Solution-processed metal-alloy oxides such as indium zinc oxide (IZO), indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO) has been extensively researched due to their high electron mobility, environmental stability, optical transparency, and solution-processibility. In spite of their excellent material properties, however, there remains a challenging problem for utilizing IZO or IGZO in electronic devices: the supply shortage of indium (In). The cost of indium is high, what is more, indium is becoming more expensive and scarce and thus strategically important. Therefore, developing an alternative route to improve carrier mobility of solution-processable ZnO is critical and essential. Here, we introduce a simple route to achieve high-performance and low-temperature solution-processed ZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) by employing alkali-metal doping such as Li, Na, K or Rb. Li-doped ZnO TFTs exhibited excellent device performance with a field-effect mobility of $7.3cm^2{\cdot}V-1{\cdot}s-1$ and an on/off current ratio of more than 107. Also, in case of higher drain voltage operation (VD=60V), the field effect mobility increased up to $11.45cm^2{\cdot}V-1{\cdot}s-1$. These all alkali metal doped ZnO TFTs were fabricated at maximum process temperature as low as $300^{\circ}C$. Moreover, low-voltage operating ZnO TFTs was fabricated with the ion gel gate dielectrics. The ultra high capacitance of the ion gel gate dielectrics allowed high on-current operation at low voltage. These devices also showed excellent operational stability.

니켈 함량이 높은 리튬이차전지용 NCA 양극소재의 용량 및 수명특성을 향상시키기 위하여 붕소와 코발트를 상업용 $Li_{1.06}Ni_{0.91}Co_{0.08}Al_{0.01}O_2$ (NCA)에 도핑하여 리튬이차전지의 양극소재로 사용하였다. 상업용 NCA 양극소재는 약 $5{\mu}m$와 $12{\mu}m$ 크기의 2차 입자들이 혼합되어 있고 붕소와 코발트 도핑후 입자크기는 조금 감소되었다. 붕소와 코발트를 도핑한 NCA-B와 NCA-Co의 초기 방전용량은 각각 214 mAh/g과 200 mAh/g으로 도핑하지 않은 NCA에 비해 높게 나타났으며, 특히 NCA-Co는 20번째의 방전용량이 157 mAh/g으로 가장 우수한 방전용량특성을 나타내었다. 이는 코발트를 도핑함으로써 c축 방향으로의 결정이 성장되어 리튬이온의 확산이 용이하기 때문이다.

BiFeO₃ with perovskite structure is a well-known material that has both ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic properties called multiferroics. However, leaky electrical properties and difficulty of controlling stoichiometry due to Bi volatility and difficulty of obtaining high relative density due to high dependency on the ceramic process are issues for BiFeO₃ applications. In this work we investigated the sintering behavior of samples with different stoichiometries and sintering conditions. To understand the optimum sintering conditions, nonstoichiometric Bi_1±xFeO_3±δ ceramics and Ti-doped Bi_1.03Fe_1-4x/3Ti_xO₃ ceramics were synthesized by a conventional solid-state route. Dense single phase BiFeO₃ ceramics were successfully fabricated using a two-step sintering and quenching process. The effects of Bi volatility on microstructure were determined by Bi-excess and Ti doping. Bi-excess increased grain size, and Ti doping increased sintering temperature and decreased grain size. It should be noted that Ti-doping suppressed Bi volatility and stabilized the BiFeO₃ phase.

The device with $500{\AA}$-SFC137 showed the luminance of $48,300\;cd/m^2$ at an applied voltage of 10 V, and a maximum current efficiency of 57 cd/A under a luminance of $230\;cd/m^2$. The peak wavelength in the electroluminescent spectral and color coordinates on the Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage [CIE] chart were 512 nm and (0.31, 0.62), respectively.

수소 생산을 위한 물 분해 시스템의 효율성을 높이려면 산소 발생 반응(OER, Oxygen Evolution Reaction)에서 촉매로 인해 발생하는 전기화학 반응의 높은 과전압을 감소시켜야 한다. 그중 전이금속을 포함하는 LDH(Layered Double Hydroxide)와 같은 화합물은 현재 사용되고 있는 백금 등의 귀금속을 대체할 수 있는 촉매 소재로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 저렴한 금속 다공성 물질인 니켈 폼을 지지체로 사용하였고, 수열합성 공정을 통해 NiCo LDH 나노결정을 합성하였다. 또한, OER 특성을 향상시키기 위해 Mo를 도핑하여 합성한 Mo 도핑된 NiCo LDH 나노결정 시료의 형태, 결정구조, 물분해 특성의 변화를 관찰하였다.

졸-겔 공정을 이용하여 유리기판 위에 Al-doped ZnO(AZO) 박막을 제조하였고, AZO 박막의 특성에 대하여 Al 전구체 종류 및 post-annealing 온도가 미치는 영향에 대하여 고찰하였다. AZO 박막 제조용 졸은 zinc acetate, EtOH, MEA 등을 사용하여 제조하였고, Al doping 을 위한 전구체로는 aluminum nitrate 와 aluminum chloride 를 사용하였다. Sol 내의 Zn 농도는 0.5 mol/l 로 하였고, Al doping 양은 Zn 대비 1 at%로 고정하였다. 유리기판 위에 졸을 spin-coating 한 후 $550^{\circ}C$에서 2 시간 동안 열처리한 후, $N_2$와 $H_2$의 비가 9 : 1인 환원 분위기 내에서 $300^{\circ}C,\;400^{\circ}C,\;500^{\circ}C$인 온도에서 2시간 동안 post-annealing을 진행하였다. 제조된 AZO 박막의 구조적, 전기적, 광학적 특성은 XRD, FE-SEM, AFM, Hall effect measurement system 및 UV-Visible spectroscopy를 이용하여 분석하였다. Al 전구체로서 aluminum nitrate 를 사용한 경우가 aluminum chloride 를 사용하여 제조한 AZO 박막보다 우수한 광학적, 전기적 특성을 나타내었으며, post-annealing 온도가 증가함에 따라 비저항과 투과율은 감소하였다. $500^{\circ}C$에서 post-annealing한 AZO 박막의 전기비저항 값은 $2{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$이었고, 투과율은 $300^{\circ}C$에서 91%로 가장 높게 나타났다.

Transparent conductive oxides (TCOs) play an important role in thin-film solar cells in terms of low cost and performance improvement. Al-doped ZnO (AZO) is a very promising material for thin-film solar cellfabrication because of the wide availability of its constituent raw materials and its low cost. In this study, AZO films were prepared by low pressurechemical vapor deposition (LPCVD) using trimethylaluminum (TMA), diethylzinc(DEZ), and water vapor. In order to improve the absorbance of light, atypical surface texturing method is wet etching of front electrode using chemical solution. Alternatively, LPCVD can create a rough surface during deposition. This "self-texturing" is a very useful technique, which can eliminate additional chemical texturing process. The introduction of a TMA doping source has a strong influence on resistivity and the diffusion of light in a wide wavelength range.The haze factor of AZO up to a value of 43 % at 600 nm was achieved without an additional surface texturing process by simple TMA doping. The use of AZO TCO resulted in energy conversion efficiencies of 7.7 % when it was applied to thep-i-n a-Si:H thin film solar cell, which was comparable to commercially available fluorine doped tin oxide ($SnO_2$:F).

The effect of Ta substitution on the crystal structure, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric properties of $Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.82}K_{0.18})_{0.5}Ti_{1-x}Ta_xO_3$ ceramics has been investigated. The Ta doping resulted in a transition from coexistence of ferroelectric tetragonal and rhombohedral phases to an electrostrictive pseudocubic phase, leading to degradations of the remnant polarization, coercive field, and piezoelectric coefficient $d_{33}$. However, the electricfield-induced strain was significantly enhanced by the Ta substitution-induced phase transition and reached a highest value of $S_{max}/E_{max}$ = 566 pm/V under an applied electric field 6 kV/mm when 2% Ta was substituted on Ti sites. The abnormal enhancement in strain was attributed to the pseudocubic phase with high electrostrictive constants.

Silicene is a two-dimensional (2D) derivative of silicon (Si) arranged in honeycomb lattice. It is predicted to be compatible with the present fabrication technology. However, its gapless properties (neglecting the spin-orbiting effect) hinders its application as digital switching devices. Thus, a suitable band gap engineering technique is required. In the present work, the band structure and density of states of uniformly doped silicene are obtained using the nearest neighbour tight-binding (NNTB) model. The results show that uniform substitutional doping using aluminium (Al) has successfully induced band gap in silicene. The band structures of the presented model are in good agreement with published results in terms of the valence band and conduction band. The band gap values extracted from the presented models are 0.39 eV and 0.78 eV for uniformly doped silicene with Al at the doping concentration of 12.5% and 25% respectively. The results show that the engineered band gap values are within the range for electronic switching applications. The conclusions of this study envisage that the uniformly doped silicene with Al can be further explored and applied in the future nanoelectronic devices.
