This Paper describes the Raman scattering characteristics of polycrystalline (Poly) 3C-SiC thin films, in which they were deposited on AlN buffer layer by APCVD using hexamethyldisilane (MHDS) and carrier gases (Ar+$H_2$). When the Raman spectra of SiC films deposited on the AlN layer of before and after annealing were worked according to growth temperature, D and G bands of graphite were measured. It can be explained that poly 3C-SiC films admixe with nanoparticle graphite and its C/Si rate is higher than ($C/Si\;{\approx}\;3$) that of the conventional SiC, which has no D and G bands related to graphite. From the Raman shifts of 3C-SiC films deposited at $1180^{\circ}C$ on the AlN layer of after annealing, the biaxial stress of poly 3C-SiC films was obtained as 896 MPa.

This paper describes the physical characterizations of polycrystalline 3C-SiC thin films heteroepitaxially grown on Si wafers with thermal oxide, In this work, the 3C-SiC film was deposited by LPCVD (low pressure chemical vapor deposition) method using single precursor 1, 3-disilabutane $(DSB:\;H_3Si-CH_2-SiH_2-CH_3)\;at\;850^{\circ}C$. The crystallinity of the 3C-SiC thin film was analyzed by XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy), XRD (X-ray diffraction) and FT-IR (fourier transform-infrared spectometers), respectively. The surface morphology was also observed by AFM (atomic force microscopy) and voids or dislocations between SiC and $SiO_2$ were measured by SEM (scanning electron microscope). Finally, residual strain was investigated by Raman scattering and a peak of the energy level was less than other type SiC films, From these results, the grown poly 3C-SiC thin film is very good crystalline quality, surface like mirror, and low defect and strain. Therefore, the polycrystalline 3C-SiC is suitable for harsh environment MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-Systems) applications.

본 논문은 SOI트랜스듀서 및 회로를 위해, Si 직접접합과 M-C국부연마법에 의한 박막SOI구조의 형성 공정을 기술한다. 또한, 이러한 박막SOI의 전기적 및 압저항효과 특성들을 SOI MOSFET와 cantilever빔으로 각각 조사했으며, bulk Si에 상당한다는 것이 확인되었다. 한편, SOI구조를 이용한 두 종류의 압력트랜스듀서를 제작 및 평가했다. SOI구조의 절연층을 압저항의 유전체분리층으로 이용한 압력트랜스듀서의 경우, $-20^{\circ}C$에서 $350^{\circ}C$의 온도범위에 있어서 감도 및 offset전압의 변화는 자각 -0.2% 및 +0.15%이하였다. 한편, 절연층을 etch-stop막으로 이용한 압력트랜스듀서에 있어서의 감도변화를 ${\pm}2.3%$의 표준편차 이내로 제어할 수 있다. 이러한 결과들로부터 개발된 SDB공정으로 제작된 SOI구조는 집적화마이크로트랜스듀서 및 회로개발에 많은 장점을 제공할 것이다. This paper has been described a process technology for the fabrication of Si-on-insulator(SOI) transducers and circuits. The technology utilizes Si-wafer direct bonding(SDB) and mechanical-chemical(M-C) local polishing to create a SOI structure with a high-qualify, uniformly thin layer of single-crystal Si. The electrical and piezoresistive properties of the resultant thin SOI films have been investigated by SOI MOSFET's and cantilever beams, and confirmed comparable to those of bulk Si. Two kinds of pressure transducers using a SOI structure have been proposed. The shifts in sensitivity and offset voltage of the implemented pressure transducers using interfacial $SiO_{2}$ films as the dielectrical isolation layer of piezoresistors were less than -0.2% and +0.15%, respectively, in the temperature range from $-20^{\circ}C$ to $+350^{\circ}C$. In the case of pressure transducers using interfacial $SiO_{2}$ films as an etch-stop layer during the fabrication of thin Si membranes, the pressure sensitivity variation can be controlled to within a standard deviation of ${\pm}2.3%$ from wafer to wafer. From these results, the developed SDB process and the resultant SOI films will offer significant advantages in the fabrication of integrated microtransducers and circuits.

This paper describes the TiW ohmic contact characteristics under the surface treatment of the polycrystalline 3C-SiC thin film grown on $SiO_2/Si(100)$ wafers by APCVD. The poly 3C-SiC surface was polished by using CMP(chemical mechanical polishing) process and then oxidized by wet-oxidation process, and finally removed SiC oxide layers. A TiW thin film as a metalization process was deposited on the surface treated poly 3C-SiC layer and was annealed through a RTA(rapid thermal annealing) process. TiW/poly 3C-SiC was investigated to get mechanical, physical, and electrical characteristics using SEM, XRD, XPS, AFM, optical microscope, I-V characteristic, and four-point probe, respectively. Contact resistivity of the surface treated 3C-SiC was measured as the lowest $1.2{\times}10^{-5}{\Omega}cm^2$ at $900^{\circ}C$ for 45 sec. Therefore, the surface treatments of poly 3C-SiC are necessary to get better contact resistance for extreme environment MEMS applications.

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 characteristics of a piezoresistive pressure sensor fabricated on a SOI (Si-on-insulator) structure, in which the SOI structures of Si/$SiO_{2}$/Si and Si/$Al_{2}O_{3}$/Si were formed by SDB (Si-wafer direct bonding) technology and hetero-epitaxial growth, respectively. The SOI pressure sensors using the insulator of a SOI structure as the dielectrical isolation layer of piezoresistors, were operated at higher temperatures up to $300^{\circ}C$. In the case of pressure sensors using the insulator of a SOI structure as an etch-stop layer during the formation of thin Si diaphragms, the pressure sensitivity variation of the SOI pressure sensors was controlled to within a standard deviation of ${\pm}2.3%$ over 200 devices. Moreover, the pressure sensors fabricated on the double SOI ($Si/Al_{2}O_{3}/Si/SiO_{2}/Si$) structures formed by combining SDB technology with epitaxial growth also showed very excellent characteristics with high-temperature operation and high-resolution.

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.

정귀상,심재철,Chung, Gwiy-Sang,Shim, Jae-Cheol 한국전기전자재료학회 2010 전기전자재료학회논문지 Vol.23 No.2

This paper describes that single crystalline 3C-SiC (cubic silicon carbide) thin films have been deposited on carbonized Si(100) substrates using hexamethyldisilane (HMDS, $Si_2(CH_3){_6}$) as a safe organosilane single precursor and a nonflammable mixture of Ar and $H_2$ gas as the carrier gas by APCVD at $1280^{\circ}C$. The deposition was performed under various conditions to determine the optimized growth condition. The crystallinity of the 3C-SiC thin film was analyzed by XRD (X-ray diffraction). The surface morphology was also observed by AFM (atomic force microscopy) and voids between SiC and Si interfaces were measured by SEM (scanning electron microscopy). Finally, residual strain and hall mobility was investigated by surface profiler and hall measurement, respectively. From these results, the single crystalline 3C-SiC film had a good crystal quality without defects due to viods, a low residual stress, a very low roughness.
