GaAs/AlGaAs quantum-wire (QWR) gain-coupled distributed-feedback (GC-DFB) lasers are fabricated and characterized Constant metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) growth is used to avoid grating overgrowth during the fabrication of DFB structures. Numerical calculation shows large gain anisotropy by optical feedback along the DFB directions near Bragg wavelength. DFB lasing via QWR active gratings is also experimentally achieved.

Textured Ce$O_{2}$ buffers for YBCO coated conductors were deposited on biaxially textured Ni substrate by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition The texture of deposited Ce$O_{2}$ films was varied with deposition temperature(T) and oxygen partial pressure($Po_{2}$). ($\ell$ 00) textured Ce$O_{2}$ films were deposited at T= 500~$520^{\circ}C$, $Po_{2}$= 0.90~3.33 Torr. The growth rate of the Ce$O_{2}$ films was 150~200 nm/min at T= $520^{\circ}C$ and $Po_{2}$= 2.30 Torr, which was much faster than that prepated by other physical deposition method.

GaN-related compound semiconductors were grown on the corrugated interface substrate using a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition system to increase the optical power of white LEDs. The patterning of substrate for enhancing the extraction efficiency was processed using an inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching system and the surface morphology of the etched sapphire wafer and that of the non-etched surface were investigated using an atomic force microscope. The structural and optical properties of GaN grown on the corrugated interface substrate were characterized by a high-resolution x-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, atomic force microscope and photoluminescence. The roughness of the etched sapphire wafer was higher than that of the non-etched one. The surface of III-nitride films grown on the hemispherically patterned wafer showed the nano-sized pin-holes that were not grown partially. In this case, the leakage current of the LED chip at the reverse bias was abruptly increased. The reason is that the hemispherically patterned region doesn't have (0001) plane that is favor for GaN growth. The lateral growth of the GaN layer grown on (0001) plane located in between the patterns was enhanced by raising the growth temperature ana lowering the reactor pressure resulting in the smooth surface over the patterned region. The crystal quality of GaN on the patterned substrate was also similar with that of GaN on the conventional substrate and no defect was detected in the interface. The optical power of the LED on the patterned substrate was $14\%$ higher than that on the conventional substrate due to the increased extraction efficiency.

The room temperature optical transmission spectra of GaN /InGaN/GaN single quantum wells (SQW) and InGaN/GaN heterostructures grwon by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition have been measured. The dependence of the absorption edges of the GaN/InGaN/GaN SQW on the well width has been determined from the transmission spectra. The result shows that the absorption edge of GaN/InGaN/GaN SQW shifts towards lower energy as increasing the well width. The dependence of the absorption edges of the InGaN/GaN heterostructures on InN mole fraction has also been determined from the transmission spectra. The result is compared with calculated values obtained from Vegards's laws. Our result shows a good agreement with the calculated values.

$In_{1-x}Ga_xAs$ epitaxial layers were grown at 76 Torr by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD). Growth rate did not change much with growth temperature. Surface morphology of $In_{1-x}Ga_xAs$ epitaxial layer was affected by lattice mismatch, growth temperature and $AsH_3/(TMIn+TMGa)$ ratio. A high quality epilayer showed a full width at half maximum of 2.8 meV by photoluminescence measurement at 5K. The composition of the $In_{1-x}Ga_xAs$ was determined by the relative gas phase diffusion of TMIn and TMGa. Lattice mismatch and growth temperature were the most important variables that determine the electrical properties of $In_{1-x}Ga_xAs$ epitaxial layers. At optimized growth condition, it was possible to obtain a high quality $In_{1-x}Ga_xAs$ epilayers with a electron concentration as low as $8{\times}10^{14}/cm^3$ and an electron mobility as high as 11,000$\textrm{cm}^2$/Vsec at room temperature.

Surface photovoltage spectroscopy was used to study $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P/GaAs$ grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition(MOCVD). Energy gap related transition in GaAs and $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P$ were observed. By measuring the frequency dependence of $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P/GaAs$, we observed that SPV line shape does not chance, whereas the amplitude change. This results is due to the difference in the lifetimes of the photocarriers in GaAs and in $In_{0.5}(Ga_{1-x}Al_x)_{0.5}P$. We also have evaluated the parameters that describe the temperature dependences of the band gap.

Lattice-matched InAIAs epilayers were grown on (001) InP substrate by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The effects of growth conditions on the properties of InAIAs were analyzed, and InGaAs/InAIAs single and multiple quantum wells were successfully grown. It was observed that the optical property of InAIAs epilayers was improved in the temperature range of 620~$700^{\circ}C$ as the growth temperature increased due to the reduction of oxygen incorporation, however, the crystallinity decreased at temperatures higher than $750^{\circ}C$ due to the degraded crystallinity of the bufter layers. The enhanced incorporation of AI into epilayer was observed at high $AsH_3$flow rates and it was explained in terms of the differences in bond strengths of AI-As and In-As. The measured photoluminescence peak energies from InGaAs/InAIAs single quantum wells were consistent with the calculated ones based on transfer matrix method. High-order satellite peaks and fine thickness fringes were observed by high-resolution x-ray diffraction, implying that the high-quality multiple quantum wells with abrupt heterointerfaces were grown.

GaAs on Si grown via metalorganic chemical vapor deposition is demonstrated using various Si substrate thicknesses and three types of dislocation filter layers (DFLs). The bowing was used to measure wafer-scale characteristics. The surface morphology and electron channeling contrast imaging (ECCI) were used to analyze the material quality of GaAs films. Only 3-㎛ bowing was observed using the 725-㎛-thick Si substrate. The bowing shows similar levels among the samples with DFLs, indicating that the Si substrate thickness mostly determines the bowing. According to the surface morphology and ECCI results, the compressive strained indium gallium arsenide/GaAs DFLs show an atomically flat surface with a root mean square value of 1.288 nm and minimum threading dislocation density (TDD) value of 2.4×10⁷ cm^-2. For lattice-matched DFLs, the indium gallium phosphide/GaAs DFLs are more effective in reducing the TDD than aluminum gallium arsenide/GaAs DFLs. Finally, we found that the strained DFLs can block propagate TDD effectively. The strained DFLs on the 725-㎛-thick Si substrate can be used for the large-scale integration of GaAs on Si with less bowing and low TDD.
