Thin film deposition of InN, which is a less-studied III-nitride compound semiconductor because of the difficulty if crystal growth, was performed by rf reactive sputtering method using In target and $N_2$reactive gas. The structrual, electrical, and optical properties of the produced films were measured and disussed according to the sputtering parameters such as deposition pressure, rf power, and substrate temperature. From the result of deposition pressure, rf power, and substrate temperature, we could obtain optimal conditions of 5m Torr, 60W, $60^{\circ}C$ for preparing InN thin film with high crystallinity, low carrier concentration, and high Hall mobility. The carrier concentration, Hall mobility, and optical bandgap of the fabricated InN thin films at optimal condition were $6.242\times10^{18}cm^{-3}, 212.526cm^2/V\cdot$ｓ, and 1.912eV, respectively.

The CdSe thin films wee grown on the Si(100) wafers by a hot wall epitaxy method(HWE). The source and substrate temperature are $600^{\circ}C\;and\;430^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystalline structure of epilayers was investigated by double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). Hall effect on the sample was measured by van der Pauw method and studied on the carrier density and mobility dependence on temperature. From Hall data, the mobility was increased in the timperature range 30K to 150K by impurity scatering and decreased in the temperature range 150K to 293K by the lattice scattering. In order to explore the applicability as a photoconductive cell, we measured the sensitivity($\gamma$), the ratio of photocurrent to darkcurrent(pc/dc), maximum allowable power dissipation(MAPD), spectral response and response time. The results indicated that the photoconductive characteristic were the best for the samples annealed in Cu vapor compare with in Cd, Se, air and vacuum vapour. Then we obtained the sensitivity of 0.99, the value of pc/dc of $1.39{\times}10^7$, the MAPD of 335mV, and the rise and decay time of 10ms and 9.5ms, respectively

The electrical, optical and structural properties of ZnNiO thin _ films deposited on Si substrates using rf-magnetron sputtering method have been investigated before and after the thermal annealing processes. The crystallinity of the ZnNiO thin film become degraded with increasing the Ni contents. This is mainly because the lattice of the thin film was expanded due to the oxygen-deficient conditions. Concerning the electrical properties of the thin film, the carrier concentration increases ($6.81\times10^{14}\textrm{cm}^{-2}$) and Hall mobility decreases (36.3 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vㆍs) with higher doping concentration of Ni. However, the carrier concentration and Hall mobility became low ($1.10\times10^{14}\textrm{cm}^2$ and high (209.6 $\textrm{cm}^2$/Vㆍs), respectively, after the thermal annealing process at $1000 ^{\circ}C$. We also observed a strong luminescene center peaking at 546 nm in photoluminescence spectra, which was caused by a deep level center in the ZnO band gap with oxygen deficient ZnNiO structure.

The ionization energy and degree of ionization for p-type $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ with boron doping are calculated taking into account the screening and broadening effects. The drift and Hall mobilities are then calculated using the relaxation time approximation and compared with the previously reported measurement data for relaxed and strained $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ alloys to estimate the alloy scattering potential. From a fit, the alloy scattering potential is found to be 0.5 eV. The in-plane drift mobility for p-type strained $Si_{1-x}Ge_x$ grown on (001) Si substrate is approximately 1+$10x^2$ times higher than that for bulk Si in the high doping range.

5 MeV proton-irradiation with total dose of $10^{15}/cm^2$ was performed on AlGaN/GaN-on-Si high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with various gate metals including Ni, TaN, W, and TiN to investigate the degradation characteristics. The positive shift of pinch-off voltage and the reduction of on-current were observed from irradiated HEMTs regardless of a type of gate materials. Hall and transmission line measurements revealed the reduction of carrier mobility and sheet charge concentration due to displacement damage by proton irradiation. The shift of pinch-off voltage was dependent on Schottky barrier heights of gate metals. Gate leakage and capacitance-voltage characteristics did not show any significant degradation demonstrating the superior radiation hardness of Schottky gate contacts on GaN.

Display 산업의 확대로 인해 광학적 특성 및 전기적 특성이 우수한 TCO (Transparent conductive oxide) 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 기존에는 ITO가 대부분의 분야에서 이용되었지만 In의 경제적인 단점으로 인해 새로운 대체물로써 ZnO가 떠오르고 있다. ZnO는 전형적인 n-type 반도체이며, wide band gap 물질로써 Al, Ga, B과 같은 3 족 원소를 doping 함으로써 광학적 및 전기적 특성을 향상시킬 수 있다. 최근에는 ZnO의 이온반경과 비슷한 Ga을 도핑한 Ga-doped ZnO 박막에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 이는 ZnO에 Ga을 도핑함으로써 격자결함을 최소화 시키고 carrier concentration 및 hall mobility를 향상시켜 전기전도도의 향상을 이루기 때문이다. 본 연구에서는 $Ga_2O_3$이 3wt% doping 된 ZnO rotating cylindrical target 을 DC magnetron sputtering 을 이용하여 2 kW의 파워와 70 kHz의 주파수를 고정하고, 증착 온도를 변화시켜 유리 기판 위에 Ga-doped ZnO 박막을 증착 하였다. 증착 시 온도가 Ga-doped ZnO 박막에 미치는 영향을 관찰하기 위해 박막 표면의 조성을 분석하였고, 결정성 및 전기적 특성의 변화를 통해 박막의 특성을 비교 평가하였다. Ga-doped ZnO 박막의 표면과 두께는 SEM (Scanning electron microscope) 분석을 통해 관찰하였고, XRD (X-ray diffractometer) 를 이용하여 결정학적 특성을 확인하였다. 또한 Van der Pauw 방법을 이용한 hall 측정을 통해 resistivity, carrier concentration, hall mobility를 분석하였고, UV-Vis를 이용하여 박막의 투과율을 분석하였으며, 이를 토대로 투명 전도막으로써 Ga-doped ZnO 박막의 응용 가능성을 평가하였다.

The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the CuGaTe$_2$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnance. For extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the CuGaTe$_2$ polycrystal, it was found tetragonal structure whose lattice constant a$\_$0/ and c$\_$0/ were 6.025 ${\AA}$ and 11.931 ${\AA}$, respectively. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CuGaTe$_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 670 $^{\circ}C$ and 410 $^{\circ}C$ respective1y, and the thickness of the single crystal thin films is 2.1 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The crystalline structure of single crystalthin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). Hall effect on this sample was measured by the method of van der Pauw and studied on carrier density and mobility dependence on temperature. The carrier density and mobility of CuGaTe$_2$ single crystal thin films deduced from Hall data are 8.72${\times}$10$\^$23/㎥, 3.42${\times}$10$\^$-2/㎡/V$.$s at 293K, respectively. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c - axis of the CuGaTe$_2$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling Δs.o and the crystal field splitting Δcr were 0.0791 eV and 0/2463eV at 10K, respectively. From the PL spectra at 10K, the peaks corresponding to free bound excitons and D-A pair and a broad emission band due to SA is identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.0470eV and the dissipation energy of the donor -bound exciton and acceptor-bound exciton to be 0.0490eV, 0.00558eV, respectively.

GaN 기반 Light emitting diodes(LEDs)의 p-type doping layer는 일반적으로 hole을 발생시키는 acceptor로 Mg이 사용하되고 있다. 보통 Mg이 도핑된 p-type GaN은 >$1\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$의 저항이 존재하는데 그 이유는 Mg의 열적 이온화를 위한 activation 에너지가 높아서 상온에서 valence band의 hole concentration는 전체 억셉터 농도의 1%가 되지 않기 ��문이다. 본 논문에서는 높은 hole 농도를 얻기 위해서 metalorganic chemical-vapor deposition (MOCVD)를 장비를 사용하여 사파이어 기판의 misorientation-angle에 따른 p-type a-plane(11-20) GaN 특성을 분석하였다. misorientation-angle은 c축 방향으로 $+0.15^{\circ}$, $-0.15^{\circ}$, $-0.2^{\circ}$, $-0.4^{\circ}$ off된 r-plane(1-102) 사파이어 기판 을 사용하였다. p-type 도핑물질로 bis-magnesium (Cp2Mg) 소스를 사용하였고 성장 과정중 발생하는 hydrogen passivation으로 인한 Mg-H complexes현상을 해결하기위해 conventional furnace annealing (CFA)와 rapid thermal annealing (RTA)를 이용하여 열처리 공정을 진행하였다. 열처리 공정은 Air와 N2 분위기에서 $650^{\circ}C$에서 $900^{\circ}C$ 사이의 다양한 온도에서 수행하였고 Hall 측정을 위해 Ni을 전극 물질로 사용하였다. 상온에서 Accent HL5500IU Hall system을 사용하여 hole concentration, mobility, specific resistance을 측정하였다. 열처리 공정 후 Hall측정 결과 $+0.15^{\circ}$, $-0.15^{\circ}$, $-0.2^{\circ}$, $-0.4^{\circ}$ off된 각 샘플들은 온도, 시간, 분위기에 따라 hole concentration ($7.4{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}{\sim}6{\times}10^{17}cm^{-3}$), mobility(${\mu}h=\;1.72\;cm^2/V-s\;{\sim}15.2\;cm^2/V-s$), specific resistance(4.971 ohm-cm ~8.924 ohm-cm) 가 변화됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 또한 광학적 특성을 분석하기 위해 Photoluminescence (PL)을 측정하였다.
