With development of electronic products the demands for miniaturization and weight-lightening have increased until a recent date. Accordingly, The effort to substitute glass substrates was widely made. However, polymer substrates have weak point that substrates were damaged at high temperature. In this paper, we deposited transparent conductive film at low temperature. And we inserted Au thin film between oxide to compensate for deteriorated electrical characteristics. Ga-doped ZnO(GZO) multilayer coatings were deposited on glass substrate by DC sputtering. The optimization of deposition conditions of both AZO and Au layers were performed to obtain better electrical and optical characteristics in advance. We presumed that the properties of multilayer were affected by the deposition process of both GZO and Au layers. The best multilayer coating exhibited the resistivity of $2.72{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}-cm$ and transmittance of 77 %. From these results, we can confirm a possibility of the application as transparent conductive electrodes.

In this study we present the effect of annealing temperatures on the structural, electrical and optical characteristics of Ga-doped ZnO(GZO) films. GZO target have been deposited on corning 7059 glass substrates by DC sputtering. GZO films were annealed at temperatures of 400, 500, $600^{\circ}C$ in air ambient for 20 min. Experimental resulted in as-grown film shows the resistivity of $6{\times}10^{-1}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and transmittance under 85%, whereas the electrical and optical properties of film annealed at $500^{\circ}C$ are enhanced up to $1.9{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and 90%, respectively.

The preparation and characterization of photosemiconductive electrodes of GaAs and of $Fe_2O_3$ doped with MgO or CaO were investigated. The doped $Fe_2O_3$ photosemiconductive electrodes were prepared from thin films sintered at temperatures from 1,100 to $1,450^{\circ}C$, and rapidly quenched in distilled water. The surfaces of the electrodes containing both corundum structure of $Fe_2O_3$ and spinel structure of $Mg_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ or $Ca_xFe_{3-x}O_4$ were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The cathodic and anodic photocurrents on these electrodes indicated a critical doping amount of 5-11 wt. %. The photocurrents were enhanced when GaAs electrodes were treated with methylene violet the anodic photo-currents were temporarial enhanced and changed to the cathodic ptotocurrents after the surface was dryed.

The valence band maximum (VBM) and conduction band minimum (CBM) of Al-doped GaInAsSb alloys substrated on GaSb are calculated by using an analytic approximation based on the tight binding method. The relative positions of the VBM and CBM between Al-GaInASSb and GaSb determine band alignement type, valence band offset (VBO) and conductin band offset (CBO) for the heterojunctions. In this study, aluminium doping is assumed to be substituted in the cation site and limited up to 20 % because it can easily oxidize and degrade materials. It is found that the Al-doped alloys exhibit type-II band alignments over the entire composition range and make the band gaps increase, whereas the VBO and CBO decrease. The decreasing rate of VBO is higher than that of CBO, which implies the Al components play a decisive role in controlling electrons at the interface. The Al-dopled GaInAsSb alloy has a direct band gap induced by $E({\Gamma})$ with a considerable distance from the E(L) and E(X), however, $E({\Gamma})$ approaches to E(L) and E(X) in the high Sb concentration (Sb > 0.7-0.8) which might affect the electron mobility and degrade the optical quality.

Ga-doped ZnO (GZO) thin films for application as transparent conducting oxide film were deposited on the glass substrate by using rf-magnetron sputtering system. The effects of working pressure on electrical and optical characteristics of GZO films were investigated. Regardless of the working pressure, all films were oriented along with the c-axis, perpendicular to the substrate. The electrical resistivity was about $8.68{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm\sim2.18{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and the average transmittance of all films including substrates was over 90% in the visible range. The good transparents and conducting properties were obtained due to controle the working pressure. The obtained results have acceptable for application as transparent conductive electrodes in LCDs and solar cells.

N-polar, Ga-polar, and non-polar GaN was grown by MBE and MOVPE using various substrates and influence of polarity has been investigated. The GaN growth by MOVPE is along cplane (0001), c-plane (0001), and a-plane (11-20) direction on c-plane (0001), a-plane (11-20) and r-plane (1-102) sapphire substrate respectively. The polarity of the film has a strong influence on the morphology and the optical properties of PA-MBE grown As-doped GaN layers. Strong blue emission from As-doped GaN was observed only in the case of N-polarity (000-1) layers, which was attributed to the highest concentration of Ga dangling bonds for this polarity of a GaN surface.

The energy transfer process between GaN and Nd ions as well as Mg codoping effect were investigated in Nd-implanted GaN films. Photoluminescence (PL) and PL excitation spectroscopies were performed on $^4F_{3/2}{\rightarrow}^4I_{9/2}$ Nd ionic level transition. At least three below bandgap traps were identified in the energy transfer process. The number of one particular trap, which is assigned to be an isoelectronic Nd trap, is increased with the Mg-codoping. The emission efficiency with above gap excitation, which emulates the electrical excitation, is further increased in GaN:Mg,Nd.

The impact ionization rate of thethighly-doped AlGaAs/GaAs quantum well structure is calculated, which is an important parameter ot design theinfrared detector APD and the novel neural device. In conjunction with ensemble monte carlo method and quantum mechanical treatment, we analyze the effects of the parameters of quantum well structure on the impact ionization rate. Since the number of the occupied subbands increases while the energy of the subbands decreases as the width of quantum well increases, the impact ionization rate increases in the range of th esmall well width but gradually the increament slows down and is finally saturated. Due to the effect of the energy of the injected electrons into the quantum well and the tunneling through the barrier, the impact ionization rate increases for the range of the small barrier width and decreases for the range of the large barrier width. Thus, there exists a barrier width to maximize the impact ionzation rate for a mole fraction x, and the barrier width moves to the larger vaue as the mole fraction x increases. The impact ionization rate is much more sensitive to the variation of the doping density than that of the other quantum well parameters. We found that there is a limit of the doping density to confine the electronics in the quantum well effectively.
