Recently, many groups have attempted to fabricate 3-dimensional (3D) structures of GaN such as pyramids, rods, stripes and annulars. Since quantum structures on non-polar and semi-polar planes of 3D structures have less influence of internal electric filed, multi quantum wells (MQWs) formed on those planes have high quantum efficiency. Especially, pyramidal and annular structures consist of various crystal planes with different emission wavelength, providing a possibillity of phosphor-free white light emtting diodes (WLEDs).[1] However, it still has problem to obtain high color rendering index (CRI) number because of narrow-band emission and poor indium composition caused by the formation of few number of facets during metal-organic chemical vapor deposition growth.[2] If we can fabricate 3D structure having more various facets, we can make broad-band emittied WLEDs and improve CRI number. In this study, we suggest a simple method to fabricate 3D structures having various facet and containing high indium composition by means of a combination of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition and wet chemical etching techniques.

NiO buffer layers for YBCO coated conductors were deposited on hi-axially textured Ni substrates by MOCVD(metal organic chemical vapor deposition) method, using single solution source. To establish the processing condition, oxygen partial pressure and deposition temperature were changed. The surface orientation and degree of texture were estimated by X-ray diffraction, X-ray pole figure and atomic force microscopy. The FWHMs of in-plane and out-of-plane of the NiO films were about 10$^{\circ}$. The surface roughness was a function of deposition temperature. The AFM surface roughness of NiO films is in the range of 3∼10 nm, when NiO films was grown at 450∼530$^{\circ}C$.

Catalytic synthesis and properties of ${\beta}-Ga_2O_3$ nanowires grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition are reported. Au, Ni and Cu catalysts were suitable for the growth of $Ga_2O_3$ nanowires under our experimental conditions. The $Ga_2O_3$ nanowires grown by using Au, Ni and Cu catalysts showed different growth rates and morphologies in each case. We found the $Ga_2O_3$ nanowires were grown by the Vapor-Solid (VS) process when Ni was used as a catalyst while the Vapor-Liquid-Solid (VLS) was a dominant process in case of Au and Cu catalysts. Also, we found nanowires showed different optical properties depend on catalytic metals. On the other hand, for the cases of Ti, Sn and Ag catalysts, nanowires could not be obtained under the same condition of Au, Cu and Ni catalytic synthesis. We found that these results are related to the different characteristics of each catalyst, such as, melting points and phase diagrams with gallium metal.

In this study, we have investigated a high-temperature AlN nucleation layer and AlGaN epilayers on c-plane sapphire substrate by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD). High resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Raman scattering measurements have been exploited to study the crystal quality, surface morphology, and residual strain of the HT-AlN nucleation layer. These analyses reveal that the insertion of an LT-AlN nucleation layer can improve the crystal quality, smooth the surface morphology of the HT-AlN nucleation layer and further reduce the threading dislocation density of AlGaN epifilms. The mechanism of inserting an LT-AlN nucleation layer to enhance the optical properties of HT-AlN nucleation layer and AlGaN epifilm are discussed from the viewpoint of driving force of reaction in this paper.

본 논문에서는 gate 산화막을 위한 Hf oxide 박막을 $Hf(dmae)_4$ (dmae=dimethylaminoethoxide) 전구체로 Direct Liquid Injection Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (DLI-MOCVD)방법을 이용하여 p-type Si(100) 기판 위에 증착하였다. 이 전구체를 이용하여 $150^{\circ}C$의 낮은 증착 온도에서도 낮은 carbon 농도와 roughness를 가지는 양질의 박막을 증착할 수 있었다. 증착된 박막은 비정질 구조를 나타내었지만 annealing 온도를 증가시킴에 따라서 결정성(monoclinic phase)을 나타내었다. $500{\AA}$으로 증착한 박막을 C-V 와 I-V curve를 통하여 전기적 특성을 평가하였다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 유효유전상수(k)는 증가하지만 열처리 온도가 $900^{\circ}C$ 이상이 되면 계면층의 형성에 의해 유효유전상수는 감소하게 되고 이에 따라 누설 전류도 감소하게 된다. 산소분위기 $800^{\circ}C$에서 annealing한 $HfO_2$ 박막의 유전상수는 20.1이고, 누설 전류 밀도는 SV에서 $2.2\times10^{-6}A/\textrm{cm}^2$ 로 좋은 전기적 특성을 가진다.

The purpose of this research is to develop a process and a system to collect, purify and reuse the residual quantity of trimethylgallium, used as a raw material, upon GaN epitaxial growth for LED from a metal organic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD) equipment. This research reviews whether TMGa collected from the process can be used through a chemical and structural characteristics evaluation. As a result of analyzing the purity using ICP-MS and ICP-AES, 7N high purity (99.99999%) of TMGa was obtained. According to checking the structural change of TMGa through NMR analysis, TMGa having pure $(CH_3)_3Ga$ structure was obtained without structural change. For reliability review of the collected TMGa, u-GaN was deposited using the MOCVD process and an structural, optical and electrical characteristics evaluation was conducted. As a result, it was found out that the reuse was possible.

Hexagonal GaN (h-GaN) films have been grown on Si(111) substrates by metal organic chemical vapor deposition using the azidodiethylgallium methylamine adduct, Et₂Ga(N₃)·NH₂Me, as a new single precursor. Deposition was carried out in the substrate temperature range 385-650 °C. The GaN films obtained were stoichiometric and did not contain any appreciable amounts of carbon impurities. It was also found that the GaN films deposited on Si(111) had the [0001] preferred orientation. The photoluminescence spectrum of a GaN film showed a band edge emission peak characteristic of h-GaN at 378 nm.
