The growth and microwave plasma assisted nitrogen doping of ZnSe by low pressure organometallic vapor phase epitaxy(OMVPE) has been investigated in a vertical downflow reactor equipped with a laser interferometer for in-situ growth rate measurements. Particular emphasis is placed on understanding growth characteristics of $H_{2}Se$ and the new adduct source dimethylzinc:triethyllamine($DMZn:NEt_{3}$) as compared with those obtained with $H_{2}Se$ and DMZn. At lower temperatures ($<300^{\circ}C$) and pressures(<30Torr), growth rates are higher with the adduct source and the surface morphology is improved relative to films synthesized with DMZn. Hall measurements and photoluminescence spectra of the grown films demonstrate that DMZn and $DMZn:NEt_{3}$ produce material with comparable electronic and optical properties. Microwave plasma decomposition of ammonia is investigated as a possible approach to increasing nitrogen incorporation in ZnSe and photoluminescence spectra are compared to those realized with conventional ammonia doping.

Deposition of parylene (PA) films has been explored at substrate temperatures below 2$0^{\circ}C$ and pressures below 4 torr. The film thickness was measured using AFM and the film thickness measured was 3,500-12,000$\AA$ and the growth rate was 20-70$\AA$/min. T도 dielectric constant of the deposited PA films was found to be 2.66 and the dielectric strength was in excess of 2$\times$105V/cm. The growth rate became a maximum at a precursor decomposition temperature of $600^{\circ}C$. It was found that the growth rate decreased with increasing substrate temperature, whereas it increased with increasing pressure. At a precursor decomposition temperature of 75$0^{\circ}C$ or at a deposition pressure above 1 Torr the film surface became rough due to particle formation in the gas phase. The condensation of a p-xylylene monomer on the substrate surface turned out to be a rate-limiting step in the growth of the PA films.

The GaN thick films were deposited on sapphire substrates by the chloride vapor phase epitaxy (CVPE) technique suing the GaCl3-NH3-N2 chemistry. Thermodynamic simulations were carried out to predict the optimum process windows, and the results were compared with the experiments. A large difference in the growth temperature was observed between the calculation an the experiment, and it indicated that the growth of GaN by the CVPE technique is kinetically limited.

Molecular layer deposition (MLD) is sequential, self-limiting surface reaction to form conformal and ultrathin polymer film. This technique generally uses bifunctional precursors for stepwise sequential surface reaction and entirely organic polymer films. Also, in comparison with solution-based technique, because MLD is vapor-phase deposition based on ALD, it allows epitaxial growth of molecular layer on substrate and is especially good for surface reaction or coating of nanostructure such as nanopore, nanochannel, nanwire array and so on. In this study, polyurea film that consisted of phenylenediisocyanate and phenylenediamine was formed by MLD technique. In situ Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) measurement on high surface area SiO2 substrate was used to monitor the growth of polyurethane and polyurea film. Also, to investigate orientation of chemical bonding formed polymer film, plan-polarized grazing angle FTIR spectroscopy was used and it showed epitaxial growth and uniform orientation of chemical bones of polyurea films.

In this paper, InP-based InGaAs/InAlAs quantum cascade lasers(QCLs) providing nearly zero emission wavelength mismatch between the measured emission wavelength and the designed transition wavelength of QCLs is presented. The zero emission wavelength mismatch of QCLs influenced by both the accurate compositions and thicknesses of the low-pressure metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy(MOVPE) grown InGaAs and InAlAs layers throughout the core and the abrupt composition transitions between InGaAs and InAlAs layers. The abrupt interfaces between InGaAs and InAlAs layers have been achieved throughout the core structure by means of controlling individually purged vent/run valves of a closed coupled showerhead reactor. In addition, maintaining substrate temperature constant during InGaAs/InAlAs core growth was a partial factor of uniformity improvement of QCLs. These approaches for reducing the possible discrepancies between the designed and MOVPE grown epitaxial structures could lead to improvement of QCL performance.

For the preparation of single-crystalline GaN film, heteroepitaxial growth on a sapphire substrate was carried out by halide vapor phase epitaxy(HVPE) method. The resulting GaN films showed n-type conductivity. The insulator type GaN film was made by doping with Zn(acceptor dopant), which showed emission peaks around 2.64 and 2.43 eV. The result of this study indicates that GaN can be obtained in an epitaxial structure of MIS(metal-insulator-semiconductor) junction. The observed data are regarded as fundamental in developing GaN epitaxial films for light emitting devices of hetero-structure type.

The effect of temperature gradient between the substrate and ambient gas on the structural characteristics of GaN nanorods grown on r-plane sapphire substrates by hydride vapor phase epitaxy was investigated. The density, diameter, and length strongly depended on the tempearture gradient. In addition, the cross-sectional shape of the nanorrods at the end of growth was found to be more dependedent on the temperature of a substrate itself than the temperature gradient.

Single crystalline Au nanowires were successfully synthesized in a tube-type furnace. The Au nanowires were grown by vapor phase synthesis technique using solid-liquid-solid (SLS) mechanism on substrates of corning glass and Si wafer. Prior to Au nanowire synthesis, Au thin film served as both catalyst and source for Au nanowire was prepared by sputtering process. Average length of the grown Au nanowires was approximately 1 ${\mu}m$ on both the corning glass and Si wafer substrates, while the diameter and the density of which were dependent on the thickness of the Au thin film. To induce a super-saturated states for the Au particle catalyst and Au molecules during the Au nanowire synthesis, thickness of the Au catalyst thin film was fixed to 10 nm or 20 nm. Additionally, synthesis of the Au nanowires was carried out without introducing carrier gas in the tube furnace, and synthesis temperature was varied to investigate the temperature effect on the resulting Au nanowire characteristics.

HVPE를 이용하여 sapphire기판 위에서 후막 GaN의 성장특성을 조사하였다. 성장온도가 100$0^{\circ}C$에서 110$0^{\circ}C$로 증가하여도 성장속도는 영향을 받지않고 50-60$\mu\textrm{m}$/hr의 성장속도를 나타내었으나 표면특성과 결정성은 향상되었다. 110$0^{\circ}C$에서 성장된 후막 GaN는 DCXRD측정결과 451arcsec의 반티폭을 나타내었으며, PL측정결과 10K에서 19meV의 반치폭을 나타내었다. Ga 공급원의 온도가 93$0^{\circ}C$에서 77$0^{\circ}C$로 감소하여도 성장속도는 영향을 받지 않았으나, 77$0^{\circ}C$의 온도에서 GaN의 결정성이 향상되었다. HCI의 양이 5sccm에서 20sccm으로 증가함에 따라 성장속도가 15$\mu\textrm{m}$/hr에서 60$\mu\textrm{m}$/hr으로 증가하였으며, 표면특성도 향상되었다.

TiN thin films were grown on (100) Si substrate by atomic layer epitaxy at 130 - $240^{\circ}C$ using TEMAT and NH3 as precursors. Reactants were injected into the reactor in sequence of TEMAT precursor vapor pulse, N2 purging gas pulse, NH3 gas pulse and N2 purging gas pulse so that gas-phase reactions could be removed. The films were characterized by means of x-ray diffraction(XRD), 4-point probe, atomic force microscopy(AFM) and auger electron spectroscopy(AES).
