The core-shell InGaN/GaN Multi Quantum Well-Nanowires (MQW-NWs) that were selectively grown on oxide templates with perfectly circular hole patterns were highly crystalline and were shaped as high-aspect-ratio pyramids with semi-polar facets, indicating hexagonal symmetry. The formation of the InGaN active layer was characterized at its various locations for two types of the substrates, one containing defect-free MQW-NWs with GQDs and the other containing MQW-NWs with defects by using HRTEM. The TEM of the defect-free NW showed a typical diode behavior, much larger than that of the NW with defects, resulting in stronger EL from the former device, which holds promise for the realization of high-performance nonpolar core-shell InGaN/GaN MQW-NW substrates. These results suggest that well-defined nonpolar InGaN/GaN MQW-NWs can be utilized for the realization of high-performance LEDs.

Metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD)를 이용하여 사파이어 기판 위에 405 nm의 파장을 갖는 GaN light-emitting diode (LED)를 제작하였다. LED의 InGaN 활성층에서 생성되어 칩의 후면으로 향하는 광자를 전면으로 반사시키기 위하여, 사파이어 기판 후면에 반사막을 증착하였다. 반사막으로는 Al을 사용하였으며, 사파이어 기판에 대한 Al 박막의 접착력을 개선하기 위하여 사파이어 기판 후면에 Ti를 먼저 증착한 후에 Al을 증착하였다. Ti-Al 반사막을 채용한 결과, 광추출 효율이 52 % 향상되었다.

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.

In this paper, we report that selective etching on N-polar face by EC (electro-chemical)-etching effect on the reduction of bowing and strain of FS (free-standing)-GaN substrates. We applied the EC-etching to concave and convex type of FS-GaN substrates. After the EC-etching for FS-GaN, nano porous structure was formed on N-polar face of concave and convex type of FS-GaN. Consequently, the bowing in the convex type of FS-GaN substrate was decreased but the bowing in the concave type of FS-GaN substrate was increased. Furthermore, the FWHM (full width at half maximum) of (1 0 2) reflection for the convex type of FS-GaN was significantly decreased from 601 to 259 arcsec. In the case, we confirmed that the EC-etching method was very effective to reduce the bowing in the convex type of FS-GaN and the compressive stress in N-polar face of convex type of FS-GaN was fully released by Raman measurement.

High quality $VO_2$ thin films were successfully grown on GaN substrate by optimizing oxygen partial pressure during the growth using RF sputtering technique. The $VO_2$ thin film grown on GaN substrate exhibited an unusual metal insulator transition behavior, which was known to be observed only either in doped sample or under uniaxial stress. Raman spectra also confirmed that metal insulator transition occurred from monoclinic M1 to rutile R phase via monoclinic M2 phase with increasing temperature. We believe that large lattice mismatch between $VO_2$ and GaN substrate may cause M2 phase to be thermodynamically stable. Optical transmittance and its electrical switching behavior were carefully investigated to elucidate the underlying physics of its metal insulator transition behavior. This study may lead to a unique opportunity to better understand the growth mechanism of M2 phase dominant $VO_2$ thin films.

R-plane 사파이어 위에 a-plane GaN층이 성장된 기판에 혼합소스 HVPE(mixed-source hydride vapor phase epitaxy) 방법으로 GaN/InGaN의 이종접합구조(heterostructure)를 구현하였다. GaN/InGaN 이종접합구조는 GaN, InGaN, Mg-doped GaN 층으로 구성되어 있다. 각 층의 성장온도는 GaN층은 $820^{\circ}C$, InGaN 층은 $850^{\circ}C$, Mg-doped GaN 층은 $1050^{\circ}C$에서 성장하였다. 이때의 $NH_3$와 HCl 가스의 유량은 각각 500 sccm, 10 sccm 이었다. SAG-GaN/InGaN 이종접합구조의 상온 EL (electroluminescence) 특성은 중심파장은 462 nm, 반치폭(FWHM : full width at half maximum) 은 0.67eV 이었다. 이 결과로부터 r-plane 사파이어 기판위에 multi-sliding boat system의 혼합소스 HVPE 방법으로 이종접합구조의 성장이 가능함을 확인하였다.

Structural and optical properties of $In_xGa_{1-X}N$ as well as $In_{0.1}Ga_{0.9}N$/GaN single quantum we11 (SQW) grown on sapphire (0001) substrate with an based GaN using rf-plasma assisted MBE have been investigated. The quality of the InXGal.,N fdm was improved as the growth temperature increased. In PL measurements at low temperatures, the band edge emission peaks of $In_xGa_{1-X}N$ was shifted to red region as an indium cell and substrate temperature increased. For $In_{0.1}Ga_{0.9}N$/GaN SQW, the optical emission energy has blue shift about 15meV in PL peak, due to the confined energy level in the well region. And, the FWHM of the $In_{0.1}Ga_{0.9}N$/GaN SQW was larger than that of the bulk Ino,la.9N films. The broadening of FWHM can be explained either as non-uniformity of Indium composition or the potential fluctuation in the well region. Photoconductivity (PC) decay measurement reveals that the optical transition lifetimes of the SQW measured gradually increased with temperatures.

We report on the growth and characterization of InGaN/GaN MQWs on two different types of sapphire substrates and GaN substrates. The InGaN/GaN MQWs are grown by using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Our analysis of the satellite peaks in the HRXRD patterns shows, GaN substrates InGaN/GaN MQW compared to sapphire substrates InGaN/GaN MQW, more compressive strain on GaN substrates than on sapphire substrates. However, results of optical investigation of InGaN/GaN MQWs grown on GaN substrates and on sapphire substrates, which have lower Stokes-like shift of PL to GaN substrates compared to sapphire substrates, are shown to the potential fluctuation and the quantum-confined Stark effect induced by the built-in internal field due to spontaneous and straininduced piezoelectric polarizations. The InGaN/GaN MQWs are shown to quantify the Stokes-like shift as a function of x.

Ultraviolet (UV) light emitting diodes (LEDs) were grown on a patterned n-type GaN substrate (PNS) with 200 nm silicon-di-oxide (SiO2) nano pattern diameter to improve the light output efficiency of the diodes. Wet etched self assembled indium tin oxide (ITO) nano clusters serve as a dry etching mask for converting the SiO2 layer grown on the n-GaN template into SiO2 nano patterns by inductively coupled plasma etching. PNS is obtained by n-GaN regrowth on the SiO2 nano patterns and UV-LEDs were fabricated using PNS as a template. Two UV-LEDs, a reference LED without PNS and a 200 nm PNS UV-LEDs were fabricated. Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Photoluminescence (PL) and Light output intensity- Input current- Voltage (L-I-V) characteristics were used to evaluate the ITO-$SiO_2$ nanopattern surface morphology, threading dislocation propagation, PNS crystalline property, PNS optical property and UVLED device performance respectively. The light out put intensity was enhanced by 1.6times@100mA for the LED grown on PNS compared to the reference LED with out PNS.
