In this paper, we emphasize the advantage of thermal annealing treatments for improvement characteristics of film bulk acoustic resonator (FBAR) devices. The FBAR devices were fabricated on multi-layer thin films, namely, Bragg reflectors. Sintering and/or annealing processes were applied in our experiments. The measurements confirm once again a considerable improvement of return loss $(S_{11})$ and quality factor $(Q_{s/p})$. these thermal treatment techniques are really promising for enhancing performance of FBAR resonators in industry fabrication of RF devices.

As Ag does not form my silicide on Si surfaces, Ag wire is a candidate for self-assembled nanowire on the reconstructed and single-domain Si(5 5 12)-2 $\times$ 1. In the present study, various Ag coverages and post-annealing temperatures had been tested to fabricate a Ag nanowire with high aspect ratio. When Ag coverage was less than 0.03 ML and the post-annealing temperature was 500(C, Ag atoms preferentially adsorbed on the tetramer sites resulting in Ag wires with an inter-row spacing of ~5 nm. However, its aspect ratio is relatively small and its height is also not even. On the other hand, the Ag-posited surface completely loses its reconstruction even with the same annealing at 500 $\^{C}$ if the initial coverage exceeds 0.05 ML. But the additional subsequent annealing at 700$\^{C}$ and slow-cooling process recovers the well-ordered Ag chain with relatively high aspect ratio on the same tetramer sites. It can be understood that, in the double step annealing process, the lower temperature annealing is required for cohesion of adsorbed Ag atoms and the higher temperature annealing is for providing Ag atoms to the tetramer sites.

The dependence of the electrical properties in planar MQW - APD & pn, and p - i - n photodiode implanted with oxygen on the annealing emperatures and ion dose has been investigated. The oxygen implantation was performed for inter-device isolation. The leakage current of as-impanted p-i-n photodiode obtained was less than 50 nA. An annelaing temperature dependence study shows an abrupt increase of leakge current at 600.deg.C for all devices under study. This indicates that donor complex centers introduced by the chemical activity of oxygen increase with increasing annelaing temperatures. Furthermore, leakage current was highly correlated with oxygen dose due to th eimplanted related defects.

Solid phase crystallization (SPC) is a simple method in producing a polycrystalline phase by annealing amorphous silicon (a-Si) in a furnace environment. Main motivation of the crystallization technique is to fabricate low temperature polycrystalline silicon thin film transistors (LTPS-TFTs) on a thermally susceptible glass substrate. Studies on SPC have been naturally focused to the low temperature regime. Recently, fabrication of polycrystalline silicon (poly-Si) TFT circuits from a high temperature polycrystalline silicon process on steel foil substrates was reported. Solid phase crystallization of a-Si films proceeds by nucleation and growth. After nucleation polycrystalline phase is propagated via twin mediated growth mechanism. Elliptically shaped grains, therefore, contain intra-granular defects such as micro-twins. Both the intra-granular and the inter-granular defects reflect the crystallinity of SPC poly-Si. Crystallinity and SPC kinetics of high temperatures were compared to those of low temperatures using Raman analysis newly proposed in this study.

We report the growth of $Ba_{0.5}Sr_{0.5}TiO_3$(BST) thin films and their substrate-dependent electrical characteristics. BST thin films were deposited on alumina(non-single crystal), $Al_2O_3$(100) substrates by Nd:YAG Pulsed Laser Deposition(PLD) with a 355nm wavelength at substrate temperature of $700^{\circ}C$ and post-deposition annealing at $750^{\circ}C$ in flowing $O_2$ atmosphere for 1hours. BST materials had been chosen due to high dielectric permittivity and tunability for high frequency applications, To analyze the oxygen partial pressure effects, deposited films at 1, 10, 50, 100, 150, 200, 300 mTorr. The effects of oxygen pressure on structural properties of the deposited films have been investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and atomic force microscope(AFM), respectively. Then we manufactured a inter-digital capacitor(IDC) patterns twenty fingers and $10{\mu}m$ gap, $700{\mu}m$ length and electrical properties were characterized. The results provide a basis for understanding the growth mechanisms and basic structural and electrical properties of BST thin films as required for tunable microwave devices applications such as varactors and tunable filters.
