The Separated Pulsed Laser Deposition (SPLD) technique uses two chambers that are separated by a conic metallic wall with a central orifice. The pressures of ablation chamber and deposition chamber were controlled by the differential vacuum system. We deposited zinc oxide (ZnO) thin films by SPLD method to obtain high quality thin films. When the bias voltage of +500 V was applied between a substrate and an orifice, the ZnO thin film was deposited efficiently. The deposited ZnO thin film at ablation chamber gas pressure of Ar 5 mTorr showed the sharpest ultraviolet absorption edge indicatory the band gap of about 3.1 eV. ZnO thin films were deposited using effect of electric and magnetic fields in the SPLD method. E${\times}$B drift happened by an electric fields and a magnetic fields, activated plasma plume, as a result the film surface became very smooth. When the bias voltage of +500 V and magnet of 0,1 T were applied the ZnO thin films surface state showed high quality. Grain size was 41.99 nm and RMS was 0.84 nm.

The dry etching characteristics of SnO thin films were investigated using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) in Ar, $CF_4$, $Cl_2$ chemistries. the SnO thin films were deposited by reactive rf magnetron sputtering with Sn metal target. In order to study the etching rates of SnO, the processing factors of processing pressure, source power, bias power, and etching gas were controlled. The etching behavior of SnO films under various conditions was obtained and discussed by comparing to that of $SiO_2$ films. In our results, the etch rate of SnO film was obtained as 94nm/min. The etch rates were mainly affected by physical etching and the contribution of chemical etching to SnO films appeared relatively week.

This paper describes the electrical characteristics of polycrystalline (poly) 3C-SiC thin film diodes, in which poly 3C-SiC thin films on n-type and p-type Si wafers, respectively, were deposited by APCVD using HMDS, Hz, and Ar gas at $1180^{\circ}C$ for 3 hr. The schottky diode with Au/poly 3C-SiC/Si(n-type) structure was fabricated. Its threshold voltage ($V_d$), breakdown voltage, thickness of depletion layer, and doping concentration ($N_D$) values were measured as 0.84 V, over 140 V, 61nm, and $2.7\;{\times}\;10^{19}\;cm^3$, respectively. The p-n junction diodes fabricated on the poly 3C-SiC/Si(p-type) were obtained like characteristics of single 3C-SiC p-n junction diodes. Therefore, poly 3C-SiC thin film diodes will be suitable microsensors in conjunction with Si fabrication technology.

An accurate cross sections set is necessary for the quantitatively understanding and modeling of plasma phenomena. By using the electron swarm method, we determine an accurate electron cross sections set for objective atoms or molecule at low electron energy range. It is general calculation that used in this method to an two-term approximation of Boltzmann equation. But it may give erroneous transport coefficients for CF$_4$ molecule treated in this paper having \`C2v symmetry\`, therefore, multi-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis which can consider anisotropic scattering exactly is carried out. It is necessary to require understanding of the fundamental principle of analysis method. Therefore, in this paper, we compared the electron transport coefficients(W and ND$\_$L/) in pure Ar, O$_2$, and CF$_4$ gas calculated by using two-term approximation of the Boltzmann equation analysis code uses the algorithm proposed by Tagashira et al. with those by multi-term approximation by Rubson and Ness which was developed at James-Cook university, and discussed an application and/or validity of the calculation method by comparing these calculated results.

This paper describes on the characteristics of Pd thin films deposited on poly-crystalline 3C-SiC buffer layers for microsensors, in which the poly 3C-SiC was grown on Si, $SiO_2$, and AlN substrates, respectively, by APCVD using HMDS, $H_2$, and Ar gas at $1100^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. In this work, a Pd thin film was deposited on the poly 3C-SiC film by RF magnetron sputter. The thickness, uniformity, and quality of these samples were evaluated by SEM. Crystallinity and orientation of the Pd film were analyzed by XRD. Finally, Pd/poly 3C-SiC schottky diodes were fabricated and characterized by current-voltage measurements. From these results, Pd/poly 3C-SiC devices are promising for high temperature hydrogen sensors and other microsensors.

In this paper, $Ba_{0.5}$Sr$_{0.5}$TiO$_3$ thin films were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO$_2$/Si substrate by RF magnetron sputtering method. We investigated effect of deposition conditions (especially RF input power) on structural properties of BST thin films.

The channel of the superconducting Flux Flow Transistor has been fabricated with plasma etching method using ICP. The ICP conditions were 700 W of ICP power, 150 W of rf chuck power, 5 mTorr of the pressure in chamber and 1:1 of Ar : $Cl_2$, respectively. The channel etched by plasma gas showed superconducting characteristics of over 77 K and superior surface morphology. The critical current of SFFT was altered by varying the external applied current. As the external applied current increased from 0 to 12 mA, the critical current decreased from 28 to 22 mA. Then the obtained $r_m$ values were smaller than $0.1\Omega$ at a bias current of 40 mA. The current gain was about 0.5. Output resistance was below $0.2\Omega$.

This paper presents the characteristics of Ta-N thin film strain gauges that are suitable for harsh environemts, which were deposited on thermally oxidized Si substrates by DC reactive magnetronsputtering in an argon-nitrogen atmosphere (Ar-$N_2$ (4 ~ 16 %)). These films were annealed for 1 hr in $2{\times}10^{-6}$ Torr in a vacuum furnace with temperatures that ranged from 500 - $1000^{\circ}C$. The optimized deposition and annealing conditions of the Ta-N thin film strain gauges were determined using 8 % $N_2$ gas flow ratio and annealing at $900^{\circ}C$ for 1 hr. Under optimum formation conditions, the Ta-N thin film strain gauges obtained a high electrical resistivity, ${\rho}\;=\;768.93\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, a low temperature coefficient of resistance, $TCR\;=\;-84\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ and a high temporal stability with a good longitudinal gauge factor, GF=4.12. The fabricated Ta-N thin film strain gauges are expected to be used inmicromachined pressure sensors and load cells that are operable under harsh environments.

I-D ZnO nanostructures were fabricated by thermal evaporation method on Si(100), GaN and $Al_2O_3$ substrates without a catalyst at the reaction temperature of $700^{\circ}C$. Only pure Zn powder was used as a source material and Ar was used as a carrier gas. The shape and growth direction of synthesized ZnO nanostructures is determined by the crystal structure and the lattice mismatch between ZnO and substrates. The ZnO nanostructure on Si substrate were inclined regardless of their substrate orientation. The origin of ZnO/Si interface is highly lattice-mismatched and the surface of the Si substrate inevitably has the $SiO_2$ layer. The ZnO nanostructure on the $Al_2O_3$ substrate was synthesized into the rod shape and grown into particular direction. For the GaN substrate, however, ZnO nanostructure with the honeycomb-like shape was vertically grown, owing to the similar lattice parameter with GaN substrate.
