  • ZnO films on $Al_2O_3$ substrates were grown using a pulsed laser deposition method. Through photoluminescence (PL) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements, the optimum growth conditions for the ZnO growth were established. The results of the XRD measurements indicate that ZnO films were strongly oriented to the c-axis of the hexagonal structure and epitaxially crystallized under constraints created by the substrate. The full width half maximum for a theta curve of the (0002) peak was $0.201^{\circ}$. Also, from the PL measurements, the grown ZnO films were observed to give free exciton behaviour, which indicates a high quality of the epilayer. The Hall mobility and carrier density of the ZnO films at 293 K were estimated to be $299\;cm^2/V\;s$ and $8.27\;{\times}\;10^{16}\;cm^{-3}$, respectively. The absorption spectra revealed that the temperature dependance of the optical band gap on the ZnO films was $E_g(T)\;=\;3.439\;eV\;-\;(5.30\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;ev/K)T^2(367\;+\;T)$.

  • A new and relatively simple equation for the soil water content-pressure head curve, ${\theta}$(h) is described in this paper. The particular form of the equation enables one to derive closed-form analytical expressions for the relative hydraulic conductivity, Kr, when substituted in the predictive conductivity models of Y. Mualem. Hopmans' equation is presented as an experimental method. The experienced method, $ET_a=K_sK_cET_o$ is introduced to estimate the actual evapotranspiration, $ET_a$(or $ET_c$). Using $ET_c$ and coil water data measured automatically in a weighing lusimeter, $K_s$ and $K_c$ values are estimated. Recently, FAO has introduced calculation procedures for the soil water(stress) coefficient, Ks in "Guidelines for computing crop water requirements".

  • We report plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy of $In_XGa_{1-X}N$ films on c-plane sapphire substrates. Prior to the growth of $In_XGa_{1-X}N$ films, GaN film was grown on the nitride c-plane sapphire substrate by two-dimensional (2D) growth mode. For the growth of GaN, Ga flux of $3.7{\times}10^{-8}$ torr as a beam equivalent pressure (BEP) and a plasma power of 150 W with a nitrogen flow rate of 0.76 sccm were fixed. The growth of 2D GaN growth was confirmed by $in-situ$ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) by observing a streaky RHEED pattern with a strong specular spot. InN films showed lower growth rates even with the same growth conditions (same growth temperature, same plasma condition, and same BEP value of III element) than those of GaN films. It was observed that the growth rate of GaN is 1.7 times higher than that of InN, which is probably caused by the higher vapor pressure of In. For the growth of $In_xGa_{1-x}N$ films with different In compositions, total III-element flux (Ga plus In BEPs) was set to $3.7{\times}10^{-8}$ torr, which was the BEP value for the 2D growth of GaN. The In compositions of the $In_xGa_{1-x}N$ films were determined to be 28, 41, 45, and 53% based on the peak position of (0002) reflection in x-ray ${\theta}-2{\theta}$ measurements. The growth of $In_xGa_{1-x}N$ films did not show a streaky RHEED pattern but showed spotty patterns with weak streaky lines. This means that the net sticking coefficients of In and Ga, considered based on the growth rates of GaN and InN, are not the only factor governing the growth mode; another factor such as migration velocity should be considered. The sample with an In composition of 41% showed the lowest full width at half maximum value of 0.20 degree from the x-ray (0002) omega rocking curve measurements and the lowest root mean square roughness value of 0.71 nm.

  • Recently, the demands for steel frame are increasing because of the trend and due to the demand for bigger and higher buildings. In the analysis of typical steel frame, connections are based on the idealized fixed or pinned connection. A fixed connection assumes that the relative angle of each member before deformation is the same after the transformation. Therefore, the stiffener reinforces the connection to sufficient rigidity and stability of the panel zone. In the economical aspect, however, the necessity of connection that the stiffener reinforcement has omitted is increasing due to the excessive production as well as labor costs of connection. In contrast, pinned connection is assumed that bending moments between the beams and columns do not transfer to each member. This is easy to make in the plant and the construction is simple. However, the structural efficiency is reduced in pinned connection because connection cannot transfer moments. The introduction of this semirigid process can decide efficient cross-sectional dimensions that promote ease in the course of structural erection, as performed by members in the field-a call for safety in the entire frame. Therefore, foreign countries exert efforts to study the practical behavior and the results are applied to criterion. This paper analyzes the semirigid connection of domestic steel by design specifications of AISC/LRFD and make data bank that pertain to each steel. After wards, the results are compared to those of idealized connection; at the same time, this paper presents a design method that matches economic efficiency, end-fixity, and rotational stiffness.

  • AlN 박막은 Al과 N원자의 부분적 이온결합 특성을 가진 공유결합을 한 육방정계의 wurtzite 경정구조의 화합물 반도체로서, III-V족 반도체 중 가장 큰 에너지 갭(6.2 eV), 결정 구조적 이방성, 화학 양론적 결합구조, 높은 탄성종과 전달속도(약 10$\times$106 m/s)와 높은 열전도도, 고온 안정성, 가시광성.적외선 영역에서의 좋은 투과성과 높은 굴절률, 상온 대기압에서의 유일하게 안정적인 특성을 가지고 있어, 절연재료, 내열재료, 저주파 영역 센서의 압전 트랜스듀서, 광전소자, 탄성파 소자 및 내환경 소자, MIS소자 등으로 주목받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 BAW 공진기의 활용을 목적으로 반응성 마그네트론 스퍼터링 방법으로 AIN 압전박막을 제작하여, 증착 조건-질소 농도, 고주파 출력, 전체 스퍼터링 압력, 기판 온도-에 대한 박막의 특성을 조사하였다. AlN 박막의 c축 우선 방위 결정성 및 낮은 투과성, 적당한 굴절률의 특성이 BAW 공진기의 활용을 위한 요건이므로, 각각의 증착 조건하에 제작된 박막은 XRD의 $\theta$/2$\theta$ 스캔 회절상에 의한 결정성의 분석과 우선 성장 결정면의 rocking curve 및 XRD로 측정한 FWHM과 표준 편차로 결정성의 배열성과 소자 응용가능성을 조사하였다. 박막의 표면.단면 미세 구조 및 평활도는 SEM으로 관찰하였으며, Al-N 결합 상태는 XPS와 FT-IR로 분석 조사하였다. 제작된 AlN 박막의 결정성 분석 결과, c축 우선 방위 성장을 위한 스퍼터링 압력에 대한 임계 질소 농도와 임계 스퍼터링 압력이 관찰되었다. 전체 스퍼터링 압력이 6~8 mTorr의 범위에서 나타난 최소 임계질소 농도는 10%, 최대 임계 질소 농도는 60%이며, 4 m Torr 이하 10 m Torr 이상의 전체 스퍼터링 압력에서 박막의 우선 방위성장이 제재된다. 이는 AlN 박막이 형성에 관여하는 질소 이온 양의 충분한 형성에 필요로 하는 질소 가스의 유입량에 따른 것으로 판단된다. AlN 박막의 c축 결정면인 (002) 결정면의 성장을 유도하며 다른 방향으로의 성장을 제어하여 소자 활용에 유용한 박막을 제작하기 위한 고주파 출력은 300W 정도가 적당하며, 기판을 가열하지 않았을 때 낮은 투과도를 나타낸다. 본 연구에 의한 BAW 공진기 활용을 위한 AlN 압전박막의 제작을 위한 최적 증착 조건은 기판의 가열 없이 6~8 mTorr의 전체 스퍼터링 압력에 20~25%의 질소종도, 300W의 고주파 출력이다. 최적 조건에서의 AlN 박막은 약 0.19$^{\circ}$의 FWHM과 약 0.08$^{\circ}$의 표준편차를 가지며, 균일하고 조밀한 표면 미세구조와 주상정 구조의 측면구조, 파장에 대한 약 2.0의 굴절률, 낮은 투과도와 화학 양론적 구조를 가지는 우수한 박막이 형성되었다.

  • Jurassic granite from Geochang was analysed with respect to the characteristics of the rock cleavage. we have mainly discussed the structual anisotropy formed by microcracks. The phases of distribution of microcracks were well evidenced from the enlarged photomicrographs(${\times}6.7$) of the thin section. The planes of principal set of microcracks are parallel to the rift plane and those of secondary set are parallel to the grain plane. These rift and grain microcracks are mutually near-perpendicular on the hardway planes. From the directional angle(${\theta}$) - total length($L_t$), number(N) and density(${\rho}$) chart, the curve patterns of the above microcrack parameters reflect the phases of distribution of microcracks. Microcrack parameters such as number, length and density show an order of rift > grain > hardway. These results indicate a relative magnitude of the rock cleavage. Meanwhile, brazilian tensile strengths were measured with respect to the six directions. The results revealed a strong correlation between mechanical property with the above microcrack parameters. These general results correspond to those of the previous study for Jurassic granites from Pocheon and Hapcheon. Image processing technique for the enlarged photomicrograph of the thin section was carried out. The grain 1(G1) microcrack arrays developed in quartz and feldspar grains show excellent distribution on the photomicrograph. In particular, the directional angle of each microcrack set can be ascertained easily by brief image processing for the above photomicrograph.

  • The dynamic softening mechanisms of AISI 316, AISI 304 and AISI 430 stainless steels were studied with torsion test in the temperature range of $900 - 1200^{\circ}C$ and the strain rate range of $5.0x10^{-2}-5.0x10^0/sec$. The austenitic stainless steels, such as AISI 316 and AISI 304 were softened by dynamic recrystallization (DRX) during hot deformation. Also, the evolutions of flow stress and microstructure of AISI 430 ferritic stainless steel show the characteristics of continuous dynamic recrystallization (CDRX). To establish the quantitative equations for DRX of AISI 316 stainless steel, the evolution of flow stress curve with strain was analyzed. The critical strain (${\varepsilon}_c$) and strain for maximum softening rate (${\varepsilon}^{*}$) could be confirmed by the analysis of work hardening rate ($d{\sigma}/d{\varepsilon}={\theta}$). The volume fraction of dynamic recrystallization ($X_{DRX}$) as a function of processing variables, such as strain rate ( $\varepsilon$ ), temperature (T), and strain ( $\varepsilon$ ) were established using the ${\epsilon}_c$ and ${\varepsilon}^{*}$. For the exact prediction the ${\varepsilon}_c,\;{\varepsilon}^{*}$ and Avrami' exponent (m') were quantitatively expressed by dimensionless parameter, Z/A, respectively. It was found that the calculated results were agreed with the experimental data for the steels at my deformation conditions. Also, we can reasonably conclude that the DRX, CDRX and grain refinement of stainless steels can be achieved by large strain deformation at high Z parameter condition.

  • Uniform nanofibers of polyurethane with different content of Juniperus Chinensis extracts (JCE) were successfully prepared by the electrospinning method. We investigated physiochemical properties of prepared compound nanoweb according to various concentrations of Juniperus Chinensis extracts using a Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer, X-ray diffractometer (XRD), thermogravimeter (TGA), and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The antibacterial activity of the JCE loaded PU nanofiber was conducted using the disk diffusion test against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. JCE was induced in the infrared spectra in the absorption band of PU/JCE nanowebs at $3,300cm^{-1}$, $2,960cm^{-1}$, $1,400-1,600cm^{-1}$, and $1,050cm^{-1}$. Thermal stability decreased with increasing JCE content in the PU/JCE nanowebs. The DSC curve of the PU nanoweb shows an endotherm peak at $420^{\circ}C$; in addition, the peak also became smaller and broader with increasing JCE content. The diffraction intensities of PU observed at 2 theta of $20^{\circ}$ decreased with the increasing amount of JCE in the compound nanoweb. In addition, the crystal intensities of the compound nanowebs also decreased along with the JCE content. Structural analysis indicates that JCE and PU are miscible. Juniperus Chinensis incorporated PU nanofibers demonstrated excellent antibacterial properties against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria.

  • We report the crystallographic and magnetic properties of $Ni_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}Ga_2S_4$ by means of X-ray diffractometer (XRD), a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) magnetometer, and a M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectroscopy. In particular, $Ni_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}Ga_2S_4$ was studied by M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer analysis for evidence of spin reorientation. The chalcogenide material $Ni_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}Ga_2S_4$ was fabricated by a direct reaction method. XRD analysis confirmed that $Ni_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}Ga_2S_4$ has a 2-dimension (2-D) triangular lattice structure, with space group P-3m1. The M$\ddot{o}$ssbauer spectra of $Ni_{0.3}Fe_{0.7}Ga_2S_4$ at spectra at various temperatures from 4.2 to 300 K showed that the spectrum at 4.2 K has a severely distorted 8-line shape, as spin liquid. Electric quadrupole splitting, $E_Q$ has anomalous two-points of temperature dependence of $E_Q$ curve as freezing temperature, $T_f=11K$, and N$\acute{e}$el temperature, $T_N=26K$. This suggests that there appears to be a slowly-fluctuating "spin gel" state between $T_f$ and $T_N$, caused by non-paramagnetic spin state below $T_N$. This comes from charge re-distribution due to spin-orientation above $T_f$, and $T_N$, due to the changing $E_Q$ at various temperatures. Isomer shift value ($0.7mm/s{\leq}{\delta}{\leq}0.9mm/s$) shows that the charge states are ferrous ($Fe^{2+}$), for all temperature range. The Debye temperature for the octahedral site was found to be ${\Theta}_D=260K$.

  • The structural characteristics of Antheraea yamamai and Antheraea pernyi silk were investigated by using x-ray diffraction method, IR spectroscopy and polarizing microscopy. The amino acid composition, fiber density, thermal decomposition temperature and glass transition temperature were also measured for relating these physical properties to the structure in comparison with those of Bombyx mori silk fiber. There was no significant structural difference between A. yamamai and A. pernyi silk fiber on an examination of x-ray diffraction curve and IR spectrum. Both of these wild silk fibers showed double diffraction peaks at the Bragg angle 2Θ16.7˚ and 20.5˚by x-ray diffraction analysis as well as IR absorption peaks for the bending vibration of specific groups related to ala-ala amino acid sequence. On the other hand, the x-ray diffraction curve and IR spectrum of Bombyx mori silk fiber are different from those of wild silk fibers, indicating different crystal structure as well as amino acid sequences. It showed under the polarizing microscope examination that the birefringence and optical orientation factor of wild silk fibers are much lower than those of B. mori silk. Also, the surface of degummed wild silk fibers was characterized by the longitudinal stripes of microfibrils in the direction of fiber axies. The amino acid composition, which is strongly related to the fine structure and properties, was not significantly different between these two wild silk fibers. However, the alanine content was somewhat less and polar amino acid content more for A. yamamai. As a result of fiber density measurement, the specific gravities of B. mori, A. pernyi and A. yamamai were 1.355~1.356, 1.308~1.311, 1.265~1.301g/㎤ in the order, respectively. The calculated crystallinity(%) was 64% for B. mori and 51~52% for wild silk fibers, which showed same trend by IR method in spite of somewhat higher value. The thermal decomposition behaviour was examined by DSC and TGA, showing that the degradation temperature was in the order of B mori, A. prernyi and A. yamamai at around 350$^{\circ}C$. It was also observed by TGA that the decomposition seems to proceed step by step according to their specific regions in the fiber structure, resulting the difference in their thermal stabilities. The glass transition temperature was turned out to be 220$^{\circ}C$ for B. mori, 240$^{\circ}C$ A. yamamai and 255$^{\circ}C$ A. pernyi by the dynamic mechanical analysis. It is expected that the chemical properties are affected by the dynamic mechanical behavior in accordance with their structural characters.
