Among various types of photo-electric energy conversion element which can transfer solar energy into electric energy through the photo voltaic effect, Si solar cells were investigated on photoelectric characteristics, improvements of its efficiency and economical evaluation for its production cost. To study the above subjects, we decided best conditions on fabricating of thin film Si solar cell by epitaxial growth and knew that the thin solar cell by epitaxial growth was more efficient than that by diffusion process. And also higher photo voltaic output was obtained as a effect of SiO as antireflection coating by several methods, i.e. vacuum evaporating techniques of electrode to decrease the contact resistance and to form best ohmic contact, and concentration techniques of sun's ray by lenz or both-sided illumination through special structure for reflection using mirrors.

The sapphire orientation dependence of the crystallization of ZnO thin films has been studied using real-time synchrotron x-ray scattering. The amorphous ZnO thin films with a 2400-${\AA}$-thick were grown on sapphire(110) and sapphire(001) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The amorphous ZnO films were crystallization into epitaxial ZnO(002) grains both on the sapphire(110) and on the sapphire(001) substrates. The epitaxial quality, such as mosaic distribution and crystal domain size, of the ZnO grains on the sapphire(110) is high, similar to that of the ZnO grains on the sapphire(001). With increasing the annealing temperature to 600$^{\circ}C$, the mosaic distribution and the crystal domain size of ZnO(002) grains in the film normal direction was improved and decreased, respectively.

In order to increase perpendicular magnetic anisotropy of magnetic layer and prepare magnetic recording layer with a good quality by epitaxial growth between magnetic layer and, we prepared Co$\_$77/Cr$\_$20/Ta$_3$/Si doublelayer for perpendicular magnetic recording media which was promoted as next generation recording media on slide glass substrate. The thickness of magnetic layer and Underlayer were varied from 20 to 100 nm and 5 to 100 m, respectively. The surface morphology and crystal structure of the CoCrTa/Si film were examined with XRD and AFM. Prepared thin films showed improvement of dispersion angle of c-axis orientation Δ$\theta$$\_$50/ caused by inserting amorphous Si underlayer.

The crystallization of amorphous Ba-ferrite/sapphire(001) thin films was studied in real-time synchrotron x-ray scattering experiments. In the sputter-grown amorphous films, we found the existence of epitaxial $Fe_3O_4$ interfacial crystallites (50-${\AA}$-thick), well aligned $[0.03^circ$full-width at half-maximum (FWHM)] to the sapphire [001] direction. The amorphous precursor was crystallized to epitaxial Ba-ferrite and \alpha-Fe_2O_3$grains in two steps; i) the nucleation of crystalline \alpha-Fe_2O_3$ phase started at $300^circ{C}$ together with the transformation of the $Fe_3O_4$ crystallites to the \alpha-Fe_2O_3$ crystallites, ii) the nucleation of Ba-ferrite phase occurred at temperature above $600^circ{C}$. In the crystallized films irrespective of the film thickness, the crystal domain size of the \alpha-Fe_2O_3$grains was about 250 ${\AA}$ in the film plane, similar to that of the Ba-ferrite grains.

Epitaxial ($11{\bar{2}}0$) a-plane GaN films were grown on a ($1{\bar{1}}02$) R-plane sapphire substrate with photoresist (PR) masks using metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). The PR mask with striped patterns was prepared using an ex-situ lithography process, whereas carbonization and heat treatment of the PR mask were carried out using an in-situ MOCVD. The heat treatment of the PR mask was continuously conducted in ambient $H_2/NH_3$ mixture gas at $1140^{\circ}C$ after carbonization by the pyrolysis in ambient $H_2$ at $1100^{\circ}C$. As the time of the heat treatment progressed, the striped patterns of the carbonized PR mask shrank. The heat treatment of the carbonized PR mask facilitated epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) of a-plane GaN films without carbon contamination on the R-plane sapphire substrate. Thhe surface morphology of a-plane GaN films was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy. The structural characteristics of a-plane GaN films on an R-plane sapphire substrate were evaluated by ${\omega}-2{\theta}$ high-resolution X-ray diffraction. The a-plane GaN films were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to determine carbon contamination from carbonized PR masks in the GaN film bulk. After $Ar^+$ ion etching, XPS spectra indicated that carbon contamination exists only in the surface region. Finally, the heat treatment of carbonized PR masks was used to grow high-quality a-plane GaN films without carbon contamination. This approach showed the promising potential of the ELO process by using a PR mask.

We studied phosphorus doping effect on the epitaxial growth of $Si_{1-x}Ge_{x}$ film with high Ge fraction on Si substates at 550.deg. C by LPCVD. In a low $Ph_{3}$ partial pressure region such as below 1.25 mPa, the phosphorus dopant concentration increased linearly with increasing $PH_{3}$ partial pressure while the deposition rate and the Ge fraction were constant. In a higher $PH_{3}$ partial pressure region, the phosphorus dopant concentration and the deposition rate decreased, while the Ge fraction slightly increased. The deposition arate and the Ge fraction increased with increasing $GeH_{4}$ partial pressure while the phophours dopant concentration decreased. But the increasing rate of Ge fraction with incrasing $PH_{3}$ partial pressure was reduced at a high $GeH_{4}$ partial pressure. According to test results, it suggests that high surface coverage of phosphorus atoms suppress both the $SiH_{4}$ adsorption/reasction and the $GeH_{4}$ adsorption/reaction on the surfaces, and the effect is more stronger on $SiH_{4}$ than on $GeH_{4}$. In a higher $PH_{3}$ partial pressure region, the epitaxial growth is largely controlled by surface coverage effect of phosphorus atoms. The phosphorus surface coverage was slimited at a high $GeH_{4}$ partial pressure because adsorbed Ge atoms effectively suppresses the adsorption of phosphorus atoms.
