The chalcogenide glass (ALS, $Al_2S_3-La_2S_3$) was prepared by melting a stoichiometric mixture of aluminum powder and $La_2S_3$ under $H_2S$ atmosphere at $1200{\circ}C$. Glasses containing 0.1-0.1% of $Mn^{2+},\;Gd^{3+}$ and $Cu^{2+}$ were also prepared. The characteristic features of the ESR spectra for the transition metal containing ALS glasses are interpreted.

Chalcogenide Phase change memory has the high performance necessary for next-generation memory, because it is a nonvolatile memory with high programming speed, low programming voltage, high sensing margin, low power consumption and long cycle duration. To minimize the power consumption and the program voltage, the new composition material which shows the better phase-change properties than conventional $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ device has to be needed by accurate material engineering. In the present work, we investigate the basic thermal and the electrical properties due to phase-change compared with chalcogenide-based new composition $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ material thin film and convetional $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ PRAM thin film. The fabricated new composition $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ thin film exhibited a successful switching between an amorphous and a crystalline phase by applying a 950 ns -6.2 V set pulse and a 90 ns -8.2 V reset pulse. It is expected that the new composition $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ material thin film device will be possible to applicable to overcome the Set/Reset problem for the nonvolatile memory device element of PRAM instead of conventional $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ device.

In this paper, for low cost infrared optical equipment, we design and fabricate an infrared optical system for an uncooled detector using PGM(Precision Glass Molding) lenses. The designed infrared optical system has a good athermalization, and the material of all of its lenses is a chalcogenide glass suitable for the PGM method. In addition, we also fabricate the same infrared optical system using SPDT(Single Point Diamond Turning) lenses in order to measure the optical performance of PGM lenses. We measure the MTF(Modulation Transfer Function) of the two infrared optical systems which use the PGM lenses and the SPDT lenses. And then we compare and analyze the images of them both. As a result, we find that they have only a very small difference in optical performance. If the use of PGM lenses increases, we expect to reduce the cost of infrared optical equipment.

In this study, we synthesized the chalcogenide glass($Ge_{19}Sb_{23}Se_{58}$) for infrared optics by meltquenching method and verified the effect of cooling condition on the glass properties. The structural and optical properties of the glass were analyzed by XRD, FT-IR and SEM image. The glass synthesized under the cooling temperature of $980^{\circ}C$ shows transmittance of 58% at $8\sim12{\mu}m$, which was decreased as the cooling temperature was decreased. In addition, thermal and hardness also were measured. From the analysis results, we ascertained the feasibility as a molding materials for infrared optics.

Amorphous Semicondyctor로서 Chalcogenide계의 Ge-Se-Bi계 비정질화와 결정화 실험을 통하여 전기전도도를 평가코자 하였다. 시료의 조성범위는 G $e_{15-25}$S $e_{65-85}$B $i_{2.5-15B}$의 범위에서 5N의 Ge, Se, Bi metal분말을 사용하였다. 시료는 석영관에 진공 장입후 용융시켜 비정질화 하였다. 이때 열처리 조건은 1000.deg.C에서 10시간 동안 가열하였으며 급냉 조건은 3834.deg.C/sec로 처리하였다. 비정질 sample의 결정화는 결정핵을 형성 시킨 후 온도 변화 및 시간의 변화를 주면서 결정을 성장시켰으며 이때 B $i_{2}$S $e_{3}$와 GeS $e_{2}$ 결정상을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 박막화는 위의 실험에 사용된 Bulk sample을 사용하여 박막을 제작하였으며 유리화 영역은 Ge 15 at%, Se 70 at% 이상, Bi가 10 at% 이하일 때 비정질화가 용이하였다. Bulk의 경우 Ge를 20 at%로 고정시 Bi의 at% 함량이 증가함에 따라 전기전도도가 증가했으며 Bi가 7.5 at%이상일때 급격한 전도도의 증가를 가져왔다. 박막의 경우엔 Bulk sample보다 Bi의 함량이 증가시 더욱 큰 전도도의 증가를 가져왔다.

We have been carried out the two-beam interference method to form the diffraction grating on chalcogenide $AS_{40}Se_{15}S_{35}Ge_{10}$ thin films for Holography Data Storage (HDS). In the present work, we have been formed holographic diffraction gratings using He-Ne laser (632.8nm) under different Polarization state combinations (intensity polarization holography, phase polarization holography). It was obtained the diffraction grating efficiency by 11st order intensity and investigated the formed grating structure using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). As the results, it is shown that the diffraction efficiency of (P: P) polarized recording was maximum 2.4% and we found that its value was rather higher than that of other-polarized recordings. From the results, it is confirmed that the efficient holographic grating formation on amorphous chalcogenide $AS_{40}Se_{15}S_{35}Ge_{10}$ films depend on both the spatial variation of intensity and the polarization state of the incident field pattern.

The chalcogenide glasses of thin films have the superior property of photoinduced anisotrophy(PA). In this study, we observed the linear dichroism(D) using the irradiation with polarized He-Ne laser light, in the $Ag/As_{10}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$ multi-layer. Mutilayer structures formed by alternating metal(Ag) and chalcogenide($As_{10}Ge_{10}Se_{15}S_{35}$). The Ag polarized photodoping result in reducing time of saturation anisotrophy and increasing sensitivity of linearly anisotrophy intensity, up to maximum 220%. In the thin films of chalcogenide, the Ag polarized photodoping will be show a capability of new method that suggested more improvement of photoinduced anisotrophy property.

Chalcogenide based phase-change memory has a high capability and potential for the next generation nonvolatile memory device. Fast writing speed, low writing voltage, high sensing margin, low power consume and long cycle of read/write repeatability are also good advantages of nonvolatile phase-change memory. We have been investigated the new material for the phase-change memory. Its composition is consists of chalcogenide $Ge_{1}Se_{1}Te_2$ material. We made this new material to solve problems of conventional phase-change memory which has disadvantage of high power consume and high writing voltage. In the present work, we are manufactured $Ge_{1}Se_{1}Te_{2}/Ge_{2}Sb_{2}Te_{5}/Ge_{1}Se_{1}Te_{2}$ and $Ge_{2}Sb_{2}Te_{5}/Ge_{1}Se_{1}Te_{2}/Ge_{2}Sb_{2}Te_{5}$ sandwich triple layer structure devices are manufactured to investigate its electrical properties. Through the present work, we are willing to ensure a potential of substitutional method to overcome a crystallization problem on PRAM device.
