  • GaN는 wurzite structure를 갖는 wide bandgap III-V족 반도체로서, 청색 반도체 laser diode (LD), light emitting diode (LED)등으로 응용되는 물질이다. InGaN quantum well은 GaN계의 청색 LD, LED 구조에서 활성층으로 사용되기 때문에 이에 대한 광학적 연구가 활발하다. InGaN는 GaN위에 성장하면 strain에 의해 piezoelectric 효과가 크게 나타나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 piezoelectric potential에 의해 외부에서 voltage가 가해지지 않은 상황에서도 InGaN quantum well내의 electron, hole의 wave function이 비대칭 potential의 영향을 받게된다.

  • We have proposed a method to calculate the absorption coefficients for the bound-to-continuum transitions in a strong biased quantum-well infrared photodetector. We have applied this method to a manufactured sample of typical device parameters, and obtained good agreements with experiments. The absorption coefficients evaluated are up to 5,700/cm at some particular operating conditions. We have also been able to make a qualitative explanation for the bias dependence of response.

  • In this paper, we synthesize ZnO wire on Si substrate by catalyst-free thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD). Each ZnO wire is grew up at different condition such as temperature and O2 flow rate. The Young's modulus of individual ZnO wires were estimated using quasi-static and dynamic measurements, as well as resonance frequency measurements. Using this system, current-voltage characteristics of each ZnO wire structure fabricated on a trench were measured. A new concept of electromechanical device structure combined with the piezoelectric effect of ZnO will be suggested in the end of this paper.

  • Debye temperature is an important thermodynamical factor in quantum dots (QDs); it can be used to determine the degree of homogeneity of a QD structure as well as to study the interdiffusion mechanism during growth. Direct estimation of the Debye temperature can be obtained using the Varshni relation. The Varshni relation is an empirical formula that can interpret the change of emission energy with temperature as a result of phonon interaction. On the other hand, phonons energy can be calculated using the Fan Expression. The Fan expression and Varshni relation are considered equivalent at a temperature higher than Debye temperature for InAs quantum dot. We investigated InAs quantum dot optically, the photoluminescence spectra and peak position dependency on temperature has been discussed. We applied a mathematical treatment using Fan expression, and the Varshni relation to obtain the Debye temperature and the phonon energy for InAs quantum dots sample. Debye temperature increase about double compared to bulk crystal. We concluded that the In/Ga interdiffusion during growth played a major role in altering the quantum dot thermodynamical parameters.

  • A new class of quantum low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes whose parity-check matrices are dual-containing matrices constructed based on lines of Euclidean geometries (EGs) is presented. The parity-check matrices of our quantum codes contain one and only one 4-cycle in every two rows and have better distance properties. However, the classical parity-check matrix constructed from EGs does not satisfy the condition of dual-containing. In some parameter conditions, parts of the rows in the matrix maybe have not any nonzero element in common. Notably, we propose four families of fascinating structure according to changes in all the parameters, and the parity-check matrices are adopted to satisfy the requirement of dual-containing. Series of matrix properties are proved. Construction methods of the parity-check matrices with dual-containing property are given. The simulation results show that the quantum LDPC codes constructed by this method perform very well over the depolarizing channel when decoded with iterative decoding based on the sum-product algorithm. Also, the quantum codes constructed in this paper outperform other quantum codes based on EGs.

  • PHOLED devices which have the structure of ITO/HAT-CN(5nm)/NPB(50nm)/EML(47nm)/TPBi(10nm)/Alq3(20nm)/LiF(0.8nm)/Al(100nm) are fabricated to investigate the diffusion length of the triplet exciton by using double-quantum-well(DQE) EML structure. To fabricate DQW structures, Ir(ppy)3(2% wt) and Ir(btp)2(8% wt) are used as green and red emission zones, respectively. In DQW structured EML, as shown in Fig. 1, 1nm thick layers of green and red emission zones are located middle of the EML, and the distance between these wells(x) is changed from 0nm to 10nm. As shown in Fig. 2, the emission spectra from DQW PHOLED devices are changed with different x. The intensity of the green emission(520nm) is decreased when x is decreased, and it goes to near zero when x=0nm. This behavior can be identified as the diffusion of the triplet excitons from Ir(ppy)3 to Ir(btp)2 by the Dexter energy transfer(DET). From the external quantum efficiency(EQE) of the red emission, as shown in Fig. 3, the diffusion length of the triplet excitons can be determined by the equation of DET rate, R=A Exp(-2RDA/L), where RDA is donor-acceptor distance and L is the sum of the van der Wals radii. As a result, the measured data of the red EQEs with different x are identified to theoretical result from the equation of DET rate(Fig. 4). From this results, we could confirm that the diffusion length of the triplet excitons can be determined by using DQW structure and this method is very useful to investigate the behavior of the excitons in PHOLEDs.

  • Organic electroluminescent devices (OLEDs) have received a great deal of attention due to their potential application as full-color displays. Europium complexes are known as excellent red color-emitting materials for OLEDs since they show intense photoluminescence at around 610 nm with a sharp spectral bandwidth. In this study, triple-layer and multiple quantum-well structures consisting of Eu$(TTA)_3$(bpy) complex well layer sandwiched triphenyldiamine derivative (TPD) layers were fabricated and their photoluminescent characteristics were investigated. Sharp emission at the wavelength of 615 nm has been observed from the triple-layer and multiple quantum-well structures containing Eu complex. Details on the electrical properties of these structures will be also discussed.

  • We have investigated the lasing characteristics of the InGaAs quantum dot laser diode (QD-LD) and InGaAs quantum well laser diode (QW-LD) operated at the 980 nm wavelength range. The 980-nm lasers are used as a pumping source for a erbium-doped fiber amplifier (EDFA) and it shows high efficiency in long-haul optical fiber network. We have compared the threshold current density, the characteristic temperature, the optical power and the internal efficiency of QD-LD and QW-LD under a pulsed current condition. The QD-LD shows superior performances to the QW-LD. Further optimization of a LD structure is expected to the superior performances of a QD-LD.

  • 처음 유기물의 인광 발견 이후 Host-dopant 시스템을 이용하여 Emission layer(EML)을 Co-deopsition 하는 방법으로 주로 인광 유기 발광 다이오드를 제작 하였다. [1] co-deposition을 이용해 만든 유기 발광 다이오드에 많은 장점이 있지만, 반대로 소자를 제작하는데 있어서는 많은 문제점을 가지고 있다. [2-4] 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 co-deposition 대신 non-doped Multi Quantum Well(MQW) 구조를 사용하여 doping 하지 않는 방법을 이용하는 논문들이 보고 되고 있다. Hole, electron, exciton이 MQW 구조를 지나면서, dopant well 안에 갇히게 되고, 그 안에서 다른 layer 간에 energy transfer와, hole-electron leakage가 줄어 들어, 더 효율적인 유기 발광 다이오드를 만들 수 있게 된다. [5-7] 이 연구에서는 CBP를 Potential Barrier로 사용하고, Ir(ppy)3 (Green dopant), Ir(btp)2 (Red dopant) 를 각각 Potential Well로 사용하였고, 두께는 CBP 9nm, dopant 1nm로 하였다. 이러한 소자를 만들고 dopant를 3개의 well에 적당히 배치하여, 각 well에서의 실험적인 발광 량 과, EML 안에서의 발광 mechanism 그리고 각 potential barrier를 줄여가며 dexter, forster에 의한 energy transfer에 대하여 알 수 있었다.
