This paper is concerned with the development of stacked ceramic thin actuation layer IDEAL (InterDigitated Electrode Actuation Layer) using d$_{33}$ actuation mechanism of piezoelectric ceramic. Most of the thin piezoelectric actuators are operated with d$_{31}$ actuation mechanism. Many kinds of piezoelectric ceramic actuators are strived now to improve the actuation performance. One of efforts to improve performance of piezoceramic actuators is the research trying to develop an actuator using the piezoelectric coefficient d$_{33}$ . The piezoelectric coefficient d$_{33}$ is almost twice larger than piezoelectric coefficient d$_{31}$ . Therefore, the induced strain of PZT thin layer with d$_{33}$ 3 actuation mechanism is bigger than that with d$_{31}$ actuation mechanism. The AFC(MIT) and LaRC-MFC$^{TM}$ which is developed by a research team of NASA Langley Research Center used d$_{33}$ actuation mechanism with surface interdigitated electrode to enhance its actuation performance. But their actuation mechanism is not perfect d$_{33}$ actuation mechanism since the interdigitated electrodes are placed at the surface of the actuation layer. In this research, the stacked ceramic thin actuation layer with imbedded interdigitated electrode is designed and manufactured. The actuation strain of stacked ceramic thin actuation layer is measured and compared with the actuation strain of the LaRC-MFC$^{TM}$. The comparison shows that the developed stacked ceramic thin actuation layer can produce 15% more actuation strain than LaRC-MFC$^{TM}$.> TM/.

In this study, the heat radiation performance of COB LED according to the structure of thermoelectric device were compared. Thermoelectric device of the sheet copper structure and ceramic structure were used for bonding with the heating part of the COB LED. The temperature distribution in the bonding part of the thermoelectric device of COB LED was measured with a contact-type thermometer. The temperature variation of the thermoelectric device was measured by inputting the currents of 0.1A, 0.3A, 0.5A, and 0.7A. When 0.7A was applied, the temperature of the bonding part where there was a heat aggregation phenomenon of the COB LED was $59^{\circ}C$ for thermoelectric device of the sheet copper structure and $67^{\circ}C$ for the thermoelectric device of the ceramic structure. Therefore, the sheet copper thermoelectric device whose temperature was lower by $9^{\circ}C$ showed better heat radiation performance than those of the ceramic structure.

Adhesion strength of single layer ceramic capacitor sheet was measured using a peel testing system developed in this study. The peel test specimens with various dimensions were prepared from the ceramic sheet cast on the PET film. In peel test, the sheet specimen was adhered on the glass jig floating on the liquid media, which was designed to minimize the friction, and the specimen was then pulled up by micro-actuator. During the separation of the sheet from the PET film, peel force was measured. To normalize the testing condition, 3 different widths of the specimen were selected: 5, 10 and 20 mm. was used Furthermore, testing speed effect was investigated in this study. From the resullts using various testing conditions, the standard method for the peel strength testing may be suggested. Based on the testing condition, effect of peel angle on the strength was experimentally examined. It was found that the adhesive strength for the ceramic sheet is nearly identical, irrespective of the specimen width ranged from 5 to 20 mm, while the adhesive strength was increased with increasing testing speed. Furthermore, the strength was shown to be dependent on the peel angle.

압전재료를 이용한 능동진동제어에 관한 연구동향과 연구결과를 살펴보았다. 능동 진동제어에 사용되고 있는 감지기/작동기들 중 압전세라믹은 몇 가지 장점을 지니고 있어 그 적용에 관한 연구가 활발하게 진행되고 있는 것이 현실이며 실제 구조 물로의 적용이 이루어지고 있다. 압전세라믹을 이용한 진동제어는 박판으로 이루어진 국부구조물의 진동제어에 적합하며 그래서 자동차의 진동소음제어, 위성체 태양판의 진동제어에 사용할 수 있고 또한 겹쳐놓은 형태의 압전세라믹은 트러스 구조물의 능동 멤버로 활용할 수 있다. 이렇게 겹쳐놓은 압전세라믹 구조는 진동 고립(vibration isolation)을 원하는 장비의 지지대로 사용할 수 있어 그 응용분야가 넓다. 최근까지 도 압전세라믹을 이용한 진동제어는 주로 외팔보, 또는 평판과 같은 단순한 기하학적 형상을 가진 구조물에 국한되어 연구가 진행되어 왔고 제어기법 또한 그동안 전기 제어분야에서 개발되어 온 기법들을 적용하는 현상을 보였는데 구조물의 자유도가 무한대임을 고려할때 앞으로 구조물에 합당한 제어기법의 개발이 요망된다고 하겠다. 이 논문에서 선보인 PPF와 SRF 제어 기법은 필자가 간단히 회로를 구성하여 실험을 수행하였는데 압전재료의 진동제어 기법으로 단순하면서도 효율적인 제어기법이라고 말할 수 있다. 압전재료를 이용한 진동제어에 관한 국내의 연구활동이 미미한 상태 이으로 이분야에 대한 연구자들의 관심을 모을 필요가 있다. 압전세라믹 감지기와 작동기의 설치는 그동안 압전세라믹 판을 직접 구조물에 접착시킨 형태로 진행되었 는데 새로운 형태의 압전세라믹 작동기의 개발이 시급하다. 이는 높은 전압을 필요로 하는 진동제어는 필수적으로 커다란 부대시설을 요구하게 됨으로 전압을 높이지 않고 도 진동제어를 효율적으로 할 수 있는 압전세라믹의 제조가 필요하다고 하겠다. 필자 는 이런 목적으로 다층 압전세라믹(multilayer piezoceramic plate)을 제작한 적이 있었는데 실험결과는 신통치 않았다. 또한 압전세라믹을 길고 얇은 조각으로 잘라 사용하는 방법로 있었으나 세라믹의 절단시 다이아몬드 컷터를 사용해야 되어 제작이 곤란했다. 또한 압전세라믹이 부서지기 쉬운점을 개선한다면 진동제어에 있어 아주 효과적인 감지기/작동기가 될 수 있을 것이다.

본, 논문에서는 카본/에폭시, PZT 세라믹 박판, 글래스/에폭시 층으로 이루어진 곡면형 복합재료 작동기(LIPCA)의 설계, 제작 및 성능실험에 대한 연구 성과를 제시하고 있다. LIPCA의 큰 요점은 기존 THUNDER의 성능을 유지하면서 이를 경량화 하기 위하여 THUNDER의 금속 층을 상대적으로 가벼운 섬유 강화 복합재료로 대체하는 것이다. 이러한 경량화 작업으로 LIPCA는 기존 THUNDER 보다 약 $30{\sim}40%$ 정도의 무게를 감소시킬 수 있으며, 복합재료의 특성에 따라 설계의 유연성을 가질 수 있는 장점이 있다. 또한, 에폭시 수지를 사용함으로써 접착제 없이 평판 몰드에서 오토클레이브에서 $177^{\circ}C$로 경화되어, 탈형된 후 충분한 곡률을 형성하였다. 작동 성능 실험에서, LIPCA는 기존 THUNDER보다 작동변위가 향상됨을 보였다.

Since the wall mobility of bubble magnetic materials havin g the large q (q=Kac/2$\pi$$M_s^2$) like a $YFeO_3$ has been found to be proportional to the wall energy theoretically crystallographical direction dependence of wall energy calculated by the basis on the spin configuration of the bubble wall which lies in the ac plane was compared with the crystallographical direction dependence of wall mobility which was measured by the experiment. The sample was a single crystal of $YFeO_3$ which was cut into plate normal to the C axis and polished t a thickness of about 60${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ The measurement of the wall mobility was carried out by optical system using the magneto-optic Faraday effect. From the good agreement of the crystallographical direction dependence of wall mobility and will energy it was found that the spin configuration of the bubble wall suggested is fair.

After adding 8Y-ZrO2 powders to 3Y-ZrO2 powders at ratios of 0, 33, 50, 67, and 100% by weight, the mixed yttria-stabilized zirconia specimens were fabricated into thin plate using tape~casting method and then sintered at 150$0^{\circ}C$ for 4h in air. The crystalline structure, microstructure and electrical properties of the sintered zirconia thin plates were investigated by using X-ray diffractometer, scanning electron microscope and impedance analyser, respectively. At the temperatures higher than 75$0^{\circ}C$, the sintered thin plate with 33% 8Y-ZrO2 content shows higher mechanical properties and lower electrical resistivity than 8Y-ZrO2 thin plate which is generally used as an electrolyte for solid oxide fuel cells. This is due to the fact that the zirconia thin plates with low 8Y-ZrO2 content maintain the slope of low temperature region up to high temperatures, whereas at temperatures higher than 50$0^{\circ}C$ the slope decrease in the zirconia thin plates with high 8Y-ZrO2 content.

The paper deals with a fully assumed strain soild element that can be used for modeling of thin sensors and actuators. To solve fully coupled field problems, the eledtric potential is regarded as a nodal degree of freedom in addition to three translations in an eighteen node assumed strain soild element. Therefore, the induced electric potential can be calculated for a prescribed load and the actuation displacement can be computed for an input voltage. Since the assumed strain solid element can alleviate locking. A finite element code is developed based on the formulation and typical numerical examples are solved for code validation. Using the code, we have conducted parametric study for THUNDER actuator. It is found that a particular combination of materials for layer curvature of THUNDER improves the actuation displacement.
