Electron intersubband absorption in Sb $\delta$-doped Si(110)/SiGe multiple quantum well structures is observed. Normally incident light can excite electrons in Si(110) quantum wells, which is not possible for Si(001) or GaAs quantum wells. The influence of Ge composition in SiGe barries is investigated. As the Ge composition in SiGe barriers increases, the absorption strength is decreased and the transition energy is increased. It is verifired by comparing the calculated and experimental results obtained at various incident and polarization angles that normally incident light and parallel incident light are absorbed in different processes.

테라헤르츠 소스로 저온 InGaAs를 대체하기 위해 저온에서 성장한 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 성장 온도에 따른 광학적 photoluminescence (PL)과 time-resolved PL (TRPL) 측정을 이용하여 분석하였다. 또한 Be 도핑 농도에 따른 p형 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 PL과 TRPL 특성을 undoped $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$와 Si-doped $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$ 결과와 비교 분석하였다. 본 연구에 사용한 시료는 분자선 엑피탁시 (molecular beam epitaxy)법으로 GaAs 기판 위에 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$을 다양한 성장온도에서 ${\sim}3.7\;{\mu}m$두께 성장하였다. $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 성장온도는 $400^{\circ}C$ 에서 $460^{\circ}C$까지 변화시키며 성장하였으며, Si과 Be 도핑한 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$ 시료는 약 $420^{\circ}C$에서 성장하였다. 모든 시료의 PL 피크는 ~1450 nm 근처에서 나타나며 단파장 영역에 shoulder 피크가 나타났다. 그러나 가장 낮은 온도 $400^{\circ}C$에서 성장한 시료는 1400 nm에서 1600 nm에 걸쳐 매우 넓은 피크가 측정되었다. PL 세기는 $450^{\circ}C$ 에서 성장한 시료가 가장 강하게 나타났으며, $435^{\circ}C$에서 성장한 시료의 PL 세기가 가장 약하게 나타났다. 방출파장에 따른 PL 소멸곡선을 측정하였으며 double exponential function을 이용하여 운반자 수명시간을 계산하였다. 운반자 수명시간은 빠른 소멸성분 $\tau_1$과 느린 소멸성분 $\tau_2$가 존재하고 빠른 성분 $\tau_1$의 PL 진폭이 약 80%로 느린 성분 $\tau_2$보다 우세하게 나타났다. 각 PL 피크에서의 운반자 수명시간 $\tau_1$은 ~1 ns로 성장온도에 따른 변화는 관찰되지 않았다. 또한 방출파장이 1400 nm에서 1480 nm까지 PL 피크 근처에서 운반자 수명시간은 거의 일정하게 나타났다. Be-doped 시료의 PL 피크는 1236 nm에서 나타나며, Si-doped 시료는 1288 nm, undoped 시료는 1430 nm에서 PL 피크가 측정되었다. PL 피크에서 PL 소멸곡선은 Be-doped 시료가 가장 빨리 감소하였으며, Si-doped 시료가 가장 길게 나타났다. 이러한 결과로부터 $In_{0.64}Al_{0.36}Sb$의 광학적 특성은 성장 온도, dopant type, 도핑 농도에 따라 변화하는 것을 확인하였다.

[ $II-III_2-(S,Se)_4$ ] structured of phosphor has been used at various field because those have high luminescent efficiency and broad emission band. Among these phosphors, the europium doped $BaGa_2S_4$ was prepared by solid-state method and had high potential application due to an emissive property of UV region. Also, the common sulfide phosphors were synthesized by using injurious $H_2S\;or\;CS_2$ gas. However, in this study $BaGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor in addition to excess sulfur was prepared under at 5% $H_2/95%\;N_2$ reduction atmosphere. Thus, this process could be considered as large scale synthesis because of non-harmfulness and simplification. The photoluminescence efficiency of the prepared $BaGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor increased 20% than that of commercial $SrGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor. The prepared $BaGa_2S_4:Eu^{2+}$ could be applied to green phosphor for white LED of three wavelengths.

A state-of-the-arts GaAs power metal semiconductor field effect transistor (MESFET) for 3.3V operation digital hand-held phone at 900 MHz has been developed for the first time, The FET was fabricated using a low-high doped structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The fabricated MESFETs with a gate width of 16 mm and a gate length of 0.8 .mu.m shows a saturated drain current (Idss) of 4.2A and a transconductance (Gm) of around 1700mS at a gate bias of -2.1V, corresponding to 10% Idss. The gate-to-drain breakdown voltage is measured to be 28 V. The rf characteristics of the MESFET tested at a drain bias of 3.3 V and a frequencyof 900 MHz are the output power of 32.3 dBm, the power added efficiency of 68%, and the third-ordr intercept point of 49.5 dBm. The power MESFET developed in this work is expected to be useful as a power amplifying device for digital hand-held phone because the high linear gain can deliver a high power added efficiency in the linear operation region of output power and the high third-order intercept point can reduce the third-order inter modulation.

Al-doped ZnO (AZO) thin films have attracted a lot of attention as a cheap transparent conducting oxide (TCO) material that can replace the expensive Sn-doped In2O3. In particular, AZO thin films are widely used as a window layer of chalcogenide-based thin film solar cells such as Cu(In,Ga)Se2 and Cu2ZnSnS4 (CZTS). Mostly important requirements for the window layer material of the thin film solar cells are the high transparency and the low sheet resistance, because they influence the light absorption by the activelayer and the electron collection from the active layer, respectively. In this study, we prepared the AZO thin films by RF magnetron sputtering using a ZnO/Al2O3 (98：2wt%) ceramic target, and the effect of the sputtering condition such as the working pressure, RF power, and the working distance on the optical, electrical, and crystallographic properties of the AZO thin films was investigated. The AZO thin films with optimized properties were used as a window layer of CZTS thin film solar cells. The CZTS active layers were prepared by the electrochemical deposition and the subsequent sulfurization process, which is also one of the cost-effective synthetic approaches. In addition, the solar cell properties of the CZTS thin film solar cells, such as the photocurrent density-voltage (J-V) characteristics and the external quantum efficiency (EQE) were investigated.

The densification behavior and electrical conductivity of $Ce_{0.8}Gd_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ ceramics were investigated with the strontium gallate concentration ranging from 0 to $5\;mol\%$. Both the sintered density and grain size were found to increase rapidly up to $0.5\;mol\%$ $Sr_2Ga_2O_5$, and then to decrease with further addition. Dense $Ce_{0.8}Gd_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ ceramics with $97\%$ of the theoretical density could be obtained for $0.5\;mol\%$ $Sr_2Ga_2O_5$-added specimen sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$ for 5 h, whereas pure $Ce_{0.8}Gd_{0.2}O_{1.9}$ ceramics needed to be sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ in order to obtain an equivalent theoretical density, Electrical conductivity was measured as a function of dopant content, over the temperature range of $350\;-\;600^{\circ}C$ in air. Total conductivity of $0.5\;mol\%$ $Sr_2Ga_2O_5$-added specimen showed the maximum conductivity of $2.37{\times}10^{-2}{{\Omega}-1}{\cdot}cm^{-1}$ at $500^{\circ}C$, The addition of strontium gallate was found to promote the sintering properties and electrical conductivities of $Gd_2O_3$-doped $CeO_2$.

We have synthesized a $Eu^{2+}-activated\;{(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_4$ yellow phosphor and investigated the development of blue LEDs by combining the phosphor with a InGaN blue LED chip (${\lambda}_{em}$=405 nm). The InGaN-based ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ LED lamp shows two bands at 405 nm and 550 nm. The 405 nm emission band is due to a radiative recombination from a InGaN active layer. This 405 nm emission was used as an optical transition of the ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ phosphor. The 550 nm emission band is ascribed to a radiative recombination of $Eu^{2+}$ impurity ions in the ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_4$ host matrix. In the preparation of UV Yellow LED Lamp with ${(Sr,Ba)}_2SiO_{4}:Eu$ yellow phosphor, the highest luminescence efficiency was obtained at the epoxy-to-yellow phosphor ratio of 1:0.45. At this ratio, the CIE chromaticity was x=0.4097 and y=0.5488.

The thiogallate phosphors which are well known for a long time as phosphor materials for CRT or EL device were reported. Those have high luminescent properties at long-wavelength region. Among those phosphors, the samples with divalent europium doped CaGa2S4 were prepared by a simple process under the reduction atmosphere $(5%\;H_2/\;95%\;N_2)$ without toxic gas such as H2S or CS2. The prepared phosphor shows a higher luminescent efficiency (about 120%) than that of $YAG:Ce^{3+}$ phosphor. Consequently, this phosphor is possible to be applicable to white LED lamp because of the high luminescent efficiency.

Manganese-activated zincgallate (Zn1-xMnxGa2O4) phosphor as a green phosphor was readily prepared by coprecipitation in aqueous basic solution of metal salts. The obtained product converted to amorphous zincgallate even at 300℃, followed by crystallization at 1000 ℃. The pyrolyzed phosphor showed fine particle, then reduction treatment at 900 ℃ changed into homogeneous shape with slight grain growth(particle size less than 0.5 mm). The photoluminescence characteristics of the zincgallates have been investigated as a function of dopant concentrations, reducing atmospheres and temperatures. Under UV excitation the phosphors displayed the highest green emission efficiency at 504 nm when the specimen oxidized at 1000 ℃ was reduced at 900 ℃ in a mild hydrogen atmosphere (97% N2, 3% H2) with a flow rate of 100 ml/min.
