A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by hot wall epitaxy(HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were 630 $\^{C}$ and 420 $\^{C}$, respectively. 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 of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are 9.01$\times$10$\^$16/ cm$\^$-3/ and 219 ㎠/V$.$s at 293 K, respectively. From the optical absorption measurement, the temperature dependence of energy band gap on CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was found to be Eg(T) ＝ 2.7116 eV - (7.74 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/ eV) T$\^$2//(T＋434). After the as-grown CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films was annealed in Cd-, S-, and In-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) at 10 K. The native defects of V$\_$cd/, V$\_$s/, Cd$\_$int/ and S$\_$int/ obtained by PL measurements were classified as donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the S-atmosphere converted CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films to an optical p-type. Also, we confirmed that In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/GaAs did not from the native defects because In in CdIn$\_$2/S$\_$4/ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

The stochiometric mix of evaporating materials for the $CdGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CdGa_2Se_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $630^{\circ}C$ and $420^{\circ}C$, respectively. 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 of $CdGa_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.27{\times}10^{17}\;cm^{-3},\;345\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K. respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $CdGa_2Se_4$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $Eg(T)\;=\;2.6400\;eV\;-\;(7.721{\times}10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2/(T+399\;K)$. After the as-grown single crystal $CdGa_2Se_4$ thin films were annealed in Cd-, Se-, and Ga -atmospheres, the origin of point defects of single crystal $CdGa_2Se_4$ thin films has been investigated by PL at 10 K. The native defects of $V_{Cd}$, $V_{Se}$, $Cd_{int}$, and $Se_{int}$ obtained by PL measurements were classified as donors or accepters.

[ $AgGaS_2$ ] 단결정 박막을 수평 전기로에서 합성한 $AgGaS_2$ 다결정을 증발원으로하여, hot wall epitaxy(HWE) 방법으로 증발원과 기판 (반절연성 -GaAs (100))의 온도를 각각 $590^{\circ}C,\;440^{\circ}C$로 고정하여 성장하였다. 이때 단결정 박막의 결정성은 광발광 스펙트럼과 이중결정 X-선 요동곡선 (DCRC)으로 부터 구하였다. $AgGaS_2$의 광흡수 스펙트럼으로부터 구한 온도에 의존하는 에너지 밴드갭 $E_g(T)$는 Varshni. 공식에 fitting한 결과 $E_g(T)=2.7284 eV-(8.695{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/T(T+332K)$를 잘 만족하였다. 성장된 $AgGaS_2$, 단결정 박막을 Ag, Ga, S분위기에서 각각 열처리하여 10K에서 photoluminescience(PL) spectrum을 측정하여 점 결함의 기원을 알아보았다. PL 측정으로부터 얻어진 $V_{Ag},\;V_s,\;Ag_{int}$, 그리고 $S_{int}$는 주개와 받개로 분류되어졌다. $AgGaS_2$ 단결정 박막을 Ag분위기에서 열처리하면 n형으로 변환됨을 알 수 있었다. 또한, Ca 분위기에서 열처리하면 열처리 이전의 PL스펙트럼을 보이고 있어서, $AgGaS_2$ 단결정 박막에서 Ga은 안정된 결합의 형태로 있기 때문에 자연 결함의 형성에는 관련이 없음을 알았다.

It is known that semiconductor quantum-dot (QD) heterostructures have superior zero-dimensional quantum confinement, and they have been successfully applied to semiconductor laser diodes (QDLDs) for optical communication and infrared photodetectors (QDIPs) for thermal images [1]. The self-assembled QDs are normally formed at Stranski-Krastanov (S-K) growth mode utilizing the accumulated strain due to lattice-mismatch existing at heterointerfaces between QDs and cap layers. In order to increase the areal density and the number of stacks of QDs, recently, sub-monolayer (SML)-thick QDs (SQDs) with reduced strain were tried by equivalent thicknesses thinner than a wetting layer (WL) existing in conventional QDs (CQDs) by S-K mode. Despite that it is very different from CQDs with a well-defined WL, the SQD structure has been successfully applied to QDIP[2]. In this study, optical characteristics are investigated by using photoluminescence (PL) spectra taken from self-assembled InAs/GaAs QDs whose coverage are changing from submonolayer to a few monolayers. The QD structures were grown by using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on semi-insulating GaAs (100) substrates, and formed at a substrate temperature of 480$^{\circ}C$ followed by covering GaAs cap layer at 590$^{\circ}C$. We prepared six 10-period-stacked QD samples with different InAs coverages and thicknesses of GaAs spacer layers. In the QD coverage below WL thickness (~1.7 ML), the majority of SQDs with no WL coexisted with a small amount of CQDs with a WL, and multi-peak spectra changed to a single peak profile. A transition from SQDs to CQDs was found before and after a WL formation, and the sublevel of SQDs peaking at (1.32${\pm}$0.1) eV was much closer to the GaAs bandedge than that of CQDs (~1.2 eV). These revealed that QDs with no WL could be formed by near-ML coverage in InAs/GaAs system, and single-mode SQDs could be achieved by 1.5 ML just below WL that a strain field was entirely uniform.
