Coincidence Doppler broadening and positron lifetime methods in positron annihilation spectroscopy has been used to analyze defect structures in metal, semiconductor and polycrystal, respectively. The S parameter and the lifetime (${\tau}$) value show that the defects were strongly related with vacancies. A positive relationship existed between the scanning electron microscope (SEM) images and the positron annihilation spectroscopy (PAS). According to the SEM images and PAS results, measurements of the defects with PAS indicate that it was more affected by the defect than the purity.

열증착법에 의해서 온도 85$^{\circ}C$인 glass기판 위에 CdS 박막을 제작하였다. 두께가 200nm정도로 측정된 CdS박막은 공기 중에서 온도 25$0^{\circ}C$-55$0^{\circ}C$범위에서 각각 30분간 열처리 되었으며 이들 시료에 대하여 4-point probe, XRD, SEM, UV-Spectrophotometer 및 광발광 측정으로 전기적 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 이들의 일련의 실험값은 열처리 온도 37$0^{\circ}C$ 근처에서 구조의 변화를 보여주었는데, 열처리 온도에 대한 비저항아니 XRD, SEM 의 측정은 cubic로부터 hexagonal구조로의 변환을 나타내었다. 특히 상온에서 측정한 광발광에서 green edge emission(GEE)피이크가 2.42eV를 나타내었는데 이 때의 발광 중심은 열처리할 때 생긴 S-vacancy에 보상된 산소로 이루어진 'CdO'의 악셉터준위에 기인하는 것으로 해석되며 그 이온화 에너지는 약 0.16eV이었다.

In this paper, the emission and aging properties of ZnS:Cu electroluminescent device were experiment respectively at room temperature and 7$0^{\circ}C$ relative humidity 100%. ZnS:Cu and BaTiO$_3$were respectively used for phosphor and dielectric. While AC 100V on 400Hz frequency were applied to the devices at room temperature and 70$_3$relative humidity 100%, the change of brightness were measured and compared. The surface of aged devices were investigated by scanning electron microscope. With the continuously operated environment of room temperature and 7$0^{\circ}C$ relative humidity 100%, the decay time were measured and the dark spot and aging status on the surface of the device were investigated. ZnS:Cu electroluminescent properties were deteriorated by the Increased temperature and humidity. Also the deteriorated properties were confirmed by the brightness and surface chanties of device, and the aging mechanism from the simulation on sulfur vacancy and deep tracts density.

Carbon-based doping to MgB₂ superconductor is the simplest approach to enhance the critical current densities under magnetic fields. Carbon quantum dots is synthesized in this work as a carbon provider to MgB₂ superconductors. Polyvinyl Pyrrolidone is pyrolyzed and dispersed in dimethylfomamide solvent as a dopant to the mixture of Mg and B powders. Doped MgB₂ bulk samples clearly show the decrease of a-axis lattice constant, grain refinements, and broadening of FWHM of diffraction peaks compared to un-doped MgB₂ possibly due to the carbon substitution and/or boron vacancy at the boron site in MgB₂ lattice. Also, high-field J_c for the doped MgB₂ is enhanced significantly with the crossover about 3 T at 5 & 20 K when increasing the doping of carbon quantum dots.

We investigate the effects of magnesium (Mg) suppressor layer on the electrical performances and stabilities of amorphous indium-zinc-tin-oxide (a-ITZO) thin-film transistors (TFTs). Compared to the ITZO TFT without a Mg suppressor layer, the ITZO:Mg TFT exhibits slightly smaller field-effect mobility and much reduced subthreshold slope. The ITZO:Mg TFT shows improved electrical stabilities compared to the ITZO TFT under both positive-bias and negative-bias-illumination stresses. From the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy O1s spectra with fitted curves for ITZO and ITZO:Mg films, we observe that Mg doping contributes to an enhancement of the oxygen bond without oxygen vacancy and a reduction of the oxygen bonds with oxygen vacancies. This result shows that the Mg can be an effective suppressor in a-ITZO TFTs.

Results from PL and Raman spectroscopic analyses of HPHT (high-pressure high-temperature) treated type IIa diamonds are presented, and these spectral characteristics are compared with those of untreated diamonds of similar color and type. We identify a number of significant changes by 325 nm He/Cd laser excitation. Several peaks are removed completely, including H4, H3 system in HPHT treated diamond. The N3 system, however, increased in emission. Also we can find the behaviour of the nitrogen-vacancy related center N-V centers at 575 and 637.1 nm, as observed with 514 nm Ar ion laser excitation. When these centers are present, the FWHM (full width at half maximum) of 637.1 nm luminescence intensities offers a potential means of separating HPHT-treated from untreated type IIa diamonds. The width of 637.1 nm $(N-V)^-$line measured at the position oi half the peak's height are determine to range from 19.8 to $32.1cm^{-1}$ for HPHT treated diamonds.

$0.97Bi_{0.5+x}(Na_{0.78}K_{0.22})_{0.5-3x}TiO_3-0.03LaFeO_3$ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were fabricated by a solid state reaction method. $LaFeO_3$ additives were added to $Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.78}K_{0.22})_{0.5}TiO_3$ for volatile compensation of bismuth and sodium ions in the sintering process. To create A-site vacancies, the mole ratio and charge valence of A-site ions ($Bi^{3+}$, $Na^+$ and $K^+$) were controlled. The improved piezoelectric properties were observed by addition of $LaFeO_3$ and control of A-site vacancies. In particular, a $d_{33}^*(S_{max}/E_{max})$ value of 614pm/V and an electric field induced strain of 0.33% was observed in $0.97Bi_{0.505}(Na_{0.78}K_{0.22})_{0.485}TiO_3-0.03LaFeO_3$ ceramic.

We have investigated the effect of the concentration of oxygen vacancies on the characteristics of Mo-doped ZnO (MZO) thin films for the TCO (transparent conducting oxide). For this purpose, MZO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering at different substrate temperature from room temperature to 300℃. The electrical resistivity of the MZO films decreases with increasing substrate temperature up to 100℃ and then gradually increases at higher temperatures. To investigate the influences of the ambient gases, the flow rate of oxygen and hydrogen in argon was varied from 0.1 sccm to 0.5 sccm. The MZO thin films were preferentially oriented to the (002) direction, regardless of the ambient gases used. The electrical resistivity of the MZO thin films increased with increasing O₂ flow rates, whereas the electrical resistivity decreased sharply under an Ar+H₂ atmosphere and was nearly the same, regardless of the H₂ flow rate used. As the oxygen vacancy concentration increases, the resistivity intended to decrease. In conclusion, Oxygen vacancy affects the MZO thin film's electrical characteristics. All the films showed an average transmittance of over 80% in the visible range.
