In this study, zinc germanate ($Zn_2GeO_4$) thin films has been synthesized by using radio frequency magnetron sputtering and the divalent manganese-activated luminescence was characterized. X-ray diffraction patterns of the as-deposited $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn films showed only a broad feature, indicative of an amorphous structure. Scanning electron microscopy images revealed that the as-deposited $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn has a smooth surface morphology. The $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn films were found to be crystallized by annealing in air ambient at temperatures as low as $700^{\circ}C$. The annealed $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn possessed a rhombohedral polycrystalline structure. The broad-band photoluminescent emission spectrum from 470 to 650nm was obtained at room temperature from the $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn films. The emission peak was centered at around 535nm in the green range, which originates from the intrashell transition of manganese $3d^5$ electrons from $^4T_1$ excited-state level to the $^6A_1$ ground state. The PL emission spectrum had an asymmetric line shape, which results from the $^3d_5$ electron transitions of divalent manganese ions located at different sites of the zinc germanate host crystal lattice. Electroluminescent devices were fabricated using $Zn_2GeO_4$:Mn as an emission layer. The fabricated devices showed a green EL emission similar to the PL emission. The CIE chromaticity color coordinates of the EL emission were determined to be x=0.308 and y=0.657.

Silica glass films to utilize optical waveguides was fabricated by Aerosol Flame Deposition(AFD) method. As the amount of B2O3 increased in the sol solution of (92-x)SiO2-xB2O3-8P2O5, the thermophoretic deposition rate onto Si substrate was markedly lowered due to vaporizing out of B2O3 and P2O5 during the vaporization and reaction of the aerosol in the flame. GeO2 was added to 62SiO2-30B2O3-8P2O5 in order to control easily the refractive index of glass films. As the amount of GeO2 increased from 2 to 12 wt%, its refractive index increased from 1.4633 up to 1.4716.

질소 등을 GST225 상변화재료에 첨가시켜 비저항을 증가시킴으로서 PCRAM의 동작 전류를 감소시킨 연구가 선행된 바 있다. 본 연구에서는 GST225와 달리 고속 동작 특성을 갖는 것으로 널리 알려진 Ge-doped SbTe (GeST) 상변화 재료에 Carbon을 첨가하여 박막 특성을 연구하여 동작 전류 감소의 가능성을 타진하였다. 실험을 위한 박막 제작을 위해 2 inch size의 GeST 및 C doped GeST (C-GeST) single target을 이용하여 RF magnetron co-sputtering 하였다. 박막은 carbon이 첨가되지 않은 GeST와 carbon 첨가량이 늘어나는 순서로 C-GeST 1, C-GeST 2, C-GeST 3로 구성된다. 이 때 제작한 박막의 composition analysis를 위해 XRF/RBS/AES가 사용되었고 제작된 박막의 기본적인 특성평가를 위해 resistivity(${\rho}$)와 crystallzation temp.(Cx), surface morphology(AFM), x-ray diffraction pattern(XRD)를 측정하였다. 실험결과 GeST, C-GeST 1, C-GeST 2, C-GeST 3 박막의 Cx는 각각 209, 225, 233, $245^{\circ}C$로 측정되어 carbon 첨가량이 증가됨에 따라 결정화 온도가 증가되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 또한 ${\rho}$도 마찬가지로 annealing 온도를 약 $320^{\circ}C$로 할 경우 ${\rho}$(as-dep)와 ${\rho}$(crystalline) 모두 0.03 / $2.61*10^{-6}$, 0.08 / $7.93*10^{-6}$, 0.09 / $11.99*10^{-6}$, 0.13 / $13.49*10^{-6}{\Omega}{\cdot}m$로 증가하였다. 증가된 ${\rho}$의 원인이 박막의 grain size의 감소라고 단언 할 수는 없으나 AFM 측정결과 grain이라고 추측되는 박막 feature들의 size가 점차 감소하는 것을 확인하였다.

A new frequency weighing sensor was applied to grow Bi12GeO20 crystals in the auto-di-ameter control system of Czochralski method. The rotation rate was varied in the range of 23 to 21 rpm to preserve flat interface in a given heat configuration. To prevent the constitutional super-cooling from the evaporation loss, 105% stoichiometric amount of Bi2O3 was employed, equivalent to 6.18 molar ratio of Bi2O3 to GeO2. Transparent and light brown Bi12GeO20 single crystal in uniform diameter was grown. The dislocation density was determined to be 103/cm2 corresponding to the optical quality in commercial applications. The grown crystal measured diameter 25 mm and length 70 mm and the preferred growth direction was confirmed to be <110>.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{0.95}Ge_{0.95}Fe_{0.1}O_3$ were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Our sample has orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants are a = 4.795 $\AA$, b = 8.472 $\AA$, c = 2.932 $\AA$. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperatures of our sample is 13 K. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ions. The Zeeman sextets come from tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions and the doublets come from octahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrupole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted related with the atomic displacements. The N el temperature is 715 K, the Debye temperature are 540 K for octahedral site and 380 K for tetrahedral site, respectively.

An X-ray Free Electron laser facility (PAL-XFEL) has been built in Pohang Accelerator Laboratory to provide X-ray FEL radiations for photon users. The machine consists of a 10 GeV normalconducting S-band linear accelerator and two undulator beamlines. The hard and soft X-ray beamlines will provide FEL radiations with wavelengths of 0.6 to 0.1 nm and 4.5 to 1 nm, respectively. Beam commissioning of PAL-XFEL is ongoing and user service will start in 2017. In this report, the PAL-XFEL layout and the working principle are discussed.

The tetragonal tungsten bronze type of Sr$_{x}Ba_{1-x}Nb_{2}O_{6}$(SBN) (0.3$\le$x$\ge$0.7) ceramics was synthesized by the solid state reaction method, and the dielectric properties of SBN ceramics as a function of Sr/Ba ratio were examined. With increasing Sr/Ba ratio in SBN ceramics, the Curie temperature decreased and the maximum dielectric constant at the Curie temperature increased. The relaxor behavior of the SBN ceramics as a function of Sr/Ba ratio was quantitatively evaluated. More relaxor behavior of dielectric characteristics was observed as the ratio of Sr/Ba increased. The experimental results are explained with a viewpoint of crystallography of tungsten bronze structured SBN ceramics.

In this paper, we study the third order ordinary differential equation : $$x'(t)=f(t,x(t),x'(t),x'(t)),t{\in}(0,1)$$ subject to the boundary value conditions: $$x'(0)=x'(\xi),x'(1)=^{m-3}{\Sigma}_{i=1}{{\beta}x'({\eta}i),x'(1)=0}$$. Here ${\beta}_{i}{\in}R,\;^{m-3}{\Sigma}_{i=1}\;{\beta}_{i}\;=\;1,\;0<{\eta}_1<{\eta}_2<{\cdots}<{\eta}_{m-3}<1,\;0<\xi<1$. This is the case dimKer L = 2. When the ${\beta}_i$ have different signs, we prove some existence results for the m-point boundary value problem at resonance by use of the coincidence degree theory of Mawhin [12, 13]. Since all the existence results obtained in previous papers are for the case dimKerL = 1, our work is new.

The ion beam system of 20keV C-W (Cockroft Walton) type composed of the AuGe alloy LMIS(Liquid Metal Ion Source) has been designed and constructed. For the fabrication of the ohmic contact to the n-GaAs, the ion beam extracted from the AuGe alloy source was implanted into the n-GaAs, and it was measured by contact resistivity. The stable AuGe ion beam(2.5\ulcorner/cm\ulcorner was obtained at the extraction voltage of 14.5kV. The measurements of the contact resistivity were done by the TLM (Transmission Line Model) method and the specific contact resistivity was found to be 2.4x10**-5 \ulcornercm\ulcornerfor the implanted sample by the 1.9x10**20/cm**3 and the annealed sample at 30\ulcorner for 2 min.

Thermal and structural stability in the glass transition region of chalcogenide glasses has been investigated in terms of thermodynamics for application to various optoelectronic devices. In this study, the compositions of $Ge_xSb_{20}Se_{80-x}$ (x = 10, 15, 20, 25, and 30) were selected to investigate the glass stability according to germanium ratios. The chalcogenide bulks were fabricated by using a traditional melt-quenching method. Thin films were deposited by a thermal evaporation system, maintaining the deposition ratio of $3{\sim}5{\AA}$ in order to have uniformity. The thermal and structural properties were measured by a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The DSC analysis provided thermal parameters and theoretical glass region stabilities. The XRD analysis supported the theoretical stabilities because of where the crystallization peak data occurred.
