Structure and optical properties of cadmium sulphide-zinc oxide composite nanorods have been evaluated by suitable characterization techniques. The X-ray diffraction spectrum contains a series of peaks corresponding to reflections from various sets of lattice planes of hexagonal ZnO as well as CdS. The above observation is supported by the Micro-Raman spectroscopy result. The optical reflectance spectra of CdS-ZnO is compared with that of ZnO where we observe an enhanced absorption and hence diminished reflection from CdS-ZnO compared to that from only ZnO. A very small intensity of the visible photoluminescence peak observed at 550 nm proves that the ZnO nanorods have very low concentrations of point defects such as oxygen vacancies and zinc interstitials. The photocurrent in the visible region has been significantly enhanced due to deposition of CdS on the surface of the ZnO nanorods. CdS acts as a visible sensitizer because of its lower band gap compared to ZnO.

The properties of phosphorus doped ZnO multilayer thin films deposited on (001) sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) were investigated by using annealing treatment at various annealing temperature after deposition. The phosphorus doped ZnO multilayer was composed of phosphorus doped ZnO layer and two pure ZnO layers on sapphire substrate. The structural. electrical and optical properties of the ZnOthin films were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD). Hall measurements and photoluminescence (PL). As the annealing temperature optimized. the electrical properties of the ZnO multilayer showed a electron concentration of $1.56{\times}10^{16}/cm^3$, a resistivity of 17.97 ${\Omega}cm$. It was observed the electrical property of the film was changed by dopant activation effect as thermal annealing process

We report the structural ,optical and electrical properties of ZnO thin films depending on the variation of the film thickness. The properties of the films deposited on sapphire (001) substrates using a pulsed laser deposition technique (PLD) were characterized with XRD, hall measurement and photoluminescence (PL). In our study, the increase of the thickness of ZnO thin films shows the improvement of the structural and optical properties. The electric properties of the films were also well matched with the structural and optical properties

Green light emitting $Zn_2SiO_4$Mn and Al co-doped $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphor were synthesized by a sol-gel method combined with a furnace firing. The luminescent properties of the sample have been investigated. We have found that the phosphor powder with uniform shape show the maximum luminescent intensity when it is prepared with sol-gel method and fired at relatively high temperature ($1100{\sim}1300^{\circ}C$).

Manganese-doped $Zn_2SiO_4$ phosphors well known as a green emitter with high luminescence efficiency were prepared by the homogeneous precipitation method, and their photoluminescence properties under vacuum-ultraviolet (VUV) excitation were investigated. $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphors obtained by this method have exhibited a high luminance of property and a spherical shape of particles. In particular, the green emission intensity of zinc orthosilicate prepared as containing around 2 mole% of manganese was much stronger than that of the commercial $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn phosphor, while the decay time was longer. However, addition of $Al^{3+}$ and $Li^+$ into $Zn_2SiO_4$:Mn composition has significantly diminished the decay time of the phosphor without much degradation of the emission intensity.

Due to a low efficiency of phosphor with large Stoke shift in Vacuum Ultra Violet (VUV) excitation environment, new PDP phosphors which can be excited in UV excitation environment need to be developed. In this study, $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor was synthesized by solid-state reaction method at $1300^{\circ}C$ with varying Tb concentration, and its cross relaxation effect was observed by Photoluminescence (PL) measurement. In order to decrease $^5D_3{\to}7F_j$ transition with blue emission in $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor, Dy, co-activator element, was added to $Zn_2SiO_4:Tb$ phosphor. In 254nm excitation environment, broad-emission peak was observed around 524nm, green emission.

From time-resolved optical emission spectra, we have investigated the effects of a transverse magnetic field on the expansion of a plasma plume produced by laser ablation of a ZnO:$P_2O_5$ ceramic target in oxygen active atmosphere. The emission spectra of $Zn^{+*}$, $P^{+*}$, and $Zn^*$ neutrals in the presence of magnetic field turn out to be considerably different from those without magnetic field. The characteristics of the deposited films grown on amorphous fused silica substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) are examined by analyzing their photoluminescence (PL), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and UV-visible spectra.

ZnO 는 상온에서 3.37eV의 넓은 밴드갭과 60 meV의 엑시톤 결합에너지를 가지는 직접형 반도체로서 높은 투과성, 저가의 재료비, 비독성, 친환경적인 재료로서 발광다이오드, 디스플레이 응용분야 등 많은 부분에서 관심을 받고 있다. 유리 기판은무겁고 쉽게 깨지는 특성에도 불구하고 디스플레이 응용분야에서 폭넓게 사용되고 있으나 많은 연구자들은 이러한 문제점들을 해결하기 위해 플렉서블 기판위에서의 ZnO 성장 연구를 진행하고 있다 ZnO를 성장시키는 방법에는 molecular beam epitaxy (MEB), chemical vapordeposition (CVD), 그리고 atomic layer deposition (ALD)등많은 방법들이 있다. 이 연구에서 우리는 플렉서블기판의 플라즈마 전처리에 따른 ZnO의 구조적 그리고 광학적 특성에 대해 연구하였다. ZnO는 ALD 방법에 의해 성장되었고 반응물로는 temperature controlled bath 속에서 $10^{\circ}C$와 $30^{\circ}C$로 각각 온도를 유지시킨 diethylzinc (DEZn)과 distilled water ($H_2O$)를 사용하였다. 성장된 ZnO의 표면 morphology는atomic force microscope (AFM) 과 scanning electron microscope (SEM)으로 측정하였고, 광학적, 구조적특성은 Photoluminescence (PL)와 X-ray diffraction (XRD) 방법으로 각각으로 측정 되었다.

본 연구에서, 금 촉매가 4nm 증착된 GaN/$Al_2O_3$ 기판위에 nanowire와 nanowall과 같은 ZnO 나노구조물을 화학기상증착법을 이용하여 합성시켰다. 합성된 ZnO 나노구조물의 형상은 성장시간과 성장온도 조작을 통하여 제어하였다. 합성된 ZnO 나노구조물의 협상을 관찰하기 위해, 전계방출 주사전자현미경을 측정하였다. ZnO 나노구조물은 성장 온도가 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 $1100^{\circ}C$로 증가함에 따라 불균일한 막, nanowire, nanowall 형태로 형상이 점차적으로 변하였으며, 또한 각각의 성장온도에서 성장 시간이 증가함에 따라 나노와이어의 성장이 두드러지게 나타났다. 또한 합성된 ZnO 나노구조물의 결정성과 광학특성을 X-ray diffraction pattern과 상온 photoluminescence spectrum을 이용하여 각각 분석하였다. 이룰 통하여 합성된 ZnO 나노구조물은 wurzite 결정구조를 가지며, 380nm 영역에서 near band edge emission 에 의한 발광 peak와 500~550nm 영역에서 deep level emission에 의한 발광 peak이 나타나는 것을 확인하였다.
