  • We present simulation results on DC characteristics of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs having trench shaped source/drain Ohmic electrodes. In order to reduce the contact resistance in the source and drain region of the conventional AlGaN/GaN HEMTs and thereby to increase their DC output power, we applied narrow-shaped-trench electrode schemes whose size varies from $0.5{\mu}m$ to $1{\mu}m$ to the standard AlGaN/GaN HEMT structure. As a result, we found that the drain current was increased by 13 % at the same gate bias condition and the transconductance (gm) was improved by 11 % for the proposed AlGaN/GaN HEMT, compared with those of the conventional AlGaN/GaN HEMTs.

  • Field emission of GaN and GaP nanowires, synthesized by thermal chemical vapor deposition, and their emission stabilities under oxygen and argon environments were investigated. The field emission current of GaN nanowires was seriously deteriorated under oxygen environment, while that of GaP was not. Both wires did not show any noticeable change under argon environment. The existence of oxide outer shell layers in the GaP nanowires was proposed to be a main reason for this emission stability behavior. Field emission energy distributions of electrons from these nanowires revealed that field emission mechanism of the semiconductor nanowires were different from that of carbon nanotubes.

  • The linearity of the GaAs FET power amplifier(PA) is greatly influenced by source and load impedance for the FETs. The third order intermodulation products, IM3, from the GaAs FET PA are investigated in relation with source and load impedance. From heuristic as well as analytic point of view, e.g., Volterra series analysis, is employed to analyze the effects of nonlinear circuit elements, gate-source capacitance, $C_{gs}$, and drain-source current, $I_{ds}$. The sweet spots where soure and load impedance produce the least intermodulation products are calculated and compared with the load and source pull data with good agreements. It also shows that source impedance has a greater effect on the intermodulation products than the load impedcnce.

  • High quality GaN layer was obtained on 0001 sapphire substrate using ammonia($NH_3$) as a nitrogen source by gas source molecular beam epitaxy. As a result, RHEED is used to investigate the relaxation processes which take place during the growth of GaN. In-situ RHEED(reflection high electron energy diffraction) appeared streaky-like pattern. The full Width at half maximum of the x-ray diffraction(FWHM) rocking curve measured from plane of GaN has exhibited as narrow as 8arcmin and surface roughness was 7.83nm. Photoluminescence measurement of GaN was investigated at room temperature, where the intensity of the band edge emission is much stronger than that of deep level emission. The GaN epitaxy layer according to various growth condition was investigated.

  • 광소자 및 새로운 개념의 전력소자 응용을 위하여 Wide Bandgap 반도체에 대한 관심이 급증되고 있다. 특히 직접천이형인 GaN는 청색 발광소자 응용 및 고출력, 고주파용 전력소자 응용에 이상적인 전자물성을 갖고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 GaCl$_3$와 NH$_3$를 source gas로 하는 CVPE법을 사용하여 (0001) sapphire와 비교하였다. 기판의 증착온도 104$0^{\circ}C$에서 source gas의 III/V flow rate를 2로 분석하여 45분간 성장시킨 경우 그 증착속도는 약 40 $\mu\textrm{m}$/hr 정도였으며, 이 때 XRD을 향상시키기 위하여 증착이전에 기판의 표면에 증착온도에서 NH$_3$를 이용한 nitridation 처리를 하였으며, 그 처리시간이 3분일 때 XRD의 FWHM 특성이 가하여 조사한 결과 363 nm에서 peak가 검출되었다. 본 연구에서는 양질의 GaN 박막성장을 위한 증착조건 인자중 source gas의 flow rate가 가장 중요한 변수임을 적정 온도 범위가 75$0^{\circ}C$ 근처로 조사되었다. 실험과 모사결과의 박막 증착 최적온도의 차이는 GaN 증착시의 반응 Kinetics가 느리기 때문인 것으로 해석된다.

  • We investigated dry etching of GaAs and AiGaAs in a high density planar inductively coupled plasma system with BCl$_3$and BCl$_3$/Ar gas chemistry. A detailed etch process study of GaAs and ALGaAs was peformed as functions of ICP source power, RIE chuck power and mixing ratio of $BCl_3$ and Ar. Chamber process pressure was fixed at 7.5 mTorr in this study. The ICP source power and RIE chuck power were varied from 0 to 500 W and from 0 to 150 W, respectively. GaAs etch rate increased with the increase of ICP source power and RIE chuck power. It was also found that etch rates of GaAs in $15BCi_3$/5Ar plasmas were relatively high with applied RIE chuck power compared to pure 20 sccm $BCl_3$plasmas. The result was the same as AlGaAs. We expect that high ion-assisted effect in $BCl_3$/Ar plasma increased etch rates of both materials. The GaAs and AlGaAs features etched at 20 sccm $BCl_3$and $15BCl_3$/5Ar with 300 W ICP source power, 100 W RIE chuck power and 7.5 mTorr showed very smooth surfaces(RMS roughness < 2 nm) and excellent sidewall. XPS study on the surfaces of processed GaAs also proved extremely clean surfaces of the materials after dry etching.

  • The selective area growth light emitting diode on GaN substrate was grown using mixed-source HVPE method with multi-sliding boat system. The GaN substrate was grown using mixed-source HVPE system. Te-doped AlGaN/AlGaN/Mg-doped AlGaN/Mg-doped GaN multi-layers were grown on the GaN substrate. The appearance of epi-layers and the thickness of the DH was evaluated by SEM measurement. The DH metallization was performed by e-beam evaporator. n-type metal and p-type metal were evaporated Ti/Al and Ni/Au, respectively. At the I-V measurement, the turn-on voltage is 3 V and the differential resistance is 13 Ω. It was found that the SAG-LED grown on GaN substrate using mixed-source HVPE method with multi-sliding boat system could be applied for developing high quality LEDs.

It was also found that etch rate of GaAs in $BCl_3$ gas with 25% Ar addition was superior to that of GaAs in a pure $BCl_3$ (20 sccm $BCl_3$) plasma. The result was same with AlGaAs. We expect that high ion-assisted effect in $BCl_3$/Ar plasma increased etch rates of both materials.

  • The combination of angular spin momentum with electronics is a promising successor to charge-based electronics. The conduction bands in GaAs may become spin-polarized via optical spin pumping, doping with magnetic ions, or induction of a moment with an external magnetic field. We investigated the spin populations in GaAs with x-ray magnetic circular dichroism for each of these three cases. We find strong anti-symmetric lineshapes at the Ga $L_3$ edge indicating conduction band spin splitting, with differences in line width and amplitude depending on the source of spin polarization.

  • The effects of the growth temperature on the properties of a-plane GaN epi-layer on r-plane sapphire by HVPE were studied, when the constant V/III ratio and the flow rate of HCl for the Ga source channel was fixed at 10 and 700 sccm, respectively. Additionally the effects of V/III ratios for source gasses were studied when growth temperature and the flow rate of HCl for the Ga source channel was fixed at $1000^{\circ}C$ and 700 sccm, respectively. As the growth temperature was increased, the values of Full Width Half Maximum (FWHM) for Rocking curve (RC) of a-plane GaN (11-20) epi-layer were decreased and thickness of a-plane GaN epi-layer were increased. As V/III ratios were increased at $1000^{\circ}C$, the values of FWHM for RC of a-plane GaN (11-20) were declined and thickness of a-plane GaN epi-layer were increased. The a-plane GaN (11-20) epi-layer grown at $1000^{\circ}C$ and V/III ratio = 10 showed the lowest value FWHM for RC of a-plane GaN (11-20) for 734 arcsec and the smallest dependence of Azimuth angle for FWHM of (11-20) RCs.
