In submicron MOSFET devices, maintaining the ratio between the channel length (L) and the channel depth (D) at 3 : 1 or larger is known to be critical in preventing deleterious short-channel effects. In this study, n-type SOI-MOSFETs with a channel length of $0.1\;{\mu}m$ and a Si film thickness (channel depth) of $0.033\;{\mu}m$ (L : D = 3 : 1) were virtually fabricated using a TSUPREM-4 process simulator. To form functioning transistors on the very thin Si film, a protective layer of $0.08\;{\mu}m$-thick surface oxide was deposited prior to the source/drain ion implantation so as to dampen the speed of the incoming As ions. The p-type boron doping concentration of the Si film, in which the device channel is formed, was used as the key variable in the process simulation. The finished devices were electrically tested with a Medici device simulator. The result showed that, for a given channel doping concentration of $1.9{\sim}2.5\;{\times}\;10^{18}\;cm^{-3}$, the threshold voltage was $0.5{\sim}0.7\;V$, and the subthreshold swing was $70{\sim}80\;mV/dec$. These value ranges are all fairly reasonable and should form a 'magic region' in which SOI-MOSFETs run optimally.

For the channel doping of shallow junction and retrograde well formation in CMOS, indium can be implanted in silicon. The retrograde doping profiles can serve the needs of channel engineering in deep MOS devices for punch-through suppression and threshold voltage control. Indium is heavier element than B, $BF_2$ and Ga ions. It also has low coefficient of diffusion at high temperatures. Indium ions can be cause the erode of wafer surface during the implantation process due to sputtering. For the ultra shallow junction, indium ions can be implanted for p-doping in silicon. UT-MARLOWE and SRIM as Monte carlo ion-implant models have been developed for indium implantation into single crystal and amorphous silicon, respectively. An analytical tool was used to carry out for the annealing process from the extracted simulation data. For the 1D (one-dimensional) and 2D (two-dimensional) diffused profiles, the analytical model is also developed a simulation program with $C^{{+}{+}}$ code. It is very useful to simulate the indium profiles in implanted and annealed silicon autonomously. The fundamental ion-solid interactions and sputtering effects of ion implantation are discussed and explained using SRIM and T-dyn programs. The exact control of indium doping profiles can be suggested as a future technology for the extreme shallow junction in the fabrication process of integrated circuits.

태양전지 제조공정에서 열처리로 레이저를 사용하는 도핑공정은 태양전지의 성능을 결정짓는 중요한 요소이다. 그러나 퍼니스를 이용하는 공정에서는 선택적으로 고농도(Heavy) 도핑영역을 형성하기가 어렵다. 레이저를 사용한 선택적 도핑의 경우 고가의 레이저 장비가 요구되어지며, 레이저 도핑 후 고온의 에너지로 인한 웨이퍼의 구조적 손상 문제가 발생된다. 본 연구는 저가이면서 코로나 방전 구조의 대기압 플라즈마 소스를 제작하였고, 이를 통한 선택적 도핑에 관한 연구를 하였다. 대기압 플라즈마 제트는 Ar 가스를 주입하여 수십 kHz 주파수를 인가하여 플라즈마를 발생시키는 구조로 제작하였다. P-type 웨이퍼(Cz)에 인(P)이 shallow 도핑 된(120 Ohm/square) PSG (Phosphorus Silicate Glass)가 제거되지 않은 웨이퍼를 사용하였다. 대기압 플라즈마 도핑 공정 처리시간은 15 s와 30 s이며, 플라즈마 전류는 40 mA와 70 mA로 처리하였다. 웨이퍼의 도핑프로파일은 SIMS (Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy)측정을 통하여 분석하였으며, 도핑프로파일로 전기적 특성인 면저항(sheet resistance)을 파악하였다. 도펀트로 사용된 PSG에 대기압 플라즈마 제트로 도핑공정을 처리한 결과 전류와 플라즈마 처리시간이 증가됨에 따라 도핑깊이가 깊어지고, 면저항이 향상하였다. 대기압 플라즈마 도핑 후 웨이퍼의 표면구조 손상파악을 위한 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy) 측정결과 도핑 전과 후 웨이퍼의 표면구조는 차이가 없음을 확인하였으며, 대기압 플라즈마 도핑 폭도 전류와 플라즈마 처리시간이 증가됨에 따라 증가하였다.

The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) has been adjudicating on sports-related disputes since 1984. CAS can be regarded as world supreme court for sports settling down about 4200 cases including doping issues. Doping disputes are generally processed by CAS Appeals division and Anti-Doping Division. An appeal against the decision by sports-related bodies may be filed with CAS Appeals Division. Doping issues concerning Olympic games are on Anti-Doping Division, introduced from 2016 Olympic games and invested with complete authority by IOC. The Award of Maria Sharapova finds a player is responsible if found to have committed any Anti-Doping Rule Violation regardless of his/her intention or fault. It offers detailed jurisprudence on imposing such a specific period of ineligibility in view of the totality of the circumstances. The award of Xinyi Chen also confirms the Strict Liability Rule on anti-doping disputes. The player appealed there could be either accidental contamination of drinks, or doping laboratories' mistakes that affected the test results. But, all of them were rejected. Though dealing with doping disputes in a timely manner is important for seasonal sports events like Olympic games, it is necessary to prepare the acceptable and fair process for the players in the future.

In high-efficiency Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ solar cells, Na is doped into a Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ light-absorbing layer from sodalime-glass substrate through Mo back-contact layer, resulting in an increase of device performance. However, this supply of sodium is limited when the process temperature is too low or when a substrate does not supply Na. This limitation can be overcome by supplying Na through external doping. For Na doping, an NaF interlayer was deposited on Mo/glass substrate. A Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ absorber layer was deposited on the NaF interlayer by a three-stage co-evaporation process As the thickness of NaF interlayer increased, smaller grain sizes were obtained. The resistivity of the NaF-doped CIGS film was of the order of $10^3{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ indicating that doping was not very effective. However, highest conversion efficiency of 14.2% was obtained when the NaF thickness was 25 nm, suggesting that Na doping using an NaF interlayer is one of the possible methods for external doping.

3D semiconductor material of silicon that is used throughout the semiconductor industry currently faces a physical limitation of the development of semiconductor process technology. The research into the next generation of nano-semiconductor materials such as semiconductor properties superior to replace silicon in order to overcome the physical limitations, such as the 2-dimensional graphene material in 2D transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) has been researched. In particular, 2D TMD doping without severely damage of crystal structure is required different conventional methods such as ion implantation in 3D semiconductor device. Here, we study a p-type doping technique on tungsten diselenide (WSe2) for p-channel 2D transistors by adjusting the concentration of hydrochloric acid through Raman spectroscopy and electrical/optical measurements. Where the performance parameters of WSe2 - based electronic device can be properly designed or optimized. (on currents increasing and threshold voltage positive shift.) We expect that our p-doping method will make it possible to successfully integrate future layered semiconductor devices.

Low temperature activation of dopants which were doped using ion mass doping system in amorphous silicon(a-Si) thin films was investigated. With a 20.angs.-thick Ni film on top of the a-Si thin film, the activation temperature of dopants lowered to 500.deg. C. When the doping was performaed after the deposition of Ni thin film on the a-Si thin films (post-doping), the activation time was shorter than that of dopants mass, the activation time of the dopants doped by pre-doping method increased. It turned NiSi2 formation, while the decrease of activation time was mainly due to the enhancement of the NiSi2 formation by mixing of Ni and a-Si at the interface of Ni and a -Si thin during the ion doping process.

In this study, optical diagnosis of plasma was performed for nitrogen doping in graphene using a horizontal inductively coupled plasma (ICP) system. Graphene was prepared by mechanical exfoliation and the ICP system using nitrogen gas was ignited for plasma-induced and defect-suppressed nitrogen doping. In order to derive the optimum condition for the doping, plasma power, working pressure, and treatment time were changed. Optical emission spectroscopy (OES) was used as plasma diagnosis method. The Boltzmann plot method was adopted to estimate the electron excitation temperature using obtained OES spectra. Ar ion peaks were interpreted as a reference peak. As a result, the change in the concentration of nitrogen active species and electron excitation temperature depending on process parameters were confirmed. Doping characteristics of graphene were quantitatively evaluated by comparison of intensity ratio of graphite (G)-band to 2-D band, peak position, and shape of G-band in Raman profiles. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy also revealed the nitrogen doping in graphene.

A low temperature doping technique to be applied in poly-Si TFTs on plastic substrates was investigated. Heavily-doped amorphous silicon layers were deposited on poly-Si and the dopant atoms were driven in by subsequent excimer laser annealing. The entire process was carried out under a substrate temperature of 120 $^{\circ}C$, and a sheet resistance of as low as 300 ${\Omega}$/sq. was obtained.

In this paper, we propose a superjunction trench gate MOSFET (SJ TGMOSFET) fabricated through a simple p-pillar forming process using deep trench and boron silicate glass doping process technology to reduce the process complexity. Throughout the various boron doping experiments, as well as the process simulations, we optimize the process conditions related with the p-pillar depth, lateral boron doping concentration, and diffusion temperature. Compared with a conventional TGMOSFET, the potential of the SJ TGMOSFET is more uniformly distributed and widely spread in the bulk region of the n-drift layer due to the trenched p-pillar. The measured breakdown voltage of the SJ TGMOSFET is at least 28% more than that of a conventional device.
