This study was carried on the phenomena in reactivity with the clay surface according to the thickness of the cobalt component coating. In the coated specimen, it was observed that the cobalt component was spreaded to diffuse with a constant thickness from the surface of it and the diffusion layer at the white porcelain soil was more increased with the increase of the amount of cobalt sulfate than at the celadon porcelain one. It was evaluated that the color of the surface on the coated specimen at the white porcelain soil was changed from grayish blue to blue and the $L^*$ value was decreased from 51.78 to 37.61 and also in the case of the coated specimen in celadon porcelain soil, $L^*$ value was from 53.91 to 38.93 and the color was from dark olive gray to dark gray. The physical properties of the specimen were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscope, Dilatometer, TG-DTA, UV-vis spectrophotometer and HRDPM.

In the hot section of a gas turbine, the turbine blades were protected from high temperature by providing a thermal barrier coating (TBC) as well as by cooling air flowing through internal passages within the blades. The cooling air then passed through discrete holes on the blade surface, creating a film of cooling air that further protects the surface from the hot mainstream flow. The holes are subjected to stresses resulting from the lateral growth of thermally grown oxide, the thermal expansion misfit between the constituent layers, and the centrifugal force due to high-speed revolution; these stresses often result in cracking. In this study, the deformation and cracks occurring near a hole on a heat-resistant alloy subjected to thermo-mechanical cycling were investigated. The experiment showed that cracks formed around the hole depending on the applied stress level and the number of cycles. These results could be explained by our analytic solution.

사파이어는 우수한 광학적, 물리적, 화학적 특성을 가지고 있는 물질 중의 하나이며, 청색 발광특성을 나타내는 GaN와 격자상수, 열팽창 계수가 가장 유사할 뿐만 아니라 가격도 상대적으로 저렴하기 때문에 GaN 성장을 위한 기판으로 사용될 수 있다. 실제로 사파이어는 프로젝터와 전자파 장치, 군사용 장비 등 다양한 분야에 응용되고 있으며, 발광 다이오드(LED)를 위한 기판으로 활용됨으로써 그 수요가 급격히 증가하고 있다. 그러나 사파이어 결정의 성장 중에 생길 수 있는 전위(dislocation)와 적층결함(stacking fault) 등의 결정 결함들은 결정 내에 존재하여 역학적, 전기적 성질에 큰 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 특히 사파이어가 청색 발광소자의 기판으로 사용되는 경우, 사파이어 기판 내부의 결정 결함은 증착되는 박막 특성에 영향을 미치게 된다. 따라서 사파이어의 보다 나은 응용을 위해서는 결정 결함에 대한 평가기술과 결함의 형성 메커니즘 등에 대한 이해가 필요하다. 특히, 결함의 정량적 평가 기술의 개발은 사파이어의 상용화에 중요한 핵심요소 중 하나이다. 결정을 산이나 염기 등을 이용하여 화학적 식각을 하게 되면 분자나 원자 간의 결합이 약한 부분이나 높은 에너지 상태에 있는 부분부터 반응을 하게 되는데, 이러한 반응을 통해 결정의 표면에 형성되는 것을 에치 피트(etch pit)라고 한다. 일반적으로 결정 내에 존재하는 전위는 높은 에너지 상태이므로, 이러한 에치 피트는 전위와 관련되어 있다. 따라서 사파이어 결정과 같은 결정질 물질은 표면의 식각을 통하여 관찰되는 에치 피트 등의 형상이나 반응성 등을 평가하여 결정 특성을 연구할 수 있다. 본 연구는 화학적 식각법으로 사파이어 결정의 특성을 평가하기 위하여 진행하였다. 사파이어 결정의 식각을 위하여 다양한 산-염기 용액들이 사용되었다. 식각 용액의 종류에 따른 사파이어 결정의 식각거동을 연구하고, 표면에 나타나는 형상을 연구하여 사파이어 결정의 구조적 특성을 파악하였다. 특히, 에치 피트 형성거동의 시간 및 온도 의존성에 관한 연구를 진행하였다.

We have investigated the structure and the conductivity of the $Cd_{1-y}Zn_{y}$ Te films evaporated on the glass substrates (Corning 7059) by Electron Beam Evaporator (EBE) in pressure of approximately $1 {\times} 10^{-6}$ torr.The structure temperatures were held at both room temperature and $300^{\circ}C$, and the samples have annealed for an hour at $300^{\circ}C$ The survace com-position of the as-prepared films were slightly different from those of CdZn Te source material.Cd losses on the CdZnTe surface was measured about 4% of atomic ratio at room temperature substrate, whereas Zn atomic ratio was nearly constant, relatively. The strure is observed to be polycrystalline whose phase is mainly cubic phase. Thermal expansion coefficient was $6.30 {\times} 10^{-5}/^{\circ}C$ which was calculated from the variation of lattice parameter by X-ray powder pat-terns measured at $400^{\circ}C$.Diffraction peaks were slightly increased by annealing for an hour at $300^{\circ}C $, but they werey highly affected by substrate temperature during evaporation.

A boundary layer integral combined with a 1-D isentropic core flow model has been successfully used to determine heat transfer rate on the surface of a supersonic nozzle. However its accuracy is affected by the core flow condition which is used as a boundary condition for the integral calculation. Because flow behavior near a nozzle throat deviates from 1-D isentropic condition due to 2-D flow turning and interaction between core flow and boundary layer, accuracy of heat transfer calculation decreases at a nozzle throat. Therefore, CFD is adopted to deduce improved core flow condition and increase accuracy of boundary layer integral at nozzle throat in this research. Euler model and SST $k-{\omega}$ model is solved by CFD code and used as a boundary condition for boundary layer integral. Developed code is tested in the supersonic nozzle from the previous research and improvement in accuracy is observed, especially at nozzle throat and diverging section of the nozzle. Error between experimental result and calculation result reduced by 16% when a calculation is made based on the SST $k-{\omega}$ model. Method developed in this research is expected to be used in thermal design of the rocket nozzle.

In this study, from January 2006 to February 2009, we observed 107 ice spikes formed in a natural state, and analyzed their environment. We developed an experimental device to reproduce ice spikes in laboratory and successfully made 531 ice spikes. We analyzed the process of the formation and the principle of how those ice spikes grow through videotaped data of the formation in the experiment. In the natural world, when the surface of water and the lower part of a vessel begin to freeze, a vent (breathing hole) develops at the surface where an ice is not frozen; this vent serves as the seed of an ice spike. It is assumed that the volume expansion of ice in the vessel which occurs when water freezes makes the supercooled water go upward through the vent and becomes an ice bar called an ice spike. In the laboratory, however, when distilled water is poured into an ice tray cube and kept in the experimental device for about one and a half hours at a temperature of -12- $-13^{\circ}C$, a thin layer of ice then begins to develop on the surface of the water, the vent is formed, and ice spikes form for about 10-30 minutes. These spikes stop growing when the end becomes clogged. Ice spikes can be described as falling into seven categories of shape, with the apex type topping the list followed by the slant type in the natural state and the vertical type predominating in the laboratory.

Firing characteristics, transverse rupture strength, and heat capacity were studied of the heat-reservoir refractory materials made of red-firing clay, mill scale, and water glass. The firing shrinkage increased with increase of the clay proportion in samples. The volume of fired bodies showed shrinkage by drying up to $300^{\circ}C$, steady expansion in the 300-$700^{\circ}C$ range due to phase transition of iron oxides. and drastic expansion above $1200^{\circ}C$. Flexural strength decreased from 5.6 Mpa to 2.35 Mpa with the decrease of the ratio of clay to mill scale from 1:1 to 1:3 Heat capacities changed from 1.1 Joul/g$^{\circ}$C to 1.35 Joul/g$^{\circ}$C with the ratio of millscale to clay ratio from 1:1 to 1:3. Mill scale in the specimen appears to exist as liquid phase during firing. Firing the specimens in air leads to the eruption of the molten mill scale to the sample surfaces. Contrarily, firing samples in a refractory sagger with a cover suppressed the eruption of the molten mill scale to the surfaces. The addition of mill scale gave rise to porous sintered bodies which would delay cooling rates of heat-reservoir brick.

Semiconductor packages are increasingly moving toward miniaturization, lighter and high performance. Futhermore, packages become thinner. Thin packages will generate serious reliability problems such as warpage, crack and other failures. Reliability problems are mainly caused by the CTE mismatch of various package materials. Therefore, proper selection of the package materials and geometrical optimization is very important for controlling the warpage and the stress of the package. In this study, we investigated the characteristics of the warpage and the stress of several packages currently used in mobile devices such as CABGA, fcSCP, SCSP, and MCP. Warpage and stress distribution are analyzed by the finite element simulation. Key material properties which affect the warpage of package are investigated such as the elastic moduli, CTEs of EMC molding and the substrate. Geometrical effects are also investigated including the thickness or size of EMC molding, silicon die and substrate. The simulation results indicate that the most influential factors on warpage are EMC molding thickness, CTE of EMC, elastic modulus of the substrate. Simulation results show that warpage is the largest for SCSP. In order to reduce the warpage, DOE optimization is performed, and the optimization results show that warpage of SCSP becomes $10{\mu}m$.

Graphite is used as a sample anode active material. However, since the maximum theoretical capacity is limited to $372mA\;h\;g^{-1}$, a new anode active material is required for the development of a high capacity lithium ion battery. The maximum theoretical capacity of Si is $4200mA\;h\;g^{-1}$, which is higher than that of graphite. However, it is not suitable for direct application to the anode active material because it has a volume expansion of 400%. In order to minimize the decrease of the discharge capacity due to the volume expansion, the Si was pulverized by the dry method to reduce the mechanical stress and the volume change of the reaction phase, and the change of the volume was suppressed by coating the carbon layers to the particle size controlled Si particles. And carbon fiber is grown like a thread on the particle surface to control secondary volume expansion and improve electrical conductivity. The physical and chemical properties of the materials were measured by XRD, SEM and TEM, and their electrochemical properties were evaluated. In this study, we have investigated the synthesis method that can be used as anode active material by improving cycle characteristics of Si.

사용후 핵연료의 건식처리 시 핵연료 다발을 절단하여 voloxidation 즉 휘발산화처리를 하면 고온에 의해 분리가 가능한 핵분열생성물의 분리와 우라늄의 산화에 의한 부피팽창으로 핵연료가 쪼개져서 입도가 작아지고 또한 핵연료가 피복재에서 쉽게 박리되게 된다. 그 결과 폐기물 처리 시에 발열핵종으로 폐기물의 저준위화시에 분리가 요망되는 Cs-137이 분리되는 장점이 있어 습식 재처리에 있어서도 바람직하다. 건식처리에 있어서는 voloxidation 으로 처리된 피복재에는 금속 지르코늄에 불순물로 함유된 우라늄의 의한 방사화 생성물과 피복재 표변에 부착/침투한 방사화 생성물이 방사능을 갖게 된다. 이러한 부착된 TRU 잔류물은 통상 1% 미만으로 알파핵종의 방사능이 원자로에서 배출시에는 고준위 기준치의 약 100배 수준이었다가 30년 냉각후에는 약 1/10 수준으로 저준위화 된다. 지르코늄 금속중에 불순물로 함유된 우라늄의 방사화로 생기는 방사능은 고준위 기준치의 10% 를 넘지 않아서 피복재의 저준위화시에 고려할 필요가 없다. 발생열은 방출시에 고준위 기준치의 약 30 배 수준에서 5년 냉각후에는 기준치 미만이 되며 30년후에는 1/8000 정도로 저준위화 된다. 사용후 핵연료를 습시처리시에 발생하는 고준위 폐기물 중 약 1/4 가 피복재 (hull) 임을 고려하면 피복재의 저준위화는 사용후 연료의 건식처리에 있어서도 필수적인 과정이다. 특히 미국의 고준위 폐기물 처분장 Yucca Mt.의 포기와 우리의 고준위 폐기불 처분장이 공론화되는 싯점에서 저준위화는 매우 필요한 기술이다. 피복재는 방사성 물질의 침투두께가 0.01mm 미만이 대부분으로 저준위화에는 표면제염에 의한 저준위화가 주로 연구되어왔다. 표면제염에 의한 저준화는 이온 빔, laser에 의한 방법, dry ice 분사에 의한 방법이 시도되었다. 염소기체를 이용하여 지르코늄의 산화막을 제거하고자 하였으나 이 산화막이 안정적이어서 표변의 연마, 아크릴 칼의 사용, 표면을 눌러서 처리하는 등 전처리하여서 염소기체 반응에 의한 표면제거 실험이 가장 효과적임이 실험적 결과이었다. 이러한 전처리로 방사능을 1/100 수준으로 낮춘다고 하더라도 지르코늄 금속중에 불순물로 함유된 우라늄의 방사화에 의해 중저준위 폐기물의 범주에서 벗어나지 않으므로 재활용에는 제한이 있다. 또한 전처리(표면제염)하여 분리되는 고준위는 다른 고준위 염폐기물과 함께 처리하여 발열 핵종을 제거하면 중저준위화가 가능하다. 저준위화 된 hull폐기물에는 지르코늄 금속에 불순물로서 함유되어있는 우라늄에 의한 방사능을 갖는데 이들의 제거나 분리는 지르코늄 합금 피복재 원료물질에 불순물로 함유하는 우라늄의 함량을 낮추는 것과 유사한 문제이다. 현재까지 지르코늄합금 피복재에 우라늄이 불순물로 함유된 것을 사용함으로 원자로내에서 방사화되어서 방사능을 갖게 되는 것은 피할 수가 없다. 따라서 저준위화 처리된 피복재는 장기 보관으로 방사능을 감쇠시켜서 재활용하도록 한다. 처리 방법으로는 초고압 압축저장, 시멘트 고화, 합성암석에 의한 고화법 등으로 장기간 보관 후에 금속으로서 재활용한다.
