In order to apply for transparent conductive oxide(TCO), we deposited ZnO thin film on the glass at room temperature by RF magnetron sputtering method. Deposition conditions for low resistivity were optimized in our previous studies. Under the deposition condition with the RF power of 800 [W]. Sheet resistance and surface roughness of ITO and ZnO thin film were measured by Hall-effect measurement system and AFM, respectively. The sheet resistance of ITO and ZnO thin film were 7.290 [$\Omega$] and 4.882 [$\Omega$], respectively. and surface roughness were 3.634 [nm] and 0.491 [nm], respectively. Green OLED was fabricated with the structure of TPD(400 [$\AA$])/Alq3(600 [$\AA$])/LiF(5 [$\AA$])/Al(1200 [$\AA$]). Turn-on voltage of green OLED applied ITO was 7 [V] and luminance was 7,371 [$cd/m^2$]. And, Turn-on voltage of green OLED applied ZnO was 14 [V] and luminance was 6,332 [$cd/m^2$].

Ti-6Al-4V alloy have been used for dental implant because of its excellent biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and mechanical properties. However, the integration of such implant in bone was not in good condition to achieve improved osseointergraiton. For solving this problem, calcium phosphate (CaP) has been applied as coating materials on Ti alloy implants for hard tissue applications because its chemical similarity to the inorganic component of human bone, capability of conducting bone formation and strong affinity to the surrounding bone tissue. Various metallic elements, such as strontium (Sr), magnesium (Mg), zinc (Zn), sodium (Na), silicon (Si), silver (Ag), and yttrium (Y) are known to play an important role in the bone formation and also affect bone mineral characteristics, such as crystallinity, degradation behavior, and mechanical properties. Especially, Zn is essential for the growth of the human and Zn coating has a major impact on the improvement of corrosion resistance. Plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) is a promising technology to produce porous and firmly adherent inorganic Zn containing $TiO_2(Zn-TiO_2)$coatings on Ti surface, and the a mount of Zn introduced in to the coatings can be optimized by altering the electrolyte composition. In this study, corrosion behavior of Ti-6Al-4V alloy after plasma electrolytic oxidation in solutions containing Ca, P and Zn were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), AC impedance, and potentiodynamic polarization test. A series of $Zn-TiO_2$ coatings are produced on Ti dental implant using PEO, with the substitution degree, respectively, at 0, 5, 10 and 20%. The potentiodynamic polarization and AC impedance tests for corrosion behaviors were carried out in 0.9% NaCl solution at similar body temperature using a potentiostat with a scan rate of 1.67mV/s and potential range from -1500mV to +2000mV. Also, AC impedance was performed at frequencies ranging from 10MHz to 100kHz for corrosion resistance.

박막형 CdTe/CdS 태양전지의 배면전극(back contacts)물질로서 Cu도핑된 ZnTe 박막(ZnTe:Cu)을 전착법(electroplating)으로 제조하는 연구를 수행하였다. Sulfate계의 전해질 수용액에서 CdTe 기판과 투명전극으로 코팅된 유리(In$_{2}$O$_{3}$: Sn, ITO)기판 위에 ZnTe 박막을 코팅하는 방법으로써 potentiostat와 기판(cathode), Pt counter electrode, Ag/AgCI 표준전극으로 구성된 장치를 사용하여 pH=2.5-4, T=70-8$0^{\circ}C$, 0.02M $Zn^{2+}$ 1x$10^{-4}$M TeO$_{2}$, 0.2M $K_{2}$SO$_{4}$조건에서 -0.800 Vs~-0.975 V 범위의 전압(V$_{a}$ )에 걸쳐 실험하였다. ITO박막을 기판으로 사용하여 cyclic voltammogram을 작성한 결과 약 -0.50 V 에서 Te환원 peak이 나타났다. Auger electron spectroscopy (AES)로 조성분석한 결과 표면에서 Zn signal이 강하게 나왔고 시편의 두께에 따라 Zn의 signal감소하는 반면 Cd signal은 증가하는 것이 확인되었다. SEM 사진으로부터 ZnTe의 표면이 작은 입자 (0.2$\mu\textrm{m}$ 이하)로 구성되어 있으며 낮은 V$_{a}$ 에서는 입자가 작아지면서 조직이 치밀해짐이 관찰되었다. Optical transmission방법에 의하여 ITO기판위에 입혀진 박막의 밴드갭은 2.5 eV으로 측정되었다. 수용액중의 Cu$_{2+}$와 triethanolamine(TEA)은 산성용액에서 착물형성이 이루어지지 않았으며 1,10-phenanthroline과는 pH=2에서도 착물이 형성되었다.

The purpose of this study is to determine the geochemical characteristics for the stream sediments in the Konyang area. So we can estimate the environment contamination and understand geochemical disaster. We collect the stream sediments samples by wet sieving along the primary channels and slowly dry the collected samples in the laboratory and grind to pass a 200mesh using an alumina mortar and pestle for chemical analysis. Mineralogy, major, trace and rare earth elements are determined by XRD, XRE, ICP-AES and NAA analysis methods. For geochemical characteristics on the geological groups of stream sediments, the studied area was grouped into quartz porphyry area, sedimentary rock area, anorthosite area and gneiss area.

The electrical properties, clamping voltage characteristics, and stability of dysprosia-doped ZnO-P $r_{6}$ $O_{11}$-based varistors were investigated with different dysprosia contents from 0 to 2.0 mol%. The incorporation of dysprosia in varistor ceramics greatly increased the varistor voltage from 50 to 481.0 V/mm. It was found that the dysprosia is good additive improving a nonlinearity, in which the nonlinear exponent is above or near 50, and the leakage current is below 1.0 $\mu$A. The dysprosia-doped varistors exhibited superior clamping voltage characetristics, in which clamping voltage ratio is above or neat 2 at surge current of 50 A. The 0.5 mol% dysprosia-doped varistors only exhibited high stability, with the rate of varistor voltage of -0.9%, under DC acceleraetd aging stress, 0.95 $V_{lmA}$/15$0^{\circ}C$/24 h.h.h.h.

최근 디스플레이 산업의 발전에 따라 고성능 디스플레이가 요구되며, 디스플레이의 백플레인 (backplane) TFT (thin film transistor) 구동속도를 증가시키기 위한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 트랜지스터의 구동속도를 증가시키기 위해 높은 이동도는 중요한 요소 중 하나이다. 그러나, 기존 백플레인 TFT에 주로 사용된 amorphous silicon (a-Si)은 대면적화가 용이하며 가격이 저렴하지만, 이동도가 낮다는 (< $1cm2/V{\cdot}s$) 단점이 있다. 따라서 전기적 특성이 우수한 산화물 반도체가 기존의 a-Si의 대체 물질로써 각광받고 있다. 산화물 반도체는 비정질 상태임에도 불구하고 a-Si에 비해 이동도 (> $10cm2/V{\cdot}s$)가 높고, 가시광 영역에서 투명하며 저온에서 공정이 가능하다는 장점이 있다. 하지만, 차세대 디스플레이 백플레인에서는 더 높은 이동도 (> $30cm2/V{\cdot}s$)를 가지는 TFT가 요구된다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 차세대 디스플레이에서 요구되는 높은 이동도를 갖는 TFT를 제작하기 위하여, amorphous In-Ga-Zn-O (a-IGZO) 채널하부에 화학적으로 안정하고 전도성이 뛰어난 SnO2 채널을 얇게 형성하여 TFT를 제작하였다. 표준 RCA 세정을 통하여 p-type Si 기판을 세정한 후, 열산화 공정을 거쳐서 두께 100 nm의 SiO2 게이트 절연막을 형성하였다. 본 연구에서 제안된 적층된 채널을 형성하기 위하여 5 nm 두계의 SnO2 층을 RF 스퍼터를 이용하여 증착하였으며, 순차적으로 a-IGZO 층을 65 nm의 두께로 증착하였다. 그 후, 소스/드레인 영역은 e-beam evaporator를 이용하여 Ti와 Al을 각각 5 nm와 120 nm의 두께로 증착하였다. 후속 열처리는 퍼니스로 N2 분위기에서 $600^{\circ}C$의 온도로 30 분 동안 실시하였다. 제작된 소자에 대하여 TFT의 전달 및 출력 특성을 비교한 결과, SnO2 층을 형성한 TFT에서 더 뛰어난 전달 및 출력 특성을 나타내었으며 이동도는 $8.7cm2/V{\cdot}s$에서 $70cm2/V{\cdot}s$로 크게 향상되는 것을 확인하였다. 결과적으로, 채널층 하부에 SnO2 층을 형성하는 방법은 추후 높은 이동도를 요구하는 디스플레이 백플레인 TFT 제작에 적용이 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

In order to understand its origin and petrogenesis, petrochemical studies of major, trace elements, REE, and stable isotopes of oxygen and carbon from the Hongcheon Fe-REE deposits have been investigated. The Hongcheon Fe-REE deposit intruding into Precambrian metasedimentary rocks consists of magnetite, various carbonates such as ankerite, siderite, magnesite and strontianite, monazite, aegirine-augite, Na-amphibole, and sulfides. Compared with major elements abundances of typical ferro-carbonatites, the Hongcheon Fe-REE deposit is enriched in FeO and depleted in CaO with increasing of $SiO_2$, where $TiO_2$and $A1_2O_3$increased and CaO, FeO, MgO and $P_2O_5$ are slightly decreased, but those are rather scattered and their trends are somewhat ambiguous. V Ni, U and Rb slightly increasing with of $SiO_2$increase and scattering or no trends of other detected elements. Nb, Zr and Zn are depleted then the abundances of typical ferro-carbonatites (Woolley and Kempe, 1989). In rare earth elements a large enrichment of total REE (maximum 14.8 wt%) and LREE relative to chondrites and HREE depleted more then the values of ferro-carbontites therefore La/Lu ratios shows large abundances (max. 16,197). The results of stable isotopes of O and C from minerals of ankerite and strontianite and whole rocks represent studied rocks are from igneous carbonatitic melts. Although petrochemical characteristics of the Hongcheon Fe-REE deposits are somewhat different from normal ferro-carbonatites from the world, this discrepancy suggests another conclusion that petrochemical characteristic of the studied Fe-REE mineralized rocks are similar to those of phoscorites from Kovdor, Russia and Sokli, Finland showing the same petrochemical compositions described above.

Synthesis of ZnCo₂O₃ oxide is performed by sol-gel method via nitrate-citrate route. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) study shows monoclinic unit cell having lattice parameters: a = 5.721(1) Å, b = 8.073(2) Å, c = 5.670(1) Å, β = 93.221(8)°, space group P_2/m and Z = 4. Average crystallite sizes determined by Scherrer equation are the range ~14-32 nm, whereas SEM micrographs show nano-micro meter size particles formed in ZnCo₂O₃. Endothermic peak at ~798 K in the Differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) trace without weight loss could be due to structural transformation and the endothermic peak ~1143 K with weight loss is due to reversible loss of O₂ in air atmosphere. Energy Dispersive X-ray (EDX) analysis profile shows the presence of elements Zn, Co and O which indicates the purity of the sample. Magnetic measurements in the range of +12 kOe to -12 kOe at 10 K, 77 K, 120 K and at 300 K by PPMS-II Physical Property Measurement System (PPMS) shows hysteresis loops having very low values of the coercivity and retentivity which indicates the weakly ferromagnetic nature of the oxide. Observed X-band EPR isotropic lineshapes at 300 K and 77 K show positive g-shift at g_iso ~2.230 and g_iso ~2.217, respectively which is in agreement with the presence of paramagnetic site Co²⁺(3d⁷) in the oxide. DC conductivity value of 2.875 ×10^-8 S/cm indicates very weakly semiconducting nature of ZnCo₂O₃ at 300 K. DRS absorption bands ~357 nm, ~572 nm, ~619 nm and ~654 nm are due to the d-d transitions ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→²E_g(²G), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴T_1g(⁴P), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴A_2g(⁴F), ⁴T_1g(⁴F)→⁴T_2g(⁴F), respectively in octahedral ligand field around Co²⁺ ions. Direct band gap energy, E_g~ 1.5 eV in the oxide is obtained by extrapolating the linear part of the Tauc plot to the energy axis indicates fairly strong semiconducting nature of ZnCo₂O₃.

REE, major and trace elements analyses of the Jurassic Daebo granite and Cretaceous Bulguksa granite were carried out to interpet their petrogenesis and relationships between petrogenesis and tectonics. Analytical results are summarized as follows. (1) $SiO_2$ content of the Bulguksa granite (aver. 74.6%) are significantly higher than those of the Daebo granite (aver. 68.1%). Major elements of $TiO_2$, $Al_2O_3$, $P_2O_5$, CaO, MgO, Total FeO, and trace elements of Co, V and Sr are negatively correlated with $SiO_2$. Incompatible elements such as Ba, Sr, Y, Zr and HREE are contained differently in the Bulguksa granites distributed in between Okchon folded belt and Kyongsang sedimentary basin. (2) Trace element abundances show a good discrimination between two goups of granitic rocks. Ba, Sr and V are enriched in Daebo granites, while Zn and Cr are depleted in them. (3) Jurassic granites have quite different Eu anomalies and REE patterns from those of Cretaceous granites: Large negative Eu anomaly in the former and mild or absent Eu anomaly in the latter. The large Eu negative of Cretaceous granitic rocks are interpreted as a differentiated product of fractional crystallization of granitic magma from the upper mantle. Meanwhile, the Daebo plutonic rocks was resulted from the partial melting of subcrustal material or crustal contamination during ascending granitic magma from the mantle. Senario of igneous activities of Mesozoic age in South Korea was proposed based on Kula-Pacific ridge subduction model.
