F and C-V measurements show that SCT thin films annnealed at 600$^{\circ}C$ have a larger capacitance than SCT thin films deposited at 400$^{\circ}C$ , and there is nearly no difference between top electrodes. I-V measurement show that Pt top electrode have a good leakage current density of < 10nA/$\textrm{cm}^2$,. making them suitable for DRAM application.

The$(Sr_{1-x}Ca_x)TiO_3$(SCT) thin films are deposited on Pt-coated electrode $(Pt-TiN /SiO_2Si)$ using RF sputtering method at various deposition temperature. The crystallinity of thin films was increased with increased of deposition temperature n the temperature range of 200~500 $[^{\circ}C]$. The capacitance changes almost linearly in temperature ranges of -80~+90$[^{\circ}C]$. All SCT thin films used in the study the phenomena of dielectric relaxation with the increase of frequency, and the relaxation frequency is observed above 200[kHz]. V-I characteristics of SCT thin films show the increasing leakage current with the increases of deposition temperature.

Perovskite oxide materials are very important for the electronics industry, because they exhibit promising properties. With an interest in the obvious applications, significant effort has been invested in the growth of highly crystalline epitaxial perovskite oxide thin films in our laboratory. And the desired structure of films was formed to achieve excellent properties. $Y_1Ba_2Cu_3O_{7-x}$ (YBCO) superconducting thin films were simultaneously deposited on both sides of 3 inch wafer by inverted cylindrical sputtering. Values of microwave surface resistance R$_2$ (75 K, 145 GHz, 0 T) smaller than 100 m$\Omega$ were reached over the whole area of YBCO thin films by pre-seeded a self-template layer. For implementation of voltage tunable high-quality varactor, A tri-layer structured SrTiO$_3$ (STO) thin films with different tetragonal distortion degree was prepared in order to simultaneously achieve a large relative capacitance change and a small dielectric loss. Highly a-axis textured $Ba_{0.65}Sr_{0.35}TiO_3$ (BST65/35) thin films was grown on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate for monolithic bolometers by introducing $Ba_{0.65}Sr_{0.35}RuO_3$ (BSR65/35) thin films as buffer layer. With the buffer layer, the leakage current density of BST65/35 thin films were greatly reduced, and the pyroelectric coefficient of $7.6\times10_{-7}$ C $cm^{-2}$ $K^{-1}$ was achieved at 6 V/$\mu$m bias and room temperature.

The SiOCH films that low dielectric interlayer dielectric materials were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrates through the dissociation of BTMSM precursors with oxygen gas by using PECVD method. BTMSM precursor was introduced with the flow rates from 42 sccm to 60 sccm by 2 sccm step in the constant flow rate of 60 sccm $O_2$. SiOCH thin films were annealed at $450^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes. The electrical property of SiOCH thin films was studied by MIS, Al/SiOCH/p-Si(100), structure. Annealed samples showed even greater reductions of the maximum capacitance and the dielectric constant of the SiOCH samples, owing to reductions of surface charge density. we confirmed this result with derivative of C-V characteristic, leakage current density. The maximum capacitance and leakage current density were respectively decreased about 4 pF, 60% after annealing. The average of low-k value is approximatly 2.07 after annealing.

In this paper, multiple regression analysis of the electrical characteristics for $HfO_2$ thin films grown by metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE) was investigated. The electrical properties, such as, the accumulation capacitance and the hysteresis index, are the main factors to determine the characteristics of $HfO_2$ thin films. The input factors on the process are the substrate temperature, Ar gas flow, and $O_2$ gas flow. For statistical analysis, the design of experiments was carried out and the effect plots were used to analyze the manufacturing process. This methodology can predict the electrical characteristics of the thin film growth mechanism related to the process conditions.

strontium titanate (SrTiO3) thin films deposited on Pt/MgO were prepared by Plasma Enhanced Metal Orgainc Chemical vapor Deposition (Pe-MOCVD). The crystallinity of SrTiO3 thin films increased with increasing depo-sition temperature and SrF2 second phase disappeared at 55$0^{\circ}C$ The films showed a dielectric constant of 177 and a dissipation factor of 0.0195 at 100 kHz. The variation of capacitance of the films with applied voltage was small showing paraelectric properties. The charge storage density and leakage current density were 40fC/${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$2 and 3.49$\times$10-7 A/cm2 at 0.25 MV/cm, respectively.

$Bi_6Mg_2Nb_4O_{21}(BMN)$ thin films were deposited at various substrates by sputtering system for embedded capacitor applications. BMN thin films deposited at room temperature are manufactured as MIM(Metal/Insulator/Metal) structures. Dielectric properties and leakage current density were investigated as a function of various substrates and thickness of BMN thin films. Leakage current density of BMN thin films deposited on CCL(Copper Clad Laminates) showed relatively high value ($1{\times}10^{-3}A/cm^2$) at an applied field of 300 kV/cm on substrates, possibly due to relatively high value of roughness(rms $50{\AA}$) of CCL substrates. 100 nm-thick BMN thin films deposited on Cu/Ti/Si substrates showed the capacitance density of $300 nF/cm^2$, a dielectric constant of 32, a dielectric loss of 2 % at 100 kHz and the leakage current density of $1{\times}10^{-6}A/cm^2$ at an applied field of 300 kV/cm. BMN capacitors are expected to be promising candidates as embedded capacitors for printed circuit board(PCB).
