  • We study lattice thermal conductivity of $Sb_2Te_3$ using molecular dynamics simulations. The interatomic potentials are fitted to reproduce total energy and elastic constants, and phonon properties calculated using the potentials are in reasonable agreement with first-principles calculations and experimental data. Our calculated lattice thermal conductivities of $Sb_2Te_3$ decrease with temperature from 150 K to 500 K. The in-plane lattice thermal conductivity of $Sb_2Te_3$ is higher than cross-plane lattice thermal conductivity of $Sb_2Te_3$, as in the case of $Bi_2Te_3$, which is consistent with the anisotropy of the elastic constants.

  • In this work, we report that crystallization speed as well as the electrical and optical properties about the N-doped $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin films. The 200-nm-thick N-doped $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin film was deposited on p-type (100) Si and glass substrate by RF reactive sputtering at room temperature. The amorphous-to-crystalline phase transformation of N-doped $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin films investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). 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 sheet resistance of N-doped $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin films annealed at different temperature. In addition, the surface morphology and roughness of the films were observed by Atomic Force Microscope (AFM). The crystalline speed of amorphous N-doped $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ films were measured by using nano-pulse scanner with 658 nm laser diode (power : 1~17 mW, pulse duration: 10~460 ns). It was found that the crystalline speed of thin films are decreased by adding N and the crystalline temperature is higher. This means that N-dopant in $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin film plays a role to suppress amorphous-to-crystalline phase transformation.

  • 상변화 메모리 재료로 사용 가능한 In-Sb-Te (IST) 박막을 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링법을 사용하여 증착한 후 열처리를 통해 온도에 따른 결정화 거동 및 미세구조를 투과전자현미경(TEM)을 통해 분석하였다. IST 박막은 as-dep 상태에서 비정질상으로 존재하였으며, 열처리 온도에 따라 결정상인 InSb, $In_3SbTe_2$, InTe으로 상변화가 일어났다. 이러한 상변화는 기존의 삼원계 상태도와 다른 비평형 상태에서의 상변태가 이루어짐을 확인할 수 있다. 상변화 과정 중 박막의 두께가 무질서하게 배열되었던 비정질상에서 규칙적인 배열을 갖는 결정질상으로 변할수록 감소하는 경향을 확인하였다. 또한 각각의 결정립의 크기도 온도가 증가할수록 증가하는 것을 관찰하였다. 특히, $350^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 박막의 InSb 상은 비정질 상태에서 표면에너지가 가장 낮은 {111}면을 따라 facet을 이루며 결정화가 이루어졌다. 온도가 증가함에 따라 $In_3SbTe_2$로 상변화가 일어났는데, $400^{\circ}C$ 열처리한 시편의 경우 미소영역에서 마이크로 트윈들이 관찰되었다. 이 면결함은 {111}면을 따라 양쪽의 격자점들이 일치하는 정합 쌍정립계를 이루고 있었으며, $450^{\circ}C$에서 동일영역을 관찰해 본 결과 쌍정 결함들이 치유되어 {111} facet 면을 이루고 있는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 비교적 작은 영역에서 상분리가 일어난 InTe 상도 관찰하였다. InTe 상의 경우 포정반응 온도인 $555^{\circ}C$보다 낮은 온도에서 관찰되었는데, InTe의 (002)면과 $In_3SbTe_2$의 (111)면이 비슷한 면간거리를 가지고 있음을 확인하였다. 추가적으로 $500^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서 이들의 결정학적 관계에 따른 상변화 과정에 연구가 수행되어야 할 것으로 생각된다.

  • AgInSbTe물질은 compact disc rewritable(CD-RW)와 rewritable digital versatile disc (DVD+RW)과 같은 상변화 기록매체에 널리 쓰여지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 기존 AgInSbTe조성에 Te가 증가되었을때 변화하는 상변화 특성에 대한 연구를 수행하기 위하여 ($Ag_{3.4}In_{3.7}Sb_{76.4}Te_{16.5})x(Te)1-x$의 조성 (x=1,0.9,0.8,0.7)의 벌크 및 박막시료를 제작하였고 열증착방식을 이용하여 200nm 두께의 박막을 형성하였다. 각 박막은 질소분위기에서 100-300도 범위에 1 시간동안 열처리 하였고 XRD와 UV-ViS-NIR Spectrophotometer룰 통해 각 조성의 구조 및 광학적 특성 분석을 살시하였다. 또한 as-deposited 박막에 대하여 4-point probe를 사용하여 면저항을 측정하였고 AFM (atom force microscopy)을 통해 표면분석을 실시하였다.

  • In other to progress better crystallization transition and long phase-transformation data of phase-change memory (PRAM), we investigated about the effect of Sb doping and Ag ions percolating into Ge-Se-Te phase-change material. Doped Sb concentrations was determined each of 10 wt%, 20 wt% and 30 wt%. As the Sb-doping concentration was increased, the resistivity decreased and the crystallization temperature increased. Ionization of Ag was progressed by DPSS laser (532 nm) for 1 hour. The resistivity was more decreased and the crystallization temperature was more increased in case of adding Ag layer under Sb-(Ge-Se-Te) thin film. At the every condition of thin films included Ag layer more stable states were indicated compare with just Sb-doped Ge-Se-Te thin films.

  • The present study focused on the synthesis of a bismuth-antimony-tellurium-based thermoelectric nanopowders using plasma arc discharge process. The chemical composition, phase structure, particle size of the synthesized powders under various synthesis conditions were analyzed using XRF, XRD and SEM. The powders as synthesized were sintered by the plasma activated sintering. The thermoelectric properties of sintered body were analyzed by measuring Seebeck coefficient, specific electric resistivity and thermal conductivity. The chemical composition of the synthesized Bi-Sb-Te-based powders approached that of the raw material with an increasing DC current of the are plasma. The synthesized Bi-Sb-Te-based powder consist of a mixed phase structure of the $Bi_{0.5}Sb_{1.5}Te_{3}$, $Bi_{2}Te_{3}$ and $Sb_{2}Te_{3}$ phases. This powder has homogeneous mixing state of two different particles in an average particle size; about 100nm and about 500nm. The figure of merit of the sintered body of the synthesized 18.75 wt.%Bi-24.68 wt.%Sb-56.57 wt.%Te nanopowder showed higher value than one of the sintered body of the mechanically milled 12.64 wt.%Bi-29.47 wt.%Sb-57.89 wt.%Te powder.

  • In this work, we report several experimental data capable of evaluating the phase transformation characteristics of GeSbTe pseudobinary thin films comprehensively utilized as phase change materials. The phase transformation of the GeSbTe thin films was confirmed by XRD measurement from amorphous to hexagonal structure via fee structure except for $Ge_8Sb_2Te_{11}$. In addition, X-ray photoelectron spectra analysis revealed to weaken Ge-Te bond for $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ and to strengthen the bonds of all elements for $Ge_8Sb_2Te_{11}$ during the amorphous to crystalline transition. The values of optical energy gap $(E_{OP})$ were around 0.71 and 0.50 eV and the slopes of absorption in extended region (B) were ${\sim}5.1{\times}10^5$ and ${\sim}10{\times}10^5cm^{-1}{\cdot}V^{-1}$ for the amorphous and fcc-crystalline structures, respectively. Finally, the kinetics of amorphous-to-crystalline phase change on the GeSbTe films was characterized using a nano-pulse scanner with 658-nm laser diode (power; $1{\sim}17$ mW, pulse duration; $10{\sim}460$ ns).

  • The dielectric thin films applied to multi-colored semitransparent thin film solar cells have been extensively studied. In this work, we prepared GeSbTe and GeTe chalcogenide thin films using magnetron sputtering, and investigated their optical and phase-change properties to replace the dielectric films. The changes of surface morphology, sheet resistance, and X-ray diffraction of the Te-based chalcogenide films support the fact that the amorphous stability of GeTe films is superior to that of GeSbTe films. While both amorphous GeSbTe and GeTe films thinner than 30 nm have optical transparency between 5% and 60%, GeTe films transmit more visible light than GeSbTe films. It is confirmed by computer simulation that the color of semitransparent silicon thin film solar cells can be adjusted with the addition of GeSbTe or GeTe films. Since it is possible to adjust the contrast of the solar cells by exploiting the phase-change property, the two kinds of chalcogenide films are anticipated to be used as an optical layer in semitransparent solar cells.

  • $Bi_{2}Te_{3}-Sb_{2}Te_{3}$, $Bi_{2}Te_{3}-Bi_{2}Se_{3}$ solid solutions are of great interest as materials for thermoelectric energy conversion. One of the key technologies to ensure the efficiency of thermoelectric device is to obtain chemically homogeneous solid solutions. In this work, the new process with rapid solidification followed by hot pressing was investigated to produce homogeneous thermoelectric materials. Characteristics of the materials were examined with XRD, SEM, EPMA-line scan and bending test. Property variations of the materials were investigated as a function of variables, such as excess Te quantity and hot pressing temperature. Quenched ribbons are very brittle and consisted of homogeneous $Bi_{2}Te_{3}$, $Sb_{2}Te_{3}$ solid solutions. When the process parameters were optimized, the maximum figure of merit was 3.073$\times$$10^{-3}K^{-4}$. The bending strength of the material, hot pressed at 45$0^{\circ}C$, was 5.87 kgf/${mm}^2$.

  • Phase transformation effects on mechanical properties of $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$, which is a promising candidate material for Phase Change Random Access Memory (PRAM), were studied. $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$ thin films, which was thermally annealed with different conditions, were analyzed using XRD, AFM, 4-point probe method and reflectance measurement. As the temperature and the dwelling time increased, crystallity and grain size increased, which enhanced elastic modulus and hardness. Furthermore, N2 doping, which was used for better electrical properties, was proved to decrease elastic modulus and hardness of $Ge_2Sb_2Te_5$.
