  • This report is concerned with the fahrication with the falricationof silicon VVC diode by the double diffusion planer technique. At first, some design charts for VVC diode were derived by considering the voltage-capacitance relations, the critical field intensity at the metallurgical junction, and the cut-off frequency of the diode. These charts enables the fabrication engineers to design VVC diode easily without going into the sophisticated design theory. We started with a 2.5 ohm-cm n-type epitaxial silicon wafer. The phosphorous was diffused by POCl3 impurity source. Then boron diffusion followed make hyperabrupt p-n junction by BN source. The maximum to minimum capacitance ratio of the diode as a tuning diode for a TV tuner made in these experiments was 4:1. Measured electrical characteristics of the sample diodes showed in good agreement with the theoretical expectations. Slicing and polishing technique of the silicon wafer and diffusion technique of the impurity atoms, which were employed in our study, are also stated briefly in this report.

  • In this study, we investigated the growth of single-crystallinity α-Ga2O3 thin films on c-plane sapphire substrates using halide vapor pressure epitaxy. We also found the optimal growth conditions to suppress the phase transition of α-Ga2O3. Our results confirmed that the growth temperature and partial pressure of the reactive gas greatly influenced the crystallinity. The optimal growth temperature range was about 460~510℃, and the α-Ga2O3 thin films with the highest crystallinity were obtained at a III/VI ratio of 4. The thickness and surface morphology of the thin films was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The film thickness was 6.938 ㎛, and the full width at half maximum of the ω-2θ scan rocking curve was as small as 178 arcsec. The optical band gap energy obtained was 5.21 eV, and the films were almost completely transparent in the near-ultraviolet and visible regions. The etch pit density was found to be as low as about 6.0 × 104 cm-2.

  • The hetero-epitaxial growth of AmB v type onto-electronic material is attempted by means of the laser-induced chemical vapour deposition technique. The bimolecular gas phase reaction of trimethylgallium with ammonia on (001) alumina substrate for the epitaxy of gallium nitride is chosen as a model system. In this study, ArF exciter laser (193nm) is employed as a photon source. Marked difference is found in nucleation and in subsequent crystal incorporation between the doposits formed with and without the laser-irradiation. The surface coverage with isomorphically grown drystallites is pronounced upon "volume-excited" irradiation in comparison with the conventional thermal process. As to the crystal structure of the grown layers, the laser-induced deposits of GaN may be represented by either of the following two models: (001) plane of sapphire //y (001) plane of wurtzite-type GaN, OR (001) plane of sapphire//(001) plane of wurtzite-type-GaN (111) plane of twinned zinc blende-type GaN.

  • YIG $(Y_3Fe_5O_{12})$ films with 4~80 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thickness were epitaxially grown on GGG $(Gd_3Ga_5O_{12})$ substrates by LPE (liquid phase epitaxy) techniques. Using various melts having different chemical composition the growth temperature was varied as a parameter. Growth rate, surface morphology, chemical composition, lattice constant, saturation magnetization, and magnetic resonance of the films were investigated. Lattice mismatch between the substrate and film Δa, saturation magnetization, and magnetic resonance line width ΔH increased, decreased, and increased, respectively, as undercooling temperature ΔT increased. The films grown by using the melt with larger R$_1$and smaller R$_3$had smaller ΔH. The major origin of the increase of ΔH was the increase of Δa. It is considered that the magnetic field in the film became locally inhomogeneous with the increase of Δa due to the increase of inhomogenity in stress distribution to the film depth direction. Therefore, in order to grow YIG films with small microwave loss it is necessary to grow films at small ΔT using the melt with large R$_1$and small R$_3$resulting in a small Δa.

  • 다이아몬드는 지구상에서 가장 단단한 물질로 잘 알려져 있을 뿐만 아니라 공업적 측면에서 볼 때, 여러 가지 특출한 성질들을 동시에 지니고 있다. 인장강도, 압축강도, 탄성계수 등 기계적 특성이 우수하고 넓은 광투과성과 내열, 내화학, 내방사성을 지니고 있으며, 열전도율이 높고 전기적으로 절연체이다. 또한 hole이동도가 높고 도핑에 의해서 반도체적 특성을 나타낸다. 이와 같이 매우 뛰어난 성질을 공업적으로 응용하기 위하여 이전부터 많은 연구가 행해져 왔으며, 1980년대에 들어와 박막이나 코팅 형태로의 합성이 가능한 기상합성법이 큰 발전을 보임으로써 다이아몬드의 우수한 특성을 여러 분야에서 폭넓게 응용할 수 있게 되었다. 특히 마찰 응용분야에 최적의 재료로 추천되고 있다. 지금도 Epitaxial 다이이몬드를 기지 위에 성장시키고 다결정질박막을 여러 가지 비다이아몬드(Si, W, Mo 등) 기지 위에 성장시키는 연구가 계속되고 있으며 공구강 위엥 경질코팅으로써 한층 개선된 다이아몬드박막 제조를 위한 수많은 연구노력들이 집중되고 있다. 그러나 일반탄소강에 다이아몬드박막을 성장시키기 위한 많은 노력들은 크게 바람직하지 않은 non-diamond carbon(black carbon or graphitic soot)의 형성 때문에 방해를 받고 있다. 계면에서 이들의 형성은 증착된 다이아몬드박막과 금속기지의 저조한 밀착력을 나타내게 된다. 이외 같이 다이아몬드박막의 응용을 위하여 다이아몬드피막에 요구되는 중요한 조건은 기지에 대해서 강한 밀착력을 나타내는 것이며, 동시에 상대물에 대하여 낮은 마찰계수를 가져야 한다. 그러나 다이아몬드와 금속기지는 서로 다른 열챙창계수(각각 0.87$\times$10-6K-1, 12$\times$10-6K-1)의 차이로 인하여 밀착력이 현저히 떨어진다는 단점으로 인해 산업화에 많은 제약을 받아왔다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 다이아몬드박막과 금속기지 사이에 중간층을 이용하는 방법을 제안하였다. 이러한 시도는 일반적으로 중간층 형성 금속인 Ti 또는 TiN 등이 적용되었으나 원하는 결과를 얻지 못하였다. 즉 carbon과 Fe의 상호확산, non-diamond carbon상의 형성 그리고 열잔류응력을 완화시키고 일반탄소강 위에 다이아몬드박막을 형성시켜 우수한 밀착력을 얻기 위한 목적에 미흡하였던 것이다. 이에 중간층으로 Cr 또는 Cr계 화합물 박막을 이용하였는 바, 이 중간층을 이용한 결과 우수한 밀착력을 나타내는 다이아몬드박막을 얻었으며 열적, 구조저으로 모재와 다이아몬드에 적합한 결과를 얻을 수 있었다. 본 연구에 의해 얻어진 결과들은 재료 가공을 위하여 높은 경도와 내마모성등이 요구되는 절삭공구나 금형의 수명 향항에 크게 기여할 것이며 산업적으로 큰 응용이 기대된다.

  • Epitaxial $CuCrO_2$ thin films have been grown on single crystal substrate of c-plane $Al_2O_3$, $SrTiO_3$, YSZ and Quarts by laser ablation of a $CuCrO_2$ target using 266nm radiation from a Nd:YAG laser. X-ray measurements indicate that the $CuCrO_2$ grows epitaxially on all substrate, with its orientation dependent on the kinds of substrates. Most of the layer were polycrystalline with (001), (015) and random as the dominant surface orientation on c-plane YSZ, $SrTiO_3$ and quarts substrate, respectively. (001) orientated $CuCrO_2$ grows on C-plane $Al_2O_3$ and YSZ substrate, (015) orientated $CuCrO_2$ films are found on c-plane $SrTiO_3$ substrate and random orientated $CuCrO_2$ films grows on quarts substrate. These data are compared with the in-plane orientation and the mismatch of the $CuCrO_2$ and each substrate lattices in an attempt to relate the preferred orientation to the plane of the sapphire on which it is grown. Further characterization show that the grain size of the films increases for a substrate temperature increase, whereas the electrical properties of $CuCrO_2$ thin films depend upon their crystalline orientation.

  • An epitaxial GaN layer was grown on a cone-shape-patterned sapphire substrate (PSS) (Sample A) and an AlN-buffered PSS (Sample B) with two growth steps under the same process conditions by employing the hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method. We have investigated the characteristics of the GaN layer grown on two kinds of substrates at each growth step. The cross-sectional SEM image of the GaN layer grown on the two types of substrates showed growth states of GaN layers formed during the 1st and 2nd growth steps with different growth durations. Dislocation density was obtained by calculation using the FWHM value of the rocking curve for (002) and (102). Sample A showed 2.62+08E and 6.66+08E and sample B exhibited 5.74+07E and 1.65+08E for two different planes. The red shift was observed is photoluminescence (PL) analysis and Raman spectroscopy results. GaN layers grown on AlN-buffered PSS exhibited better optical and crystallographic properties than GaN layers grown on PSS.

  • Capacitive pressure sensor for low pressure measurements has been fabricated by using $n^{+}$ epitaxial layer electrochemical etching stop and glass-to-silicon electrostatic bonding technique. The sensor had hybrid configuration of a sensor chip, which consists of sensor capacitor and reference capacitor, and two output signal detection IC chips. A fabricated sensor, with a $1.0{\times}1.0 mm^{2}$ square size and a $10{\mu}m$ thick flat diaphragm, showed a 7.1 pF zero pressure capacitance, and 5.2 % F.S, sensitivity in 10 KPa pressure range. By using a capacitance to voltage converter, the thermal zero shift of 0.051 %F.S./$^{\circ}C$ and the thermal sensitivity shift of 0.12 %F.S./$^{\circ}C$ for temperature range of $5{\sim}45^{\circ}C$ were obtained.

  • [ $GdAlO_3(GAO)$ ] buffer layer for $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}(YBCO)$ coated superconductor wire was fabricated by sol-gel processing. Precursor solution was prepared by dissolving 1:1 stoichiometric quantaties of gadolinium nitrate hexahydrate and aluminum nitrate nonahydrate in methanol. The solution was spin-coated on $SrTiO_3(STO)$(100) single crystal substrates and heated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 2h in wet $N_2-5%\; H_2$, atmosphere. A SEM(scanning electron microscopy) observation of the surface morphology of the GAO layer has shown that it has a faceted morphology indicating epitaxy. It was shown from x-ray diffraction(XRB) that GAO buffer layer was highly c-axis oriented epitaxial thin film with both good out-of-plane($FWHM=0.29^{\circ}$ for the (002) reflection) and in-plane ($FWHM=1.10^{\circ}$ for the {112} reflection) alignment.
