  • 1. Production of the artificial zeolite from coal ash Coal fly ash is mainly composed of several oxides including $SiO_2$ and $Al_2O_3$ derived from inorganic compounds remained after burning. As minor components, $Fe_2O_3$ and oxides of Mg, Ca, P, Ti (trace) are also contained in the ash. These components are presented as glass form resulting from fusion in the process of the combustion of coal. In other word, coal ash may refer to a kind of aluminosilicate glass that is known to easily change to zeolite-like materials by hydrothermal reaction. Lots of hot seawater is disposing near thermal power plants after cooling turbine generator periodically. Using seawater in the hydrothermal reaction caused to produce low price artificial zeolite by reduction of sodium hydroxide consumption, heating energy and water cost. As coal ash were reacted hydrothermally, peaks of quartz and mullite in the ash were weakened and disappeared, and new Na-Pl peaks were appeared strengthily. Si-O-Si bonding of the bituminous coal ash was changed to Si-O-Al (and $Fe^{3+}$) bonding by the reaction. Therefore the produced Na-Pl type zeolite had high CEC of 276.7 $cmol^+{\cdot}kg^{-1}$ and well developed molecular sieve structure with low concentration of heavy metals. 2. Utilization of the artificial zeolite in agro-environment The artificial zeolite(1g) could remove 123.5 mg of zinc, 164.7 mg copper, 184.4 mg cadmium and 350.6 mg lead in the synthetic wastewater. The removability is higher 2.8 times in zinc, 3.3 times in copper, 4.7 times in cadmium and 4.8 times in lead than natural zeolite and charcoal powder. When the heavy metals were treated at the ratio of 150 $kg{\cdot}ha^{-1}$ to the rice plant, various growth inhibition were observed; brownish discoloration and death of leaf sheath, growth inhibition in culm length, number of panicles and grains, grain ripening and rice yield. But these growth inhibition was greatly alleviated by the application of artificial zeolite, therefore, rice yield increased $1.1{\sim}3.2$ times according to the metal kind. In addition, the concentration of heavy metals in the brown rice also lowered by $27{\sim}75%$. Artificial Granular Zeolites (AGZ) was developed for the purification of wastewater. Canon exchange capacity was 126.8 $cmol^+{\cdot}kg^{-1}$. AGZ had Na-Pl peaks mainly with some minor $C_3S$ peaks in X-ray diffractogram. In addition, AGZs had various pore structure that may be adhere the suspended solid and offer microbiological niche to decompose organic pollutants. AGZ could remove ammonium, orthophosphate and heavy metals simultaneously. Mixing ratio of artificial zeolite in AGZs was related positively with removal efficiency of $NH_4\;^+$ and negatively with that of $PO_4\;^{3-}$. Root growth of rice seedling was inhibited severely in the mine wastewater because of strong acidity and high concentration of heavy metals. As AGZ(1 kg) stayed in the wastewater(100L) for 4days, water quality turned into safely for agricultural usage and rice seedlings grew normally.

  • 바이오매스 가스화 프로세스 개발에 있어서 가장 기본적인 해결과제는 고발열량의 합성가스 제조, 냉가스 효율의 향상, 타르 발생량 저감 및 제거이다. 가스화 효율 향상에 대한 연구는 국내외 적으로 많이 이루어지고 있으나, 타르 발생량 저감에 대한 연구는 많이 이루어져 있지 않다. 타르는 분자량이 큰 방향적 탄화수소로 응축되면 점성이 높아 배관폐쇄, 정제설비의 압력손실 증가로 인해 운전정지 및 가스화율 저하의 원인이 된다. 가스화로에서 타르 발생량을 저감시키는 방법 중에는 Ni계 촉매를 이용하는 방법이 있으나, 카본 누적에 의한 활성저하, 알칼리금속에 의한 응집 등의 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 한편 철산화물은 합성가스 중의 C2-C3계의 타르를 분해하는데 효과가 알려져 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 적벽돌, 염색슬러지 회재 등에는 철산화물이 다량 함유되어 있는 것에 착안하여 폐기물중의 폐금속을 이용한 바이오매스 가스화에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 점토광물계 폐기물인 적벽돌 파쇄물($SiO_2$ 67.2%, $Al_2O_3$ 19.7%, $Fe_2O_3$ 8.7%, $K_2O$ 2.0%, $TiO_2$ 1.2%, MgO 0.7%)을 전처리 한 후 유동매체로하여 우드펠렛을 가스화한 결과, 가스 생성량이 증가하고, 타르 및 탄화수소류가 감소하는 경향을 나타내었다. 특히 타르는 후단의 타르 트랩에서 타르가 거의 검출이 되지 않았다. 전처리를 하지 않은 적벽돌 파쇄물은 반응시간이 경과한 후에 가스화율이 증가함에 따라 철화합이 가스화로내에서 환원되어 타르를 분해하는데에는 어느 정도의 반응시간이 필요한 것을 확인하였다.

  • Ga-doped ZnO (GZO)는 $300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도에서는 전기적으로 불안정하기 때문에 CIGS, CdTe, DSC와 같은 태양전지의 높은 공정온도 때문에 사용이 제한적이다. ZTO thin film은 Al2O3, SiO2, TiO2, ZnO tihin film과 비교하여 산소 및 수분에 대하여 투과성이 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 알려져 있다. 따라서 GZO single layer에 비하여 ZTO-GZO multi-layer를 구성하여 TCO를 제작하면, 높은 공정온도에서도 사용 가능하다. 실제 제작된 GZO single layer (300 nm)에서 비저항이 $7.69{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$에서 $500^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 $7.76{\times}10^{-2}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$으로 급격하게 상승한다. ZTO single layer (420 nm)는 as-grown에서는 측정 불가했지만, $400^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 $3.52{\times}10^{-1}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ $500^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 $4.10{\times}10^{-1}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$으로 열처리에 따른 큰 변화가 없다. 또한 ZTO-GZO multi-layer (720 nm)의 경우 비저항이 $2.11{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$에서 $500^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 $3.67{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$으로 GZO에 비하여 상대적으로 변화폭이 작다. 또한 ZTO의 두께에 따른 영향을 확인하기 위하여 ZTO를 2 scan, 4 scan, 6 scan 공정 진행 및 $500^{\circ}C$에서 열처리 후 ZTO, ZTO-GZO thin film의 비저항을 측정하였다. ZTO의 경우 $3.34{\times}10^{-1}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (2 scan), $3.62{\times}10^{-1}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (4 scan), $4.1{\times}10^{-1}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (6 scan)으로 큰 차이가 없으며, ZTO-GZO에서도 $3.73{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (2 scan), $3.42{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (4 scan), $3.67{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$ (6 scan)으로 큰 차이가 없음을 확인하였다. 염료감응 태양전지에 적용하여 기존에 사용되는 FTO대신에 ZTO-GZO를 사용하며, 가격적 측면, 성능적 측면에서 개선 가능할 것으로 생각된다.

  • A 30-kV plasma immersion ion implantation setup (P $I^3$) has been equipped with a self-developed 6'-magnetron to perform hard coatings with enhanced adhesion by P $I^3$D(P $I^3$ assisted deposition) process. Using ICP source with immersed Ti antenna and reactive magnetron sputtering of Ti target in $N_2$/Ar ambient gas mixture, the TiN films were prepared on Si substrates at different pulse bias and ion-to-atom arrival ratio ( $J_{i}$ $J_{Me}$ ). Prior to TiN film formation the nitrogen implantation was performed followed by deposition of Ti buffer layer under A $r^{+}$ irradiation. Films grown at $J_{i}$ $J_{Me}$ =0.003 and $V_{pulse}$=-20kV showed columnar grain morphology and (200) preferred orientation while those prepared at $J_{i}$ $J_{Me}$ =0.08 and $V_{pulse}$=-5 kV had dense and eqiaxed structure with (111) and (220) main peaks. X-ray diffraction patterns revealed some amount of $Ti_{x}$ $N_{y}$ in the films. The maximum microhardness of $H_{v}$ =35 GN/ $M^2$ was at the pulse bias of -5 kV. The P $I^3$D technique was applied to enhance wear properties of commercial tools of HSS (SKH51) and WC-Co alloy (P30). The specimens were 25-kV PII nitrogen implanted to the dose 4.10$^{17}$ c $m^{-2}$ and then coated with 4-$\mu\textrm{m}$ TiN film on $Ti_{x}$ $N_{y}$ buffer layer. Wear resistance was compared by measuring weight loss under sliding test (6-mm $Al_2$ $O_3$ counter ball, 500-gf applied load). After 30000 cycles at 500 rpm the untreated P30 specimen lost 3.10$^{-4}$ g, and HSS specimens lost 9.10$^{-4}$ g after 40000 cycles while quite zero losses were demonstrated by TiN coated specimens.s.

  • $K_2CO_3$-based dry regenerable sorbents were prepared by spray-drying techniques to improve mass produced $K_2CO_3-Al_2O_3$ sorbents (KEP-CO2P, hereafter), and then tested for their $CO_2$ sorption capacity by a $2,000Nm^3/h$ (0.5 MWe) $CO_2$ capture pilot plant built for Unit 3 of the Hadong thermal power station in 2010. Each of the sample sorbents contained 35 wt.% $K_2CO_3$ as the active materials with various support materials such as $TiO_2$, MgO, Zeolite 13X, $Al_2O_3$, $SiO_2$ and hydrotalcite (HTC). Their physical properties and reactivity were tested to evaluate their applicability to a fluidized-bed or fast transport-bed $CO_2$ capture process. The $CO_2$ sorption capacity and percentage utilization of $K_2CO_3$-MgO based sorbent, Sorb-KM2, was $8.6g-CO_2/100g$-sorbents and 90%, respectively, along with good mechanical strength for fluidized-bed application. Sorbs-KM2 and KT were almost completely regenerated at $140^{\circ}C$. No degradation of Sorb-KM by $SO_2$ added as a pollutant in flue gas was observed during a cycle test.

  • Multi-layer ceramic capacitors as decoupling capacitor were fabricated by dielectric composition with a high dielectric constant. The fabricated decoupling capacitors were embedded in the PCB of the 10G RF transceiver module and evaluated for the characteristics of electrical noise by the level of AC input voltage. In order to further improve the electrical properties of the $BaTiO_3$ based composite, glass frit, MgO, $Y_2O_3$, $Mn_3O$, $V_2O_5$, $BaCO_3$, $SiO_2$, and $Al_2O_3$ were used as additives. The electrical properties of the composites were determined by various amounts of additives and optimum sintering temperature. As a result of the optimized composite, it was possible to obtain a density of $5.77g/cm^3$, a dielectric constant of 1994, and an insulation resistance of $2.91{\times}10^{12}{\Omega}$ at an additive content of 5wt% and a sintering temperature of $1250^{\circ}C$. After forming a $2.5{\mu}m$ green sheet using the doctor blade method, a total of 77 layers were laminated and sintered at $1180^{\circ}C$. A decoupling capacitor with a size of $0.6mm(W){\times}0.3mm(L){\times}0.3mm(T)$ (width, length and thickness, respectively) and a capacitance of 100 nF was embedded using a PCB process for the 10G RF Transceiver modules. In the range of AC input voltage 400mmV @ 500kHz to 2200mV @ 900kHz, the embedded 10G RF Transceiver modules evaluated that it has better electrical performance than the non-embedded modules.

  • (Ba, Sr)TiO3 (BST)[1-3] 박막은 유전상수가 크고 고주파에서도 유전특성 저하가 적기 때문에 ULSI DRAM(Dynamic Random Access Memory)에 응용 가능한 물질로 최근 각광을 받고 있다. 하지만, 아직 BST 박막을 DRSM에 바로 적용하기 위해선 몇 가지 문제점이 있다. 그 중 누설전류 문제는 디바이스 응용시 매우 중요한 요소이다. 특히, DRAM에서 refresh time와 직접적인 관련이 있어 디바이스 내의 신뢰도 및 전력소모를 결정하는 주된 인자가 된다. 지금까지, BST 박막의 인가전업, 온도, 그리고 전극물질에 따른 누설전류 현상들이 고찰되었고, 이에 관한 많은 전도기구 모델들이 제시되었다. Schottky emission, Poole-Frenkel emission, space charge limited conduction 등이 그 대표적인 예이다. 하지만 아쉽게도 BST 박막의 정확한 누설 전류 전도 기구를 완전히 설명하는데는 아직 한계가 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 제작된 BST 커패시터 내의 기본적인 전기적 성질을 조사하고, 정확한 누설전류 기구 규명에 초점을 두고자 한다. 이를 위해 기존의 여러 기구들과 비교 분석할 것이다. 하부전극으로 사용하기 위해 스퍼터링 방법으로 p-Si(100) 기판위에 RuO2 박막을 약 120nm 증착하였다. 증착전의 chamberso의 초기압력은 5$\times$10-6 Torr이하의 압력으로 유지시켰다. Ar/O2의 비는 이전 실험에서 최적화된 9/1로 하였다. BST 박막 증착 시 5분간 pre-sputtering을 실시한 후 하부전극 기판위에 BST 박막을 증착하였다. 증착이 끝난 후 시편을 상온까지 냉각시킨 후 꺼내었다. 전기적 특성을 측정하기 상부전극으로 RuO2와 Al 박막을 각각 상온에서 100nm 증착하였다. 이때 hole mask를 이용하여 반경이 140um인 원형의 상부전극을 증착하였다. BST 박막의 증착온도가 증가하고 Ar/O2 비가 감소할수록 제작된 BST-커패시터의 전기적 성질이 우수하였다. 증착온도 $600^{\circ}C$, ASr/O2=5/5에서 증착된 막의 누설전류는 4.56$\times$10-8 A/cm2, 유전상수는 600 정도의 값을 나타내었다. 인가전압에 따른 BST 커패시터의 transition-current는 Curie-von Schweider 모델을 따랐다. BST 박막의 누설전류 전도기구는 기존의 Schottky 모델이 아니라 modified-Schottky 무델로 잘 설명되었다. Modified-Schottky 모델을 통해 BST 박막의 광학적 유전율 $\varepsilon$$\infty$=4.9, 이동도 $\mu$=0.019 cm2/V-s, 장벽 높이 $\psi$b=0.79 eV를 구하였다.

  • The elemental characteristics of atmospheric aerosols were investigated as a function of particle size and water solubility. The aerosol particles were samples at 12 individual size ranges between 0.01 and 30㎛. Collected aerosol particles were separated into both soluble and insoluble components. The concentrations of 15 elements in both components were determined by a PIXE analysis using a 2.0 MeV-proton beam. In general, the mass size distribution of particulate matter was represented as a bimodal distribution. The maximum rations of S in July and December were 5.5 and 3.8 %, and they appeared in the size range of 0.47∼1.17㎛(stage No. 6 or 7) . The ratios of a S at non-separated size were 3.1 and 2.2 % in July and December, respectively, On the other hand, the maximum rations of Si in July and December were 7.0 and 5.4% and they appeared in the size range of 5.1∼30㎛(stage No. 0∼2). The ratios of Si at the non-separated size were 2.1 and 1.8% in July and December, respectively, The mass diameter of 12 elements ranged between 0.59㎛ of S and 3.20 of Fe. More than 90% of atmospheric aerosols consisted of the light elements such as C, N, O, H and Al. The soluble component was dominant in the smaller size range and the insoluble component in the larger size range. Large portions of Si. Ti and Fe existed in insoluble state. By contrast, S, Cl, Ca, Zn and Br were dissolved in water.

  • Semiconductor thick film gas sensors based on tin oxide are fabricated and their gas response characteristics are examined for four simulant gases of chemical warfare agent (CWA)s. The sensing materials are prepared in three different sets. 1) The Pt or Pd $(1,\;2,\;3\;wt.\%)$ as catalyst is impregnated in the base material of $SnO_2$ by impregnation method.2) $Al_2O_3\;(0,\;4,\;12,\;20\;wt.\%),\;In_2O_3\;(1,\;2,\;3\;wt.\%),\;WO_3\;(1,\;2,\;3\;wt.\%),\;TiO_2\;(3,\;5,\;10\;wt.\%)$ or $SiO_2\;(3,\;5,\;10\;wt.\%)$ is added to $SnO_2$ by physical ball milling process. 3) ZnO $(1,\;2,\;3,\;4,\;5\;wt.\%)$ or $ZrO_2\;(1,\;3,\;5\;wt.\%)$ is added to $SnO_2$ by co-precipitation method. Surface morphology, particle size, and specific surface area of fabricated sensing films are performed by the SEM, XRD and BET respectively. Response characteristics are examined for simulant gases with temperature in the range 200 to $400^{\circ}C$, with different gas concentrations. These sensors have high sensitivities more than $50\%$ at 500ppb concentration for test gases and also have shown good repetition tests. Four sensing materials are selected with good sensitivity and stability and are fabricated as a sensor array A sensor array Identities among the four simulant gases through the principal component analysis (PCA). High sensitivity is acquired by using the semiconductor thick film gas sensors and four CWA gases are classified by using a sensor array through PCA.

  • 일반적으로 LED 제작에 사용되는 c-plane GaN는 c축 방향으로 발생하는 분극의 영향을 받게 된다. 분극은 LED내 양자우물의 밴드를 기울게 하여 그 결과 전자와 홀의 재결합 확률을 감소시켜 낮은 내부양자효율을 가지게 된다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위한 여러 가지 방법들이 제시되었는데 그 중에서도 특히 a-plane 혹은 m-plane면과 같은 무분극 면을 사용하는 GaN LED가 주목받고 있다. 그 이유는 무분극 면은 분극이 발생하는 c축과 수직이기 때문에 분극의 영향을 받지 않아 높은 내부 양자효율을 가질수 있다. 본 연구에서는 MOCVD 장비를 사용하여 2인치 r-plane 사파이어 기판위에 3um두께의 a-plane GaN을 성장하였다. 그위에 2um정도로 Si을 도핑하여 n-type GaN 형성한후 단일 양자우물, 그리고 Mg을 도핑하여 p-type GaN을 성장하였다. 장파장대역의 a-plane LED의 특성을 알아보기 위해서 양자우물 형성시 In의 조성비를 높였다. 일반적인 포토리소그래피 공정과 Dry etching 공정을 사용하여 메사구조를 형성하였으며 Ti/Al/Pt/Au와 Ni/Au를 각각 n-type과 p-type의 전극 물질로 사용하였다. 제작된 LED의 특성을 파악하기 위해서 인가전류를 0부터 100mA까지 출력 스펙트럼을 측정하였으며 orange대역의 파장을 갖는 LED를 얻었다. 인가전류별 Peak 파장의 변화와 반측폭의 변화를 파악하여 장파장 대역의 a-plane LED의 특성을 확인하였다.
