Due to their better photosensitivity in X-ray, the amorphous selenium based photoreceptor is widely used on the X-ray conversion materials. It was possible to control the charge carrier transport of amorphous selenium by suitably alloying a-Se with other elements(e,g. As, Cl). The charge transport properties of amorphous Selenium is decided on hole which is induced from metal to selenium in metal-selenium junction and which is transferred in a-Se bulk. This phenomenon is resulted of changing electric field owing to increasing of space charge by deep trap of a-Se bulk. In this paper, We dopped the chlorine to compensate deep hole trap and deposited blocking layer using dielectric material to prevent from increasing space charge for injection charge between metal electrode and a-Se layer. We compared space charge and the decreasing of trap density through measuring dark and photo current.

Light induced degradation is one of the major research challenges of hydrogenated amorphous silicon related thin film silicon solar cells. Amorphous silicon shows creation of metastable defect states, originating from elevated concentration of dangling bonds during light exposure. The metastable defect states work as recombination centers, and mostly affects quality of intrinsic layer in solar cells. In this paper we present results of light induced degradation in thin film silicon solar cells and discussion on physical origin, mechanism and practical solutions of light induced degradation in thin film silicon solar cells. In-situ light-soaking IV measurement techniques are presented. We also present thin film silicon material with silicon nano-quantum dots embedded within amorphous matrix, which shows superior stability during light-soaking. Our results suggest that solar cell using silicon nano-quantum dots in abosrber layer shows superior stability under light soaking, compared to the conventional amorphous silicon solar cell.

Silicon carbide (SiC) thin films were deposited on the porous silicon substrates by chemical vapour de-position(CVD) using MTS as a source material. The deposited films were ${\beta}$-SiC with poor crystallity con-firmed by XRD measurement. It was considered that the films showed the mixed characteistics of cry-stalline and amorphous SiC where amorphous SiC where amorphous SiC played a role of buffer layer in interface between as-dep films and Si substrate. The buffer layer reduced lattice mismatch to some extent the generally occurs when SiC films are deposited on Si. The low temperature (10K) PL (phtoluminescence) studies showed two broad bands with peaks at 600 and 720 for the films deposited at 1100$^{\circ}C$ The maximum PL peak of the crystalline SiC was observed at 600 nm and the amrophous SiC of 720 nm was also confirmed. PL peak due the amorphous SiC was smaller than that of the crystalline SiC, PL of porous Si might be disapperared due to densification during heat treatment.

Joule heat is generated by applying an electric filed to a conductive layer located beneath or above the amorphous silicon film, and is used to raise the temperature of the silicon film to crystallization temperature. An electric field was applied to an indium tin oxide (ITO) conductive layer to induce Joule heating in order to carry out the crystallization of amorphous silicon. Polycrystalline silicon was produced within the range of a millisecond. To investigate the kinetics of Joule-heating induced crystallization (JIC) solid phase crystallization was conducted using amorphous silicon films deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition and using tube furnace in nitrogen ambient. Microscopic and macroscopic uniformity of crystallinity of JIC poly-Si was measured to have better uniformity compared to that of poly-Si produced by other methods such as metal induced crystallization and Excimer laser crystallization.

We report high work function Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) films as insertion layer as a function of O2 flow rate between transparent conducting oxides (TCO) and hydrogenated amorphous silicon oxide (a-SiOx:H) layer to improve open circuit voltage (Voc) and fill factor (FF) for high efficiency thin film solar cell. However, amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) solar cells exhibit poor fill factors due to a Schottky barrier like impedance at the interface between a-SiOx:H windows and TCO. The impedance is caused by an increasing mismatch between the work function of TCO and that of p-type a-SiOx:H. In this study, we report on the silicon thin film solar cell by using as insertion layer of O2 reactive AZO films between TCO and p-type a-SiOx:H. Significant efficiency enhancement was demonstrated by using high work-function layers (4.95 eV at O2=2 sccm) for engineering the work function at the key interfaces to raise FF as well as Voc. Therefore, we can be obtained the conversion efficiency of 7 % at 13mA/cm2 of the current density (Jsc) and 63.35 % of FF.

Electrical properties of organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) were simulated by S.co's program. The OLEDs have stable operating parameters, high luminance, and high efficiency in simulation. The AF stands for amorphous fluoropolymer in simulation, and it was used as a hole-injection layer. In the five structure of OLEDs, an AF layer is sandwiched between the hole-transport layer and the ITO layer to increase the external quantum efficiency. By considering organic light-emitting diodes using an optimal energy gap of AF, it could contribute to the improvement of the efficiency of the device in the simulation.

Iron-based amorphous powder attracts increasing attention because of its excellent soft magnetic properties and low iron loss at high frequencies. The development of an insulating layer on the surface of the amorphous soft magnetic powder is important for minimizing the eddy current loss and enhancing the energy efficiency of high-frequency devices by further increasing the electrical resistivity of the cores. In this study, a hybrid insulating coating layer is investigated to compensate for the limitations of monolithic organic or inorganic coating layers. Fe₂O₃ nanoparticles are added to the flexible silicon-based epoxy layer to prevent magnetic dilution; in addition TiO₂ nanoparticles are added to enhance the mechanical durability of the coating layer. In the hybrid coating layer with optimal composition, the decrease in magnetic permeability and saturation magnetization is suppressed.

비대칭 거대 자기임피던스 효과를 보이는 자기장 열처리된 CoFeSiB 비정질 리본에서 자기 바이어스 현상을 MOKE 방법을 이용하여 연구하였다. 열처리 과정에서 리본의 양 표면에 형성된 경자성 결정층이 내부 연자성 비정질 상의 자화특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하기 위해 열처리 후 화학적 에칭에 의해 한쪽 및 양쪽 표면의 결정층을 깎아낸 시편들을 준비하고 각 시편에 대해 비정질 상의 자화곡선을 MOKE 방법으로 측정하였다. 열처리 과정에서 표면에 형성된 경자성층이 내부의 비정질 연자성 상에 바이어스 자기장을 작용하고 있다는 것과 바이어스 자기장의 방향이 경자성층의 자화방향에 반대 방향임을 자기이력곡선의 이동을 통해 확인하였다.

비정질 인듐-갈륨-아연 산화물 박막트랜지스터를 모델링 하여서, 능동층의 구조, 두께, 평형상태의 전자밀도에 대응하는 박막트랜지스터의 특성을 연구하였다. 단일 능동층 박막트랜지스터의 경우, 능동층이 얇을 때 높은 전계효과이동도를 보였다. 문턱전압의 절대값은 능동층의 두께가 20 nm일 때 최저치를 보였으며, 문턱전압이하 기울기는 두께에 대한 의존성을 보이지 않았다. 복층구조 능동층의 경우, 하부의 능동층이 높은 평형상태 전자밀도를 가질 때보다 우수한 스위칭 특성을 보였다. 이 경우에도 능동층의 두께가 얇을 때에 높은 전계효과 이동도를 보였다. 높은 평형상태 전자밀도의 능동층의 두께를 증가시키면 문턱전압은 음의 방향으로 이동하였다. 문턱전압이하 기울기는 능동층의 구조에 대하여 특별한 의존성을 보이지 않았다. 이상과 같은 데이터는 산화물반도체 박막트랜지스터 능동층의 구조, 두께, 도핑비율을 최적화함에 효과적으로 사용될 것으로 기대된다.

본 연구에서는 CoFeB/MgO/CoFeB 구조를 가지는 자기터널접합에서 capping층 재료의 종류와 열처리 시간에 따른 비정질 top CoFeB 자성층의 결정화 상태 및 자기터널접합의 자기적 특성 변화에 대한 연구결과를 비교 분석 하였다. Hcp(Hexagonal close-packed)의 결정구조를 가지는 Ru(002)를 capping층 재료로 사용한 자기터널접합 박막의 경우에는 열처리 이후 Ru과 인접한 부분의 top CoFeB이 bcc-CoFe(110)로 성장하는 반면, TiAl과 ZrAl을 capping층 재료로 사용한 자기터널접합의 경우는 열처리 이후 top CoFeB이 MgO와 epitaxial하게 bcc-CoFe(002)로 결정성장 하였다. 이로 인해 Ru을 사용한 자기터널접합의 터널자기 저항비(46.7%)보다 약 1.5배 높은 터널자기저항비(TiAl: 71.8%, ZrAl: 72.7%)를 나타내었다.
