As iron corrosion by means of penetration of chlorides resulted in a serious deterioration of seaside and landfill concrete construction, it is urgently necessary for seaside construction to acquire watertightness and resistance for chloride-attack. Hence in this study, Si/Al liquor type hybrid-inorganic salt which was very effective compound for improving resistance for chloride-attack applied to mortar and then evaluated resistance for chloride-attack with curing(7, 14, 28, 56 days).

The dependance of degradation on the blue-peak wavelength is investigated with the blue light-emitting diode (LED) of InGaN/GaN with respect to the optical and the electrical characteristics of the devices. The LED devices emitting the blue-peak wavelength ranging from 437 nm to 452 nm is prepared to be stressed for a long aging time with three different currents of 60 mA, 75 mA and 90 mA, respectively. The degradation of optical intensity is observed with and without phosphor in the devices. The device without phosphor has been degraded significantly as the wavelength of blue-peak is decreased while the optical intensity of LED device with phosphor become less sensitive than that of device without phosphor. The electrical property does not depend on the emission peak wavelength. However, the series-resistance of LED device is slowly increased as the aging time is increased. The deformation of device is observed severely the short wavelength of blue-peak even with the same current since the short wavelength is absorbed substantially at the materials of device during the aging time. Consequently, in order to enhance the lifetime of LED devices, it is important to understand the optical degradation property of the materials against the specific wavelengths emitted from the blue chip.

we have demonstrated structural evolution and optical properties of Si-nanowires (NWs) synthesized on Si (111) substrates with nanoscale Au-Si islands by rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition (RTCVD). The Au-Si nano-islands (10-50nm in diameter) were employed as a liquid-droplet catalysis to grow Si-NWs via vapor-liquid-solid mechanism. The Si-NWs were grown by a mixture gas of SiH4 and H2 at a pressure of 1.0 Torr and temperatures of $500{\sim}600^{\circ}C$. Scanning electron microscopy measurements showed that the Si-NWs are uniformly sized and vertically well-aligned along <111> direction on Si (111) surfaces. The resulting NWs are ${\sim}60nm$ in average diameter and ${\sim}5um$ in average length. High resolution transmission microscopy measurements indicated that the NWs are single crystals covered with amorphous SiOx layers of ${\sim}3nm$ thickness. In addition, the optical properties of the NWs were investigated by micro-Raman spectroscopy. The downshift and asymmetric broadening of the Si main optical phonon peak were observed in Raman spectra of Si-NWs, which indicates a minute stress effects on Raman spectra due to a slight lattice distortion led by lattice expansion of Si-NW structures.

Along with the rapid development in digital times, image media are being used in internet, computer and digital camera. But image deterioration occurs due to various exterior reasons in the procedures of acquisition, processing, transmission and recording of digital image and major reason is noise. Therefore in order to remove salt & pepper noise, this study suggested the algorithm which replaces the noise to original pixel in case of non-noise, and processes the noise with Lagrange interpolation method in case of noise. In case high density noise was added and the noise could not be removed, noise characteristics were improved by processing the noises repeatedly. And for objective judgment, this method was compared with existing methods and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) was used as judgment standard.

In recent image processing, active researches have been made along with rapid development in digital times. However, it is know that the image degradation occurs due to various external factors in the processes of image data processing, transmission and storage, and the main reason of image degradation is due to the noise. Typical methods to remove the noise are CWMF(center weighted median filter), A-TMF(alpha-trimmed mean filter) and AWMF(adaptive weighted median filter) and these methods have a little bit lacking noise reduction characteristics in mixed noise environments. Therefore, in order to remove the mixed noise, image restoration filter processing algorithm was suggested in this paper which processes by applying the median value of the mask and space weighted value after noise judgment. And for the objective judgment, it was compared with existing methods and PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) was used as a judgment standard.

본 연구에서는 차세대 마이크로파 유전체 소자로서의 응용을 목적으로 펄스 레이저 방식에 의하여 증착된 MgTiO3 박막의 전기적 특성을 종합적으로 연구 분석하였다. 이를 바탕으로 MgTiO3 박막의 유전손실 등과 같은 열화를 야기시키는 박막 내부 또는 박막과 기판간의 결함의 특성을 파악하여 열화 메카니즘을 분석하였다. MgTiO3는 마이크로파 영역에서의 우수한 유전특성과 같은 낮은 유전손실을 가지며, 온도 안정성 또한 우수하다. 현재까지 벌크 세라믹 MgTiO3 의 응용 광범위하게 연구되어 왔으나 박막의 제조공정 및 전기적 특성 분석은 미흡한 형편이다. 따라서 벌크 세라믹과는 특성이 상이한 박막의 전기적 특성분석 및 연구가 필요하다. 분석을 위한 소자의 기본 구조로서 Metal-Insulator-Semiconductor(MIS) 구조를 채택하였다. MgTiO3 박막을 증착하기 위한 기판으로는 n형 Si(100)기판과 p형 Si(100)기판을 사용하였고, Si 기판 위에 급속 열처리기 (RTP)를 이용하여 SiO2를 ~100 두께로 성장시킨 것과 성장시키지 않은 것으로 구분하여 제작하였다. MgTiO3 박막은 펄스 레이저 증착 방식(PLD)에 의하여 약 2500 두께로 증착되었으며, 200mTorr 압력의 산소 분위기 하에서 기판의 온도를 40$0^{\circ}C$~55$0^{\circ}C$까지 5$0^{\circ}C$간격으로 변화시키며 제작하였다. 상하부의 전극 금속으로는 Al을 이용하였으며, 열증발 증착기로 증착하였다. 증착된 MgTiO3 박막의 결정구조를 확인하기 위하여 XRD 분석을 수행하였으며, 박막의 전기적 특성을 분석하기 위해 Boonton7200 C-V 측정기와 HP4140P를 이용한 경우에는 C-V 곡선에 이력현상이 나타났으나, MgTiO3/SiO2를 이용한 경우에는 이력현상이 나타나지 않았고, 유전율은 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. I-V 측정 결과, 절연층으로 MgTiO3/SiO2를 이용한 경우에는 MgTiO3만을 절연층으로 사용한 경우에 비해 동일한 전계에서 낮은 누설전류 값을 가짐을 알 수 있었다. 또한 박막의 증착온도가 증가함에 따라서 C-V 곡선의 위치가 양의 방향으로 이동함을 확인하였다. 위의 현상은 기판의 종류에 관계없이 발생하는 것으로 보아 벌크 또는 계면에 존재하는 결함에 의한 것으로 추정된다. 현재 C-V 곡선의 이동 원인과 I-V 곡선의 누설전류 메카니즘을 분석 중에 있으며 그 결과를 학회에서 발표할 예정이다.

Nowadays, the demand for multimedia services has grown with the rapid evolution in the digital era. But due to external causes in the process of processing, transmitting and storing image data, the images are damaged. One of the major causes of such damage is known to be noise. Some of the most commonly used methods for removing noise are CWMF(center weighted median filter), A-TMF(alpha-trimmed mean filter) and AWMF(adaptive weighted median filter). However, these filters all leave a bit to be desired in removing noise in a complex noise environment. Therefore this paper suggest an image restoration filter algorithm that first judges the noise and sets a adjustment weight based on the median value and distance of the mask to remove the complex noise. For an objective analysis, the results were compared against existing methods and the PSNR(peak signal to noise ratio) was used as a reference.

The magnetic properties of Nd-Fe-B alloys of containing 4 at.% Nd have been studied for the development of new type rare-earth magnets. The amorphous phase of a melt-spun $Nd_{4}Fe_{85.5}B_{10.5}$ alloy is transformed into the phases which have a small amount of $Nd_{2}Fe_{14}B_{1}$ in ${\alpha}-Fe$ matrix by annealing above their crystallization temperature. The addition of Mo, Nb, V or Cu to $Nd_{4}Fe_{85.5}B_{10.5}$ alloy results in the reduction of grain size and the sub¬sequent improvement of the coercivity. The coercivity of $Nd_{4}Fe_{82}B_{10}M_{3}Cu_{1}$(M = Mo, Nb, V) alloys increases in the order of M = V < Nb < Mo and shows the highest value of 2.7 kOe when M = Mo. On the other hand, the rem¬anence of these alloys shows the opposite trend and the rn>st improved value of 1.35 T is observed when M = V.

The rapid growth of digital media and communication networks has created an urgent need for self-contained data identification methods to create adequate intellectual property right(IPR) protection technology. In this paper we propose a new watermarking method that could embed the gray-scale watermark logo in low frequency coefficients of discrete wavelet transform(DWT) domain as the marking space by using our Linear Bit-eXpansion(LBX) interleaving of gray-scale watermark, to use lots of watermark information without distortion of watermarked image quality and particularly to be robust against attack which could remove a part of image. Experimental results demonstrated the high robustness in particular against attacks such as image cropping and rotation which could remove a part of image.
