MBS에 의해(001)GaAs기판 위에 성장된 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se(x=1.0, 7.4, 9.5 %)반도체 박막과 (ZnSe/FeSe)반도체 초격자 박막의 미세구조를 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 연구하였다. Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막 시편의 경우, 박막과 기판 사이의 격자 불일치때문에 a/2<110>형태의 버거즈 벡터를 가지는 부정합 전위를 관찰하였다. 모든 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막과 기판의 계면은 뚜렷이 구별되었고, 계면에서 산화물이나 이물질이 존재하지 않았다. 또한, (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 성장시키기 전에 GaAs기판 위에 ZnSe바닥층을 넣음으로써 고품질의 (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 얻었다. (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자에 있는 FeSe는 섬아연광 결정구조로 존재하였다.

ZnS/ZnSe 초격자가 열벽적층성장에 의하여 GaAs(100) 기판 위에 성장되었으며 그 구조가 x-선 회절에 의하여 분석되었다. 변형된 초격자의 x-선 회절은 각 층의 두께, 변형, 상호확산 그리고 초격자 주기의 변동에 대한 유용한 정보를 제공한다. S와 Se의 상호확산의 길이는 $2\;{\AA}$ 이하인 것으로 추정된다.

본 연구에서는 CdS, CdSe, ZnS, ZnSe 반도체를 첨가한 SK-16 유리와 ZK-1 유리를 직접 제작하고 열처리하여 유리속에 반도체의 미세결정을 생성시켜 착색유리를 만들고 sharp-cut용 광학 filter로써의 특성을 조사하였다. CdS, CdSe, ZnS 및 ZnSe 반도체를 첨가한 SK-16유리는 열처리돈도를 달리하였을 경우 광흡수단을 변화시킬 수 있는 범위가 30nm정도로 아주 좁았다. 그러나 $CdS_{1-x}Se_x$를 첨가한 SK-16 유리는 x값을 변화시키면서 열처리 함으로써 광흡수단을 ~130nm범위에서 변화시킬 수 있었고 광흡수계수도 높아 sharp-cut용 광학 filter용으로 좋은 특성을 나타내었다. CdSe와 $CdS_{0.5}Se_{0.5}$ 반도체를 첨가한 ZK-1 유리는 열처리온도를 달리 함으로서 흡수단을 변화시킬 수 있는 범위가 ~100nm나 되고 광흡수게수도 아주 높아 sharp-cut용 광학 fiter로 아주 우수한 특성을 나타내었다.

In this work, we reported the sulfur compositional variation of ZnS$\_$x/Se$\_$1-x/ epitaxial layers with growth temperature and BEP ration of ZnX/Se/)P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/) grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The sulfur composition of ZnSSe epitaxial layers was varied sensitively on the growth temperature and show different linear relationship with growth temperature and BEP ration of ZnS/Se(P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/), which revealed -0.107 %$\^{C}$ at (P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/)=0.30 and -0.052 %$\^{C}$ at (P$\_$ZnS//P$\_$Se/)=0.158 rspectively. A reference data for the accurate control of the sulfur composition and the growth of high quality ZnSSe/GaAs epitaxial layers was provided.

지금까지의 실험결과에서 다음과 같은 요약할 수 있다. 1) 사원계 $Zn_{1-x}Mg_{x}S_y$ $S_{1-y}$(x=0.13, y=0.16) 에피층은 다소 불규칙한 성장을 나타내어 역삼각형의 결함과 길고 직선인 적층결함으로 형성된 수지상 형태가 발견되었다. 2)역삼각형 결함은 {111}면에 형성된 적층결함으로 둘러싸여 있고 내부에는 결함이 없으나 계면과 수직인 방향인 <001>방향으로 콘트라스트 차이를 이루는 밴드가 형성되었다. 3) 기판과 정합을 이루고 있고 결함이 없는 ZnSe 버퍼 층이 관찰되었으며 결함 및 므와레 줄무늬는 버퍼층과 4원계 에피층과의 계면에서 형성된다. 4) 4원계 에피층에 형성된 적층결함은 Mg 원소의 효과로 길이가 60nm 이상 폭이 40nm 이상의 넓은 간격을 이루고 있다. 5) 긴 적층결함으로 둘러쌓인 수지상 구조에는 국부적으로 주기를 이루며 강한 콘트라스트 차이를 나타내는 줄무늬가 관찰되는데, 이는 Mg 및 S의 국부적인 화학적 조성차이에 기인한 탄성 변형 효과로 생각된다.

Quantum dots (QDs) are extensively employed for biomedical research as a fluorescence reporter and their use for various labeling applications will continue to increase as they are preferred over conventional labeling methods for various reasons. However, concerns have been raised over the toxicity of these particles in the biological system. Till date no thorough investigation has been carried out to identify the molecular signatures of QD mediated toxicity. In this study we evaluated the toxicity of CdSe, $Cd_{1-x}Zn_xS$/ZnS and CdSe/ZnS quantum dots having different spectral properties (red, blue, green) using human embryonic kidney fibroblast cells (HEK293). Cell viability assay for both short and long duration exposure show concentration material dependent toxicity, in the order of CdSe > $Cd_{1-x}Zn_xS$/ZnS > CdSe/ZnS. Genome wide changes in the expression of genes upon QD exposure was also analyzed by wholegenome microarray. All the three QDs show increase in the expression of genes related to apoptosis, inflammation and response towards stress and wounding. Further comparison of coated versus uncoated CdSe QD-mediated cell death and molecular changes suggests that ZnS coating could reduce QD mediated cytotoxicity to some extent only.

Recently, $Cu_2ZnSn(S_xSe_{1-x})_4$ (CZTSSe) has been received a tremendous attraction as light absorber material in thin film solar cells (TFSCs), because of its earth abundance, inexpensive and non-toxic constituents and versatile material characteristics. Kesterite CZTSSe thin films were synthesized by sulfo-selenization of sputtered Cu/Sn/Zn stacked metallic precursors. The sulfo-selenization of Cu/Sn/Zn stacked metallic precursor thin films has been carried out in a graphite box using rapid thermal annealing (RTA) technique. Annealing process was done under sulfur and selenium vapor pressure using Ar gas at $520^{\circ}C$ for 10 min. The effect of tuning Se/(S+Se) precursor composition ratio on the properties of CZTSSe films has been investigated. The XRD, Raman, FE-SEM and XRF results indicate that the properties of sulfo-selenized CZTSSe thin films strongly depends on the Se/(S+Se) composition ratio. In particular, the CZTSSe TFSCs with Se/(S+Se) = 0.37 exhibits the best power conversion efficiency of 4.83% with $V_{oc}$ of 467 mV, $J_{sc}$ of $18.962mA/cm^2$ and FF of 54%. The systematic changes observed with increasing Se/(S+Se) ratio have been discussed in detail.

In order to find the structural characteristics of the thin films of group II-VI semiconductor compounds compared with those of powder materials, films were made of 4 powders of ZnS, CdS, CdSe, and CdTe(Aldrich), each with 99.99 % purity. For the ZnS/CdS multi-layers, the ZnS layer was coated over the CdS layer on an $AlO_x$ membrane, which served as a protective layer within a vacuum at the average speed of 1 ${\AA}$/sec. After studying the structures of the group II-VI semiconductor thin films by using X-ray spectroscopy, we found that the ZnS, ZnS/CdS, CdS, and CdSe films were hexagonal and exhibited some degree of preferred orientation. Also, the particles of the thin films of II-VI semiconductor compounds proved to be more homogeneous in size compared to those of the powder materials. These results were further verified through scanning electron microscopy(SEM), EDX analysis, and powder and thin film X-ray diffraction.

$Cu_2ZnSn(S_xSe_{1-x})_4$ (CZTSSe) absorber thin films were prepared on Mo coated soda lime glass substrates by sulfo-selenization of sputtered stacked Zn-Sn-Cu precursor thin films. The Zn-Sn-Cu precursor thin films were sulfo-selenized inside a graphite box containing S and Se powder using rapid thermal processing furnace at $540^{\circ}C$ in Ar atmosphere with pre-treatment at $300^{\circ}C$. The effect of different S/Se ratio on the structural, compositional, morphological and electrical properties of the CZTSSe thin films were studied using XRD (X-ray diffraction), XRF (X-ray fluorescence analysis), FE-SEM (field-emission scanning electron microscopy), respectively. The XRD, FE-SEM, XRF results indicated that the properties of sulfo-selenized CZTSSe thin films were strongly related to the S/Se composition ratio. In particular, the CZTS thin film solar cells with S/(S+Se)=0.25 shows best conversion efficiency of 4.6% ($V_{oc}$ : 348 mV, $J_{sc}$ : $26.71mA/cm^2$, FF : 50%, and active area : $0.31cm^2$). Further detailed analysis and discussion for effect of S/Se composition ratio on the properties CZTSSe thin films will be discussed.
