ZnO is well-known as a promising material for optical communication systems and electronic displays. ZnO:Er thin films were deposited on c-plane sapphire substrates by rf magnetron sputtering, and the effects of sputtering parameters and the annealing conditions on the luminescence in the visible range were investigated. Luminescent properties depended on the crystallinity of films and annealing atmosphere. Highly c-axis oriented ZnO:Er films showed a strong emission band at 465 nm and a weak emission at 525 nm due to the energy transition of $^{4}I_{15/2}-^{4}F_{5/2}\;and\;^{4}I_{15/2}-^{2}H_{11/2}$, respectively. ZnO:Er thin films annealed at air atmosphere were superior to those annealed in $H_2$ in photoluminescence intensity.

ZnO epilayer were synthesized by the pulesd laser deposition(PLD) process on $Al_2O_3$ substrate after irradiating the surface of the ZnO sintered pellet by the ArF(193nm) excimer laser. The substrate temperatures was $400^{\circ}C$. The crystalline structure of epilayer was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of ZnO epilayer measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $8.27{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}\;and\;299\;cm^2V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the ZnO obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, $E_g(T)\;=\;3.3973\;eV\;-\;(2.69{\times}10^{-4}\;eV/K)T^2/(T\;+\;463K)$. After the as-grown ZnO epilayer was annealed in Zn atmospheres, oxygen and vaccum the origin of point defects of ZnO atmospheres has been investigated by the photoluminescence(PL) at 10 K. The native defects of $V_{Zn}$, Vo, $Zn_{int}$, and $O_{int}$ obtained by PL measurements were classified as a donors or accepters type.

실리콘 기판위에 성장된 ZnO 나노막대에 NiO를 코팅하여 core-shell 형태의 나노막대를 제작하였다. 이렇게 제작된 나노막대를 수소 분위기에서 열처리한 결과 ZnO 나노막대 표면에 Ni 나노점들이 형성됨을 확인하였다. 이러한 여러 종류의 나노막대의 저온(5K)에서 광발광 (photoluminescence) 특성을 연구하였는데 $ZnO{\rightarrow}NiO-ZnO{\rightarrow}Ni$ 나노점-ZnO 순서로 시료가 변화함에 따라 속박된 exciton들의 전이 에너지와 진폭이 변화함을 확인하였다. ZnO에 비하여 NiO-ZnO 시료의 경우 받개에 속박된 exciton ($A^0X$) 전이가 크게 감소함을 보이나 Ni 나노점-ZnO 시료의 경우 $A^0X$ 전이가 가장 우세함을 보인다. 이러한 현상은 수소화 과정에서 침투한 Ni과 수소 이온이 주개로 작용하였기 때문이다.

ZnO thin films were deposited on a-, c- and m- plane oriented 4H-SiC substrates by pulsed laser deposition. ZnO nanowires were formed on substrates by tube furnace. Shape and density of the ZnO nanowires were investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope. Average surface roughness and root mean square surface roughness were measure by atomic force microscope. Optical properties were investigated by Photoluminescence measurement. Density of ZnO nanowires grown on a-, c- and m-plane oriented 4H-SiC substrates were 17.89 ${\mu}m^{-2}$, 9.98 ${\mu}m^{-2}$ and 2.61 ${\mu}m^{-2}$, respectively.

The electron concentration of ZnO thin film fabricated by pulsed laser deposition was controlled by varying oxygen gas pressure. The electron concentration of ZnO was increased from $10^{17}\;to\;10^{19}/cm^3$ as oxygen gas pressure increased from 20 mTorr to 350 mTorr. Ultraviolet(UV) intensity of photoluminescence of ZnO was controlled, too. UV intensity of ZnO was increased as oxygen gas pressure increased from 20 mTorr to 350 mTorr. The relation between electron concentration and UV intensity was investigated.

Effects of doping concentration and annealing atmosphere on the luminescent properties of $Er^{3+}$ doped ZnO phosphor powders were investigated. Photoluminescence (PL) spectra of ZnO:Er exhibit an orange emission band at around 575 nm, while those of pure ZnO show a green emission at 520 nm. Emission difference between ZnO:Er and pure ZnO is attributed to the energy transfer of Er ions in ZnO. The highest PL intensity is obtained by doping 1 mol% Er to ZnO. Luminescent properties of ZnO:Er phosphors annealed at $N_2$+vacuum atmosphere are superior to those annealed at $N_2$ atmosphere.

Au 촉매를 코팅한 사파이어 기판 상에서 산화아연과 흑연 분말을 혼합한 분말재료를 이용하여 VLS (vapor-liquid-solid) 법으로 산화아연 반도체 나노선을 합성하였다. 제조된 산화아연 나노선은 380 nm에서 근 자외선 영역의 NBE (near-band edge) 발광과 600 nm 부근의 가시광선 영역에서 넓게 퍼져 발광하는 상대적으로 강한 DL (deep level) 발광이 확인되었다($I_{NBE}/I_{DL}$ <1). 산화아연 나노선을 효율적인 단일 파장 자외선 발광체에 적용될 수 있도록 NBE 발광을 극대화함과 동시에 DL 발광을 억제시키기 위하여 본 실험에서는 합성된 산화아연 나노선에 수소 플라즈마 처리를 하였다. 플라즈마 처리시간이 길어짐에 따라(120초 이상) 발광특성의 향상정도는 점차로 감소하였지만, 수소 플라즈마 처리를 통해 나노선 내부에 존재하는 불순물 제어 등으로 다소 짧은 시간의 플라즈마 처리로(90초 이내) DL발광대비 NBE발광의 세기가 약 4배로 향상됨을 확인 하였다($I_{NBE}/I_{DL}$ ~4).

The influence of annealing process in an $O_2$ atmosphere on the photoluminescence (PL) spectra properties of ZnS nanowires has been investigated. ZnS nanowires with the diameters approximately 100 nm and the lengths a few tens micrometers were synthesized by evaporating ZnS powders on Si substrates while using an Au thin film as a catalyst. ZnS nanowires had an NBE emission band at 430 nm in the violet region. The emission intensity was improved drastically by a process in which ZnS nanowires were heat-treated at $500^{\circ}C$ in an $O_2$ atmosphere for 45 minutes.
