일반적으로 청색 및 자외선 발광다이오드, 레이저 다이오드, UV 감지기 (detector)소자 등의 기술적인 중요성은 ZnO를 기반으로 하는 산화물 반도체와 함께 와이드 밴드갭 반도체 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. ZnO의 경우 밴드갭 엔지니어링을 위해 일반적으로 Cd과 Mg을 사용하고 있으며 특히, ZnO에 Mg을 첨가하여 MgZnO 화합물을 첨가할 경우 밴드갭을 3.3eV~7.8eV까지 증가 시킬 수 있고, MgZnO/ZnO 초격자 구조를 이용할 경우 자유 엑시톤 결합에너지를 100meV 이상까지 증가시킬 수 있는 장점을 가지고 있다. 그러나 MgO는 결정구조가 rocksalt 구조를 가지는 입방정 구조이기 때문에 Hexagonal 구조를 가진 ZnO에 첨가될 경우 고용도에 큰 제한을 가지게 된다. 이와 같은 문제점으로 인하여 밴드갭 엔지니어링 기술은 여전히 해결되지 않은 문제점으로 남아 있다. 본 실험에서는 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 사파이어 기판위에 MgZnO/ZnO 박막을 co-sputtering 시켰다. Targer은 ZnO(99.999%) 와 MgO (99.999%) target을 사용하였고, 스퍼터링 가스는 아르곤과 산소가스를 2:1 비율로 혼합시켜 성장하였다. MgZnO 박막을 성장하기 전 ZnO 층을 ~500 두께로 성장 시켰다. RF-power는 ZnO target을 고정 시키고, MgO targe power를 변화시켜 Mg 농도를 조절 하였다. 실험 결과 MgO target power 가 증가 할수록 반치폭이 증가하고, c-plane을 따라 격자 상수가 감소하는 것을 확인 할 수 있고, UV emission peak intensity가 감소며 단파장쪽으로 blue shift 하고, activation energy 가 증가하는 것을 관찰 할 수 있었다.

적층형 chip inductor 소재인 NiCuZn ferrite의 제조 공정 조건 및 조성을 선정하였다. NiCuZn ferrite의 NiO 함량이 증가할 수록 저온 소결에 필요한 Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$ 결핍량은 점차 증가하였고, NiO 함량과 Co$_{3}$O$_{4}$ 첨가량을 변화하여 투자율을 12 ~ 562 범위에서 제어할 수 있었다. NiCuZn ferrite의 투자율이 562에서 60으로 변화함에 따라서 Q$_{max}$ 주파수는 3 MHz에서 50 MHz 범위로 제어할 수 있었다. 이때 Q$_{max}$ 주파수(Y)와 투자율(X)은 log Y = 4.2-1.4 log X의 상관관계를 나타내었다.

In the present research, a simple electrochemical sensor based on a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with ZnO-Zn₂SnO₄-SnO₂ and graphene (ZnO-Zn₂SnO₄-SnO₂/Gr/CPE) was developed for the direct, simultaneous and individual electrochemical measurement of Acetaminophen (AC), Caffeine (Caf) and Ascorbic acid (AA). The synthesized nano-materials were investigated using scanning electron microscopy, X-ray Diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques. Cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry were applied for electrochemical investigation ZnO-Zn₂SnO₄-SnO₂/Gr/CPE, and the impact of scan rate and the concentration of H⁺ on the electrode's responses were investigated. The voltammograms showed a linear relationship between the response of the electrode for individual oxidation of AA, AC and, Caf in the range of 0.021-120, 0.018-85.3, and 0.02-97.51 μM with the detection limit of 8.94, 6.66 and 7.09 nM (S/N = 3), respectively. Also, the amperometric technique was applied for the measuring of the target molecules in the range of 0.013-16, 0.008-12 and, 0.01-14 μM for AA, AC and, Caf with the detection limit of 6.28, 3.64 and 3.85 nM, respectively. Besides, the ZnO-Zn₂SnO₄-SnO₂/Gr/CPE shows an excellent selectivity, stability, repeatability, and reproducibility for the determination of AA, AC and, Caf. Finally, the proposed sensor was successfully used to show the amount of AA, AC and, Caf in urine, blood serum samples with recoveries ranging between 95.8% and 104.06%.

Ba-Zn ferrite powders for electromagnetic insulator were synthesized by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis(SHS) with a reaction of $xBaO_2+(1-x)ZnO+0.5Fe_2O_3+Fe{\rightarrow}Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. In this study, phase indentification of SHS products was carried out by using x-ray diffractometry and quasi-nano sized Ba-Zn powders were prepared by a pulverizing process. SHS mechanism was studied by thermodynamical analysis about oxidation reaction among $BaO_2,\;ZnO,\;Fe_2O_3$, and Fe. As oxygen pressure increases from 0.25 MPa to 1.0 MPa, the SHS reactions occur well and make clearly the SHS products. X-ray analysis shows that final SHS products formed with the ratio of $BaO_2/ZnO$ of 0.25, 1.0 and 4.0, are mainly $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. Based on thermodynamical evaluation, the heat of formation increases in the order of $ZnFe_2O_4,\;BaFe_2O_4$, and $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. This supports that $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ phase is predominately formed during SHS reaction. The SHS reactions to form $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ depends on oxygen partial pressure, and the heat of formation during the SHS reaction. The SHS reactions tends to occur well with increasing the oxygen partial pressure and BaO2/ZnO ratio in the reactants This means that the SHS reaction for the formation of Ba-Zn ferrite includes the reduction of BaO2/ZnO and the oxidation of Fe. $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ powders after pulverizing is agglomeratedwith a size of about $50{\mu}m$, in which quasi-nano sized particles with about 300nm are present.

To investigate the electrical properties of the ZnO films which are interested in the next generation of short wavelength LEDs and Lasers, our ZnO thin films were deposited by RF sputtering system. At sputtering process of ZnO thin films, substrate temperature, work pressure respectively is $300^{\circ}C$ and 5.2 mTorr, and the purity of target is ZnO 5N. The thickness of ZnO thin films was about $2.1\;{\mu}m$ at SEM analysis after sputtering process. Phosphorus (P) and arsenic (As) were diffused into the undoped ZnO thin films sputtered by RF magnetron sputtering system in ampoule tube which was below $5\times10^{-7}$ Torr. The dopant sources of phosphorus and arsenic were $Zn_3P_2$ and $ZnAs_2$. Those diffusion was perform at 500, 600, and $700^{\circ}C$ during 3 hr. We found the diffusion condition of the conductive ZnO films which had n- and p-type properties. Our ZnO thin film has not only very high carrier concentration of above $10^{17}/cm^3$ but also low resistivity of below $2.0\times10^{-2}\;{\Omega}cm$.

Effects of 1.0 mol% CoO addition on sintering and the electrical properties of ZnO-Bi2O3-Sb2O3(ZBS) varistor system with 3.0 mol% co-addition of Sb2O3 and Bi2O3 at various Sb/Bi ratio (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0) were investigated. Cobalt had little influence on the liquid-phase formation and the pyrochlore decomposition temepratures of ZBS, while densification was mainly dependent on Sb/Bi ratio: when Sb/Bi=0.5, excess Bi2O3 irrelevant to the formation of pyrochore(Zn2Sb3Bi3O14) forms eutectic liquid at ~75$0^{\circ}C$ which promotes densification and grain growth; with Sb/Bi=2.0, the second phase Zn7Sb2O12 formed by excess Sb2O3 irrelevant to the formation of the pyrochlore retards densification up to ~100$0^{\circ}C$. These phases caused the coarsening and uneven distribution of the second phase particles on the grain boundaries of ZnO above the pyrochlore decomposition temperature(~105$0^{\circ}C$), which led to broad size dist-ribution of ZnO; the specimen with Sb/Bi=1.0 showed homogeneous microstructure compared with the others, which enabled improved varistor characteristics. Doping of Co increased the nonlinearity and the potential barrier height of ZBS, which is thought to stem from improved sintering behavior such as homogenized microstructure due to size reduction and even distribution of the second phase and suppressed volatility of Bi2O3, as well as the improvement in the potential barrier structure via increased donor and interface electron trap densities.

The electrical properties of ZnO nanowire field effect transistors (FETs) have been investigated depending on various diameters of nanowires. The ZnO nanowires were synthesized with an Au catalyst on c-plane $Al_2O_3$ substrates using hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD). The nanowire FETs are fabricated by conventional photo-lithography. The diameter of ZnO nanowires is simply controlled by changing the thickness of the Au catalyst metal, which is confirmed by FE-SEM. It has been clearly observed that the ZnO nanowires showed different diameters simply depending on the thickness of the Au catalyst. As the diameter of ZnO nanowires increased, the threshold voltage of ZnO nanowires shifted to the negative direction systematically. The results are attributed to the difference of conductive layer in the nanowires with different diameters of nanowires, which is simply controlled by changing the catalyst thickness. The results show the possibility for the simple method of the fabrication of nanowire logic circuits using enhanced and depleted mode.
