Zinc gallate, $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn^{2+}$ co-doped with different concentrations of $Mg^{2+}$ (0.001- 0.5 mol%) was prepared by solid state synthesis method. These compositions were investigated for their photoluminescence and cathodoluminescence properties. The optimized composition $Zn_{0.990}Mg_{0.005}Ga_2O_4:Mn_{0.005}$ shows higher luminescence intensity compared to the parent phosphor. The intense green emission peak was found at 504 nm. The $Mg^{2+}$ doping does not affect much the decay time. It remains <10 ms for these compositions which make them potential candidate for application in TV screens.

To diffuse Zn at solid-state, the $SiO_2/ZnO/SiO_2$ wafers was made by PECVD and RF Spotter. Thicknesses of bottom $SiO_2$ and cap $SiO_2$ was about $500{\AA}$ and about $3500{\AA}$. First test was Diffusion temperatures were $760^{\circ}C$, $780^{\circ}C$, and $800^{\circ}C$, and diffusion times were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hr and 2nd test was Diffusion temperatures were $760^{\circ}C$, $720^{\circ}C$, and $680^{\circ}C$, and diffusion times were 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 hr. LED chips were fabricated by the diffused wafers at Fab. The peak wavelength of all chips showed about $625{\sim}650\;nm$ and red color Main reason for Iv change was by diffusion temperature not diffusion time. The lower temperature was the higher Iv. We thick that these properties is because of the very high diffusion temperature.

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are coated on green $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor for filed emission display. The cathodoluminescent intensity of CNTs-phosphor is improved compared with uncoated phosphors. Also the effects of phosphors-coated CNTs on electrical and degradation characteristics are investigated to reveal the reason of the enhanced emission intensity.

The most Important research topic in the development of ZnO LED and LD is the production of p-type ZnO thin film that has minimal stress with outstanding stoichiometric ratio. In this study, Phosphorus diffused into the undoped ZnO thin films using the ampoule-tube method for the production of p-type znO thin films. The undoped ZnO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering system on $GaAs_{0.6}P_{0.4}$/GaP and Si wafers. 4N Phosphorus (P) was diffused into the undoped ZnO thin films in ampoule-tube which was performed and $630^{\circ}C$ during 3hr. We found the diffusion condition of the conductive ZnO films which had p-type properties with the highest mobility of above 532 $cm^2$/Vs compared with other studies PL spectra measured at 10K for the purpose of analyzing optical properties of p-type ZnO thin film showed strong PL intensity in the UV emission band around 365nm ~ 415nm and 365nm ~ 385nm.

$(Ga_2O_3)_x(ZnO)_{100-x}$ (GZO) films were prepared at room temperature by using a facing target sputtering (FTS) system and their electrical resistivites was investigated as a function of the $Ga_2O_3$ content. The GZO film with an atomic ratio of $Ga_2O_3$ of x= 7 wt.%, shows the lowest resistivity of $7.5{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. The GZO films were also prepared at various substrate temperatures from room temperature to $300^{\circ}C$, and their electrical resistivity was found to be improved as the substrate temperature was increased, A very low resistivity of $2.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ that is almost comparable with that of ITO film was obtained in the GZO films prepared at the substrate temperature of $300^{\circ}C$ by using the FTS.

최근 새로운 형태의 디스플레이에 관한 관심이 집중되고 있다. 이들 중 특히 투명 산화물 반도체는 기존의 실리콘 기반의 반도체에 비해 가시광 영역에서 높은 투과도를 보이며, 또한 기존의 비정질 실리콘 소자에 비해서 10 cm2/Vs이상의 높은 전하 이동도 값을 가진다. 본 연구에서는 투명 산화물 반도체 소재 중 InGaZnO4를 사용하여 펄스 레이저 방법으로 Al2O3 (0001)기판 위에 비정질 상태인 a-InGaZnO4 박막을 성장 시켰다. 박막의 증착 온도를 변화(RT, $50^{\circ}C$, $150^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$, $550^{\circ}C$)시켜 성장된 박막의 구조적, 화학적, 전기적 그리고 광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 증착 온도가 $450{\sim}550^{\circ}C$ 사이에서 박막의 상태가 비정질(amorphous)에서 polycrystalline으로 성장되는 것을 X-Ray Diffraction과 Field Emission-Scanning Electron Microscope를 이용하여 확인하였고 이는 InGaZnO4 박막의 결정화 온도가 $450^{\circ}C$ 이상임을 알 수 있었다. X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy를 통해서 target 물질과 성장된 박막의 조성 및 화학적 상태를 고찰한 결과, 박막의 결정성 변화가 화학적 상태 변화와는 무관하다는 사실을 알 수 있었다. 온도 의존 비저항 측정을 통해 박막이 반도체 성향을 가지는 것을 확인 하였다. 또한 Hall 측정 결과 증착 온도가 올라 갈수록 전하 밀도는 증가 하지만, 전하 이동도는 다결정 박막($550^{\circ}C$)에서 급격히 감소하고, 이로 인해 비저항 값이 크게 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 이는 다결정 박막 내 존재하는 grain boundary들이 이동도 값에 영향을 준다는 것으로 추측할 수 있다. Ultra violet-Visible-Near Infrared 측정을 통해 가시광 영역에서 80%이상의 투과율을 나타내며 증착 온도가 증가함에 따라 에너지 밴드갭(Eg)이 커지는 것을 확인 할 수 있는데 이는 Hall 측정 결과에서 확인한 전하 밀도의 증가로 인해 에너지 밴드갭이 커지는 Burstein-Moss 효과로 설명할 수 있다.

ZnO thin films are of considerable interest because they can be customized by various coating technologies to have high electrical conductivity and high visible light transmittance. Therefore, ZnO thin films can be applied to various optoelectronic device applications such as transparent conducting thin films, solar cells and displays. In this study, ZnO rod and thin films are fabricated using aqueous chemical bath deposition (CBD), which is a low-cost method at low temperatures, and environmentally friendly. To investigate the structural, electrical and optical properties of ZnO for the presence of citrate ion, which can significantly affect crystal form of ZnO, various amounts of the citrate ion are added to the aqueous CBD ZnO reaction bath. As a result, ZnO crystals show a nanorod form without citrate, but a continuous thin film when citrate is above a certain concentration. In addition, as the citrate concentration increases, the electrical conductivity of the ZnO thin films increases, and is almost unchanged above a certain citrate concentration. Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) solar cell substrates are used to evaluate whether aqueous CBD ZnO thin films can be applicable to real devices. The performance of aqueous CBD ZnO thin films shows performance similar to that of a sputter-deposited ZnO:Al thin film as top transparent electrodes of CIGS solar cells.

ZnO thn films are grown on five kinds of oxide substrates including $c-Al_2O_3(0001),\;r-Al_2O_3(01-12)$, MgO(100), MgO(111), $NdGaO_3(110)$ by rf magnetron sputtering and effects substrate types on properties of ZnO thin films ate investigated. In order to compare the substrate effects one growth condition is selected and all the films are grown by the same growth condition. Structural and optical properties of the ZnO films ate different depending on the substrates although the films ate not epitaxial but polycrystalline. The ZnO film grown on $NdGaO_3(100)$ substrate shows the best overall properties among the films grown on substrates investigated in this study.

In this study, we investigated synthesis and characteristics of gallium oxide ($Ga_2O_3$) powders prepared by precipitation method. $Ga_2O_3$ powders were synthesized using $Ga(NO_3)_3$ as a starting material and $NH_4OH$ as a precipitant. The oxidation temperature of $Ga(OH)_3$ and phase transition temperature of $Ga_2O_3$ was revealed using TG-DSC analysis. The crystal structural change of $Ga_2O_3$ powders was investigated by XRD analysis. The morphologies and size distributions of $Ga_2O_3$ particles were analyzed using SEM.
