  • The authors investigated the photoluminescence (PL) and the electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) from an magnesium (Mg)-doped GaN thin film with a delta-doped layer. The regularly doped sample shows a PL peak at 2.776 eV for the as-grown sample, and the peak shifts to 2.904 eV and increases in intensity for the annealed sample. The delta-doped sample also shows the same PL peak as does the regularly doped sample. However, only the annealed delta-doped layer shows a sharp EPR with a small isotropic Lande g-factor, $g_{II}$, of 2.029. This resonance is attributed to the delta-doped layer, which forms a hole-bound Mg-N atomic structure instead of the $Mg_{Ga}-V_N$ defect complex, indicating that the delta-doped sample was not optically activated to form PL centers but was instead electrically activated to form a hole-bound state.

  • Single phase $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ ceramics doped by 10 mol% of electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, were synthesized and their B-site cationic ordering structures were investigated by XRD and TEM. In the XRD patterns, only fundamental reflections were observed for the undoped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$, while the (h/2 $\textsc{k}$/2ι/2)(h,$\textsc{k}$,ι all odd) superlattice reflections resulting from the 1:1 ordering induced unit cell doubling were also observed for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. In the TEM selected area diffraction patterns, the (h/2 k/2 l/2)(h,k,l all odd) superlattice reflection spots as well as the fundamental reflection spots were observed for all the samples, but the relative intensities of the superlattice reflection spots to the fundamental reflection spots were significantly enhanced by the donor-doping. In the TEM dark-field images, antiphase boundaries were observed only for the donor-doped $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. It was therefore experimentally verified that doping by electron donors such as $La^3,\; Pr^{3+,4+},\; Nd^{3+},\; Sm^{3+}$, enhances the B-site cationic 1:1 ordering in $Pb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$. These experimental results were interpreted in terms of the charge compensation mechanism.

  • ZnO는 넓은 밴드갭(3.37eV)과 큰 액시톤(exciton) 결합에너지(60meV)를 가지는 II-VI족 화합물 반도체이다[1]. 이와같은 특성은 상온에서도 높은 재결합 효율이 기대되는 엑시톤 전이가 가능하여 자발적인 발광특성 및 레이저 발진을 위한 낮은 임계전압을 가져 일광효율이 큰 장점이 있다. 최근에는 ZnO의 전기적, 광학적, 자기적 특성을 높이기 위해 doping에 대한 연구가 많이 보고 되고 있다. 이중 ZnO내에 Mg을 doping하게 되면 Mg 조성에 따라 밴드갭이 3.3~7.7eV까지 변하게 된다. 그러나 이원계 상평형도에 따라 ZnO내에 고용될 수 있는 MgO의 고용도는 4at% 이하이다. 이는 ZnO는 Wurtzite 구조이고, MgO는 rocksalt 구조로 각각 결정구조가 다르기 때문이다. 본 연구는 열기상증착방법(thermal evaporation)으로 ZnO 템플레이트를 이용하여 MgZnO 나노막대를 합성하였고, Zn와 Mg의 서로 다른 녹는점을 이용해 2-step으로 성장을 하였다. 합성은 수평로를 사용하였으며, 반응온도 550, $700^{\circ}C$로 2-step으로 하였으며, 소스로 사용된 Zn(99.99%)과 Mg(99.99%) 분말을 산소를 직접 반응시켜 합성하였다. Ar 가스와 O2 가스를 각각 운반가스와 반응가스로 사용하였다. ZnO 템플레이트 위에 성장시킨 1차원 MgZnO 나노구조의 형태 및 구조적 특성을 FESEM과 TEM으로 분석하였다. 그리고 결정학적 특성은 XRD를 이용해 분석하였다.

  • Using the theoretical model of Auger electron emission, effects of MgO properties which include band gap energy, escape probability, gas ion, and doping elements on the yield of secondary electron emission were examined. The results indicated that the band gap of MgO must be decreased and escape probability must be enhanced in order to increase the yield of secondary electrons from Xe ions and that may proved to be a critical for achieving high luminance efficacy in ac-PDPs.

  • A novel $Ce^{3+}$ doped $(Ce_xLu_{1-x})_3MgAl_3SiO_{12}$ phosphor was successfully synthesized by a conventional solid-state reaction. Heat-treatment temperature was controlled from 1250 to $1550^{\circ}C$ for 5 h. XRD and PL properties were analyzed for the optimum heat-treatment condition. Ce doping concentration was varied from 2.0 to 10.0 mol% for the optimum Ce doping concentration. The PL intensity, peak wavelength and FWHM were calculated with the Ce doping concentration, and evaluated for the application to LED packaging. Particle size and morphology were also characterized for synthesized phosphor sample at optimum heat-temperature and Ce doping concentration.
