A micro-conductive pattern was fabricated on an insulating substrate ($SiO_2$) surface using a laser direct writing method. In the LIFT process, when the laser beam irradiates a thin metal film, the photon energy is absorbed by the film and converted to thermal energy, and the thermal decomposition reaction produced by the resulting heat conduction forms a deposit on the substrate. The resistivity of the micro-electrodes deposited through LIFT process with and without polymer coating was measured. The results showed that the electric conductivity of the micro-pattern and micro-structure can be increased approximatly two times when the deposited micropattern is fabricated through a LIFT process with a polymer coating, compared to the case without a polymer coating.

In this research, magnesium hydroxide as a flame retardant agents and zinc borate as a synergist were mixed with LDPF/EVA blended samples, in order to improve their flame retardancy. We attempted to select the best mixing ratio of the LDPF/EVA blend and the optimum amount of magnesium hydroxide and zinc borate by the comparison and analysis of the flame retardancy, the electrical properties such as the volume resistivity and dielectric loss tangent, and the mechanical properties such as the tensile strength and elongation at break. Particularly, specimen which is the 6phr of zinc borate and 10phr of magnesium hydroxide 70/30phr adding to the LDPF/EVA blended samples has been most excellent in flame retardancy and electrical/mechanical properties.

We have fabricated high-T$_c$ superconducting YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}\;/SrTiO_3/\;YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO/STO/YBCO) multilayer structure on (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate by using pulsed laser deposition technique for applying to ground plane of single flux quantum digital circuits. In this structure, the top and bottom YBCO layers were connected through the holes in the STO insulating layer. The critical temperature of the two YBCO layers connected each other was 86 K after annealing at 500 $^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ atm for about 60 hr. This result shows that the annealing process is very important fabricating YBCO/STO/YBCO multilayer structure An experiment to optimize the fabrication process of YSCO/ST0/YBCO multilayer structure with good quality is in progress.

We designed and fabricated the planar graded-gap injector GaAs Gm diodes with $1.6{\mu}m$ active length for operation at 94 GHz. The fabrication of the Gunn diode is based on MESA etching, Ohmic metalization, and overlay metalization. The measured negative resistance characteristics of the graded-gap injector GaAs Gunn diodes are examined for two different device structures changing the distance between the cathode and the anode electrodes. Also, we discuss the DC results under the forward and the reverse biases concerning the role of the graded-gap injector. It is shown that the structure having the shorter distance between the cathode and the anode electrode has higher peak current, higher breakdown voltage, and lower threshold voltage than those of the larger distance.

A thin film oxide semiconductor micro gas sensor array which shows only 60㎽ of power consumption at an operating temperature of 30$0^{\circ}C$ has been fabricated using microfabrication and rnicrornachining techniques. Excellent thermal insulation of the membrane is achieved by the use of a double la! or structure of 0.1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick Si$_3$N$_4$ and 1${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ thick phosphosilicate glass(PSG) prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) and atmospheric－pressure chemical-vapor deposition(APCVD), respectively. The sensor way consists of such thin film oxide semiconductor sensing materials as 1wt.％ Pd-doped SnO$_2$, 6wt.% AI$_2$O$_3$-doped ZnO, WO$_3$ and ZnO. The thin film oxide semiconductor micro gas sensor array exhibited resistance changes usable for subsequent data processing upon exposure to various gases and the sensitivity strongly depended on the sensing layer materials. Heater Part of the sensor structure has been modified in order to improve the process yield of the sensor, and as a result of modified heater structure improved process yield has been achieved.

To achieve a high tunneling magneto resistance (TMR) of sputtered magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) with an MgO barrier, the annealing process is indispensable. The structural and compositional changes as consequences of the annealing greatly affect the spin-dependent transport properties of MTJs. Higher TMR could be obtained for MTJs annealed at higher annealing temperature. The diffusion of Ru, Mn and/or Ta in the MTJs may occur during annealing process, which is known to be detrimental to spin-dependent tunneling effect. The rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process was used for annealing the MTJs with synthetic antiferromagnets. To suppress the diffusion of Mn, Ru and/or Ta in the MTJs, the process time and temperature of RTA were minutely controlled.

Experiment on flexural analysis of RC beams strengthened with composite material panel is presented. Recently, the strengthening of reinforced concrete structures using advanced fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) composites, and in particular the behavior of FRP-reinforced concrete structure is topic that has become very popular because of good corrosion resistance and easy for site handling due to their light weight. In this study, an efficient computational analysis using ABAQUS to predict the ultimate moment capacity of reinforced concrete beams strengthened with FRP is presented. Test parameters in this study are the shape of fiber arrangement (LT, DB, DBT) and the number of carbon fiber sheets (2ply, 3ply). When comparing with results of the analytical model, results of the experiments show similar values. Furthermore, reinforced concrete beam with FRP obtains improved effects for ultimate strength.

The internal circuit of the bus-bar for an electrical switch board is a prime cause of electric shock and short circuit accidents due to the exposure of live parts. Electrical fires can also be caused by animals and foreign substances in the switchboard that connect the components with a difficult structure resulting in overheating due to an increase in contact resistance. Preventing these types of accidents is a prime concern in the manufacturing process, such as cutting and bending. In this study, the cutting bus bar of a switch board contained improved modules as a flame retardant that isolates a separate blocks to prevent such problems. This was implemented as a scalable and flexible means of reducing electrical switchboard hazards to offer a safe switch board bus-bar structure of a new connecter type

바이오 마이크로 시스템 및 바이오 MEMS 분야, 특히 실리콘을 기질로 하는 바이오 센서 제작에서 반도체 공정 기술은 센서의 대량 생산과 초소형화를 위해서 반드시 필요한 기술이다. 그러나, 감지전극의 마이크로화에 따른 센서의 감도 및 안정성 저하 문제는 해결해야 할 과제이다. 최근, 다공질 실리콘이 갖는 대면적이 실리콘 기질과 생체 고분자 (예: 단백질, 핵산 등) 간의 결합력을 향상시킬 수 있음이 알려지면서, 바이오 센서 분야에서, 새로운 형태의 드랜스듀서 재료로서의 다공질 실리콘에 대한 논의가 활발히 전개되고 있으며 또한, ISFET (Ion-Selective Field-Effect Transistors) 와는 달리 다공질 실리콘 층은 저항이 크기 때문에 센서 제작 과정에서의 부가적인 절연막을 필요로 하지 않는다. 본 연구에서는, 백금을 증착한 다공질 실리콘 표면에 전도성 고분자로서 Polypyrrole (PPy) 필름과 생체 고분자 물질로서 Urease를 각각 전기화학적으로 흡착하였다. 다공질 실리콘 층의 형성을 위해 테플론 소재의 전기화학 전지에 불산 (49%), 에탄올 (95%), $H_2O$ 혼합 용액을 넣고 실리콘 웨이퍼에 일정시간 수 mA의 산화 전류를 흘려주었으며, 약 $200{\AA}$의 티타늄 박막과 $200{\AA}$의 백금 박막을 RF 스퍼터링하여 작업 전극을 제작하였고, 백금 박막 및 Ag를 기화 증착하여 제작한 Ag/AgCl 박막을 각각 상대 전극과 기준전극으로 하였다. 박막 전극의 표면 분석을 위해 SEM (Scanning Electron Microscopy), EDX (Energy Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy) 등을 이용하였다. 제작된 요소 센서로부터 요소 농도 범위 0.01 mmol/L ${\sim}$ 100 mmol/L에서 약 0.2 mA/decade의 감도를 얻었다.
