Particle reinforced metal matrix composites(MMCs) via a centrifugal spray-cast deposition(CSD) process were fabricated by injecting second phase particles($Al_2O_3$<40${\mu}m$, W<17.3${\mu}m$) into copper melt on the atomizing disc. Compositing modes were investigated by combining microstructures and mathematical modeling between Cu droplets and the reinforced particles injected. The $Cu/W_P$ powders were shown that the W particles penetrate and get embedded in the Cu droplets. It is considered that the W particles composite preferentially in Cu melt on the atomizing disc. On the other hand, the $Al_2O_3$, particles did not penetrate into the Cu droplets on the atomizing disc but get attached in surface of Cu droplets during the flight. It is considered that the compositing may be attained in the flight distance which the relative velocity between Cu droplet and $Al_2O_3$, particle is maximum. The microstructure of the $Cu/W_P$ and the $Cu/(Al_2O_3)_p$ composite preform was strongly influenced by compositing modes of droplets, and after subsequent deposition it was comprised as it is called the dispersed type and the cell type of microstructure, respectively.

The W-Cu composite powders were synthesized from W and Cu elemental powders by ball-milling process, and their microstructural changes and sintering behaviors were evaluated. The ball milling process was carried out in a 3-dimensional mixer (Turbula mixer) using zirconic ($ZrO_2$) ball and alumina ($Al_2O_3$) vial up to 300 hrs. The ball-milled W-Cu powders revealed nearly spherical shape. Microstructure of the composite powders showed onion-like structure which consists of W and Cu shells due to the moving characteristic of Turbula mixer. The W and Cu elements in the composite powders milled for 300 hrs were homogeneously distributed, and W grain size in the ball-milled powder was smaller than 0.5 $\mu\textrm{m}$. Fe impurity introduced during ball milling process was very low as of 0.001 wt%. The relative sintered density of ball-milled W-Cu specimens reached about 94% after sintering at $1100^{\circ}C$.

반도체 공정에서 기존 금속배선으로 사용되던 Al을 대체하여 사용되는 금속배선으로는 Cu가 그 대안으로 인식되고 있다. 이는 비저항값이 Al ($2.66{\mu}{\Omega}$-cm)보다 Cu ($1.67{\mu}{\Omega}$-cm)가 더 작아 RC 지연 시간 (RC delay time)을 극복하기 때문이다. 그러나 Cu의 녹는점은 $1085^{\circ}C$로 높지만 저온에서 쉽게 Si기판과 반응하는 특성을 가지고 있고, 또한 Si과의 접착력이 좋이 않는 것으로 알려져 있다. 이러한 이유로 Cu와 Si과의 반응을 방지하고 접착력을 높이기 위하여 확산방지막의 연구가 꾸준히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구그룹에서는 Cu의 확산을 방지하기 위하여 W-C-N의 확산방지막에 대하여 연구하여 왔다. 지금까지 보고된 연구 결과에 의하면 W-C-N (tungsten-carbon-nitrogen) 확산방지막은 고온에서도 Cu와 Si과의 확산을 효과적으로 방지하는 것으로 보고되었다. 이 논문에서는 W-C-N 확산방지막에 질소(N) 비율을 다르게 증착하여 지금까지 진행한 연구 결과를 기반으로 새로이 Cu의 전자거동현상(Electromigration)에 대하여 연구하였고, 고온 열처리 과정에서 박막의 표면강도 (Surface hardness)를 Nano-Indenter system을 이용하여 연구하였다. 이러한 연구를 통하여 박막내 질소가 포함된 W-C-N 확산방지막이 Cu의 전자거동에 더 안정적이며, 고온 열처리 과정에서도 표면 강도가 더 안정한 연구 결과를 획득하였다.

새로운 고성능 자심용 연자성 합금을 개발하기 위해, 급냉응고 방식에 의해 제조된 $Fe_{83-x}Al_{x}Nb_{5}B_{12}(X=1~5at%)$ 합금의 결정화거동 및 자기적 특성을 조사하였다. 3at% Al의 $Fe_{80}Al_{3}Nb_{5}B_{12}$ 합금이 조사된 Fe-Al-Nb-B계 합금중에서 가장 우수한 연자기 특성을 가지며, 이때 미세한 $\alpha-Fe$상 결정립 조직을 가지는 것으로 판명되었다. 또, 이 조성의 합금에 1 at%의 Cu를 첨가하면, 약 6~7 nm정도의 크기를 가지는 극히 미세한 결정립의 $\alpha-Fe$ 상조직이 얻어졌으며 이에 따라 대단히 현저한 연자기 특성의 향상이 실현되었다. 이때 초미세 결정구조 $Fe_{79}Al_{3}Nb_{5}B_{12}Cu_{1}$ 합금의 자기적 특성은 다음과 같다 : ${\mu}_{eff}(1\;kHz)=26,000,\;B_{10}=1.45\;T,\;H_{c}=25\;mOe,\;P_{c}(100\;kHz,\;0.2\;T)=55\;W/kg$.

Effects of Sc addition on microstructure, electrical conductivity, thermal conductivity and mechanical properties of the as-cast and as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc (x = 0, 0.25, 0.5 wt%) alloys are investigated. The average grain size of the as-cast Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg alloy is 2,334 ㎛; however, this value drops to 914 and 529 ㎛ with addition of Sc element at 0.25 wt% and 0.5 wt%, respectively. This grain refinement is due to primary Al₃Sc phase forming during solidification. The as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg alloy has a recrystallization structure consisting of almost equiaxed grains. However, the as-extruded Sc-containing alloys consist of grains that are extremely elongated in the extrusion direction. In addition, it is found that the proportion of low-angle grain boundaries below 15 degree is dominant. This is because the addition of Sc results in the formation of coherent and nano-scale Al₃Sc phases during hot extrusion, inhibiting the process of recrystallization and improving the strength by pinning of dislocations and the formation of subgrain boundaries. The maximum values of the yield and tensile strength are 126 MPa and 215 MPa for the as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-0.25Sc alloy, respectively. The increase in strength is probably due to the existence of nano-scale Al₃Sc precipitates and dense Al₂Cu phases. Thermal conductivity of the as-cast Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc alloy is reduced to 204, 187 and 183 W/MK by additions of elemental Sc of 0, 0.25 and 0.5 wt%, respectively. On the other hand, the thermal conductivity of the as-extruded Al-2Zn-1Cu-0.3Mg-xSc alloy is about 200 W/Mk regardless of the content of Sc. This is because of the formation of coherent Al₃Sc phase, which decreases Sc content and causes extremely high electrical resistivity.

$Cu-Ce/{\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ based catalysts were prepared and tested for selective oxidation of CO in a $H_2$-rich stream(1% CO, 1% $O_2$, 60% $H_2$, $N_2$ as balance). The effects of Cu loading and weight ratio(=Cu/(Cu+Ce)) upon both activity and selectivity were investigated upon the change in temperatures, It was also examined how the activity and selectivity of catalysts were varied with the presence of $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ in the reactant feed. Among the various Cu-Ce catalysts with different catalytic metal composition, Cu-Ce(4 : 16 wf%) /${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$ catalyst showed the highest activity(>$T_{99}$) and selectivities(50-80%) under wide range of temperatures($175-220^{\circ}C$). However, in the Cu-Ce(4 : 16 wt%)/ ${\gamma}-Al_2O_3$, the presence of $CO_2$ and $H_2O$ in the reactant feed decreased the activity and the maximum activity(>$T_{99}$) in terms of reaction temperature moved by about $25^{\circ}C$ toward higher temperature, the $T_{>99}$ window was seen between $210-230^{\circ}C$ (selectivity 50-75%). From $CO_2-/H_2O-TPD$, it can be concluded that the main cause for the decrease in catalytic activity may be attributed to the blockage of the active sites by competitive adsorption of water vapor and $CO_2$ with the reactant at low temperatures.

As power durable RF SAW filters, AL-(0∼2wt%)Cu alloy multi-layered thin electrodes were deposited on 42° LiTaO$_3$ piezoelectric substrates by magnetron sputtering process, and then ladder-type RF SAW filters, satisfying the electrical specification of CDMA transmission band, were fabricated through optimizing SAW resonator structures. The temperature of film electrodes in SAW filter was increased with RF power, and reached the maxima to cause a failure of SAW filters at the cut-off frequencies of the RF filter band. As RF power increases, the electrodes of Al-Cu alloy showed higher power durability than that of pure Al. The multi-layer laminated film of Al-1wt.% Cu/Cu/Al-1wt%Cu resulted in the best power durability up to 4W of RF power. Every film electrode, however, was destroyed within seconds whenever applying a critical RF power to SAW filters, regardless of the composition and structure of film electrodes. The breakdown of film electrodes under FR power seems to believe due to the fatigue of electrodes caused by repetitive cyclic stress of surface acoustic wave, which is amplified as RF power increases.

복기 추진제인 N-5 추진제에 4종의 금속선(Ag, Cu, Al, Ni-Cr선)을 삽입하여 연소 특성을 고찰하여 보았다. 금속선이 삽입된 복기 추진제의 연소속도 증가비($r_w$/$r_sb$)는 Ag선 > Cu선 > Al선 > Ni-Cr선의 순으로서 금속선의 열확산 계수의 크기 순과 일치하였다. 금속선을 삽입한 N-5추진제의 $r_w$/$r_sb$는 단열 불꽃 온도와 구조의 차이에 의하여 혼합형 추진제보다 작게 나타났다. 복기 추진제에 열확산 계수가 비교적 큰 Ag, Cu, Al선을 삽입한 경우, 금속선이 삽입되지 않은 추진제에서 나타난 plateau와 mesa 연소 특성이 사라진 반면 열확산 계수가 작은 Ni-Cr선을 삽입한 경우에서는 plateau와 mesa 연소 특성이 그대로 존재했다.

The biosorption and desorption of Cr, Cu and Al were carried out using brown marine algae Sargassum fluitans biomass, known as the good biosorbent of heavy metals. The content of alginate bound to light metals could be changed by physical and chemical pretreatment. The maximum uptake of Cr, Cu and Al was independent of the alginate content. The maximum uptaker of Al was two times(mole basis) than those of Cu and Cr. The aluminum-alginate complex was found in the sorption solution of raw and protonated biomass. Most of Cu, Al and light metals sorbed in the biomass were eluted at pH 1.1. However, only 5 to 10% of Cr sorbed was eluted at pH 1.1. The stoiceometric ion exchange between Cu and Ca ion was observed on Cu biosorption with Ca-loaded biomass. A part of Cr ion was bound to biomass as Cr(OH)2+ or Cr(OH)2+. Al was also bound to biomass as multi-valence ion and interfered with the desorbed Ca ion. The behavior of raw S. fluitans in ten consecutive sorption-desorption cycles has been investigated in a packed bed flow-through-column during a continuous removal of copper from a 35 mg/L aqueous solution at pH 5. The eluant used was a 1%(w/v) CaCl2/HC solution at pH 3.
