The feasibility of commercializing the hydrothermal synthesis of Na-A type zeolite from siliceous mudstone has been conducted using a 50-liter bench-scale autoclave and the application of the zeolite as an environmental remediation agent. Siliceous mudstone, which is widely distributed around the Pohang area, was adopted as a precursor. The siliceous mudstone is favorable for the synthesis of zeolite because it contains 70.7% $SiO_2$ and 10.0% $Al_2O_3$, which are major ingredient of zeolite formation. The synthesis of zeolite was carried out under the following conditions that had been obtained from the previous laboratory-scale tests: 10hr reaction time, $80^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature, $Na_2O/SiO_2$ ratio = 0.6, $SiO_2/Al_2O_3$ ratio = 2.0 and $H_2O/Na_2O$ ratio= 98.6. The crystallinity and morphology of the zeolite formed were similar to those obtained from the laboratory-scale tests. The recovery and cation exchange ion capacity were 95% and 215 cmol/kg, respectively, which are slightly higher than those obtained in laboratory scale tests. To examine the feasibility of the zeolite as an environmental remediation agent, experiments for heavy metal adsorption to zeolite were conducted. Its removal efficiencies of heavy metals in simulated waste solutions decreased in the following sequences: Pb > Cd > Cu = Zn > Mn. In a solution of 1500 mg/L total impurity metals, the removal efficiencies for these impurity metals were near completion (> 99%) except for Mn whose efficiency was 98%. Therefore, the synthetic Na-A type zeolite was proven to be a strong absorbent effective for removing heavy metals.

The Unsang gold deposit has been one of the three largest deposits (Daeyudong, Kwangyang) in Korea. The geology of this deposit consists of series of host rocks including Precambrian metasedimentary rock and Jurassic Porphyritic granite. The deposit consists of Au-bearing quartz veins which filled fractures along fault zones in Precambrian metasedimentary rock and Jurassic Porphyritic granite, which suggests that it is an orogenic-type deposit. Quartz veins are classified as 1) galena-quartz vein type, 2) pyrrhotite-quartz vein type, 3) pyrite-quartz vein type, 4) pegmatic quartz vein type, 5) muscovite-quartz vein type and 6) simple quartz vein type based on mineral assembles. The studied quartz vein is pyrite-quartz vein type which occurs as sericitization, chloritization and silicification. The white mica from stylolitic seams of laminated quartz vein occurs as fine or medium aggregate associated with white quartz, pyrite, chlorite, rutile, monazite, apatite, K-feldspar, zircon and calcite. The structural formular of white mica from laminated quartz vein is (K0.98-0.86Na0.02-0.00Ca0.01-0.00Ba0.01-0.00 Sr0.00)1.00-0.88(Al1.70-1.57Mg0.22-0.09Fe0.23-0.10Mn0.00Ti0.04-0.02Cr0.01-0.00V0.00Ni0.00)2.06-1.95 (Si3.38-3.17Al0.83-0.62)4.00O10(OH2.00-1.91F0.09-0.00)2.00. It indicated that white mica of laminated quartz vein has less K, Na and Ca, and more Si than theoretical dioctahedral micas. Compositional variations in white mica from laminated quartz vein are caused by phengitic or Tschermark substitution [(Al3+)VI+(Al3+)IV <-> (Fe2+ or Mg2+)VI+(Si4+)IV] and direct (Fe3+)VI <-> (Al3+)VI substitution. The structural formular of chlorite from laminated quartz vein is((Mg1.11-0.80Fe3.69-3.14Mn0.01-0.00Zn0.01-0.00K0.07-0.01Na0.01-0.00Ca0.04-0.01Al1.66-1.09)5.75-5.69 (Si3.49-2.96Al1.04-0.51)4.00O10 (OH)8. It indicated that chlorite of laminated quartz vein has more Si than theoretical chlorite. Compositional variations in chlorite from laminated quartz vein are caused by phengitic or Tschermark substitution (Al3+,VI+Al3+,IV <-> (Fe2+ or Mg2+)VI+(Si4+)IV) and octahedral Fe2+ <-> Mg2+ (Mn2+) substitution. Therefore, laminated quartz vein and alteration minerals of the Unsan Au deposit was formed during ductile shear stage of orogeny.

Theoretically, the dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) are high efficiency solar cells. However DSSCs have low power conversion efficiency (PCE) than silicon based solar cells. In this study, we use the phosphor materials, such as $Y_2O_3:Eu$ (Red), $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ (Green), $BaMgAl_{14}O_{23}:Eu$ (Blue), to enhance the PCE of DSSCs. Three phosphors were prepared and used as an effective scattering layer on the transparent $TiO_2$ with doctor blade method. We confirmed that the three scattering layers improve the PCE and Jsc due to the light harvesting enhancement via increased the scattering and absorbance in visible range. Under the sun illumination AM 1.5 conditions, the PCE of the mesoporous $TiO_2$ based DSSCs is 5.18 %. The PCE of the DSSCs with Y2O3:Eu, $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn$ and $BaMgAl_{14}O_{23}:Eu$ as scattering layer were enhanced to 5.66 %, 5.72% and 5.82%, respectably. In order to compare the optical properties change, DSSCs were measured by EQE, reflectance and PCE. At the same time, FE-SEM and XRD were used to confirm the structural changes of each layer.

Recently developed Plasma Display Panels (PDP) require phosphors of high luminance at Vacuum Ultraviolet (VUV) excitation. The present investigation developed new PDP phosphors using combinatorial chemistry method. We applied T $b^{3+}$ -activated yttrium gadolinium phosphates system to our combinatorial fine-tuning technique. As a result, the optimum composition was determined to be (G $d_{0.74}$ $Y_{0.11}$T $b_{0.15}$) $P_{1.15}$ $O_{\delta}$ through the two-step combinatorial screening process including excess phosphorous and Gd replacement. We found that the sample of the optimum composition shows a higher luminescence efficiency at VUV excitation and a shorter decay time than the commercially available Z $n_2$ $SiO_4$:Mn phosphor.

The geology of the Samdeok Mo deposit consists of Paleozoic Hwajeonri formation, Kowoonri formation, Suchangri formation, Iwonri formation, Hwanggangri formation, Cretaceous, leucocratic porphyritic granite and granitic porphyry. This deposit consists of three quartz veins that filled NS oriented fractured zones in Suchangri formation. Quartz veins vary from 0.05 m to 0.3 m in thickness and extend to about 400 m in strike length. Quartz veins occur as massive, breccia, and cavity textures. Wallrock alteration has silicification, sericitization, argillitization and chloritization. The mineralogy of the quartz veins consists of quartz, fluorite, white mica, biotite, apatite, monazite, rutile, ilmenite, molybdenite, chalcopyrite, Fe-Mg-Mn oxide and Fe oxide. White mica from Samdeok Mo deposit occurs as fine or coarse grains in quartz vein and hostrock and has four mineral assemblages (I type: quartz, molybdenite, Fe oxide and Fe-Mg-Mn oxide, II type: quartz, Fe oxide and Fe-Mg-Mn oxide, III type: quartz and biotite, and IV type: quartz). The structural formular of white mica from quartz vein is $(K_{0.89-0.60}Na_{0.05-0.00}Ca_{0.01-0.00}Sr_{0.02-0.00})_{0.94-0.62}(Al_{1.54-1.12}Mg_{0.36-0.18}Fe_{0.26-0.09}Mn_{0.04-0.00}Ti_{0.02-0.00}Cr_{0.02-0.00}Zn_{0.01-0.00})_{1.91-1.72}(Si_{3.40-3.11}Al_{0.92-0.60})_{4.00}O_{10}(OH_{1.68-1.42}F_{0.58-0.32})_{2.00}$, but white mica of I type has higher FeO content, and lower $SiO_2$ and MgO contents than white micas of other types. Also, compositional variations in white mica from the Samdeok Mo deposit are caused by phengitic or Tschermark substitution ($(Al^{3+})^{VI}+(Al^{3+})^{IV}{\leftrightarrow}(Fe^{2+}{\text{ or }}Mg^{2+})^{VI}+(Si^{4+})^{IV}$) and direct $(Fe^{3+})^{VI}{\leftrightarrow}(Al^{3+})^{VI}$ substitution.

Nitrogen fertilizer effectiveness on rice production was studied to evaluate the different forms and sources. Seven kind of nitrogen fertilizers were applied in two levels, 15 and 30 kg per 10a on Jinjubyeo (Japonica type) in silt loam paddy soil of pot cultivation. The results were summerized as follows; 1. pH in soils was decreased with enhancement of ammonium sulfate application in $NH_4-N$, but it was increased with times after nitric-acid application and PH change in soil was not remarkable when $NO_3-N$ with accessory component was applied. 2. $NH_4-N$ contents in soil were the lowest at 2 weeks after application in N 15kg/10a regardless of different sources of nitrogen fertilizer. $NO_3-N$, in N 30kg/10a, was decreased continuously until 4 weeks, while $NH_4-N$, Urea-N were at minimum during 2-3 weeks. 3. Growth of culm length and straw weight applied with AN (Ammonium Nitrate), AS (Ammonium Sulfate) and urea were superior to the form of nitrate. While NA (Nitric Acid), PN (Potassium Nitrate) and CN (Calcium Nitrate) plot of the $NO_3-N$ was the dominant fertilizers for root elongation. 4. Brown rice yields were increased dominantly by $NH_4-N$ application such as AS or AP than $NO_3-N$ pot. But the yields in case of $NO_3-N$ application CN, PN and NA were decreased. 5. N, P, Mg and Mn content of straw ranked the effectiveness of nitrogen forms as $NH_4-N$, Urea-N and $NH_4-N+NO_3-N$, while K, Ca and $SiO_2$ content of straw in $NO_3-N$ fertilizer plot were high while N, P, Mg, Mn, Fe and Mg were low. 6. Increament of nitrogen absorption in straw was stimulated by enhancement of phosphorous absorption and the growth and yield of rice plant were increased. Absorption of N, P, Ca and Mg was decreased by CN application. Absorption of N, P and Mg also was decreased by $NO_3-N$ application and N, P, Mg or Ca content were seemed to simulated the growth and yield of rice plant. 7. $SiO_2$, Zn and Fe contents of the root at harvest stage were higher than those of the straw. N, P, Mg, Mn, Zn and Fe contents were high in $NH_4-N$ and Urea treatment. While K, ca and $SiO_2$ contents, however, were high in $NO_3-N$ treatment.

수열법은 밀폐용기중에서 10$0^{\circ}C$이상의 가열, 가압된 수용액이 반응에 관여하는 것으로써, 수정, CaCO3, AlPO4, GaPO4 등과 같은 단결정의 육성 뿐만 아니라 균일분산계로부터 균일한 결정성의 미립자 합성에도 폭넓게 이용되고 있다. 세라믹분말의 합성에 있어서, 이 방법은 특히 형상, 입자크기의 제어가 용이할 뿐만 아니라 고상법, 졸-겔법, 공침법에서와 같은 열처리, 분쇄과정이 필요없기 때문에 고순도의 초미립자를 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있다. 근년 미국, 일본에서는 수열법을 이용한 유전, 압전체 등 세라믹분말의 일부가 공업적인 규모로 대량 생산되고 있다. 그러나 이에 대한 국내 기술은 아직 초기단계에 이르고 있는 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구실에서는 수열법에 의한 단결정 육성 (예; 자수정, CaCO3, AlPO4, GaPO4, KTP, Emerald 등), 박막제조 (예; GaP, PbTiO3, BaTiO3 등), 정제 (고령토, 장석, 도석 등), 원석처리 (진주, 인공 emerald, 비취 등) 그리고 각종 세라믹분말의 합성 등과 같은 다양한 기반기술의 축적과 동시에 공업화에 대응한 수열장치를 위하여 반응용기의 대형화, 엄밀한 밀폐방식, 실용적인 수열조건 등을 개발해 오고 있다. 본 발표에서는 현재까지의 연구개발 내용 중에서 결정성 미립자에 관련한 세라믹분말의 합성에 대한 일부의 결과들을 보고한다. 일반적으로 수열장치는 전기로, 반응용기, 온도 및 압력제어계 등을 기본으로 하고 있으며 시판용의 대부분이 교반기가 부착된 수직형 (vertical type)이다. 이와 같은 방식에 있어서는 엄밀한 밀폐가 곤란, 반응온도의 한계성 (25$0^{\circ}C$ 이하), 증진율의 한계성 (소량생산) 등과 같은 점이 있기 때문에 본 연구실에서는 개폐식 전기로내에 엄밀한 밀폐가 가능한 수평식(horizontal type)의 반응용기를 채택한 뒤 이를 회전 또는 시이소(seesaw)식으로 움직일 수 있도록 하여 연속공정화, 온도구배의 자율조절 그리고 보다 저온에서도 인위적인 이온의 확산을 효율적으로 유도할 수 있도록 하였다. 이와 같은 방식은 기존의 방식과 비교하여 반응용기 내에 응집현상과 미반응물이 존재하지 않으며 또한 단분산으로 결정성 미립자를 대량적으로 얻을 수 있는 장점이 있었다. 다음은 이상과 같이 본 연구실에서 자체 개발한 수열장치를 이용하여 PbTiO3, (Pb,La)TiO3Mn, BaTiO3, ZnSiO4:Mn, CaWO4 등과 같은 세라믹분말에 대한 합성 실험의 결과이다. 압전성, 초전성이 우수한 PbTiO3 및 (Pb,La)TiO3:Mn 분말의 수열합성은 PbO, TiO2, La2O3 등의 분말을 출발원료로 하여 합성도도 25$0^{\circ}C$부근의 알카리성 용액중에서 결정성 PbTiO3 및 (Pb,La)TiO3:Mn 미립자를 단상으로 얻었으며 입자의 형상 및 크기는 합성온도와 수열용매의 종류에 의존하였다. 유전체로서 폭넓게 응용되고 있는 BaTiO3 분말은 Ba(OH)2.8H2O, TiO2와 같은 최적의 출발원료를 선택함으로써 15$0^{\circ}C$ 부근의 저온영역에서도 용이하게 합성할 수 있었다. 특히 본 연구에서는 수용성인 Ba(OH)2.8H2O를 사용함으로써 host-guest적인 반응을 유도시키는데 있어 물의 가장 실용적이고 효과적인 수열용매임도 알았다. ZnSiO4:Mn, CaWO4, MgWO4와 같은 형광체 분말은 공업적으로 고상반응 또는 습식법에 의해 얻어지고 있으나 이들 방법에 있어서는 분쇄공정으로 인한 형광특성의 저하와 같은 문제점이 있다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 수열법을 이용하여 이들 화합물의 합성을 시도하였으며 그 결과 합성온도 30$0^{\circ}C$ 부근의 알칼리성 용액중에서 수열적으로 얻어짐을 알았다. 여기서의 합성분말을 이용하여 실제 조명램프로 제조한 결과 녹색, 청색 발광용 형광체로서 우수한 형광특성을 나타내었다. 천연에서 소량 산출되고 있는 고가의 (Li,Al)MnO2(OH)2:Co 분말은 도자기의 전사지용 청색안료로써 이용되고 있다. 본 연구실에서는 LiOH.H2O, Al(OH)3, MnO2 등의 분말을 출발원료로 하고 24$0^{\circ}C$ 온도 부근 그리고 물을 수열용매로 하여 천연산에 필적하는 (Li,Al)MnO2(OH)2:Co 분말을 인공적으로 합성하였다.

The bonding behavior of $SiO_{2}$ thin film and glass during VCR head fabrication was investigated, varying the surface roughness of substrate and the sputtering parameter. Insufficient fillings of grooves In the $SiO_{2}$ film with glass was postulated to give rise to the generation of bubble in the glass. The surface roughness of $SiO_{2}$ film was found to depend on that of substrate. The lower the deposition rate, the smoother the surface of film. The bubble free glass after bonding could be obtained using substrate polished with 0.05$\mu\textrm{m}$ $Al_2O_3$ powder under the sputtering condition of 10% oxygen pressure.

Granitoids in the Younggwang-Kimje area can be divided into two types of granite. One is foliated granite (Cheongup and Kochang foliated granites) developed along the NE-SW direction kwangju fault system and the other is undeformed granite (Kimje and Younggwang granites) developed in the western part of the area. $SiO_2$ content of study area, Younggwang granite is 62.8-74.0%, Kochang foliated granite is 64.5-74.4%, Cheongup foliated granite is 64.5-70.2%, Kimje granite is 63.4-72.0%. The result indicated that these granitoids belong to the intermediate and acidic rock. In Harker's diagram, as $SiO_2$ increases, $Al_2O_3$, $Fe_2O_3$, MgO, CaO, $TiO_2$> $P_2O_{5}$s and MnO decrease, but $K_2O$ increases. In AFM diagram, Younggwang granite, Kochang foliated granite, Cheongup foliated granite and Kimje granite belong to calk-alkaline rock series. And in triangular diagrams of normative Qz-Or-Pl and An-Ab-Or, they are located in granodiorite and granite region. On the co-variation diagrams of trace elements with silica, Ba, Co, Li, Nb, An, Rb elements show increasing patterns. The diagrams of ACF and $Na_2O$ vs. $K_2O$ ratios indicate that granitoids of the study area belong to I-type.
