1차원 반도체인 nanowires (NWs)는 전기적, 광학적으로 일반 bulk구조와 다른 특성을 가지고 있어서 현재 많은 연구가 되고 있다. 일반적으로 NWs는 Au 등의 금속 촉매를 이용하여 성장을 하게 되는데 이때 촉매가 오염물로 작용을 해서 결함을 만들어서 bandgap내에 defect level을 형성하게 된다. 본 연구는 Si(111) 기판 위에 Ga-droplet을 촉매로 사용을 하여 molecular beam epitaxy로 성장을 하였다. 성장온도는 600$^{\circ}C$로 고정을 하였고 growth rate은 GaAs(100) substrate에서 2.5 A/s로 Ga의 양을 고정하고 V/III ratio를 1부터 8까지 변화를 시켰다. As의 양에 따라서 생성되는 NWs의 개수가 증가하고 growth rate이 빨라지는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. Transmission Electron Microscopy 분석 결과 낮은 V/III ratio에서는 zincblende, wurtzite 그리고 stacking faults 가 혼재 되어 있는 것을 확인 할 수 있었다. 이러한 결함은 소자를 만드는데 한계가 있기 때문에 pure zincblende나 pure wurtzite를 가져야 하는데 V/III ratio : 8 에서 pure zincblende구조가 되었다. Gibbs-Thomson effect에 따르면 구조적 변화는 Ga droplet과 NWs의 접면에서 크기가 중요한 역할을 한다[1]. 연구 결과 V/III ratio : 8일 때 Ga droplet의 크기가 zincblende성장에 알맞다는 것을 예상할 수 있었다. laser confocal photoluminescence 결과 상온에서 1.43 eV의 bandgap을 가지는 bulk구조와는 다른 와 1.49eV의 bandgap을 가지는 것을 확인하였다.

$RuO_2$ thin films were deposited on Si and Ru/Si substrates by rf magnetron reactive sputtering and annealed in oxygen atmosphere(1atm) to investigate their thermal stability and diffusion barrier property. $RuO_2$ thin films were thermally stable up to 700\ulcorner for 10min. in oxygen atmosphere and showed excellent barrier property against the interdiffusion of silicon and oxygen. After annealing at $750^{\circ}C$ , however, volatilization to higher oxide occurred at the surface and inside of $RuO_2$ thin film and diffusion barrier property was also deteriorated. When annealed at $800^{\circ}C$, $RuO_2$thin film showed a different microstructure from that of $RuO_2$ thin film annealed at 75$0^{\circ}C$. It is likely that surface defect structure of $RuO_2$, $RuO_3$, and excess oxygen had an influence on the mode of volatilization with increasing annealing temperature.

The demand for electric power is increasing every year. All facilities operating at power stations and all facilities used in transmitting high volumes of electric power are therefore expected to operate with a high degree of reliability. 6.6 kV XLPE 100 SQ 1C cables are used to deliver high levels of generated electric power. Depending on the method of manufacture, installation environment, and usage conditions, the deterioration processes of power cables start from the instant of operation. Cable junctions may break down in three years from the start of operation due to manufacturing or construction defects. We have invented the first device in Korea to monitor the status of live cables and installed these at Korea Western Power Co., Ltd.. We have set the criteria to determine deterioration status and specified the degree of deterioration at which one should replace the cables. In this paper, we present the effect of insulation layer and sheath on the insulation resistance status in cables.

The joint treatment of concrete is one of the technical problems in concrete constructions. Joints created with concrete constructions result in serious weakness in the aspects of both structural and water-barrier function. The radar and the infrared thermography method have been used for the non-destructive inspection of several construction joints of concrete structures in this study. The advantages and limitations of these methods are investigated for non-destructive inspection on construction joints of concrete columns. It can be shown that the detecting precision of construction joints using these methods is improved if radar analysis is carried out with a simulation analysis. In case of the infrared thermography method, the shape of construction joints can be also detected when heating is performed before testing. As the result, it has been verified that the construction joints, difficult to be detected by visual inspection, could be inspected effectively in broad areas at short period of time when these two methods are applied.

Block copolymers spontaneously assemble into various nanoscale structures such as spheres, cylinders, and lamellar structures according to the relative volumn ratio of each macromolecular block and their overall molecular weights. The self-assembled structures of block copolymer have been extensively investigated for the applications such as nanocomposites, photonic crystals, nanowires, magnetic-storage media, flash memory devices. However, the naturally formed nanostructures of block copolymers contain a high density of defects such that the practical applications for nanoscale devices have been limited. For the practical application of block copolymer nanostructures, a robust process to direct the assembly of block copolymers in thin film geometry is required to be established. To exploit self-assembly of block copolymer for the nanotechnology, it is indispensible to fabricate defect-free self-assembled nanostructure over an arbitrarily large area.

The change of the nitrogen-related centers and the color change of electron beam irradiated type Ia natural diamonds were studied. The irradiation of diamond with high-energy electron beam creates lattice defects which are neutral single vacancy $V^0$. It increased with increasing electron dose density. The B aggregation seems to produce vacancies more easily than the A aggregation, because diamonds with more B aggregation have more platelets, which are sufficient breakable size by electron beam. Greenish blue color of irradiated diamond is changed to darker with increasing electron dose density. GR1 centers with a zero-phonon line at 741 nm and phonon sidebands make transmit visible light at 530 nm and it moves to 500 nm with higher intensity of GR1 centers.

Sensor network applications need synchronized time extremely such as object tracking, consistent state updates, duplicate detection, and temporal order delivery. This paper describes reliable time synchronization protocol (RTSP) for wireless sensor networks. In the proposed method, synchronization error is decreased by creating hierarchical tree with lower depth and reliability is improved by maintaining and updating information of candidate parent nodes. The RTSP reduces recovery time and communication overheads comparing to TPSN when there are topology changes owing to moving of nodes, running out of energy and physical crashes. Simulation results show that RTSP has about 20% better performance than TPSN in synchronization accuracy. And the number of message in the RTSP is $20%{\sim}60%$ lower than that in the TPSN when nodes are failed in the network. In case of different transmission range of nodes, the communication overhead in the RTSP is reduced up to 40% than that in the TPSN at the maximum.

Defects such as voids or seams are frequently found in TSV via filling process. To achieve defect-free copper via filling, organic additives such as suppressor, accelerator and leveler were necessary in a copper plating bath. However, by-products stemming from the breakdown of these organic additives reduce the lifetime of the devices and plating solutions. In this research, the effects of levelers on copper electrodeposition were investigated without suppressor and accelerator to lower the concentration of additives. Threelevelers(janus green B, methylene violet, diazine black) were investigated to study the effects of levelers on copper deposition. Electrochemical behaviors of these levelers were different in terms of deposition rate. Filling performances were analyzed by cross sectional images and its characteristics were different with variations of levelers.

The largest problem in applying the elecbical partial discharge measurement method the transformer that has been operated until now is the removal of external corona noise In this thesis, a methcd was studied. to rneasme only fue partial discharge sIgnal due to the defoct in transfonrer except the external corona noise. To find out the types of partial discharge and corona noise within a transfomr, a partial discharge was made in use of a needle-plane electrodes within a model transfonner and, at the same time, an external corona noise was generated in use of a rod-sphere electrcdes in the air around the transformer. Both of a partial clischarge signal caused from an intemat defect within a transformer and an external noise were found at the rogowski coil which was located at transformer earth wire. When the external corona noise, which was separately measured in use of an antenna sensor out of transfonner, was removed from the signal measured on rogowski coil, the signal caused by partial discharge within a transformer would effectively be acquired.quired.

Network RTK is a precise positioning technique using carrier phase correction data from reference stations within the network, and is constantly being researched for improved performance. However, the study for the system accuracy has been performed but system integrity research has not been done as much as system accuracy, because network RTK has been mainly used on surveying for static or kinematic positioning. In this paper, adequate monitoring system for network RTK is designed as basis research for integrity monitoring on network RTK. To this, fault tree on network RTK is analyzed, and a countermeasure is prepared to detect and identify the each fault items. Based these algorithms, monitoring system to use on central processing facility is designed for network RTK service.
