In order to apply for the gas sensing layer and the piezoelectric thin film devices, we studied the effects of magnetron sputtering conditions and annealing temperature on the electrical and structual characteristics of the ZnO thin film. The optimal deposition conditions, in order to obtain a c axis of the ZnO (002) phase thin film which is perpendicular to SiO$_{2}$/Si substrate, were like these ; substrate temperature 150.deg. C, chamber pressure 2 mtorr, R.F. power 300 watts, gas flow ratio 0.4[O$_{2}$(Ar + $O_{2}$)]. When the ZnO thin film was annealed in 600.deg. C, $O_{2}$ gas ambient for 1 hr, the resistivity was 2.6 x 10$^{2}$.ohm.cm and the grain size of ZnO thin film was less than 1 .mu.m. So the ZnO thin film acquired from above conditions can apply for the gas sensing layer which require a c axis perpendicular to the substrate surface.

In this work, the indium zinc oxide (IZO) films had been deposited on the glass substrate coated with the SiO film. Based on a comparative investigation of the IZO monolayer and IZO/SiO multilayer, it is shown that the thickness of SiO film has a great effect on the mechanical properties of the thin films. The AFM images of the IZO thin film included the SiO film were shown smoother surfaces than monolayer. Resistivity was in inverse proportion to Mobility. If it deposited the SiO film on the substrate, the layer of change was generated between two layer(SiO and substrate). The layer of change influenced resistance because of oxygen content was more than the IZO monolayer.

This study was performed to investigate the deposition mechanism of SiO$_2$ by ArF excimer laser(l93nm) CVD with Si$_2$H$\_$6/ and N$_2$O gas mixture and evaluate laser CVD quantitatively by modeling. With ArF excimer laser CVD, thin films can be deposited at low temperature(below 300$^{\circ}C$), with less damage and good uniformity owing to generation of conformal reaction species by singular wavelength of the laser beam. In this study, new model of SiO$_2$ deposition process by laser CVD was introduced and deposition rate was simulated by computer with the basis on this modeling. And simulation results were compared with experimental results measured at various conditions such as reaction gas ratio, chamber pressure, substrate temperature and laser beam intensity.

SiC and Si mixtures dispersed by 0.5~10.0 wt% of Al2O3 and reinforced by SiC whisker were sintered to Si3N4 bonded SiC bodies at 140$0^{\circ}C$ in a N2 gas atmosphere, and the nitridation and mechanical properties of sintered bodies were investigated. From these observation, it is concluded that relative density and bending strength increased with the rising of nitridation and the highest nitridation ratio was obtained for a specimen having 1.5 wt% Al2O3. On the other hand, the amount of $\beta$-Si3N4 in the specimens containing Al2O3 more than 5.0 wt% was increased abruptly and the best in fracture toughness was sintered for a composits having 30 wt% SiC whiskers.

This paper describes on RIE(Reactive Ion Etching) characteristics of 3C-SiC(Silicon Carbide) grown on Si(100) wafers. During RIE of 3C-SiC films in this work, $CHF_3$ gas is used to form of polymer as a side wall for excellent anisotropy etching. From this process, etch rates are obtained a $60{\sim}980{\AA}/min$ by various conditions such as $CHF_3$ gas flux, $O_2$ addition ratio, RF power and electrode distance. Also, approximately $40^{\circ}$ mesa structures are successfully formed at 100 mTorr $CHF_3$ gas flow ratio, 200 W RF power and 30 mm electrode distance. Moreover, vertical side wall is fabricated by anisotropy etching with 50% $O_2$ addition ratio and 25 mm electrode distance. Therefore, RIE of 3C-SiC films using $CHF_3$ could be applicable as fabrication process technology for high-temperature 3C-SiC MEMS applications.

AlN/Al/SiO$_2$/Si thin films for application to FBAR(Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator) devices were prepared by FTS(Facing Targets sputtering system) apparatus which provides a stable discharge at low gas pressures and can deposit high quality thin films because of the substrate located apart from the plasma. The AlN thin films were deposited on a $SiO_2(1{\mu}m)/Si(100)$ substrate using an Al bottom electrode. The process parameters were fixed such as sputering power of 200W, working pressures of 1mTorr and AlN thin film thickness of 800nm, respectively and crytallographic characteristics of AlN thin films were investigated as a function of $N_2$ gas flow rate$[N_2/(N_2+Ar)]$. Thickness of AlN thin films were measured by $\alpha$-step, the crystallographic characteristics and c-axis preferred orientation were evaluated by XRD.

The applications of the high density plasma sources to the etching in semiconductor fabrication process are actively studied because of the more strict requirement from the dry etching process due to shrinking down of the critical dimension. But in the oxide etching with the high density plasma sources, abundant fluorine atoms released from the flurocarbon feed gas make it difficult to get the highly selective $SiO_2/Si$ etching. In this study, to improve the $SiO_2/Si$ etch selectivity through the control of the radical loss channels, we propose the wall heating , one of methods of controlling loss mechanisms. With appearance mass spectroscopy(AMS) and actinometric optical emission spectroscopy(OES), the increase of both radicals impinging on the substrate and existing in bulk plasma, and the decrease of the fluorine atom with wall temperature are observed. As a result, a 40% improvement of the selectivity was achieved for the carbon rich feed gas.

Mixtures Of AUC-UO$_2$and Gd$_2$O$_3$ Powders doped With Cr$_2$O$_3$ or Cr$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$ were Pressed and sintered at 1730 t in hydrogen gas witk various water-vapor contents. The density of UO$_2$- 6wt% Gd$_2$O$_3$ pellets can be increased from 91% TD to 94.5% TD in 1 vol% $H_2O$-H$_2$ gases by the addition of 0.02wt% Cr$_2$O$_3$-(0.01~0.04) wt% SiO$_2$. The magnitude of density increase is much larger in (1~3 vol%) $H_2O$-H$_2$ gases than in 0.05 vol% $H_2O$-H$_2$ gas. The densification of U0$_2$- Gd$_2$O$_3$ compact is significantly delayed in the temperature range between 1300 and 1500 t , but that of compacts with Cr$_2$O$_3$-SiO$_2$ is not. The role of Cr$_2$O$_3$ and SiO$_2$ in densification is discussed.

Highly [100]-oriented MgO thin films were deposited on Si(100) single crystal substrates by reactive RF magnetron sputtering. The effects of substrate temperature, gas pressure, RF input powder, and gas composition on the characteristics of MgO thin films were studied. The higher substrate temperature and the lower operating pressure were, the better crystallinity of the deposited MgO thin films were. The influences of the RF input power and oxygen to argon ratio were very complex. The physical characteristics of the films changed dramatically with deposition conditions. Highly smooth and epitaxial MgO films were obtained at the deposition conditions as follows; subatrate temperature, $600^{\circ}C$; operating pressure, 10 mtorr; RF input power density, 2 W/$\textrm{cm}^2$; the percentage of oxygen, 10%.

The reaction of gas-phase atomic hydrogen with oxygen atoms chemisorbed on a silicon surface is studied by use of the classical trajectory approach. We have calculated the probability of the OH formation and energy deposit of the reaction exothermicity in the newly formed OH in the gas-surface reaction H(g) + O(ad)/Si${\rightarrow}$ OH(g) + Si. All reactive events occur in a single impact collision on a subpicosecond scale, following the Eley-Rideal mechanism. These events occur in a localized region around the adatom site on the surface. The reaction probability is dependent upon the gas temperature and shows the maximum near 1000 K, but it is essentially independent of the surface temperature. The reaction probability is also independent upon the initial excitation of the O-Si vibration. The reaction energy available for the product state is carried away by the desorbing OH in its translational and vibrational motions. When the initial excitation of the O-Si vibration increases, translational and vibrational energies of OH rise accordingly, while the energy shared by rotational motion varies only slightly. Flow of energy between the reaction zone and the solid has been incorporated in trajectory calculations, but the amount of energy propagated into the solid is only a few percent of the available energy released in the OH formation.
