$AgInS_2$ single crystal thin filmsl was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $680^{\circ}C$ and $410^{\circ}C$ respectively, and the thickness of the single crystal thin films is $6{\mu}m$. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c-axis of the $AgInS_2$ single crystal thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling ${\Delta}So$ and the crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ were 0.0098 eV and 0.15 eV at 10 K, respectively. In order to explore the applicability as a photoconductive cell, we measured the sensitivity ($\gamma$), the ratio of photocurrent to darkcurrent (pc/dc), maximum allowable power dissipation (MAPD), spectral response and response time. The result indicated that the samples annealed in S vapour the photoconductive characteristics are best. Therefore we obtained the sensitivity of 0.98, the value of pc/dc of $1.02{\times}10^6$, the MAPD of 312 mW, and the rise and decay time of 10.4ms and 10.8ms respectively.

The $p-CdIn_2Te_4$ single crystal was grown in the three-stage vertical electric furnace by using Bridgman method. The quality of the grown crystal has been investigated by the x-ray diffraction and the photoluminescence measurements. From the Photoluminescence spectra of the as-grown $CdIn_2Te_4$ crystal and the various heat-treated crystals, the $(D^{o},X)$ emission was found to be the dominant intensity in the photoluminescence spectrum of the $CdIn_2Te_4:Cd$, while the $(A^{o},X)$ emission completely disappeared in the $CdIn_2Te_4:Cd$. However, the $(A^{o},X)$ emission in the photoluminescence spectrum of the $CdIn_2Te_4:Te$ was the dominant intensity like an as-grown $p-CdIn_2Te_4$ crystal. These results indicated that the $(D^{o},X)$ is associated with $V_{Te}$ acted as donor and that the $(A^{o},X)$ emission is related to $V_{Cd}$ acted as acceptor, respectively. The $p-CdIn_2Te_4$ crystal was found to be obviously converted into the n-type after annealing in the Cd atmosphere. The origin of $(D^{o},\;A^{o})$ emission and its TO Phonon replicas is related to the interaction between donors such as $V_{Te}$ or $Cd_{int}$, and accepters such as $V_{Cd}$ or $Te_{int}$. Also, the In in the $CdIn_2Te_4$ was confirmed not to form the native defects because it existed in the stable form of bonds.

Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the $CuInS_2$ polycrystal, it was found tetragonal structure whose lattice constant $a_0$ and $c_0$ were $5.524\;{\AA}$ and $11.142\;{\AA}$, respectively. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuInS_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on throughly etched semi-insulator GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were 640 t and 430 t, respectively and the thickness of the single crystal thin films was $2{\mu}m$. Hall effect on this sample was measured by the method of van dot Pauw and studied on carrier density and temperature dependence of mobility. The carrier density and mobility deduced from Hall data are $9.64{\times}10^{22}/m^3,\;2.95{\times}10^{-2}\;m^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively The optical energy gaps were found to be 1.53 eV at room temperature. From the photocurrent spectrum by illumination of perpendicular light on the c - axis of the thin film, we have found that the values of spin orbit coupling splitting ${\Delta}So$ and the crystal field splitting ${\Delta}Cr$ were 0.0211 eV and 0.0045 eV at 10 K, respectively. From PL peaks measured at 10K, 807.7nm (1.5350ev) mean Ex peak of the free exciton emission, also 810.3nm (1.5301eV) expresses $I_2$ peak of donor-bound exciton emission and 815.6nm (1.5201eV) emerges $I_1$ peak of acceptor-bound exciton emission. In addition, the peak observed at 862.0nm (1.4383eV) was analyzed to be PL peak due to donor-acceptor pair(DAP).
