The microstructure and texture of TiN coatings on a Ni-based super-alloy were characterized by the automated version of electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD), EBSD techniques were used to investigate the very fine TiN grain shape and crystal orientation. This study confirmed that EBSD techniques provide a very useful tool for characterization of coating materials. The TiN grains had a special texture, a {001}-fiber texture in the coating layer. It was also found that, in severe environments, the coating performance of equiaxial and randomly oriented TiN is superior to that with columnar structures.

우리나라에서는 적조가 발생하면 적조발생 해역에 황토를 살포하고 있다. 황토가 살포되는 해역은 대부분 가두리 양식장 주변이며 매년 권장 살포량이상으로 대량 살포되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 지금까지 적조가 발생하여 매년 황토가 살포되어온 해역과 황토가 살포되지 않은 해역을 대상으로 추계(2008년 10월)와 춘계(2009년 4월)에 플랑크톤 네트에 의한 채집과 ADCP에 의한 체적산란강도를 계측하여 플랑크톤 분포특성과 플랑크톤의 분포밀도를 조사하였다. 황토를 살포하지 않은 해역에서 채집된 생물의 종수 및 단위체적당 개체수는 높았으나, 황토를 살포한 해역에서는 낮았다. 각 정점에서 채집한 플랑크톤의 종별, 체장별 개체수와 분포밀도의 평균치를 이용한 체적산란강도 $SV_c$와 ADCP에 의해 계측된 체적산란강도 $SV_m$를 비교해 본 결과, 황토를 살포하지 않은 해역의 $SV_c$와 $SV_m$는 거의 일치하였으나, 황토를 살포한 해역의 $SV_m$는 $SV_c$보다 4.3 dB 높았다. 즉 황토를 살포한 해역에서는 부유물이 ADCP에 크게 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인하였다. ADCP에 의해 계측된 체적산란강도의 수평분포도에서 체적산란강도는 황토를 살포한 해역이 황토를 살포하지 않은 해역보다 높았으며, 봄철이 가을철보다 높았다. 또한 체적산란강도 추정에 ADCP를 이용하면 채집에 의한 분포밀도의 과대 또는 과소평가를 방지할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

The objective of this study was to monitor and evaluate the schooling characteristics, including the distribution density (volume backscattering strength) and acoustic size (target strength), of commercially valuable species swimming in response to artificial reefs installed at Suyeong Man, Busan, Korea. Fish aggregations at two artificial reef areas and at a nearby natural rocky reef habitat were recorded and analyzed using a 70 kHz split-beam echo sounder and 330 kHz side-scan sonar from August to September, 2006. An underwater CCTV camera system was also used to observe marine organisms in physical contact with and swimming very close to artificial reefs. During the acoustic observations at three reef sites, useful information about schooling characteristics of fish aggregations responding to artificial reefs were obtained, but more trials are needed to confirm significant differences in schooling behavior and geographical distributions in areas containing natural reef structures and artificial reefs.

Vibration-based monitoring is one approach used to perform structural condition assessment. By measuring structural response, such as displacement, dynamic characteristics of a structure may be estimated. Often, the primary dynamic responses in civil structures are below 5 Hz, making accurate low frequency measurement critical for successful dynamic characterization. In addition, static deflection measurements are useful for structural capacity and load rating assessments. This paper presents a DC coupled continuous wave radar to accurately detect both dynamic and static displacement. This low-cost radar sensor provides displacement measurements within a compact, wireless unit appropriate for a range of structural monitoring applications. The hardware components and operating mechanism of the radar are introduced and a series of laboratory experiments are presented to assess the performance characteristics of the radar. The laboratory and field experiments investigate the effect of factors such as target distance, motion amplitude, and motion frequency on the radar's measurement accuracy. The results demonstrate that the radar is capable of both static and dynamic displacement measurements with sub-millimeter accuracy, making it a promising technology for structural health monitoring.

Diffusion of Cu into the low-k para-xylene based plasma polymer (pXPP) thin films deposited by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition using the para-xylene precursor was comparatively measured using various methods. Cu layer was deposited on the surfaces of pXPPs treated by $N_2$ plasma generated in a magnetically enhanced inductively coupled plasma reactor. Diffusion characteristics of Cu into pXPPs were measured using Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (RBS), secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS), cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (XTEM), and current-voltage (I-V) measurements for the vacuum-annealed Cu/pXPPs for 1 hour at $450^{\circ}C$ and were compared. The results showed a correlation between the I-V measurement and SIMS data are correlated and have a sensitivity enough to evaluate the dielectric properties but the RBS or XTEM measurements are not sufficient to conclude the electrical properties of low-k dielectrics with Cu in the film bulk. The additional results indicate that the pXPP layers are quite resistant to Cu diffusion at the annealing temperature of $450^{\circ}C$ compared to the other previously reported organic low-k materials.

The Compton backscatter technique has been applied to lap-joint in aircraft structure in order to determine mass loss due to exfoliative corrosion of the aluminum alloy sheet skin. The mass loss of each layer has been estimated from Compton backscatter A-scan including the aluminum sheet, the corrosion layer, and the sealant. A Compton backscattering imaging system has been also developed to obtain a cross-sectional profile of corroded lap-splices of aging aircraft using a specially designed slit-type camera. The camera is to focus on a small scattering volume inside the material from which the backscattered photons are collected by a collimated scintillator detector for interpretation of material characteristics. The cross section of the layered structure is scanned by moving the scattering volume through the thickness direction of the specimen. The theoretical model of the Compton scattering based on Boltzmann transport theory is presented for quantitative characterization of exfoliative corrosion through deconvolution procedure using a nonlinear least-square error minimization method. It produces practical information such as location and width of planar corrosion in layered structures of aircraft, which generally cannot be detected by conventional NDE techniques such as the ultrasonic method.

Superluminescent diodes(SLDs)는 광섬유 자이로스코프, OTDR, 중단거리 광통신시스템과 같은 광측정 시스템으로의 응용에 있어서 최적의 광원이다. SLD의 넓은 스펙트럼 특성은 Rayleigh 후방산란 잡음, 편광잡음, 광섬유 자이로 스코프에서의 비선형 Ken 효과에 의한 bias offset을 감소시킨다. 본 논문에서 레이징을 억제하기 위해서 윈도우 영역을 갖고 측방향으로 경사진 SCH(Separate Confinement Heterostructure)-SLD를 제안하였다. 제작된 소자의 출력은 펄스 구동 200mA, $25^{\circ}C$에서 11mW였다. 그리고, 120mA에서 수평 및 수직 방사각은 31$^{\circ}$$\times$38$^{\circ}$였다.

Tantalum pentoxide (Ta$_2$O$\sub$5/) is a candidate for use in metal-insulator-metal diode in switching devices for active-matrix liquid-crystal displays. The MIM diode with very low threshold voltage and perfect symmetry was fabricated. High quality Ta$_2$O$\sub$5/ thin films were obtained by using an anodizing method. Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy, transmission electron microscope observations, auger electron spectroscopy, ellipsometry measurements, and electrical measurements, such as current - voltage(I-V) measurements were performed to investigate Ta$_2$O$\sub$5/ films and their reliability and indicated that the obtained TaOx thin films were reliable Ta$_2$O$\sub$5/ films for the applications. Furthermore, in this paper, we discuss the effects of top-electrode metals and annealing conditions. The conduction mechanism of the leakage current and the symmetry characteristics related to the Schottky emission and Poole-Frankel effect are also discussed using the results of electrical measurements and conduction barrier theory.

Acoustical backscattering characteristics of Japanese anchovy can be estimated by Kirchhoffray mode model (KRM model) due to estimate exact body and swim-bladder shape of the fish, the samples were rapidly frozen by dry-ice and alcohol. X-ray photos for ventral and lateral direction for 6 samples were taken and the 3D coordinates of the body swim-bladder were estimated by digitizing from the photos. The angles between the axis of body and swim-bladder were about $9^{\circ}$ at 38kHz and $7^{\circ}$ at 120kHz, 200kHz. General formula of TS and BL estimated were < $TS_{38kHz}$ >=20logBL-67.3, < $TS_{120kHz}$ >=20logBL-66.6, < $TS_{200kHz}$ >=20logBL-67.0. As a result, we confirmed KRM model is very useful to estimate TS (Target Strength) for design of experiment and it also can be applied to estimate the abundance of Japanese anchovy distributed by 2 frequency difference method in the survey area.

Damage induced by Si ion implantation and its annealing behavior during rapid thermal annealing were investigated by cross-sectional TEM (transmission electron microscopy) and RB ( Rutherford backscattering) spectrum. 150keV and 50keV Si ions were implanted in Si (100) at room temperature with doses of 2${\times}10^{15}cm^{-2}$. And 100keV Si ions were implanted in Si with doses from 1${\times}10^{14}cm^{-2}$. A variety of damage structures were generated by Si ion implantation such as continuous amorphous layer extending to the surface buried amorphous layer and damage clusters. Damage clusters are annealed out at the lower annealing temperature of 550 $^{\circ}C$. However, event at the temperature of 110$0^{\circ}C$ end of range loops remain in the original lower amorphous/crystal interface in the case of continuous and buried amorphous layer formation. Extended defects in the shape of zipper dislocations are also observed at the middle of the recrystallized region in the buried amorphous layer.
