  • DC/RF magnetron sputtering system을 이용하여 CoCr 박막 및 CoCrMo 박막의 Si 하지층의 도입에 따른 자기적 특성 및 미세구조의 변화에 대해 살펴보았다. 박막의 자기적 특성을 VSM을 통하여 측정한 결과, 고온에서 증착된 CoCrMo/Si 박막의 경우가 CoCr/Si 박막과는 달리 Si 하지층의 두께가 증가할수록 수직보자력값이 증가하는 것을 알 수 있었으며 AFM과 SEM을 이용한 surface morphology의 변화를 통하여 결정립 미세화와 균일화가 수직보자력을 증진시킴을 알 수 있었다. 또한, 박막의 결정배향성 및 미세구조를 XRD와 SEM을 통하여 관찰한 결과, CoCrMo/Si 박막의 (0002)우선 배향성이 CoCr/Si 박막의 (0002) 우선 배향성보다 상당히 크게 증진된 것을 볼 수 있었으며, SEM의 단면 측정을 통하여 CoCrMo/Si 박막과 CoCr/Si 박막의 기판 표면에서 성장하는 columnar 구조의 발달을 잘 관찰할 수 있었다.

  • vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser(VCSEL) 웨이퍼에서 측정한 반사 스펙트럼을 전달 매트릭스 방법으로 계산한 반사스펙트럼과 비교함으로써 비파괴적인 방법으로 구조적인 두께 오차가 발생한 층을 찾아 내고 오차의 크기를 추정하는 방법론을 제시하였다. DBR 층의 오차를 종합하여 나타낸 n-DBR 층의 두께 오차, 즉 유효 오차를 도입하면, 반사 스펙트럼의 모양은 유효 오차에만 의존한다는 사실에 이 방법의 근거를 두고 있다. 활성층 영역의 두께 오차는 Fabry-Perot 발진파장에만 영향을 주며, 랜덤 두께 오차의 표준 편차 값이 0.005 이하일 때에 측정과 계산된 반사 스펙트럼의 비교는 신뢰성을 갖는다. 이 방법론은 VCSEL 웨이퍼 제작시 측정되는 반사 스펙트럼을 이용하므로 비파괴적이며, 0.5 nm의 두께 오차를 찾아 낼 수 있을 정도로 정밀도가 높다.

  • We have evaluated a 1.3 ${\mu}m$ vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), whose bottom mirror and central active layer were grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and whose top mirror was covered with a dielectric coating, for 10 Gb/s data transmission over single-mode fibers (SMFs). Successful demonstration of error-free transmission of the directly modulated VCSEL signals at data rate of 10 Gb/s over a 10 km-long SMF was achieved for operating temperatures from $20^{\circ}C$ to $60^{\circ}C$ up to bit-error-rate (BER) of $10^{-12}$. The DC bias current and modulation currents are only 7 mA and 6 mA, respectively. The results indicate that the VCSEL is a good low-power consuming optical signal source for 10 GBASE Ethernet applications under controlled environments.

  • This paper is for enhancing the breakdown voltage of MHEMTs with an InP-etchstop layer. Gate-recess structures has been simulated and analyzed for the breakdown of the devices with the InP-etchstop layer. The fully removed recess structure in the drain side of MHEMT shows that the breakdown voltage enhances from 2V to almost 4V and that the saturation current at gate voltage of 0V is reduced from 90mA to 60mA at drain voltage of 2V. This is because the electron-captured negatively fixed charges at the drain-side interface between the InAlAs barrier layer and the $Si_3N_4$ passivation layer deplete the InGaAs channel layer more and thus decreases the electron current passing the channel layer. In the paper, the fully-recessed asymmetric gate-recess structure at the drain side shows the on-breakdown voltage enhancement from 2V to 4V in the MHEMTs.

  • We have studied the effective optical absorption power of Si solar cell with $SiO_2$-antireflection layer based on a mathematical modelling of AM(air mass)1 spectrum and Si refractive index in the wavelength range(0.4 $\mu\textrm{m}\leq$λ$\leq$$0.97\mu\textrm{m}$). The effective optical absorption power obtained from the theoretical calculation was 450 and 520 W/$\m^2$ for the Si solar cells with $SiO_2$-antireflection layer of 500$\AA$ and 1000$\AA$, respectively. The optimum thickness of $SiO_2$-antireflection layer showing the minimum reflection loss was about 1000$\AA$ in the computer simulation. Two kinds of Si solar cells named EBS(500$\AA$) and EBS(l000$\AA$) were fabricated to evaluate the effect of $SiO_2$-antireflection layer thickness on the optical absorption. The epitaxial base Si cell with $SiO_2$-antireflection layer of 1000$\AA$ [EBS(l000$\AA$)] showed the output power improvement of about 15% upon the EBS(500$\AA$) cell due to larger absorption of effective optical power under illumination of AM1, 1 sun.

  • Growth characteristics and microstructure of AlN thin films grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy on Si substrates have been investigated. Growing temperature and substrate orientation were chosen as major variables of the experiment. Reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and transmission electron microscopy/diffraction (TEM/TED) techniques were employed to characterize the microstructure of the films. On Si(100) substrates, AlN thin films were grown along the hexagonal c-axis preferred orientation at temperature range 850-90$0^{\circ}C$. However on Si(111), the AlN films were epitaxially grown with directional coherency in AlN(0001)/Si(111), AlN(1100)/Si(110), and AlN(1120)/Si(112) at 85$0^{\circ}C$ and the epitaxial coherencry seemed to be slightly distorted with increasing temperature. The microstructure of AlN thin films on Si(111) substrates showed that the films include a lot of crystal defects and there exist micro-gaps among the columns.

  • Static characteristics of SiC (silicon carbide) lateral p-i-n diodes implemented on semi-insulating substrate without an epitaxial layer are inVestigated. On-axis SiC HPSI (high purity semi-insulating) and VDSI (Vanadium doped semi-insulating) substrates are used to fabricate the lateral p-i-n diode. The space between anode and cathode ($L_{AC}$) is Varied from 5 to $20{\mu}m$ to inVestigate the effect of intrinsic-region length on static characteristics. Maximum breakdown Voltages of HPSI and VDSI are 1117 and 841 V at $L_{AC}=20{\mu}m$, respectiVely. Due to the doped Vanadium ions in VDSI substrate, diffusion length of carriers in the VDSI substrate is less than that of the HPSI substrate. A forward Voltage drop of the diode implemented on VDSI substrate is 12 V at the forward current of $1{\mu}A$, which is higher than 2.5 V of the diode implemented on HPSI substrate.

  • Crystallographic and magnetic characteristics of CoCr-based magnetic thin film for perpendicular magnetic recording media were influenced on preparing conditions. In these, there is that substrate temperature was parameter that increases perpendicular coercivity of CoCrTa magnetic layer using recording layer. While preparation of CoCr-based doublelayer, by optimizing substrate temperature, we expect to increase perpendicular anisotropy of CoCr magnetic layer and prepare ferromagnetic recording layer with a good quality by epitaxial growth. CoCrTa/Si doublelayer showed a good dispersion angle of c-axis orientation $\Delta$$\theta$$_{50}$ caused by inserting amorphous Si underlayer which prepared at underlayer substrate temperature 250C. Perpendicular coercivity was constant, in-plane coercivity was controlled a low value about 2000e. This result implied that Si underlayer could restrain growth of initial layer of CoCrTa thin film, which showed bad magnetic properties effectively without participating magnetization patterns of magnetic layer. In case of CoCrTa/Si that prepared with ultra thin underlayer, crystalline orientation of CoCrTa was improved rather underlayer thickness 1nm, it was expected that amorphous Si layer played a important role in not only underlayer but also seed layer.t also seed layer.r.

  • Various organic acid were used in order to prepare new metalorganic deposition solution for high quality $REBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (RE=Y, Eu, Gd) films. Prepared fluorine free MO precursor solution was coated on single crystal (001) $LaAlO_3$ (LAO) by dip coating method. Processing parameters such as oxygen partial pressure, water vapor, ramping rate and pyrolysis temperature etc havebeen controlled in order to make high $J_c$ films with a good epitaxial relationship with substrate. 0.5 micron-thick film was obtained by single coating and no crack appeared after calcination. Oxygen partial pressure was varied in the range of $100{\sim}1,000 ppm$ and conversion heat treatment was carried out at the temperature of $725{\sim}765^{\circ}C$. A critical transition temperature $(T_{c0})$ of 90K and a critical transport current density $(J_c)$ of $>0.5MA/cm^2$ (77K and self-field) were demonstrated for the YBCO film on (001) oriented LAO substrates with a thickness of 0.5 micron. $I_c$ was determined by utilizing a transport measurement. SEM and XRD investigations confirmed that films were grown epitaxially onto the LAO single crystal substrate. It is thought that fluorine free new MOD solutionis promising for high quality REBCO films.
