SiO2 위에 as-dep. 비정질 Si1-xGex 합금박막을 증착하기 위하여 Si2H6 와 GeH4 가스를 사용한 저압 화학 기상증착(LPCVD)에 관하여 연구하였다. 증착온도는 $400-500^{\circ}C$였으며, 공정압력은 0.5-1Torr 였다. 박막내의 Ge 함량은 온도 및 증착가스의 유량이 일정하면 공정압력이 증가함에 따라 증가하였고, 공정압력 및 증착가스의 유량이 일정하면 증착온도에 관계없이 일정하였다. 일정한 Si2H6가스의 표면반응은 박막내의 Ge 원자에 의해 촉진됨을 알 수 있었다. 조성이 일정한 Si1-xGex 박막의 증착속도는 증착온도 증가에 따라 Arrhenius 형태로 증가하여, Si, Si0.84Ge0.16,Si0.69Ge0.31박막증착의 활성화에너지는 각각 1.5, 1.13, 1 eV로서 박막내의 Ge함량이 증가함에 따라 활성화 에너지는 감소하였다.

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.

Germanium nanocrystals(NCs) were formed in the silicon dioxide($SiO_2$) on Si layers by Ge implantation and rapid thermal annealing process. The density and mean size of Ge-NCs heated at $800^{\circ}C$ during 10 min were confirmed by High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy. Capacitance versus voltage(C-V) measurements of MOS capacitors with single $Al_2O_3$ capping layers were performed in order to study electrical properties. The C-V results exhibit large threshold voltage shift originated by charging effect in Ge-NCs, revealing the possibility that the structure is applicable to Nano Floating Gate Memory(NFGM) devices.

We studied thermal diffusion properties diffusion properties of multi-layered Ge-Sb-Te alloy thin films for optical recording media by solving the thermal equation. Based on the numerical analysis of optical energy distribution and absorption inside multi-layered films including temperature gradient and heat transfer simultaneously, we proposed the optimum parameters of the input laser power and the multi-layer structure as follow. i) Input laser power is 18 mW, ii) laser exposure time is 60 ns, iii) the thicknesses of the lower and the upper ZnS-SiO$_2$are 140 nm and 20~30 nm respectively, and iv) thickness of Ge-Sb-Te recording film is 20 nm.

The effects of 0.15mol% Y2O3 doped semiconducting (Ba1-xPbx)TiO3 ceramics with 0.5 mol% Pb5Ge3O11 as sintering additives have been investigated as function of Pb contents (from 0.05 mol to 0.3 mol) and sintering temperatures (from 1050$^{\circ}C$ to 1200$^{\circ}C$). As the Pb content increases in the (Ba1-xPbx)TiO3 system, the size and resistance of the grain increase but the capacitance of the grain boundary decreases due to the formation of liquid phase during the sintering. And with increasing the sintering temperatures, the resistance of the grain decreases but the capacitance of the grain boundary increases. The PTCR effects decrease with increasing the Pb content and the sintering temperature.

실리카글라스를 기초로 하는 PLC소자는 가격, 광 손실 성질과 광섬유와의 결합효율이 좋아 광통신에 응용되어지고 있으며 Ge 도핑된 실리카 글라스는 PLC소자의 코어물질로 널리 사용되고 있다. 소작제작을 위해서는 높은 식각률과 깨끗하고 적은 표면손상을 얻어야 하므로 유도결합플라즈마를 이용한 건식식각공정개발이 이루어 져야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Ge 도핑된 실리카글라스의 식각특성을 연구하기 위해 $C_2$F/6 와 NF$_3$가스를 사용하였고 ICP power, bias power, 압력, 플라즈마와 샘플간의 거리를 변화시키면서 식각속도, 표면거칠기, 메사수직도, 마스크선택도등 기본공정 조건을 연구하고 첨가가스(CH$_4$, $O_2$), 마스크 물질(Ni, Cr, PR) 도핑농도(0.3, 0.45, 0.7%)등을 변화시키면서 식각특성을 연구하였다. 그 결과 300nm/min, 정도의 식각속도를 가지고 수직한 메사각도(~89$^{\circ}$)와 미려한 표면(표면거 칠기 1.5nm 이하)를 갖는 결과를 얻었다.

While there are plenty of studies on synthesizing semiconducting germanium nanowires (Ge NWs) by vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process, it is difficult to inject dopants into them with uniform dopants distribution due to vapor-solid (VS) deposition. In particular, as precursors and dopants such as germane ($GeH_4$), phosphine ($PH_3$) or diborane ($B_2H_6$) incorporate through sidewall of nanowire, it is hard to obtain the structural and electrical uniformity of Ge NWs. Moreover, the drastic tapered structure of Ge NWs is observed when it is synthesized at high temperature over $400^{\circ}C$ because of excessive VS deposition. In 2006, Emanuel Tutuc et al. demonstrated Ge NW pn junction using p-type shell as depleted layer. However, it could not be prevented from undesirable VS deposition and it still kept the tapered structures of Ge NWs as a result. Herein, we adopt $C_2H_2$ gas in order to passivate Ge NWs with carbon sheath, which makes the entire Ge NWs uniform at even higher temperature over $450^{\circ}C$. We can also synthesize non-tapered and uniformly doped Ge NWs, restricting incorporation of excess germanium on the surface. The Ge NWs with carbon sheath are grown via VLS process on a $Si/SiO_2$ substrate coated 2 nm Au film. Thin Au film is thermally evaporated on a $Si/SiO_2$ substrate. The NW is grown flowing $GeH_4$, HCl, $C_2H_2$ and PH3 for n-type, $B_2H_6$ for p-type at a total pressure of 15 Torr and temperatures of $480{\sim}500^{\circ}C$. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals clear surface of the Ge NWs synthesized at $500^{\circ}C$. Raman spectroscopy peaked at about ~300 $cm^{-1}$ indicates it is comprised of single crystalline germanium in the core of Ge NWs and it is proved to be covered by thin amorphous carbon by two peaks of 1330 $cm^{-1}$ (D-band) and 1590 $cm^{-1}$ (G-band). Furthermore, the electrical performances of Ge NWs doped with boron and phosphorus are measured by field effect transistor (FET) and they shows typical curves of p-type and n-type FET. It is expected to have general potentials for development of logic devices and solar cells using p-type and n-type Ge NWs with carbon sheath.

We report the proper resistance-area products in the single crystalline bcc CoFe/MgO tunnel contact on nondegenerate n-Ge desirable for efficient spin injection and detection at room temperature. The electric properties of the crystalline CoFe(5 nm)/MgO(1.5,2.0,2.5 nm)/n-Ge(001) tunnel contacts have been investigated by I-V-T and C-V measurements. Interestingly, the tunnel contact with the 2-nm MgO exhibits the ohmic behavior with low resistance-area products, satisfying the theoretical conditions required for significant spin injection and detection. This result is ascribed to the presence of MgO layer between CoFe and n-Ge, enhancing the Schottky pinning parameter as well as shifting the charge neutrality level.

The effects of glass addition on the low-temperature sintering and microwave dielectric properties of $BaO-Nd_2O_3-TiO_2$ dielectric ceramics were studied. When 10∼13 wt% of lithium borosilicate glass was added, the sintering temperature decreased from 130$0^{\circ}C$to 850-$900^{\circ}C$relative density of more than 97% was obtained. When the sample was sintered at $850^{\circ}C$ with 10 wt% of glass, the dielectric properties of $\epsilon_r{\ge}54$, $Q{\times}f_0{\ge}2300$, and $\tau_f{\ge}+8ppm/^{\circ}C$ were obtained.
