Striving to replace the well known silicon nanocrystals embedded in oxides with solution-processable charge-trapping materials has been debated because of large scale and cost effective demands. Herein, a silicon quantum dot-polystyrene nanocomposite (SiQD-PS NC) was synthesized by postfunctionalization of hydrogen-terminated silicon quantum dots (H-SiQDs) with styrene using a thermally induced surface-initiated polymerization approach. The NC contains two miscible components: PS and SiQD@PS, which respectively are polystyrene and polystyrene chains-capped SiQDs. Spin-coated films of the nanocomposite on various substrate were thermally annealed at different temperatures and subsequently used to construct metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) devices and thin film field effect transistors (TFTs) having a structure p-$S^{++}$/$SiO_2$/NC/pentacene/Au source-drain. C-V curves obtained from the MIS devices exhibit a well-defined counterclockwise hysteresis with negative fat band shifts, which was stable over a wide range of curing temperature ($50{\sim}250^{\circ}C$. The positive charge trapping capability of the NC originates from the spherical potential well structure of the SiQD@PS component while the strong chemical bonding between SiQDs and polystyrene chains accounts for the thermal stability of the charge trapping property. The transfer curve of the transistor was controllably shifted to the negative direction by chaining applied gate voltage. Thereby, this newly synthesized and solution processable SiQD-PS nanocomposite is applicable as charge trapping materials for TFT based memory devices.

The optical characterization of self-assembled InAs/AlAs Quantum Dots(QD) grown by MBE(Molecular Beam Epitaxy) was investigated by using Photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy. The influence of thin AlAs barrier on QDs were carried out by utilizing a pumping beam that has lower energy than that of the AlAs barrier. This provides the evidence for the tunneling of carriers from the GaAs layer, which results in a strong QD intensity compared to the GaAs at the 16 K PL spectrum. The presence of two QDs signals were found to be associated with the ground-states transitions from QDs with a bimodal size distribution made by the excitation power-dependent PL. From the temperature-dependent PL, the rapid red shift of the peak emission that was related to the QD2 from the increasing temperature was attributed to the coherence between the QDs of bimodal size distribution. A red shift of the PL peak of QDs emission and the reduction of the FWHM(Full Width at Half Maximum) were observed when the annealing temperatures ranged from 500 $^{\circ}C$ to 750 $^{\circ}C$, which indicates that the interdiffusion between the dots and the capping layer was caused by an improvement in the uniformity size of the QDs.

So far, all reviews and control approaches of spin relaxation have been done on lateral single electron quantum dots. In such structures, many efforts have been done, in order to eliminate spin-lattice relaxation, to obtain equal Rashba and linear Dresselhaus parameters. But, ratio of these parameters can be adjustable up to 0.7 in a material like GaAs under high-electric field magnitudes. In this article we have proposed a single electron QD structure, where confinements in all of three directions are considered to be almost identical. In this case the effect of cubic Dresselhaus interaction will have a significant amount, which undermines the linear effect of Dresselhaus while it was destructive in lateral QDs. Then it enhances the ratio of the Rashba and Dresselhaus parameters in the proposed structure as much as required and decreases the spin states up and down mixing and the deviation angle from the net spin-down As a result to the least possible value.

We model lattice-mismatched group III-V semiconductor $In_{x}Ga_{1-x}$ alloys with the three-parameter anharmonic Kirkwood-Keating potential, which includes realistic distortion effect by introducing anharmonicity. Although the potential parameters were determined based on optical properties of the binary parent alloys InAs and GaAs, simulated dielectric functions, reflectance, and Raman spectra of alloys agree excellently with experimental data for any arbitrary atomic composition. For a wide range of atomic composition, InAs- and GaAs-bond retain their respective properties of binary parent crystals despite lattice and charge mismatch. It implies that use of the anharmonic Kirkwood-Keating potential may provide an optimal model system to investigate diverse and unique optical properties of quantum dot heterostructures by circumventing potential parameter searches for particular local structures.

금속유기화학증착기 (metal-organic chemical vapor deposition)를 이용하여 분포귀환형 (distributed feed back) InP/InGaAs/InP 회절격자 구조를 제작하고 원자력간현미경 (atomic force microscopy)과 주사전자현미경 (scanning electron microscopy) 실험을 통해 표면 및 단면을 분석하였다. 그 위에 분자선증착기(molecular beam epitaxy)법을 이용하여 자발형성 (self-assembled) InAs/InAlGaAs 양자점 (quantum dot)을 성장하고, 광학적 특성을 온도변화 광여기 발광 (photoluminescence)으로 회절격자 구조 없이 성장한 양자점 시료와 비교 분석하였다. 회절격자의 간격 대비 폭의 비가 약 30%인 InP/InGaAs/InP 회절격자가 제작되었으며, 그 위에 성장된 양자점의 경우 상온 파장이 1605 nm에서 PL이 관찰되었다. 이는 회절격자 없이 같은 조건에서 성장된 시료의 상온 파장인 1587 nm 보다 장파장에서 발광하였으며, 회절격자의 영향으로 양자점 크기가 변하였음을 조사하였다.

This study shows the lasing characteristics of InGaAs/InGaAsP multiple-quantum-well waveguide-type depleted optical thyristor (DOT) using the vertical window. The measured switching voltage and current are 3.36 V and 10 ㎂, respectively. The lasing threshold current is 131 mA at 25 ℃. The output peak wavelength is 1570 nm at a bias current of 1.22 Ith and there is not input signal anymore in the output port. The vertical injection depleted optical thyristor - laser diode (VIDOT-LD) using the vertical-injection structure shows very good isolation between input and output signal.

Migration-enhanced molecular beam epitaxy법을 이용하여 GaAs 기판에 성장한 InAs 양자점(quantum dots: QDs)의 광학적 특성을 PL (photoluminescence)과 time-resolved PL을 이용하여 분석하였다. 시료 온도, 여기 광의 세기, 발광 파장에 따른 InAs/GaAs QDs (QD1)과 $In_{0.15}Ga_{0.85}As$ 캡층을 성장한 InAs/GaAs QDs (QD2)의 발광특성을 연구하였다. QD2의 PL 피크는 QD1의 PL 피크보다 장파장에서 나타났으며, 이것은 InGaAs 캡층의 In이 InAs 양자점으로 확산되어 양자점의 크기가 증가한 것으로 설명된다. 10 K에서 측정한 QD1과 QD2의 PL 피크인 1,117 nm와 1,197 nm에서 PL 소멸시간은 각각 1.12 ns와 1.00 ns이고, 발광파장에 따른 PL 소멸시간은 PL 피크 근처에서 거의 일정하게 나타났다. QD2의 PL 소멸시간이 QD1보다 짧은 것은 QD2의 양자점이 커서 파동함수 중첩이 향상되어 캐리어 재결합이 증가한 때문으로 설명된다.
