We have investigated the effect of $H_2$ plasma treatment on the BZO (ZnO:B, Boron doped ZnO) thin films. The BZO thin films are prepared by LP-MOCVD (Low Pressure Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) technique and the samples of BZO thin film are performed with $H_2$ plasma treatment by plasma treatment system with 13.56 MHz as RIE (Reactive Ion Etching) type. After exposing $H_2$ plasma treatment, measurement of transmittance, reflectance and haze spectra in 300~1100 nm, electrical properties as resistivity, mobility and carrier concentration and work function was analysed. Regarding the results of the $H_2$ plasma treatment on the BZO thin films are application to the TCO for solar cells, such as the a-Si thin films solar cell.

150-nm-thick In-Zn-Tin-Oxide (IZTO) films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering after a 10 to 50-nm-thick $SiO_2$ buffer layer was deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates. The electrical, structural, and optical properties of the IZTO/$SiO_2$/PET films were analyzed with respect to the thickness of the $SiO_2$ buffer layer. The mechanical properties were outstanding at a $SiO_2$ thickness of 50 nm, with a resistivity of $1.45{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}-cm$, carrier concentration of $8.84{\times}10^{20}/cm^3$, hall mobility of $4.88cm^2/Vs$, and average IZTO surface roughness of 12.64 nm. Also, the transmittances were higher than 80%, and the structure of the IZTO films were amorphous, regardless of the $SiO_2$ thickness. These results indicate that these films are suitable for use as a transparent conductive oxide for transparency display devices.

Fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) thin film was coated on aluminosilicate glass at $450^{\circ}C$ by spray pyrolysis method. In the range of 0-2.7 molar ratio of F/Sn, the variations of electrical conductivity and visible light transmission were investigated. At the F/Sn ratio of 1.765, the film showed the lowest electrical resistivity value of $3.0{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}\;cm$, the highest carrier concentration of $2.404{\times}10^{21}/cm^3$, and about $8\;cm^2/V{\cdot}sec$ of electronic mobility. The FTO film showed a preferred orientation of (200) plane parallel to the substrate. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis results indicated that the contents of $Sn^{4+}-O$ bonding are the highest at 1.765 of F/Sn molar ratio.

The transparent electrode properties of ITO films deposited by RF magnetron sputtering with process pressure were investigated. The ITO thin films was deposited on a glass substrate using a target with 3in diameter sintered at a ratio of $In_2O_3$ : $SnO_2$ (9 : 1). 200-nm-thick ITO thin films were manufactured by various process pressures ($2.0{\times}10^{-2}$, $7.0{\times}10^{-3}$ and $2.0{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr). The optical transmittance and resistivity of the deposited ITO thin films showed a relatively satisfactory result under $10^{-2}$ Torr. For high process pressure, the optical transmittance was below 80%, while for low process pressure, the optical transmittance was above 85%. As a result of of mobility, resistivity and carrier concentration by Hall measurement, we obtained satisfactory properties to apply into a transparent conducting thin film.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films (30 nm) were deposited on PET substrate by reactive DC magnetron sputtering using In/Sn(2, 5 wt.%) metal alloy target without intentionally substrate heating during the deposition under different DC powers of 70 ~ 110 W. The electrical properties were estimated by Hall-effect measurements system. The resistivity of ITO thin film deposited using In/Sn (5 wt.%) metal alloy target at low DC power increased with increasing annealing time. However, they increased with increasing annealing time at high DC power. In the case of ITO (Sn 2 wt%), we can't find clear change in resistivity with increasing annealing time. However, carrier density and mobility showed difference behavior due to change of oxygen vacancy.

Recently, the growth of ZnO thin film on glass substrate has been investigated extensively for transparent thin film transistor. We have studied the phase transition of ZnO thin films from metal to semiconductor by changing RF power in the deposition process by RF magnetron sputtering system. The structural, electric, and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were investigated. The film deposited with 75 watt of RF power showed n-type semiconductor characteristic having suitable resistivity $-3.56\;{\times}\;10^{+1}\;{\Omega}cm$, carrier concentration $-2.8\;{\times}\;10^{17}\;cm^{-3}$, and mobility $-0.613\;cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$ while other films by 25, 50, 100 watt of RF power closed to metallic films. From the surface analysis (AFM), the number of crystal grain of ZnO thin film increased as RF power increased. The transmittance of the film was over 88% in the visible region regardless of the change in RF power.

수치해석을 이용하여 전력 BJT의 정특성을 분석하는 방법을 제안한다. 고농도의 불순물이 주입된 영역에서 반송자 농도를 정교하게 구하기 위해 Fermi-Dirac 통계를 고려하며, 베이스 영역에서 재결합 전류를 계산하기 위해 Philips Unified 이동도 모델과 SRH 및 Auger 생성-재결합 모델을 사용한다. 제안된 방법을 검증하기 위해 현재 산업체에서 사용중인 전력 BJT의 베이스 전류를 $1.0[{\mu}A]$에서부터 $3.5[{\mu}A]$까지 $0.5[{\mu}A]$ 단위로 증가시키면서 컬렉터 전류의 실측치와 BANDIS와 비교한 결과 8.9%이내의 상대오차를 보였다.

Sn을 도핑한 In$_2$O$_3$(ITO) 박막을 R.F. 마그네트론 반응성 스퍼터링법에 의해서 증착하였다. 동일한 마그네트론 스퍼터링 조건에서 증착위치에 따른 ITO 박막의 저항, 자유 전하 농도 및 이동도 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 동일한 마그네트론 스퍼터링 조건임에도 불구하고, ITO 박막의 전기적 특성은 증착위치에 따라 불균질성을 나타내었다. 타겟의 중심에 위치한 기판위에 증착된 ITO 박막의 저항은 최소 값인 2~4$\times$$10^{-4}$ $\Omega$.cm인 반면, 중심에서 멀어질수록 박막의 전기 저항은 대칭적으로 증가하였다. ITO 박막의 밀도 측정 결과도 중심에서 이론 밀도 값의 97%에 해당하는 7.0g/$cm^3$를 나타내나, 위치가 중심에서 멀어질수록 박막의 밀도가 대칭적으로 감소하였다. ITO 박막에서 이동도와 전도도는 밀도에 직접적으로 영향을 받는 것이 실험적으로 확인되었다. ITO 박막의 밀도가 7.0g/$cm^3$(이론 밀도의 97%)인 경우, 자유행정거리와 입자크기(=주상의 직경)가 동일한 값을 가지나, 밀도가 이 보다 감소하면 자유행정거리와 입자크기의 차이는 더욱 증가하였다. 이 결과는 ITO 박막의 밀도가 7.0g/$cm^3$인 경우는 입계가 자유 전자의 전도에 중요한 산란 원으로 작용하는 반면, 그 외의 경우는 결정 내의 공격자점, 공공, 기공 등이 다른 산란 원으로 작용하고 있다는 것을 나타낸다.

We investigated oxygen plasma effect on defect states near the interface of AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistor (HEMT) structure grown on a silicon substrate. After the plasma treatment, electrical properties were evaluated using a frequency dependant Capacitance-Voltage (C-V) and a temperature dependant C-V measurements, and a deep level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) method to study the change of defect densities. In the depth profile resulted from the temperature dependant C-V, a sudden decrease in the carrier concentration for two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) nearby 250 K was observed. In C-V measurement, the interface states were improved in case of the oxygen-plasma treated samples, whereas the interface was degraded in case of the nitrogen-plasma treated sample. In the DLTS measurement, it was observed the two kinds of defects well known in AlGaN/GaN structure grown on sapphire substrate, which have the activation energies of 0.15 eV, 0.25 eV below the conduction band. We speculate that this defect state in AlGaN/GaN on the silicon substrate is caused from the decrease in 2DEG's carrier concentrations. We compared the various DLTS signals with filling pulse times to identify the characteristics of the newly found defect. In the filling pulse time range under the 80 us, the activation energies changed as the potential barrier model. On the other hand, in the filling pulse time range above the 80 us, the activation energies changed as the extended potential model. Therefore, we suggest that the found defect in the AlGaN/GaN/Si structure could be the extended defect related with AlGa/N/GaN interface states.

Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with two-dimensional layered structure, such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) and tungsten diselenide (WSe2), are considered attractive materials for future semiconductor devices due to its relatively superior electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. Their excellent scalability down to a monolayer based on the van der Waals layered structure without surface dangling bonds makes semiconductor devices based on TMD free from short channel effect. In comparison to the widely studied transistor based on MoS2, researchs focusing on WSe2 transistor are still limited. WSe2 is more resistant to oxidation in humid ambient condition and relatively air-stable than sulphides such as MoS2. These properties of WSe2 provide potential to fabricate high-performance filed-effect transistor if outstanding electronic characteristics can be achieved by suitable metal contacts and doping phenomenon. Here, we demonstrate the effect of two different metal contacts (titanium and platinum) in field-effect transistor based on WSe2, which regulate electronic characteristics of device by controlling the effective barreier height of the metal-semiconductor junction. Electronic properties of WSe2 transistor were systematically investigated through monitoring of threshold voltage shift, carrier concentration difference, on-current ratio, and field-effect mobility ratio with two different metal contacts. Additionally, performance of transistor based on WSe2 is further enhanced through reliable and controllable n-type doping method of WSe2 by triphenylphosphine (PPh3), which activates the doping phenomenon by thermal annealing process and adjust the doping level by controlling the doping concentration of PPh3. The doping level is controlled in the non-degenerate regime, where performance parameters of PPh3 doped WSe2 transistor can be optimized.
