AIGaAs/InGaAs/GaAs high electron mobility transisters(HEMT)소자의 오믹 접합재료로 일반적으로 사용되고 있는 AuGeNi의 접합저항과 열적 안정성을 향상시키기 위한 새로운 접합재료에 대해 연구하였다. 이를 위해 sub/M$_{1}$Au-Ge/M$_{2}$Au의 구조에서 M$_{1}$을 Ni과 Pd, M$_{2}$를 Ni, Ti, Mo로 하였을 경우의 접합 재료에 대한 오믹 접합 특성의 변화를 조사하였다. 또한 일반 열처리로와 램프 히터를 이용한 고속 열처리에 따른 오믹 특성을 조사하였다. M$_{1}$을 Ni에서 Pd으로 대체하였을 경우 접합 저항은 약간 증가하였으며 접합 특성의 개선을 관찰되지 않았다. M$_{2}$를 Ni에서 Ti이나 Mo로 대치하였을 경우, 접합 저항은 감소하였고 열적 안정성과 접합 형상은 현저히 개선되었다. 특히 Ni/Au-Ge/Mo/Au의 접합재료는 급속 열처리에 의해 -0.1Ωmm의 극히 낮은 잡합 저항과 우수한 접합 형상을 갖는 것으로 조사되었다.

Applying the moving photo-carrier grating(MPG) technique and time-of-flight(TOF) measurements, we studied the transport properties of stabilized amorphous selenium typical of the material used in direct conversion X-ray imaging devices. For MPG measurement, we obtained electron and hole mobility and the recombination lifetime of $\alpha-Se$ films with arsenic(As) additions. We found an apparent increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3 % As was added into $\alpha-Se$ film, whereas electron mobility decreased with the addition of As due to the defect density. For TOF measurement, a laser beam with pulse duration of 5 ns and wavelength of 350 nm was illuminated on the surface of $\alpha-Se$ with a thickness of 400 ${\mu}m$. The measured hole and electron transit times were about 8.73 ${\mu}s$ and 229.17 ${\mu}s$, respectively.

We investigated the characteristics of Strained-Si-on-Insulator (sSOI) MOSFETs with 0.7% tensile strain. The sSOI MOSFETs have superior subthreshold swing under 70 mV/dec and output current. Especially, the electron and hole were increased in sSOI MOSFET. The electron and hole mobility in sSOI MOSFET were 286$cm^2/Vs$ and 151$cm^2/Vs$, respectively. The carrier mobility enhancement is due to the subband splitting by 0.7% tensile strain.

The moving photocarrier grating(MPG) technique for the determination of the carrier mobilities and the recombination lifetime in a-Se:As films have been studied. The electron and hole drift mobility and the recombination lifetime of a-Se films with arsenic (As) additions have been obtained. We have found an increase in hole drift mobility and recombination lifetime, especially when 0.3% As is added into a-Se film. However, the electron mobility exhibits no observable change up to 0.5% As addition in a-Se films.0.3% As added a-Se film also exhibits the maximum short circuit current densities per laser intensity of $5.29\times10^{-7}$ A/W.

Metal-organic VPE (MOVPE) epitaxial growth procedure and related device fabrication technique are reported for GaInP-based epitaxial materials and devices. For GaInP/GaInAs two-dimensional electron-gas field-effect transistor (TEGFET), a promising epitaxial stacking structure resulting in enhanced electron mobility is given. In conjunction with this, a new device fabrication technique to improve luminous intensity of GaInP-based LED is also shown.

The quantum effects in the channel of a $\delta$ -doped NMOSFET structures are investigated by solving Schrodinger and Poisson equations self-consistently. According to the scaling of MOSFET structures, electron distributions change by the strong energy quantization. However the presence of a low-doped epitaxial region produces a reduction of the electron effective field for a given charge sheet density and therefore, improves the electron effective mobility. We also focus the quantum-induced threshold voltage shifts, low-field electron effective mobility and gate-to-channel capacitance. The reported results give indications for the fabrication of ultra short MOSFET's.

Electron-electron interactions bear important information on fundamental electronic properties such as electron effective mass, conductivity, and charge mobility. By using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, here we address unusual electron self-energy in graphene induced by the electron-electron interactions, which are distinguished from those of an ordinary Fermi liquid. Our findings provide a new route for two-dimensional electron systems toward device applications.

In order to combine advantages of ZnO thin film transistors (TFTs) with a high on-off ratio and graphene TFTs with extremely high carrier mobility, we present a facile methodology for fabricating ZnO thin film/graphene hybrid two-dimensional TFTs. Hybrid TFTs exhibited ambipolar behavior, an outstanding electron mobility of $329.7{\pm}16.9cm^2/V{\cdot}s$, and a high on-off ratio of $10^5$. The ambipolar behavior of the ZnO/graphene hybrid TFT with high electron mobility could be due to the superimposed density of states involving the donor states in the bandgap of ZnO thin films and the linear dispersion of monolayer graphene. We further established an applicable circuit model for understanding the improvement in carrier mobility of ZnO/graphene hybrid TFTs.

Tin-doped In2O3 (ITO) films were fabricated using a d.c. magnetron reactive sputteirng of a In-10 wt% Sn alloy target in an Ar and O2 gas mixture. To understand the behavior of the carrier mobility in ITO films with O2 partial pressure, the resistivity, carrier concentration and mobility, film density, and intrinsic stress in the films were measured with O2 partial pressure. It was found experimentally that the carrier mobility increased rapidly as the film density increased. In the ITO film with the density close to theoretical one, the mean free path was the same as the columnar diameter. This indicated that the mobility in ITO films was strongly influenced by the crystall size. However, in the case where the film density was smaller than a theoretical density, the mean free paths were also smaller the columnar diameter. It was analyzed that the electron scattering at pores and holes within the crystalline was the major obstacle for electron conduction in ITO films. The measurement of intrinsic stress in ITO films also made it clear that the density of ITO films was controlled by the bombardment of oxygen neutrals on the growing film.

5 MeV proton-irradiation with total dose of $10^{15}/cm^2$ was performed on AlGaN/GaN-on-Si high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) with various gate metals including Ni, TaN, W, and TiN to investigate the degradation characteristics. The positive shift of pinch-off voltage and the reduction of on-current were observed from irradiated HEMTs regardless of a type of gate materials. Hall and transmission line measurements revealed the reduction of carrier mobility and sheet charge concentration due to displacement damage by proton irradiation. The shift of pinch-off voltage was dependent on Schottky barrier heights of gate metals. Gate leakage and capacitance-voltage characteristics did not show any significant degradation demonstrating the superior radiation hardness of Schottky gate contacts on GaN.
