An orthotropic magneto-rheological rubber composite (MRRC) based on a general-purpose rubber can be manufactured by using an electromagnetic device during the curing processes of rubber mixtures. The magnetic transmissivity of MRRCs increases with the iron particle (IP) content, and that of aligned MRRCs with a 2-T magnetic field is 1.8 to 2 times higher as compared to that of randomly dispersed MRRCs. The effect of a 2-T magnetic field on carbon nanotube (CNT) reinforced MRRC has been identified clearly, and the magnetic transmissivity is found to be 3.7%. The compressive stress of MRRC (IP 90 + CNT 5, 2 T alignment) under a magnetic field of 0.49 T is 2.1 times higher as compared to that of the matrix. The MR effect of MRRC increases with the IP content, and that of aligned MRRC with the IP 90 and 2 T magnetic field is 20.4%. It is confirmed that the magnetic field when making the specimen and when performing the compression test greatly impacts the compression characteristics.

Surface-enhanced Raman(SER) spectroscopy was utilized to investigate the adorption orientation of the 4-biphenylcarboxylic acid(BPCA) derivatives, such as 4'-cyano-BPCA(c-BPCA), 4'-mercapto-BPCA(m-BPCA), and 4'-amino-BPCA(a-BPCA), which were adsorbed on Au and Ag colloid monolayers. For the systematic approach, information regarding the adsorption behavior of benzoic acid, biphenyl, and BPCA was applied to the target molecules. From the spectral behaviors of benzene ring, C-H stretching, carboxylate anion, and the other finger printing vibrational modes, it was concluded that only the m-BPCA was adsorbed tilt with thiol group being adsorbed on Au surface, whereas the other molecules were adsorbed flat on both Au and Ag surfaces.

The growth characteristics on the MgO thin films prepared by the e-beam evaporation method have been investigated. We observed the film of preferred orientation and surface morphology with various parameters such as substrate temperature, deposition rate on Si(100) and slide glass respectively. Consequently, it was shown that MgO(111) preferred orientation films can be obtained as the deposition rate was increased on Si(100) substrate. MgO(220) peak was found as the substrate temperature was increased. Whereas, in case of slide glass the orientation is changed from (200) to (111) by substrate temperature. Also we investigated the relationship between the film characteristics and the orientation of MgO thin films.

This paper deals with anisotropic property and structural analysis for short fiber reinforced plastic composites manufactured by the injection molding process. The common approach for modeling this type of material is the consideration of the material as homogenous and isotropic. However, the common isotropy approach often results in unexpected failure. To overcome this, new structure analysis methodology was developed in order to consider fiber orientation effect using injection mold flow analysis and Halpin-Tsai equations for unidirectional composites and taking an orientation average. The numerical predictions are compared to experimental data for tensile specimen. The predicted mechanical properties agree well with experimental data for fiber orientation and weld line effect. The analysis system was also applied to an automobile part. The proposed anisotropic model predicted different mechanical properties by position of the part and different mechanical performance of the part was changed according to injection gate position.

The substrate for pyroelectric IR sensor which has orientation similar to MgO single crystal was fabricated by depositing the MgO thin film on $Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si. The MgO thin film was deposited by RF magnetron sputtering. The c-axis orientation of PLT thin film deposited on Pt/MgO(100)/$Si_3N_4/SiO_2/Si_3N_4$/Si substrate was investigated. The MgO thin film deposited at $500^{\circ}C$ at a gas pressure of 30 mTorr with RF power of 160 W exhibited a good a-axis orientation. The PLT thin films deposited on these substrates also exhibited c-axis orientation similar to the PLT thin films deposited on MgO single crystal substrate.

Long-fiber-reinforced composites have the advantages of cost-competitiveness and high degree of freedom of molding compared to continuous-fiber-reinforced composites. On the other hand, it is difficult to ensure uniform characteristics due to the randomly distributed fiber orientation incurred from the process of manufacturing intermediate materials. In this study, the effect of the directionality of LFPS (Long Fiber Prepreg Sheet) materials on the mechanical properties was analyzed. The eddy current measurement method was used to analyze fiber orientations, and tensile and compression tests on LFPS materials were performed according to ASTM standards. In addition, the test results and theoretical values of LFPS materials were verified using the ROM (rule-of-mixtures) theory. These results confirmed the effect of fiber orientation on mechanical properties of discontinuous-fiber-reinforced composites.

수열합성법을 이용하여 Si(111) 기판에 ZnO 박막을 성장하였다. ZnO 박막의 성장을 위한 씨앗층은 plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (PA-MBE)를 이용하였다. 씨앗층의 표면 거칠기(root-mean-square roughness)는 2.5 nm이고, 씨앗층 위에 성장된 ZnO 박막은 다양한 크기의 입자들로 이루어져 있었으며 두께는 약 $1.8{\mu}m$로 매우 일정하였다. 배향성을 알아보기 위하여 texture coefficient (TC)를 계산해 보았다. TC(100)과 TC(200)은 a-축 배향성을, TC(002)는 c-축 배향성을 나타내는데, c-축으로 더 우세한 배향성(99.5%)을 보였다. TC 비율(TCa-axis/TCc-axis)은 열처리 온도를 $700^{\circ}C$까지 올렸을 때, 점차적으로 증가하였고, 그 이상의 열처리 온도(< $900^{\circ}C$)에서는 급격히 감소하였다. 잔류응력과 Zn와 O의 bond length도 유사한 경향을 보였다. $700^{\circ}C$까지 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라, 잔류응력은 증가하였고 bond length는 감소하였다. Near-band-edge emission (NBE)의 피크 강도는 열처리 온도가 $700^{\circ}C$까지 증가함에 따라 점차적으로 증가하였다. 열처리 온도가 $800^{\circ}C$ 이상 증가함에 따라 deep-level emission (DLE)가 적색편이(red-shift)하였다. $700^{\circ}C$로 열처리를 한 ZnO 박막이 가장 우세한 (002)방향의 배향성을 보였을 뿐만 아니라 가장 큰 발광효율 증가를 보였다.

In rubbing process, process factors, the properties of alignment layer and the physical properties of rubbing cloth have acted as important variables. These factors affect the orientation properties of the alignment layer by rubbed extent that is determined by rubbing density and rubbing force. In this work, we studied the effects of rubbing cloths with different pile density and rigidity on rubbing density(length) and rubbing force. As the pile density and rigidity of rubbing cloths increased, the birefringence and the surface roughness of the rubbed alignment layers became bigger, but the characteristics of rubbing-effect had differed each other. The pile density of rubbing cloths which was related with the number of pile, affected the rubbing density(length). On the other hand, the pile rigidity of rubbing was closely related to rubbing force rather than the rubbing density(length).

The most important factor which determines resonance characteristics of FBAR(Film Bulk Acoustic Resonator) is the piezoelectricity of piezoelectric film. The piezoelectric properties of ZnO thin films which is strong as FBAR piezoelectric film is determined by the degree of c-axis preferred orientation with (002) plan. Therefore, many researchers have been interested in the study on the preferred orientation of the piezoelectric thin film. This paper has studied the preferred orientation of ZnO piezoelectric thin films using the helped seed layer of ZnO. The result shows that the c-axis ZnO thin films with columnar grains that the value of standard $deviation(\sigma)$ of XRD rocking curve is of $\sigma=1.15^{\circ}$ have the excellent piezoelectric property.

A homeotropic liquid crystal (LC) alignment state on rubbed fluorinated self-assembled monolayers (FSAMs) is described according to alkyl chain length. A simple procedure, gas-phase method, for the preparation of FSAM was used. The average optical transmittance in the visible light range of FSAMs were 76.63% to 78.21%, which were superior to the conventional polyimide layer having a transmittance of 75.89%. In addition, the excellent homeotropic LC alignment characteristics of FSAMs were observed through pretilt angle measurement and polarized optical microscope images. By measuring the contact angles and the surface energies of FSAMs, it was confirmed that pretilt angles of LC molecules increased according to the alkyl chain length. High optical transparency and uniform homeotropic LC alignment characteristics of FSAMs showed the possibility of FSAMs as an LC alignment layers.
