The authors fabricated a nanopatterned surface on a GaN thin film deposited on a sapphire substrate and used that as an epitaxial wafer on which to grow an InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well structure with metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The deposited GaN epitaxial surface has a two-dimensional photonic crystal structure with a hexagonal lattice of 230 nm. The grown structure on the nano-surface shows a Raman shift of the transverse optical phonon mode to $569.5\;cm^{-1}$, which implies a compressive stress of 0.5 GPa. However, the regrown thin film without the nano-surface shows a free standing mode of $567.6\;cm^{-1}$, implying no stress. The nanohole surface better preserves the strain energy for pseudo-morphic crystal growth than does a flat plane.

We proposed the ZnO thin film for a SAW filter by PLD and RF sputtering method. ZnO thin films was pre-deposited on a sapphire substrate as a seed layer by PLD method and then deposited on seed layer by RF sputtering. The surface characteristics of ZnO thin film were investigated by XRD, SEM and AFM. The minimum surface roughness was 1.92 nm and FWHM of rocking curve was $0.92^{\circ}$. We demonstrated the SAW filter with bandwidth of approximately 0.97 MHz and the center frequency of 18.72 MHz using the proposed ZnO thin film.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between personality and color preference, thereby to suggest a personality profile on the basis of colors selected for children's preference. Materias used to determine the degree of color preference were 24 color papers which were developed and described in a previous research by Lee & Lee. The Instrument used ot determine children's personality was Burks' Behavior Rating Scales-Preschool and Kindergarten Edition. Subjects wee 70 3-, 4- and 5- year old children attending the Y Child Development research institute. Data were analyzed with SPSS using mainly F-test and Duncan's Multiple Range Test. Results showed that among 24 colors used, white, violet, sapphire, sky blue, blue, green yellow, pink, green, red, gold, purple, van dyke brown, blue, green, silver were found to be significantly related to persionality. Judging from this results, white and violet seemed to be most predictive colors to personality. Personality aspects significantly related to specific colors were discussed and a profile of personality based on color preference were developed.

The fabrication of internal diffraction gratings with photoinduced refractive index modification in transparent materials was demonstrated using low-density plasma formation excited by a femtosecond (130 fs) Ti: sapphire laser (${\lambda}_p$=800 nm). The refractive index modifications with diameters ranging from $1{\mu}m$ to $3{\mu}m$ were photoinduced after plasma formation occurred upon irradiation with peak intensities of more than $2.0{\times}10^{13}W/cm^2$. The graded refractive index profile was fabricated to be a symmetric around from the center of the point at which low-density plasma occurred.

We report the characteristics of individual ultra-long SnO2 nanowires(NWs) grown on sapphire(0001) substrates by vapor transport method. NWs, with typical lengths of >$400{\mu}m$, grew in the form of NW bundles under a hydrogen reducing atmosphere, without metal catalysts. The individual NWs were examined using high-resolution X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and micro-Raman spectroscopy. The results revealed that the SnO2 NWs grew as high-quality, tetragonal-rutile-phase single crystals with mosaic distributions of $0.02^{\circ}$ and $0.026^{\circ}$ in the (101) and (110) planes, respectively.

Tin Oxide(SnO2) has been widely investigated as a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) and can be used in optoelectronic devices such as solar cell and flat-panel displays. It would be applicable to fabricating the wide bandgap semiconductor because of its bandgap of 3.6 eV. In addition, SnO2 is commonly used as gas sensors. To fabricate high quality epitaxial SnO2 thin films, a powder sputtering method was used, in contrast to typical sputtering technique with sintered target. Single crystalline sapphire(0001) substrates were used. The samples were prepared with varying the growth parameters such as gas environment and film thickness. Then, the samples were characterized by using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and atomic force microscopy measurements. We found that the strain evolution of the samples was highly affected by gas environment and growth rate, resulted in the delamination under O2 environment.

Tin Oxide (SnO2) has been widely investigated as a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) and can be used in optoelectronic devices such as solar cell and flat-panel displays. In addition, it would be applicable to fabricating the wide bandgap semiconductor because of its bandgap of 3.6 eV. There have been concentrated on the improvement of optical properties, such as conductivity and transparency, by doping Indium Oxide and Gallium Oxide. Recently, with development of fabrication techniques, high-qulaity SnO2 epitaxial thin films have been studied and received much attention to produce the electronic devices such as sensor and light-emitting diode. In this study, powder sputtering method was employed to deposit epitaxial thin films on sapphire (0001) substrates. A commercial SnO2 powder was sputtered. The samples were prepared with varying the growth parameters such as gas environment and film thickness. Then, the samples were characterized by using XRD, SEM, AFM, and Raman spectroscopy measurements. The details of physical properties of epitaxial SnO2 thin films will be presented.

The eleventh-order coupled line lowpass filter(LPF) was designed to suppress harmonics and spurious signals. The microstrip type LPF was fabricated using a high-$T_{c}$ superconductor(HTS) $YBa_{2}$$Cu_{3}$$O_{7-x}$(YBCO) thin film with the $CeO_{2}$ buffer layer which was deposited on the sapphire ($Al_{2}O_{3}$) substrate of 30 x 30 $mm^{2}$. The coupled-line type LPF was designed for 1.2 GHz of cutoff frequency with 0.01 dB of ripple level at passband. The fabricated HTS LPF shows excellent attenuation characteristics in stopband of 1.2~9.5GHz (7-attenuation poles in the stopband), and shows low insertion loss (0.2 dB) and return loss (17.1 dB) in the pass- band. These measured results match well with those obtained by the EM simulation. This clearly demonstrates that the HTS LPF can suppress harmonics and spurious signals effectively.

Vertically aligned zinc oxide(ZnO) nanorods (NRs) with different surface morphology were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) on sapphire substrate with different deposition condition. Based on the surface morphology, ZnO nanostructures are divided into three types: nanoneedles, nanonails and nanorods with rounded tip. Variable temperature photoluminescence (PL) have employed to probe the exciton recombination in high density and vertically aligned ZnO Nanorod arrays. Low temperature photoluminescence measurements do not show any significant yellow emission, but the near band edge excitonic emission shows very strong dependence with the surface morphology. The recombination properties are expected to be different due to different surface-to-volume ratio and distribution of potential fluctuations of intrinsic defects.

Verneuil method uses oxyhydrogen flame for its heat source. This method was used to grow corundum monocrystals. Parametersof this method are feeding rate, gas pressure, lowering rate and growth axis. These parameters were examined. Crystals's qualities and shapes are affected by these parameters. Crystals having good qualities and shape were grown under the conditions that feeding rate, 0.2∼0.5g/min, lowering rate, 10∼20mm/hr ; gas pressure, 3∼4psi ; growth axis was shifted 60 degrees from c axis.
