The objective of this study was to investigate mineral precipitates, which derived from the zero valent iron (ZVI) corrosion during TCE dechlorination and to find the controlling factors in mineral precipitates. A series of column experiemnts were conducted to evaluate the location of ZVI and the effects of electrode arrangements in electro-enhanced permeable reactive barrier (E2PRB) systems. Based on mineralogical study, ZVI samples near the influent port had more lepidocrocite, ferrihydrite or Fe (oxy)hydroxide, and (phospho)siderite while backward samples had more akaganeite, magnetite/maghemite, and intermediate green rust (GR) I and GR II. A suite of mineral distribution was preferabley related to the dissolved oxygen and the increased pH. Controlling factors of mineral precipitates in an E2PRB system were found to be (1) pH, (2) dissolved oxygen, (3) the types of Fe intermediates, and (4) anionic species to form complex strongly.

Recently, many researches for fine particles plasma have been focused on the fabrication of the new devices and materials in micro-electronic industry, although reduction or elimination of fine particles was interested in plasma processing until now on. In order to enhance their utilization, it is necessary to control and analyze fine particle behavior. Therefore, we developed simulation model of fine particles in RF Ar plasmas. This model consists of the calculation parts of plasma structure using a two-dimensional fluid model and of fine particle behavior. The motion of fine particles was derived from the charge amount on the fine particles and forces applied to them. In this paper, Ar plasma properties using two-dimensional fluid model without fine particles were calculated at power source voltage 15[V] and pressure 0.5[Torr]. Time-averaged spatial distributions of Ar plasma were shown. The process on the formation of Coulomb crystal of fine particles was investigated and it was explained by combination of ion drag and electrostatic forces. And also analysis on the forces of fine particles was presented.

In this study, the resolution capabilities of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) in the monitoring of $CO_2$ injection are investigated. The pole-pole and bipole-bipole electrode configuration types are used between two uncased boreholes straddling the $CO_2$ plume. Forward responses for an initial pre-injection model and three models for subsequent stages of $CO_2$ injection are calculated for the two different electrode configuration types, noise is added and the theoretical data are inverted with both L1- and L2-norm optimisation. The results show that $CO_2$ volumes over a certain threshold can be detected with confidence. The L1-norm proved superior to the L2-norm in most instances. Normalisation of the inverted models with the pre-injection inverse model gives good images of the regions of changing resistivity, and an integrated measure of the total change in resistivity proves to be a valid measure of the total injected volume.

To verify reinforcing effect of grouting materials on the water leakage region in dike, we performed various hydraulic test and we also applied electric resistivity survey including electrical resistivity tomography(ERT) to see resistivity variation before and after grouting. As the results of dipole-dipole array survey along dike, resistivity distribution after grouting was without noticeable spatial variation. Long term resistivity monitoring results at dike with Schlumberger array electric resistivity survey showed that the decreasing region of apparent resistivity and one dimensional inversion results were the occupied region by grout after grouting. From the ERT using check holes to inspect the effect of grouting, we could find that the ERT is quite effective to evaluate spatially grout region in dike.

투명전극부터 디스플레이 산업에 이르기까지 광범위하게 응용되어지고 있고 개발되어지고 있는 투명전도산화물(TCO)은 ZnO, In2O3, SnO2 등을 기본으로 하는 n-type 재료가 대부분이다. 그러나 투명전도 산화물을 이용한 light emitting diode(LED), 투명한 태양전지, p-형 TFT와 같은 투명전자소자의 개발을 위해서는 p-type 소재가 필수적이다. p-type TCO 소재는 비교적 연구 개발 실적이 매우 부진한 실정이었다. 1997년 넓은 밴드갭을 가지는 ABO2(delafossite) 산화물이 p-type으로서 안정적이라는 것을 보고함에 따라 이에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 현재 ABO2 형태를 가진 Delafossite구조 산화물이 가장 유망한 p-type 투명전도체 소재로 거론되고 있다. Delafossite 구조가 p-type 투명전도체에 적합한 결정구조인 이유는 밴드갭이 넓고 공유결합에 유리하기 때문이다. Delafossite구조는 상온에서 2종류의 polytype(상온에서 Rhombohedaral구조와 hexagonal 구조)이 존재하며 이들은 각각 3R 및 2H의 결정 구조를 가지고 있다. ABO2의 delafossite구조에서 Cu+의 배열은 c-축을 따라 Cu-O-Cr-O-Cu의 연속적인 층 구조로서 2차원연결로 보여 진다. 보고된 Cu- base delafossite구조를 가지는 재료들은 CuAlO2, CuGaO2, CuInO2 등 여러가지가 있다. 본 연구에서는 PLD를 이용하여 c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 성장된 delafossite구조인 CuCrO2박막의 특성을 알아보았다. p-type 특성을 위하여 CuCrO2에 Zn를 첨가하였으며 그에 따른 구조적 전기적 특성을 조사하였다. 성장온도와 산소분압을 $500{\sim}700^{\circ}C$, 0~10mTorr로 변화시켜 특성을 연구하였다. 성장온도 $700^{\circ}C$, 산소분압 10mTorr에서 c-plane 사파이어 기판위에 c-축 배향의 에피성장된 CuCrO2:Zn 박막을 얻을 수 있었다. Mg를 도핑함에 따른 p-type 특성보다 현저히 떨어지는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 동일한 조건임에도 특정한 이차상의 존재를 통해 도핑된 Zn의 위치를 추측할 수 있었다. 온도와 분압에 따른 결정성과 표면상태를 SEM을 통해서 확인하였다.

3D fluid based numerical modelling is done for a VHF multi hollow cathode array plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system. In order to understand the fundamental characteristics of it, Ar plasma is analyzed with a condition of 40 MHz, 100 Vrf and 1 Torr. For hole array of 6 mm diameter and 20 mm inter-hole distance, plasma is well confined within the hole at an electrode gap of 10 mm. The peak plasma density was $5{\times}10^{11}#/cm^3$ at the center of the hole. When the substrate was assumed at ground potential, electron temperature showed a peak at the vicinity of the grounded walls including the substrate and chamber walls. The reaction rate of metastable based two step ionization was 10 times higher than the direct electron impact ionization at this condition. For $H_2$, the spatial localization of discharge is harder to get than Ar due to various pathways of electron impact reactions other than ionization.

Pyroelectric infrared detectors based on La-modified $PbTiO_{3}$ (PLT) thin films have been fabricated by RF magnetron sputtering and rnicrornachining technology. The detectors form $Pb_{l-x}La_{x}Ti_{1-x/4}O_{3}$ (x=0.05) thin film ferroelectric capacitors epitaxially grown by RF magnetron sputtering on Pt/MgO (100) substrate. The sputtered PLT thin film exhibits highly c-axis oriented crystal structure that no poling treatment for sensing applications is required. This is an essential factor to increase the yield for realization of an infrared image sensor. Micromachining technology is used to lower the thermal mass of the detector by giving maximum sensor efficiency. Polymide is coated on top of the sensing elements to support the fragile structure and the backside of the MgO substrate is selectively etched to reduce the heat loss. The sensing element exhibited a very high detectivity D* of $8.5{\times}10^{8}cm{\cdot}\sqrt{Hz}/W$ at room temperature and it is about 100 times higher than the case of micromachining technology is not used. A sensing system that detects the position as well as the existence of a human body is realized using the array sensor.

Integrated-optic symmetric/asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers at $1.3{\mu}m$ wavelength were studied as sensing part for electric-field measurement system. The devices were simulated based on the BPM software and fabricated utilizing Ti-diffused $LiNbO_3$ channel optical waveguides and lumped-type electrodes. A half-wave voltage of $V_{\pi}$=6.6V and modulation depth of 100% and 75% for a symmetric structure were measured for 200Hz and 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth, respectively. By the way, almost half-maximum power transmission was observed for asymmetric interferometers with ${\pi}$/2 intrinsic phase difference. Expected experimental measurements were observed for 1kHz electrical signal bandwidth.

The present study may be summarized as follows. By means of a pole-pole electrical survey, major geological features, i.e, fresh rocks, fractured & weak & saturated rocks, fresh water bearing aquifer, were successfully delineated in the surveyed area of a granite region in Korea. The subsequent Schlumberger sounding and drilling confirmed the existence of the acquifer at 60 m depth as expected. But one more minor acquifer which does not show up in the resistivity depth section was met at 100 m depth. A simple forward modelling leads the authors to believe that any other electrode configuration, e.g., Wenner, Schlumberger, dipole-dipole, pole-dipole, would not detect the deeper aquifer. Under these circumstances, further studies remain to be done in connection with the spatial resolution in the vertical direction.
