대표적 열전물질인 비스무스 텔루라이드에 자성원자를 도핑한 합금에 대한 구조 및 전자적 그리고 자기적 성질에 관한 연구는 고효율 열전물질의 개발이라는 목적뿐만 아니라 특이한 자기적 상호작용 규명 및 위상절연체 분야에서도 큰 관심을 끌고 있다. 본 연구에서는 희토류 원자로서 매우 국소화된 f 전자를 갖는 Gd이 Bi을 치환하여 도핑된 비스무스 텔루라이드 합금의 자성 안정성을 밀도범함수(Density Functional Theory)에 입각하여 제일원리적으로 연구하기 위하여 모든 전자(all-electron) FLAPW(full-potential linearized augmented plane-wave) 방법을 이용하여 전자구조 계산을 수행하였다. 전자간 교환-상관 상호작용은 일반기울기 근사법(Generalized Gradient Approximation)을 도입하여 계산하였으며, 국소화된 f 전자를 기술하는 데 필요한 Hubbard+U 보정과 스핀-궤도 각운동량 상호작용은 제2 변분법적 방법을 이용하여 고려하였다. 계산 결과, 강자성 안정성을 보이는 Gd 덩치계와 다르게 이 합금은 강자성과 반강자성의 총에너지 차이가 ~1 meV/Gd 정도의 아주 작은 값으로 얻어져서, 그 자성 안정성은 결함이나 strain 등에 의한 구조변화에 민감하게 의존하여 변할 수 있음을 알 수 있었다. 특히 Gd 스핀자기모멘트는 덩치에서의 값에 비해 감소하였고, Gd에 가장 가까운 Te에 유도 자기모멘트가 형성되는 것으로 미루어 Te를 매개로 한 자성상호작용이 자성 안정성을 결정하는 데에 중요한 역할을 하는 것으로 예측할 수 있었다.

수평 전기로에서 AgInS₂ 다결정을 합성하여 HWE(Hot Wall Epitaxy)방법으로 AgInS₂ 단결정 박막을 반절연성 GaAs(100)기판에 성장시켰다. AgInS₂ 단결정 박막의 성장 조건은 증발원의 온도 680℃, 기판의 온도 410℃였고 성장 속도는 0.5㎛/hr였다. AgInS₂ 단결정 박막의 결정성의 조사에서 10 K에서 광발광(photoluminescence)스펙트럼이 597.8 nm(2.0741 eV)에서 exciton emission스펙트럼이 가장 강하게 나타났으며, 또한 이중결정 X-선 요동곡선(DCRC)의 박폭치(FWHM)도 121 arcsec로 가장 작아 최적 성장 조건임을 알수 있었다. Hall 효과는 van der Pauw 방법에 의해 측정되었으며, 온도에 의존하는 운반자 농도와 이동도는 293K에서 각각 9.35×10/sup 16/㎤, 294㎠/V·s 였다. AgInS₂ /SI(SEmi-Insulated) GaAs(100) 단결정 박막의 광흡수와 광전류 spectra를 293K에서 10K까지 측정하였다. 광흡수 스펙트럼으로부터 band gap E/sub g/(T)는 Varshni 공식에 따라 계산한 결과 2.1365eV-(9.89×10/sup-3/eV/K/)T²(T+2930K)이었으며 광전류 스펙트럼으로부터 Hamiltopn matrix(Hopfield quasicubic mode)법으로 계산한 결과 crystal field splitting Δcr값이 0.1541eV이며 spin-orbit Δso 값은 0.0129eV임을 확인하였다. 10K일때 광전류 봉우리들은 n=1 일때 A₁-, B-₁와 C₁-exction 봉우림을 알았다.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $CuAlSe_{2}$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuAlSe_{2}$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $680^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $CuAlSe_{2}$ single crystal thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $9.24{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ and $295cm^{2}/V{\codt}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $CuAlSe_{2}$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_{g}(T)$ = 2.8382 eV - ($8.68{\circ}10^{-4}$ eV/K)$T^{2}$/(T + 155 K). The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $CuAlSe_{2}$ have been estimated to be 0.2026 eV and 0.2165 eV at 10 K, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}so$ definitely exists in the ${\Gamma}_{5}$ states of the valence band of the $CuAlSe_{2}$. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_{1-}$, $B_{1-}$, and $C_{1-}$ exciton peaks for n = 1.

Optical properties of $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ and $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$ crystals are investigated in the visible and near-infrared regions at 298K. The direct band gap at 298K is 1.630eV for the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ and 1.567eV for the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$ crystals, respectively. In the optical absorption and PAS spectrum of the $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$:$Co^{2+}$, we observed five impurity absorption peaks at $4220cm^{-1}$, $5952cm^{-1}$, $12422cm^{-1}$, $12987cm^{-1}$ and $14184cm^{-1}$. These impurity absorption peaks are attributed to the electronic transitions between the split energy levels of $Co^{2+}$ ions with Td symmetry of $Zn_2AgGaSe_4$ host lattice. The crystal field parameter Dq, the Racah parameter B and the spin-orbit coupling parameter $\lambda$ are given by $442cm^{-1}$, $425cm^{-1}$ and $440cm^{-1}$, respectively.

In this study, the photocurrent (PC) spectroscopy of undoped p-type CIS layers has been investigated at temperatures ranging from 10 to 293 K. Three peaks, A, B, and C, corresponded to the intrinsic transition from the valence band states off $\Gamma_7$(A), $\Gamma_6$(B), and $\Gamma_7$(C) to the conduction band state $\Gamma_6$, respectively. The crystal field splitting and the spin orbit splitting were found at 0.0059 and 0.2301 eV, respectively, and the temperature dependence of the optical band gap could be expressed by using the empirical equation $E_g$(T) = $E_g$(0) - $(8.57\times10^{-4)T^2$/(T + 129). But the behavior of the PC was different from that generally observed in other semiconductors: the PC intensities decreased with decreasing temperature. From the relation of log $J_{ph}$ vs 1/T, where $J_{ph}$ is the PC density, the dominant level was observed at the higher temperatures. We suggest that in undoped p-type CIS layers, the trapping center limits the PC signal due to native defects and impurities with decreasing temperature.

The stoichiometric mix of evaporating materials for he CuInS₂ single crystal thin films was prepared. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CuINS₂ mixed crystal was deposited on etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 640℃ and 430℃, respectively and the thickness of the single crystal thin films was 2 ㎛. The crystalline structure of single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). The carrier density and mobility deduced from Hall data are 9.64x10/sup 22//㎥ and 2.95x10/sup -2/ ㎡/V·s, respectively at 293 K. he optical energy gap was found to be 1.53 eV at room temperature. From the photocurrent spectrum obtained by illuminating perpendicular light on the c-axis of the thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling splitting ΔSo and the crystal field splitting ΔCr were 0.0211 eV and 0.0045 eV at 10K, respectively. From PL peaks measured at 10K, were can assign the 807.7 nm (1.5350 eV) peak to E/sub x/ peak of the free exciton emission, the 810.3 nm(1.5301 eV) peak to I₂ peak of donar-bound exciton emission and the 815.6 nm(1.5201 eV) peak to I₁ peak of acceptor-bound excition emission. In addition, the peak observed at 862.0 nm(1.4383 eV) was analyzed to be PL peak due to donor-acceptor pair(DAP).

Single crystal $AgGaSe_2$ layers were grown on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate at $420^{\circ}C$ with hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system by evaporating $AgGaSe_2$ source at $630^{\circ}C$. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of single crystal $AgGaSe_2$ thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $4.05{\times}\;10^{16}/cm^3$, $139\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K. respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $AgGaSe_2$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)=1.9501\;eV\;-\;(8.79{\times}10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2$/(T + 250 K). The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the $AgGaSe_2$ have been estimated to be 0.3132 eV and 0.3725 eV at 10 K, respectively, by means of the phcitocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasicubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the ${\Delta}So$ definitely exists in the $\Gamma_5$ states of the valence band of the $AgGaSe_2$. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10 K are ascribed to the $A_1$-, $B_1$-, and $C_1$-exciton peaks for n = 1.

A silver indium sulfide ($AgInS_2$) epilayer was grown by the hot wall epitaxy method, which has not been reported in the literature. The grown $AgInS_2$ epilayer has found to be a chalcopyrite structure and evaluated to be high quality crystal. From the photocurrent measurement in the temperature range from 30 K to 300 K, the two peaks of A and B were only observed, whereas the three peaks of A, B, and C were seen in the PC spectrum of 10 K. These peaks are ascribed to the band-to-band transition. The valence band splitting of $AgInS_2$ was investigated by means of the photocurrent measurement. The crystal field splitting, $\Delta_{cr}$ , and the spin orbit splitting, $\Delta_{so}$ , have been obtained to be 0.150 eV and 0.009 eV at 10 K, respectively. And, the energy band gap at room temperature has been determined to be 1.868 eV. Also, the temperature dependence of the energy band gap, $E_{g}$(T), was determined.d.
