We report a synthesis of non-toxic InP nanocrystals using non-pyrolytic precursors instead of pyrolytic and unstable tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphine, a popular precursor for synthesis of InP nanocrystals. In this study, InP nanocrystals are successfully synthesized using hexaethyl phosphorous triamide (HPT) and the synthesized InP nanocrystals showed a broad and weak photoluminescence (PL) spectrum. As synthesized InP nanocrystals are subjected to further surface modification process to enhance their stability and photoluminescence. Surface modification of InP nanocrystals is done at $230^{\circ}C$ using 1-dodecanethiol, zinc acetate and fatty acid as sources of ZnS shell. After surface modification, the synthesized InP/ZnS nanocrystals show intense PL spectra centered at the emission wavelength 612 nm through 633 nm. The synthesized InP/ZnS core/shell structure is confirmed with X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Inductively Coupled Plasma - Atomic Emission Spectrometer (ICP-AES). After surface modification, InP/ZnS nanocrystals having narrow particle size distribution are observed by Field Emission Transmission Electron Microscope (FE-TEM). In contrast to uncapped InP nanocrystals, InP/ZnS nanocrystals treated with a newly developed surface modified procedure show highly enhanced PL spectra with quantum yield of 47%.

본 연구에서는 청색 발광다이오드, 광전모듈레이터, 태양전지의 창문층 등의 광범위한 응용분야를 갖는 ZnS를 용액 성장법에 의해 nanometer 사이즈의 입자로 구성된 박막의 형태로 슬라이드 유리기판에 성장하고 구조적, 광학적 특성을 분석하고, 이 결과를 토대로 ZnS박막의 양자사이즈효과에 대해 연구하였다. 성장조건에 관련된 인자는 precursor 용액의 농도, 성장온도, 암모니아 용액의 농도, 성장시간 등이었다. X-선 회절분석 결과, 본 연구에서 용액성장법으로 성장한 ZnS박막은 cubic 구조($\beta$-ZnS)를 가졌다. 성장온도가 $75^{\circ}C$일 때 막의 표면상태가 가장 양호했으며 입자사이즈의 균일도도 가장 우수했다 광에너지 변화에 따른 광투과도 측정 결과, 본 연구의 ZnS 시료는 성장조건을 조절함에 따라 에너지밴드갭이 3.69 eV~3.91 eV까지 조절 할 수 있었고, 이는 벌크 ZnS의 에너지밴드갭인 3.65 eV보다 훨씬 높은 수치로서 양자사이즈효과에 의한 blue-shift 현상이 용액성장법으로 합성된 ZnS에서 큰 폭으로 나타남을 알 수 있었다. 그리고 photoluminescence(PL)측정 결과, ZnS 입자의 미세성으로 인한 입자 표면준위의 영향으로 PL 피크가 에너지밴드갭보다 훨씬 적은 에너지 영역에서 발생했다. 특히 PL피크의 위치가 입자사이즈와 막두께에 따라 shift했는데, 이는 용액성장법으로 성장한 ZnS의 경우 본 연구에서 최초로 보고되는 것이다.

We have deposited ZnO thin films by ultraviolet (UV) enhanced atomic layer deposition using diethylznic (DEZ) and water (H2O) as precursors with UV light. The atomic layer deposition relies on alternating dose of the precursor on the surface and subsequent chemisorption of the precursors with self-limiting growth mechanism. Though ALD is useful to deposition conformal and precise thin film, the surface reactions of the atomic layer deposition are not completed at low temperature in many cases. In this experiment, we focused on the effects of UV radiation during the ALD process on the properties of the inorganic thin films. The surface reactions were found to be complementary enough to yield uniform inorganic thin films and fully react between DEZ and H2O at the low temperature by using UV irradiation. The UV light was effective to obtain conductive ZnO film. And the stability of TFT with UV-enhanced ZnO was improved than ZnO by thermal ALD method. High conductive UV-enhanced ZnO film have the potential to applicability of the transparent electrode.

ZnO/n-Si junctions were fabricated by spin coating with ZnO precursor produced by the sol-gel process. In order to increase the electrical conductivity of ZnO films, the films were n-doped with Al impurity and subsequently annealed at about $450^{\circ}C$ under reducing environments. The ohmic contacts between n-Si and AI for a bottom electrode were successfully fabricated by doping the rear surface of Si substrate with phosphorous atoms. The front surface of the substrate was also doped with phosphorous atoms for improving the efficiency of the solar cells. Consequently, conversion efficiencies ranging up to about 5.3% were obtained. These efficiencies were found to decrease slowly with time because of the oxide films formed at the ZnO/Si interface upon oxygen penetration through the porous ZnO. Oxygen barrier layers could be necessary in order to prevent the reduction of conversion efficiencies.

Self assembled $Zn_{x-1}Cd_xS$ nanowires, synthesized on a Indium tin oxide coated glass substrate with low composition of Cd as x=0.09, were fabricated non-precursor via a co-evaporation method using of solid sources of CdS and ZnS. We studies that ZnCdS nanowires are dislocation-free and the single crystalline hexagonal wurtzite structure showed by transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction pattern. Cathode luminescence spectra showed an near band edge peak at 383nm originated from nanowires at 80K and 300K. Core level spectra of the Cd 3d, Zn 2p and S 2p in the ZnCdS nanorods were obtained by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Prepared ZnCdS nanorods showed different shape with increase of substrate temperature at the growth.

수열합성법에 의해 ZnO 씨앗층이 코팅된 Zn 기판 위에 제조된 ZnO 나노로드는 주로 ZnO 전구체 농도에 따라 연구되었다. 주사전자현미경과 X선 회절분석기를 사용하여 얻은 그림은 실험 조건에 따라 변화되는 ZnO 나노로드의 미세구조와 결정상을 밝혀내기 위해 측정되었다. 나노로드의 형태는 전구체 농도에 강하게 결정된다. 예를 들어, 600~700 nm의 직경과 $6.75{\mu}m$의 길이를 갖는 육방정계 구조의 수직 성장된 ZnO 나노로드는 0.015 M의 가장 높은 농도에서 명확하게 관찰되었다. 강한 육방정계 구조는 가장 높은 PL 강도와 $1000{\mu}A$에서 약 6.069 V의 우수한 전압 값과 관련이 있다고 생각된다.

The rod-shaped $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ particles were synthesized via a topotactic reaction, in which goethite (${\alpha}-FeOOH$) particles are the main constituents. The phases, microstructures and magnetic properties of these particles were studied using XRD, FE-SEM and VSM. The precursor solution consisted of $NiSO_4{\cdot}xH_2O$, $ZnSO_4{\cdot}xH_2O$, goethite and D.I. water werereacted at four different temperatures (50, 70, 90, $100^{\circ}C$) to generate four differently precipitated particles respectively. During the co-precipitation reaction, the pH of the solution was maintained at 8.0 using NaOH. The particles co-precipitated and calcined at a temperature of $700^{\circ}C$, exhibited a rod-shape similar to its original goethite, which means that the shape of Ni-Zn ferrite particles can be topotactically controlled by the goethite. The particles synthesized at 70 and $90^{\circ}C$ have a saturation magnetization of 29 and 35 emu/g respectively; representing better values than the ones synthesized at the 50 and $100^{\circ}C$, in which some second phases such as $Fe_2O_3$ were observed.

La doped CuO-ZnO-$Al_2O_3$ powders are prepared by sol-gel method with aluminum isopropoxide and primary distilled water as precursor and solvent. In this synthesized process, the obtained metal oxides caused the precursor such as copper (II) nitrate hydrate and zinc (II) nitrate hexahydrate were added. To improve the surface areas of La doped CuO-ZnO-$Al_2O_3$ powder, sorbitan (z)-mono-9-octadecenoate (Span 80) was added. The synthesized powder was calcined at various temperatures. The dopant was found to affect the surface area and particle size of the mixed oxide, in conjunction with the calcined temperature. The structural analysis and textual properties of the synthesized powder were measured with an X-ray Diffractometer (XRD), a Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM), Bruner-Emmett-Teller surface analysis (BET), Thermogravimetry-Differential Thermal analysis (TG/DTA), $^{27}Al$ solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and transform infrared microspectroscopy (FT-IR). An increase of surface area with Span 80 was observed on La doped CuO-ZnO-$Al_2O_3$ powders from $25m^2$/g to $41m^2$/g.

$ZnO/TiO_2$ nanocomposites were synthesized via a modified sol-gel technique by incorporating 30 and 70 wt% $TiO_2$ nanopowder into a ZnO sol-gel matrix. Zinc acetate dihydrate was used as the ZnO precursor and de-ionized water as the solvent, while titanium oxysulfate was employed for the synthesis of $TiO_2$ nanopowder. The synthesized $ZnO/TiO_2$ nanocomposites were characterized by x-ray diffraction, UV-vis spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and transmission electron microscopy. The $ZnO/TiO_2$ nanocomposites showed both the ZnO (wurtzite) and $TiO_2$ (anatase) phases. The average ZnO crystallite size of the $ZnO/TiO_2$ nanocomposites was found to be about 26.3 nm. The TEM results confirmed that spherical $TiO_2$ particles were embedded in the ZnO matrix. $TiO_2$ particles attached onto the rod-like ZnO particles were also observed. The $ZnO/TiO_2$ nanocomposites exhibited optical absorption properties superior to those of pure ZnO and $TiO_2$.
