$2-\mu{m}$ thick GaN epilayer was prepared, and 80 KeV $Co^{-}$ ions with a dose of $3X10^{16}\;cm^{-2}$ were implanted into GaN at $350^{\circ}C$. The implanted samples were post annealed at $700^{\circ}C$. We have investigated the magnetic and structural properties of Co ion-implanted GaN by various measurements. HRXRD results did not show any peaks associated with second phase formation and only the diffraction from the GaN layer and substrate structure were observed. SIMS profiles of Co implanted into GaN before and after annealing at $700^{\circ}C$ have shown a projected range of $\sim390\AA$ with 7.4% concentration and that there is little movement in Co. AFM measurement shows the form of surface craters for $700^{\circ}C$-annealed samples. The magnetization curve and temperature dependence of magnetization taken in zero-field-cooling (ZFC) and field-cooling (FC) conditions showed the features of superparamagnetic system in film. XPS measurement showed the metallic Co 2p core levels spectra for $700^{\circ}C$-annealed samples. From this, it could be explained that magnetic property of our films originated from Co magnetic clusters.

The ~1540 nm $^4$ $I_{13}$ 2/ longrightarro $w^4$ $I_{15}$ 2/ emissions of E $r^{3+}$ in Er-implanted GaN annealed at temperatures in the 400 to 100$0^{\circ}C$ range were investigated to gain a better understanding of the formation and dissociation processes of the various E $r^{3+}$ sites and the recovery of damage caused by the implantation with increasing annealing temperature ( $T_{A}$).The monotonic increase in the intensity of the broad defect photoluminescence(PL) bands with incresing $T_{A}$ proves that these are stable radiative recombination centers introduced by the implantation and annealing process. Theser centers cannot be attributed to implantation-induced damage that is removed by post-implantation annealing. Selective wavelength pumpling of PL spectra at 6K reveals the existence of at least nine different E $r^{3+}$ sites in this Er-implanted semiconductor. Most pf these E $r^{3+}$ PL centers are attributed to complexed of Er atoms with defects and impurities which are thermally activated at different $T_{A}$. Only one of the nine observed E $r^{3+}$ PL centers can be pumped by direct 4f absorption and this indicates that it is highest concentration E $r^{3+}$ center and it represents most of the optically active E $r^{3+}$ in the implanted sample. The fact that this E $r^{3+}$ center cannot be strongly pumped by above-gap light or broad band below-gap absorption indicates that it is an isolated center, i.e not complexed with defects or impurities, The 4f-pumped P: spectrum appears at annealing temperatures as low as 40$0^{\circ}C$, and although its intensity increase monotonically with increasing $T_{A}$ the wavelengths and linewidths of its characteristic peaks asre unaltered. The observation of this high quality E $r_{3+}$PL spectrum at low annealing temperatures illustrates that the crystalline structure of GaN is not rendered amorphous by the ion implantation. The increase of the PL intensities of the various E $R_{3+}$sites with increasing $T_{A}$is due to the removal of competing nonradiative channels with annealing. with annealing.annealing.

ZnO with wurtzite structure has a wide band gap of 3.37 eV. Because ZnO has a direct band gap and a large exciton binding energy, it has higher optical efficiency and thermal stability than the GaN material of blue light emitting devices. To fabricate ZnO devices with optical and thermal advantages, n-type and p-type doping are needed. Many research groups have devoted themselves to fabricating stable p-type ZnO. In this study, $As^+$ ion was implanted using an ion implanter to fabricate p-type ZnO. After the ion implant, rapid thermal annealing (RTA) was conducted to activate the arsenic dopants. First, the structural and optical properties of the ZnO thin films were investigated for as-grown, as-implanted, and annealed ZnO using FE-SEM, XRD, and PL, respectively. Then, the structural, optical, and electrical properties of the ZnO thin films, depending on the As ion dose variation and the RTA temperatures, were analyzed using the same methods. In our experiment, p-type ZnO thin films with a hole concentration of $1.263{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$ were obtained when the dose of $5{\times}10^{14}$ As $ions/cm^2$ was implanted and the RTA was conducted at $850^{\circ}C$ for 1 min.

SOI (Silicon On insulator)는 SiO$_2$와 같은 절연체 위에 실리콘 (Si) 박막층이 놓여있는 구조로서 전자나 광소자들이 실리콘 박막층 위에 만들어진다. SOI의 기본적인 생각은 기생 정전용량 (parasitic capacitance)을 감소시킴으로서 소자의 스위칭 속도를 더 빠르게 하는 것이다. 최근에 초고속 광소자와 단위 광소자들의 집적을 위해 실리콘 이외의 GaAs, InP, SiC 등의 반도체 박막을 절연층 위에 만드는 연구가 많이 진행되고있다. (중략)

$SiO_2$ 패시베이션 층에 As+ 이온을 주입한 1.2 kV급 AlGaN/GaN 쇼트키 장벽 다이오드( Schottky Barrier Diode, SBD )를 제작하였다. 주입된 As+ 이온들은 역방향 바이어스에서 공핍 영역의 곡률을 변화 시켰고, 이로 인해 항복 전압이 증가하고 누설 전류가 감소하였다. 제안된 소자의 항복전압이 1204 V 이었고, 기존 소자의 항복전압은 604 V 이었다. 캐소드 전압이 100 V일 때 제안된 소자의 누설전류는 21.2 nA/mm 이었고, 같은 조건에서 제안된 소자는 $80.3{\mu}A/mm$ 이었다. 주입된 As+ 양이온은 이차원 전자 가스( Two-Dimensional Electron Gas, 2DEG )에 전자를 유도했고, 채널의 농도가 미세하게 증가하였다. 따라서 순방향 전류가 증가하였다.

In this paper, we review the technical trends of diamond and gallium oxide ($Ga_2O_3$) semiconductor technologies among ultra-wide bandgap semiconductor technologies for harsh environments. Diamond exhibits some of the most extreme physical properties such as a wide bandgap, high breakdown field, high electron mobility, and high thermal conductivity, yet its practical use in harsh environments has been limited owing to its scarcity, expense, and small-sized substrate. In addition, the difficulty of n-type doping through ion implantation into diamond is an obstacle to the normally-off operation of transistors. $Ga_2O_3$ also has material properties such as a wide bandgap, high breakdown field, and high working temperature superior to that of silicon, gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, silicon carbide, and so on. In addition, $Ga_2O_3$ bulk crystal growth has developed dramatically. Although the bulk growth is still relatively immature, a 2-inch substrate can already be purchased, whereas 4- and 6-inch substrates are currently under development. Owing to the rapid development of $Ga_2O_3$ bulk and epitaxy growth, device results have quickly followed. We look briefly into diamond and $Ga_2O_3$ semiconductor devices and epitaxy results that can be applied to harsh environments.

As the feature size of Si-based semiconductor shrinks to nanometer scale, we are facing to the problems such as short channel effect and leakage current. One of the solutions to cope with those issues is to bring III-V compound semiconductors to the semiconductor structures, because III-V compound semiconductors have much higher carrier mobility than Si. However, introduction of III-V semiconductors to the current Si-based manufacturing process requires great challenge in the development of process integration, since they exhibit totally different physical and chemical properties from Si. For example, epitaxial growth, surface preparation and wet etching of III-V semiconductors have to be optimized for production. In addition, oxidation mechanisms of III-V semiconductors should be elucidated and re-growth of native oxide should be controlled. In this study, surface preparation methods of various III-V compound semiconductors such as GaAs, InAs, and GaSb are introduced in terms of i) how their surfaces are modified after different chemical treatments, ii) how they will be re-oxidized after chemical treatments, and iii) is there any effect of surface orientation on the surface preparation and re-growth of oxide. Surface termination and behaviors on those semiconductors were observed by MIR-FTIR, XPS, ellipsometer, and contact angle measurements. In addition, photoresist stripping process on III-V semiconductor is also studied, because there is a chance that a conventional photoresist stripping process can attack III-V semiconductor surfaces. Based on the Hansen theory various organic solvents such as 1-methyl-2-pyrrolydone, dimethyl sulfoxide, benzyl alcohol, and propylene carbonate, were selected to remove photoresists with and without ion implantation. Although SPM and DIO3 caused etching and/or surface roughening of III-V semiconductor surface, organic solvents could remove I-line photoresist without attack of III-V semiconductor surface. The behavior of photoresist removal depends on the solvent temperature and ion implantation dose.

This thesis was investigated on ion-induced characteristics in a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$ positive and negative resists for focused-ion-beam microlithogaphy. The exposed a-$Se_{75}Ge_{25}$ inorganic thin film shows an increase in optical absorption after exposure to~$10_{16}$ dose of Ga+. The observed shift in the absorption edge toward longer wavelengths is consistent with that in films exposed to band-gap photons(~$10^{21}$photons/cm2). This result may be related with microstructural rearrangements with in the short range of SeGe network. Due to changes in the short range order, the chemical bonding may be affected, which results in increased chemical dissolution in ion-induced film. Also, this resist exhibits good thermal stability because of its high Tg(~$220^{\circ}C$). When focused ion beams are used for direct exposure of resist over a substrate, unwanted implantation of the substrate may be an issue. A possible way to avoid this is to match the thickness of the resist to the range of ions in the resist. Thin aspect is currently under investigation.

Gallium Oxide (Ga₂O₃) is preferred as a material for next generation power semiconductors. The Ga₂O₃ should solve the disadvantages of low thermal resistance characteristics and difficulty in forming an inversion layer through p-type ion implantation. However, Ga₂O₃ is difficult to inject p-type ions, so it is being studied in a heterojunction structure using p-type oxides, such as NiO, SnO, and Cu₂O. Research the lateral-type FET structure of NiO/Ga₂O₃ heterojunction under the Gate contact using the Sentaurus TCAD simulation. At this time, the VG-ID and VD-ID curves were identified by the thickness of the Epi-region (channel) and the doping concentration of NiO of 1×10¹⁷ to 1×10¹⁹ cm-3. The increase in Epi region thickness has a lower threshold voltage from -4.4 V to -9.3 V at I_D = 1×10^-8 mA/mm, as current does not flow only when the depletion of the PN junction extends to the Epi/Sub interface. As an increase of NiO doping concentration, increases the depletion area in Ga₂O₃ region and a high electric field distribution on PN junction, and thus the breakdown voltage increases from 512 V to 636 V at I_D =1×10^-3 A/mm.

Bulk반절연 기판 웨이퍼에 이온 주입법에 의한 기존의 GaAs집적회로 제작시 발생하는 문제점을 보완하고자 반절연 기판 위에 반절연성의 고저항 GaAs 에피층을 성장하는 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저 반절연 기판의 EPD분포를 조사하고, MOCVD와 MBE법을 이용하여 undeped GaAs반절연성 에피층을 성장시켜 실제 집적회로의 제작에 적합한지를 평가하였다. 평가방법은 반절연성 에피\ulcorner을 buffer층으로 성장시킨 에피 기판에 ungated FET를 제작하여, 이 반절연성 에피\ulcorner을 통한 누설전류를 측정하고, 또한 반절연 기판의 EP분호의 영향을 조사하였다. 누설 전류의 측정결과 비교적 주설 전류가 큰 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 MOCVD시료에서도 270nA/mm로 FET의 pinch-off에는 영향을 주지 못하는 매우 작은 누설 전류 값을 나타내었다. 또한 누설전류의 분포가 반절연 기판의 EPD분포와 일치하는 것을 발견하여, 에피층의 quality에 기판의 결함이 미치는 영향을 확인하였다. MBE법으로 성장한 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ 두께의 undoped burrer층 시료는 휠씬 좋은 특성을 나타내었으며, 매우 균일하고 낮은 누설전류(40nA/mm)가 측정되었다.
