This paper describe the fabrication of a Pd/polycrystalline 3C-SiC schottky diode and its characteristics, in which the polycrystalline 3C-SiC layer and Pd Schottky contact were deposited by using APCVD and sputter, respectively. Crystalline quality, uniformity, and preferred orientations of the Pd thin film were evaluated by SEM and XRD, respectively. Pd/poly 3C-SiC Schottky diodes were fabricated and characterized by I-V and C-V measurements. Its electric current density Js and barrier height voltage were measured as $2\times10^{-3}$ A/$cm^2$ and 0.58 eV, respectively. These devices were operated until about $400^{\circ}C$. Therefore, from these results, Pd/poly 3C-SiC Schottky devices have very high potential for high temperature chemical sensor applications.

The surface flatness of heteroepitaxially grown 3C-SiC thin films is a key factor affecting electronic and mechanical device applications. This paper describes the surface flatness of polycrystalline 3C-SiC thin films by the gas flow control according to the location change of geometric structure. The polycrystalline 3C-SiC thin film was deposited by APCVD(Atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition) at $1200^{\circ}C$ using HMDS(Hexamethyildisilane : $Si_2(CH_3)_6)$ as single precursor, and 5 slm Ar as the main flow gas. According to the location of geometric structure, surface fringes and flatness changed. It shows the distribution of thickness is formed uniformly in the specific location of the geometric structure.

This paper describes the resonant characteristics of polycrystalline SiC micro resonators. The $1{\mu}m$ thick polycrystalline 3C-SiC cantilevers with different lengths were fabricated using a surface micromachining technique. Polycrystalline 3C-SiC micro resonators were actuated by piezoelectric element and their fundamental resonance was measured by a laser vibrometer in vacuum at room temperature. For the 100 ~ $40{\mu}m$ long cantilevers, the fundamental frequency appeared at 147.2 kHz - 856.3 kHz. The $100{\mu}m$ and $80{\mu}m$ long cantilevers have second mode resonant frequency at 857.5 kHz and 1.14 MHz. Therefore, polycrystalline 3C-SiC micro resonators are suitable for RF MEMS devices and bio/chemical sensor applications.

The surface flatness of heteroepitaxially grown 3C-SiC thin films is a key factor affecting electronic and mechanical device applications. This paper describes the surface flatness of poly(polycrystalline) 3C-SiC thin films according to Ar flow rates and the geometric structures of reaction tube, respectively. The poly 3C-SiC thin film was deposited by APCVD (Atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition) at $1200^{\circ}C$ using HMDS (Hexamethyildisilane : $Si_2(CH_3)_6)$ as single precursor, and 1~10 slm Ar as the main flow gas. According to the increase of main carrier gas, surface fringes and flatness are improved. It shows the distribution of thickness is formed uniformly.

Micro resonators have been actively investigated for bio/chemical sensors and RF M/NEMS devices. Among various materials, SiC is a very promising material for micro/nano resonators since the ratio of its Young's modulus, E, to mass density, $\rho$, is significantly higher than other semiconductor materials, such as, Si and GaAs. Polycrystalline 3C-SiC cantilever with different lengths were fabricated using a surface micromachining technique. Polycrystalline 3C-SiC micro resonators were actuated by piezoelectric element and its fundamental resonance was measured by a laser vibrometer in air and vacuum at room temperature, respectively. For the cantilever with $100{\mu}m$ length, $10{\mu}m$width and $1.3{\mu}m$ thickness, the fundamental frequency appeared at 147.2 kHz.

This paper describes the fabrication and characteristics of Schottky micro hydrogen sensors for high temperatures by using polycrystalline(poly) 3C-SiC thin films grown on Si substrates with thermal oxide layer using APCVD. Pd/poly 3C-SiC Schottky diodes were made and evaluated by I-V and C-V measurements. Electric current density and barrier height voltage were $2{\times}10^{-3}A/cm^2$ and 0.58 eV, respectively. These devices could operate stably at about 400 $^{\circ}$. The characteristics of implemented sensors have been investigated in terms of sensitivity, linearity of response, response rate, and response time. Therefore, from these results, Pd/poly 3C-SiC Schottky devices have very high potential for high temperature $H_2$ sensor applications.

This study estimated influences of the Ulsan Fault on tectonic movement and uplift characteristics in the Eastern Block of the Ulsan Fault. The averaged uplift rate in the Northern Coast of the Eastern Block was 0.202 m/ka, while the site in Seokbyeong-ri, Guryongpo-eup, Pohang-si, showed relatively high rate of 0.249 m/ka, attributable to influences of small fault movement, called the Gangsa Fault. Higher averaged rate of 0.270 m/ka than in the Northern Coast was calculated in the Southern Coast of the Eastern Block. The site in north of Haseo-ri, Yangnam-myeon, Gyeongju-si, showed the highest rate, suggesting influences of the Eupcheon Fault. The Western Block of the Ulsan Fault indicated the averaged rate of 0.208 m/ka, similar to that of the Northern Coast. The sites approximately 10 km apart from the Ulsan Fault showed 1.3 times higher rate in the Eastern Block than in the Western Block, while similar rates were calculated in the sites >20 km apart from the Ulsan Fault. These distributions of the rate suggest that the Ulsan Fault has significantly influenced development of marine terrace and tectonic movement in the study area, while local fault movements have also played a role.
