Single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ layers were grown on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate at 410 C with hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system by evaporating CuAlSe$_2$ source at 680 C. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) and double crystal X -ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.24${\times}$10$\^$16/ cm$\^$-3/ and 295 cm$^2$/V $.$ s at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the CuAlSe$_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, Eg(T) = 2.8382 eV - (8.86 ${\times}$ 10$\^$-4/ eV/K)T$^2$/(T + 155K). After the as-grown single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ thin films were annealed in Cu-, Se-, and Al-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ thin films has been investigated by PL at 10 K. The native defects of V$\_$cd/, V$\_$se/, Cd$\_$int/, and Se$\_$int/ obtained by PL measurements were classified as donors or acceptors. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the Cu-atmosphere converted single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ thin films to an optical n-type. Also, we confirmed that Al in CuAlSe$_2$/GaAs did not form the native defects because Al in single crystal CuAlSe$_2$ thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

HVPE(Hydride vapor phase epitaxy) 공법은 기체상의 원료를 사용하여 박막 또는 단결정을 제조하는 공법이다. 화학적 기상증착법의 원리를 적용하여 난용융성 또는 고융점의 물질의 단결정을 성장할 수 있는 공법으로서, 질화갈륨(GaN) 단결정을 얻을 수 있는 공법 중 하나이다. 최근 동 공법을 이용하여 질화알루미늄(AlN) 단결정을 성장하고자 하는 연구가 많이 수행되어져 왔으나, 아직은 좋은 결과를 얻지 못하고 있다. 본 연구에서는 AlN 단결정을 HVPE 공법으로 성장하고자 하였다. 성장 공정에서 질소를 운송가스(Carrior gas)로 사용하였으며, 질소(N2)의 양의 변화에 따른 성장 결과를 고찰하여 보았다. 질소의 양이 증가함에 따른 성장 결정의 변화 양상을 확인할 수 있었다. 성장된 AlN 단결정의 형상을 광학 현미경을 사용하여 관찰하였고, 이중결정 X선 회절 분석(DCXRD, Double crystal X-ray diffractometry)을 이용하여, AlN 결정의 생성을 확인함과 동시에 성장된 단결정의 결정성도 알아보았다.

AlN 단결정을 $1600{\sim}1800^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 100 torr 이하의 진공하에서 $100^{\circ}C$ 간격으로 열처리하였다. AlN 단결정은 고주파유도가열 방식으로 가열되는 성장부를 갖는 성장장치를 사용하여 PVT법으로 얻어내었다. 단결정 시편들의 표면을 광학현미경으로 관찰하였으며, 성장된 압력 하에서 온도에 따라 형상이 달라짐을 알 수 있었다. 본 연구에서는 광학현미경 관찰 결과를 보고하고자 하며, 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 표면의 열에칭이 나타났는데, 이는 작은 에치핏의 형성을 통하여 관찰하였다.

SiC와 GaN 등의 광에너지갭 소재들의 전력반도체에 대한 활용과 소자의 개발 추세와 함께 더 높은 에너지갭을 갖는 AlN 단결정에 대한 연구도 2인치 단결정 웨이퍼의 개발 성공 등 많은 연구 결과가 보고되고 있다. 그러나, 화학기상증착공법을 적용하여 성장된 AlN 단결정은 수 마이크로미터의 두께 이하의 박막은 개발되었으나, 그 이상의 두께를 갖은 결과는 거의 없다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 화학기상증착공법중 하나인 HVPE(Hydride vapor phase epitaxy) 법을 적용하여 성장하고자 하였다. 성장된 AlN 단결정은 자체 제작된 설비를 이용하여 제작하였으며, 사파이어 기판을 사용하여, AlN 단 결정을 제조하기 위한 조건을 확립하고자 하였고, 그 결과를 광학현미경 관찰을 통하여 성장거동을 고찰하고자 하였다.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $CuAlSe_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuAlSe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $680^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $CuAlSe_2$ single crystal thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $9.24{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ and $295\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $CuAlSe_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)\;=\;2.8382\;eV\;-\;(8.68{\times}10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2/(T+155K)$. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $CuAlSe_2$ have been estimated to be 0.2026 eV and 0.2165 eV at 10K, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the ${\Gamma}_5$ states of the valence band of the $CuAlSe_2$. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10K are ascribed to the $A_1-$, $B_1-$, and $C_1$-exciton peaks for n = 1.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $ZnAl_2Se_4$ single-crystal thin films was prepared in a horizontal electric furnace. These $ZnAl_2Se_4$ polycrystals had a defect chalcopyrite structure, and its lattice constants were $a_0=5.5563{\AA}$ and $c_0=10.8897{\AA}$.To obtain a single-crystal thin film, mixed $ZnAl_2Se_4$ crystal was deposited on the thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by a hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and the substrate temperatures were $620^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single-crystal thin film was investigated by using a double crystal X-ray rocking curve and X-ray diffraction ${\omega}-2{\theta}$ scans. The carrier density and mobility of the $ZnAl_2Se_4$ single-crystal thin film were $8.23{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ and $287m^2/vs$ at 293 K, respectively. To identify the band gap energy, the optical absorption spectra of the $ZnAl_2Se_4$ single-crystal thin film was investigated in the temperature region of 10-293 K. The temperature dependence of the direct optical energy gap is well presented by Varshni's relation: $E_g(T)=E_g(0)-({\alpha}T^2/T+{\beta})$. The constants of Varshni's equation had the values of $E_g(0)=3.5269eV$, ${\alpha}=2.03{\times}10^{-3}eV/K$ and ${\beta}=501.9K$ for the $ZnAl_2Se_4$ single-crystal thin film. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $ZnAl_2Se_4$ were estimated to be 109.5 meV and 124.6 meV, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the ${\Gamma}_5$ states of the valence band of the $ZnAl_2Se_4/GaAs$ epilayer. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_1$-, $B_1$-exciton for n = 1 and $C_{21}$-exciton peaks for n = 21.
