Hydrogen concentration depth profiles in homoepitaxial Si(001) films grown from hyper-thermal Si beams generated by ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) ion-beam sputtering have been measured by nuclear reaction analyses as a function of film growth temperature and deposition rate. Bulk H concentrations CH in the crystalline Si layers were found tio be below detection limits, 1${\times}$1019cm-3, with no indication of significant H surface segregation at the crystalline/amorphous interface region. This is quite different than the case for growth by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) where strong surface segregation was observed for similar deposition conditions with average CH values of 1${\times}$1020cm-3 in the amorphous overlayer. The markedly decreased H concentrations in the present experiments are due primarily to hydrogen desorption by incident hyperthermal Si atoms. Reduced H surface coverages during growth combined with collisionally-induced filling of interisland trenches and enhanced interlayer mass transport provide an increase in critical epitaxial thicknesses by up to an order of magnitude over previous MBE results.

Characteristics of GaAE epilayers grown on (100) CaAs wa(tors by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) under various single crystal growing conditions were investigated. In fabrica-ting GaAs, epilayer by MBE, the most important factors are a substrate temperature(ts) and a flux density ratio (As/Ga). In this experiment, the substrate temperature was varied in the range of 48$0^{\circ}C$ to $650^{\circ}C$ and As and Ga cell temperatures were varied in the range of 218$^{\circ}C$ to 256$^{\circ}C$ and 876$^{\circ}C$ to 98$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. At the substrate temperature of 54$0^{\circ}C$, As cell temperature of 23$0^{\circ}C$, and Ga cell temperature of 91$0^{\circ}C$, the As/Ga ratio was 5"10, the surface morphology was most smooth . Investigation of As-stabilized surface by RHEED and of depth profile by SIM5 showed that As is less stable than Ga. Also, X-ray diffraction measurement revealed that single crystals of (400) and (200) were formed at the both sub-strate temperatures of 52$0^{\circ}C$ and 54$0^{\circ}C$.TEX>.

In this work, we reported the sulfur compositional variation of ZnS$\_$x/Se$\_$1-x/ epitaxial layers with growth temperature and BEP ration of ZnX/Se/)P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/) grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The sulfur composition of ZnSSe epitaxial layers was varied sensitively on the growth temperature and show different linear relationship with growth temperature and BEP ration of ZnS/Se(P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/), which revealed -0.107 %$\^{C}$ at (P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/)=0.30 and -0.052 %$\^{C}$ at (P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/)=0.158 rspectively. A reference data for the accurate control of the sulfur composition and the growth of high quality ZnSSe/GaAs epitaxial layers was provided.

현재 세계적으로 에너지 공급원의 다변화가 시급한 실정이며 그 후보로 태양에너지, 풍력 및 수력에너지와 같은 신재생 에너지에 대한 연구분야가 부각되고 있다. 전체 에너지 중 신재생 에너지의 비중은 빠르게 증가되고 있으며, 그 중에서도 태양광에너지의 분야가 가장 활발히 연구되고 있다. 특히, III-V족 화합물 반도체 태양전지는 직접 천이형 밴드갭을 가지고 있어 기존 실리콘 태양전지에 비해 광 흡수율이 높은 장점을 가지고 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE)장치를 이용하여 성장온도에 따른 p-n접합 GaAs 태양전지 구조를 제작하여, 광전변환 효율과 결함구조 관련성을 조사하였다. 먼저 Si이 $1{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$으로 도핑된 n형 GaAs기판위에 성장온도 $480^{\circ}C$와 $590^{\circ}C$에서 Be을 $5{\times}10^{18}cm^{-3}$ 도핑한 p 형 GaAs를 200 nm 두께로 각각 성장하여, 2개의 p-n 접합 GaAs 태양전지 구조를 제작하였다. 시료의 전기적 특성과 결함상태는 Capacitance-Voltage (C-V) 와 Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS)를 사용하여 조사하였다. DLTS 측정을 위해 p-형의 GaAs박막 위에 Au(300 nm)/Pt(30 nm)/Ti(30 nm)를 e-beam evaporator로 증착한 후, 직경 $300{\mu}m$의 메사 에칭으로 p-n접합 다이오드 구조를 제작하였다. 본 연구를 통해 GaAs p-n접합구조 성장온도에 따른 광전변환 효율과 결함상태와의 물리적인 연관성을 논의할 것이다.

We report the growth of HgCdTe by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE), using (211)B CdTe/Si substrates grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The surface morphology of these films is very smooth with hillock free. The etch pit densities (EPD) and full widths at half maximum (FWHM) of x-ray rocking curves exhibited that the crystalline quality of HgCdTe epilayer on MBE grown CdTe/Si was improved compare to HgCdTe on GaAs substrate. The Hall parameters of undoped HgCdTe layers on CdTe/Si showed n-type behavior with carrier concentration of $8{\times}10^{14}/cm^3$ at 77K. But HgCdTe on GaAs showed p-type conductivity due to in corporation of p-type impurities during GaAs substrate preparation. It is thought that these results are applicable for large area HgCdTe forcal plane arrays of $1024{\times}1024$ format and beyound.

We measured surface photovoltage (SPV) of $Al_{0.24}Ga_{0.76}As/GaAs$ epilayer grown by molecular beam epitixy (MBE). The band gap energies of $Al_{0.24}Ga_{0.76}As/GaAs$ epilayer, GaAs substrate and buffer layer obtained from SPV signals are 1.70, 1.40 and 1.42 eV, respectively. There results are in good agreements with photoreflectance (PR) measurement. The measured SPV intensity of GaAs substrate is three times larger than $Al_{0.24}Ga_{0.76}$Asepilayer by carrier mobility difference. The parameters of Varshni equation were determined from the SPV spectra as a function of temperature.
