ZnO transparent conducting thin film, which is a strong candidate for a transparent electrical contact in optoelectronic devices, was prepared by the vapour spraying method on the slide glass in nitrogen ambient at the atmospheric pressure. The structural, optical and electrical properties of films show a strong dependence on substrate temperature, and the optimum range of deposition temperature existed to obtain TCO(Transparent Conducting Oxide) films. At the higher temperatures, milky films were obtained. In such optimum range, the bandgap in ZnO films was determined from the spectral dependence of absorption coefficient and electrical characteristics were characterized with by the Hall mobility and carrier concentration.

Antimony-doped Tin oxide (ATO) thin films were deposited on soda-lime glass substrates by DC magnetron sputtering technique. Effects of DC power film thickness and post heat-treatment on electrical conductivity of ATO film were investigated. Other properties of ATO film such as optical anti-chemical and wear properties were also reported in this work. The obtained ATO films showed electrical resistivities ranging from 5$\times$10-3 $\Omega$cm to 3$\times$10-3 $\Omega$cm with the average optical transparency above 80% in visible wavelength range and excel-lent anti-chemical properties where the electrical resistivity was not changed even after soaking the films in 1M HCl or 1M NaOH solution for 10 days. These properties were found to be related to the crystallinity of ATO film and the films having higher crystallinity showed better properties.

Partially stabilized alpha-sialon composition (X=0.1) powder was hot-pressed at 1800~200$0^{\circ}C$ for 0~90 min with 30 MPa. Sintering behavior, phase changes and mechanical properties for the specimens were studied. As sintering temperature was raised from 1800 to 190$0^{\circ}C$, the relative density tended to increase and reached 99% of theoretical at 190$0^{\circ}C$. However the amount of alpha-sialon decreased because alpha-sialon transformed to beta-Si3N4 and yttrium rich silicate glass. In the case of hot-pressing at 190$0^{\circ}C$ for various times, densification increased with sintering time and full densification above 99% of theoretical was attained by 30 min. The amount of alpha-sialon decreased with sintering time. The maximum strength of 825 MPa was obtained by hot-pressing at 190$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 min.

In order to clarify, factors affecting on mechanical strengthof porcelain bodies, some experiments were carried out for bobies consisting of Hadong kaolin, quartz of optical glass grade and potash-feldspar. At first, degree of vitrification of the fired bodies were examined from the results of bulk density measurement. Constituent minerals of these fired bodies were mainly examined by means of X-ray diffraction, and their microstructure were observed by means of the polarization microscope and scanning electron microscope. Transverse and impact strength of the bodies were also determined. Finally, relations between their mechanical strength and the other properties obtained were discussed. The mechanical strength, at least the transverse strength increased with increasing densification of the bodies and accompanied with an increase of stress produced in the quartz grains and, perhaps other phases composing the bodies.

Thick film resistor paste was made utilizing oxide materials such as SnO, SnO＋Sb2O3, and SnO＋Zn. The oxide materials were mixed respectively with Q-12 glass powder and finally suspended in ethyl cellulose dissolved in ethyl cellosolve. Thick film resistor was made by screen printing the paste on the alumina substrate and firing it at a suitable temperature. Among thick films made from the resistor paste, the thick film containing 85% SnO and fired at $600^{\circ}C$ demonstrated the finest electrical properties showing 10 K ohm in sheet resistance, 110 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ in TCR. In general, TCR of the thick films made from the oxide-mixture paste is good in linearity, therefore it is suggested the oxide-mixture paste is utilized as the negative thermistor.

Effects of annealing temperature, time, and atmospehre on the flow characteristics of Atmospheric Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition-borophosphosilicate glass were investigated. Stable step coverage can be obtained by annealing the BPSG film at 90$0^{\circ}C$ for 30 minutes in N2 atmosphere, but further heat treatment isnot effective. Flow characteristics of the BPSG film was better in steam atmosphere than in N2 atmosphere, and the factors which cause it were analyzed. The concentration of boron in the BPSG film was measured pretty accurately by FTIR spectrum. Boron content in the BPSG film was reduced by annealing treatment. The decrement of boron was greater in steam atmosphere than in the N2 atmosphere. Also it was found from the FTIR spectroscopic analysis that PH3 inhibited the oxidation of B2H6.

The tungsten paste was printed on the surface of 92% alumina sheet which was made by type casting process. The printed tungsten was bonded on the Al2O3 by co-firing in reducing atmosphere. During the co-firing, the binder burn-out was easier in wet H2 atmosphere than in dry H2, which affected sintered density. In practically, the use of wet H2 above 100$0^{\circ}C$ was beneficial for density of alumina and bond strength. This phenomena occured more distinctly when atmosphere varied from dry H2 to wet H2 than varied dew point in wet H2. In wet H2, the improvement in bonding strength can be attributed to good glass migration into the metal layer due to inhibition of the tungsten particle growth, with increase of alumina density, at the temperatrue higher than 100$0^{\circ}C$.

Recently, research on geopolymeric concrete that does not use cement as a binder has been actively investigated. Geopolymeric concrete is cement-free concrete. Masato, ocher and/or soil has been solidified into geopolymeric concrete by the reaction of specifically modified silicate as an alkali activator and inorganic binding materials such as blast furnace slag, fly ash or meta-kaolin, which is cured at room temperature to exhibit high compressive strengths. Based on the results, this study shows how geopolymeric concrete that uses specifically modified silicate and inorganic binding materials is implemented as eco-cement with no cement.

In developing high temperature molds with advantages of the sand and precision (investment) castings, mechanical properties of the mold were improved through homogeneous coating of starting powders with an inorganic binder and improvement of fabrication process. Beads with mullite composition were employed for properties of the mold under high temperature, which was compared with artificial sands. Precursors of silica and sodium oxide were used as starting materials for an inorganic binder to achieve homogeneous coating on the starting powders. Strength was enhanced by the glass phase converted from the inorganic binder through heat treatment process. Also, two kinds of process, wet and dry processes, were incorporated to prepare mold specimens. Consequently, fabrication process of the mold with superior strength and high temperature applicability, compared with the previous molds for sand casting, could be suggested through control of the starting material and enhancement of the vitrification efficiency.

본 논문에서는 저소음 및 저 신호 왜곡 특성을 가지는 내환원성 유전체 원료를 개발하기 위하여 $(Ca_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})(Zr_{0.97}Ti_{0.03})O_3$에 $CaTiO_3$, $SrTO_3$, $BaTiO_3$를 첨가하여 이에 따른 유전 특성을 조사하였다. 첨가량의 조절 및 glass frit 첨가를 통하여 환원성 분위기에서도 유전율 80 ~ 100, 절연저항 (R*C) 500[ohm-F] 이상의 유전특성을 얻었다. 본 연구결과로 얻어진 유전재료를 적용하면 무소음 및 저 신호 왜곡 특성을 가지면서도 고 신뢰성의 MLCC를 제작할 수 있을 것으로 예상된다.
