In this paper, the strained Si$_{0.9}$Ge$_{0.1}$ epitaxial layers grown by a reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition (RPCVD) on Si (100) were characterized by Rutherford backscattering spectrometery (RBS) for the fabrication of an SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistor(HBT). RBS spectra of the ${Si}_0.9{Ge}_0.1$epitaxial layers grown on the Si substrates which were implanted with the phosphorus (P) ion and annealed at a temperature between $850^{\circ}C$ - $1000^{\circ}C$ for 30min were analyzed to investigate the post thermal annealing effect on the grown${Si}_0.9{Ge}_0.1$epitaxial layer quality. Although a damage of the substrates by P ion-implantation might be cause of the increase of RBS yield ratios, but any defects such as dislocation or stacking fault in the grown ${Si}_0.9{Ge}_0.1$ epitaxial layer were not found in transmission electron microscope (TEM) photographs. The post high temperature rapid thermal annealing (RTA) effects on the crystalline quality of the ${Si}_0.9{Ge}_0.1$ epitaxial layers were also analyzed by RBS. The changes in the RBS yield ratios were negligible for RTA a temperature between $900^{\circ}C$ - $1000^{\circ}C$for 20 sec, or $950^{\circ}C$for 20 sec - 60 sec. A SiGe HBT array shows a good Gummel characteristics with post RTA at $950^{\circ}C$ for 20 sec.sec.sec.

$Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CuO_{x}$(Bi-2201) thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion bearn sputtering method. 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mixed with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. At early stages of the atomic layer by layer deposition. two dimensional epitaxial growth which covers the substrate surface would be suppressed by the stress and strain caused by the lattice misfit. then three dimensional growth takes place. Since Cu element is the most difficult to oxidize. only Sr and Bi react with each other predominantly. and forms a buffer layer on the substrate in an amorphous-like structure. which is changed to $SrBi_{2}O_{4}$ by in-situ anneal.

The epitaxial graphene on the 4H- or 6H-SiC(0001) surface has been intensively studied due to the possibility of wafer-scale growt. However the existence of interface layer (zero layer graphene) and its influence on the upper graphene layer have been considered as one of the main obstarcles for the industrial application. Among various methods tried to overcome the strong interaction with the substrate through the interface layer, it has been proved that the hydrogen intercalation successfully passivate the Si dangling bond of the substrate and can produce the quasi-free standing epitaxial graphene (QFEG) layers on the siC(0001) surface. In this study, we report the results of the angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) and Raman spectroscopy for the QFEG layers produced by ex-situ and in-situ hydrogen intercalation.From the ARPES measurement, we confirmed that the Dirac points of QFEG layers exactly coincide with the Fermi level. The band structure of QFEG layer are sustainable upon thermal heating up to 1100 K and robust against the deposition of several metals andmolecular deposition. We also investigated the strain of the QFEG layers by using Raman spectroscopy measurement. From the change of the 2D peak position of graphene Raman spectrum, we found out that unlike the strong compressive strain in the normal epitaxial graphene on the SiC(0001) surface, the strain of the QFEG layer are significantly released and almost similar to that of the mechanically exfoliated graphene on the silicon oxide substrate. These results indicated that various ideas proposed for the ideal free-standing graphene can be tested based on the QFEG graphene layers grown on the SiC(0001) surface.

Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CuO$_{x}$(Bi-2201) thin films have been fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using ion beam sputtering(IBS) process. During the deposition, 14 wt%-ozone/oxygen mixture gas of typical pressure of 5.0$\times$10$^{-5}$ Torr is supplied with ultraviolet light irradiation for oxidation. XRD and RHEED investigations reveal that a buffer layer with compositions different from Bi-2201 is formed at the early deposition stage of less than 10 units cell and then Bi-2201 oriented along the c-axis is grown.n.

Most of heteroepitaxial $\beta$-SiC thin films have been successfully grown on Si(100) adapting a carburizing process, by which a few atomic layers of substrate surface is chemically converted to very thin SiC layer using hydrocarbon gas sources. Using an organo-silicon precursor, bis-trimethylsilymethane (BTMSM, [$C_7H_{20}Si_2$]), heteropitaxial $\beta$-SiC thin films were successfully grown directy on Si substrate without a carburized buffer layer. The defect density of the $\beta$-SiC thin films deposited without a carburized layer was as low as that of $\beta$-SiC films deposited on carburized buffer layer. In addition, void density was also reduced by the formation of self-buffer layer using BTMSM instead of carburized buffer layer. It seems to be mainly due to the characteristic bonding structure of BTMSM, in which Si-C was bonded alternately and tetrahedrally (SiC$_4$).

The crystal structure of the GaN film on the AIN buffer layer grown by R. F sputtering with different thickness has been studied using X-ray scattering and transmission electron microscopy(TEM). The interface roughness between the AIN buffer layer and the epitaxial GaN film, due to crossover from planar to island grains, produced edge dislocations. The strain, coming from lattice mismatch between the AIN buffer layer and the epitaxial GaN film, produced screw dislocations. The density of the edge and screw dislocation propagating from the interface between the GaN film and the AIN buffer layer affected the electric resistance of GaN film.

We have studied the properties of $GaAs_{0.35}P_{0.65}$ epitaxial films on the GaP according to doping of $NH_3$ gas using VPE method by CVD. The efficiency of $GaAs_{0.35}P_{0.65}$ epitaxial films found to be greatly enhanced by the according of nitrogen doping. The diodes were fabricated by means of Zn diffusion into vapor grown $GaAs_{0.35}P_{0.65}$ epitaxial films doped with N and Te. The effects of nitrogen doping on carrier density of epitaxial films, PL wavelength and the power out, forward voltage of diodes are discussed. In the end, The effect of electrical and optical properties is influenced by the deep level and deep level density of nitrogen doping.

Dislocation density and distribution in epitaxial GaAs layer on Si are evaluated quantitatively and effectively using image processing of transmission electron microscopy image. In order to evaluate dislocation density and distribution, three methods are introduced based on line-intercept, line-length measurement and our coding with line-scanning method. Our coding method based on line-scanning is used to detect the dislocations line-by-line effectively by sweeping a thin line with the width of one pixel. The proposed method has advances in the evaluation of dislocation density and distribution. Dislocations can be detected automatically and continuously by a sweeping line in the code. Variation of dislocation density in epitaxial GaAs films can be precisely analyzed along the growth direction on the film.

Impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy was applied to study the geometrical structure of epitaxially grown TiO layers on the MgO(100) surface. Hetero-epitaxial TiO layer was formed by thermal evaporation of titanium onto the MgO(100) surface followed by the exposure to oxygen at $400{\circ}$. The well-ordered TiO structure was confirmed by the impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy and reflection high energy electron diffraction patterns. It is revealed that the Ti and O atoms are located on the on-top site of the MgO(100) surface and the TiO overlayers are composed of little three dimensional islands.
