Even weak van der Waals (vdW) adhesion between two-dimensional solids may perturbtheir various materials properties owing to their low dimensionality. Although the electronic structure of graphene has been predicted to be modified by the vdW interaction with other materials, its optical characterization has not been successful. In this report, we demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy can be utilized to detect a few % decrease in the Fermi velocity ($v_F$) of graphene caused by the vdW interaction with underlying hexagonal boron nitride (hBN). Our study also establishes Raman spectroscopic analysis which enables separation of the effects by the vdW interaction from those by mechanical strain or extra charge carriers. The analysis reveals that spectral features of graphene on hBN are mainly affected by change in vF and mechanical strain, but not by charge doping unlike graphene supported on $SiO_2$ substrates. Graphene on hBN was also found to be less susceptible to thermally induced hole doping.

We analyze the current density - voltage (J - V) curve of a Cu(In,Ga)$Se_2$ (CIGS) thin-film solar cell measured at different irradiation power densities. For the solar-cell sample investigated in this study, the fill factor and power conversion efficiency decreased as the irradiation power density (IPD) increased in the range of 2 to 5 sun. Characteristic parameters of solar cell including the series resistance ($r_s$), the shunt resistance ($r_{sh}$), the photocurrent density ($J_L$), the saturation current density ($J_s$) of an ideal diode, and the coefficient ($C_s$) of the diode current due to electron-hole recombination via ionized traps at the p-n interface are determined from a theoretical fit to the experimental data of the J - V curve using a two-diode model. As IPD increased, both $r_s$ and $r_{sh}$ decreased, but $C_s$ increased.

The fabricated the nanostructural patterns on the surface of SiN antireflection layer of polycrystalline Si solar cell using anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) masks in an inductively coupled plasma(ICP) etching process. The AAO nanopattern mask has the hole size of about 70~75nm and lattice constant of 100~120nm. The transferred nano-patterns were observed by the scanning electron microscope (SEM). The voltage of patterned Si solar cell enhanced.

Polyazomethine type conjugated copolymers containing phenanthridine units, poly(PZ-PTI), were synthesized by Schiff-base reaction. This new conjugated copolymer exhibited improved solubility in common organic solvents due to the presence of alkyl side chains as well as phenanthridine groups. Double layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/$Alq_3$/Mg) light emitting diode (LED) exhibited enhanced EL emission and efficiency compared to that of single layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/Mg) LED. With increasing the thickness of $Alq_3$ layer in double layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/$Alq_3$/Mg) LED the emission peak gradually shifted to the single layer (ITO/$Alq_3$/Mg) LED, confirming good hole transporting behaviour of the synthesized conjugated copolymer.

Based on first-principles calculations, we study the magnetic properties of Co, Ni, Fe, V, and Mn impurities in ZnO. The stabilities of the ferromagnetic state and the magnetic moment of each impurity largely depend on the amount of doped electron or hole. For lightly doped n-type ZnO, it is found that the doping of Ni ions is the most effective for inducing ferromagnetism, while Fe ions show the most stable ferromagnetic couplings for heavily doped n-type samples. The characteristics of the magnetic interactions of Co ions are similar with those of Fe ions, but Co ions require much larger amount of doped electron than Fe ions to show the ferromagnetic couplings. The ferromagnetic coupling between Mn and V ions is unstable in n-type conditions.

In recent years, spins of confined carriers in quantum dots are promising candidates for the logical units in quantum computers. In many concepts developed so far, the individual spin q-bits are being manipulated by magnetic fields, which is difficult to achieve. In the current research the recent developments of spin based quantum computing has been reviewed. Then, Single-hole spin in a molecular quantum dots with less energy and more speed has been electrically manipulated and the results have been compared with the magnetic manipulating of the spin.

Size dependent emission properties and the interband optical transition energies in group-III nitride based quantum dots are investigated taking into account the geometrical confinement. Exciton binding energy and the optical transition energy in $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN and $Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN quantum dots are studied. The largest intersubband transition energies of electron and heavy hole with the consideration of geometrical confinement are brought out. The interband optical transition energies in the quantum dots are studied. The exciton oscillator strength as a function of dot radius in the quantum dots is computed. The interband optical absorption coefficients in GaInN/GaN and AlInN/AlN quantum dots, for the constant radius, are investigated. The result shows that the largest intersubband energy of 41% (10%) enhancement has been observed when the size of the dot radius is reduced from $50{\AA}$ to $25{\AA}$ of $Ga_{0.9}In_{0.1}N$/GaN ($Al_{0.395}In_{0.605}N$/AlN) quantum dot.

$SiO_2$ via-hole etching with a high aspect ratio is a key process in fabricating ULSI devices; however, accumulated charge during plasma etching can cause etching stop, micro-loading effects, and charge build-up damage. To alleviate this concern, charge-up damage sensor was fabricated for the ultimate goal of real-time monitoring of accumulated charge. As an effort to reach the ultimate goal, fabricated sensor was used for electrical potential measurements of via holes between two poly-Si electrodes and roughly characterized under various plasma conditions using statistical design of experiment (DOE). The successful identification of potential difference under various plasma conditions not only supports the evidence of potential charge-up damage, but also leads the direction of future study.

This paper describes our high-density near-field optical recording using bent cantilever fiber probes installed in an atomic force microscope. We conducted a near-field reading of nano-scale hole patterns with a 100 nm spatial resolution and a 25 ${\mu}m$/s scan speed; this implies a capability of a data reading density of 60 Gb/$in^2$ with a 0.25 kbps data transfer rate. In addition, we investigated re-writable near-field recording on photochromic diarylethene films. We successfully recorded erasable memory bits having a minimum width of 600 nm in a writing time as short as 30ms. We found that using a cantilever probe simplifies the setup and operation of the near-field optical recording system and may offer multifunctional recording capabilities.
