정보 기술 시대에 맞춰 광전소자의 연구가 활발해지면서 투명전극으로 사용될 수 있는 Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) 재료에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 하지만 TCO의 대표적인 물질인 Indium Tin Oxide (ITO)의 경우 In의 가격 상승으로 인해 최근에는 낮은 전도도와 높은 투과도를 가질 수 있는 대체 물질에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서 3.2 eV 의 높은 밴드갭을 갖는 ZnO 는 가시광선 영역에서 높은 투과율을 나타낼 뿐만 아니라 Al, Ga을 도핑함으로써 낮은 전도도를 가질 수 있다. 이러한 TCO 재료는 surface texturing을 통하여 optical region 에서 반사를 억제 시킴으로서 빛을 모으는 역할을 하여 태양전지의 효율을 향상 시킬 수 있기 때문에 PV (Photovoltaics) Cell의 anti-reflective coating에 적용 할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 pulsed DC magnetron sputtering을 이용하여 Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) 박막을 증착하였고, HCl 0.5 wt %로 wet etching을 통하여 surface texturing을 진행하였다. 결정성은 X-ray diffractometer (XRD)로 분석하였으며, 표면 형상은 Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM)을 통해 확인하였다. Van der Pauw 방법을 통해 resistivity, carrier concentration, hall mobility 등의 전기적 특성을 분석하였고 UV-Vis spectrophotometer 를 통해 투과도 및 반사도를 측정하였다.

Plasma spray processes for functional coatings of tubular SOFC ( Soild oxide Fuel Cell).consisting of air electrode, oxide electrolyte, an fuel electrode, are optimized by fully saturated fractional factorial testing. Material and electric characteristics of each coating are analtsed by the implementation of SEM and optical microscope for evaluating microstructure and porosity, X-ray diffraction method for investigating compositional change between raw powder and sprayed coating, and Van der Pauw method for measuring electrical conductivity. LSM ($La_{0.65}Sr_{0.35}MnO_3$air electrode and Ni-YSL fuel electrode coatings have porosities of around 23~30% sufficient for effective fuel and oxidant gas supply to electrochemical reaction interfaces and electrical conductivities of around 90 S/cm and 1000 S/cm, respectively, enough for acting as current collecting electrodes. YSZ($ZrO_2-8mol%Y_2O_3$) electrolyte film has a high ionic conductivities of 0.05~0.07 S/cm at $1000^{\circ}C$ in air atmosphere, but appears to be somewhat too porous to reduce the thickness. for enhancing the cell efficiency. A unit tubular SOFC has beem fabricated by the optimized plasma spray processes for each functional coating and the cell. Its electrochemical chracteristics are investigated by measuring voltage-current and power density with variation of operationg temperature, radio of fuel to air gas flowrates, and total gas flowrate of reactants.

A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $ZnIn_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $ZnIn_2Se_4$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $630^{\circ}C$ and $400^{\circ}C$, 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 $ZnIn_2Se_4$ single crystal thin films measured from Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $9.41{\times}10^{16}cm^{-3}$ and $292cm^2/v{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the $ZnIn_2Se_4$ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $Eg(T)=1.8622eV-(5.23{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2/(T+775.5K)$.

Al-doped p-type ZnO thin films were fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in pure oxygen ambient. ZnO ceramic mixed with 2 wt% $Al_2O_3$ was selected as a sputtering target. XRD spectra show that the Al-doped ZnO thin films have ZnO crystal structure. Hall Effect experiments with Van der Pauw configuration show that p-type carrier concentrations are arranged from $1.66{\times}10^{16}$ to $4.04{\times}10^{18}\;cm^{-2}$, mobilities from 0.194 to $198\;cm^2V{-1}s^{-1}$ and resistivities from 0.0963 to $18.4\;{\Omega}cm$. FESEM cross section images of different parts of a p-type ZnO:Al thin film annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ show a compact structure. Measurement for same sample shows that density is $5.40\;cm^{-3}$ which is smaller than theoretically calculated value of $5.67\;cm^{-3}$. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra at 10 K show a shoulder peak of p-type ZnO film at about 3.117 eV which is ascribed to electron transition from donor level to acceptor level (DAP).

수평 전기로에서 AgInS2 다결정을 합성하여 HWE 방법으로 AgInS2 단결정 박막을 반절연성 GaAs(100) 위에 성장하였다. AgInS2 단결정 박막은 증발원과 기판의 온도를 각각 680℃, 410℃로 성장하였다. 이때 단결정 박막의 결정성이 10 K에서 측정한 광발광 스펙트럼은 597.8 nm(2.0741 eV) 근처에서 엑시톤 방출 스펙트럼이 가장 강하게 나타났으며, 또한 이중결정 X-선 요동곡선(DCRC)의 반폭치(FWHM)도 121 arcsec로 가장 작게 측정되어 최적 성장 조건임을 알 수 있었다. Hall 효과는 van der Pauw 방법에 의해 측정되었으며, 온도에 의존하는 운반자 농도와 이동도는 293 K에서 각각 9.35×1023개/㎥, 2.94×10-2㎡/V·s였다. AgInS2 단결정 박막의 광전류 단파장대 봉우리들로부터 10 K에서 측정된 ΔCr(crystal field splitting)은 0.15eV, ΔSo(spin orbit coupling)는 0.0089 eV였다. 광전도 셀로서 응용성을 알아보기 위해 감도(γ), pc/dc(photocurrent/darkcurrent), 최대허용소비전력(maximum allowable power dissipation: MAPD), 응답시간(response time)등을 측정한 결과, S 증기 분위기에 열처리한 광전도 셀의 경우 γ=0.98, pc/dc=1.02×106, MAPD=312 mW, 오름시간(rise time)=10.4 ms, 내림시간(decay time)=10.8 ms로 가장 좋은 특성을 얻었다.

Degradation of $Zn_3N_2$ films is studied by using several analytical techniques. Polycrystalline $Zn_3N_2$ films prepared by reactie rf magnetron sputtering are kept in the air. Electrical and optical properties are measured by using van der Pauw technique and double-beam spectrometry. Structure and chemical bonding states are studied by X-ray diffraction(XRD), Fourier transfer infrared ray spectroscopy(FT-IR) and X-ray photoelectron specroscopy (XPS). Significant differences are observed in optical properties between the degraded film and the ZnO film. XRD analysis reveals that the degraded film contains very small ZnO grains because very weak and broad ZnO peaks are observed. XPS and FT-IR measurements reveal the formation of $Zn(OH)_2$ in the degraded film. The existence of N-H bonds in degraded films is exhibited from the N 1s spectra. $Zn_3N_2$ change into the mixture of ZnO, $Zn(OH)_2$ and an ammonium salt.

Al-N co-doped ZnO films were fabricated on n-Si (100) and homo-buffer layers in the mixture of oxygen and nitrogen at $450^{\circ}C$ by magnetron sputtering. Target was ZnO ceramic mixed with $2wt%Al_2O_3$. XRD spectra show that as-grown and $600^{\circ}C$ annealed films are prolonged along crystal c-axis. However they are not prolonged in (001) plane vertical to c-axix. The films annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ are not prolonged in any directions. Codoping makes ZnO films unidirectional variation. XPS show that Al content hardly varies and N escapes with increasing annealing temperature from $600^{\circ}C\;to\;800^{\circ}C$. The electric properties of as-grown films were tested by Hall Effect with Van der Pauw configuration show some of them to be p-type conduction.

Single crystal $CuAlSe_2$ layers were grown on thoroughly etched sem-insulating GaAs(l00) substrate at $410^{\circ}C$ with hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system by evaporating $CuAlSe_2$ source at $680^{\circ}C$. 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 $CuAlSe_2$ thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $9.24{\times}l0^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ and $295\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293K, 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, $E_g(T)\;=\;2.8382\;eV\;-\;(8.68\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2/(T\;+\;155\;K)$.

The CdSe thin films wee grown on the Si(100) wafers by a hot wall epitaxy method(HWE). The source and substrate temperature are $600^{\circ}C\;and\;430^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystalline structure of epilayers was investigated by double crystal X-ray diffraction(DCXD). Hall effect on the sample was measured by van der Pauw method and studied on the carrier density and mobility dependence on temperature. From Hall data, the mobility was increased in the timperature range 30K to 150K by impurity scatering and decreased in the temperature range 150K to 293K by the lattice scattering. 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 results indicated that the photoconductive characteristic were the best for the samples annealed in Cu vapor compare with in Cd, Se, air and vacuum vapour. Then we obtained the sensitivity of 0.99, the value of pc/dc of $1.39{\times}10^7$, the MAPD of 335mV, and the rise and decay time of 10ms and 9.5ms, respectively
