The most Important research topic in the development of ZnO LED and LD is the production of p-type ZnO thin film that has minimal stress with outstanding stoichiometric ratio. In this study, Phosphorus diffused into the undoped ZnO thin films using the ampoule-tube method for the production of p-type znO thin films. The undoped ZnO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering system on $GaAs_{0.6}P_{0.4}$/GaP and Si wafers. 4N Phosphorus (P) was diffused into the undoped ZnO thin films in ampoule-tube which was performed and $630^{\circ}C$ during 3hr. We found the diffusion condition of the conductive ZnO films which had p-type properties with the highest mobility of above 532 $cm^2$/Vs compared with other studies PL spectra measured at 10K for the purpose of analyzing optical properties of p-type ZnO thin film showed strong PL intensity in the UV emission band around 365nm ~ 415nm and 365nm ~ 385nm.

The p-type ZnO thin film, fabricated by means of the ampoule-tube method, was used to make the ZnO p-n junction, and its characteristics was analyzed. The ampoule-tube method was used to make the p-type ZnO based on the As diffusion, and the hall measurement was used to confirm that the p-type is formed. the current-voltage characteristics of the ZnO p-n junction were measured to confirm the rectification characteristics of a typical p-n junction and the low leakage voltage characteristics. Using the ampoule-tube to fabricate the p-type ZnO will provide a very useful technology for producing the UV ZnO LED and ZnO-based devices.

Our Zn diffusion into n-type $GaAs_{0.60}P_{0.40}$ used ampoule-tube method to increase IV. N-type epitaxial wafers were preferred by $H_2SO_4$-based pre-treatment. $SiO_2$ thin film was deposited by PECVD for some wafers. Diffusion times and diffusion temperatures respectability are 1, 2, 3 hr and 775, $805^{\circ}C$. LED chips were fabricated by the diffused wafers at Fab. The peak wavelength of all chips showed about 625~650 nm and red color. The highest IV is about 270 mcd at the diffusion condition of $775^{\circ}C$, 3h for the wafers which didn't deposit $SiO_2$ thin films. Also, the longer diffusion time is the higher IV for the wafers which deposit $SiO_2$ thin films.

To investigate the ZnO thin films which is interested in the next generation of short wavelength LEDs and Lasers, our ZnO thin films were deposited by RF sputtering system. Phosphorus (P) and arsenic (As) were diffused into about 2.1${\mu}m$ ZnO thin films sputtered by RF magnetron sputtering system mn ampoule tube which was below $5\times10^{-7}$ Torr. The dopant sources of phosphorus and arsenic were $Zn_3P_2$ and $ZnAs_2$. Those diffusion was perform at 500, 600, and 700$^{\circ}C$ during 3hr. We find the condition of p-type ZnO whose diffusion condition is 700$^{\circ}C$, 3hr Our p-type ZnO thin film has not only very high carrier concentration of above $10^{19}/cm^3$ but also low resistivity of $5\times10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$.

To investigate the ZnO thin films which are interested in the next generation of short wavelength LEDs and Lasers, the ZnO thin films were deposited by RF magnetron sputtering system. Al sputtering process of ZnO thin films substrate temperature, work pressure respectively is $100^{\circ}C$ and 15 mTorr, and the purity of target is ZnO 5N. The ZnO thin films were in-situ annealed at $600^{\circ}C$, $800^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ atmosphere. Phosphorus (P) and arsenic (As) were diffused into ZnO thin films sputtered by RF magnetron sputtering system in ampoule tube which was below $5{\times}10^{-7}$ Torr. The dopant sources of phosphorus and arsenic were $Zn_3P_2$ and $ZnAS_2$. Those diffusion was perform at $650^{\circ}C$ during 3hr. We confirmed that p-type properties of ZnO thin films were concerned with dopant sources rather than diffusion temperature.
