The efficacy improvement of the light emitting diode (LED) was studied for the realization of small-size, low power consumption, and highly sensitive bio-sensor instrument. The performance of the LED with Mg delta-doping at the interface of AlGaN/GaN super-lattice in p type cladding layer was simulated. The device with Mg delta-doping showed improved current, radiative recombination rate, electroluminescence, and light output power compared to the conventional LED structure. Under the bias condition of 5 V, the improved device exhibited 20.8% increase in the light output power. This is attributed to the increment of hole concentration from stable ionization of Mg in p type cladding layer. This result is expected to be used for the miniaturization, power saving, and sensitivity improvement of the bio-sensor system.

The effect of $BaCeO_3$ doping on the critical current density of YBCO film by TFA-MOD method was studied. $BaCeO_3$ doping was made by two method; one is direct addition of $BaCeO_3$ nano-sized powder prepared by citrate process followed by grinding with planetary ball mill for 10 hours. Another is addition of Ba-Ce precursor solution prepared with Ba-acetate and Ce acetate dissolved in TFA to the YBCO-TFA precursor solution. The film was made by standard dip coating and heat treatment process with conversion temperature of $790^{\circ}C$ in 1000 ppm oxygen containing moisturized Ar gas atmosphere. The direct addition of $BaCeO_3$ powder resulted in YBCO film with good epitaxial growth and no evidence of second phase formation. The addition through precursor solution resulted in the increase of critical current density upto 30 at% doping and uniform dispersion of $BaCeO_3$ fine inclusion was confirmed by SEM-EDX.

High performance $Si_{0.8}Ge_{0.2}$ heterostructure metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs) were fabricated using well-controlled delta-doping of boron and $Si_{0.8}Ge_{0.2}$/Si heterostructure epitaxal layers grown by reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition. In this paper, we report 1/f noise characteristics of the SiGe pMOSFETs measured under various bias conditions of the gate and drain voltages changing in linear operation regions. From the noise spectral density, we found that the gate and drain voltage dependence of the noise represented same features, as usually scaled with $f^{-1}$ However, 1/f noise was found to be much lower in the device with boron delta-doped layer, by a factor of $10^{-1}_10^{-2}$ in comparison with the device fabricated without delta-doped layer. 1/f noise property of delta-doped device looks important because the device may replace bipolar transistors most commonly embedded in high-frequency oscillator circuits.

A MESFET device with double $\delta-doped$ channel is designed and investigated by computer simulation. The device with optimized design parameters such as a doping ratio and a spacer thickness, shows superior performance to conventional MESFETs. The effects of the FWHM of $\delta-doped$ layers device characteristics are investigated to account for the thermal process

The misuse of anabolic androgenic steroids is of particular concern in sports and society. Thus, it is of great importance to discriminate endogenous steroids such as testosterone or testosterone prohormones from their chemically identical synthetic copies. In this study, gas chromatography-combustion/isotope ratio mass spectrometric (GC-C/IRMS) method has been developed and validated for discriminating the origin of anabolic androgenic steroids. The method involves the solid-phase extraction, enzymatic hydrolysis with ${\beta}$-glucuronidase, HPLC-fractionation for the cleanup and analysis by GC-C/IRMS. The difference(${\Delta}^{13}C$) of urinary ${\delta}^{13}C$ values between synthetic analogues and endogenous reference compounds (ERC) by GC-C/IRMS was used to elucidate the origin of steroids, and intra- and inter-day precision, specificity and isotope fractionation were evaluated. The present GC-C/IRMS method combined with HPLC cleanup was accurate and reproducible enough to be successfully applied to the test of urine sample from suspected anabolic steroid abusers.

그래핀(graphene)은 모든 탄소 원자가 표면에 존재하는 이차원 결정이기 때문에 다른 고체 표면에 고착될 때 인장 및 압축 변형(tensile & compressive strain)과 전하 도핑(charge doping)에 취약하다고 알려져 있다. 본 연구에서는 산화실리콘(SiO2/Si) 기판 위에 기계적으로 박리된 그래핀에 혼재되어 나타나는 기계적 변형과 전하 도핑 현상을 분석할 수 있는 라만 분광법 기술을 개발하고자 하였다. 대부분의 시료에서 기계적 변형으로 인해 라만 G-band와 2D-band의 진동수(${\omega}$)가 특별한 상관관계(${\Delta}{\omega}2D/{\Delta}{\omega}G$ = 2.0 ${\pm}$ 0.2)를 가진다는 사실을 확인하였다. 전자 친화도가 큰 F4-TCNQ (tetrafluorotetracianoquinodimethane)를 증착하여 화학적으로 p-형 전하 도핑을 유도한 그래핀에서는 기계적 변형과는 분명히 구별되는 상관관계(${\Delta}{\omega}2D/{\Delta}{\omega}G$ = 1.0 ${\pm}$ 0.3)가 관찰되었다. 본 연구는 라만 분광법을 통해 그래핀의 기계적 변형과 전하 도핑 정도를 정량적으로 분리해서 분석할 수 있는 방법을 제시해 준다.

Strontium doped lanthanum manganite (LSM) with perovskite structure for SOFC cathode material shows high electrical conductivity and good chemical stability, whereas the electrical conductivity at intermediate temperature below $800^{\circ}C$ is not sufficient due to low oxygen ion conductivity. The approach to improve electrical conductivity is to make more oxygen vacancies by substituting alkaline earths (such as Ca, Sr and Ba) for La and/or a transition metal (such as Fe, Co and Cu) for Mn. Among various cathode materials, $LaSrMnCuO_3$ has recently been suggested as the potential cathode materials for solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). As for the Cu doping at the B-site, it has been reported that the valence change of Mn ions is occurred by substituting Cu ions and it leads to formation of oxygen vacancies. The electrical conductivity is also affected by doping element at the A-site and the co-doping effect between A-site and B-site should be described. In this study, the $La_{1-x}Sr_xMn_{0.8}Cu_{0.2}O_{3{\pm}{\delta}}$ ($0{\leq}x{\leq}0.4$) systems were synthesized by a combined EDTA-citrate complexing process. The crystal structure, morphology, thermal expansion and electrical conductivity with different Sr contents were studied and their co-doping effects were also investigated.

Reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition(RPCYD) technology has been investigated for the growth of SiGe epitaxial films with two dimensional in-situ doped boron impurities. The two dimensional $\delta$-doped impurities can supply high mobility carriers into the channel of SiGe heterostructure MOSFETs(HMOS). Process parameters including substrate temperature, flow rate of dopant gas, and structure of epitaxial layers presented significant influence on the shape of two dimensional dopant distribution. Weak bonds of germanium hydrides could promote high incorporation efficiency of boron atoms on film surface. Meanwhile the negligible diffusion coefficient in SiGe prohibits the dispersion of boron atoms: that is, very sharp, well defined two-dimensional doping could be obtained within a few atomic layers. Peak concentration and full-width-at-half-maximum of boron profiles in SiGe could be achieved in the range of 10$^{18}$ -10$^{20}$ cm$^{-3}$ and below 5 nm, respectively. These experimental results suggest that the present method is particularly suitable for HMOS devices requiring a high-precision channel for superior performance in terms of operation speed and noise levels to the present conventional CMOS technology.
