Large-area graphene films produced by means of chemical vapor deposition (CVD) are polycrystalline and thus contain numerous grain boundaries that can greatly degrade their performance and produce inhomogeneous properties. A better grain boundary engineering in CVD graphene is essential to realize the full potential of graphene in large-scale applications. Here, we report a defect-selective atomic layer deposition (ALD) for stitching grain boundaries of CVD graphene with ZnO so as to increase the connectivity between grains. In the present ALD process, ZnO with hexagonal wurtzite structure was selectively grown mainly on the defect-rich grain boundaries to produce ZnO-stitched CVD graphene with well-connected grains. For the CVD graphene film after ZnO stitching, the inter-grain mobility is notably improved with only a little change in free carrier density. We also demonstrate how ZnO-stitched CVD graphene can be successfully integrated into wafer-scale arrays of top-gated field effect transistors on 4-inch Si and polymer substrates, revealing remarkable device-to-device uniformity.

ZnO thin films on (001) sapphire substrates have been deposited by pulsed laser deposition(PLD) technique at the oxygen pressure of 350 mTorr. In order to investigate the effect of post-annealing treatment with oxygenn pressure of 350 mTorr on the optical property of ZnO thin films, films have been annealed at various substrate temperatures after deposition. After post-annealing treatment in the oxygen ambient, the optical properties of the ZnO thin films were characterized by PL(Photoluminescence) and structural properties of the ZnO were characterized by XRD, and have investigated structural property and optical property for application of light emission device.

ZnO thin films for light emission device have been deposited on sapphire and silicon substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique(PLD). A Nd:YAG laser was used with the wavelength of355 nm. In order to investigate the emission properties of ZnO thin films, Pl measurements with an Ar ion laser a light source using an excitation wavelength of 351 nm and a power of 100 mW are used. All spectra were taken at room temperature by using a grating spectrometer and a photomultiplier detector. ZnO exhibited Pl bands centers around 390, 510 and 640 nm, labeled near ultra-violet(UV), green and orange bands. Structural properties of ZnO thin films are analyzed with X-ray diffraction(XRD).

ZnO nanowlres (NWs) were fabricated using Au as catalyst for a method combining laser ablation cluster formation and vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) growth. The target used in synthesis was pure ZnO ceramics. Two different substrates were used; (0001)-oriented sapphires and Au-coated sapphires. The Au thin film was deposited by thermal evaporation and the thickness was about 50 ${\AA}$. ZnO NWs were only formed in case of that used catalyst metal. Field effect scanning electron microscopic (FESEM) investigation showed that the average diameter of ZnO NWs was about 70 nm and the typical lengths varied from $3{\sim}4{\mu}m$.

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.

Al-doped zinc oxide (ZnO:Al) films for transparent electrodes in thin film solar cells were deposited on glass substrates at a low temperature of $200^{\circ}C$ by rf magnetron sputtering. The transmittance of the ZnO:Al films in the visible range was 87%. The lowest resistivity of the ZnO:Al films was about $5.8{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}$ cm at the Al content of 2.5 wt%. After deposition, the surface of ZnO:Al films were etched in dilute HCl (0.5%) for the investigation of the change in the electrical properties and the surface morphology due to etching.

Al doped ZnO(AZO) films as a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) electrode were deposited on glass, polyethylene naphthalate (PEN) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) at room temperature by a conventional rf-magneton sputtering (CMS) and a facing target sputtering (FTS) using Al2O3 and ZnO targets. In order to investigation of AZO properties, the structural, surface morphology, electrical, and optical characteristics of AZO films were respectively analyzed. The resistivities of AZO films using FTS system were $6.50{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on glass, $7.0{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PEN, and $7.4{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PET substrates, while the values of AZO films using CMS system were $7.6{\times}10-4{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on glass, $1.20{\times}10-3{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PEN, and $1.58{\times}10-3{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ on PET substrates. The AZO-films deposited by FTS system showed uniform surface compared to those of the films by CMS system. We thought that the films deposited by FTS system had low stress due to bombardment of high energetic particles during CMS process, resulted in enhanced electrical conductivity and crystalline quality by highly c-axis preferred orientation and closely packed nano-crystalline of AZO films using FTS system.

Tetrapod-shaped ZnO crystals were synthesized through a simple oxidation of metallic Zn powder in air without the presence of any catalysts or substrates. X-ray diffraction data revealed that the ZnO crystals had wurtzite structure. It is supposed that the growth of the tetrapod proceeded in a vapor-solid growth mechanism. As the amount of the source powder increased, the size of the tetrapod decreased. The tip morphology of the tetrapod changed from a needle-like shape to a spherical shape with the oxidation time. ZnO crystals with rod shape were fabricated via the oxidation of Zn and Sn mixture. Sn played an important role in the formation of ZnO crystals with different morphology by affecting the growth mode of ZnO crystals. The cathodoluminescent properties were measured for the samples. The strongest green emission was observed for the rod-shaped ZnO crystals, suggesting that the crystals had the high density of oxygen vacancies.
