  • GaN buffer layer and epilayer have been grown on sapphire (0001) by metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). GaN buffer layer ranging from 26 nm to 130 nm in thickness was grown at 55$0^{\circ}C$ prior to the 4 $\mu\textrm{m}$ thick GaN epitaxial deposition at 110$0^{\circ}C$. After GaN buffer layer growth, buffer layer surface was examined by atomic force microscopy (AFM). As the thickness of GaN buffer layer was increased, surface morphology of GaN epilayer was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXRD) and Raman spectroscopy were employed to study crystallinity of GaN epilayers. Optical properties of GaN epilayers were measured by photoluminescence (PL). The epilayer grown with a thin buffer layer had rough surface, and the epilayer grown with a thick buffer layer had mirror-like surface of epilayer. Although the stress on the latter was larger than on the former, its crystallinity was much better. These results imply that the internal free energy is decreased in case of the thick buffer layer. Decrease in internal free energy promotes the lateral growth of the GaN film, which results in the smoother surface and better crystallinity.

  • We fabricated the distributed feedback (DFB) InP/InGaAs/InP grating structures on InP (100) substrates by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, and their structural properties were investigated by atomic force microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. Self-assembled InAs/InAlGaAs quantum dots (QDs) were grown on the InP/InGaAs/InP grating structures by molecular beam epitaxy, and their optical properties were compared with InAs/InAlGaAs QDs without grating structure. The duty of the grating structures was about 30%. The PL peak position of InAs/InAlGaAs QDs grown on the grating structure was 1605 nm, which was red-shifted by 18 nm from that of the InAs/InAlGaAs QDs without grating structure. This indicates that the formation of InAs/InAlGaAs QDs was affected by the existence of the DFB grating structures.

  • ZnO nanorods fabricated on a Zn substrate pre-coated with ZnO as a seed layer by the hydrothermal method were studied mainly as a function of ZnO precursor concentration. Characteristic features by using field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were investigated to define the changed micro-structure and crystalline phase of the ZnO nanorods according to the experimental conditions. The nanorod morphology strongly depended on the precursor concentration. For example, ZnO nanorods vertically aligned with a hexagonal (002) oriented structure with a diameter of 600~700 nm and length of $6.75{\mu}m$ were clearly observed at the highest concentration of 0.015 M. The strong hexagonal structure was believed to be associated with the highest photoluminescene (PL) intensity and a promising voltage value of ca. 6.069 V at $1000{\mu}A$.

  • A homogeneous and stable ZnO sol was prepared by dissolving the zinc acetate dihydrate(Zn(CH$_3$COO)$_2$$.$2H$_2$O) in solution of isopropanol((CH$_3$)$_2$$.$CHOH) and monoethanolamine(MEA:H$_2$NCH$_2$CH$_2$OH). ZnO thin films were prepared by sol-gel spin-coating method and investigated for c-axis preferred orientation and physical properties with preheating temperature. The c-axis growth had a difference as increaing preheating temperature. ZnO thin film preheated at 275$^{\circ}C$ and post-heated at 650$^{\circ}C$ was highly oriented along the (002) plane. After preheating at 200∼300$^{\circ}C$ and post-heating at 650$^{\circ}C$, the transmittance of ZnO thin films by UV-vis. measurement was over 85% in visible range and exhibited absorption edges at about 370 nm. The optical band gap energy was obtained about 3.22 eV, The photoluminescence emission characteristics of ZnO thin film preheated at 275$^{\circ}C$ and post-heated at 650$^{\circ}C$ was found to orange emission(620 nm, 2.0 eV) by PL measurement, which revealed the possibility for application of inorganic photoluminescence device.

  • Eu doped YRO$_4$ (R=As, Nb, P, V) red phosphors were prepared by the combinatorial chemistry method. The quaternary material library of tetrahedron-type composition array was designed to investigate the luminescence of the host material under UV and VUV excitations (254, 147 nm). The photoluminescent characteristics of the samples were comparable to the commercially available red phosphors such as (Y, Gd)BO$_3$: $Eu^{3+}$ and Y$_2$O$_3$: In view of the luminescence yield, V rich region was found to be optimum under UV excitation. But the results under VUV excitation were different from those of UV excitation, the samples of the composition containing a large amount of P shows the highest luminescence. Especially, higher luminescence was obtained in $Y_{0.9}$(A$S_{0.06}$N$B_{0.06}P_{0.83}V_{0.06}$) O$_4$: $Eu_{0.1}$ phosphors than commercial (Y, Gd)BO$_3$red phosphors under 147 nm excitation.

  • This study was carried to investigate the changes in physical and chemical properties of Yukwa during preparation with addition of antioxidants and to develop its storage condition. Antioxidants (tocopherol and Oxyfos) were used in syrup coating and the packaging materials used were PET/EVOH $(16\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P1 and PET/EVOH $(24\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P2 (YOP1: P1 with Oxyfos, YOP2 : P2 with Oxyfos, YTP1 : P1 with tocopherol, YTP2 : P2 with tocopherol). Color values measured for Yukwa showed that L values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were changed little during storage while a and b values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were slightly decreased. Hardness and chewiness in textural properties were also decreased during storage. Yukwa packed in YOPl and YOP2 maintained less than 40 in peroxide value during for 12 weeks of storage period. The major fatty acid composition of frying oil were linoleic acid (54.2%), oleic acid (23.4%), palmitic acid (11.3%), linolenic acid (6.5%) and stearic acid (4.6%). There was no difference in composition of fatty acid during storage. Sensory evaluation (Yukwa odor and rancid odor) showed very similar results with determined by electronic nose. YTP1 and YTP2 had maintained sensory characteristics of Yukwa during 10 weeks storage.

  • Thermal stabilizing effect of $Yb^{3+},\;Er^{3+}$ codoping into $TiO_2$ powder prepared by sol-gel method and its upconversion characteristics were analyzed. The effect of $TiO_2:Yb^{3+},\;Er^{3+}$ ions on crystallinity and phase transition was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The change of band-gap energy induced from Yb and Er codoping was analyzed by UV-Vis. The band-gap energy of $TiO_2$ have been slightly narrowed by $Yb^{3+},\;Er^{3+}$ codoping, which indicated that the $Yb^{3+},\;Er^{3+}$ ions can enhance the photo-catalytic property of $TiO_2$. green and red up-conversions of $Yb^{3+}$ and $Er^{3+}$ co-doped $Y_2O_3:Yb^{3+},\;Er^{3+}$ phosphor were analyzed by PL equipped with 980 nm laser.

  • 최근 flexible OLED의 구동에 사용하기 위한 유기박막트랜지스터(Organic Thin Film Transistor, OTFT)의 연구에서는 용매에 용해되어 spin coating이 가능한 재료의 개발에 관심을 두고 있다. 현재 pentacene으로는 아직 spin coating으로 제작할 수 있는 상용화된 제품이 없고 spin coating이 가능한 활성층 물질(active material)로 P3HT가 쓰이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 용해 가능한 P3HT 활성층 물질과 여러 종류의 용해 가능한 게이트 절연물(gate insulator, Gl)을 사용하여 안정된 소자를 구현할 수 있는 공정을 개발하는 목적으로 metal-insulator-semironductor(MIS) 소자를 제작하여 C-V 특성을 측정하고 분석하였다. 먼저 7mm${\times}$7mm 크기의 pyrex glass 시편 위에 바닥 전극으로 $1600{\AA}$ Au을 증착하고 spin coating 방식을 이용하여 PVP, PVA, PVK, BCB, Pl의 5종류의 게이트 절연층을 각각 형성하였고 그 위에 같은 방법으로 P3HT를 코팅하였다. P3HT 코팅 시 bake 공정의 유무와 spin rpm의 변화에 따른 P3HT의 두께를 측정하였다. Gl의 종류별로 주파수에 따른 capatltancc를 측정하여 비교, 분석하였다. C-V 측정 결과 PVP, PVA, PVK, BCB, Pl의 단위 면적당 capacitance 값은 각각 1.06, 2.73, 2.94, 3.43, $2.78nF/cm^2$로 측정되었다. Threshold voltage, $V_{th}$는 각각 -0.4, -0.7, -1.6, -0.1, -0.2V를 나타냈다. 주파수에 따른 capacitance 변화율을 측정한 결과 Gl 물질 모두 주파수가 높을수록 capacitance가 점점 감소하는 경향을 보였으나 1${\sim}$2nF 이내의 범위에서 작은 변화율만 나타냈다. P3HT의 두께와 bake 온도를 변화시켜 C-V 값을 측정한 결과 차이는 없었다. FE-SEM으로 관찰한 결과에서도 두께나 온도에 따른 P3HT의 표면 morphology 차이를 확인할 수 없었다. 본 연구에서 PVK와 P3HT의 조합이 수율(yield)면에서 가장 안정적이면서 $3.43\;nF/cm^2$의 가장 높은 capacitance 값을 나타내고 $V_{th}$ 값 또한 -1.6V로 가장 낮은 값을 보였다.

  • Ba2-xSrxSiO4:Eu2+ phosphor particles with the high photoluminescence (PL) intensity under long wavelength ultraviolet (UV) were prepared by spray pyrolysis. The photoluminescence, morphological and crystalline characteristics of $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis were investigated. $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles prepared by spray pyrolysis had various colors from bluish green to yellow by changing the ratio of barium and strontium of the host material. In case of x=0, the main emission peak of $Ba_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was 500 nm. In case of x=2, the main emission peak of $Sr_2SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor was 554nm. $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles obtained by spray pyrolysis had spherical shape and hollow structure. On the other hand, the post-treated $Ba_{2-x.}Sr_{x.}SiO_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles had large size and irregular shape. The $Ba_{1.488}Sr_{0.5}SiO_4:Eu_{0.012}{^{2+}}$ phosphor particles had the maximum PL intensity after post-treatment at temperature of $1300^{\circ}C$ for 3h under reduction atmosphere.
