The electrical and physical characteristics of MgO and Pt thin-films on Si wafers deposited by r.f magnetron sputtering, were analyzed with annealing condition(100$0^{\circ}C$, 120 min) by four point probe, SEM and XRD. Until annealing temperature of 100$0^{\circ}C$, MgO had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to SiO$_2$ and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin-films and the resistivity of Pt thin-films was improved. The thermal characteristics of Pt micro-heater were analyed with Pt-RTD integrated on the same substrate, In the analysis of properties of Pt-RTD, TCR value had 3927 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ and liner in the temperature range of 25~40$0^{\circ}C$ temperature of Pt micro-heater had up to 40$0^{\circ}C$ with 1.5 watts of the heating power.

Platinum thin films were deposited on $SiO_{2}/Si$ and $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrates by DC magnetron sputtering for RTD (resistance thermometer devices) temperature sensors. The resistivity and sheet resistivity of these films were decreased with increasing the annealing temperature and time. We made Pt resistance pattern on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate by lift-off method and fabricated Pt-RTD temperature sensors by using W-wire, silver epoxy and SOG(spin-on-glass). In the temperature range of $25{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, we investigated TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance) and resistance ratio of Pt-RTD temperature sensors. TCR values were increased with increasing the annealing temperature, time and the thickness of Pt thin films. Resistance values were varied linearly within the range of measurement temperature. At annealing temperature of $1000^{\circ}C$, time of 240min and thin film thickness of $1{\mu}m$, we obtained TCR value of $3825ppm/^{\circ}C$ close to the Pt bulk value.

This paper describes on the fabrication and characteristics of hot-film type micro-flowsensors integrated with Pt-RTD\`s and micro-heater on the Si substrate, in which MgO thin-films were used as medium layer in order to improve adhesion of Pt thin-films to SiO$_2$ layer The MgO layer improved adhesion of Pt thin-films to SiO$_2$` layer without any chemical reactions to Pt thin-films under high as gas flow rate and its conductivity increased due to increase of heat-loss from sensor to external. Output voltage was 82 mV at N2 flow rate of 2000 sccm/min, heating power of 1.2W. The respons time was about 100 msec when input flow was step-input

Platinum-Cobalt alloy thin films were deposited on Al$_2$O$_3$ substrate by r.f. cosputtering for RTD temperature sensors. We made Pt-Co alloy resistance patterns on the Al$_2$O$_3$ substrate by lift-off method and investigated the physical and electrical characteristics of these films under various conditions (the input power, working vacuum, annealing temperature, thickness of thin films) and also after annealing these films. At input power of Pt : 4.4 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$, Co : 6.91 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$, working vacuum on and annealing conditions of 1000 $^{\circ}C$ and 60 min, the resistivity and the sheet resistive thin films were 15 ${\mu}$$\Omega$$.$cm and 0.5 $\Omega$/$\square$, respectively. The TCR value of Pt-Co a films was measured with various thickness of thin films and annealing temperature. T TCR value is gained under condition 3000${\AA}$ of thin films thickness and 1000$^{\circ}C$ of temperature. These results indicate that Pt-Co alloy thin films have potentiality for the wide temperature ranges.

This paper describes on the fabrication and characteristics of hot-film type micro-flowsensors integrated with Pt-RTD(resistance thermometer device) and micro-heater on the SOI(Si-on-insulator) membrane and trench structures, in which MGO thin-film was used as medium layer in order to improve adhesion of Pt thin-film to SiO$_2$ layer. Output voltages increased due to increase of heat-loss from sensor to external. The output voltage was 250 nV at N$_2$ flow rate of 2000 sccm/min, heating power of 0.3 W. The response time($\tau$:63%) was about 42 msec when input flow was step-input. The results indicated that micro-flowsensors with the SOI membrane and trench structures have properties of a high-resolution and ow consume power.

The physical and electrical characteristics of MgO and Pt thin-films on it deposited by reactive sputtering and rf magnetron sputtering respectively were analyzed with annealing temperature and time by four point probe SEM and XRD. Under annealing conditions of 100$0^{\circ}C$ and 2 hr, MgO thin-film had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to SiO$_2$and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin-film and the sheet resistivity and the resistivity of Pt thin-film deposited on it were 0.1288 Ω/ and 12.88 $\mu$$\Omega$.cm respectively. We made Pt resistance pattern on SiO$_2$/Si substrate by life-off method and fabricated Pt thin-film type microheater for thermal microsensors by Pt-wire Pt-paste and SOG(spin-on-glass). In the temperature range of 25~40$0^{\circ}C$ we estimated TCR(temperature coefficient of resistance) and resistance ratio of thin-film type Pt-RTD(resistance thermometer device). We obtained TCR value of 3927 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ close to the bulk Pt value. Resistance values were varied linearly within the range of the measurement temperature. The thermal characteristics of fabricated thin-films type Pt micorheater were analyzed with Pt-RTD integrated on the same substrate. The heating temperature of Pt microheater could be up to 40$0^{\circ}C$ with 1.5 watts of the heating power.

Platinum-Cobalt alloy thin films were deposited on $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate by magnetron cosputtering for RTD temperature sensors. We made Pt-Co alloy resistance patterns on the $Al_{2}O_{3}$ substrate by lift-off method and investigated the physical and electrical characteristics of these films under various conditions, the input power, working vacuum, annealing temperature and time, and also after annealing these films. The resistivity and sheet resistivity of these films were decreased with increasing the annealing temperature. At input power of Pt : $4.4\;W/cm^{2}$, Co : $6.91\;W/cm^{2}$, working vacuum of 10 mTorr and annealing conditions of $800^{\circ}C$ and 60 min, the resistivity and sheet resistivity of Pt-Co thin films was $15{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ and $0.5{\Omega}/{\square}$, respectively and the TCR value of Pt-Co alloy thin films with thickness of $3000{\AA}$ were $3740ppm/^{\circ}C$ in the temperature range of $25{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. These results indicate that Pt-Co alloy thin films have potentiality for the RTD temperature sensors.
