Die-upset magnets from a mechanically-milled Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type alloy are known to have a peculiar texture; the easy magnetization axis (c-axis) is perpendicular to the pressing direction. This peculiar texture is thought to be linked closely to the anisotropic mechanical properties of Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type hexagonal compounds. The hardness of the Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type crystal was measured using selectively grown grains in an annealed $Pr_{17}Co_{82}In_1$ alloy button, and the crystallographic orientation was determined by observing the magnetic domain image. The hardness (549 VHN) on the plane with a 'cogwheel'-type domain image was significantly higher than that (510 VHN) on the plane with a 'cigar'-type domain image, indicating that the inter-layer bonding force between the (000l) basal planes is stronger than that between the (hki0) planes. This suggests that the most probable slip plane is the (hki0) plane parallel to the c-axis. During die-upsetting of the Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type alloys the deformation proceeds by (hki0) plane slip, and the c-axis rotates to ultimately become oriented perpendicular to the pressing direction. It is proposed that the peculiar texture in the die-upset Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type magnets is probably developed by slip deformation of the (hki0) plane of the Pr(Co,In)$_5$-type grains.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the possible efficacy of Nd-YAG laser as a dentin conditioner by observing the laser irradiation dentin surface under scanning electron micrograph and measuring shear bond strength of restored light-cured glass ionomer mold. Fifty intact premolars were prepared for shear bond strength tests. The teeth were randomly divided into five groups as follows; Group I. no treatment Group II. 10% poly acrylic acid, 20 sec Group III. laser treatment 2 w, 20 Hz, 2 sec Group IV. laser treatment 2 w, 20 Hz, 5 sec Group V. laser treatment 2 w, 20 Hz, 10 sec Samples of each group were restored with light-cured glass ionomer cement after dentin conditioning and then measuring the shear bond strength of each specimen were measured using universal testing machine. Additional ten premolars were prepared for SEM analysis The result from the this study can be summarized as follows. 1. Shear bond strength of polyacrylic acid-treated group (II) was significantly higher than other groups (p<0.05). 2. No statistically significant difference could be found between three laser-treated groups (III, IV, V) in shear bond strength(p>0.05) 3. According to the result of observation under SEM, Polyacrylic acid was shown to have removed the smear layer effectively and opened the dentinal tubules, whereas the laser has produced the irregular surface mainly composed of melted and fused structure. The microcracks found in laser-treated groups increased in number with irradiation time and formed the regular mesh-type in 10 sec-irradiation group. 4. The ultrastructural change of dentin surface created by laser irradiation was found to the improper for bonding of the glass ionomer restorative materials. And the lower shear bond strength of laser irradiated group might have been due to the failure to form the suit able dentin surface for the glass ionomer to penetrated into and form the proper micromechanical retention.

Fe-based amorphous coatings were fabricated on a soda-lime glass substrate by the vacuum kinetic spray method. The effect of the gas flow rate, which determines particle velocity, on the deposition behavior of the particle and microstructure of the resultant films was investigated. The as-fabricated microstructure of the film was studied by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM). Although the activation energy for transformation from the amorphous phase to crystalline phase was lowered by severe plastic deformation and particle fracturing under a high strain rate, the crystalline phases could not be found in the coating layer. Incompletely fractured and small fragments 100~300 nm in size, which are smaller than initial feedstock material, were found on the coating surface and inside of the coating. Also, some pores and voids occurred between particle-particle interfaces. In the case of brittle Fe-based amorphous alloy, particles fail in fragmentation fracture mode through initiation and propagation of the numerous small cracks rather than shear fracture mode under compressive stress. It could be deduced that amorphous alloy underwent particle fracturing in a vacuum kinetic spray process. Also, it is considered that surface energy caused by the formation of new surfaces and friction energy contributed to the bonding of fragments.

The interfacial adhesion strengths between screen-printed Ag film and epoxy resin-coated polyimide were evaluated by $180^{\circ}$ peel test method. Measured peel strength value was initially around $164.0{\pm}24.4J/m^2$, while the heat treatment during 24h at $120^{\circ}C$ increase peel strength up to $220.8{\pm}19.2J/m^2$. $85^{\circ}C/85%$ RH temperature/humidity treatment decrease peel strength to $84.1{\pm}50.8J/m^2$, which seems to be attributed to hydrolysis bonding reaction mechanism between metal and adhesive epoxy resin coating layer.

A rectangular straight microchannel, integrated with the resistance temperature detectors(RTDs) for temperature sensing and a micro-heater for generating the Temperature gradient along the channel, was fabricated. Its dimension is 57${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$(H)$\times$200${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$(W)$\times$48,050${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$(L), and RTDs were placed at the inner-channel wall. Si wafer was used as a substrate. For the fabrication of RTDs, 5300$\AA$ thick Pt/Ti layer was sputtered on a Pyrex glass wafer. Finally, the glass wafer was bonded with Si wafer by anodic bonding, so that the RTDs are located inside the microchannel. Temperature coefficient of resistance(TCR) values of the fabricated Pt-RTDs were 2800~2950ppm$^{\circ}C$ and the variation of TCR value In the range of O~10$0^{\circ}C$ was less than 0.3％. Therefore, it was proved that the fabricated Pt-RTDs without annealing were excellent as temperature sensors. The temperature distribution in the microchannel was investigated as a function of mass flow rate and heating power. The temperature increase rate diminished with decreasing the applied power and increasing the mass flow rate. It was confirmed from the comparison with the simulation results that the temperature measured inside the microchannel is more accurate than measuring the temperature measured at the outer wall. The proposed temperature sensing method and microchannel are expected to be useful in microfluidics researches.

Capacitive pressure sensor for low pressure measurements has been fabricated by using $n^{+}$ epitaxial layer electrochemical etching stop and glass-to-silicon electrostatic bonding technique. The sensor had hybrid configuration of a sensor chip, which consists of sensor capacitor and reference capacitor, and two output signal detection IC chips. A fabricated sensor, with a $1.0{\times}1.0 mm^{2}$ square size and a $10{\mu}m$ thick flat diaphragm, showed a 7.1 pF zero pressure capacitance, and 5.2 % F.S, sensitivity in 10 KPa pressure range. By using a capacitance to voltage converter, the thermal zero shift of 0.051 %F.S./$^{\circ}C$ and the thermal sensitivity shift of 0.12 %F.S./$^{\circ}C$ for temperature range of $5{\sim}45^{\circ}C$ were obtained.

A vacuum pressure-difference technique for making a nano-precision replica is investigated for various applications. Master patterns for replication were fabricated using a nano-replication printing (nRP) process. In the nRP process, any picture and pattern can be replicated from a bitmap figure file in the range of several micrometers with resolution of 200nm. A liquid-state monomer is solidified by two-photon absorption (TPA) induced by a femto-second laser according to a voxel matrix scanning. After polymerization, the remaining monomers were removed simply by using ethanol droplets. And then, a gold metal layer of about 30nm thickness was deposited on the fabricated master patterns prior to polydimethylsiloxane molding for preventing bonding between the master and the polydimethylsiloxane mold. A few gold particles attached on the polydimethylsiloxane stamp during detaching process were removed by a gold selecting etchant. After fabricating the polydimethylsiloxane mold, a nano-precision polydimethylsiloxane replica was reproduced. More precise replica was produced by the vacuum pressure-difference technique that is proposed in this paper. Through this study, direct patterning on a glass plate, replicating a polydimethylsiloxane mold, and reproducing polydimethylsiloxane replica are demonstrated with a vacuum pressure-difference technique for various micro/nano-applications.

The W thin films were deposited on Si3N4 by a PECVD technique. The effects of substrate temperature and gas flow ratio on the properties of the W films were investigated. The deposition of W films were limited by surface reaction at the temperature range of 150>~$250^{\circ}C$, W films had the deposition rate of 150~530 $\AA$/min and stress of 0.85~$14.35\times10 ^9 \textrm {dynes/cm}^2}$ at various substrate temperatures and $SiH_4/WF_6$ flow ratios. $SiH_4/WF_6$ flow ratio affected the deposition rate and stress of the W films, expecially, excessive flow of SiH4 abruptly changed the structure, chemical bonding, and stress of the W films. Among the deposited W films on TiN, Ti, Mo, NiCr and Al adhesion layer, the one on the Al had the best adhesion property.

Due to excellent corrosion resistance, in particular against sea water, Al-2wt.$\%$Zn alloys have been used as the sacrifice anode material for tube of the ORV. Al-2wt.$\%$Zn alloys thermal-sprayed coating, however, were spalled on the lower part of ORV due to the lack of bonding strength between base material and coating layer and the dropping energy of sea water, To overcome the problems of the thermal spray coating, we developed the cladded tube manufacturing process by coextrusion of the clad and base metal. The corrosion resistance of cladded tube was improved by two times at least, compared with that of the present thermal spray coated vaporizer tubes.

Stainless-clad (SC) bimetallic steels that are manufactured by metallurgically bonding stainless steels as cladding metal and conventional mild steels as substrate metal, are kind of advanced steel plate products. Such advanced composite steels are gaining increasingly widespread usage in a range of engineering structures and have great potential to be used extensively for large civil and building infrastructures. Unfortunately, research work on the SC bimetallic steels from material level to structural design level for the applications in structural engineering field is very limited. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to investigate the material behaviour of the SC bimetallic steels under the cyclic loading which structural steels usually could encounter in seismic scenario. A number of SC bimetallic steel coupon specimens are tested under monotonic and cyclic loadings. The experimental monotonic and cyclic stress-strain curves of the SC bimetallic steels are obtained and analysed. The effects of the clad ratio that is defined as the ratio of the thickness of cladding layer to the total thickness of SC bimetallic steel plate on the monotonic and cyclic behaviour of the SC bimetallic steels are studied. Based on the experimental observations, a cyclic constitutive model with combined hardening criterion is recommended for numerical simulation of the cyclic behaviour of the SC bimetallic steels. The parameters of the constitutive model for the SC bimetallic steels with various clad ratios are calibrated. The research outcome presented in this paper may provide essential reference for further seismic analysis of structures fabricated from the SC bimetallic steels.
