We have investigated the sensing properties of ethanol gas sensor with pure ZnO and Ga-doped ZnO nanowires on Au coated (0001) sapphire substrates grown by hot walled pulsed laser deposition. Randomly aligned ZnO nanowires arrays were grown on a Au-electrode patterned under ambient conditions. ZnO nanowires have various sizes and shapes with a different substrate position inside a furnace. The average of length and diameter of the ZnO nanowires were $8\;{\mu}m$ and 100 nm respectively, and confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Sensitivity chanege characterization of the gas sensor was found that measured sensitivities of the ethanol gas sensors were 83.3% and 68.3% at $300^{\circ}C$ respectively.

We design and demonstrate the controled doping into ZnO nanowires (NWs) adopting self-contrived hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD). Optimized synthesis conditions with the diversified dopants guarantee the excellent crystalinity and morphology as well as electrical properties of the NWs. Proprietary target rotating system in the HW-PLD fuels the controlled formation and doping of the NWs. Prepared NWs sensitive to the environment are systematically characterized, and the doping mechanism is discussed.

Pure ZnO, ZnO nanowires doped with 3 wt.% Ga (3GZO) and doped with 3 wt.% Ag (3SZO) were grown by a hot-walled pulse laser deposition (HW-PLD) technique. The optical and chemical properties of Ga and Ag doped nanowires was analyzed. Nanowires were determined to be under 200 nm in diameter and several μm in length. Change of significant resistance was observed and the gas detection sensitivities of ZnO, 3GZO and 3SZO nanawires were compared. The sensitivities of ZnO, 3GZO, and 3SZO nanowire sensors were measured at 300℃ for 1 ppm of ethanol gas at 97%, 48%, and 203%, respectively.

We design and demonstrate the controlled morphologies of Ag-dpped ZnO nanowires (NWs) adopting self-contrived hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD). p-type Ag-doping is ensuired by low temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectrum to find the AoX peak at 3.349 eV. Morphology of grown NWs are controlled by changing the kinetic energy and flux of the ablated particles with adjusting the target - substrate (T-S) distance. The analysis on the resultant NWs is presented.

Pristine ZnO, 3 wt.% Ga-doped (3GZO) and 3 wt.% Ag-doped (3SZO) ZnO nanowires (NWs) were grown using the hot-walled pulse laser deposition (HW-PLD) technique. The doping of Ga and Ag in ZnO NWs was observed by analyzing the optical and chemical properties. We optimized the synthesis conditions, including processing temperature, time, gas flow, and distance between target and substrate for the growth of pristine and doped ZnO NWs. The diameter and length of pristine and doped ZnO NWs were controlled under 200 nm and several ${\mu}m$, respectively. Low temperature photoluminescence (PL) was performed to observe the optical property of doped NWs. We clearly observed the shift of the near band edge (NBE) emission by using low temperature PL. In the case of 3GZO and 3SZO NWs, the center photon energy of the NBE emissions shifted to low energy direction using the Burstein Moss effect. A strong donor-bound exciton peak was found in 3 GZO NWs, while an acceptor-bound exciton peak was found in 3SZO NWs. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) also indicated that the shift of binding energy was mainly attributed to the interaction between the metal ion and ZnO NWs.

We synthesize ZnO nanowires (NWs) doped with 3 wt% Ga on sapphire substrate using a hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (PLD) system named PLD in Furnace. A proprietary target rotating system is employed in the furnace to ensure the homogeneity of the deposition. The kinetic energy of the laser-ablazed ZnO is controlled for the optimization of NW formation. The physical properties of the resultant NWs are presented.

The control of Ga doping in ZnO nanowires (NWs) by physical vapor deposition has been implemented and characterized. Various Ga-doped ZnO NWs were grown using the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method, with Au catalyst on c-plane sapphire substrate by hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD), one of the physical vapor deposition methods. The structural, optical and electrical properties of Ga-doped ZnO NWs have been systematically analyzed, by changing Ga concentration in ZnO NWs. We observed stacking faults and different crystalline directions caused by increasing Ga concentration in ZnO NWs, using SEM and HR-TEM. A $D^0X$ peak in the PL spectra of Ga doped ZnO NWs that is sharper than that of pure ZnO NWs has been clearly observed, which indicated the substitution of Ga for Zn. The electrical properties of controlled Ga-doped ZnO NWs have been measured, and show that the conductance of ZnO NWs increased up to 3 wt% Ga doping. However, the conductance of 5 wt% Ga doped ZnO NWs decreased, because the mean free path was decreased, according to the increase of carrier concentration. This control of the structural, optical and electrical properties of ZnO NWs by doping, could provide the possibility of the fabrication of various nanowire based electronic devices, such as nano-FETs, nano-inverters, nano-logic circuits and customized nano-sensors.

본 연구에서는 HW-PLD(Hot-walled Pulsed Laser Deposition) 법을 이용하여 ZnO 나노와이어를 $Al_2O_3$ 기판 위에 성장하였다. 성장된 ZnO 나노와이어는 SEM, XRD, PL 분석을 통하여 구조적 특성을 확인하였으며, 성장된 나노와이어를 photolithography 공정을 통하여 FET(Field Effect Transistor)소자를 제작하였다. 제작된 소자의 I-V 특성 측정 결과 Ti/Au 전극과 ZnO nanowire 채널 간에 ohmic 접합이 형성된 것을 확인하였으며 게이트 전압의 증가에 따라 소스와 드레인 사이의 전류가 증가하는 전형적인 n-type FET소자 특성을 나타내었다.

The electrical properties of ZnO nanowire field effect transistors (FETs) have been investigated depending on various diameters of nanowires. The ZnO nanowires were synthesized with an Au catalyst on c-plane $Al_2O_3$ substrates using hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD). The nanowire FETs are fabricated by conventional photo-lithography. The diameter of ZnO nanowires is simply controlled by changing the thickness of the Au catalyst metal, which is confirmed by FE-SEM. It has been clearly observed that the ZnO nanowires showed different diameters simply depending on the thickness of the Au catalyst. As the diameter of ZnO nanowires increased, the threshold voltage of ZnO nanowires shifted to the negative direction systematically. The results are attributed to the difference of conductive layer in the nanowires with different diameters of nanowires, which is simply controlled by changing the catalyst thickness. The results show the possibility for the simple method of the fabrication of nanowire logic circuits using enhanced and depleted mode.

ZnO nanowires have been fabricated by vapor-liquid-solidification with hot-walled pulsed laser deposition method. The diameter of ZnO nanowire has been systematically controlled simply by changing the thickness of Au catalyst. Field effect transistors with different diameter have been fabricated by using photolithography and e-beam lithography. The threshold voltage of ZnO nanowire FET showed enhanced mode and depleted mode depending on the diameter of ZnO nanowires. This is mainly due to the change of the carrier concentration depending on the size of nanowires. We have fabricated ZnO nanowire inverters using nanowire FETs. This simple method to fabricate ZnO nano-inverter will be useful to open the possibility of ZnO nanoelectronic applications.
