The feasibility of InSbTe (IST) chalcogenide materials prepared by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) for phase-change memory (PRAM) applications was demonstrated. Films grown below $225^{\circ}C$ exhibited an amorphous structure, and the films grown at $300^{\circ}C$ Cincluded various crystalline phases such as In-Sb-Te, In-Sb, In-Te, and Sb-Te. The composition of the amorphous films grown at $225^{\circ}C$ was dependent on the working pressure. Films grown at $225^{\circ}C$ exhibited a smooth morphology with a root mean square(rms) roughness of less than 1nm, and the step-coverage of the films grown on a trench structure with an aspect ratio of 5:1 was greater than 90%. An increase in deposition time increased the filling rate, while retaining the conformal step-coverage. Films grown at $225^{\circ}C$ for 3h in a working pressure of $13{\times}10^2$ Pa exhibited a reproducible and complete filling in a trench structure.

실리콘 기판 위에서 $TiO_2$와 $Bi_2O_3$의 박막 성장은 반응속도론 측면에서 커다란 차이를 보였지만, $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$(BIT) 박막의 성장은 주로 $TiO_2$ 성장 거동에 의해 지배를 받았다. 그 결과 BIT 박막은 bismuth가 부족한 조성을 가지게 되었다. 박막 내에 부족한 bismuth의 양을 보충해줌으로써 이러한 문제점을 해결하고자 펄스 주입 유기 금속 화학 기상 증착(MOCVD) 방법을 사용하였다. 이러한 펄스 주입법에 의해 bismuth의 양은 증가하였고 또한, 박막의 깊이 방향으로의 조성이 균일해졌고 $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$과 Si사이의 계면이 향상되었다. 게다가, $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ 박막의 결정성은 크게 향상되었고 누설 전류 밀도는 연속 주입법에 비해 1/2에서 1/3정도 낮아졌다. 시계 방향의 C-V 이력 곡선이 관찰되었고 이로 인해 펄스 주입법에 의해 증착된 $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ 박막은 강유전성에 의해 스위칭이 됨을 알 수 있었다.

Insulating $TaN_x$ films were grown by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition using butylimido tris dimethylamido tantalum and $N_2+H_2$ mixed gas as metalorganic source and reactance gas, respectively. Crossbar devices having a $Pt/TaN_x/Pt$ stack were fabricated and their electrical properties were examined. The crossbar devices exhibited temperature-dependent nonlinear I (current) - V (voltage) characteristics in the temperature range of 90-300 K. Various electrical conduction mechanisms were adopted to understand the governing electrical conduction mechanism in the device. Among them, the PooleFrenkel emission model, which uses a bulk-limited conduction mechanism, may successfully fit with the I - V characteristics of the devices with 5- and 18-nm-thick $TaN_x$ films. Values of ~0.4 eV of trap energy and ~20 of dielectric constant were extracted from the fitting. These results can be well explained by the amorphous micro-structure and point defects, such as oxygen substitution ($O_N$) and interstitial nitrogen ($N_i$) in the $TaN_x$ films, which were revealed by transmission electron microscopy and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The nonlinear conduction characteristics of $TaN_x$ film can make this film useful as a selector device for a crossbar array of a resistive switching random access memory or a synaptic device.

Ferroelectric YMnO$_3$ thin films were deposited on $Y_2$O$_3$/si(100) substrates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The YMnO$_3$ thin films annealed in vacuum ambient (100 mTorr) above 75$0^{\circ}C$ show hexagonal structured YMnO$_3$. However, the film annealed in oxygen ambient shows poor crystallinity, and the second phase as $Y_2$O$_3$ and orthorhombic-YMnO$_3$ were shown. The annealing ambient and pressure on the crystallinity of YMnO$_3$ thin films is very important. The C-V characteristics have a hysteresis curve with a clockwise rotation, which indicates ferroelectric polarization switching behavior. When the gate voltage sweeps from +5 to 5 V, the memory window of the Pt/YMnO$_3$/Y$_2$O$_3$/Si gate capacitor annealed at 85$0^{\circ}C$ is 1.8 V. The typical leakage current densities of the films annealed in oxygen and vacuum ambient are about 10$^{-3}$ and 10$^{-7}$ A/cm$^2$ at applied voltage of 5 V.

The difference in lattice parameter and thermal expansion coefficient between GaN and Si which results in many defects into the grown GaN is larger than that between GaN and sapphire. In order to obtain high quality GaN films on Si substrate, it is essential to understand growth characteristics of GaN. In this study, GaN layers were grown on Si(111) substrates by MOCVD at three different GaN growth temperatures ($900^{\circ}C$, $1,000^{\circ}C$ and $1,100^{\circ}C$), using AlN and LT-GaN buffer layers. Using TEM, we carried out the comparative investigation of growth characteristics of GaN by characterizing lattice coherency, crystallinity, orientation relationship and defects formed (transition region, stacking fault, dislocation, etc). The localized region with high defect density was formed due to the lattice mismatch between AlN buffer layer and GaN. As the growth temperature of GaN increases, the defect density and surface roughness of GaN are decreased. In the case of GaN grown at $1,100^{\circ}$, growth thickness is decreased, and columns with out-plane misorientation are formed.

III-nitrides have attracted much attention for optoelectronic device applications whose emission wavelengths ranging from green to ultraviolet due to their wide band gap. However, due to the strong polarization properties of conventional c-plane III-nitrides, the built-in polarization-induced electric field limits the performance of optical devices. Therefore, there has been a renewed interest in the growth of nonpolar III-nitride semiconductors for polarization free heterostructure optoelectronic and electronic devices. However, the crystal and the optical quality of nonpolar/semipolar GaN have been poorer than those of conventional c-plane GaN, resulting in the relative poor optical and electrical properties of light emitting diodes (LEDs). In this presentation, I will discuss the growth and characterization of high quality nonpolar a-plane and semipolar (11-22) GaN and InGaN multiple quantum wells (MQWs) grown on r- and m-plane sapphire substrates, respectively, by using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) without a low temperature GaN buffer layer. Especially, the epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) technique will be also discussed to reduce the dislocation density and enhance the performance of nonpolar and semipolar GaN-based LEDs.

We report on the growth and characterization of InGaN/GaN MQWs on two different types of sapphire substrates and GaN substrates. The InGaN/GaN MQWs are grown by using metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. Our analysis of the satellite peaks in the HRXRD patterns shows, GaN substrates InGaN/GaN MQW compared to sapphire substrates InGaN/GaN MQW, more compressive strain on GaN substrates than on sapphire substrates. However, results of optical investigation of InGaN/GaN MQWs grown on GaN substrates and on sapphire substrates, which have lower Stokes-like shift of PL to GaN substrates compared to sapphire substrates, are shown to the potential fluctuation and the quantum-confined Stark effect induced by the built-in internal field due to spontaneous and straininduced piezoelectric polarizations. The InGaN/GaN MQWs are shown to quantify the Stokes-like shift as a function of x.

Also, the samples were characterized by photoluminescence (PL).

We report on the fabrication and characterization of self- and artificially-controlled ZnO nanostructures have been investigated to establish nanostructure blocks for ZnO-based nanoscale device application. Systematic realization of self- and artificially-controlled ZnO nanostructures on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates was proposed and successfully demonstrated utilizing metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) in addition with a focused ion beam (FIB) technique. Widely well-aligned two-dimensional ZnO nanodot arrays ($4{\sim}10^4$ nanodots of 130-nm diameter and 9-nm height over $150{\sim}150{\mu}m^2$ with a period of 750 nm) have been realized by MOCVD on $SiO_2/Si$ substrates patterned by FIB. A low-magnification FIB nanopatterning mode allowed the periodical nanopatterning of the substrates over a large area in a short processing time. Ga atoms incorporated into the surface areas of FIB-patterned nanoholes during FIB engraving were found to play an important role in the artificial control of ZnO, resulting in the production of ZnO nanodot arrays on the FIB-nanopatterned areas. The nanodots evolved into dot clusters and rods with increasing MOCVD growth time.
