  • The $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor target is synthesized through solid-state reactions at the calcine temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and sintering temperature of $1300^{\circ}C$ in order to deposit $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thin film by rf magnetron sputtering system. The $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thin film is deposited on Si(100) substrate and prepared $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thin film is annealed by rapid thermal processor(RTP) at $700^{\circ}C$, 15sec. The x-ray diffraction patterns of $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor target and thin film show the position of (311) main peak. The cathodoluminescenre(CL) spectrums of $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphor thin film show main peak of 420nm and maximum intensity at the substrate temperature of $500^{\circ}C$ and annealing temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ 15sec.

  • In this study, we studied the properties of ZnO(Al) and ZnO(AlGa) thin film according to film thickness deposited on SLG by In-line magnetron sputtering system. XRD, FESEM, 4-point probe, Hall measurement system and UV/Vis-NIR spectrophotometer were employed to analyze the properties of ZnO(Al) and ZnO(AlGa) thin film. The all films exhibited (002) preferential orientation with clear peak shape and high intensity. The carrier concentration and Hall mobility of ZnO(Al) and ZnO(AlGa) thin film were improved with increasing thickness. The resistivity of both films decreased when the film thickness was raised from 500 nm to 1,450 nm. And then relatively the resistivity of ZnO(AlGa) film was lower than that of ZnO(Al) film. The transmittance of the films decreased with increasing film thickness but all films exhibited optical transmittances of over 83.3% in the visible region.

  • The ZnO thin films were grown on GaN template substrates by RF magnetron sputtering at different RF powers and n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction LEDs were fabricated to investigate the effect of the RF power on the characteristics of the n-ZnO/p-GaN LEDs. For the growth of the ZnO thin films, the substrate temperature was kept constant at $200^{\circ}C$ and the RF power was varied within the range of 200 to 500W at different growth times to deposit films of 100 nm thick. The electrical, optical and structural properties of ZnO thin films were investigated by ellipsometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), photoluminescence (PL) and by assessing the Hall effect. The characteristics of the n-ZnO/p-GaN LEDs were evaluated by current-voltage (I-V) and electroluminescence (EL) measurements. ZnO thin films were grown with a preferred c-axis orientation along the (0002) plane. The XRD peaks shifted to low angles and the surface roughness became non-uniform with an increase in the RF power. Also, the PL emission peak was red-shifted. The carrier density and the mobility decreased with the RF power. For the n-ZnO/p-GaN LED, the forward current at 20 V decreased and the threshold voltage increased with the RF power. The EL emission peak was observed at approximately 435 nm and the luminescence intensity decreased. Consequently, the crystallinity of the ZnO thin films grown with RF sputtering powers were improved. However, excess Zn affected the structural, electrical and optical properties of the ZnO thin films when the optimal RF power was exceeded. This excess RF power will degrade the characteristics of light emitting devices.

  • Monodispersed $ZnGa_2O_4$ microspheres were synthesized by a facile two-step process consisting of a solvothermal method and calcination process. The prepared monodispersed $ZnGa_2O_4$ microspheres were aggregated into 3D microstructures by self-assembly with a large number of small $ZnGa_2O_4$ particles generated in nucleation. This nucleation and self-assembly making hierarchical microstructures were depended on the concentration of PEG (polyethylene glycol) due to CAC (critical aggregation concentration) theory. And also we controlled the amount of zinc acetate to make pure $ZnGa_2O_4$ phase. Additionally, to fix the optimized calcination condition, sample was characterized by TG-DTA to prove the thermal property in the calcination process and by FT-IR to identify the changes of functional group bonding between each element of the $ZnGa_2O_4$ precursor and oxide calcined at $900^{\circ}C$ for 1 h.

  • The $ZnGa_2O_4$:Cr phosphor was synthesized through solid-state reactions at the various molar ratio of Cr from 0.002 % to 0.01 %. The XRD patterns show that the Cr-doped $ZnGa_2O_4$ has a (311) main peak and a spinel phase. Also the emission wavelength shills from 510 to 705 nm in comparison with $ZnGa_2O_4$:Mn when Cr is doped in $ZnGa_2O_4$. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors hold promise for potential applications in field-emission display devices with high brightness operating in full color regions.

  • Lighting emitting diodes of n-ZnO/MQW/p-GaN structure are fabricated and investigated. To realize this LED structure, n-ZnO/MQW/p-GaN are grown by MOCVD. At several bias voltages, blue-green light is emitted from the ZnO mesa edge. However, the emission is restricted near the mesa edge. It is seen that the hole current does not spread well. It is because conductivity of p-GaN is extremely small. The break down voltage of the device is small compared to conventional InGaN/GaN LEDs. It is seen that ZnO columnar grain boundaries act as leakage current paths and non-radiative recombination center.

  • (F,Ga) co-doped ZnO thin film on glass substrate was fabricated via a simple non-alkoxide sol-gel spin-coating. Contrary to the F single doped ZnO thin film, the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film showed a significant reduce in electrical resistivity after a second post-heat-treatment in reducing environment. The resulting decrease in electrical resistivity with Ga co-doping is considered to be resulted from the increases both carrier density and mobility. The optical transmittance of the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film in the visible range showed higher transmittance with Ga co-doping compared with F single doped ZnO thin film.

  • In this study, $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors in its application to field emission displays and electroluminescence were synthesized through the precipitation method and $Mn^{2+}$ ions. A green luminescence activator, $Cr^{3+}$ ions, and a red luminescence activator were separately doped into $ZnGa_2O_4$, which was then screen printed to an indium tin oxide substrate. The thick films of the $ZnGa_2O_4$ were deposited with the various thicknesses using nano-sized powder. The best luminescence characteristics were shown at a thickness of 60 ${\mu}m$. Additionally, green-emission $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn^{2+}$ and red-emission $ZnGa_2O_4:Cr^{3+}$ phosphor thick films, which have superior characteristics, were manufactured through the screen-printing method. These results indicate that $ZnGa_2O_4$ phosphors prepared through the precipitation method have wide application as phosphor of the full color emission.

  • GaInZnO는 투명 비정질 산화물 반도체로서 태양전지, 평판 액정 디스플레이, 잡음방지 코팅, 터치 디스플레이 패널, 히터, 광학 코팅 등 여러 응용에 쓰인다. 이 논문에서는 투명전자소자로 관심을 모으고 있는 GaInZnO의 전자적 그리고 전기적 특성을 측정하였다. GaInZnO 박막은 $SiO_2$ (100)/Si 기판위에 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터링 증착법으로 $Ga_2O_3:In_2O_3:ZnO$의 조성이 2:2:1로 된 타겟을 가지고 박막을 성장시켰다. 성장한 후에 RTP를 이용하여 30분간 열처리 하였다. GaInZnO의 전자적 특성을 나타내는 띠틈 및 실리콘 기판과의 원자가 띠 오프셋 값을 측정하였으며, 이 값들을 통해 GaInZnO박막과 실리콘 기판과의 띠 정렬도 수행하였다. 띠틈은 반사 전자 에너지 손실 분광법(REELS)을 이용하여 측정하였고, 원자가 띠 오프셋은 광전자 분광법(XPS)을 이용하여 측정하였다. 열처리 온도가 $400^{\circ}C$까지는 띠틈의 변화 및 XPS 결합에너지의 변화가 없는 것으로 보아 열적안정성이 우수함을 알 수 있다. 반면 $450^{\circ}C$에서의 띠틈이 감소하는 것으로 보아 $450^{\circ}C$에서는 열적안정성이 깨지는 것을 알 수 있다. GaInZnO 박막을 채널 층으로 하고 전극은 알루미늄(Al)으로 된 TFT를 제작하여 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. TFT 특성 결과 이동도가 약, subthreshold swing(S.S)이 약 1.5 V/decade, 점멸비가 약 $10^7$으로 측정되었다. 유리 위에 증착시킨 GaInZnO 박막의 투과율을 측정해본 결과 모든 시료가 가시광선 영역에서 80%이상의 투과율을 갖는 것으로 보아 투명전극소자로 응용이 가능하다는 것을 알 수 있었다.

  • Ga-doped ZnO thin films by RF magnetron sputtering process were synthesized according to the deposition conditions of O2 and Ar atmosphere gases, and rapid heat treatment (RTA) was performed at 600℃ in an N2 atmosphere. The thickness of the deposited ZnO : Ga thin film was measured, the crystal phase was investigated by XRD pattern analysis, and the microstructure of the thin film was observed by FE-SEM and AFM images. The intensity of the (002) plane of the X-ray diffraction pattern showed a significant difference depending on the deposition conditions of the thin films formed by O2 and Ar atmosphere gas types. In the case of a single thin f ilm doped with Ga under O2 conditions, a strong diffraction peak was observed. Under O2 and Ar conditions, in the case of a multilayer thin film with Ga doping, only a peak on the (002) plane with a somewhat weak intensity was shown. In the FE-SEM image, it was observed that the grain size of the surface of the thin film slightly increased as the thickness increased. In the case of a multilayer thin film with Ga doping under O2 and Ar atmosphere conditions, the specific resistance was 6.4 × 10-4 Ω·cm. In the case of a single thin film with Ga doping under O2 atmosphere conditions, the resistance of the thin film decreased. The resistance decreased as the thickness of the Ga-doped ZnO thin film increased to 2 ㎛, showing relatively a low specific resistance of 1.0 × 10-3 Ω·cm.
