The design procedure of a GaAs/AlGaAs semiconductor matrix optical switch is presented for a simplified tree architecture in the viewpoint of optical loss. A low loss, 0.537 dB/cm, pin type substrate is designed by considering the loss due to imputity doping at 1.3 $\mu$m wavelength. The operating voltage and the device length of a reversed ${\Delta}{\beta}$ electro-optic directional coupler(EODC) swith which is a cross-point device of the 4${\times}$4 matrix optical switch and the bending loss of rib waveguide are caculated as functions of waveguide parameters and bending parameters. There is an optimum bending radius for some waveguide parameters. It is recommened that higher optical confinement conditions such as wide waveguide width and higher rib-height should be chosen for structural parameters of a low loss and a process insensitive 4${\times}$4 matris optical switch. A 4${\times}$4 optical matrix switch which has a 3 dB loss and a 12 volt operating voltage is designed.

We investigated the flux pinning properties of both 10 mol% Zr-and Sn-doped $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) films with the same thickness of ~350 nm for a comparative purpose. The films were prepared on the $SrTiO_3$ (STO) single crystal substrate by the metal-organic deposition (MOD) process. Compared with Sn-doped YBCO film, Zr-doped one exhibited a significant enhancement in the critical current density ($J_c$) and pinning force density ($F_p$). The anisotropic $J_{c,min}/J_{c,max}$ ratio in the field-angle dependence of $J_c$ at 77 K for 1 T was also improved from 0.23 for Sn-doped YBCO to 0.39 for Zr-doped YBCO. Thus, the highest magnetic $J_c$ values of 9.0 and $2.9MA/cm^2$ with the maximum $F_p$ ($F_{p,max}$) values of 19 and $5GN/m^3$ at 65 and 77 K for H // c, respectively, could be achieved from Zr-doped YBCO film. The stronger pinning effect in Zr-doped YBCO film is attributable to smaller $BaZrO_3$ (BZO) nanoparticles (the average size ${\approx}28.4$ nm) than $YBa_2SnO_{5.5}$ (YBSO) nanoparticles (the average size ${\approx}45.0$ nm) incorporated in Sn-doped YBCO film since smaller nanoparticles can generate more defects acting as effective flux pinning sites due to larger incoherent interfacial area for the same doping concentration.

$La_{1-x}Sr_xMn_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_{3-{\delta}}$(LSMCu)에서 Sr 함량에 따른 구조적 변화와 전기전도도에 대해 연구, 고찰하였다. EDTA citric complexing process(ECCP)로 페로브스카이트 구조를 갖는 $La_{0.8}Sr_{0.2}MnO_3$(LSM)와 $La_{1-x}Sr_xMn_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_3$($0.1{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$)을 제조하였다. Sr 함량이 증가할수록 격자상수와 격자부피는 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 이는 Sr 함량이 증가함에 따라 B-site에서 증가하는 $Mn^{4+}$ 이온과 $Cu^{3+}$ 이온의 영향인 것으로 판단하였다. $0.1{\leq}x{\leq}0.3$ 범위의 조성에서 Sr 함량이 증가할수록 $500{\sim}1000^{\circ}C$에서 측정된 전기전도도는 증가하였고, x = 0.3 조성에서는 $750^{\circ}C$와 $950^{\circ}C$에서 각각 172.6 S/cm와 177.7 S/cm (최고값)를 나타내었다. 반면, x = 0.4 조성에서는 전기전도도가 감소하였는데 이는 입계에 발생한 산화물에 의한 영향으로 판단하였다. Sr 함량이 증가함에 따라 B-site에 존재하는 $Mn^{4+}$ 이온과 $Cu^{3+}$ 이온의 증가로 인해 격자수축이 발생하고, hopping mechanism에 관여하는 charge carrier들이 늘어나 전기전도도가 증가한 것으로 판단하였다.
