  • Recently, InGaN/GaN multi-quantum well grown on GaN pyramid structures have attracted much attention due to their hybrid characteristics of quantum well, quantum wire, and quantum dot. This gives us broad band emission which will be useful for phosphor-free white light emitting diode. On the other hand, by using quantum dot emission on top of the pyramid, site selective single photon source could be realized. However, these structures still have several limitations for the single photon source. For instance, the quantum efficiency of quantum dot emission should be improved further. As detection systems have limited numerical aperture, collection efficiency is also important issue. It has been known that micro-cavities can be utilized to modify the radiative decay rate and to control the radiation pattern of quantum dot. Researchers have also been interested in nano-cavities using localized surface plasmon. Although the plasmonic cavities have small quality factor due to high loss of metal, it could have small mode volume because plasmonic wavelength is much smaller than the wavelength in the dielectric cavities. In this work, we used localized surface plasmon to improve efficiency of InGaN qunatum dot as a single photon emitter. We could easily get the localized surface plasmon mode after deposit the metal thin film because lnGaN/GaN multi quantum well has the pyramidal geometry. With numerical simulation (i.e., Finite Difference Time Domain method), we observed highly enhanced decay rate and modified radiation pattern. To confirm these localized surface plasmon effect experimentally, we deposited metal thin films on InGaN/GaN pyramid structures using e-beam deposition. Then, photoluminescence and time-resolved photoluminescence were carried out to measure the improvement of radiative decay rate (Purcell factor). By carrying out cathodoluminescence (CL) experiments, spatial-resolved CL images could also be obtained. As we mentioned before, collection efficiency is also important issue to make an efficient single photon emitter. To confirm the radiation pattern of quantum dot, Fourier optics system was used to capture the angular property of emission. We believe that highly focused localized surface plasmon around site-selective InGaN quantum dot could be a feasible single photon emitter.

  • The development of a buffer layer is an important issue for the second -generation wire, YBCO coated metal wire. The buffer layer demands not only on the prohibition of the reaction between YBCO and metal substrate, but also the proper lattice match and conductivity for high critical current density (Jc) of YBCO superconductor, In order to satisfy these demands, we suggested CaRuO3 as a useful candidate having that the lattice mismatches with Ni (200) and with YBCO are 8.2% and 8.0%, respectively. The CaRuO3 thin films were deposited on Ni substrates using various methods, such as e-beam evaporation and DC and RF magnetron sputtering. These films were investigated using SEM, XRD, pole-figure and AES. In e-beam evaporation, the deposition temperature of CaRuO3 was the most important since both hi-axial texturing and NiO formation between Ni and CaRuO3 depended on it. Also, the oxygen flow rate had i[n effect on the growth of CaRuO3 on Ni substrates. The optimal conditions of crystal growth and film uniformity were 400$^{\circ}C$, 50 ㎃ and 7 ㎸ when oxygen flow rate was 70∼100sccm In RF magnetron sputtering, CaRuO3 was deposited on Ni substrates with various conditions and annealing temperatures. As a result, the conductivity of CaRuO3 thin films was dependent on CaRuO3 layer thickness and fabrication temperature. We suggested the multi-step deposition, such as two-step deposition with different temperature, to prohibit the NiO formation and to control the hi-axial texture.

  • Atomic layer deposition (ALD) can be regarded as a special variation of the chemical vapor deposition method for reducing film thickness. ALD is based on sequential self-limiting reactions from the gas phase to produce thin films and over-layers in the nanometer scale with perfect conformality and process controllability. These characteristics make ALD an important film deposition technique for nanoelectronics. Tantalum pentoxide ($Ta_2O_5$) has a number of applications in optics and electronics due to its superior properties, such as thermal and chemical stability, high refractive index (>2.0), low absorption in near-UV to IR regions, and high-k. In particular, the dielectric constant of amorphous $Ta_2O_5$ is typically close to 25. Accordingly, $Ta_2O_5$ has been extensively studied in various electronics such as metal oxide semiconductor field-effect transistors (FET), organic FET, dynamic random access memories (RAM), resistance RAM, etc. In this experiment, the variations of chemical and interfacial state during the growth of $Ta_2O_5$ films on the Si substrate by ALD was investigated using in-situ synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy. A newly synthesized liquid precursor $Ta(N^tBu)(dmamp)_2$ Me was used as the metal precursor, with Ar as a purging gas and $H_2O$ as the oxidant source. The core-level spectra of Si 2p, Ta 4f, and O 1s revealed that Ta suboxide and Si dioxide were formed at the initial stages of $Ta_2O_5$ growth. However, the Ta suboxide states almost disappeared as the ALD cycles progressed. Consequently, the $Ta^{5+}$ state, which corresponds with the stoichiometric $Ta_2O_5$, only appeared after 4.0 cycles. Additionally, tantalum silicide was not detected at the interfacial states between $Ta_2O_5$ and Si. The measured valence band offset value between $Ta_2O_5$ and the Si substrate was 3.08 eV after 2.5 cycles.

  • Three-dimensional (3-D) semiconductor nanoarchitectures, including nano- and micro- rods, pyramids, and disks, are emerging as one of the most promising elements for future optoelectronic devices. Since these 3-D semiconductor nanoarchitectures have many interesting unconventional properties, including the use of large light-emitting surface area and semipolar/nonpolar nano- or micro-facets, numerous studies reported on novel device applications of these 3-D nanoarchitectures. In particular, 3-D nanoarchitecture devices can have noticeably different current spreading characteristics compared with conventional thin film devices, due to their elaborate 3-D geometry. Utilizing this feature in a highly controlled manner, color-tunable light-emitting diodes (LEDs) were demonstrated by controlling the spatial distribution of current density over the multifaceted GaN LEDs. Meanwhile, for the fabrication of high brightness, single color emitting LEDs or laser diodes, uniform and high density of electrical current must be injected into the entire active layers of the nanoarchitecture devices. Here, we report on a new device structure to inject uniform and high density of electrical current through the 3-D semiconductor nanoarchitecture LEDs using metal core inside microtube LEDs. In this work, we report the fabrications and characteristics of metal-cored coaxial $GaN/In_xGa_{1-x}N$ microtube LEDs. For the fabrication of metal-cored microtube LEDs, $GaN/In_xGa_{1-x}N/ZnO$ coaxial microtube LED arrays grown on an n-GaN/c-Al2O3 substrate were lifted-off from the substrate by wet chemical etching of sacrificial ZnO microtubes and $SiO_2$ layer. The chemically lifted-off layer of LEDs were then stamped upside down on another supporting substrates. Subsequently, Ti/Au and indium tin oxide were deposited on the inner shells of microtubes, forming n-type electrodes of the metal-cored LEDs. The device characteristics were investigated measuring electroluminescence and current-voltage characteristic curves and analyzed by computational modeling of current spreading characteristics.

  • 본 논문에서는 금속촉매를 이용하여 육각형 GaN 피라미드의 꼭지점 부분에만 마이크로 크기의 GaN 구조를 선택적으로 성장시킬 수 있는 결정 성장 방법에 대하여 연구하였다. GaN Template 위에 $SiO_2$ 막을 증착하고 3 ${\mu}m$의 원형 패턴을 형성하여 metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) 방법으로 선택적 결정 성장에 의해 GaN 피라미드를 성장한 후, photolithography 공정을 이용하여 피라미드 꼭지점 부분에만 Au화 Cr을 각각 증착하였다. GaN 피라미드 구조의 꼭지점 부근에만 금속이 증착된 시료를 MOVPE 반응관에 장착하고 10분 동안 GaN 마이크로 구조를 성장하였다. 성장 온도는 650, 700, $750^{\circ}C$로 변화를 주어 특성 변화를 알아보았다. 막대 형상의 마이크로 GaN 구조들은 {1-101} 결정면들을 구성하는 6개의 결정면에 대해 각각 수직한 방향으로 성장되었으며 이들 구조들의 형성조건과 모양은 성장온도와 금속의 종류에 의해 영향을 받는 것을 확인할 수 있었다.

  • Y₂O₃ 박막은 MFISFET형 FRAM의 절연층으로써 응용이 기대되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 ICP에서 Cl₂/Ar 플라즈마를 이용하여 Y₂O₃ 박막을 식각하였다. Y₂O₃박막의 식각율과 YMnO₃ 에 대한 Y₂O₃ 박막의 선택비를 Cl₂/(Cl₂+Ar) 가스혼합비에 따라 조사하였다. Cl₂/(Cl₂+Ar) 가스 혼합비가 0.2일 때 Y₂O₃ 박막의 식각 속도는 302Å/min 으로 최대였으며, 그때 YMnO₃ 에 대한 Y₂O₃ 박막의 선택비는 2.4 이었다. Cl₂가스의 첨가량에 따라 Y₂O₃박막의 식각 속도에 어떠한 영향이 있는지 조사하기 위해 OES를 이용하였고, 식각 후 표면 반응을 알아보기 위하여 XPS 분석을 수행하였다. XPS 분석 결과 Y과 Cl과의 화학 반응이 있음을 확인하였고 그러한 분석결과는 SIMS 분석으로 확인되었다.

  • 본 연구에서는 PET(PentaEthoxy Tanatalum:Ta(OC2H5)5) 유기금속 화합물 전구체를 사용하여 차세대 초고집적회로 제조시 고유전체 물질로 유망한 Ta2O5 박막을 열화학증착 방법에 의하여 증착하였다. 본 증착실험을 통하여 여러 가지 운속기체, 기판온도, 반응압력 등의 공정변수가 층덮힘에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였으며 Monte Carlo 전산모사 결과와 기판온도 변화에 따른 층덮힘 패턴의 변화에 대한 실험결과를 비교하여 부착계수를 산출하였다. 운송기체로는 N2, Ar, He을 바꿔가며 실험하였으며 He>N2>Artns으로 층덮힘이 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 이는 운송기체의 종류에 따라 운동량 확산도, 열 확산도, 물질 확산도 등의 이동현상 특성값들이 다르기 때문이라 생각된다. 기판온도의 증가는 운송기체의 종류에 관계없이 층덮힘을 악화시켰으며 도랑내부에서의 Knudsen 확산과 표면반응물의 탈착에 비해 표면반응이 보다 지배적인 역할을 담당함을 알 수 있었다. 또한 질소를 운송기체로 사용한 경우에 부착계수의 겉보기 활성화 에너지는 15.9Kcal/mol로 나타났다. 그리고 3Torr 이하에서 반응압력이 증가하는 반응압력이 증가하는 경우에는 물질 확산도의 감소 효과 때문에 층덮힘이 악화되었다. 본 연구결과 3Torr, 35$0^{\circ}C$에서 He 운송기체를 이용한 경우가 가장 우수한 층덮힘을 얻을 수 있는 최적 공정 조건임을 알 수 있었다.

  • High temperature silicon carbide Schottky diode was fabricated with Au deposited on poly 3C-SiC thin film grown on p-type Si(100) using atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition. The charge transport mechanism of the diode was studied in the temperature range of 300 K to 550 K. The forward and reverse bias currents of the diode increase strongly with temperature and diode shows a non-ideal behavior due to the series resistance and the interface states associated with 3C-SiC. The charge transport mechanism is a temperature activated process, in which, the electrons passes over of the low barriers and in turn, diode has a large ideality factor. The charge transport mechanism of the diode was analyzed by a Gaussian distribution of the Schottky barrier heights due to the Schottky barrier inhomogeneities at the metal-semiconductor interface and the mean barrier height and zero-bias standard deviation values for the diode was found to be 1.82 eV and $s_0$=0.233 V, respectively. The interface state density of the diode was determined using conductance-frequency and it was of order of $9.18{\times}10^{10}eV^{-1}cm^{-2}$.
