  • Blue-green and green LEDs have been successfully fabricated grown by MBE, which has introduced the $ZnS_ySe_{1-x-y}:Te_x$ (x=0.04, y~0.11-0.14) ternary epilayer as an active layer. From the I-V characteristics, the built-in voltage (~2.1 V) is very small compared to other wide bandgap LEDs, such as commercial InGaN-based LEDs (>3.2 V). From the C-V profiling, the effective carrier concentration in the p-type ZnMgSSe cladding layer was evaluated as ${\sim}2.8{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ for the present LEDs.

  • Compounds of Ga, such as gallium oxide (Ga2O3) and gallium nitride (GaN), are of interest due to its unique properties in semiconductor application. In particular, GaN has the potentially application for optoelectronic device such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs) [1]. Nanoparticle is an interesting material due to its unique properties compared to the bulk equivalents. In this report, we develop a synthesizing method for gallium nitride nanoparticle using non-thermal plasma. For gallium source, the gallium is heated by thermal conduction of tungsten boat which is heated by eddy current induced from RF current in antenna. Nitrogen source for nanoparticle synthesis are from inductively coupled plasma with N2 gas. The synthesized nano particles are analyzed using field-emission scanning microscope (FESEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM) and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The synthesized particles are investigated and discussed in wide range of experiment conditions such as flow rate, pressure and RF power.

  • We report a study of Zn(S)Se/GaAs heterojunction solar cells grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Zn(S)Se/GaAs heterostructures prepared under different conditions were characterized in-situ by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). Structural and electrical properties were investigated with double crystal X-ray diffraction and current-voltage characteristics, respectively. The fabricated $n-ZnS_{0.07}Se_{0.93}/p-GaAs$ solar cell (SC #2) exhibited open circuit voltage($V_{oc}$) of 0.37 V, short circuit current($I_{sc}$) of $1.7{\times}10^{-2}$ mA, fill factor of 0.62 and conversion efficiency of 7.8 % under 38.5 $mW/cm^2$ illumination.

  • Phase formation and electrical conduction behavior of Ba-doped LaBaGa $O_4$ layered perovskite were studied. Orthorhombic single phase of $K_2$Ni $F_4$-type structure was observed for the composition range of 0$\leq$x$\leq$0.2 in the La$\_$1+x/Ba$\_$1+x/Ga $O_4$$\_$4-$\delta$/ system by X-ray analysis. In the dry atmosphere, La$\_$0.8/Ba$\_$1.2/Ga$\_$3.9/ exhibited mixed conduction of oxygen ion and hole (p-type) at high p( $O_2$). However, in water vapor containing atmosphere, it showed proton conduction due to the incorporation of water into oxygen vacancies. As the temperature decreased, the contribution of proton conductivity to the total conduction increased and proton conduction was dominant below 350$^{\circ}C$. The activation energy for proton conduction was calculated as 0.72 eV.

  • 본 연구에서는 기상 성장법 (VPE : vapor phase epitaxy) 으로 성장된 $n^+(Si:2X10^18cm^-3)$/$n(Si:1x10^17cm^-3)$구조의 시편 위에 SiN 과 감광막 등 식각 선택비가 서로 다른 두 물질로 보호된 소스와 드레인 사이의 게이트 형성 영역을 건식식각과 습식식각방법으로 리세스 에칭을 하여 형성한 후, 게이트를 자기정렬하여 형성시킬 수 있는 이중 리세스공정 기술을 개발하였고, 이를 통하여 전력용 MESFET 소자를 제작하였다.게이트 형성부분의 wide recess 폭은 건식식각으로 SiN을 측면식각(lateral etch) 함으로써 조절하였는데, 이 방법을 사용하여 MESFET 소자의 임계전압을 조절할 수 있고, 동시에 소스-드레인 항복전압을 30V 까지 향상시킬 수 있었다. 소스-드레인 항복전압은 wide recess 폭이 증가함에 따라, 그리고 게이트 길이가 길어짐에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보여주었다. 이 방법으로 제작한 여러종류의 MESFET 중에서 게이트 길이가 $2\mum$이고 소스-게이트 간격이 $3 \mum$인 MESFET의 전기적 특성은 최대 트랜스컨덕턴스가 120 mS/mm, 게이트 전압이 0.8V 일 때 포화드레인전류가 170~190mA/mm로 나타났다. 제작된 MESFET이 ($NH_4$)$_2$$S_x$ 용액에 담금처리될때 , 공기중에 노출된 게이트-드레인 사이의 n-GaAs층의 표면이 유황으로 보호되어 공기노출에 의한 표면 재산화막의 형성이 억제되었기 때문으로 사료된다.

  • A new strain analysis model, so called the stress matched model, in an epitaxial multilayer system is proposed. The model makes it possible to know the strain, the stress, the elastic strain energy in each epitaxial layer. Analytical formulas of strain parameters in each epitaxial layer are derived under assumptions that the substrate thickness is finite and the in-plane lattice constant is the same for all epitaxial layers for dislocation free growth. As an example, the model is applied to a 405nm InGaN/InGaN multiple quantum well laser diode. Analysis result shows that AlxGa1-xN layer with Al mole fraction of 0.06 and the thickness of 6${\mu}m$ is one of good templates for a laser. In fact, this layer structure coincides with experimentally optimized one.

  • The Cu$(In_{1-x}Ga_x)Se_2$ is the absorber material for thin film solar cell with high absorption coefficient of $1{\times}10^5cm^{-1}$. In the case of CIGS, the movable energy band gap from $CuInSe_2$ (1.00 eV) to $CuGaSe_2$ (1.68 eV) can be acquired while controlling Ga contain ratio. Generally, the co-evaporator method have used for development and fabrication of the CIGS absorption layer. However, this method should need many steps and lengthy deposition time with high temperature. For these reasons, in this paper, a new growth method of CIGS layer was attempted to hydride vapor transport (HVT) method. The CIGS mixed-source material reacted for HCl gas in the source zone was deposited on the substrate after transporting to growth zone. c-plane $Al_2O_3$ and undoped GaN were used as substrates for growth. The characteristics of grown samples were measured from SEM and EDS.

  • Ga2O3-core/CdO-shell nanowires were synthesized by a two step process comprising thermal evaporation of GaN powders and sputter-deposition of CdO. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses revealed that the cores and the shells of the annealed coaxial nanowires were single crystal of monoclinic Ga2O3 and FCC CdO, respectively. As-synthesized Ga2O3 nanowires showed a broad emission band at approximately 460 nm in the blue region. The blue emission intensity of the Ga2O3 nanowires was slightly decreased by CdO coating, but it was significantly increased by subsequent thermal annealing in a reducing atmosphere. The major emission peak was also shifted from ~500 nm by annealing in a reducing atmosphere, which is attributed to the increases in the Cd interstitial and O vacancy concentrations in the cores.

  • The chemical-mechanical polishing process was carried out for 2"-dia. sapphire wafer grown by horizontalBridgman method on the urethane lapping pad with the silica sol. The polished wafer shows the full-width at halfmaximum of 200~400 arcsec in double-crystal X-ray diffraction, indicating that the slicing, grinding and lapping processes before the polishing process affected the crystalline structural property of the wafer surface by the mechanical residual stress. For the inclusion of surface treatments after chemical-mechanical polishing such as the thermal annealing at the temperature of $1,200^{\circ}C$for 4 hrs. and chemical etching, the crystalline quality was sigdicantly enhanced with the reduced full-width at half maximum up to 8.3 arcsec.arcsec.

  • The hetero-epitaxial growth of AmB v type onto-electronic material is attempted by means of the laser-induced chemical vapour deposition technique. The bimolecular gas phase reaction of trimethylgallium with ammonia on (001) alumina substrate for the epitaxy of gallium nitride is chosen as a model system. In this study, ArF exciter laser (193nm) is employed as a photon source. Marked difference is found in nucleation and in subsequent crystal incorporation between the doposits formed with and without the laser-irradiation. The surface coverage with isomorphically grown drystallites is pronounced upon "volume-excited" irradiation in comparison with the conventional thermal process. As to the crystal structure of the grown layers, the laser-induced deposits of GaN may be represented by either of the following two models: (001) plane of sapphire //y (001) plane of wurtzite-type GaN, OR (001) plane of sapphire//(001) plane of wurtzite-type-GaN (111) plane of twinned zinc blende-type GaN.
