Abstract:
Provided is a self-oscillation communication module in which an optical device, a solar battery, and a radio frequency (RF) device are monolithic-integrated. When an active layer of the optical device contains In(Ga)As quantum dots, the optical device can emit light ranging from 800 to 1600 nm and transmit signals at a high speed of 20 Gbps or higher. Since a light absorption layer of the solar battery is formed of InGa(Al)P which has a higher bandgap than silicon and high visible light absorptivity, the solar battery can generate a large current even with a very small light reception area. Therefore, the self-oscillation communication module can always operate using the solar battery without an external power source even in polar regions and deserts and can perform optical communication or high-frequency wireless communication with a wide frequency range.

Abstract:
A method of sensing the concentration of a doped impurity on a semiconductor in real time and a method of sensing the change of its growth rate dependent on time among the changes of the growing conditions due to doping by using a real time analysis apparatus in growing a heterostructured semiconductor by a MOCVD method. A reflecting signal during the growth by means of a real time analysis apparatus has a periodic property, an amplitude change of a reflecting signal is dependent on an absorption coefficient when an absorption exists on an epitaxial layer, an impurity concentration can be obtained by using the relation of an absorption coefficient and an impurity concentration. In addition, if each peak is independently analyzed, the respective growth rate dependent on time are measured individually, so that the reduced growth rate dependent on time of the growth rate is sensed in a carbon doped AlAs layer.
