The control of Ga doping in ZnO nanowires (NWs) by physical vapor deposition has been implemented and characterized. Various Ga-doped ZnO NWs were grown using the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) method, with Au catalyst on c-plane sapphire substrate by hot-walled pulsed laser deposition (HW-PLD), one of the physical vapor deposition methods. The structural, optical and electrical properties of Ga-doped ZnO NWs have been systematically analyzed, by changing Ga concentration in ZnO NWs. We observed stacking faults and different crystalline directions caused by increasing Ga concentration in ZnO NWs, using SEM and HR-TEM. A $D^0X$ peak in the PL spectra of Ga doped ZnO NWs that is sharper than that of pure ZnO NWs has been clearly observed, which indicated the substitution of Ga for Zn. The electrical properties of controlled Ga-doped ZnO NWs have been measured, and show that the conductance of ZnO NWs increased up to 3 wt% Ga doping. However, the conductance of 5 wt% Ga doped ZnO NWs decreased, because the mean free path was decreased, according to the increase of carrier concentration. This control of the structural, optical and electrical properties of ZnO NWs by doping, could provide the possibility of the fabrication of various nanowire based electronic devices, such as nano-FETs, nano-inverters, nano-logic circuits and customized nano-sensors.

In order to reduce operating voltage of the GaN based blue-violet laser diodes, the effect of highly Mg doped GaN layer, which was grown below ohmic contact metals, on contact resistivity as well as operating voltage has been investigated. The addition of the highly Mg doped GaN layer greatly reduced contact resistivity of Pd/Pt/Au ohmic contacts from $5.2 \times {10}^-2 \Omegaㆍ$\textrm{cm}^2$ to 7.5 \times {10}^-4 \Omegaㆍ$\textrm{cm}^2$$. In addition, it also decreased device voltage at 20 mA by more than 3 V. Temperature- dependent sheet resistivity of the highly Mg doped GaN layer suggested that the reduction of the contact resistivity could be attributed to predominant current flow at the interface between the Pd/Pt/Au contacts and p-GaN through a deep level defect band, rather than the valence band.

(F,Ga) co-doped ZnO thin film on glass substrate was fabricated via a simple non-alkoxide sol-gel spin-coating. Contrary to the F single doped ZnO thin film, the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film showed a significant reduce in electrical resistivity after a second post-heat-treatment in reducing environment. The resulting decrease in electrical resistivity with Ga co-doping is considered to be resulted from the increases both carrier density and mobility. The optical transmittance of the (F,Ga) co-doped thin film in the visible range showed higher transmittance with Ga co-doping compared with F single doped ZnO thin film.

This paper, Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) thin films which were deposited on Corning glass substrate using an magnetron sputtering deposition technology and then the post deposition annealing process was conducted for 30 minutes at different temperature of 100, 200, 300, and $400^{\circ}C$, respectively. So as to investigate the properties for the relevant the Concentration and Oxygen Vacancy with Annealing temperature of Ga-doped ZnO thin films by RF Sputtering method. The Carrier concentration is enhanced as annealing temperature decreases, and also the oxygen vacancy concentration is enhanced as annealing temperature decreased. Oxygen vacancy will decrease along with Carrier concentration. This change in Carrier concentration is related to changes in oxygen vacancy concentration. The figure of merit obtained in this study means that Ga-doped ZnO films which annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ have the lowest Carrier concentration and Oxygen vacancy, which have the highest optoelectrical performance that it could be used as a transparent electrode.

In order to elucidate the crystallographic orientation dependence of electrical properties of carbon (C)-doped GaAs epilayers, C incorporation into GaAs epilayers on high-index GaAs substrates with various crystallographic orientations from (100) to (111)A has been performed by a low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using C tetrabromide ($CBt_4$) as a C source. The hole concentration of C-doped GaAs epilayers rapidly decreases with a hump at (311)A with increasing the offset angle. Although the growth temperature and the V/III ratio are varied, the crystallographic orientation dependence of hole concentration show a same trend. The above behaviors indicate that the bonding strength of As sites on a glowing surface plays an important role in the C incorporation into the high-index GaAs substrates.

The fabricatoin sequence of GaAs MIS type diode and its electrical characteristics are presented. Used wafers were undoped GaAS wafer adn Te-doped GaAs wafer. Au and AuGe/Ni was used as schottky contact metal and ohmic contact metal respectively. Oxide layer on GaAs surface was formed by water vapor saturated oxide growth technique and dry oxidation technique.

The epitaxially grown Mg-doped GaN thin film was prepared by MOCVD (Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition) for a SAW(Surface Acoustic Wave) filter. Mg-doped GaN thin film had enough properties for a SAW filter which include crystallinity and morphology. The surface morphology and crystalline of the Mg-doped GaN thin films were characterized using AFM and an X-ray rocking curve. The SAW filter, which was fabricated by lift-off process and frequency response, was measured by HP 8753C network analyzer. Center frequency was 96.687 MHz and SAW velocity was 5801 m/s when wavelength(λ) was 60${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$. Insertion loss was over -10 dB, Q was factor over 200, and side lobe attenuation was over 22 dB which was suitable for use as a SAW filter. Electro-mechanical coupling coefficient (k$^2$) was calculated from the measured data. k$^2$ was from 1 % to 1.44 %. The fabricated SAW filter using Mg-doped GaN/sapphire structure has good qualities as a filter and will be used as a SAW filter for operating RF frequency.

The p-GaN fins doped with the impurity of Zn were grown on n-GaN films to prevent the defects from the lattice mismatch with sapphire substrates by HVPE. For growth of the high quality n-GaN, the optimized conditions were at first deduced from the results of various HCI gas flow rates and growth temperatures. On the basis of these conditions, p-GaN films were grown and investigated of the characteristics. The FWHM of the double crystal rocking curve of n-GaN was decreased and the hexagonal phases on the surface of GaN films were tend to be vivid with the inoement of HCI gas flow rates. Finally the n-type GaN films with FWHM of 648arcsec were obtained at 10cc/min of HCI gas. As the GaN films were grown with the above conditions, Zn was introduced in the form of vapor as a dopant for p-GaN films. But when Zn vaporized at 77$0^{\circ}C$ was doped to the films, the crystallites of Zn were distributed uniformly on the surface of the GaN film due to the over-doped.

We present the temperature and excitation power density dependence of the photoluminescence from carbon-doped GaAs epilayers grown on GaAs (311)A substrate by atmospheric pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The measured temperature dependence of the PL peak energy is well expressed by an empirical formula proposed by Varshni. The thermal quenching mechanism of the intensity of 16 K luminescence peak at 1.480 eV is described with the dominant activation energy of 27$\pm$2 meV. The activation energy shows an evidence that the emission band involves the carbon acceptor in the recombination process.
