Diffusion speed of Cu metal fine particle is fast better than CuO, so it will promote grain growth in sintering. In this paper, the influence on substituting Cu fine particle for CuO of NiCuZn ferrite with basic composition (N $i_{0.204}$C $u_{0.204}$Z $n_{0.612}$ $O_{1.02}$)F $e_{1.98}$ $O_{2.98}$ has been investigated with varying Cu/CuO ratio. The perfect spinel structure of sintered specimen at 90$0^{\circ}C$ was confirmed by the analysis of XRD patterns. The best condition was obtained when the ratio of Cu/CuO was 60%, and the permeability was 1100 and Ms was 87 emu/g in this condition. Cu has influenced on grain growth in sintering, substituting Cu fine particle for CuO could lower sintering temperature over the 3$0^{\circ}C$. After sintering, substituting Cu performed as good as CuO.s CuO.s CuO.

We investigated the initial growth mode of Cu deposited on polyimide at room temperature using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We could find that when Cu is sputter-deposited on the polymide, Cu-N-O complex of strong interaction is mainly formed first, Cu-oxide of weak interaction is formed successively, and then finally metallic Cu grow. From these results, we could conclude that Cu/polyimide interface consists of Cu-N-O complex and Cu-oxide.

We investigated the initial growth mode of Cu deposited on polyimide at high temperature($350^{\circ}C$) using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We could find that when Cu is sputter-deposited on the polyimide at high temperature, Cu-C-N complex is formed first, Cu-N-O complex and Cu-oxide are mainly formed successively, and then funally metallic Cu grows. In the chemical reaction point of view, the interface of Cu/polyimide at high temperature is than that at room temperature.

The changes in the optical anisotropy of the clean Cu(110) and the oxygen covered Cu(110) surfaces due to Cu growth have been studied by reflectance difference spectroscopy(RDS). We have monitored the growth mode of Cu atoms on Cu(110) and Cu(110)-(2XlO surfaces at 250K and checked the surfactant effect of oxygen during the Cu growth. For Cu grow on Cu(110) and Cu(110)-(2Xl)O surface at low temperature, we observed evidence for the layer-by-layer growth mode with change of 4.25eV peak intensity.

The interactions between Cu/Sn-Ag-(Cu) and Sn-Ag-(Cu)/Ni interfacial reactions were studied during isothermal aging at $150^{\circ}C$ for up to 1000h using Cu(ENIG)/Sn-3.5Ag-(0.7Cu)/Cu(ENIG) sandwich solder joints. A typical scallop-type Cu-Sn intermetallic compound (IMC) layer formed at the upper Sn-Ag/Cu interface after reflowing, whereas a $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ IMC layer was observed at the Sn-Ag/ENIG interface. The Cu in the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ IMC layer formed on the Ni side was sourced from the dissolution of the opposite Cu metal pad or Cu-Sn IMC layer. When the dissolved Cu arrived at the interface of the Ni pad, the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ IMC layer formed on the Ni interface, preventing the Ni pad from reacting with the solder. Although a long isothermal aging treatment was performed at $150^{\circ}C$, no Ni was detected in the Cu-Sn IMC layer formed on the Cu side. Compared to the single Sn-Ag/ENIG solder joint, the formation of the $(Cu,Ni)_6Sn_5$ IMC layer of the Cu/sn-Ag/ENIG sandwich joint effectively retarded the Ni consumption from the electroless Ni-P layer.

We investigated the initial stages of formation of the Cu/polyimide interface using another two methods by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. : One, in-situ measurement with increasing of Cu deposition thickness onto polyimide(PI), the other, measurement with decreasing of Cu thickness of Cu/pI film by $Ar^+$ ion etching. From these results, we find that the chemical reactions exist in Cu/PI interface. However, the measured chemical reactions were different according to experimental method.

YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$, Y2BaCuO5, and binary compounds in the Ba-Cu-O system with the nominal composition of Ba2CuO3, BaCuO2, Ba3Cu4O7, Ba3Cu5O8 were synthesized to investigate the heat evolutions and crystalline phases in the hydration reaction of orthorhombic YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ phase. The observed crystalline phases were YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$, Y2BaCuO5, and BaCuO2, or Ba2Cu3O5＋x, and some amount of noncrystalline phase in the Ba-Cu system comounds. In contact with distilled water, YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ and Y2BaCuO5 did not have considerable heat liberation, but in the binary compounds of the Ba-Cu-O system, the amount of total heat liberation was increased with respect to the Cu content. It might be that the reaction of high temperature superconductor YBa2Cu3O7-$\delta$ with water and/or moisture originated from the unusual oxidation state of Cu ion and the presence of amorphous Ba-Cu oxide compound. The degradation of high Tc superconductor by moisture and water could be controlled by restricting the heterogeneous distribution of Tc comlposition and the formation of second phase, such as stable Y2BaCuO5, and the resulting unstable Ba-Cu oxide compound.

Sn-Ag-Cu solder is known as most competitive in many kinds of Pb-free solders. In this study, effects of solderability with plated layers such as Cu, Cu/Sn, Cu/Ni and Cu/Ni/Au were investigated. Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu solder balls were reflowed in commercial reflow machine (peak temp. : 250℃ and conveyer speed : 0.6m/min). In wetting test, immersion speed was 5mm/sec., immersion time 5sec., immersion depth 4mm and temperature of solder bath was 250℃. Wettability of Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu on Cu, Cu/Sn (5㎛), Cu/Ni (5㎛), and Cu/Ni/Au (5㎛/500Å) layers was investigated. Cu/Ni/Au layer had the best wettability as zero cross time and equilibrium force, and the measured values were 0.93 sec and 7mN, respectively. Surface tension of Sn-3.5Ag-0.7Cu solder turmed out to be 0.52N/m. The thickness of IMC is reduced in the order of Cu, Cu/Sn, Cu/Mi and Cu/Ni/Au coated layer. Shear strength of Cu/Ni, Cu/Sn and Cu was around 560gf but Cu/Ni/Au was 370gf.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of dietary supplementation of Cu-methionine chelate(Cu-Met) and Cu-soy proteinate(Cu-SP) on the performance, small intestinal microflora and immune response in laying hens. A total of 960 Hy-line $Brown^{(R)}$ laying hens of 39 wks old were assigned to one of the following 6 dietary treatment: control(C), antibiotic(Avilamycine 6 ppm), Cu-Met 50 and Cu-Met 100(50 and 100 ppm Cu as Cu-methionine chelate), Cu-SP 50 and Cu-SP 100(50 and 100ppm Cu as Cu-soy proteinate). Each treatment was replicated 4 times with forty birds per replication, housed in 2 birds per cages. Forty birds units were arranged according to randomized block design. Feeding trial lasted 6 wks under 16 hours lighting regimen. Hen-day and hen-house egg production of groups treated with Antibiotic and Cu supplements tended to be higher than the control with significant difference (P<0.05) shown between Cu-Me 100 and control. Egg weight was significantly (P<0.05) heavier in antibiotic and Cu-SP treatments than Cu-Met treatments but they were not significantly different from the control. Eggshell strength, egg shell thickness, egg yolk color and Haugh unit were not significantly different among treatments. There were no significant differences in leukocytes and erythrocytes in the chicken blood. But mean corpuscular hemoglobin value(MCH) was significantly (P<0.05) higher in Cu-SP 100 than antibiotic treatment. The concentrations of serum IgG and IgA were not significantly different among treatments. Copper concentration in the liver tended to increase as the level of copper supplementation increased, that of Cu-SP 100 being significantly (P<0.05) higher than those of the control and antibiotic treatment. Concentrations of iron and zinc of the liver were not significantly influenced by treatments. Populations of Cl. perfringens and Lactobacilli in the small intestinal content were significantly (P<0.05) influenced by treatments. Population of Cl. perfringens decreased and that of Lactobacilli increased in the copper supplemented groups. The result of this experiment showed that Cu-Met and Cu-SP are comparable to antibiotic in improving egg production in laying hens. Birds fed diets supplemented with Cu-SP produced heavier eggs than those fed diets with Cu-Met. There were no significant differences in the performances between 50 ppm and 100 ppm copper supplementation as organic forms.
