In order to utilize silicon carbide (SiC) as an inner part of fluidized bed reactor (FBR) for manufacturing poly-silicon, we have carried out the thermodynamic calculation on the overall reactions including poly-silicon synthesis and compatibility of SiC with FBR process. The resources of silicon included $SiH_4(MS)$, $SiHCl_3(TCS)$ and $SiCl_4(STC)$ and the thermodynamic yield of the FBR with MS, TCS and STC were compared each other with variable range of temperature, pressure and hydrogen to silicon ratio. The silicon yield of MS, TCS and STC were 100%, 28% and 4%, respectively, throughout the conventional FBR conditions. Silicon carbide having high hardness and strength showed strong resistance to granule collisions during the FBR process using a lab-scale reactor. And it also showed quite good compatibility with the typical FBR processes of MS and TCS resources.

The fabrication and experimentation of multi-channel electrodes which enable detecting and recording of multi-site neuronal signals have been investigated. A multi-channel electrode array was fabricated by depositing 2000${\AA}$ thick Au layer on the 1000${\AA}$ thick Ti adhesion layer on a glass wafer. The metal paths were patterned by wet etching and passivated by depositing a PECVD silicon nitride insulation layer to prevent signals from intermixing or cross-talking. After placing a thin slice of rat cerebellar granule cell in the culture ring located in central portion of the multi-channel electrode plate, a neuronal signal from an electrode which is in contact with the cerebellar granule cell has been detected. It was found that the electrode impedance ranges 200㏀∼1㏁ and the impedance is not changed by cleaning with nitric acid. Also, the impedance is inversely proportion to the exposed electrode area and the cross-talk is negligible when the electrode spacing is bigger than 600$\mu\textrm{m}$. The amplitude and frequency of the measured action potential were 38㎷ and 2㎑, which are typical values. From the experimental results, the fabricated multi-channel electrode array proved to be suitable for multi-site neuronal signal detection for the analysis of a complicated cell network.
