For the preparation of single-crystalline GaN film, heteroepitaxial growth on a sapphire substrate was carried out by halide vapor phase epitaxy(HVPE) method. The resulting GaN films showed n-type conductivity. The insulator type GaN film was made by doping with Zn(acceptor dopant), which showed emission peaks around 2.64 and 2.43 eV. The result of this study indicates that GaN can be obtained in an epitaxial structure of MIS(metal-insulator-semiconductor) junction. The observed data are regarded as fundamental in developing GaN epitaxial films for light emitting devices of hetero-structure type.

The optical properties of (1210) GaN epitaxy films grown on the (1012) $\alpha-A1_2O_3$ substrates have been studied. The hetero-epitaxy films were grown by the halide vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method using $Ga/HC1/NH_3/He$ system at $990^{\circ}C$. XRD, RHEED and SEM are used for the identification of the hetero-epitaxy films structure and surface morphology. The confirmed (1210) GaN epitaxy films were characterized by PL and Raman. By the Raman scattering, the active phonon modes of single-phase GaN films are varied with the arrangement of both polarization and propagation directions of laser beam with reference to the axis in single-phase crystal films. The Y(Z, Y & Z) X geometry allows scattering pat-terns of $A_1(TO)=533\;cm^{-1},\;E_1(TO)=559\;cm^{-1}\;and\;E_2=568 cm^{-1}$ modes, whereas in the Z(Y, Y & Z) X geometry the only $E_2$ mode are observed.

High-quality one-dimensional GaN nanorods and nanowires were synthesized on Ni-coated c-plan sapphire substrate using halide vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE). Their structure and optical properties were investigated by X-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, and photoluminescence techniques. Full substrate coverage of densely packed, uniform, straight and aligned one-dimensional GaN nanowires with a diameter of 80nm were grown at $700{\sim}900^{\circ}C$. The X-ray diffraction patterns, transmission electron microscopic image, and selective area electron diffraction patterns indicate that the one-dimensional GaN nanostructures are a pure single crystalline and preferentially oriented in the [001] direction. We observed high optical quality of GaN nanowires by photoluminescence analysis.

We demonstrated a crack-free ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ on sapphire substrate by horizontal halide vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). Oxygen-and gallium chloride-synthesized Ga metal and HCl were used as the precursors, and $N_2$ was used as the carrier gas. The HCl flow and growth temperature were controlled in the ranges of 10~30 sccm and $450{\sim}490^{\circ}C$, respectively. The surface of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ template grown at $470^{\circ}C$ was flat and the root-mean-square (RMS) roughness was ~2 nm. The full width at half maximum (FWHM) values for the symmetric-plane diffractions, were as small as 50 arcsec and those for the asymmetric-plane diffractions were as high as 1,800 arcsec. The crystal quality of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ on sapphire can be controlled by varying the HCl flow rate and growth temperature.

This paper demonstrates the utility of the Ni-Pd and carbon-nanotube (Ni-Pd-CNT)-based nanoalloy to improve the α-Ga₂O₃ crystal quality using the halide-vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE) method. As result, the overall thickness of the α-Ga₂O₃ epitaxial layer increased from a Ni electroless plating time of 40 s to 11 ㎛ after growth. In addition, the surface morphologies of the α-Ga₂O₃ epilayers remained flat and crack-free. The full-width half-maximum results of the X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that the ($10{\bar{1}}4$) diffraction patterns decreased with increasing nominal thickness.

The study of (0001), (1120) and (1011) GAN epitaxy films grown on the (0001),(1012) and (1120) α-Al2O3 substrates have been investigated using the haliar vapor phaes epitaxy(HVPE) method in Ga/HCI/NH3/He system. XRD, RHEED and SEM are used for the study of the films struction and surface morphology. Chemical composition of the film surface is estimsted by XPS. The following orientation relationships are observed; (0001) GaN /(0001) Al2O3 (1120) GaN/ (1012) Al2O3 and (0001) and (1011) GaN/ (1120) Al2O3 in accordance with growth conditions. The (0001) GaN films grown on(0001) and (1120) a-Al2O3 substrates at higer temperature(1050℃) have shown two dimensional grownth mechanism. Form SEM and RHEED, the smoother surface morphology and better structure are observed for the (1011) GaN films grown on (1120) sapphire at higer temperature.

High-Quality 1-Dimensional InN single crystalline have been grown by Halide Vapor-Phase Epitaxy on the Au catalyst coated Si substrate using the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism. We have been grown 1-dimension InN nanowires having controlled the growth conditions for substrate temperature and gases flow rate. The grown InN nanowire of characteristics for morphologies, crystal structure, and element analysis were carried out by SEM, HR-TEM, and EDS respectively. And the defects of InN crystalline were analyzed by indexing of selective area diffraction pattern with attached HR-TEM. We have successfully obtained the defect-free 1-dimensional InN single crystalline nanowire at the atmosphere pressure.

In this study, we report the effect of VI/III ratio on ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ epilayer on sapphire substrate by halide vapor phase epitaxy. The surface of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ epilayer grown with various VI/III ratios was flat and crack-free. To analyze the optical properties of the ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ epilayers, the transmittance and an optical band gap were measured. The optical band gap was shown to be around 5 eV and showed a proportional increase in VI/III ratios. To determine the crystal quality of alpha gallium oxide grown with a ratio of 23, closed to the theoretical optical band gap, the FWHM was measured by HR-XRD. The calculated dislocation density of screw and edge were $1.5{\times}10^7cm^{-2}$ and $5.4{\times}10^9cm^{-2}$, respectively.

In this study, we report the effect of pre-treatment of alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ grown on a sapphire substrate by halide vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). During the pre-treatment process, 10 sccm of GaCl gas was injected to the sapphire substrate at $470^{\circ}C$. The surface morphologies of the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ layers grown with various pre-treatment time (3, 5, and 10 min) were flat and crack-free. The transmittance of the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ epi-layers was measured to analyze their optical properties. The transmittance was over 80% within the range of visible light. The strain in the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ grown with a pre-treat 5 min was measured, and was found to be close to the theoretical XRD peak position. This can be explained by the reduction of strain having caused a lattice mismatch between the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ layer and sapphire substrate. The calculated dislocation density of the screw and edge were $2.5{\times}10^5cm^{-2}$ and $8.8{\times}10^9cm^{-2}$, respectively.

In this study, we demonstrated a characterization of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ grown on a cone-shape patterned sapphire substrate by using the halide vapor phase epitaxy. An ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ was grown on different size of PSS and c-plane sapphire substrate for comparison to confirm the effect of PSS. In addition, growth time of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ was gradually increased to confirm growth mechanism of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$ grown on the PSS. A growth temperature was changed to $470-550^{\circ}C$. It can be analyzed growth conditions and mechanisms on the cone-shape PSS, resulting in a significant decrease in the FWHM value of an asymmetric plane (10-14) of ${\alpha}-Ga_2O_3$, due to lateral growth that occurs during the growth process.
