Abstract

수평 전기로에서 <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> 다결정을 합성하여 HWE(Hot Wall Epitaxy)방법으로 <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> 단결정 박막을 반절연성 GaAs (100)기판에 성장시켰다. <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> 단결정 박막의 성장 조건은 증발원의 온도 <TEX>$630^{\circ}C$</TEX>, 기판의 온도 <TEX>$420^{\circ}C$</TEX>였고 성장 속도는 <TEX>$0.5\;{\mu}m/hr$</TEX>였다. <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> 단결정 박막의 결정성의 조사에서 10 K에서 광발광(photoluminescence) 스펙트럼이 463.9 nm (2.6726 eV)에서 exciton emission 스펙트럼이 가장 강하게 나타났으며, 또한 이중 결정 X-선 요동 곡선(DCRC)의 반폭치(FWHM)도 127 arcsec로 가장 작아 최적 성장 조건임을 알 수 있었다. Hall 효과는 van der Pauw 방법에 의해 측정되었으며, 온도에 의존하는 운반자 농도와 이동도는 293K에서 각각 <TEX>$9.01{\times}10^{16}/cm^3$</TEX>, <TEX>$219\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$</TEX>였다. <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX>/SI(Semi-Insulated) GaAs(100) 단결정 박막의 광흡수와 광전류 spectra를 293K에서 10K까지 측정하였다. 광흡수 스펙트럼으로부터 band gap <TEX>$E_g(T)$</TEX>는 Varshni 공식에 따라 계산한 결과 <TEX>$2.7116eV-(7.74{\times}10^{-4}eV/K)T^2$</TEX>/(T+434K)이었으며 광전류 스펙트럼으로부터 Hamilton matrix(Hopfield quasicubic mode)법으로 계산한 결과 crystal field splitting <TEX>${\Delta}cr$</TEX>값이 0.1291 eV이며 spin-orbit <TEX>${\Delta}so$</TEX>값은 0.0248 eV임을 확인하였다. 10K일 때 광전류 봉우리들은 n = 1일때 <TEX>$A_1$</TEX>-, <TEX>$B_1$</TEX>-와 <TEX>$C_1$</TEX>-exciton 봉우리임을 알았다. A stoichiometric mixture of evaporating materials for <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> single crystal thin films was prepared from horizontal electric furnace. To obtain the single crystal thin films, <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> mixed crystal was deposited on thoroughly etched semi-insulating GaAs(100) substrate by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperatures were <TEX>$630^{\circ}C$</TEX> and <TEX>$420^{\circ}C$</TEX>, respectively. The crystalline structure of the single crystal thin films was investigated by the photoluminescence and double crystal X-ray diffraction (DCXD). The carrier density and mobility of <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> single crystal thin films measured with Hall effect by van der Pauw method are <TEX>$9.01{\times}10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$</TEX> and <TEX>$219\;cm^2/V{\cdot}s$</TEX> at 293 K, respectively. The temperature dependence of the energy band gap of the <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> obtained from the absorption spectra was well described by the Varshni's relation, <TEX>$E_g(T)=2.7116\;eV-(7.74{\times}10^{-4}\;eV)T^2/(T+434)$</TEX>. The crystal field and the spin-orbit splitting energies for the valence band of the <TEX>$CdIn_2S_4$</TEX> have been estimated to be 0.1291 eV and 0.0248 eV, respectively, by means of the photocurrent spectra and the Hopfield quasi cubic model. These results indicate that the splitting of the <TEX>${\Delta}so$</TEX> definitely exists in the <TEX>${\Gamma}5$</TEX> states of the valence band of the <TEX>$AgInS_2$</TEX>/GaAs epilayer. The three photocurrent peaks observed at 10K areascribed to the <TEX>$A_1$</TEX>-, <TEX>$B_1$</TEX>-, and C1-exciton peaks for n = 1.
