InAs는 0.35eV의 낮은 밴드갭을 가지며 상온에서 약 $30,000cm^2/Vs$의 높은 전자이동도를 보여, GaAs/AlGaAs 및 InGaAs/InP 2DEG HEMT에 이은 차세대 초고속 전자소자의 2DEG용 물질로 각광을 받고 있다. 그러나 InAs의 격자상수는 약 0.61nm로 이에 적절한 반절연기판을 구할수 없어, GaAs상에 Al(Ga)Sb를 이용하여 성장하는 방법으로 2DEG을 실현하고 있다. 상기 방법으로 상온에서 ${\sim}30,000cm^2/Vs$ 전자이동도를 보이는 InAs/AlSb 2DEG HEMT 소자를 여러 연구팀에서 시현하였으나, 실제적으로 응용하기 위해서 etch-stop층 또는 contact층의 제작이 용이치 않아 실제의 회로구현에는 어려움을 격고 있다. 이에 InGaAs/InP 2DEG내에 InAs를 넣어 InAs 2DEG을 제작하는 방법이 NTT[1]에 의해 제안되어, SPINTRONICS등의 InAs 2DEG이 필요한 곳에 응용되고 있다. [2] 본 발표에서는 고품질의 InAs 2DEG을 실현하기 위해, 다양한 성장 변수 (온도, As 분압, 성장 시퀀스, InAs층의 두께등)와 2DEG의 전기적특성간의 관계를 발표한다. 최종적으로 상온전자이동도 ${\sim}12,000cm^2/Vs$의 InAs 2DEG을 제작할수 있었으며, 이를 다양한 전자소자에 차후 응용할 예정이다.

In this letter, a standard deviation based optimization technique has been applied on High Resolution X-ray Diffraction symmetric and asymmetric scan results to accurately determine the Aluminum molar fraction and lattice relaxation of Molecular Beam Epitaxy grown compositionally graded Aluminum Gallium Nitride (AlGaN)/Aluminum Nitride/Gallium Nitride (GaN) heterostructures. Mathews-Blakeslee critical thickness model has been applied in an alternative way to determine the partially relaxed AlGaN epilayer thicknesses. The coupling coefficient determination has been presented in a different perspective involving sample tilt method by off set between the asymmetric planes of GaN and AlGaN. Sample tilt is further increased to determine mosaic tilt ranging between $0.01^{\circ}$ and $0.1^{\circ}$.

PURPOSE: The purpose of our study was to compare a 975-nm, 500-mW GaAlAs low-level laser therapy versus placebo low-level laser therapy with regard to the immediate changes on the myofascial trigger point of the dominant upper trapezius muscle in subjects with rounded shoulder posture. METHODS: Thirty-two male college students with rounded shoulder posture and shoulder pain consented to participate in the experiment. The subjects were randomly assigned to a 2-minute procedure with either an active GaAlAs low-level laser or a placebo GaAlAs low-level laser. The pressure-pain threshold and visual analog scale on tenderness at 3 kg were measured with an algometer before and after the laser treatments. RESULTS: The active GaAlAs low-level laser group showed significant changes in pressure-pain threshold and visual analog scale on tenderness at 3 kg (p<0.05). The placebo GaAlAs low-level laser group showed no significant changes in either pressure-pain threshold or visual analog scale on tenderness at 3 kg (p>0.05). CONCLUSION: An immediate effect was observed in pressure-pain threshold and visual analog scale on tenderness at 3 kg following a 2-minute application ($857.14J/cm^2$) of a 975-nm, 500-mW GaAlAs low-level laser to the myofascial trigger point of the dominant upper trapezius muscle in patients with rounded shoulder posture.

Self-assembled InAs quantum dots (QDs) embedded in an InAlGaAs matrix were grown on an InP (001) using a solid-source molecular beam epitaxy and investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. TEM images indicated that the QD formation was strongly dependent on the growth behaviors of group III elements during the deposition of InAlGaAs barriers. We achieved a lasing operation of around 1.5 ${\mu}m$ at room temperature from uncoated QD lasers based on the InAlGaAs-InAlAs material system on the InP (001). The lasing wavelengths of the ridge-waveguide QD lasers were also dependent upon the cavity lengths due mainly to the gain required for the lasing operation.

This paper is for enhancing the breakdown voltage of MHEMTs with an InP-etchstop layer. Gate-recess structures has been simulated and analyzed for the breakdown of the devices with the InP-etchstop layer. The fully removed recess structure in the drain side of MHEMT shows that the breakdown voltage enhances from 2V to almost 4V and that the saturation current at gate voltage of 0V is reduced from 90mA to 60mA at drain voltage of 2V. This is because the electron-captured negatively fixed charges at the drain-side interface between the InAlAs barrier layer and the $Si_3N_4$ passivation layer deplete the InGaAs channel layer more and thus decreases the electron current passing the channel layer. In the paper, the fully-recessed asymmetric gate-recess structure at the drain side shows the on-breakdown voltage enhancement from 2V to 4V in the MHEMTs.

Metamorphic InAlAs/InGaAs HEMT are successfully demonstrated, exhibiting several advantages over conventional P-HEMT on GaAs and LM-HEMT on InP substrate. The strain-relaxed metamorphic structure is grown by MBE on the GaAs substrate with the inverse-step graded InAlAs metamorphic buffer. The device with 40% indium content shows the better characteristics than the device with 53% indium content. The fabricated metamorphic HEMT with $0.2\mu\textrm{m}$T-gate and 40% indium content shows the excellent DC and microwave characteristics of $V_{th}-0.65V,{\;}g_{m,max}=620{\;}mS/mm,{\;}f_T120GHZ{\;}and{\;}f_{max}=210GHZ$.

Application of magnetic fields is important to characterize the carrier dynamics in semiconductor quantum structures. We performed photoluminescence (PL) measurements from an InGaP-AlInGaP single quantum well under pulsed magnetic fields to 50 T. The zero field interband PL transition energy matches well with the self-consistent Poisson-Schr?dinger equation. We attempted to analyze the dimensionality of the quantum well by using the diamagnetic shift of the magnetoexciton. The real quantum well has finite thickness that causes the quasi-two-dimensional behavior of the exciton diamagnetic shift. The PL intensity diminishes with increasing magnetic field because of the exciton motion in the presence of magnetic field.

Size dependent emission properties and the interband optical transition energies in group-III nitride based quantum dots are investigated taking into account the geometrical confinement. Exciton binding energy and the optical transition energy in $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN and $Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN quantum dots are studied. The largest intersubband transition energies of electron and heavy hole with the consideration of geometrical confinement are brought out. The interband optical transition energies in the quantum dots are studied. The exciton oscillator strength as a function of dot radius in the quantum dots is computed. The interband optical absorption coefficients in GaInN/GaN and AlInN/AlN quantum dots, for the constant radius, are investigated. The result shows that the largest intersubband energy of 41% (10%) enhancement has been observed when the size of the dot radius is reduced from $50{\AA}$ to $25{\AA}$ of $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN ($Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN) quantum dot.

Application of magnetic fields is important to characterize the carrier dynamics in semiconductor quantum structures. We performed photoluminescence (PL) measurements from an InGaP-AlInGaP single quantum well under pulsed magnetic fields to 50 T. The zero field interband PL transition energy matches well with the self-consistent Poisson-$Schr{\ddot{o}}dinger$ equation. We attempted to analyze the dimensionality of the quantum well by using the diamagnetic shift of the magnetoexciton. The real quantum well has finite thickness that causes the quasi-two-dimensional behavior of the exciton diamagnetic shift. The PL intensity diminishes with increasing magnetic field because of the exciton motion in the presence of magnetic field.
