  • Thick diamond film having $~700\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness was deposited on polycrystalline molybdenum(Mo) substrate using high power (4 kW) microwave plasma-enhanced chemical vapor depostion (MPECVD) system. We could achieve free-standing diamond film via detaching as-deposited diamond film from the substrate by rapid cooling them under vacuum. We investigated the variation of photoconductivity after exposing the film surface to either oxygen or hydrogen plasma. At as-grown state, the growth side (the as-grown surface of the film) showed noticeable photoconcuctivity. The oxygen plasma treatment of this side led to the insulator. After exposing the film surface to hydrogen plasma, on the other hand, we could observe the reappearing of photoconductivity at the growth side. Based on these results, we suggest that the hydrogen plasma treatment may enhance the photoconductivity of free-standing diamond film.

  • In this paper, to anlayze electromagnetic distribution, measure the variation of relative permittivity of Glass-epoxy substrate for Computer-main-board and Tenon substrate for handphone or PCS in the frequency range $100[MHz]{\sim}1[GHz]$, in room temperature. To measure relative permittivity, suggested the Microstripline method. As the frequency increase, the variation of relative permittivity of Glass-epoxy is bigger than Tefoln's. And simulate the electromagnetic distribution on the PCBs in the infinite region applying the open boundary condition with these results by Finite Element Method.

  • We have fabricated a patterned diamond field emitter on a silicon substrate. Fine diamond particles were planted on a silicon wafer using conventional scratch method. A silicon oxide film was deposited on the substrate seeded with diamond powder. An array of holes was patterned on the silicon oxide film using VLSI processing technology. Diamond grains were grown using a microwave plasma-assisted chemical vapor deposition. Because diamond could not grow on the silicon oxide barrier, diamond grains filled only the patterned holes in the silicon oxide film, resulting in an array of diamond tips.

  • Diamond films were deposited on the cemented tungsten carbide WC-Co cutting insert substrates by using both microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition(MWPCVD) and radio frequency plasma chemical vapor deposition (RFPCVD) from $CH_4$$-H_2$$-O_2$ gas mixture. Scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques were used to investigate the microstructure and phase analysis of the materials and Raman spectrometry was used to characterize the quality of the diamond coating. Diamond films deposited using MWPCVD from $CH_4$$-H_2$$-O_2$ gas mixture show a dense, uniform, well faceted and polycrystalline morphology. The compressive stress in the diamond film was estimated to be (1.0∼3.6)$\pm$0.9 GPa. Diamond films which were deposited on the WC-Co cutting insert substrates by RFPCVD from $CH_4$$-H_2$$-O_2$ gas mixture show relatively good adhesion, very uniform, dense and polycrystalline morphology.

  • Nanodiamond films were deposited on Si substrate by introducing a time dependent on/off modulation of $CH_4\;and\;O_2$ flows in a vertical-type microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system. Surface morphology and diamond quality of the film were investigated as a function of the on/off modulation time interval. The diamond nucleation density on the substrate was enhanced under low temperature and low pressure condition. In addition, the diamond nucleation density was enhanced by increasing the on/off modulation time interval. Enhanced diamond quality was noticeable under the condition of a longer on/off modulation time interval. It was suggested that the nanodiamond nuclei formed the cluster formation.

  • Metamorphic InAlAs/InGaAs HEMT are successfully demonstrated, exhibiting several advantages over conventional P-HEMT on GaAs and LM-HEMT on InP substrate. The strain-relaxed metamorphic structure is grown by MBE on the GaAs substrate with the inverse-step graded InAlAs metamorphic buffer. The device with 40% indium content shows the better characteristics than the device with 53% indium content. The fabricated metamorphic HEMT with $0.2\mu\textrm{m}$T-gate and 40% indium content shows the excellent DC and microwave characteristics of $V_{th}-0.65V,{\;}g_{m,max}=620{\;}mS/mm,{\;}f_T120GHZ{\;}and{\;}f_{max}=210GHZ$.

  • We studied field-emission characteristics of CNTs under various pre-treatment with $NH_{3}$ plasma on the substrate. The turn-on electric field is the lowest value and field enhancement factor (${\beta}$) is he highest value in CNTs pre-treated by $NH_3$ plasma (80 W and 5 min). The field-emission property of CNTs grown on the Ta substrate is slightly better than on the W substrate.

  • 4H-SiC planar MESFETs were fabricated using ion-implantation on semi-insulating substrate without recess gate etching. A modified RCA method was used to clean the substrate before each procedure. A thin, thermal oxide layer was grown to passivate the surface and then a thick field oxide was deposited by CVD. The fabricated MESFET showed good contact properties and DC/RF performances. The maximum oscillation frequency of 34 GHz and the cut-off frequency of 9.3 GHz were obtained. The power gain was 10.1 dB and the output power of 1.4 W was obtained for 1 mm-gate length device at 2 GHz. The fabricated MESFETs showed the charge trapping-free characteristics and were characterized by the extracted small-signal equivalent circuit parameters.

  • In this paper, we designed a Ku-band BPF(Band Pass Filter) by microstrip line that most usually used a microwave device design and fabrication. Here a substrate of designed BPF were silicon substrate(${\varepsilon}_r=11.8$), and metal line was copper and silver/copper structure. And a configration of BPF was used hairpin pattern. A center frequency of designed BPF was 10GHz and their FBW(Fractional Band Width) was 20%(2GHz). It presented simulated results obtained for a 10GHz filter which yields an insertion loss of 0.1dB that ripple value related chebyshev reponse. Finallt we tried to make that a 30dB attenuation frequency was 20% of center frequency.

  • A low phase-noise microwave oscillator is presented by a substrate integrated waveguide(SIW) loading a complementary split ring resonator(CSRR) in this paper. The unloaded $Q$-factor of the SIW cavity is increased by loading a complementary split ring resonator(CSRR) and its value exhibits 1960. It is theoretically and experimentally demonstrated that the proposed circuit generates 11.3 dBm of output power at 9.3 GHz and a phase-noise of -127.9 dBc/Hz at 1-MHz offset.
