In this study, the heteroepitaxial thin film growth of β-Ga₂O₃ was studied according to the position of the susceptor in mist-CVD. The position of the susceptor and substrate was moved step by step from the center of the hot zone to the inlet of mist in the range of 0~50 mm. It was confirmed that the average thickness increased to 292 nm (D1), 521 nm (D2), and 580 nm (D3) as the position of the susceptor moved away from the center of the hot zone region. The thickness of the lower region of the substrate is increased compared to the upper region. The surface roughness of the lower region of the substrate also increased because the nucleation density increased due to the increase in the lifetime of the mist droplets and the increased mist density. Therefore, thin film growth of β-Ga₂O₃ in mist-CVD is performed by appropriately adjusting the position of the susceptor (or substrate) in consideration of the mist velocity, evaporation amount, and temperature difference with the substrate, thereby determining the crystallinity of the thin film, the thickness distribution, and the thickness of the thin film. Therefore, these results can provide insights for optimizing the mist-CVD process and producing high-quality β-Ga₂O₃ thin films for various optical and electronic applications.

ZnO thn films are grown on five kinds of oxide substrates including $c-Al_2O_3(0001),\;r-Al_2O_3(01-12)$, MgO(100), MgO(111), $NdGaO_3(110)$ by rf magnetron sputtering and effects substrate types on properties of ZnO thin films ate investigated. In order to compare the substrate effects one growth condition is selected and all the films are grown by the same growth condition. Structural and optical properties of the ZnO films ate different depending on the substrates although the films ate not epitaxial but polycrystalline. The ZnO film grown on $NdGaO_3(100)$ substrate shows the best overall properties among the films grown on substrates investigated in this study.

P2O3-PbO-SiO2-Al2O3계 조성을 이용하여 저온에서 소결이 가증하며 열팽창계수와 유전율이 낮은 회로기판용 glass ceramics를 제조하고자 하였다. 155$0^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 동안 용 융하여 제조한 모유리의열팽창 거동을 확인하기 위하여 TMA로 열분석을 실시하였으며 이 유리를 분말화하여 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 하였다. 이때 cristobalite 형성억제제로 Ga2O3를 사용 하였으며 Ga2O3 첨가량에 따른 억제 영향을 XRD를 통행 확인하였다. Ga2O3를 첨가한 유리 분말로 pellet을 제조하여 열처리를 하였고 소결시편의 표면을 SEM을 통해 관찰하였다. 열 처리한 pellet에 silver paste를 screen printing하여 유전율을 측정하였으며 조성에 따른 유 전율의 변화를 확인하였다.

In this study, MOSFETs fabricated on Si-doped, MBE-grown β-Ga₂O₃ are demonstrated. A Si-doped Ga₂O₃ epitaxial layer was grown on a Fe-doped, semi-insulating 1.5 cm × 1 cm Ga₂O₃ substrate using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The fabricated devices are circular type MOSFETs with a gate length of 3 ㎛, a source-drain spacing of 20 ㎛, and a gate width of 523 ㎛. The device exhibited a good pinch-off characteristic, a high on-off drain current ratio of approximately 2.7×10⁹, and a high breakdown voltage of 1,080 V, which demonstrates the potential of Ga₂O₃ for power device applications including electric vehicles, railways, and renewable energy.

In this study, $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors in its application to field emission displays and electroluminescence were synthesized through the precipitation method and $Mn^{2+}$ ions. A green luminescence activator, $Cr^{3+}$ ions, and a red luminescence activator were separately doped into $ZnGa_2O_4$, which was then screen printed to an indium tin oxide substrate. The thick films of the $ZnGa_2O_4$ were deposited with the various thicknesses using nano-sized powder. The best luminescence characteristics were shown at a thickness of 60 ${\mu}m$. Additionally, green-emission $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn^{2+}$ and red-emission $ZnGa_2O_4:Cr^{3+}$ phosphor thick films, which have superior characteristics, were manufactured through the screen-printing method. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors prepared through the precipitation method have wide application as phosphor of the full color emission.

The catalytic oxidations of several olefins in $CH_2Cl_2$ have been investigated using non-redox metalloporphyrin (M=Ga(III), In(III), Tl(III)) complexes as catalyst and sodium hypochlorite as terminal oxidant. Porphyrins were $(p-CH_3O)TPP,\;(p-CH_3)TPP,\;TPP,\;(p-F)TPP,\;(p-Cl)TPP\;and\;(F_20)TPP$ (TPP=tetraphenylporphyrin), and olefins were $(p-CH_3O)-,\;(p-CH_3)-,\;(p-H)-,\;(p-F)-,\;(p-Cl)-\;and\;(p-Br)styrene$styrene and cyclopentene and cyclohexene. The substrate conversion yield was discussed according to the substituent effects of metalloporphyrin and substrate, and the radius effect of non-redox metal ion. The conversion yield of substrate by changing the substituent of TPP increased in the order of $p-CH_3O$ < $p-CH_3$ < H < p-F < p-Cl, which was consistent with the sequence of $4{\sigma}$ values of TPP. But the substituent effect of substrate on the conversion yield decreased with increasing the ${\sigma}^+$ values on substrates in the order of p-CH3O > p-CH3 > H > p-Cl > p-Br. For the oxidation of several olefins, the complexes of In(III)- and Tl(III)-porphyrins turned out to be more active catalysts than Ga(III)-porphyrin.

In this study, we report the effect of pre-treatment of alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ grown on a sapphire substrate by halide vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). During the pre-treatment process, 10 sccm of GaCl gas was injected to the sapphire substrate at $470^{\circ}C$. The surface morphologies of the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ layers grown with various pre-treatment time (3, 5, and 10 min) were flat and crack-free. The transmittance of the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ epi-layers was measured to analyze their optical properties. The transmittance was over 80% within the range of visible light. The strain in the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ grown with a pre-treat 5 min was measured, and was found to be close to the theoretical XRD peak position. This can be explained by the reduction of strain having caused a lattice mismatch between the alpha-$Ga_2O_3$ layer and sapphire substrate. The calculated dislocation density of the screw and edge were $2.5{\times}10^5cm^{-2}$ and $8.8{\times}10^9cm^{-2}$, respectively.

A $1\;{\mu}m$ thick n-type GaAs layer with Si doping density of $1{\times}10^{17}/cm^{3}$ and a $500{\AA}$ thick undoped single crystalline AlAs layer were subsequently grown by molecular beam epitaxy on the $n^{+}$ GaAs substrate. The AlAs/GaAs layer was oxidized in $N_{2}$ bubbled $H_{2}O$ vapor($95^{\circ}C$) ambient at $400^{\circ}C$ for 2 and 3 hours. From the result of XPS analysis, small amounts of $As_{2}O_{3}$, AlAs, and elemental As were found in the samples oxidized up to 2 hours. After 3 hours oxidation, however, various oxides related to As were dissolved and As atoms were diffused out toward the oxide surface. The as-grown AlAs/GaAs layer was selectively converted to $Al_{2}O_{3}/GaAs$ at the oxidation temperature $400^{\circ}C$ for 3 hours. The oxidation temperature and time is very critical to stop the oxidation at the AlAs/GaAs interface and to form a defect-free surface layer.

Homoepitaxial growth of GaN on n-type GaN substrates was carried out by hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method. This enables us to reduce or to eliminate the bowing of the GaN substrate caused by thermal mismatch. As a result, the two opposite crystal surfaces have been found to possess low dislocation density. The surface polarity of the homoepitaxially grown GaN was confirmed by both etching of the surface and conversion beam electron diffraction(CBED). The surface morphology and the photoluminescencemeasurement indicated that the surface properties of N-polar face of the homoepitaxlally grown GaN are quite different from the initial N-polar face of the heteroepitaxially grown GaN substrate Also, both surfaces of the GaN substrate were characterized by room temperature Double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXRD) and photoluminescence measurement.

The selective area growth of GaN by metal organic chemical vapor deposition has been carried out on GaN/ sapphire substrate using $SiO_2$ mask. We investgated the effect of growth parameters such as flow rate of $NH_3$(500­~1300sccm) and the growth temperature(TEX>$950~1060^{\circ}C$) on the growth selectivity and characteristics of GaN using the Scanning Electron Microscopy(SEM). The selectivity of GaN improved as flow rate of NH, and growth temperature in­creased. But the grown GaN shapes on the substrate windows was independent of the flow rate of $NH_3$. On the pattern shapes such as circle, stripe, and radiational pattern(rotate the stripe pattern by $30^{\circ}, 45^{\circ}$), we observed the hexagonal pyramid, the lateral over growth on the mask layer, and the difference of the lateral growth rate depending on growth condition.
