This paper presents the experimental results measured by photoelastic 4-step phase shifting method for the isochromatic fringe distribution in a TV glass panel. In the conventional photoelastic method, the isochromatic fringe orders are measured manually point by point. The 4-step phase shifting method uses four images obtained from a circular polariscope by rotating the analyzer to $0^{\circ},\;45^{\circ},\;90^{\circ}$, and $135^{\circ}$. In order to use the 4-step phase shifting method, the elements of a polariscope should be aligned to isoclinic direction at a point and/or along a line where isochromatic fringe distribution is measured. Experimental results obtained from the 4-step phase shifting method are compared with those measured by the Senarmont compensation method. Both results are well agreed. Then, isochromatic fringe distributions in the TV glass panel that is heat-treated before and after are compared. Maximum and minimum isochromatic fringe orders in the TV glass panel with before- and after-heat treatment are changed approximately two times.

Material and electrical properties of copper-based ohmic contacts on n-type 4H-SiC were investigated for the effects of the post-annealing and the metal covering conditions. The ohmic contacts were prepared by sequential sputtering of Cu and Si layers on SiC substrate. The post-annealing treatment was performed using RTP (rapid thermal process) in vacuum and reduction ambient. The specific contact resistivity ($p_{c}$), sheet resistance ($R_{s}$), contact resistance ($R_{c}$), transfer length ($L_{T}$), were calculated from resistance (RT) versus contact spacing (d) measurements obtained from TLM (transmission line method) structure. The best result of the specific contact resistivity was obtained for the sample annealed in the reduction ambient as $p_{c}= 1.0 \times 10^{-6}\Omega \textrm{cm}^2$. The material properties of the copper contacts were also examined by using XRD. The results showed that copper silicide was formed on SiC as a result of intermixing Cu and Si layer.

The glass-ceramics containing bottom ash (B/A) which was a by-produced from an electrical power plant was fabricated and its crystalline phase, microstructure and mechanical properties were analyzed. At first, the glass was fabricated by adding modifier oxide $Li_2O$ to lower the melting temperature of coal bottom ash. The glass obtained was heat-treated by using a 2-stage process to crystallize, that is to say, to increase the degree of crystallization in the glass-ceramics, the first heat treatment for nucleation was performed followed by the secondary one for the growth of nucleates. The main crystalline phase formed in the glass-ceramics was ${\beta}$-spodumene and the secondary phase was $L_2SiO_3$. It was recognized that the degree of crystallization of glass-ceramics was increased with a holding time of the secondary heat treatment stage. In the case of the specimens hold up to 3 hour, the crystallization was not completed and the microstructures and morphologies of crystalline phase were not uniform. In the specimens of holding time over 9 hours, the cracks were generated inside of it, so its compressive strength would decrease due them. In conclusion, it was able to obtain the optimum condition to fabriate the glass-ceramics having the properties of high crystallization degree, uniform microstructures and morphologies and the high mechanical strength.

The effect of compression in the strain ageing of Ferrovac E iron has been examined with compressive testing following the prestrain in compression. Both prestraining and testing were preformed at room temperature with the strain rate of 1.9$\times$10$^{-4}$ se $c^{-1}$ and that of 0.95$\times$10$^{-4}$ se $c^{-1}$ , respectively. Ageing was carried out at several temperatures below 8$0^{\circ}C$ using thermostatically controlled oil baths with a temperature control within$\pm$1$^{\circ}C$. It was found that the rate of strain ageing obeyed the $t^{2}$3/ law up to about five hours ageing at 6$0^{\circ}C$. The rate was slower than theses reported in case of the tensile prestrained iron. Activation energy for strain ageing has been estimated as 21.5 Kcal/mole at tile first stage of the aging process. At the second stage of ageing where the $t^{2}$3/ law is still valid, however, the activation energy was somewhat decreased. The activation energy at the first stage of ageing was about 10% larger than published results on the tensile-prestraining. This difference between the activation energies is explained in terms of the residual stress field in lattice.

Tnermomechanical treatment consisting of homogenizing, hot and warm rolling were introduced to Al-MgCu-Mn alloys for obtaining superplasticity. The factors affecting the superplasticity of the alloys were investigated by optical and transmission electron microscopy. Large particles which had not been decomposed during homogenizing treatments remained stable in the hot and warm rolling processes. These particles were a source of cavitation and poor elongation in superplastic deformation. On the other hand, fine precipitates were produced during thermomechanical processing, and resulted in improvement of superplasticity by stabilizing microstructure. Two-step homogenizing and air cooling process was more effective than onestep homogenizing and furance cooling process in removing microsegregations and producing fine particles.

그라파이트 산화물(graphite oxide;G.O)는 그라파이트와는 다르게 물에서의 분산 능력이 뛰어나고 다양한 기판상에 단일 G.O layer를 형성할 수 있는 특성을 가지고 있으며, 유연(flexible)하고 투명(transparent)하기 때문에 다양한 전 자기 디바이스에 적용 가능하다. 특히, 최근 자성산화물 나노입자(magnetic oxide nanoparticles)에 대한 연구가 집중되고 있는데, 이러한 자성 나노입자와 G.O와의 복합체에 대한 연구는 다양한 분야로의 적용성에 대한 새로운 길을 열어주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 화학적 처리법을 적용하여 자성 나노입자(Co 나노입자)와 G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. Natural Graphite powder (N.G)에 $H_2O_4$ (98%) 및 $(NH_4)_2SO_4$를 적정 몰비로 첨가하여 반응 시킨 후 공기 중에서 열처리 공정을 수행하여 expanded graphite (E.G)를 제조 하였다. 열처리된 E.G를 $1,050^{\circ}C$ 온도에서 15~30초 및 30~60초 동안 공기 중에서 열처리 하여 expanded graphite oxide (E.G.O)를 제조하였으며, E.G.O와 $Co(acac)_3$의 화학적 반응을 통하여 Co 자성나노입자-G.O 복합체를 제조하였다. N.G, E.G, E.G.O 및 E.G.O+Co입자의 결정구조 분석을 위하여 XRD 측정을 수행하였으며, FTIR을 이용하여 각 단계에서의 반응성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 각 단계에서 표면 및 내부 미세구조 특성 분석을 위하여 SEM, TEM, 및 EDX 분석을 수행하였으며, E.G.O+Co 복합체의 자기적 특성 평가를 위하여VSM (vibrating sample magnetometer) 측정을 수행하였다. 이러한 연구 결과는 향후 자성나노입자와 그라핀과의 복합화를 위한 기저 기술로 활용가능하리라 판단된다.

Capacitance of a hybrid capacitor that has characteristics of both electrolyte capacitor and supercapacitor is determined by anode surface covered with oxide layer. In this study, optimal condition processes for anode to fabricate a high voltage hybrid capacitor was investigated. We mixed aluminum powder having mean particle size of $40{\mu}m$ with NaCl powders at weight ratio of 4 : 1 and prepared a disk type electrode after annealing at various temperature. After dissolving NaCl in $50^{\circ}C$ distilled water, heat treatment, eletropolishing, chemical treatment, and the first and the second etching of Al disk were conducted. In each process, capacitances and resistances of the disk measured by ac-impedance analyzer were compared to find its optimum treatment condition. Also, the surface morphology of treated disks were observed and compared by SEM. After the second etching, the Al disk was anodized at 365V to make an anode of hybrid supercapacitor that can be operated at 300V, Capacitance and resistance of the anodized Al disk electrode was compared with those of commercialized conventional aluminum electrolytic capacitor at different frequencies.

Shallow $p^{＋}$-n junctions were formed by preamorphization, low-energy ion implantation and dual-step annealing processes. Germanium ions were implanted into silicon substrates for preamorphization. The dopant implantation was performed into the preamorphized and non-preamorphized substrates using B $F_2$2 ions. Rapid thermal anneal (RTA) and furnace anneal (FA) were employed for dopant activation and damage removal. Samples were annealed by one of the following four methods; RTA(75$0^{\circ}C$/10s)＋Ft FA＋RTA(75$0^{\circ}C$/10s), RTA(100$0^{\circ}C$/10s)＋FA, FA＋The Ge Preamorphized sample exhibited a shallower junction depth than the non-preamorphized sample.

We have investigated the interfacial reactions in Co/Ti multilayer thin films prepared by DC Magnetron sputtering system. We observed that the amorphous Co-Ti phase formed by SSAR (Solid State Amorphization Reaction) upon annealing at $200^{\circ}C$. Upon annealing treatments at $300^{\circ}C\;and\;400^{\circ}C$, a crystalline phase of CoTi formed at the Co/Ti interface. The sheet resistance of Co/Ti multilayer thin film increased by the formation of the amorphous phase at the Co/Ti interface, which decreased by the formation of new crystalline compound CoTi.
