Transparent olivine $LiNiPO_4$ thin films on sapphire substrates were fabricated by radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering. The X-ray diffraction patterns show these thin films have the phase of $LiNiPO_4$ with an ordered olivine structure indexed to the orthorhombic Pmna space group. $LiNiPO_4$ thin films deposited on sapphire substrates exhibit transmittance of about 83 %. It was confirmed that the $LiNiPO_4$ thin film exhibits a high potential of 5 V-class.

Sapphire crystals were grown by Horizontal Bridgman method. The effects of sliding rate (growth rate) of Molybdenum container, growth atmosphere, temperature gradient and orientation of see on crystal qualities were investigated. The size of the crystals grown was up to 150-200 mm in length, 90 mm in width and 25-35 mm in thickness. Crystals grown under the optimum conditions were colorless, transparent and could not be observed and macroscopic defects, such as bubbles, cracks, twins and mosaic structure. With the grown crystals, prototypes of sapphire substrate for blue wafers were characterized. As a result, we can get hight quality of sapphire wafers with c-axis, 1.5 inches in diameters and 0.33 mm in thickess.

본 연구에서는 수열법을 이용하여 저품질의 호주산 천연 사파이어에 대한 색상개선을 행하였다. 호주산 천연 사파이어의 색상 개선에 대한 최적의 수열처리 조건은 다음과 같다. 즉, 수열반응온도 $320{\sim}350^{\circ}C$, 반응시간: 3일, 수열용매: 2 M NaOH 수용액이다. 이와 같은 조건하에서 수열 처리한 후에 투명한 색상의 호주산 천연 사파이어가 얻어졌으며 천연 사파이어 가치 차트로 비교한 결과, commercial 등급이 $middle{\sim}top$ 등급으로 색상이 개선되었음을 확인하였다.

We present investigations of the surface micromachining for transparent glass substrate, e.g. soda lime glass using tightly focused 800nm Ti:sapphire femtosecond laser. In this study, experiment conditions such as laser intensity, scanning speed, focus position were controlled as variable parameters to decide optimal machining conditions. This study shows clearly that laser intensity and scanning speed are dominant factors for good surface morphology. Using the optimal conditions, grooves with 50${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ line width were fabricated on glass substrate and their surface morphologies were investigated from SEM image.

Transparent and hard materials such as sapphire are used for many industrial applications as optical windows, hard materials on mechanical contact against abrasion, and substrate materials for opto-electronic semiconductor devices such as blue LED and blue LD etc. The materials should be cut along the proper shapes possible to be used for each application. In case of blue LED, the blue LED wafer should be cut to thousands of blue LED pieces at the final stage of the manufacturing process. The process of cutting the wafer is usually divided into two steps. The wafer is scribed along the proper shapes in the first step. It is inserted between transparent flexible sheets for easy handling. And then, it is broken and split in the next step. Harder materials such as diamonds are usually used to scribe the wafer, while it has a problem of low depth of scribing and abrasion of the harder material itself. The low depth of scribing can induce failure in breaking the wafer along the scribed line. It was also known that the expensive diamond tip should be replaced frequently for the abrasion. (omitted)

SiO2 doped sapphire single crystals were grown by Verneuil method using feed material which prepared by adding SiO2 in Al2O3. Crystal growing were attempted with varing doping amount of SiO2 from 0.01 to 1.0 wt% and when the doping amount of SiO2 were 0.01~0.04 wt%, single crystals could be attained. Starting materials for feed powder were 99.99% purity alumina and extra pure SiO2 powder. Mixing these two materials by wet milling for 24 hours and drying the mixture and then was calcined at 900~110$0^{\circ}C$ for 2~4 hours. The grown crystals had yellowish color and were somewhat transparent. During growing process the flow range of oxygen was 5~7.5ι/min and of hydrogen was 13~25ι/min, the average growth rate was 7.0~11 mm/hr. The pressure of gases were fixed at 5psi. The color of crystal was appeared and mechanical property of sapphire was developed by doping of SiO2.

The fabrication of internal diffraction gratings with photoinduced refractive index modification in transparent materials was demonstrated using low-density plasma formation excited by a femtosecond (130 fs) Ti: sapphire laser (${\lambda}_p$=800 nm). The refractive index modifications with diameters ranging from $1{\mu}m$ to $3{\mu}m$ were photoinduced after plasma formation occurred upon irradiation with peak intensities of more than $2.0{\times}10^{13}W/cm^2$. The graded refractive index profile was fabricated to be a symmetric around from the center of the point at which low-density plasma occurred.

이산화바나듐($VO_2$)는 써모크로믹(thermochromic) 물질로서 온도변화에 따른 구조적 상전이에 의해 전기적, 광학적 특성을 스위칭 할 수 있는 매력적인 소재이며, 최근 신소재로써 그 연구가 활발한 그래핀 역시, 전기적으로나 광학적으로 그 특성이 우수하여 투명전극에 관한 연구가 아주 활발하게 진행되고 있다. 이에 우리는 $VO_2$와 그래핀 두 가지 소재를 접목했을 경우 나타나는 현상을 그래핀의 층 수와 온도를 변수로 하여 형성된 박막의 구조와 광학적 특성을 측정하고 분석하였다. 본 연구 결과에 따르면 그래핀 필름이 전사된 사파이어 기판 위에 형성된 $VO_2$ 박막의 표면구조 및 특성이 bare 사파이어 기판 위의 $VO_2$ 박막보다 그레인이 작고 밀도가 높아 균일하였으며, IR 영역에서의 광투과도 역시 그래핀 필름이 있을 경우 ~10% 정도 개선됨을 확인하였다. 아울러 평균상전이 온도를 낮출 수 있으며, 상전이 히스테리시스 변화폭 또한 좁아지는 것을 확인하였다.

P-type transparent conducting $CuGaO_2$ thin films have been prepared by DC/RF sputtering using Quartz(0001) and sapphire(0001) substrates. The target was fabricated by heating a stoichiometric mixture of CuO and $Ga_2O_3$ at 1373K for 12h under $N_2$ atmosphere. The film were deposited under mixture gas of Ar and $O_2(Ar:O_2=4:1)$ during 10~30min. and the as-deposited films were annealed at 1123K and $N_2$ atmosphere. Room temperature conductivity and the activation energy of the sintered body in the temperature range of 223K ~ 423K were 0 004S/cm, 1.9eV, respectively. XRD revealed that all of the as-deposited films were amorphous. Heating of the films deposited on Quartz substrates above 1123K resulted in crystallization with a second phase of $CuSiO_3$, which was assumed owing to reaction with Quartz substrate. The single phase of $CuGaO_2$ was obtained at the film deposited on the sapphire substrates. The transmittance after annealing of DC- and RF-sputtered films were 55~75% at 550nm. From the transmittance and reflectance measurement. the direct band gap of the DC/RF-sputtered films were 3.63eV and 3.57eV. and there was little difference between DC and RF sputtered films.

TiO2 doped sapphire single crystals were grown by Verneuil method. The doping amount of TiO2 to Al2O3 were varied 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 wt% respectively. The grown crystals have reddish color and somewhat transparent. Optimum growth condition was established by changing growth rate and gas flow ratio. Growth condition are as follows; The flow rate range of oxygen ws 5.0~7.3 ι/min and that of hydrogen was 16~25ι/min and average growth rate was 6~8mm/hr. The basic cause of color appearence and defects in crystal were studied.
