Pulsed metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of conformal copper seed layers, for the electrodeposition Cu films, has been achieved by an alternating supply of a Cu(I) source and $H_2$ reactant at the deposition temperatures from 50 to $100^{\circ}C$. The Cu thickness increased proportionally to the number of cycles, and the growth rate was in the range from 3.5 to $8.2{\AA}/cycle$, showing the ability to control the nano-scale thickness. As-deposited films show highly smooth surfaces even for films thicker than 100 nm. In addition about a $90\%$ step coverage was obtained inside trenches, with an aspect ratio greater than 30:1. $H_2$, introduced as a reactant gas, can play an active role in achieving highly conformal coating, with increased grain sizes.

Both ZnO and GaN have excellent physical properties in optoelectronic devices such as blue light emitting diode (LED), blue laser diode (LD), and ultra-violet (UV) detector. The ZnO/GaN heterostructure, which has a potential to achieve the cost efficient LED technology, has been fabricated by using radio frequency (RF) sputtering, pyrolysis, metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), direct current (DC) arc plasmatron, and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) methods. Among them, the PLD system has a benefit to control the composition ratio of the grown film from the mixture target. A 500-nm-thick ZnO film was grown by PLD technique on c-plane GaN/sapphire substrates. The post annealing process was executed at some varied temperature between from $300^{\circ}C$ to $900^{\circ}C$. The morphology and crystal structural properties obtained by using atomic force microscope (AFM) and x-ray diffraction (XRD) showed that the crystal quality of ZnO thin films can be improved as increasing the annealing temperature. We will discuss the post-treatment effect on film quality (uniformity and reliability) of ZnO/GaN heterostructures.

agnesium Oxide (MgO) with a NaCI structure is well known to exhibit high secondary electron emission, excellent high temperature chemical stability, high thermal conductance and electrical insulating properties. For these reason MgO films have been widely used for a buffer layer of high $T_c$ superconducting and a protective layer for AC-plasma display panels to improve discharge characteristics and panel lifetime. Up to now MgO films have been synthesized by lE-beam evaporation, Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD), however there have been some limitations such as low film density and micro-cracks in films. Therefore magnetron sputtering process were emerged as predominant method to synthesis high density MgO films. In previous works, we designed and manufactured unbalanced magnetron source with high power density for the deposition of high quality MgO films. The magnetron discharges were sustained at the pressure of O.lmtorr with power density of $110W/\textrm{cm}^2$ and the maximum deposition rate was measured at $2.8\mu\textrm{m}/min$ for Cu films. In this study, the syntheses of MgO films were carried out by unbalanced magnetron sputtering with various $O_2$ partial pressure and specially target power densities, duty cycles and frequency using pulsed DC power supply. And also we investigated the plasma states with various $O_2$ partial pressure and pulsed DC conditions by Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES). In order to confirm the relationships between plasma states and film properties such as microstructure and secondary electron emission coefficient were analyzed by X-Ray Diffraction(XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy(TEM) and ${\gamma}-Focused$ Ion Beam (${\gamma}-FIB$).

Metal/ferroelectric/insulator/semiconductor(MFIS)-Field Effect Transistor을 위한 Pt/YMnO$_3$/Y$_2$O$_3$/Si 구조를 제조하여 MFIS 구조의 특성에 미치는 $Y_2$O$_3$박막의 영향을 고찰하였다. PLD법을 이용하여 p=type Si(111) 기판 위에 증착시킨 $Y_2$O$_3$박막은 증착온도와 관계없이 (111)방향으로의 우선배향성을 갖고 결정화 되었다. 실리콘 위에 바로 MOCVD법에 의해 강유전체 YMnO$_3$박막을 증착시킨 경우 실리콘과의 계면에서 Mn이 부족한 층이 형성되지만 $Y_2$O$_3$가 실리콘과 YMnO$_3$사이에 삽입된 경우는 $Y_2$O$_3$바로 위에서부터 화학양론비에 일치하는 양질의 YMnO$_3$박막을 얻을 수 있었다. 85$0^{\circ}C$, 100mtorr의 진공분위기에서 열처리한 YMnO$_3$박막은 $Y_2$O$_3$가 삽입된 경우 memory window 값이 $Y_2$O$_3$가 삽입되지 않은 경우보다 더 큰 값을 보였으며 5V에서 1.3V의 값을 보였다.

A laser diode(LD) structure consisting of a single 150$\AA$ $Al_{0.07}$Ga$_{0.93}$As quantum well active region operating at ${\lambda}$=809nm, cladded with an AlGaAs graded-index separate confinement heterostructure, has bes been grown by MOCVD. Temperature coefficient of wavelength is approximately 0.2nm $^{\circ}C$ for the diode. The active aperture consists of five emitters separated from each other by means of SiO$_{2}$ deposition and stripe formation, which creates insulating regions that channel the current to 100-$\mu$m-wide stripes placed on 450-$\mu$m centers. From a typical uncoated LD, the output power of 0.8W has been obtained at a 1$\mu$s, 1kHz pulsed current level of 2.0$\AA$, which results in about 64% external quantum efficiency. The threshold current density is 736A/cm$^{2}$ for the case of 500$\mu$m cavity length LD's. The measure of an internal quantum efficiency was 75.8% and the internal loss 4.83$cm^{-1}$ . Finally, 3.1W output power has been obtained at a 1$\mu$s, 1kHz pulsed current level of 9A from the 500$\mu$m-aperture LD array with 460-$\mu$m- cavity length.

Ti(C,N) 박막을 온도범위 $200-300^{\circ}C$에서 tetrakis diethylamido titanium유기금속 화합물을 전구체로 이용하여 pulsed DC 플라즈마 보조 유기금속 화학기상 증착법 (PEMOCVD)으로 합성하였다. 본 연구에서는 플라즈마 특성을 서로 비교하기 위하여 수소$(N_2)$와 헬륨/수소$(He/H_2)$ 혼합기체를 각각 운반기체로 사용하였으며 전구체 이외에 질소$(N_2)$와 암모니아$(NH_3)$ 기체를 반응기체로 사용하여 서로 다른 플라즈마 화학조건에서 얻어지는 박막내의 탄소함유량(C Content)의 변화를 비교하여 탄소가 가장 적게 함유된 저온 코팅막 합성공정을 찾으려고 하였다. 이를 위하여 증착시 서로 다른 pulsed bias 전압과 기체종류 하에서 여기된 플라즈마 상태의 라디칼종들과 이온화 경향을 in-situ optical emission spectroscopy(OES)법으로 플라즈마 진단분석을 실시하였다. 그 결과 $(He/H_2)$ 혼합기체를 $N_2$와 함께 사용할 경우 라디칼 종들의 이온화를 매우 효과적으로 향상시킴을 관찰하였다. 아울러 $NH_3$ 기체를 $H_2$ 또는 $He/H_2$ 혼합기체와 같이 사용할 경우는 CN 라디칼의 생성을 억제하여 결과적으로 Ti(C, N) 박막내의 탄소함량을 크게 낮춤을 알 수 있었고, CN 라디칼의 농도가 탄소 함유량과 많은 관련이 있음을 알았다. 이 결과는 바로 박막의 미세경도와도 연관이 되며, bias전압과 기체종류에 크게 의존하여 Ti(C, N) 박막의 미세경도가 1250 - 1760 Hk0.01 사이에서 나타났고, 최대치$(1760\;Hk_{0.01})$는 600 V bias 전압과 $H_2$와 $N_2$ 기체를 사용한 경우에 얻어졌다. HF(C, N) 박막 역시 tetrakis diethylamido hafnium 전구체와 $N_2/He-H_2$ 혼합기체를 이용하여 pulsed DC PEMOCVD 법으로 기판온도 $300^{\circ}C$ 이하, 공정압력 1 Torr, 그리고 bias전압과 기체 혼합비를 변화시키면서 증착하였다. 증착시 in-situ OES 분석결과 플라즈마 내의 질소종의 함유량 변화에 따라 증착속도가 크게 변화됨을 알 수 있었고, 많은 질소기체를 인입하면 질소종이 많아지지만 증착률은 급격히 감소하였고 박막내 탄소의 함량이 커지면서 막질이 비정질로 바뀌고 미세경도 또한 감소함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 in-situ 플라즈마 진단분석이 전체 PEMOCVD 공정에 있어서 대단히 중요하고, Ti(C,N)과 Hf(C,N) 코팅막의 탄소함량과 미세경도는 플라즈마내의 CH과 CN radical종의 세기에 크게 의존함을 의미한다. 그리고 Hf(C,N) 박막의 경우도 Ti(C,N) 박막의 경우와 유사하게 최대 미세경도값$(2460\;Hk_{0.025})$이 -600 V bias 전압과 10% 질소기체 혼합비를 사용한 경우에 얻어졌고, 이는 박막이 주로(111) 방향으로 성장됨에 기인한 것으로 사료된다.

The high-temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) have attached attentions because of a high superconducting transition temperature, low surface resistance, high superconducting critical current density (Jc), and superior superconducting capability under magnetic field. Moreover, the Jc of YBCO superconductors can be enhanced by adding impurities to the YBCO films for vortex-pinning. Understanding and controlling pinning centers are key factors to realize high Jc superconductors. We synthesized vertically-aligned ZnO nanorods on SrTiO3 (STO) substrates by catalyst-free metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and subsequently, deposited YBCO films on the ZnO nanorods/STO templates using pulsed laser deposition (PLD). The various techniques were used to analyze the structural and interfacial properties of the YBCO/ZnO nanorods/STO hybrid structures. SEM, TEM, and XRD measurements demonstrated that YBCO films on ZnO nanorods/STO were well crystallized with the (001) orientation. EXAFS measurements from YBCO/ZnO nanorods/STO at Cu K edge demonstrated that the local structural properties around Cu atoms in YBCO were quite similar to those of YBCO/STO.

Separate-confinement hetero-structure (SCH) broad area Laser Diodes (LD's) were fabricated from $Al_{0.07}$Ga$_{0.93}$/. As single-quantum-well (SQW) grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). Under pulsed operation, we obtained maximum output powers of about 0.8watt/facet and 1.83watt/facet from LD's with 60$\mu$m and 160$\mu$m channel width, respectively, without facet coatings. The differential quantum efficiency of the 60$\mu$m wide LD was about 21.7%/facet and its threshold current density was about 1k [A/cm$^{2}$]. The differential quantum efficiency of the 160$\mu$m wide LD was about 25.6%/facet and its threshold current density was about 1k[A/cm$^{2}$]. The minimum threshold current density of 60$\mu$m wide LD's was 620[A/cm$^{2}$] when the cavity length was 603$\mu$m and the minimum threshold current density of 160$\mu$m wide Ld's was 675[A/cm$^{2}$] when the cavity length was 752$\mu$m. The internal quantum efficienty and the internal loss of both LD's were 92.3% and 18.1cm$^{1}$, respectively.

In this review article, we focus on various co-evaporation technologies developed for the fabrication of high performance $REBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (RE: Y and Rare earth elements, REBCO) superconducting films. Compared with other manufacturing technologies for REBCO films such as sputtering, pulsed laser deposition (PLD), metal-organic deposition (MOD), and metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), the co-evaporation method has a strong advantage of higher deposition rate because metal sources can be used as precursor materials. After the first attempt to produce REBCO films by the co-evaporation method in 1987, various co-evaporation technologies for high performance REBCO films have been developed during last several decades. The key points of each co-evaporation technology are reviewed in this article, which enables us to have a good insight into a new high throughput process, called as a Reactive Co-Evaporation by Deposition and Reaction (RCE-DR).

In the future, electronic components will be integrated on flexible polymer substrates and then miniaturized by thin films using suitable thin film technologies. In this article, the concept of a room temperature CVD is demonstrated using $Bi_3NbO_7$ (BNO) films with a cubic fluorite structure and their structural and electrical properties were investigated in films deposited without substrate heating. Effects of substrate temperature on electrical properties of BNO films were also studied. Films deposited without substrate heating (real temperature of $50^{\circ}C$) show partially crystallized BNO single phases with grain size of approximately 6.5 nm. Their dielectric and leakage properties are comparable to those of films deposited by pulsed laser deposition at room temperature. The concept of room temperature CVD will become a new paradigm in the deposition of dielectric thin films for flexible electron device applications.
