In this paper, we investigated dielectric properies for BST thin films that was deposited on MgO/Si substrates using RF magnetron sputtering. In here, MgO film was used to perform that a diffusion b arrier between the BST film and Si substrate and a buffer layer to assist the BST film growth. A d eposition condition for MgO films was RF Power of 50W, substrate temperature of room temperature and the working gas ratio of Ar:O$_2$ were varied from 90:10 to 60:47. Finally we manufactured the cap acitor of Al/BST/MgO/Si/Al structure to know electrical properties of this capacitor through I-V, C-V measurement. In the results, C-V aha racteristic curves was shown a ferroelectric property so we measured P-E. A remanent poliazation and coerceive electric field was present 2$\mu$C/cm$^2$ and -27kV/cm respectively at Ar:O$_2$=90:10. And a va clue of dielectric constant was 86 at Ar:02=90:10.

In this work, the etching characteristics of ZnO thin films were investigated using an inductively coupled plasma(ICP) of HBr/Ar/$CHF_3$ gas mixtures. The plasma characteristics were analyzed by a quadrupole mass spectrometer (QMS) and double langmuir probe (DLP). The surface reaction of the ZnO thin films was investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The etch rate of ZnO was measured as a function of the $CHF_3$ mixing ratio in the range of 0-15% in an HBr:Ar=5:2 plasma at a fixed gas pressure (6mTorr), input power (700 W), bias power (200 W) and total gas flow rate(50sccm). The etch rate of the ZnO films decreased with increasing $CHF_3$ fraction due to the etch-blocking polymer layer formation.

Trivalent cerium ($Ce^{3+}$) activated yttrium aluminum garnet ($Y_3Al_5O_{12}$, YAG) phosphor thin films were deposited on quartz glass substrates by rf magnetron sputtering. The effects of sputtering parameters and annealing condition on the luminescent properties were investigated. The sputtering parameters were $O_2$/Ar gas ratio, rf power, and deposition time. The films were annealed at 1200 $^{\circ}C$ for 5 hours in $N_2+$vacuum atmosphere. Polycrystalline YAG:Ce thin film phosphor could be obtained with a gas ratio of $O_2$/(Ar+$O_2$)=0.5 after post-annealing. PL spectra excited at 450 nm showed a yellow single band at 550 nm.

The piezoelectric ZnO thin films were deposited onto Al/Si substrate in order to figure out the crystalline and the residual stress of deposited films. As the $Ar/O_2$ gas ratio is increased, c-axis orientation of deposited films is significantly enhanced and also the residual stresses of ZnO films are all compressive. They are decreased from -1.2 GPa to -950 MPa as the $Ar/O_2$ gas ratio is increased. A diaphragm-based piezoelectric microspeaker fabricated on ONO films shows about 14 mPa output pressure at 1 kHz with $8V_{peak-to-peak}$.

In this work, we investigated the etching characteristics of TaNO thin films and the selectivity of TaNO to $SiO_2$ in an $O_2$/CF4/Ar inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. The maximum etch rate of TaNO thin film was 297.1 nm/min at a gas mixing ratio of O2/CF4/Ar (6:16:4 sccm). At the same time, the etch rate was measured as a function of the etching parameters, such as the RF power, DC-bias voltage, and process pressure. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis showed the efficient destruction of the oxide bonds by the ion bombardment, as well as the accumulation of low volatile reaction products on the etched surface. Based on these data, the ion-assisted chemical reaction was proposed as the main etch mechanism for the $CF_4$-containing plasmas.

OTFTs (Organic Thin Film Transistors)의 구동에 있어, 게이트 절연막 표면과 채널의 계면상태가 소자의 전기적 특성에 큰 영향을 미치게 된다. OTS(Octadecyltrichlorosilane)등과 같은 습식 SAM(Self Assembly Monolayer)를 이용하거나, $O_2$ Plasma와 같은 건식 표면 처리등 여러 표면 처리법에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 pentacene을 진공 증착하기 전에 게이트 절연막을 $O_2$ plasma와 Ar ion beam을 이용하여 건식법으로 전처리 한 후 표면 특성을 atomic force microscope (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS)를 사용하여 비교 분석하였고, 각 조건으로 OTFT를 제작하여 전기적 특성을 확인하였다. Ar ion beam으로 표면처리 했을 때, $O_2$ plasma처리했을 때 보다 향상된 on/off ratio 전기적 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 표면 세정을 위하여 $O_2$ plasma 처리시 $SiO_2$ 표면의 OH-기와 반응하여 oxide trap density가 높아지게 되고 이로 인하여 off current가 증가하는 문제가 발생한다. 불활성 가스인 Ar ion beam 처리를 할 경우 게이트 절연막의 세정 효과는 유지하면서, $O_2$ Plasma 처리했을 때 증가하게 되는 계면 trap을 억제할 수 있게 되어, mobility 특성은 동등 수준으로 유지하면서 off current를 현저하게 줄일 수 있게 되어, 결과적으로 높은 on/off ratio를 구현할 수 있다는 것을 확인하였다.

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, and AFM analyses. C-axis preferred orientation, resistivity. and surface roughness highly depended on $Ar/O_2$ gas ratios. The resistivity of ZnO thin films rapidly increased with increasing oxygen ratio and the resistivity value of $9{\times}10^7{\Omega}cm$ was obtained at a working pressure of 10 mTorr with $Ar/O_2$=50/50. The surface roughness was also improved with increasing oxygen ratio and the ZnO films deposited with $Ar/O_2$=50/50 showed the excellent roughness value of $28.7{\AA}$.

Catalytic ignition of $H_2/O_2/CO_2$ mixtures over platinum catalyst is experimentally investigated by using microcalorimetry. For comparison, $N_2$ and Ar is also used as diluent gas. The gas mixture flows toward platinum foil heated by electric current at atmosphere pressure and ambient temperature. The ignition temperature range 350-445K according to the fuel ratio, dilution ratio and diluent gas. It increases as the fuel ratio and dilution ratio increase. $H_2/O_2$ mixture with $CO_2$ ignites at higher temperature than with other diluents by 30-50K. Several experimental evidences show the inhibition effects of $CO_2$ in $H_2-O_2$ heterogeneous reaction is considerable

In this work, we etched PZT films with various additive gases ($O_2$ and Ar) in $Cl_2/CF_4$ plasmas, while mixing ratio was fixed at 8/2. After the etching, the plasma induced damages are characterized in terms of hysteresis curves, leakage current, retention properties, and switching polarization. When the electrical properties of PZT etched in $O_2$ or Ar added $Cl_2/CF_4$ were compared, the value of remanent polarization in $O_2$ added $Cl_2/CF_4$ plasma is higher than that in Ar. added plasma. The maximum etch rate of the PZT thin films was 145 nm/min for 30% Ar added $Cl_2/CF_4$ gas having mixing ratio of 8/2 and 110 nm/min for 10% $O_2$ added to that same gas mixture. In order to recover the ferroelectic properties of the PZT thin films after etching, we annealed the etched PZT thin films at $550^{\circ}C$ in an $O_2$ atmosphere for 10 min. From the hysteresis curves, leakage current, retention property and switching polarization, the reduction of the etching damage and the recovery via the annealing was turned out to be more effective when $O_2$ was added to $Cl_2/CF_4$ than Ar. X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the structural damage was lower when $O_2$ was added to $Cl_2/CF_4$. And the improvement in the ferroelectric properties of the annealed samples was consistent with the increased intensities of the (100) and the (200) PZT peaks.

이산화주석은 리튬 이온 전지의 Anode 전극물질, 또는 $H_2$, NO, $NO_2$ 등의 가스 분자가 표면에 흡착되면 전기저항이 변하는 특성을 이용하여 가스센서로 활용되고 있으며, 나노구조를 갖는 이산화주석의 합성과 관련하여 많은 연구가 활발하게 이루어지고 있다. 나노구조물의 경우 Bulk 상태보다 체적 대비 표면적비가 높기 때문에 기체분자의 흡착확률을 높일 수 있으므로 고감도 가스 센서의 구현이 가능하고, Li-ion 이차전지의 경우에도 비정전용량을 향상시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 열화학기상증착 장비를 이용하여 기상수송방법으로 $SnO_2$ 나노구조물을 Si 기판 위에 직접 성장시켰다. 이때 이송가스로 이용되는 고순도 Ar 가스에 고순도 산소가스를 혼합하였고, 산소가스의 혼합량에 따라 다른 형태의 산화주석 나노구조물이 성장되는 것을 확인하였다. 기상수송방법으로 성장된 산화주석 나노구조물의 결정학적 특성은 Raman 분광학 및 XRD 분석을 통하여 확인하였고, 표면형상을 주사전자현미경을 통하여 확인하였다. 분석결과 산화주석 나노구조물은 산소가스 혼합량에 민감하게 영향을 받았으며, 이송가스로 이용되는 고순도 Ar 1000 SCCM에 고순도 산소가스 10 SCCM을 혼합하였을 때, 적당한 두께를 가지면서 Nanodots 형태의 표면형상을 갖는 $SnO_2$ 결정상의 나노구조물이 성장되는 것을 확인하였다.
