In this research, nitrogen (N)-doped zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films have been grown on a sapphire substrate by dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) in pulsed laser deposition (PLD). DBD has been used as an effective way for massive in-situ generation of N-plasma under conventional PLD process conditions. Low-temperature photoluminescence spectra of N-doped ZnO thin films provided near-band-edge emission after a thermal annealing process. The emission peak was resolved by Gaussian fitting and showed a dominant acceptor-bound excitation peak ($A^{\circ}X$) that indicated acceptor doping of ZnO with N. The acceptor binding energy of the N acceptor was estimated to be approximately 145 MeV based on the results of temperature-dependent photoluminescence (PL) measurements.

High quality CdTe single crystal for the solar cell fabrication was grown by vertical Bridgman method. The etch pits patterns of (111) surfaces of CdTe etched by Nakagawa solution was observed the (111)A compesed of Cd atoms with typical triangle etch pits of pyramid mode. From the photoluminescence measurement on (111)A, we observed free exciton ($E_{x}$) existing only high quality crystal and neutal acceptor bound exciton ($A^{0}$,X) having very strong peak intensity. Then, the full width at half maximum and binding energy of neutral acceptor bound exciton were 7 meV and 5.9 meV, respectively. By Haynes rule, an activation enery of impurity was 59 meV. Therefore, the origins on impurity level acting as a neutral acceptor were associated Ag or Cu elements.

The photoluminescence and the photo-current from p-type GaN films were investigated on both room- and low-temperatures for various Mg doping concentrations. At a low Mg doping level, there exists a photoluminescence center of the donor and the acceptor pair transition of the 3.28-eV band. This center is correlated with the defects for a shallow donor of the VGa and for an acceptor of MgGa. The acceptor level shows the binding energy of 0.2-0.25 eV, which was observed by the photon energy of the photo-current signal of 3.02-3.31 eV. At a high Mg doping level, there is a photoluminescence center of a deep donor and an acceptor pair transition of the 2.76-eV blue band. This center is attributed to the defect structures of MgGa-VN for the deep donor and MgGa for the acceptor. For low. doped samples, thermal annealing provides an additional photo-current signal for an unoccupied deep acceptor levels of 0.87-1.35 eV above valence band, indicating the p-type activation.

GaN films were grown for various Mg doping concentrations in metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. Below the Mg concentration of 10$^{19}$ ㎤, the thermally annealed sample shows the compensated phase to n-type GaN in Hall measurement. In the MB concentration of 4$\times$10$^{19}$ ㎤ corresponding to the hole carrier concentration of 2.6$\times$1$^{19}$ ㎤ there exists a photoluminescence center of the donor and the acceptor pair transition of the 3.28-eV band. This center is correlated with the defects for a shallow donor of the $V_{Ga}$ and for an acceptor of $Mg_{Ga}$ . The acceptor level shows the binding energy of 0.2-0.25 eV, which was observed by the photon energy of the photocurrent signal of 3.02-3.31 eV. Above the Mg concentration of 4$\times$10$^{19}$ ㎤, both the Mg doping level and Mg concentration were saturated and there Is a photoluminescence center of a deep donor and an acceptor pair transition of the 2.76-eV blue band.

The mechanism of interaction of two drugs viz., amoxicillin and cloxacillin with bovine serum albumin has been investigated using fluorescence absorption and circular dichroism spectroscopy. The quenching mechanism of fluorescence of bovine serum albumin by amoxicillin and cloxacillin was discussed. The binding sites number n and apparent binding constant Kwere measured by fluorescence quenching method. The thermodynamic parameters obtained from data at different temperatures were calculated. The distance r between donor (bovine serum albumin) and acceptor (amoxicillin and cloxacillin) was obtained according to Forster theory of non-radiative energy transfer. The effect of common ions on binding constant was also investigated. The results of synchronous fluorescence spectra, UV-vis absorption spectra and circular dichroism of BSA in presence of amoxicillin and cloxacillin show that the conformation of bovine serum albumin changed

ZnO is a widely investigated material for the blue and ultraviolet solid-state emitters and detectors. It has been promoted due to a wide-band gap semiconductor which has large exciton binding energy of 60 meV, chemical stability and low radiation damage. However, there are many problems to be solved for the growth of p-type ZnO for practical device applications. Many researchers have made an efforts to achieve p-type conductivity using group-V element of N, P, As, and Sb. In this letter, we have studied the optical characteristics of the antimony-doped ZnO (ZnO:Sb) thin films by means of photoluminescence (PL), PL excitation, temperature-dependent PL, and time-resolved PL techniques. We observed donor-to-acceptor-pair transition at about 3.24 eV with its phonon replicas with a periodic spacing of about 72 meV in the PL spectra of antimony-doped ZnO (ZnO:Sb) thin films at 12 K. We also investigate thermal activation energy and carrier recombination lifetime for the samples. Our result reflects that the antimony doping can generate shallow acceptor states, leading to a good p-type conductivity in ZnO.

우리는 hot-well epiraxy 방법으로 성장된 ZnSe 박막의 광발광 측정을 10 K에서 실행하였다. as-grown 박막은 upper polartion과 lower polarition으로 분리된 중성 도너(donor) bound exciton $I_2$($D^{\circ}$,X)가 아주 우세하게 관측되었고 Se분위기 열처리 결과 $I_2$기원이 Se-vacancy에 관련이 있음을 알았다. 또 중성 억셉터(acceptor) bound exciton $I_1$$^d$발광이 관측되었다. 그런데 ZnSe는 self-compensated에 의해 p-type 반전이 어렵다. 우리는 Se 분위기 열처리로부터 $I_1$$^d$ 봉우리가 아주 우세함을 보였다. 이것은 열처리한 ZnSe 박막에 억셉터가 풍부하게 존재한다는 것을 의미하며 결과적으로 광학적인 p-type 반전을 분명하게 관측 할 수 있었다. 또한 엑셉터 불순물의 결합 에너지는 268meV이였다. 장파장대에서 SA 발광은 Se 분위기 열처리 후 사라진 것으로 보아 Se-vacancy와 관련이 있는 것으로 고찰되었다.
