GaN films were prepared on Si(111) substrates by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) on HCl-NH$_3$-N$_2$gas system. Effects of HCl gas flow rate on the film investigate under deposition conditions of flow time of 10min, 20min, 30min. The deposition rate increased with increasing HCl gas flow rate in the range of 10cc/min to 40cc/min and deposition time. Strung (00.2) oriented GaN film was obtained at a lower HCl flow rate and improved of the surface morphology.

The characteristics of 3 inch wafer scale GaAs epitaxial wafer grown by molecular beam epitaxy for LSI process application were studied. The thickness and doping uniformity are characterized and discussed. The growth temperature and growth rate were $600^{\circ}C$ by pyrometer, and 1 $\mu$m/h, respectively. It was found that thickness and doping uniformity were 3.97% and 4.74% respectively across the full 3 inch diameter GaAs epitaxial layer. Also, ungated MESFETs have been fabricated and saturation current measurement showed 4.5% uniformity on 3 inch, epitaxial layer, but uniformity of threshold voltage increase up to 9.2% after recess process for MESFET device.

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.

Some effects of Al/N ratio on microstructure of AlN films grown on Si(111) substrates by PAMBE were investigated. Al/N ratio was controlled by rf power of N$_2$ plasma source system. Al excess or N excess conditions were obtained below or above 350 W rf power, respectively. Surface roughness and morphology of AlN film grown at Al/N=1.0 showed the best result. Under Al excess condition, it was suggested that excess Al atoms which did not contribute to the growth of AlN film prevent the normal crystal growth and make abnormal growth of some columns. However, under N excess condition, it was explained that some of the excess active N source turned into gas state and then desorbed out from substrate.

Recently ZnO epitaxial layers have been widely studied as a semiconductor material for optoelectronic devices. Sapphire and silicon are commonly selected as substrate materials for ZnO epitaxial growth. In this communication, we report the effect of the ECR plasma pretreatment of sapphire and silicon substrates on the nucleation in the ZnO ALE (atomic layer epitaxy). It was found that ECR plasma pretreatment reduces the incubation period of the ZnO nucleation. Oxygen ECR plasma enhances ZnO nucleation most effectively since it increases the hydroxyl group density at the substrate surface. The nucleation enhancing effect of the oxygen ECR plasma treatment is stronger on the sapphire substrate than on the silicon substrate since the saturation density of the hydroxyl group is lower at the sapphire surface than that at the silicon surface.

Several applications of radio-frequency (RF) thermal plasma to film formation are reviewed. Three types of injection plasma processing (IPP) technique are first introduced for the deposition of materials. Those are thermal plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD), plasma flash evaporation, and plasma spraying. Radio-frequency (RF) plasma and hybrid (combination of RF and direct current(DC)) plasma are next introduced as promising thermal plasma sources in the IPP technique. Experimental data for three kinds of processing are demonstrated mainly based on our recent researches of depositions of functional materials, such as high temperature semiconductor SiC and diamond, ionic conductor $ZrO_2-Y_2O_3$ and high critical temperature superconductor $YBa_2Cu_3O_7-x$. Special emphasis is given to thermal plasma flash evaporation, in which nanometer-scaled clusters generated in plasma flame play important roles as nanometer-scaled clusters as deposition species. A novel epitaxial growth mechanism from the "hot" clusters namely "hot cluster epitaxy (HCE)" is proposed.)" is proposed.osed.

The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the $ZnGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films were prepared from horizental furnace. To obtains the single crystal thin films, $ZnGa_2Se_4$ mixed crystal were deposited on throughly etched Si(100) by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The temperates of the source and the substrate were $590^{\circ}C$ and $450^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). Hall effect on this sample was measured by the method of van der Pauw and studied on carrier density and mobility dependence on temperature.

In this study temperature distribution and gas flow inside a planetary type reactor in which a number of satellites on a spinning susceptor were rotating were analyzed using numerical simulation. Effects of flow rates on gas flow and temperature distribution were investigated in order to obtain design parameters. The commercial computational fluid dynamics software CFD-ACE+ was used in this study. The multiple-frame-of-reference was used to solve continuity, momentum and energy conservation equations which governed the transport phenomena inside the reactor. Kinetic theory was used to describe the physical properties of gas mixture. Effects of the rotation speed of the satellites was clearly seen when the inlet flow rate was small. Thickness of the boundary layer affected by the satellites rotation became very thin as the flow rate increased. The temperature field was little affected by the incoming flow rate of precursors.

본 논문은 테라헤르츠 소스로 저온 InGaAs를 대체하기 위한 저온 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 실리콘(Si) 도핑 농도에 따른 광학적 특성 변화를 photoluminescence (PL)과 time-resolved PL (TRPL) 측정을 이용하여 분석하였다. $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$ 시료는 분자선 엑피탁시 (molecular beam epitaxy)법으로 GaAs 기판 위에 약 $420^{\circ}C$에서 $3.7\;{\mu}m$ 두께 성장하였다. Si은 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$ 시료에서 도핑 농도가 낮을 때는 어셉터(acceptor)로 작용하다가 도핑 농도가 증가함에 따라 도너(donor)로 작용하였다. 본 연구에 사용한 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$ 시료의 Si 도핑 농도는 $4.5{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ (n형), $4{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ (n형), $8{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-3}$ (n형), $1{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-3}$ (p형), $4{\times}10^{14}\;cm^{-3}$ (p형)인 다섯 개의 시료를 사용하였다. Si 도핑한 시료의 PL 피크는 undoped 시료보다 약 100-200 nm 단파장에서 나타나고 PL 세기도 크게 증가하였다. 그러나 Si 도핑 농도가 가장 낮은 n형과 p형 시료의 PL 피크가 가장 짧은 파장 (높은 에너지)에 나타나고 도핑 농도가 증가함에 따라 장파장으로 이동함을 보였다. n형 시료의 도핑 농도가 $8{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-3}$에서 $4.5{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$로 증가하였을 때 PL 피크는 1232 nm에서 1288 nm까지 장파장쪽으로 이동하였으며, p형 시료는 도핑 농도가 $4{\times}10^{14}\;cm^{-3}$에서 $1{\times}10^{15}\;cm^{-3}$로 증가하였을 때 PL 피크가 1248 nm에서 1314 nm로 이동함을 보였다. 또한 시료 온도에 따른 PL 결과는 온도가 증가함에 따라 PL 피크는 장파장으로 이동하면서 PL 세기는 급격하게 감소하고 약 100 - 150 K에서 소멸하였다. 그러나 ~1500 nm 이상 장파장 영역에 매우 넓은 새로운 피크가 나타났으며 온도가 증가함에 따라 PL 세기가 증가함을 확인하였다. Si 도핑 농도에 따른 운반자 수명시간 변화를 TRPL을 이용하여 측정하였다. 운반자 수명시간은 double exponential function을 이용하여 얻었다. Si 도핑 시료의 운반자 수명시간이 undoped 시료에 비해 매우 길게 나타났으며, Si 도핑 시료에서는 p형 시료들보다 n형 시료들의 운반자 수명시간이 길게 나타났다. PL 방출파장에 따른 운반자 수명시간은 Si 도핑 농도에 따라 다르게 나타났다. 이러한 PL과 TRPL 결과로부터 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 발광 특성 및 운반자 동역학은 Si 도핑에 크게 영향을 받는다는 것을 확인하였다.

The redistribution behavior of boron during Co silicidation annealing in the Co/metal/Si system was investigated using SIMS. Ti, Nb and Hf films were used as epitaxy promoting metal layers. After annealing treatment the boron peak height was about 1 order lowered in Co/Ti/Si and Co/Nb/Si systems but the relative peak position from the surface did not change. The distribution of boron was very similar to those of Ti and Nb, because of the strong affinities of boron with them. Also, the position of the main boron peak in the Co/Hf/Si system was almost the same as that of Hf, but the distribution feature of the Co/Hf/Si system somewhat differed from those of Co/Ti/Si and Co/Nb/Si systems. This implies that the affinity between B and Hf is weaker than those of B-Ti and B-Nb. Boron tends to be depleted at the silicidelsi interface while it tends to be piled-up at the Co-metal/Co silicide interface during silicidation annealing.
