This paper describes the characteristics of polycrystalline 3C-SiC doubly clamped beam micro resonators. The polycrystalline 3C-SiC doubly clamped beam resonators with $60{\sim}100{\mu}m$ lengths, $10{\mu}m$ width, and $0.4{\mu}m$ thickness were fabricated using a surface micromachining technique. Polycrystalline 3C-SiC micro resonators were actuated by piezoelectric element and their fundamental resonant frequency was measured by a laser vibrometer in vacuum at room temperature. For the $60{\sim}100{\mu}m$ long cantilevers, the fundamental frequency appeared at $373.4{\sim}908.1\;kHz$. The resonant frequencies of doubly clamped beam with lengths were higher than simulated results because of tensile stress. Therefore, polycrystalline 3C-SiC doubly clamped beam micro resonators are suitable for RF MEMS devices and bio/chemical sensor applications.

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.

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.

In this paper, the polycrystalline silicon photodiodes utilizing vertically directed current path are investigated. The location of electrodes is considered with the grain direction and the current path. The relationships between grain boundaries and characteristics of photodiode are simulated to apply the vertically grown polycrystalline silicon to photodiodes. From the results, the vertically grown polycrystalline silicon photodiode is a potential candidate for CMOS image sensor. However, the increment of dark current related to grain boundaries should be reduced.

마이크로 스케일에서 다결정 재료의 소성 거동을 살펴볼 때, 결정의 geometrically necessary dislocation(GND) 효과에 의한 소성 구배(plastic gradient)를 고려하는 것은 재료의 소성 거동에 큰 영향을 줄 수 있다. 이러한 영향을 확인하기 위하여, 본 연구에서는 소성 구배의 영향을 고려한 다결정 고체(polycrystalline solids)의 거동을 유한요소해석을 이용하여 살펴보았다. 소성 구배의 영향을 살펴보기 위해 구배 경화 계수(gradient hardness coefficient)와 먼 거리 변형률에 대한 재료 길이 변수 (material length parameter)가 사용되었다. 재료 길이 변수에 의한 영향을 확인하기 위해, 재료 길이 변수의 차이에 따른 다결정 고체의 거동을 분석하였다. 또한 소성 구배 효과의 고려 및 재료 길이 변수에 따른 다결정 고체 내부에 위치한 단결정이 받는 영향을 살펴보았다. 재료 길이 변수에 따라 결정이 받는 영향을 비교하여, GND에 의한 다결정 고체 거동의 영향을 확인하였다.

This paper describes the temperature characteristics of polycrystalline 3C-SiC micro resonators. The $1.2{\mu}m$ and $0.4{\mu}m$ thick polycrystalline 3C-SiC cantilever and doubly clamped beam resonators with $60{\sim}100{\mu}m$ 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 temperature range of $25{\sim}200^{\circ}C$. The TCF(Temperature Coefficient of Frequency) of 60, 80 and 100 On long cantilever resonators were -9.79, -7.72 and -8.0 ppm/$^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, TCF of 60, 80 and $100{\mu}m$ long doubly clamped beam resonators were -15.74, -12.55 and -8.35 ppm/$^{\circ}C$. Therefore, polycrystalline 3C-SiC resonators are suitable with RF MEMS devices and bio/chemical sensor applications in harsh environments.

This study investigated the effect of surface roughness of zinc oxide (ZnO) layer on the growth of polycrystalline Si layer via an Al-induced layer exchange process. It was found that the growth rate, grain size, crystallization fraction, and preferential orientation of the polycrystalline Si layer were strongly influenced by the surface roughness of the underlying ZnO layer. As the roughness of the ZnO surface increased, a higher growth rate (~40 min) and preferential Si (100) orientation were obtained because of the spatial concentration fluctuations in the Al-Si alloy, induced by the surface roughness of the underlying ZnO layer.

To integrate the sensor driver and logic circuits, fabricating down scaled transistors has been main issue. At this research, short channel effects were analyzed after n channel polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor was fabricated at high temperature. As a result, on current, on/off current ratio and transconductance were increased but threshold voltage, electron mobility and s-slope were reduced with a decrease of channel length. When carriers that develop at grain boundary in activated polycrystalline silicon have no gate biased, on current was increased with punch through by drain current. Also, due to BJT effect (parallel bipolar effect) that developed under region of channel by increase of gate voltage on current was rapidly increased.
