The closed-form analytic solutions for the breakdown voltage of 6H-SiC RTD(silicon carbide reachthrough diode) having metal$-n^--n^+$ Schottky structure or $p^+-n^--n^+$, are successfully derived by solving impact ionization integral using an effective ionization coefficient. For the lightly doped n- epitaxial layer, the breakdown voltage of SiC RTD are nearly constant with the increased doping concentration while the breakdown voltages decrease for the heavily doped epitaxial layer.

Resistance-change Random Access Memory(ReRAM) memory, which utilizes electrochemical control of metal in thin films of solid electrolyte, shows great promise as a future solid state memory. The technology utilizes the electrochemical formation and removal of metallic pathways in thin films of solid electrolyte. Key attributes are low voltage and current operation, excellent scalability, and a simple fabrication sequence. In this work, we investigated the nature of thin films formed by photo doping of $Ag^+$ ions into chalcogenide materials for use in solid electrolyte of Resistance-change RAM devices and switching characteristics according to field-effect.

Electon spin resonance measurements have been performed on the Mg-doped wurtzite GaN thin films grown on sapphire substrates by low-pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition. The sample set included films as-grown with the regular Mg doped and Mg delta doped samples and the corresponding annealed ones. The resonance signal has been observed from the annealed Mg delta-doped sample with the Lande g value of 2.029. This indicates that the singlet resonance signal originates from the neutral Mg acceptor located at 0.24 eV above the valence band edge and 0.13 eV above the Fermi level because of the nuclear hyperfine spin 1=0 of Mg and the larger value than the free electron g=2.0023.

The impact of surface quantization on device parameters of a Si metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) capacitor has been analyzed in the present work. Variation of conduction band bending, position of discrete energy states, variation of surface potential, and the variation of inversion carrier concentration at charge centroid have been analyzed for different gate voltages, substrate doping concentrations and oxide thicknesses. Oxide thickness calculated from the experimental C-V data of a MOS capacitor is different from the actual oxide thickness, since such data include the effect of surface quantization. A correction factor has been developed considering the effect of charge centroid in presence of surface quantization at strong inversion and it has been observed that the correction due to surface quantization is crucial for highly doped substrate with thinner gate oxide.

The double sided buried contact(DSBC)silicon solar cell processing requires doping of the rear and front grooves with boron and phosphorus respectively. The successful electroless plating of these grooves with the appropriate metals haave been found to depend on the boron conditions for the rear fingers. However, an increased understanding of electroless plating has removed this restriction. Thus the DSBC cells using different boron conditions can be electrolessly plated with ease. This paper presents the recent work done on metallizing the double sided buried contact silicon solar cells with heavily doped boron grooves. The cells results indicate that, the heavier the boron grooves, the poorer the cell performance because of the probable higher metal contact recombination associated with boron grooves.

Due to the limitations of the channel length, the lateral spread for two-dimensional impurity distributions is critical for the analysis of devices including the integrated complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) circuits and high frequency semiconductor devices. The developed codes were then compared with the two-dimensional implanted profiles measured by transmission electron microscope (TEM) as well as simulated by a commercial TSUPREM4 for verification purposes. The measured two-dimensional TEM data obtained by chemical etching-method was consistent with the results of the developed analytical model, and it seemed to be more accurate than the results attained by a commercial TSUPREM4. The developed codes can be applied on a wider energy range $(1KeV{\sim}30MeV)$ than a commercial TSUPREM4 of which the maximum energy range cannot exceed 1MeV for the limited doping elements. Moreover, it is not only limited to diffusion process but also can be applied to implantation due to the sloped and nano scale structure of the mask.

This paper reports a newly developed sol-gel process to synthesize dense YBCO thick films with $BaTiO_3$ additives using electrophoretic deposition and metal alkoxide sol/particle suspension, which we successfully produce dense $YBCO+BaTiO_3$ ceramics at a rather low temperature, compared with the sintering temperature used in conventional methods. The thick films of HTS were prepared by electrophoretic deposition, using pre-sintered powder with barium titanate addition in the form of $BaTi(OR)_6$ solution in suspension for electrophoresis. The conditions for applied voltage and deposition times for electrophoretic deposition of HTS thick films were studied in detail.

Antimony doped tin oxide (ATO) thin films were deposited at room temperature by reactive ion-beam sputter deposition (IBSD) technique in oxidizing atmosphere utilizing Sb and Sn metal targets. Effect of Sb doping concentration, film thickness and heat treatment on electrical and optical properties was investigated. The thickness of as-deposited films was controlled approximately to 1500 $\AA$ or 2000$\AA$, and Sb concentration to 10.8 and 14.9 wt%, as determined by SEM and XPS analyses. Heat treatment was performed at the temperature from 40$0^{\circ}C$ to 80$0^{\circ}C$ in flowing $O_2$or forming gas. The resulting ATO films showed widely changing electrical resistivity and optical transmittance values in the visible spectrum depending on the composition, thickness and firing condition.

We have deposited aluminum-doped ZnO thin films on borosilicate glass by atomic layer deposition. Diethylzinc (DEZ) and dimethylaluminum isopropoxide (DMAIP) were used as the metal precursor and the Al-dopant, respectively. Water was used as an oxygen source. DMAIP was successfully used as an aluminum precursor for chemical vapor deposition and ALD. All deposited films showed n-type conduction. The resistivity decreased to a minimum and then increased with increasing the aluminum content. The carrier concentration increased and the carrier mobility decreased with increasing the DMAIP to DEZ pulse ratio. The average optical transmittance was nearly 80 % in the visible part of the spectrum. The absorption edge moved to the shorter wavelength region with increasing the DMAIP to DEZ pulse ratio. Our results indicate that DMAIP is suitable for Al doping of ZnO films.

The patterning and doping technique enables graphene to replace the metal electrode as a charge injection layer in the pentacene based thin film transistor. However, it is known that pentacene molecules form lying-down coordination on the graphene surface. Pentacene thin film showed that the highly occupied molecular orbital is 0.2~0.4 eV lower in the standing up coordination than in the lying down coordination. Here, we report the formation of standing-up coordination and lowered HOMO level of the pentacene layer grown on the graphene layer doped with CYTOP.
