These studies were carried out to obtain the transformant from carrot cells by using binary vector pGA472 with NPT II gene to confer kanamycin resistance in the plant cells. The binary vector pGA472 was mobilized from E. coli MC1000 into A. tumefaciens strains isolated in the Korea, C23-1. K29-1, and disarmed Ti-plasmid PC2760, and A28l using a tri-parental mating method with E. coli HB101/pRK2013. Transconjugants, C23-1/pGA472, K29-1/pGA472, PC2 760/pGA472 and A28l/pGA472 were obtaind on the minimum AB media containing tetracycline and kanamycin, were comfirmed to hold the Ti-plasmid and pGA472 binary vector on the 0.7% agarose gel. Transformed carrot calli were initiated on the MS media supplemented with l00$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml kanamycin and 250$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml carbenicillin after co-cultivation of carrot explant and transconjugant Agrobacteria. Selected callus was grown vigouousley for subculture on the medium containing 100$\mu\textrm{g}$/ml kanamycin, thus indication that the selected callus was transformed with NPT II gene.

The crack-free AlGaN template has been successfully grown by using selective area growth with triangular GaN facet. The triangular GaN stripe structure was obtained by vertical growth rate enhanced mode with low growth temperature of $950^{\circ}C$ and high growth pressure of 500 torr. The lateral growth rate enhanced mode of AlGaN for crack-free and flat surface was also investigated. Low pressure of 30 torr and high V/III ratio of 4400 were favorable for lateral growth of AlGaN. It was confirmed that the $4{\mu}m$ -thick $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}N$ was crack-free over entire 2-inch wafer. The dislocation density of $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}N$ was as low as ${\sim}7.6{\times}10^8/cm^2$ measured by cathodoluminescence. Based on the high quality AlGaN with low dislocation density, the ultraviolet laser diode epitaxy with cladding, waveguide and GaN/AlGaN multiple quantum well (MQW) was grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The stimulated emission at 349 nm with full width at half maximum of 1.8 nm from the MQW was observed through optical pumping experiment with 193 nm KrF laser. We also have fabricated the deep ridge type ultraviolet laser diode (UV-LD) with $5{\mu}m-wide$ and $700{\mu}m-long$ cavity for electrical properties. The turn on voltage was below 5 V and the resistance was ${\sim}55{\Omega}$ at applied voltage of 10 V. The amplified spontaneous emission spectrum of UV-LD was also observed from pulsed current injection.

In crystalline solar cells, the substrate itself constitutes a large portion of the fabrication cost as it is derived from semiconductor ingots grown in costly high temperature processes. Thinner wafer substrates allow some cost saving as more wafers can be sliced from a given ingot, although technological limitations in slicing or sawing of wafers off an ingot, as well as the physical strength of the sliced wafers, put a lower limit on the substrate thickness. Complementary to these economical and techno-physical points of view, a device operation point of view of the substrate thickness would be useful. With this in mind, BC-BJ Si and GaAs solar cells are compared one to one by means of the Medici device simulation, with a particular emphasis on the substrate thickness. Under ideal conditions of 0.6 ${\mu}m$ photons entering the 10 ${\mu}m$-wide BC-BJ solar cells at the normal incident angle (${\theta}=90^{\circ}$), GaAs is about 2.3 times more efficient than Si in terms of peak cell power output: 42.3 $mW{\cdot}cm^{-2}$ vs. 18.2 $mW{\cdot}cm^{-2}$. This strong performance of GaAs, though only under ideal conditions, gives a strong indication that this material could stand competitively against Si, despite its known high material and process costs. Within the limitation of the minority carrier recombination lifetime value of $5{\times}10^{-5}$ sec used in the device simulation, the solar cell power is known to be only weakly dependent on the substrate thickness, particularly under about 100 ${\mu}m$, for both Si and GaAs. Though the optimum substrate thickness is about 100 ${\mu}m$ or less, the reduction in the power output is less than 10% from the peak values even when the substrate thickness is increased to 190 ${\mu}m$. Thus, for crystalline Si and GaAs with a relatively long recombination lifetime, extra efforts to be spent on thinning the substrate should be weighed against the expected actual gain in the solar cell output power.

Pt/AlGaN Schottky-type UV photodetectors were designed and fabricated. A low-temperature AlGaN interlayer buffer was grown between the AlGaN and GaN film in the diode structure epitaxy to obtain crack-free AlGaN active layers. A comparison was then made of the structural, electrical, and optical characteristics of two different diodes: one with an AlGaN($0.5\;{\mu}m$)/n+-GaN(2 nm) structure (type 1) and the other with an AlGaN($0.5\;{\mu}m$)/AlGaN interlayer($150\;{\AA}$)/n+-GaN($3\;{\mu}m$) structure(type 2). A crack-free AlGaN film was obtained by the insertion of a low-temperature AlGaN interlayer with an aluminum mole fraction of 26% into the $Al_xGa_{1-x}N$ layer. The fabricated Pt/$Al_{0.33}Ga_{0.67}N$ photodetector had a leakage current of 1 nA for the type 1 diode and $0.1\;{\mu}A$ for the type 2 diode at a reverse bias of -5 V. For the photoresponse measurement, the type 2 diode exhibited a cut-off wavelength of 300 nm, prominent responsivity of 0.15 A/W at 280 nm, and UV-visible extinction ratio of $1.5{\times}10^4$. Accordingly, the Pt/$Al_{0.33}Ga_{0.67}N$ Schottky-type ultraviolet photodetector with an AlGaN interlayer exhibited superior electrical and optical characteristics and improved UV detecting properties.

The device reliability in amorphous InGaZnO under NBS(Negative Bias Stress) and hot carrier stress with different gate overlap has been characterized. Amorphous InGaZnO thin film transistor has been measured. and is channel $width=104{\mu}m$, $length=10{\mu}m$ with gate overlap $length=0,1,2,3{\mu}m$. The device reliability has been analyzed by I-V characteristics. From the experiment results, threshold voltage variation has been increased with increasing of the gate overlap length after hot carrier stress. Also, threshold voltage variation has been decreased and Hump Effect has been observed later with increasing of the gate overlap length after NBS.

GaN micro-crystals were synthesized through the direct reaction of $NH_3$with a Ga-melt. The bubbling technique in the atmospheric $NH_3$ ambient was employed and dark-gray-colored GaN micro-crystals with various sizes ranging from 0.5~30$\mu \textrm{m}$ were obtained. It was confirmed that product yield increased with increasing reaction temperature. The synthesized GaN micro-crystals were characterized by using a particle size analyzer, SEM, XRD and PL. The variation of reaction temperature from $850^{\circ}C$ to $1150^{\circ}C$ result in morphological change and in optical characteristics of GaN micro-crystals. Especially; GaN micro-crystals synthesized at 10sec showed the highest crystallinity and low yellow band luminescence.

펄스 직류 $BCl_3$ 플라즈마의 전기적 특성과 GaAs의 건식식각을 연구하였다. 공정변수는 펄스 직류 전압 (350~550 V), 펄스 직류 주파수 (100~250 kHz), 리버스 시간 (0.4~1.2 ${\mu}s$)이었다. 전기적 특성은 오실로스코프를 이용하여 분석하였다. 펄스 직류 전원의 경우 평균 전압이 일정하더라도 주파수가 커지거나 리버스 시간이 커지면 peak-to-peak 전압이 증가한다는 사실을 이해하였다. GaAs 식각 실험 후 샘플의 식각률, 식각 선택비, 표면 형상을 비교, 분석하였다. GaAs의 식각 결과는 식각 속도, 식각 선택비, 표면 형상, 잔류 물질 분석을 실시하엿다. 본 실험에서는 1대의 기계적 펌프만을 상ㅇ하여 진공 압력을 유지하였다. GaAs의 식각 속도는 10 sccm $BCl_3$를 사용한 경우 최대 0.4 ${\mu}m$까지 얻을 수 있었다. 감광제에 대한 최대 식각 선택비는 약 2.5 : 1이었다. BCl₃ 플라즈마의 경우 75 mTorr의 저진공 조건에서는 500 V, 250 kHz, 0.7 ${\mu}s$의 실험에서 가장 좋은 식각 특성을 얻을 수 있엇다. X-레이 광전 분석기 데이터에 의하면, 식각된 GaAs의 표면을 깨끗하였으며, 염소와 관련된 잔류 물질은 거의 발견되지 않았다.

AlGaAs/GaAs quantum well delta-doped channel FET's have been successfully fabricated using by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(LP-MOCVD). The FET's with a gate dimension of 1.8$\mu$m $\times$ 100$\mu$m have a maximum transconductance of 190 mS/mm and a maximum current density of 425 mA/nm. The devices show extremely broad transconductances with a large voltage swing of 2.4V. The S-parameter measurements have indicated that the current gain and power gain cutoff frequencies of the device were 7 and 15 GHz, respectively. These values are among the best performance reported for GaAs based heterojunction FET's with a similar device geometry.
