Interfacial properties of electrode and organic thin layer is one of the most important factor in performing a Light Emitting Diodes(LED). Phthalocyanine copper was used as a buffer layer to improve interface characteristic, so that device efficiency was improved. In this study, LEDs were fabricated as like structures of Indium-Tin-Oxide (ITO) / N,N' -Diphenyl-N,N'-di(m-tolyl)-benzidine (TPD) / 8-Hydroxyquinoline aluminum(Alq) / Aluminum(Al) and Indium-Tin-Oxide(ITO) / N,N'-Diphenyl-N,N' -di(m-tolyl)-benzidine(TPD) / 2-(4-Biphenylyl)-5(4-tert-butyl-phenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazole(PBD) / Aluminum(Al). In these devices, CuPC was layered at electrode/organic layer interface. As position is changing and thickness is changing, devices showed characteristic luminescence efficiency and luminescence inensity respectively. We showed in this study that luminescence efficiency was improved with CuPC layer in LEDs. The efficiency of device with layer CuPC is higher than that of 2 layer CuPC. However, the luminescence of 2 layer CuPC device got higher value.

In this work, we have seen the effect of hole-transporting layer in organic light-emitting diodes using N,N'-biphenyl-N,N'-bis-(3-methylphenyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine(TPD) and N,N'-biphenyl-N,N'-bis-(1-naphenyl)-[1,1'-biphenyl]-4,4'-diamine(NPB). NPB is regarded as a better hole trans porting material than TPD, since it has a higher glass transition temperature$(T_g)$. And current -voltage, luminance-voltage and external quantum efficiency of device were measured with the thickness variation of buffer layer using copper phathalocyanine(CuPc) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) at room temperature. We have obtained an improvement of External quantum efficiency when the CuPc 30[nm] and PTFE 1.0[nm] is used.

We have seen the effects of buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes using poly(N-vinylcarbazole)(PVK). Polymer PVK buffer layer was made using spin casting techniques. Two different types of spin casting have been applied; static coating and dynamic coating. Two device structures were fabricated; one is ITO/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al as a reference, and the other is ITO/PVK/TPD/Alq$_3$/Al to see the effects of buffer layer in organic light-emitting diodes. Current-voltage characteristics and luminous efficiency were measured with a variation of spin-casting methods and rpm speeds. We have obtained an improvement of luminous efficiency by a factor of two and half when the PVK buffer layer is used.

This paper describes the characteristics of poly (polycrystalline) 3C-SiC grown on SiOz and AlN substrates, respectively. The crystalline quality of poly 3C-SiC was improved from resulting in decrease of FWHM (full width half maximum) of XRD by increasing the growth temperature. The minimum growth temperature of poly 3C-SiC was $1100^{\circ}C$. The surface chemical composition and the electron mobility of poly 3C-SiC grown on each substrate were investigated by XPS and Hall Effect, respectively. The chemical compositions of surface of poly 3C-SiC films grown on $SiO_2$ and AlN were not different. However, their electron mobilities were $7.65\;cm^2/V.s$ and $14.8\;cm^2/V.s$, respectively. Therefore, since the electron mobility of poly 3C-SiC films grown on AlN buffer layer was two times higher than that of 3C-SiC/$SiO_2$, a AlN film is a suitable material, as buffer layer, for the growth of poly 3C-SiC thin films with excellent properties for M/NEMS applications.

This paper presents the Raman scattering characteristics of poly (polycrystalline) 3C-SiC thin films deposited on AlN buffer layer by atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) using hexamethyldisilane (MHDS) and carrier gases (Ar + $H_2$).The Raman spectra of SiC films deposited on AlN layer of before and after annealings were investigated according to the growth temperature of 3C-SiC. Two strong Raman peaks, which mean that poly 3C-SiC admixed with nanoparticle graphite, were measured in them. The biaxial stress of poly 3C-SiC/AlN was calculated as 896 MPa from the Raman shifts of 3C-SiC deposited at $1180^{\circ}C$ on AlN of after annealing.

We have grown $MgB_2$ superconducting thin films on the SiC buffer layers by means of hybrid physical-chemical vapor deposition (HPCVD) technique. Prior to that, SiC was first deposited on $Al_2O_3$ substrates at various temperatures from room temperature to $600^{\circ}C$ by using the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method in a vacuum atmosphere of ${\sim}10^{-6}$ Torr pressure. All samples showed a high transition temperature of ~40 K. The grain boundaries of $MgB_2$ samples with SiC layer are greater in amount, compare to that of the pure $MgB_2$ samples. $MgB_2$ with SiC buffer layer samples show interesting change in the critical current density ($J_c$) values. Generally, at both 5 K and 20 K measurements, at lower magnetic field, all $MgB_2$ films deposited on SiC buffer layers have low $J_c$ values, but when they reach higher magnetic fields of nearly 3.5 Tesla, $J_c$ values are enhanced. $MgB_2$ film with SiC grown at $600^{\circ}C$ has the highest $J_c$ enhancement at higher magnetic fields, while all SiC buffer layer samples exhibit higher $J_c$ values than that of the pure $MgB_2$ films. A change in the grain boundary morphologies of $MgB_2$ films due to SiC buffer layer seems to be responsible for $J_c$ enhancements at high magnetic fields.

We have studied electrical properties and luminous efficiency of organic light-emitting diodes(OLEDs) with different buffer layer and cathodes in a temperature range of 10 K and 300 K. Four different device structures were made. The OLEDs are based on the molecular compounds, N,N'-diphenyl-N,N'-bis(3-methylphenyl)-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine (TPD) as a hole transport, tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato) aluminum(III) (Alq$_3$) as an electron transport and omissive layer, and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) :poly (styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS ) as a buffer layer. And LiAl was used as a cathode. Among the devices, the ITO/PEDOT:PSS/TPD/Alq$_3$/LiAl structure has a low energy-barrier height for charge injection and show a good luminous efficiency. We have got a highly efficient and low-voltage operating device using the conductive PEDOT:PSS and low work-function LiAl. From current-voltage characteristics with temperature variation, conduction mechanisms are explained SCLC (space charge limited current) and tunneling one. We have also studied energy barrier height and luminous efficiency at various temperature.

High temperature superconducting coated conductor has various buffer structures on Ni-W alloy. We comparatively studied the growth conditions of a multi buffer layer $(CeO_2/YSZ/CeO_2)$ and a single buffer layer$(CeO_2)$ on textured Ni-W alloy tapes. XRD data showed that the qualities of in-plane and out-of-plane textures of the two type buffer structures were good. Also, we investigated the properties of SmBCO superconducting layer that was deposited on the two type buffer structure. The SmBCO superconducting properties on the single and multi buffer structure showed different critical current values and surface morphologies. FWHM of In-plane and out-of-plane textures were $7.4^{\circ},\;5.0^{\circ}$ in the top CeO2 layer of the multi-buffer layers of $CeO_2/YSZ/CeO_2$, and $7.3^{\circ},\;5.1^{\circ}$ in the $CeO_2$ single buffer layer. $1{\mu}m-thick$ SmBCO superconducting layers were deposited on two type buffer layer. $I_c$ of SmBCO deposited on single and multi buffer were 90 A/cm, 150 A/cm and corresponding $J_c$ were $0.9MA/cm^2,\;1.5MA/cm^2$ at 77K in self-field, respectively.

Highly concentrated p-type ZnO thin films can be obtained by doping of N, P and As elements. In this study, undoped ZnO buffer layers were prepared on a (0001) sapphire substrate by a ultra high vaccum pulsed laser deposition(UHV-PLD) method. ZnO buffer layers were deposited with various deposition temperature($400{\sim}700^{\circ}C$) at 350 mtorr of oxygen working pressure. Arsenic doped(1 wt%) ZnO thin films were deposited on the ZnO buffer layers by UHV-PLD. Crystallinity of the samples were evaluated by X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscopy. Optical, electrical properties of the ZnO thin films were estimated by photoluminescence(PL) and Hall measurements. The optimal condition of the undoped ZnO buffer layer for the deposition of As-doped ZnO thin films was at $600^{\circ}C$ of deposition temperature.
