  • The magnetic anisotropy energy (MAE) and the saturation magnetization $B_s$ of (110) $Fe_nCo_n$ heterostructures with n = 1, 2, and 3 are investigated in first-principles within the density functional theory by using the precise full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FLAPW) method. We compare the results employing two different exchange correlation potentials, that is, the local density approximation (LDA) and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA), and include the spin-orbit coupling interaction of the valence states in the second variational way. The MAE is found to be enhanced significantly compared to those of bulk Fe and Co and the magnetic easy axis is in-plane in agreement with experiment. Also the MAE exhibits the in-plane angle dependence with a two-fold anisotropy showing that the $[1{\overline{I}}0]$ direction is the most favored spin direction. We found that as the periodicity increases, (i) the saturation magnetization $B_s$ decreases due to the reduced magnetic moment of Fe far from the interface, (ii) the strength of in-plane preference of spin direction increases yielding enhancement of MAE, and (iii) the volume anisotropy coefficient decreases because the volume increase outdo the MAE enhancement.

  • We theoretically consider a possible influence of periodic oceanic tides on non-periodic changes in the dynamics of the Earth and Moon over a long time scale. A particular emphasis will be placed on the contribution from rotating tidal waves, which rotate along the inner edge of an oceanic basin surrounded by topographic boundary. We formulate the angular momentum and the mechanical energy of the rotating tidal wave in terms of celestial parameters with regard to the Earth and Moon. The obtained formula are used to discuss how the energy dissipation in the rotating tidal wave should be relevant to the secular variation in the Earth's spin rotation and the Earth-Moon distance. We also discuss the applicability of the formula to general oceanic binary planets subject to tidal coupling.

  • Three dimensional(3D) topological insulators(TIs) of Bi binary alloys are characterized by a bulk energy gap with strong spin-orbit coupling and metallic surface states protected by time-reversal symmetry. It was reported that film forms of such materials were advantageous over bulk forms due to less defect density and better crystallinity. So far, the films have been prepared on several substrates including semiconductors and graphene. But, there were no studies on metal substrates. For electronic transport experiments and device applications, it is necessary to know epitaxial relation between TIs and metal electrodes. In this study, Atomically flat films of Bi2Se3 were grown on a Au(111) metal substrate by in-situ molecular beam epitaxy. Using home-built scanning tunneling microscope, we observed hexagonal atomic structures which corresponded to the outmost selenium atomic layer of Bi2Se3. Triangular-shaped defects known as Selenium vacancy were also found.

  • 대표적 열전물질인 비스무스 텔루라이드에 자성원자를 도핑한 합금에 대한 구조 및 전자적 그리고 자기적 성질에 관한 연구는 고효율 열전물질의 개발이라는 목적뿐만 아니라 특이한 자기적 상호작용 규명 및 위상절연체 분야에서도 큰 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 연구에서는 희토류 원자로서 매우 국소화된 f 전자를 갖는 Gd이 Bi을 치환하여 도핑된 비스무스 텔루라이드 합금의 자성 안정성을 밀도범함수(Density Functional Theory)에 입각하여 제일원리적으로 연구하기 위하여 모든 전자(all-electron) FLAPW(full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave) 방법을 이용하여 전자구조 계산을 수행하였다. 전자간 교환-상관 상호작용은 일반기울기 근사법(Generalized Gradient Approximation)을 도입하여 계산하였으며, 국소화된 f 전자를 기술하는 데 필요한 Hubbard+U 보정과 스핀-궤도 각운동량 상호작용은 제2 변분법적 방법을 이용하여 고려하였다. 계산 결과, 강자성 안정성을 보이는 Gd 덩치계와 다르게 이 합금은 강자성과 반강자성의 총에너지 차이가 ~1 meV/Gd 정도의 아주 작은 값으로 얻어져서, 그 자성 안정성은 결함이나 strain 등에 의한 구조변화에 민감하게 의존하여 변할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 Gd 스핀자기모멘트는 덩치에서의 값에 비해 감소하였고, Gd에 가장 가까운 Te에 유도 자기모멘트가 형성되는 것으로 미루어 Te를 매개로 한 자성상호작용이 자성 안정성을 결정하는 데에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 예측할 수 있었다.

  • Optical properties of $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ and $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$ crystals are investigated in the visible and near-infrared regions at 298K. The direct band gap at 298K is 1.630eV for the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ and 1.567eV for the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$ crystals, respectively. In the optical absorption and PAS spectrum of the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$, we observed five impurity absorption peaks at $4220cm^{-1}$, $5952cm^{-1}$, $12422cm^{-1}$, $12987cm^{-1}$ and $14184cm^{-1}$. These impurity absorption peaks are attributed to the electronic transitions between the split energy levels of $Co^{2+}$ ions with Td symmetry of $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ host lattice. The crystal field parameter Dq, the Racah parameter B and the spin-orbit coupling parameter $\lambda$ are given by $442cm^{-1}$, $425cm^{-1}$ and $440cm^{-1}$, respectively.

  • The stoichiometric mix of evaporating materials for he CuInS₂ single crystal thin films was prepared. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CuINS₂ mixed crystal was deposited on etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 640℃ and 430℃, respectively and the thickness of the single crystal thin films was 2 ㎛. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility deduced from Hall data are 9.64x10/sup 22//㎥ and 2.95x10/sup -2/ ㎡/V·s, respectively at 293 K. he optical energy gap was found to be 1.53 eV at room temperature. From the photocurrent spectrum obtained by illuminating perpendicular light on the c-axis of the thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling splitting ΔSo and the crystal field splitting ΔCr were 0.0211 eV and 0.0045 eV at 10K, respectively. From PL peaks measured at 10K, were can assign the 807.7 nm (1.5350 eV) peak to E/sub x/ peak of the free exciton emission, the 810.3 nm(1.5301 eV) peak to I₂ peak of donar-bound exciton emission and the 815.6 nm(1.5201 eV) peak to I₁ peak of acceptor-bound excition emission. In addition, the peak observed at 862.0 nm(1.4383 eV) was analyzed to be PL peak due to donor-acceptor pair(DAP).

  • The binary chalcogenide semiconductor Bi2Se3 is at the center of intensive research on a new state of matter known as topological insulators. It has Dirac point in their band structures with robust surface states that are protected against external perturbations by strong spin-orbit coupling with broken inversion symmetry. Such unique band configurations were confirmed by recent angle-resolved photoelectron emission spectroscopy experiments with an unwanted n-type doping effect, showing a Fermi level shift of about 0.3 eV caused by atomic defects such as Se vacancies. Since the number of defects can be reduced using the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) method. We have prepared the Bi2Se3 film on noble metal Au(111) and semiconductor Si(111) substrates by MBE method. To characterize the film, we have introduced several surface sensitive techniques including x-ray photoemission electron spectroscopy (XPS) and micro Raman spectroscopy. Also, crystallinity of the film has been confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD). Using home-built scanning tunneling microscope, we observed the atomic structure of quintuple layered Bi2Se3 film on Au(111).

AgInS2 단결정 박막은 증발원과 기판의 온도를 각각 680℃, 410℃로 성장하였다. 이때 단결정 박막의 결정성이 10 K에서 측정한 광발광 스펙트럼은 597.8 nm(2.0741 eV) 근처에서 엑시톤 방출 스펙트럼이 가장 강하게 나타났으며, 또한 이중결정 X-선 요동곡선(DCRC)의 반폭치(FWHM)도 121 arcsec로 가장 작게 측정되어 최적 성장 조건임을 알 수 있었다. Hall 효과는 van der Pauw 방법에 의해 측정되었으며, 온도에 의존하는 운반자 농도와 이동도는 293 K에서 각각 9.35×1023개/㎥, 2.94×10-2㎡/V·s였다. AgInS2 단결정 박막의 광전류 단파장대 봉우리들로부터 10 K에서 측정된 ΔCr(crystal field splitting)은 0.15eV, ΔSo(spin orbit coupling)는 0.0089 eV였다. 광전도 셀로서 응용성을 알아보기 위해 감도(γ), pc/dc(photocurrent/darkcurrent), 최대허용소비전력(maximum allowable power dissipation: MAPD), 응답시간(response time)등을 측정한 결과, S 증기 분위기에 열처리한 광전도 셀의 경우 γ=0.98, pc/dc=1.02×106, MAPD=312 mW, 오름시간(rise time)=10.4 ms, 내림시간(decay time)=10.8 ms로 가장 좋은 특성을 얻었다.

  • Undoped and Co$^{2+}$-doped Zn$_{4}$GeSe$_{6}$ single crystals were grown by the Chemical Transport Reaction method using iodine as a transporting agent. The crystal structure of these compounds determined by X-ray diffraction analysis was monoclinic structure. The direct energy gaps of these compounds were measured and the temperature dependence of the optical energy gap were closely investigated over the temperature range 10-290K. The temperature dependence of the optical energy gap is well presented by the Varshni equation. Also the optical absorption peaks of Zn$_{4}$GeSe$_{6}$ :Co$^{2+}$ single crystal observed, centered at 5437, 6079, 7142, 12950, 13462, 14786 and 15735 $cm^{-1}$ /, can be explained in terms of the electronic transitions of Co$^{2+}$ ions located at Td symmetry of the host materials. According to the crystal-field theory, the crystal-field, Racah and spin-orbit coupling parameters obtained from the absorption bands are given by Dq = 361$cm^{-1}$ /, B = 655$cm^{-1}$ / and .lambda. = 284$cm^{-1}$ / respectively.ively.

  • The stochiometric mixture of evaporating materials for the $CuInTe_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuInTe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched GaAs(100) by the Hot Wall Epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $610^{\circ}C\;and\;450^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the growth rate of the single crystal thin films was about $0.5{\mu}m/h$. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). From the photocurrent spectra, we have found that values of spin orbit coupling ${\Delta}So$ and crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ ware $0.283{\underline{3}}eV\;and\;0.120{\underline{0}}eV$, respectively.
