본 연구에서는 고출력 소자로서 각광받고 있는 AlGaN/GaN HEMT 2$\times$100 $\mu\textrm{m}$ 소자(사파이어 기판)에 대해 열 효과가 포함된 대신호 모델링을 수행하였다. 완성된 대신호 모델을 이용하여 9 mm, 15 mm 사이즈 소자로의 스케일링을 통해 전력증폭기를 설계하였으며 제작된 결과와 비교, 해석하였다. 대신호 모델링은 수렴성과 해석 속도면에서 탁월한 장점을 갖는 수식 기반의 경험적 방법을 사용하였다. Pulsed I-V 측정을 통하여 열모델의 가장 중요한 파라미터인 열 시상수 및 열 저항을 추출하였으며 이를 통하여 완벽한 열 모델 제작이 가능하였다. 제작된 전력증폭기 모듈의 측정결과와 비교를 통하여 본 연구에서 제안된 열 모델이 매우 정확함을 확인할 수 있으며 전력증폭기와 같이 큰 사이즈의 소자를 사용해야 하는 회로의 경우에는 열 효과가 포함된 모델을 사용하여 더욱 정확한 모델링 결과를 얻을 수 있음을 확인할 수 있다.

New single-source precursor, [AlCI3:NH2tBu] was synthesized for AlN thin f film processing with AICI3 (Aluminum Chloride) and tBuNH2 (tert-butylamine). AlN thin films for packaging aspplication were deposited on sapphire substrate by a atmosph하ie-pressure MOCVD. In most of other study methyl-based AI precursors w were used for source, But herein Aluminum Chloride was used for as AI source i in order to prevent the carbon contamination in the films and stabilize the p precursor. New precursor showed the very high gas vapor pressure so it allowed to m make the film under atmospheric-pressure and get the high purified film. High q quality AlN thin film was obtained at 700 to $900^{\circ}C$. The new precursor was p purified by a sublimation technique and help to fabricate high purity film. It s showed high vapor pressure, which is able to a critieal factor for the high purity a and atmospheric CVD of AlN. High Quality AIN thin film was obtained at $700-900^{\circ}C$. The AIN film was characterized by RBS

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a functional material with interesting optical and electrical properties, a wide band gap (more than 3.3 eV), a high transmittance in the visible light region, piezoelectric properties, and a high n-type conductivity. This material has been investigated for use in many applications, such as transparent electrodes, blue light-emitting diodes, and ultra-violet detector. ZnO films grown under low oxygen pressure by thin film deposition methods show low resistivity and large free electron concentration. Therefore, reducing the background carrier concentration in ZnO films is one of the major challenges ahead of realizing high-performance ZnO-based optoelectronic devices. In this study, we deposited ZnO thin films on sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) with employing an oxygen plasma source to decrease the background free-electron concentration and enhance the crystalline quality. Then, the substrate temperature was varied between 200 'C to 900 'C The vacuum chamber was initially evacuated to a pressure of $10^{-6}$ Torr, and then a pure $O_2$ gas was introduced into the chamber and the pressure during deposition was maintained at $10^{-2}$ Torr. Crystallinity and orientation of ZnO films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The film surface was analyzed with atomic force microscope (AFM). And electrical properties were measured at room temperature by Hall measurement.

열적으로 이온화된 N과 증기상태의 Ga을 $300~730^{\circ}C$의 온도 범위에서 직접 반응시켜 (001)Si과 (00.1)사파이어 기판 위에 GaN박막의 성장 초기 단계에서는 GaN의 성장률이 증가한 후, 결정 핵을 중심으로 수평방향으로서 성장과 합체에 의하여 성장률의 변화가 일정 값에 달하였다. 이 연구에서 성장한 GaN박막에 대한 XPS분석 결과 낮은 온도에서 성장된 GaN박막은 진공 chamber 내의 산소가 성장된 박막 내에 많이 혼입 되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 낮은 온도, 짧은 시간 동안 성장된 표면은 Ga덩어리들도 도포 되었다. 그러나, 기판온도와 성장시간이 증가함에 따라 이들은 피라미드 형태의 결정들로 성장된 후 원형고리 형태의 결정으로 합체되었다. 특히 N-소스의 공급이 충분한 경우에는 판상의 결정으로 성장되었다. 20K의 온도에서 측정된 PL스펙트럼에서는 3.32eV와 3.38eV에서 불순물과 관련된 발광이 관찰되었다.

Low-temperature grown (LTG) InGaAs epilayers were grown by MBE technique for studying a correlation between terahertz (THz) emission and the intrinsic defects. The 1.2-um-thick Be-compensated LTG-InGaAs epilayers were prepared on SI-InP:Fe substrate at $200-250^{\circ}C$, and subsequently in-situ annealed under As environment at $550^{\circ}C$ for 5-30 minutes. The carrier concentration/mobility and the crystalline structure were analyzed by the Hall effect and the x-ray diffraction (XRD), respectively, and the carrier lifetime were determined by the fs time-resolved pump-probe spectroscopy. THz generation from LTG-InGaAs was carried out by a Ti-sapphire laser (800 nm) of a pulse width of 190 fs at a repetition of 76 MHz. Figure shows the spectral amplitude of generated waves in the THz region. As the growth temperature of epilayer increases, the amplitude is enhanced. However, two samples grown at $200^{\circ}C$, as-grown and annealed, show almost no difference in the spectral amplitude. This suggests that the growth temperature is critical in the formation of defect states involved in THz emission. We are now investigating the correlations between the XRD band attributed to defects, the Hall parameter, and the spectral amplitude of generated THz wave.

AlN epilayers were grown on a c-plane sapphire substrate using hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE). A series of AlN epilayers were grown at $1120^{\circ}C$ with V/III ratios 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5, and the influence of V/III ratio on their properties was investigated. As the V/III ratio was increased, the surface roughness (RMS roughness), Raman shift of $E_2$ high peaks and full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of symmetrical (002) & asymmetrical (102) of the AlN epilayers increased. However, the intensities of the Raman $E_2$ high peaks were reduced. This indicates that the crystal quality of the grown AlN epilayers was degraded by activation of the parasitic reaction as the V/III ratio was increased. Smooth surface, stress free and high crystal quality AlN epilayers were obtained at the V/III ratio of 1.5. The crystal quality of AlNepilayers is worsened by the promotion of three-dimensional (3D) growth mode when the flow of $NH_3$ is high.

라디오파 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법을 사용하여 사파이어 기판 위에 Al 도핑된 ZnO (AZO) 박막을 성장시킨 후에 온도 범위 $600-900^{\circ}C$에서 급속 열처리를 수행하였다. 박막의 결정 구조와 표면 형상은 각각 X-선 회절법과 주사전자현미경으로 조사하였다. 급속 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 박막의 결정성은 향상되었고, 평균 50 nm의 크기를 갖는 육각형 형태의 결정 입자가 관측되었다. 증착된 모든 박막은 파장 영역 400-1100 nm에서 92%의 평균 투과율을 나타내었다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 박막의 밴드갭 에너지는 감소하였고, 광여기 발광 신호의 경우에 자외선 발광 신호의 세기가 감소하면서 400 nm에 중심을 둔 보라색 발광 신호가 주된 피크를 형성하였다. 박막의 전기적 특성은 열처리 온도에 현저한 의존성을 보였다.

분자선증착법으로 (0001) 사파이어 기판 위에 $Al_xGa_1-_xN$ 에피층을 AlN 몰비를 변화시키면서 성장시켰다. AlN 몰비는 0.16에서 0.76까지 변화시켰으며 X선의 회절 실험과 Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy 방법을 이용하여 AlN 몰비를 결정하였다. $Al_xGa_1-_xN$ 에피층의 깊이 방향의 조성 변화를 관찰하였으며 스퍼터 시간에 대해 각 원소가 일정한 원자 농도를 가짐을 알 수 있었다. AlN 몰비의 증가에 따른 표면 특성의 변화를 관찰하기 위하여 atomic force microscopy 측정을 수행하였다. 표면에서의 입자 모양이 AlN 몰비가 변화함에 따라 원형에서 침상형태로 변화함을 알 수 있었다. 표면 입자에 대한 root mean square 값과 average roughness 값을 구하였으며 AlN 몰비를 바꿈에 따라 나타나는 변화를 관찰하였다.

ZnO thin film was grown on a sapphire single crystal substrate by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. In addition to near band edge (NBE) emissions, both blue and green luminescences are also observed together. The PL intensity of the blue luminescence (BL) range from 2.7 to 2.9 eV increased as the amount of activated oxygen increased, but green luminescence (GL) was weakly observed at about 2.4 eV without much change in intensity. This result is quite unlike previous studies in which BL and GL were regarded as the transition between shallow donor levels such as oxygen vacancy and interstitial zinc. Based on the transition level and formation energy of the ZnO intrinsic defects predicted through the first principle calculation, which employs density functional approximation (DFA) revised by local density approximation (LDA) and the LDA+U approach, the green and blue luminescence are nearly coincident with the transition from the conduction band to zinc vacancies of $V^{2-}_{Zn}$ and $V^-_{Zn}$, respectively.

Effects of the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio in the sputtering process on the crystallinity, surface roughness, carrier concentration, carrier mobility, and optical properties of Al-doped ZnO thin films deposited on sapphire (001) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering were investigated. XRD spectra showed a preferred orientation along the c-axis and a minimum FWHM of the (002) XRD intensity peak for the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio of 0.5. The (101)peak also appeared and the degree of preferred orientation decreased as the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio increased from 0.5 to 1.0. AFM analysis results showed that the surface roughness was lowest at the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio of 0.5 and tended to increase owing to the increase of the grain size as the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio increased further. According to the Hall measurement results the carrier concentration and carrier mobility of the fan decreased and thus the resistivity increased as the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio increased. The transmittance of the ZnO:Al film deposited on the glass substrate was characteristic of a standing wave. The transmittance increased as the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio in-RF magnetron sputtering increased up to 0.5. Considering the effects of the $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio on the surface roughness, electrical resistivity and transmittance properties of the ZnO:Al film the optimum $O_2/Ar$ flow ratio was 0.5 in the RF magnetron sputter deposition of the ZnO:Al film.
