  • Generally InGaN/GaN green light emitting diode (LED) exhibits the low quantum efficiency (QE) due to the large lattice mismatch between InGaN and GaN. The QE of InGaN-based multiple quantum wells (MQWs) is drastically decreased when an emission wavelength shifts from blue to green wavelength, so called "green gap". The "green gap" has been explained by quantum confined Stark effect (QCSE) caused by a large lattice mismatch. In order to improve the QE of green LED, undoped graded short-period InGaN/GaN superlattice (GSL) and Si-doped GSL (SiGSL) structures below the 5-period InGaN/GaN MQWs were grown on the patterned sapphire substrates. The luminescence properties of InGaN/GaN green LEDs have been investigated by using photoluminescence (PL) and time-resolved PL (TRPL) measurements. The PL intensity of SiGSL sample measured at 10 K shows stronger about 1.3 times compared to that of undoped GSL sample, and the PL peak wavelength at 10 K appears at 532 and 525 nm for SiGSL and undoped GSL, respectively. Furthermore, the PL decay of SiGSL measured at 10 K becomes faster than that of undoped GSL. The faster decay for SiGSL is attributed to the increased wavefunction overlap between electron and hole due to the screening of piezoelectric field by doped carriers. These PL and TRPL results indicate that the QE of InGaN/GaN green LED with GSL structure can be improved by Si-doping.

  • In this work, we investigate ohmic contacts to p-type GaN using a Pt/Cu/Au metallization scheme in order to achieve low resistance and thermally stable ohmic contact on p-GaN. An ohmic contact formed by a metal electrode deposited on a highly doped InGaN/GaN superlattice sturucture on p-GaN layer. The specific contact resistance is $1.56{\times}10^{-6}{\Omega}cm^2$ for the as-deposited sample, $1.35{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm^2$ for the sample annealed at $250^{\circ}C$ and $6.88{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm^2$ for the sample annealed at $300^{\circ}C$.

  • 구리 나노입자의 표면에 화학흡착한 octanethiol, decanethiol 및 dodecanethiol의 3D SAMs를 연구하였고, dodecanethiol의 투입량 변화에 따른 구리 나노입자의 산화 안정성을 고찰하였다. 제조 공정은 산소로부터 보호하기 위해 질소 분위기에서 수행하였고, 합성된 입자는 원심분리를 통하여 획득하였다. 구리 전구체는 Copper(II) nitrate, 환원제는 sodium borohydride를 사용하였으며, 반응은 단일상에서 진행하였다. 나노 크기의 구리입자는 TEM 분석을 통하여 확인하였고, 그 크기는 약 3~6 nm였다. FT-IR, XPS와 열중량분석(TGA) 결과 alkanethiol의 thiol기가 구리 표면에 화학흡착 한다는 것과 alkyl기의 사슬이 길수록 alkanethiol의 흡착양이 증가한다는 것을 확인하였고, XRD 패턴으로부터 구리 나노입자의 거대격자회절(superlattice diffraction)을 관측할 수 있었다. 그리고 dodecanethiol의 투입양이 구리의 투입양보다 적을 경우 구리는 $Cu_2O$의 형태로 산화되었으며, 구리보다 1.25배 많이 투입할 경우 더욱 조밀한 SAMs를 형성하였다.

  • 본 연구에서는 고주파 마그네트론 스퍼터링에 의해 형성된 Co/Cu 인공초격자를 저온에서 열처리함으로써 열적 안정성을 펑가하고 수반된 계면 반응이 자기저항에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Cu 사잇층 두께, Fe 바닥층 두께, 바닥층의 종류에 따른 열처리 거동의 차이를 조사하였으며, X선 회절분석과 저항분석을 통해 계면반응과 자기저항의 상관관계를 검토하였다. Co/Cu 인공초격자를 저 온($450^{\circ}C$ 이하) 에서 급속열처리하는 경우 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 Cu 사잇층 두께가 얇 을 때 ($7\AA$)에는 기존의 보고와 마찬가지로 자기저항이 일방적으로 감소하였으나 Cu 사잇층 두께가 두꺼울 때($20~25\AA$)에는 이와는 달리 자기저항이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 소각 X선 회절 분석 결과에 의하면, 이는 계면 명확성이 증대되기 때문인 것으로 밝혀졌다. Fe 바닥층 두 께가 두꺼울수록 열적 안정성이 우수하였다. (200)우선방위가 발달한 Cu 바닥층의 경우 Fe 바닥층보다 낮은 온도에서 계면반응(Co와 Cu의 분리) 이 일어났는데, 이는 결정방향에 따른 확산속도의 차이로 설명될 수 있었다.

  • We present a new description of envelope-function equation of the superlattice (SL). The SL wave function and corresponding effective-mass equation are formulated in terms of a linear combination of Bloch states of the constituent material with smaller band gap. In this envelope-function formalism, we review the fundamental concept on the motion of a wave packet in the SL structure subjected to steady and uniform electric fields F. The review confirms that the average of SL crystal momentums K = ($k_x,k_y,q$), where ($K_x,k_y$) are bulk inplane wave vectors and q SL wave vector, included in a wave packet satisfies the equation of motion = $_0+Ft/h$; and that the velocity and acceleration theorems provide the same type of group velocity and definition of the effective mass tensor, respectively, as in the Bulk. Finally, Schlosser and Marcus's method for the band theory of metals has been by Altarelli to include the interface-matching condition in the variational calculation for the SL structure in the multi-band envelope-function approximation. We re-examine this procedure more thoroughly and present variational equations in both general and reduced forms for SLs, which agrees in form with the proposed envelope-function formalism. As an illustration of the application of the present work and also for a brief investigation of effects of band-parameter difference on the subband energy structure, we calculate by the proposed variational method energies of non-strained $GaAs/Al_{0.32}Ga_{0.68}As$ and strained $In_{0.63}Ga_{0.37}As/In_{0.73}Ga_{0.27}As_{0.58}P_{0.42}SLs$ with well/barrier widths of $60{\AA}/500{\AA}$ and 30${\AA}/30{\AA}$, respectively.

  • $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N/CrN$ nano-multilayers, which are known to have excellent wear resistance, were prepared using an unbalanced magnetron sputter to have various periods of 2-5 nm. $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N$ had a hexagonal structure in a single layer, but converted to a cubic structure by forming a multilayer with CrN, which has a cubic structure. Thus, $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N$ formed a superlattice in the multilayer. The $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}/CrN$ multilayer with a period of 2.5 nm greatly exceeded the hardness of the $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N$ and the CrN single layer, reaching 39 GPa. According to the low angle X-ray diffraction results, the $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N/CrN$ multilayer maintained its as-coated structure to a temperature as high as $700^{\circ}C$ and exhibited hardness of 30 GPa. The thickness of the oxide layer of the $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N/CrN$ multilayered coating was less than one-tenth of those of the single layers. Thus, $Ti_{0.33}Al_{0.67}N/CrN$ multilayered coating had hardness and oxidation resistance far superior to those of its constituent single layers.

  • We fabricate organic-inorganic hybrid thin film for the purpose of encapsulation by molecular layer deposition (MLD) using Trimethylaluminium (TMA) and Adipoyl Chloride (AC). Ellipsometry was employed to verify self limiting reaction of ALD. Linear relationship between number of cycle and thickness was obtained. We found that desirable organic thin film fabrication is possible by MLD surface reaction in nanoscale. Purging was carried out after dosing of each precursor to form monolayer in each sequence. We also confirmed roughness of the organic thin film by atomic force microscopy. We deposit TMA and AC at $70^{\circ}C$ and that 1.78A root mean square was obtained which indicates that uniform organic thin film was formed. We confirmed precursor's functional group by IR spectrum. We calculated WVTR of organic-inorganic hybrid super-lattice epitaxial layer using Ca test. WVTR indicates superlattice film can be possibly use as encapsulation in flexible devices.

  • MBS에 의해(001)GaAs기판 위에 성장된 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se(x=1.0, 7.4, 9.5 %)반도체 박막과 (ZnSe/FeSe)반도체 초격자 박막의 미세구조를 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 연구하였다. Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막 시편의 경우, 박막과 기판 사이의 격자 불일치때문에 a/2<110>형태의 버거즈 벡터를 가지는 부정합 전위를 관찰하였다. 모든 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막과 기판의 계면은 뚜렷이 구별되었고, 계면에서 산화물이나 이물질이 존재하지 않았다. 또한, (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 성장시키기 전에 GaAs기판 위에 ZnSe바닥층을 넣음으로써 고품질의 (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 얻었다. (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자에 있는 FeSe는 섬아연광 결정구조로 존재하였다.

  • PTO/PZO 초격자 박막은 박막 계면에 응력이 발생하여 기존의 박막처럼 size effect가 적용되지 않고 두께가 감소해도 높은 유전상수를 갖는다. Antiferroelectric PbZrO$_3$(PZO)와 ferroelectric PbTiO$_3$(PTO)를 적층 성장시킨 초격자는 400도에서 성장한 (100) Pt/SiO$_2$기판 위에 rf magnetron sputtering으로 증착하였다. PTO/PZO의 증착 주기는 30(PTO $_{4unti cells}$/PZO $_{4unti cells}$) 에서 1(PTO $_{125unti cells}$/PZO $_{125unti cells}$)까지 두께의 변화를 주어 준비했고 초격자 박막의 전체두께는 100nm로 고정시켰다. XRD결과, PTO/PZO는 주기에 따라 초격자의 특성인 main peak과 satellite peak을 관찰 할 수 있었다. 초격자의 주기가 감소함에 따라 2$\theta$값이 증가하고 평균 d 값이 감소되면서 PTO층에 뒤틀림이 증가하였다. PTO층의 뒤틀림 증가로 인해 superlattice의 주기가 증가함에 따라 초격자의 유전율이 증가하였고 강유전성이 향상되었다.향상되었다.

  • The optical properties of $ZnS_ySe_{1-\chi-y}:Te_{\chi}(\chi<0.08,y~0.11)$ alloys grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) have been investigated by photoluminescence (PL) and PL-excitation (PLE) spectroscopy. Good optical properties and high crystal quality were established with lattice match condition to GaAs substrate. At room temperature, emission in the visible spectrum region from blue to green was obtained by varying the Te content of the ZnSSe:Te alloy. The efficient blue and green emission were assigned to $Te_1 and Te_n(n\geq2)$cluster bound excitons, respectively. Bright green (535 nm) and blue (462 nm) light emitting diodes (LEDs) have been developed using ZnSSe:Te system as an active layer. The turn-on voltage of 2.1 V in current-voltage characteristics is very small compared to that of commercial InGaN-based LEDs (>3.4 V), indicating the formation of a good ohmic contact due to the optimized p-ZnSe/p-ZnTe multi-quantum well (MQW) superlattice electrode layers.
