AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs have been fabricated using SABM (Self-Aligned Base Metal) process technique. The mesa type HBTs were fabricated through following steps: isolation implant, wet etching, metal lift-off, and airbridge interconnection process. The fabricated HBTs with 2umx10um size emitter showed a common emitter current gain of 10 at a collector current density of Jk=100kA/cm$^{2}$, a breakdown volgate BVCEO of 8V, and the ideality factors of base and collector junctions of 1.6 and 1.1, respectively. On-wafer S-Parameter measurement at 0.5~18GHz has been made for the characterization of the common emitter HBTx with a 2umx10um size emitter. The extrapolated current gain cut-off frequency of ft=30GHz and maximum oscillation frequency of fmax=23 GHz were obtained at a collector current density of Jc=70kA/cm$^{2}$. Small signal HBT equivalent circuit was extracted from the S-Parameter data.

Investigations on the symbolic role, spiritual health benefits and efficacy of the clothing items of the Ga wolomo (chief priest) have received little attention. Highlighting the relevance of these clothes, this paper focuses on the chief priest's dress code for his appointment, confinement, ordination, ceremonial and daily life activities. Data were collected through content analysis, participant observation and interviews with people from selected Ga communities, such as La, Teshie and Ga Mashie. The findings revealed that the selection of the chief priest is confirmed with a special clothing item. His traditional clothes and adornment also have meanings, importance and symbolic interpretations; explained in their uses, colour and style. As the spiritual head, the role of the chief priest's costume is very distinguished and symbolic in executing his duties; protecting, strengthening faith, confidence and assurance during spiritual healing, and when solving pertinent problems in the community. The paper concludes by recommending further research and documentation on other aspects of the Ga clothing culture, such as hand items and hair styles from the pre-colonial period to the present.

The use of a thin film of indium between the ITO and the $n^{+}$-InP contact layers for InP/InGaAs HPTs was studied without degrading its excellent optical transmittance properties. ITO/$n^{+}$-InP ohmic contact was successfully achieved by the deposition of Indium and thermal annealing. The specific contact resistance of about 6.6$\times$$10^{-4}$$\Omega\textrm{cm}^2$ was measured by use of the transmission line method (TLM). However, as the thermal annealing was just performed to ITO/$n^{+}$-InP contact without the deposition of Indium between ITO and $n^{+}$-InP, it exhibited schottky characteristics. In the applications, the DC characteristics of InP/InGaAs HPTs with ITO emitter contacts was compared with that of InP/InGaAs HBTs with the opaque emitter contacts.

The properites of Zn-diffusion in III-V ternary alloy semiconductor $In_{1-x}Ga_{x}p$, which was grown by the temperature gradient solution (TGS) method, have been investigated. The composition, x, dependence of the Zn-diffusion coefficient at $850^{\circ}C$ and the activation energy for Zn-diffusion into $In_{1-x}Ga_{x}p$ were found to be $D850^{\circ}C$(x)= $3.935{\times}10^{-8}exp(-6.84{\cdot}x)$, and $E_{A}(x)=1,28+2,38{\cdot}x$, respectively. From this study, we confirm that the Zn-diffusion in $In_{1-x}Ga_{x}p$ was explainable with the diffusion mechanisms of the interstitial-substitutional, which was widely accepted mechanisms in the III-V binary semiconductors.

III-V magnetic semiconductors initiated by GaMnAs growth at low temperatures via molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has been a hot issue recently for their possible application to spntronics. GaMnN may be one of the candidates for room temperature operating ferromagnetic semiconductors as proposed by a theoretical calculation, However, since GaN was grown at very high temperatures above ∼750$^{\circ}C$ even with MBE, it is expected that the incorporation of Mn into GaN will be limited.

The noise behavior of the Schottky Barrier Gate FET has been investigated by the use of noise equivalent circuit. It has been found that an additional noise source has to be taken into account in the GaAs SBGFET's biased in the pinch-off region; the intervalley scattering noise and the hot electron noise. In this paper, a noise equivalent circuit has been used to determine the noise parameter which was taken into account influence of the saturation velocity of carrier and parasitic resistance.

직접 천이형 물질인 GaN는 그 연구가 활발히 진행되어 청색 발광 및 레이저 다이오드 구현을 이룩하였고, 열적인 안정성이 뛰어나 고온, 고출력 소자용으로도 주목받을 뿐 아니라, piezoelectric, acoustioptic modulators와 negative electron affinity devices와 같은 소자개발도 유망하다. 그러나 이렇게 다양한 응용과 물리적 특성에도 불구하고 깊은 준위의 불순물에 대한 문제는 해결되지 않은 상태이다. 많은 연구에도 불구하고 GaN에 존재하는 불순물의 성격과 그것들이 전도대에 미치는 영향에 관해서는 잘 이해되지 않고 있다. 본 연구에서는 MBE로 성장된 undoped GaN 박막의 깊은 준위에 대한 연구를 위하여 TSC 장치를 이용하여 GaN 깊은 준위를 분석하였다. TSC 실험은 77K에서 400K 사이 온도의 전류 변화를 관찰하였으며 깊은 준위의 활성화 에너지 및 포획 단면적 그리고 방출 진동수를 구하기 위하여 Initial rise method, Peak shape method, Heating rate method, Peak temperature method 등을 이용하였다. 또한 trap의 origin을 밝히기 위해서 수소화를 한후에 TSC 측정을 해보았다.

We studied the influence of GaAs top-layer thickness on the small-signal modulation response and 56 Gb/s four-level pulse-amplitude modulation eye quality of 850 nm vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VCSELs). We considered the proportionality of the gain-saturation coefficient to the photon lifetime. The simulation results that employed the transfer-matrix method and laser rate equations led to the conclusion that the proportionality should be considered for proper explanation of the experimental results. From the obtained optical eyes, we could determine an optimum thickness of the GaAs top layer that rendered the best eye quality of VCSEL. We also compared two results: one result with a fixed gain-saturation coefficient and the other that considered the proportionality. The former result with the constant gain-saturation coefficient demonstrated a better eye quality and a wider optimum range of the GaAs top-layer thickness because the resultant higher damping reduced the relaxation oscillation.

InGaN/GaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) were grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition and their structural and optical properties were studied. When the average In content was increased by increasing TMIn flow rate, PL measurement showed little change in PL peak position and large increase in PL intensity instead. Large changes in PL peak position could be achieved by changing growth temperature. We propose the formation of fixed In content, highly In-rich quantum dot-like phases in InGaN MQWs driven by spinodal decomposition.

In this paper, a model for characteristics in the AlxGa1-xAs layer of MODFET's is presented. The characteristics of conduction band in the AlxGa1-xAs layer is analyzed with the Fermi-Dirac statistics. And using the conduction band energy which is calculated with the numerical calculation method (false-Positon method), the variations of the electric-field distribution, the ionized donor concentration, and the two-dimensional electron gas density with gate voltage are calculated, respectively. The channel formation process for the parasitic MESFET operation in the MOD structure is also analyzed, and the characteristics in the AlxGa1-xAs layer is analytically modeled. The throretical results describe well the general characteristics in the MOD structure.
