In this study, high quality (Al,N)-codoped p-type ZnO thin films were obtained by DC magnetron sputtering. The film on buffer layer grown in 80% $N_2$ ambient shows highest hole concentration of $2.93\times10^{17}cm^{-3}$. The films show hole concentration in the range of $1.5\times10^{15}$ to $2.93\times10^{17}cm^{-3}$, resistivity of 131.2 to 2.864 $\Omega$cm, mobility of 3.99 to 31.6 $cm^2V^{-1}s^{-1}$. The films on Si show easier p-doping in ZnO than those on buffer layer. The film on Si shows the highest quality of optical photoluminescence (PL) characteristics. The donor energy level $(E_d)$ of (Al,N)-codoped ZnO films is about 50 meV and acceptor energy level $(E_a)$ is in the range of 63 to 71 meV. It will help to improve p-type ZnO films.

Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) single layer and $SiO_2/GZO$ bi-layered films were deposited on Polycarbonate(PC) substrate by radio frequency magnetron sputtering. Influence of the structural, electrical, and optical properties of the films was considered. We have considered the influence of electron irradiation energy of 450 and 900 eV on the stuctural, electrical and optical properties of $SiO_2/GZO$ thin films. The optical transmittance in a visible wave length region increased with the electron irradiation energy. The electrical resistivity of the films were dependent on the electron's irradiation energy. The $SiO_2/GZO$ films irradiated at 900 eV were showen the lowest resistivity of $7.8{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$. The film which was irradiated by electron at 900 eV shows 84.3% optical transmittance and also shows lower than contact angle of $58^{\circ}$ in this study.

The fabrication and characterization of a Si/ZnO thin film heterojunction ultraviolet photodiode has been presented in this paper. ZnO thin film of ~100 nm thick was deposited on <100> Silicon (Si) wafer by atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. The Photoluminescence spectroscopy confirms that as-deposited ZnO thin film has excellent visible-blind UV response with almost no defects in the visible region. The room temperature current-voltage characteristics of the n-ZnO thin film/p-Si photodiodes are measured under an UV illumination of $650{\mu}W$ at 365 nm in the applied voltage range of ${\pm}2V$. The current-voltage characteristics demonstrate an excellent UV photoresponse of the device in its reverse bias operation with a contrast ratio of ~ 1115 and responsivity of ~0.075 A/W at 2 V reverse bias voltage.

Er-doped sodiumborosilicate glass films for waveguides amplifier were fabricated by Aerosol Flame Deposition(AFD) method. Al2O3 was added to sodium borosilicate glass films to suppress the formation of crystalline phase and control the refractive index. the formation of crystalline phase was suppressed above Al2O3 of 6 wt%. As the amount of Al2O3 increased from 2 to 12 wt% the refractive index of glass films increased lineary from 1.4595 up to 1.4710. After the core of 77SiO2-15B2O3-8Na2O＋6 wt%Al2O3＋8wt%Er2O3 was coated on the buffer layer of 77SiO2-15B2O3-8Na2O＋6 wt%Al2O3, the core was etched by reactive ion etching. The absorption spectrum of 3 cm waveguide amplifier showed two peaks of 1530 and 1550 nm.

H:LiNbO$_{3}$ optical modulator buffered by parylene layer, which has a merits in the bandwidth, power consumption and fabrication as compared with conventional SiO$_{2}$ buffered optical modulator, is proposed and analyzed. The dependences of velocity matching condition, charcteristics impedance, and driving voltage on dielectric constants, thickness of buffer layer, and electrode configurations are demonstrated with finite element calculation. And we performed the physical and chemical test of parylene buffer layer deposited on LiNbO$_{3}$ and under Au electrodes.

In this study, we inserted a Zn buffer layer into a AZO/p-type a-si:H layer interface in order to lower the contact resistance of the interface. For the Zn layer, the deposition was conducted at 5 nm, 7 nm and 10 nm using the rf-magnetron sputtering method. The results were compared to that of the AZO film to discuss the possibility of the Zn layer being used as a transparent conductive oxide thin film for application in the silicon heterojunction solar cell. We used the rf-magnetron sputtering method to fabricate Al 2 wt.% of Al-doped ZnO (AZO) film as a transparent conductive oxide (TCO). We analyzed the electro-optical properties of the ZnO as well as the interface properties of the AZO/p-type a-Si:H layer. After inserting a buffer layer into the AZO/p-type a-Si:H layers to enhance the interface properties, we measured the contact resistance of the layers using a CTLM (circular transmission line model) pattern, the depth profile of the layers using AES (auger electron spectroscopy), and the changes in the properties of the AZO thin film through heat treatment. We investigated the effects of the interface properties of the AZO/p-type a-Si:H layer on the characteristics of silicon heterojunction solar cells and the way to improve the interface properties. When depositing AZO thin film on a-Si layer, oxygen atoms are diffused from the AZO thin film towards the a-Si layer. Thus, the characteristics of the solar cells deteriorate due to the created oxide film. While a diffusion of Zn occurs toward the a-Si in the case of AZO used as TCO, the diffusion of In occurs toward a-Si in the case of ITO used as TCO.

본 연구에서는 플라스틱 기판 중에서 가장 내열성이 우수하다고 알려진 PES 기판위에 버퍼층으로 20nm두께로 $SiO_2$ 박막을 플라즈마 화학기상증착 법으로 증착한 후, ITZO 박막을 고주파 마그네트론 스퍼터링 법으로 증착하여 공정압력에 따른 ITZO 박막의 전기적 및 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 공정압력 3 mTorr 에서 증착한 ITZO 박막이 $8.02{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}-cm$의 비저항과 $50.13{\Omega}/sq.$의 면저항으로 가장 우수한 전기적 특성을 보였다. 모든 ITZO 박막의 가시광 영역(400-800 nm)에서 평균 투과도는 공정압력에 무관하게 80 %이상으로 나타났다. 재료평가지수는 3 mTorr에서 증착한 ITZO 박막에서 $23.90{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}^{-1}$로 가장 큰 값을 나타내었다. 본 연구를 통해 ITZO 박막이 차세대 플렉시블 디스플레이 소자에서 ITO 박막을 대체할 매우 유망한 재료라는 것을 알 수 있었다.

We have successfully demonstrated metal-ferroel-ectric-insulator-semiconductor (MFIS) devices using Al/LiNbO$_{3}$/SiN/Si structure. The SiN thin films were made into metal -insulator- semiconductor (MIS) devices by thermal evaporation of aluminum source in a dot away on the surface. The interface property of MFIS from 1MHz & quasistatic C-V is good and the memory window width is about 1.5V at 0.2V/s signal voltage sweep rate. The gate leakage current density of MFIS capacitors using a aluminum electrode showed the least value of 1x10$^{-8}$ A/$\textrm{cm}^2$ order at the electric field of 300㎸/cm. And the XRD patterns shows the probability of applications of LN for MFIS devices for FeRAMs on amorphous SiN buffer layer.

Major problems preventing the device-quality GaAs/Si heterostructure are the lattice mismatch of about 4% and difference in thermal expansion coefficient by a factor of 2.64 between Si and GaAs. Ge is a good candidate for the buffer layer because its lattice parameter and thermal expansion coefficient are almost the same as those of GaAs. As a first step toward developing heterostructure such as GaAs/Ge/Si entirely by a home-built PAE (plasma-assisted epitaxy), Ge films have been deposited on p-type Si (100)substrate by the plasma assisted evaporation of solid Ge source. The characteristics of these Ge/Si heterostructure were determined by X-ray diffraction, SEM and Auge electron spectroscope. PAE system has been successfully applied to quality-good Ge layer on Si substrate at relatively low temperature. Furthermore, this system can remove the native oxide(SiO2) on Si substrate with in-situ cleaning procedure. Ge layer grown on Si substrate by PAE at substrate temperature of 450\ulcorner in hydrogen partial pressure of 10mTorr was expected with a good buffer layer for GaAs/Ge/Si heterostructure.
