YBCO step-edge Josephson junction were fabricated on sapphire substrates. The steps were formed on R-plane sapphire substrates by using Ar ion milling with PR masks. The step angle was controlled in the wide range from 25$^{\circ}$ to 50$^{\circ}$ by adjusting both the Ar ion incident angle and the photoresist mask rotation angle relative to the incident Ar ion beam. CeO$_2$ buffer layer and in-situ YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) thin films was deposited on the stepped R-plane sapphire substrates by pulsed laser deposition method. The YBCO film thickness was varied to obtain the ratio of film thickness to step height in the range from 0.5 to 1. The step edge junction exhibited RSJ-like behaviors with I$_cR_n$ product of 100 ${\sim}$ 300 ${\mu}$V, critical current density of 10$^3$ ${\sim}$ 10$^5$ A/ cm$^2$ at 77 K.

A hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) method was performed to prepare the GaN thick-films on c-plane sapphire substrates. The full-width at half maximum of double crystal X-ray rocking curve from 350${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick GaN was 576 arcsecond. The photo- luminescence spectrum measured (at room temperature) show the narrow bound exciton(I$_2$) line and weak donor-acceptor pair recombination peak, however, there was not observed deep donor-acceptor pare recombination indicate the GaN crystals prepared in this study are of high purity and high crystalline quality.

Gallium oxide (Ga₂O₃) thin films were grown on c-, a-, m-, r-plane sapphire substrates using a mist chemical vapor deposition system. Various growth temperature range of 400~600℃ was applied for Ga₂O₃ thin film deposition. Then, several structural properties were characterized such as film thickness, crystal phase, lattice orientation, surface roughness, and optical bandgap. Under the certain growth temperature of 500℃, all grown Ga₂O₃ featured rhombohedral crystal structures and well-aligned preferred orientation to sapphire substrate. The films grown on c-and r-plane sapphire substrates, showed low surface roughness and large optical bandgap compared to those on a-and m-plane substrates. Therefore, various sapphire orientation can be potentially applicable for future Ga₂O₃-based electronics applications.

Compositionally graded AlGaN epilayer was grown by HVPE (hydride vapor phase epitaxy) on (0001) c-plane sapphire substrate. During the growth of graded AlGaN epilayer, the temperatures of source and the growth zone were set at $950^{\circ}C$ and $1145^{\circ}C$, respectively. The growth rate of graded AlGaN epilayer was about 100 nm/hour. The changing of Al contentes was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). From the result of atomic force microscope (AFM), the average of roughness in 2 inch substrate of graded AlGaN epilayer was a few nanometers scale. X-ray diffraction (XRD) with the result that the AlGaN (002) peak ($Al_{0.74}Ga_{0.26}N$) and AlN (002) peak were appeared. It seems that the graded AlGaN epilayer was successfully grown by the HVPE method. From these results, we expect to use of the graded AlGaN epilayer grown by HVPE for the application of electron and optical devices.

The crystal structure and properties of YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$(YBCO) and CeO$_2$ thin films deposited on r-plane (1(equation omitted)02) sapphire substrate by pulsed- laser deposition(PLD) have been investigated. C-axis oriented epitaxial YBCO thin films with critical temperature (Tc) of 88 K were routinely grown on (200) oriented CeO$_2$ buffer layers with thickness in the range between 20 to 80 nm. When the thickness of the (200)oriented CeO$_2$ buffer layer increases over than 80 nm, the superconducting properties of YBCO thin films on that were deteriorated. The decrease in Tc of YBCO thin films was explained by the microcrack formation in CeO$_2$ buffer layer. These results indicate that the thickness of the (200) oriented CeO$_2$ buffer layer is critical to the epitaxial YBCO thin nim growth on r-plane (1(equation omitted)02) sapphire substrate.e.

The structural and morphological properties of planar, nonpolar (11-20) a-plane GaN layers grown by hydride vapor phase epitaxy on (1-102) r-plan sapphire substrates are characterized. We report on the effect of low temperature ($500/550/600/660^{\circ}C$) AIN buffer layers on the structural properties of HVPE grown a-GaN kayers. and for the comparison, low temperature GaN and InGaN buffer layers are also tried for the growth of a-plane GaN layers. The structural geometry of a-GaN layers is severely affected on the growth condition of low temperature buffer layers. The most planar a-GaN could be obtained with $GaCl_3$ pretreatment at the growth temperature of $820^{\circ}C$.

높은 효율의 InGaN/GaN 전광소자는 현대 조명 산업에 필수적인 역할을 하고 있다. 그러나 전광소자의 효율을 높이는 데에는 여러가지 한계들이 있다. 예를 들면 높은 전류에서의 효율저하, GaN 의 전위결함에 의한 비발광 재결합의 발생 등이 있다. 이러한 한계를 극복하고자 InGaN/GaN 전광소자의 효율을 높이기 위해 사파이어 기판의 표면을 거칠게 바꾸는 방법, 무분극 전광소자, 표면 플라즈몬 등 여러가지 많은 방법들이 개발되고 있다. c-plane InGaN/GaN LED 기반의 표면 플라즈몬 실험은 많은 연구가 수행되고 있으나, m-plane InGaN/GaN LED 기반의 표면 플라즈몬은 아직 연구가 진행되지 않았다. 본 실험의 목적은 표면 플라즈몬 효과를 이용하여 semi-polar InGaN/GaN LED의 광효율을 개선하는 것이다. 유기금속화학 증착 장비로 m-plane sapphire위에 $6{\mu}m$ 의 GaN 버퍼층을 증착하고 표면의 평탄화를 위해 $2{\mu}m$의 n-GaN을 증착하였다. 그 위에 3개의 다중양자우물 층을 증착하였고, 10 nm의 도핑이 되지않은 GaN를 증착하였다. 표면 플라즈몬 현상을 일으키기 위해 Ag박막을 10, 15, 20 nm 증착하여 급속 열처리 방법으로 $300^{\circ}C$에서 20분 열처리 하였다. 형성된 나노입자를 측정하기 위해 주사전자현미경으로 표면을 분석하였다. 표면플라즈몬에 의한 InGaN/GaN 광 세기를 측정하고자 여기 파장이 385 nm인 photoluminescence (PL) 를 사용하였다. 또한 내부양자효과의 증가를 확인하기 위해 PL을 이용하여 온도를 10~300 K까지 20 K 간격으로 광세기를 측정하였다. 향상된 내부 양자효과가 표면 플라즈몬에 의한 것임을 증명하기 위해 time-resolved PL을 이용하여 운반자 수명시간을 구하였다.

CeO$_2$ buffer layers and in-situ YSa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition method on R-plane sapphire substrates. Superconducting properties and surface morphologies of YBCO thin films exhibit strong dependence on the crystallinity of CeO$_2$ buffer layer. The best a-axis oriented CeO$_2$ buffer layers could be grown at 800 $^{\circ}C$ of deposition temperature, 1.5 J/ cm$^2$ of laser energy density and 50 mTorr of oxygen pressure. The YBCO thin films on the a-axis CeO$_2$ buffer layer have Tc (R=0) ${\ge}$ 89.5 K, ${\delta}$Tc ${\sim}$ 0.5 K, and Jc ${\ge}$ 3.2 ${\times}$ 10$^6$ A/ cm$^2$ at 77 K.

Step-edge Josephson junctions (SEJ) have been fabricated on sapphire substrates with in situ deposited films of CeO$_2$ buffer layer and YBa$_2$Cu$_3$O$_{7}$ films on the low angle steps. Direct coupled SQUID magnetometers with the SEJ were formed on 1 cm X 1 cm R-plane sapphire substrates. Typical 5-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$-wide Josephson junctions have R$_{N}$ of 3 Ω and I$_{c}$ of 50 $mutextrm{A}$ at 77 K. The direct coupled SQUID magnetometers were designed to have pickup coils of 50-${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$-wide 16 parallel loops on the 1 cm X 1 cm substrates with outer dimension of 8.8 mm X 8.8 mm. The SEJ SQUID magnetometers exhibit relatively low 1/f noise even with dc bias control, and could be stably controlled by flux-locked loops in the magnetically disturbed environment. Field noise of the do SQUID was measured to be 200∼300 fT/Hz$^{1}$2/in the white noise region and about 2 pT/Hz$^{1}$2/ at 1 Hz when measured with dc bias method.hod.d.
