  • Pure and 0.5, 1, 2, 5, and 10 at% of Mo-doped $Co_3O_4$ yolk-shell spheres were synthesized by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis of droplets containing Co nitrate, ammonium molybdate, and sucrose and their gas sensing characteristics to 5 ppm trimethylamine (TMA), ethanol, p-xylene, toluene, ammonia, carbon monoxide, and benzene were measured at $225-325^{\circ}C$. The sensor using pure $Co_3O_4$ yolk-shell spheres showed the highest response to p-xylene and very low response to TMA at $250^{\circ}C$, while the doping of Mo into $Co_3O_4$ tended to increase the overall responses of gas sensors. In particular, the sensor using 5 at% Mo-doped $Co_3O_4$ yolk-shell spheres exhibited the high response to TMA with low cross-responses to other interfering gases. The high response and selectivity of Mo-doped $Co_3O_4$ yolk-shell spheres to TMA are attributed to the electronic sensitization by higher valent Mo doping and acid-base interaction between TMA and Mo components.

  • Using a ceramic target ZnO:In with In doping concentration of 2%, hetero-junctions of n-ZnO:In/p-Si and p-ZnO:(In, N)/n-Si were fabricated by depositing Indium doped n - type ZnO (ZnO:In or IZO) and Indium-nitrogen co-doped p - type ZnO (ZnO:(In, N)) films on wafers of p-Si (100) and n-Si (100) by DC magnetron sputtering, respectively. These films with the best electrical and optical properties were then obtained. The micro-structural, optical and electrical properties of the n-type and p-type semiconductor thinfilms were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), RBS, UV-vis; four-point probe resistance and room-temperature Hall effect measurements, respectively. Typical rectifying behaviors of p-n junction were observed by the current-voltage (I-V) measurement. It shows fairly good rectifying behavior with the fact that the ideality factor and the saturation current of diode are n=11.5, Is=1.5108.10-7 (A) for n-ZnO:In/p-Si hetero-jucntion; n=10.14, Is=3.2689.10-5 (A) for p-ZnO:(In, N)/n-Si, respectively. These results demonstrated the formation of a diode between n-type thin film and p-Si, as well as between p-type thin film and n-Si..

  • We report on the effects of co-doping with fluorine on properties of ZnO thin films grown by pulsed-laser deposition. The transport characteristics of Ag-F and Li-F codoped ZnO films were determined by Hall-effect measurements at room temperature. Ag-F codoped ZnO films showed n-type semiconducting behaviors. An ambiguous carrier type was observed in Li-F codoped ZnO films grown at a temperature of 500$^{\circ}C$ with the oxygen pressures of 20 and 200 mTorr. The qualities of the codoped ZnO films were studied by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscopy, X-ray photoemission spectroscopy, and photoluminescence.

  • We extend our previous theoretical analysis of electronic and optical properties of p-type quantum well structures based on the two heavy- and light-hole system to include all the three valence bands. These theories are then used to clarify the origin of the normal incidence absorption and photo current at photon wavelengths of 2 - 3 ${\mu}m$, which was observed in addition to the absorption around 8 ${\mu}m$ by a recent experimental investigation with heavily doped p-type GaAs/AlGaAs multi-quantum well (MQW) structures. In the theoretical analysis, the Hartree and exchange-correlation many-body interactions are taken into account within one-particle local density approximation, and it is shown that normal incidence absorption occurs in two wavelength regions over the transition energy range higher than barrier height for p-type GaAs/AlGaAs superlattices with well doping of $2{\times}10^{19}\;cm^{-3}$; one region has broad absorption peaks with coefficients of about 5000 $cm^{-1}$ around 8 ${\mu}m$, and the other has two rather sharp peaks at 2.7 ${\mu}m$ and 3.4 ${\mu}m$ with 1800 $cm^{-1}$ and 1300 $cm^{-1}$, respectively. The result indicates that the theory explains the experimental observation well, as the theoretical and experimental results are in close agreement in general absorption features.

  • Sol-gel법을 이용하여 p-Si 기판위에 yttrium이 도핑된 ZnO (YZO)를 성장하였다. ZnO의 precursor로는 zinc acetate dihydrate를, yttrium의 source로는 yttrium acetate hydrate를 사용하였으며, 용매와 안정제로는 각각 2-methoxy ethanol과 monoethanolamine (MEA)를 사용하였다. yttrium의 doping 농도에 따른 영향을 알아보기 위하여 1~4 at.%로 제작된 YZO sol을 각각 p-type Si 기판에 성장하였으며, 이 후 furnace를 이용하여 500oC에서 1시간 동안 열처리하였다. 성장된 YZO 박막의 표면과 두께를 SEM을 통하여 확인하였으며, XRD를 통한 구조적인 특성을 분석한 결과 모든 박막에서 뚜렷한 c-축 배양성을 갖는 ZnO (0002)피크를 확인하였다. Hall effect를 통하여 YZO는 모두 n-type 특성을 나타낸다는 것을 확인하였으며, 광학적인 특성은 PL을 통해서 분석하였다. n-YZO/p-Si 이종접합의 전류-전압 특성을 분석한 결과 뚜렷한 정류특성을 나타내었다.

  • A buried channel poly-Si TFT (BCTFT) for application of high performance integrated circuits has been proposed and fabricated. BCTFT has unique features, such as the moderately-doped buried channel and counter-doped body region for conductivity modulation, and the fourth terminal entitled back bias for preventing kink effect. The n-type and p-type BCTFT exhibits superior performance to conventional poly-Si TFT in ON-current and field effect mobility due to moderate doping at the buried channel. The OFF-state leakage current is not increased because the carrier drift is suppressed by the p-n junction depletion between the moderately-doped buried channel and the counter-doped body region.

  • For porous silicon layer to be used as active layer in various devices, it is necessary to be formed locally along with a designed pattern on the wafer. However, there is still no suitable masking layer to withstand against the high concentration of HF for a time of some minutes up to some hours during the anodic process effectively. In this work, we investigated the property of selectivity between p$^{+}$ and n layers to form localized porous silicon even without a mask by the difference of the anodic I-V characteristics on the doping level and doping type. The width of the pattern made in the sample was 2mm, and the formed porous silicon layer was observed by SEM to see the morphology on the cross section below the surface. As the results, it was found that the selectivity was reasonable for the pattern size over 100.mu.m.m.

  • By the oxygen plasma exposure to the organic light-emitting diodes, the turn-on voltage decreased from 10.5 to 7 V and luminance increased from 470 to $852\;cd/m^2$. Synchrotron radiation photoelectron spectroscopy results showed that during oxygen plasma exposure, oxygen ions were diffused into organic layer and induced p-type doping effect.
