  • In this paper are presented a newly proposed 3D monte carlo (MC) damage model for the dynamic simulation in order to more accurately and consistently predict the implant-induced point defect distributions of the various ions in crystalline silicon. This model was applied to phosphorus implants for the ULSI CMOS technology developement. In additon, a newly applied 3D-trajectory split method has been implemented into our model to reduce the statistical fluctuations of the implanted impurity and the defect profiles in the relatively large implanted area as compared to 1D or 2D simulations. Also, an empirical electronic energy loss model is proposed for phosphorus and silicon implants. The 3D formations of the amorphous region and the ultra-shallow junction around the implanted region could be predicted by using our model, TRICSI(Transport ions into crystal-silicon).

  • High-Quality 1-Dimensional InN single crystalline have been grown by Halide Vapor-Phase Epitaxy on the Au catalyst coated Si substrate using the vapor-liquid-solid growth mechanism. We have been grown 1-dimension InN nanowires having controlled the growth conditions for substrate temperature and gases flow rate. The grown InN nanowire of characteristics for morphologies, crystal structure, and element analysis were carried out by SEM, HR-TEM, and EDS respectively. And the defects of InN crystalline were analyzed by indexing of selective area diffraction pattern with attached HR-TEM. We have successfully obtained the defect-free 1-dimensional InN single crystalline nanowire at the atmosphere pressure.

  • Large-sized flat-panel displays are widely used for PC monitors and TV displays. In this paper, frequency domain pre-filter algorithms are presented for detection of defects in large-sized Thin Film Transistor-Liquid Crystal Display(TFT-LCD) panel surfaces. Frequency analysis with 1-D, 2-D FFT methods for extract the periodic patterns of lattice structures in TFT-LCD is performed. To remove this patterns, frequency domain band-stop filters were used for eliminating specific frequency components. In order to acquire only defected images, 2-D inverse FFT methods to inverse transform of frequency domain images were used.

  • This paper presents a newly enhanced damage model in Monte Carlo (MC) simulation for the accurate prediction of 3-Dimensional (3D) as-implanted impurity and point defect profiles induced by ion implantation in (100) crystal silicon. An empirical electronic energy loss model for B, BF2, As, P and Si self implant over the wide energy range has been proposed for the ULSI device technology and development. Our model shows very good agreement with the SIMS data over the wide energy range. In the damage accumulation, we considered the self-annealing effects by introducing our proposed non-linear recomvination probability function of each point defect for the computational efficiency. For the damage profiles, we compared the published RBS/channeling data with our results of phosphorus implants. Our damage model shows very reasonable agreement with the experiments for phosphorus implants.

  • The details of the electronic structure of the perfect crystal provides a critically important foundation for understanding the various defect states in uranium dioxide. In order to understand the local defect and impurity mechanism, the calculation of electronic structure of UO$_2$ in the one-electron approximation was carried out, using a semi-empirical tight-binding formalism(LCAO) with and without f-orbitals. The energy band, local and total density of states for both spin states are calculated from the spectral representation of Green’s function. The bonding mechanism in Perfect lattice of UO$_2$ is discussed based upon the calculations of band structure, local and total density of states.

  • An automated circuit repair system was developed for enhancing the yield of nondefective liquid crystal panels, focusing on the resist patterns on the circuit material layer of thin-film transistor (TFT) substrates prior to etching. The developed system has an advantage over the parallel conventional system: In the former, the repair conditions depend on the type of resist whereas in the latter, the repair parameters must be fine-tuned for each circuit material. The developed system consists of a resist pattern defect inspection system and a pattern repair system for short and open defects. The repair system performs fine corrections of abnormal areas of the resist pattern. The open-repair system is equipped with a syringe to dispense resist. To maintain a stable resist diameter, a thermal insulator was installed in the syringe system. As a result, the diameter of the dispensed resist became much more stable than when no thermal insulator was used. The resist diameter was kept within the target of $400{\pm}100{\mu}m$. Furthermore, a prototype system was constructed, and using a dummy pattern, it was confirmed that the system worked automatically and correctly.

  • A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for AgGaS₂ single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, AgGaS₂ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were 590℃ and 440℃, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the AgGaS₂ obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, E/sub g/(T) = 2.7284 eV - (8.695×10/sup -4/ eV/K)T²/(T + 332 K). After the as-grown AgGaS₂ single crystal thin films was annealed in Ag-, S-, and Ga-atmospheres, the origin of point defects of AgGaS₂ single crystal thin films has been investigated by the photoluminescence (PL) at 10 K. The native defects of V/sub Ag/, V/sub s/, Ag/sub int/, and S/sub int/ obtained by PL measurements were classified as a donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the Ag-atmosphere converted AgGaS₂ single crystal thin films to an optical n-type. Also, we confirmed that Ga in AgGaS₂/GaAs crystal thin films did not form the native defects because Ga in AgGaS₂ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.

  • A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for $CuGaSe_2$ single crystal am films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. Using extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns for the polycrystal $CuGaSe_2$, it was found tetragonal structure whose lattice constant $a_0$ and $c_0$ were $5.615\;{\AA}\;and\;11.025\;{\AA}$, respectively. To obtain the single crystal thin films, $CuGaSe_2$ mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the hot wall epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were $610^{\circ}C$ and $450^{\circ}C$, respectively, The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of $CuGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are $9.24{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$ and $295\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$ at 293 K, respectively.

The native defects of $V_{CU}$, $V_{Se}$, $CU_{int}$, and $Se_{int}$, obtained by PL measurements were classified as a donors or accepters type. And we concluded that the heat-treatment in the Cu-atmosphere converted $CuGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films to an optical n-type. Also, we confirmed that Ga in $CuGaSe_2/GaAs$ did not form the native defects because Ga in $CuGaSe_2$ single crystal thin films existed in the form of stable bonds.
