The asymptotic problem of a semi-infinite conducting crack parallel to the poling direction in ferroelectric ceramics subjected to electric fields is analyzed. The main mechanism for the conducting crack growth behavior is thought to be ferroelectric domain switching leading to the development of a process zone around the crack. The shape and size of the switching zone is shown to depend strongly on the relative magnitude on the ratio of the coercive electric field to the yield electric field. It is shown that the crack growth can be either enhanced or retarded depending on the ratio of the coercive electric field to yield electric field.

전기장이 인가되고 있는 유로를 유동하는 전기유변유체의 기본성질을 파악하기 위 한 실험 및 해석적 연구를 수행하여 빙햄유체로서의 유효성에 대해 알아보고 전기장과 유로 면 형상 및 진동유동으로 인한 영향에 대해 조사함으로써 ER밸브 및 ER대퍼로의 응용과 관련한 감쇄력 제어에 대해 검토하였다. 첫 번째 실험은 ER밸브의 높이가 2mm인 적극면이 평탄한것과 요철로 된 것을 사용하여 압력손실을 압력변환기로 측정함으로써 전기장 및 유 로형상에 대한 영향을 알아보았다. 압력손실 및 전단응력이 전기자세기와 함수관계를 가짐 을 알수 있었고 전기장세기와 유속의 변화시 손실계수에 의한 ER효과의 상이함이 확인되었 으며 레이놀즈수가 커지면 항복전단응력의 영향은 나타나지 않았다. 두 번째 실험은 실린더 를 정현파로 진동시켜 ER밸브에서 감쇠력제어가 가능한가를 알아보고 빙햄유체모델로 설계 된 ER댐퍼의 모델과 비교하였다. ER배르와 ER댐퍼의 수학적 모델을 시뮬레이션한 결과는 약간 벗어남이 보이기는 하나 실험결과와 일치하요 있다. 이것은 ER유체를 단순히 빙행유 체로 취급할수없으나 거시적으로는 빙햄유체로 취급할수 있음을 시사한다.

플라스틱 기판 위에 유도 결합 플라즈마 화학적 기상 증착장치 (Inductively Coupled Plasma Chemicai Vapor Deposition, ICP-CVD) 를 사용하여 실리콘 산화막 ($SiO_2$)을 증착하고, 엑시머레이저 어널링 (Excimer Laser Annealing, ELA) 과 $N_{2}O$ 플라즈마 전처리를 통해, 전기용량-전압(Capacitance-Voltage, C-V) 특성과 항복 전압장 (Breakdown Voltage Field) 과 같은 전기적 특성을 개선시켰다. 에너지 밀도 $250\;mJ/cm^2$ 의 엑시머 레이저 어닐링은 실리콘 산화막의 평탄 전압 (Flat Band Voltage) 을 0V에 가까이 이동시키고, 유효 산화 전하밀도 (Effective Oxide Charge Density)를 크게 감소시킨다. $N_{2}O$ 플라즈마 전처리를 통해 항복 전압장은 6MV/cm 에서 9 MV/cm 으로 향상된다. 엑시머 레이저 어닐링과 $N_{2}O$ 플라즈마 전처리를 통해 평탄 전압은 -9V 에서 -1.8V 로 향상되고, 유효 전하 밀도 (Effective Charge Density) 는 $400^{\circ}C$에서 TEOS 실리콘 산화막을 증착하는 경우의 유효 전하 밀도 수준까지 감소한다.

Electrorheological(ER) fluid is a material that shows the dramatic change of rheological properties under an electric field and responds reversibly in a few milliseconds. ER fluid's response to an electric field along with its fast switching capability allows ER devices to be precisely controlled. The real application with ER fluid, however, has many limitations to be overcome; temperature fluctuation, moisture, dust, aggregation, precipitation, and low yield stress, for example. The magnitude and the characteristics of yield stress of ER fluid plays an important role in practical applications. In this research, a dynamic simulation on the squeezing flow of the ER fluid was carried out. Numerical simulation on isolated chains was performed to find out the effect of hydrodynamic and electrostatic force depending on the chain location, the squeezing rate, and the chain structure. Suspension model that is composed of a large number of particles was also investigated. The increase of normal stresses as well as the existence of a yield stress at an earlier stage could be observed, and the effective control of the normal stresses could be achieved at an optimal condition of the hydrodynamic force and the electrostatic force.

Domain switching effect on crack growth in ferroelectric ceramics under combined electric and mechanical loading is investigated. The shape and size of the switching zone is shown to depend strongly on the relative magnitude between the applied electric field and stress field as well as on the ratio of the coercive electric field to the yield electric field. The toughening mechanism is thought to be ferroelectric domain switching leading to the development of a process zone around the crack. Crack-tip stress intensity factor induced by domain switching for the steady state crack growth is numerically obtained.

In this paper, We analyzed the current-voltage characteristics with n-type silicon substrates concentration and temperature variations (Room temperature, 5$0^{\circ}C$, 75$^{\circ}C$) in platinum silicide and silicon junction. Measurement electrical parameters are forward turn-on voltage, reverse breakdown voltage, barrier height, saturation current, ideality factor, dynamic resistance acceding to junction concentration of substrates and temperature variations. As a result, the forward turn-on voltage, reverse breakdown voltage, barrier height and dynamic resistance were decreased but saturation current and ideality factor were increased by substrates concentration variations. Reverse breakdown voltage and dynamic resistance were increased by temperature variations.

A crack in a ferroelectric ceramic subjected to an electric field is analyzed. The boundary of the electrical saturation zone is estimated based on the finite-width saturation zone model, which is analogous to a finite-width Dugdale zone model for mode III. It is shown that the shape and size of the switching zone depends strongly on the boundary of the electrical saturation zone and the ratio of the coercive electric field to the yield electric field. The crack tip stress intensity factor under small scale conditions is evaluated by employing the model of electric nonlinear domain switching. It is found that fracture toughness of the ferroelectric material may be increased or decreased depending on the material property of electrical nonlinearity.

A crack with growth in ferroelectric ceramics under purely electric loading is analyzed. The crack tip stress intensity factor for the growing crack under small-scale conditions is evaluated by employing the model of nonlinear domain switching. The crack tip stress intensity factor increases or decreases with crack growth, depending on the electrical nonlinear behavior and the direction of an applied electric field. It is shown that the ferroelectric material can be either toughened or weakened as the crack grows. The steady state crack growth in ferroelectric ceramics is also discussed.

This paper presents vibration control of a drive feeding system consisting of a new type of CD-ROM(compact discread only memory) mount using electro-rheologocal(ER) fluid. Chemically treated starch particles and silicon oil are used for ER fluid. and its field-dependent yield stresses are experimentally distilled under both the shear and the flow modes. On the basis of the yield stress, an appropriate size of ER CD-ROM mount adapted to conventional feeding system is designed and manufactured. Vibration isolation performance of the proposed mount is evaluated in the frequency domain and compared with that of conventional rubber mount. The ER CD-ROM mount is then installed to the drive feeding system and the system equation of motion is derived. Following the formulating the sky-hook controller, computer simulation is undertaken in order to evaluate vibration suppression of the feeding system subjected to various disturbances(excitations).
