The Chemical Doping of epitaxial graphene (EG) due to p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene was investigated using high resolution photoemission spectroscopy (HRPES). The measured work function changes verified that increased adsorption of the p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene on EG showed p-type doping characteristics due to charge transfer from the graphene to the p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene through the hydroxyl group. A single oxygen bonding feature associated with the O 1s peak was clearly observed in the core-level spectra, indicating the presence of one equivalent adsorption state.

The structural characteristics of an epitaxial $BaTiO_3$ film on MgO(001) grown by sputtering were studied as a function of temperature using in-situ, real time synchrotron x-ray scattering experiments. We found that the as-grown film was single c-domain but strained at room temperature and tetragonally distorted with the c-axis normal to the film surface. Interestingly, its lattice parameters were found to be expanded in both the in-plane and the out-of -plane directions, i.e. biaxially, comparing with those of a bulk $BaTiO_3$ . More importantly, as it was heated up to $600^{\circ}C$, the tetragonal structure was kept up through without and any phase transition, which is usually observed in other epitaxial ferroelectric thin films.

The epitaxial layer structures for blue InGaN light emitting diodes have been optimized for high brightness applications with the output power levels exceeding 1000 $W/cm^2$ by using a self-consistent finite element method. The light-current-voltage relationship has been directly estimated from the multiband Hamiltonian for wurtzite crystals. To analyze the efficiency droop at high injection levels, the major nonradiative recombination processes and carrier spillover have also been taken into account. The wall-plug efficiency at high injection levels up to several thousand $A/cm^2$ has been successfully evaluated for various epilayer structures facilitating optimization of the epitaxial structures for desired output power levels.

Two step growth of reduced pressure chemical vapor eposition has been successfully developed to achieve in-situ phosphorus-doped silicon epilayers, and the characteristic evolution on their microstructures has been investigated using scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and secondary ion mass spectroscopy. The two step growth, which employs heavily in-situ P doped silicon buffer layer grown at low temperature, proposes crucial advantages in manipulating crystal structures of in-situ phosphorus doped silicon. In particular, our experimental results showed that with annealing of the heavily P doped silicon buffer layers, high-quality epitaxial silicon layers grew on it. the heavily doped phosphorus in buffer layers introduces into native oxide and plays an important role in promoting the dispersion of native oxides. Furthermore, the phosphorus doping concentration remains uniform depth distribution in high quality single crystalline Si films obtained by the two step growth.

High quality epitaxial Y2O3 thin films were prepared on Si(111) and (001) substaretes by using ion beam assisted deposition. As a substrate, clean and chemically oxidized Si wafers were used and the effects of surface state on the film crystallinity were investigated. The crystalline quality of the films were estimated by x-ray scattering, rutherford backscattering spectroscopy/channeling, and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The interaction between Y and Si atoms interfere the nucleation of Y2O3 at the initial growth stage, it could be suppressed by the interface SiO2 layer. Therefore, SiO2 layer of the 4-6 layers, which have been known for hindering the crystal growth, could rather enhance the nucleation of the Y2O3 , and the high quality epitaxial film could be grown successfully. Electrical properties of Y2O3 films on Si(001) were measured by C-V and I-V, which revealed that the oxide trap charge density of the film was 1.8$\times$10-8C/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and the breakdown field strength was about 10MV/cm.

Molecular layer deposition (MLD) is sequential, self-limiting surface reaction to form conformal and ultrathin polymer film. This technique generally uses bifunctional precursors for stepwise sequential surface reaction and entirely organic polymer films. Also, in comparison with solution-based technique, because MLD is vapor-phase deposition based on ALD, it allows epitaxial growth of molecular layer on substrate and is especially good for surface reaction or coating of nanostructure such as nanopore, nanochannel, nanwire array and so on. In this study, polyurea film that consisted of phenylenediisocyanate and phenylenediamine was formed by MLD technique. In situ Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) measurement on high surface area SiO2 substrate was used to monitor the growth of polyurethane and polyurea film. Also, to investigate orientation of chemical bonding formed polymer film, plan-polarized grazing angle FTIR spectroscopy was used and it showed epitaxial growth and uniform orientation of chemical bones of polyurea films.

In this paper, we show that the growth rate of MBE GaAs epitaxial layer is controlled entirely by the flux density of the Ga beam, impinging on the substrate surface, and is linearly proportional to the Ga effusion cell temperature and the growth time. According to our investigation of the epitaxial layer surfvace through RHEED, AES, SIMS and SEM, if the growth temperature is maintained above 590\ulcorner, the surface crystal structure, flathness and stoichiometry become significantly enhanced, and the epilayer surface has a smooth mirror-like appearance.

The thermal behavior and the crystallographic characteristics of an epitaxial $C49-TiSi_2$ island formed in a Si (001) substrate by $N_2$, treatment were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). It was found from the analyzed results that the epitaxial $C49-TiSi_2$ was thermally stable even at high temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$ therefore did not transform into the C54-stable phase and did not deform morphologically. HRTEM results clearly showed that the epitaxial $TiSi_2$ phase and Si have the orientation relationship of (060)[001]$TiSi_2$//(002)[110]Si, and the lattice strain energy at the interface was mostly relaxed by the formation of misfit dislocations. Furthermore, the mechanism on the formation of the epitaxial $_C49-TiSi2$ in Si and stacking faults lying on the (020) plane of the C49 Phase were discussed through the analysis of the HRTEM image and the atomic modeling.

One-dimensional semiconductor nanowires and nanorods have attracted increasing interest due to their unique physical properties and diversity for potential electronic and photonic device applications., Unlike the conventional nanowires fabricated by metal catalyst-assisted vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method, we developed metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxial (MOVPE) growth for which no catalyst is needed. The structural and photoluminecent properties will also be discussed. (omitted)
