Thick diamond film having ~700${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thickness was deposited on polycrystalline molybdenum (Mo) substrate using high power (4kW) microwave plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (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 photoconductivity. 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.

A single-crystalline epitaxial film of GaAs has been grown on Si using a gs assisted-ionized vapour beam eptaxial technique. The native oxide layer on the silicon substrate was removed at 550$^{\circ}C$ by use of an accelerated arsenic ion beam, instead of a high-temperature desorption. During the growth the substrate temperature was maintained at 550$^{\circ}C$. Transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction data suggest that the GaAs layer is an epitaxially grown single-crystalline layer. The possibility of growing device quality GaAs on Si is able demonstrated through fabrication of GaAs MODFET on Si substrates.

Characteristics of piezoelectric thick films prepared by screen printing were investigated. The piezoelectric thick films were fabricated using Pb(Al,Nb)O$_3$-Pb(Zr,Ti)O$_3$ system on Si-substrate. The fabricated thick films were burned out at 400$^{\circ}C$ and sintered at 850∼1000$^{\circ}C$ using rapid thermal annealing(RTA) precess. The thickness of piezoelectric thick films were 10$\mu\textrm{m}$. PAN-PZT thick film on Ag-Pd/SiO$_2$/Si prepared at 900$^{\circ}C$/1300sec had remanent polarization of 19.70 ${\mu}$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$.

ZnO thin films for Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator(FBAR) were prepared by FTS (Facing Target Sputtering) system. The FTS methode enable to generate high density plasma, and it has a high deposition rate at 1mTorr pressure. Therefore, the ZnO thin films were deposited on $AZO/SiO_2/Si$ substrates with oxygen gas flow rate, and the other sputtering conditions were fixed such as a sputtering current of 0.8A, a substrate temperature at room temperature. AZO bottom electrode were deposited on $SiO_2/Si$ substrate and by Zn:Al(Al:2wt%) metal target. ZnO thin film thickness and the c-axis preferred orientation of ZnO thin film were evaluated by ${\alpha}-step$ and XRD.

We investigated the speed change of the diamond spherical abrasive during the substrate surface polishing under the pad compression by using classical molecular dynamics modeling. We performed three-dimensional molecular dynamics simulations using the Morse potential functions for the copper substrate and the Tersoff potential function for the diamond abrasive. As the compressive pressure increased, the indented depth of the diamond abrasive increased and then, the speed of the diamond abrasive along the direction of the pad moving was decreased. Molecular simulation result such as the abrasive speed decreasing due to the pad pressure increasing gave important information for the chemical mechanical polishing including the mechanical removal rate with both the pad speed and the pad compressive pressure.

We have investigated growth of CdTe thin films by using (As, GaAs) buffer layers for application of large scale IR focal plane arrays(IFPAs). Buffer layers were grown by molecular beam epitaxy(MBE), which reduced the lattice mismatch of CdTe/Si and prevented native oxide on Si substrates. CdTe thin films were grown by metal organic chemical deposition system(MOCVD). As a result, polycrystalline CdTe films were grown on Si(100) and arsenic coated-Si(100) substrate. In other case, single crystalline CdTe(400) thin film was grown on GaAs coated-Si(100) substrate. Moreover, we observed hillock structure and mirror like surface on the (400) orientated epitaxial CdTe thin film.

Nowadays, the research on the system integration using various technologies, like MCM-C, MCM-L and MCM-D. Especially, MCM-D technology is suitable for mmwave application due to its high resolution of patterning and thermal property similar to that of semiconductor devices. In this work, integrated passive devices like inductor, capacitor and resistor are evaluated on the GaAs substrate and their characteristics are examined. And finally, the Wilkinson power divider using lumped IPD are evaluated on GaAs substrate and it shows low insertion loss below 0.5 dB and the isolation over 15 dB.

Aluminum films were deposited by the pyrolysis of triisobutylaluminum(TIBA) in a cold wall LPCVD system for the metallization of high level IC. the selectivity on Si/SiO2 substrate and the contact resistance on submicron contacts were investigated. The carbon free aluminum film could be obtained when the aluminum film was deposited at low substrate temperature. Contact resistances of CVD Al/n+ Si contacts whose contact size was 0.5 .mu.m werre as low as 20~40.OMEGA./ea, which is 30~50% of contact resistance obtained by sputtering technique.

A new approach for groundwater treatment combines a permeable Fe(0) barrier to breakdown higher chlorinated solvents like PCE and TCE with a downgradient aerobic biological treatment system to biotransform less chlorinated solvents, such as DCE and vinyl chloride (VC). The expected bacterial performance downgradient of an Fe(0) barrier was evaluated through laboratory batch experiments with a toluene-degrading mixed culture that cometabolically transforms cis-1,2-DCE and VC. The amount of cis-1,2-DCE (initially at 2,000 ppb) and VC (initially at 2,000 ppb) transformed was controlled by the initial toluene (20,000 ppb) concentration. VC was removed much more effectively than Cis-1,2-DCE, and a higher toluene concentration in comparison to the co-substrate concentrations was needed for complete co-substrate removal. Overall, the coupling of an Fe(0) barrier and subsequent biodegradation appears feasible for remediation of complex mixtures of chlorinated solvents and petroleum hydrocarbons in groundwater
