Bismuth-antimony-telluride based thermoelectric thin film materials were prepared by metal organic vapor phase deposition using trimethylbismuth, triethylantimony and diisopropyltelluride as metal organic sources. A planar type thermoelectric device has been fabricated using p-type $Bi_{0.4}Sb_{1.6}Te_3$ and n-type $Bi_2Te_3$ thin films. Firstly, the p-type thermoelectric element was patterned after growth of $4{\mu}m$ thickness of $Bi_{0.4}Sb_{1.6}Te_3$ layer. Again n-type $Bi_2Te_3$ film was grown onto the patterned p-type thermoelectric film and n-type strips are formed by using selective chemical etchant for $Bi_2Te_3$. The top electrical connector was formed by thermally deposited metal film. The generator consists of 20 pairs of p- and n-type legs. We demonstrate complex structures of different conduction types of thermoelectric element on same substrate by two separate runs of MOCVD with etch-stop layer and selective etchant for n-type thermoelectric material. Device performance was evaluated on a number of thermoelectric devices. To demonstrate power generation, one side of the device was heated by heating block and the voltage output was measured. The highest estimated power of 1.3mW is obtained at the temperature difference of 45K. We provide a promising approach for fabricating thin film thermoelectric generators by using MOCVD grown thermoelectric materials which can employ nanostructures for high thermoelectric properties.

In the past work, we showed that $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ thin films provide a promising alternative for PRAM applications to overcome the problems of conventional $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ PRAM devices. However, $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ thin films were unstable at SET and RESET process. Because of unstable state and its melting temperature, we alloyed As for 5wt%, 10wt% and 15wt% respectively. The phase transition temperature of $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$-only thin film is found to be 213$^{\circ}C$ while As 10wt% alloyed $Ge_1Se_1Te_2$ showed phase transition at 242$^{\circ}C$ with more stability.

There is a growing need for a nonvolatile memory technology with faster speed than existing nonvolatile memories. $T_c$(crystallization temperature) is confirmed by measuring the conductivity with the varying temperature. The sample is heated on the hotplate and slow down to the room-temperature. We prepared Te based alloy bulk. The materials can be used for nonvolatile random access memory.

A detailed investigation and structure of tested samples are clearly presented. As a reference, $Ge_1Se_1Te_2/As$ only sample was also investigated. We used compound of Ge-Se-Te material for phase-change cell. Actually, the performance properties have been improved surprisingly then conventional Ge-Sb-Te. However, crystallization time was as long as ever for amorphization time. We conducted this experiment in order to solve that problem by doping-As with Ag layer.

N type single crystal CdTe is grown by doping Gallium as 0.01 percent, by using zone melting method. And also p type CdTe is grown by doping Ag, Sb, and Te as 0.01%. Resistivity and Concentration of the n.p type single crystal are measured. And then Li ions are implanted on the n type CdTe by high voltage accellerator with different amount of impurity. Indium is evaporated on the p type in high vacuum condition. These sample are heated so as to make P-N Junction in Argon gas flow. Electrical properties for solar cell are investigated. Photovoltage and current are found to be varyed according to following factor: 1) amount of impurity 2) diffusion thickness 3) temperature and time for making P-N junction. Efficiency of the P-N Junction evaporated Indium is 6.5 when it is heated at 380.deg. C for 15 minutie.

비정질상과 결정상으로 가역변화하는 특성을 이용하여, 기존의 읽기전용 기록매체인 Compact Disk(CD)를 대체할 차세대 광기록매체로 주목받고 있는 Ge$_{2}$Sb$_{2}$Te$_{5}$(GST)의 상태변화에 따른 굴절율과 소광계수, 박막의 두께와 밀도 등 박막상수들을 구하였다. DC 스퍼터링방법으로 제작한 두꺼운 GST의 복소굴절율을 양자역학적 분산식을 이용한 모델링방법으로 구하고, 한편으로는 표면미시거칠기를 AFM(Atomic Force Microscopy)으로 결정한 다음, 타원해석 스펙트럼들을 수치해석적 역방계산하여 구한 복소굴절율과 비교하였다. 결정상과 비정질상일 때의 GST의 복소굴절율을 각각 구하고 이로부터 계산된 반사율을 측정된 반사율과 비교함으로써 수치해석적인 방법이 실제 GST의 복소굴절율과 더 일치하는 값ㅇㄹ 가지게 됨을 확인하였다. 이렇게 구한 GST의 복소굴절율을 기준데이터로 사용하여 실제 설계두께를 가지는 GST박막의 두께 및 표면거칠기층을 정량적으로 구하였다.다.

In this work, we report several experimental data capable of evaluating the phase transition characteristics of (InTe)x(GeTe)y (x = 0.1, 0.3, y =1) pseudo-binary thin films. (InTe)x(GeTe)y phase change thin films have been prepared by thermal evaporator. The crystallization characteristics of amorphous (InTe)x(GeTe)y thin films were investigated by using nano-pulse scanner with 658 nm laser diode (power : 1~17 mW, pulse duration : 10~460 ns) and XRD measurement. It was found that the crystalline speed of In-Ge-Te thin films are faster than $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$[1] and also the crystalline temperature is higher. Changes in the optical transmittance of as-deposited and annealed films were measured using a UV-VIS-IR spectrophotometer and four-point probe was used to measure the sheeresistance of InGeTe films annealed at different temperature.

Phase change memory (PCM) has attracted much attention as one of the most promising candidates for next-generation nonvolatile memory. In that regard, the purposes of the study are to propose reference of effective pulse parameter to control phase switching operation and to invest the effect of nitrogen doped in PCM materials for improved cycling stability and economic energy consumption. Switching operation of PCM is affected by electric pulse parameter and as shown in figure.1 are composed to RT(rising time), ST(setting time), FT(falling time) and the effect of these parameter was precisely investigated. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to confirm fine structure and retention cycle test was conducted to confirm reliability. Finally improvement reliability and economic power consumption in quantitatively are obtainable by optimum pulse parameter and nitrogen doping in GST material. these study is related to the engineering background of other semiconductor industries and it have confirmed to possibility further applications.

InAs/GaSb 제2형 응력 초격자(strained layer type II superlattice, T2SL)을 이용한 nBn 구조 장적외선 검출소자의 설계 및 제작을 하였다. InAs와 GaSb 두께에 따른 T2SL 구조의 장적외선 밴드갭 에너지를 Kronig-Penney 모델을 이용하여 계산하였다. 소자의 암전류 밀도를 줄이기 위해서, nBn 구조에서 장벽층인 $Al_{0.2}Ga_{0.8}Sb$ 성장 중에 Te 보상도핑(compansated doping)을 하였다. 온도(T) 80 K 및 인가전압($V_b$) -1.5 V에서, 반응스펙트럼 측정을 통한 소자의 차단파장은 ${\sim}10.2{\mu}m$ (~0.122 eV)로 나타났다. 또한 온도 변화에 따른 암전류 측정으로부터 도출된 활성화 에너지는 0.128 eV로 계산 되었다. T=80 K 및 $V_b$=-1.5 V에서 암전류는 $1.0{\times}10^{-2}A/cm^2$으로 측정되었다. 흑체복사 적외선 광원을 이용한 반응도(Responsivity)는 소자 온도 80 K 및 인가전압 -1.5 V의 조건에서 0.58 A/W로 측정되었다.

N-type $Bi_2Te_3-Sb_2Te_3$ solid solutions doped with 1$CdCl_2$ was prepared by melt spinning, crushing and vacuum sintering processes. Microstructure, bending strength and thermoelectric property were investigated as a function of the doping quantity from 0.03wt.% to 0.10wt.% and sintering temperature from $400^{\circ}C$ to $500^{\circ}C$, and finally compared with those of conventionally fabricated alloys. The alloy showed a good structural homogeneity as well as bending strength of $3.88Kgf/mm^2$. The highest thermoelectric figure of merit was obtained by doping 0.03wt.% and sintering at $500^{\circ}C$.
