Cuprous oxide ($Cu_2O$)는 밴드갭이 2.17 eV p-type 산화물 반도체로써 태양에너지 변환기, photocatalysis (광촉매작용), 센서, 스위칭 메모리 등 응용이 다양한 재료이다. 산화물 반도체의 기본 특성은 나노/마이크로 범위 안에서 재료의 표면형태, 크기, 구조와 형상 공간방향등에 크게 영향을 받는다. 그렇기 때문에 원하는 $Cu_2O$ 특성을 얻기 위해서 성장 거동을 아는 것은 매우 중요하다. RF 마그네트론 스퍼터법으로 rod 성장 사례는 잘 알려지지 않았다. 그래서 RF 마그네트론 스퍼터법 $Cu_2O$ rod 형성 실험을 통하여 $Cu_2O$ 형성과 성장 거동을 알아보았다. RF 마그네트론 스퍼터법으로 $Cu_2O$ rod를 glass 기판 위에 Cu metal target을 이용하여 형성시켰다. $Cu_2O$ rod 합성을 위해 기판온도 및 산소분압 O2/(Ar+O2)=3%, 5%, 7% 증착시간 등을 변화시켜 실험하였다. 성장된 rod의 분석은 XRD, SEM으로 확인하였다. 성장 거동은 증착온도와 증착시간에 차이를 보였다. 증착온도 $550^{\circ}C$에서 rod가 생성되는 것을 관찰하였다. 증착시간이 길어질수록 rod 길이가 길어지고 일정 시간이 지나면 rod의 길이 성장보다는 두께(폭)가 성장하는 것을 확인하였다. 증착온도 $550^{\circ}C$ 그리고 산소분압 3%, 5%, 7% 조건에서 rod 합성 실험을 하였을 때 3%, 5% 조건에서 rod의 성장을 확인하였다. 이때 3%, 5% 산소분압에 따라 rod의 모양이 변화하였다. 하지만 7% 조건에서는 rod가 성장하지 않았다. 이유는 3%, 5%에서는 Cu metal peak을 확인하였지만, 7% 조건에서는 Cu metal peak이 없었다. 이로부터 Cu metal이 $Cu_2O$ rod 생성에 영향을 미치는 중요한 요소임을 예상할 수 있었다.

The effect of texture of an extruded OFHC Cu rod on its sliding wear has been explored. Disk specimens with three different orientations were machined from the Cu rod for the wear test; surfaces of the disk were perpendicular ($0^{\circ}$), inclined with a specific angle ($45^{\circ}$), and parallel ($90^{\circ}$) to the extrusion axis of the rod. The texture was analyzed using an X-ray goniometer by measuring {111}, {200}, and {220} pole figures of each specimen. The analyzed texture was correlated with wear-test results of the Cu specimen. Dry sliding wear tests were performed at room temperature using a pin-on-disk wear tester against an Al2O3 ball. Applied load, sliding distance, sliding speed were fixed as 20 N, 200 m, and 0.5 m/sec, respectively. The $45^{\circ}$-inclined (to the extrusion axis) disk specimen showed the lowest wear resistance with the least data scatters. It has been found that distribution of cube texture strongly influences wear rate of the extruded Cu rod.

In order to manufacture copper ultra fine wire used for bonding wire in integrated circuit package, continuous casting process, which can produce high purity copper rod with small cross section, and wiredrawing process have to be optimized to prevent wire brakeage during entire manufacturing process of fine wire. The optimum condition for producing copper rod with mirror surface has to established by investigation of the effects of several parameters such as withdrawal speed, superheat and rod diameter on grain morphology of the cast rod and on its drawing characteristics to fine wire. The purpose of this study is to propose the optimized process parameters in continuous casting process in order to produce cast rod without internal defects, and to predict microstructure orientation suitable for wire drawing process.

We have studied the electrical properties and microstructure of $(Y_{0.5}Nd_{0.25}Sm_{0.25})Ba_2Cu_3O_y[(YNS)-123]$ Oxides by rod-type seeded melt growth process(RSMG) in air atmosphere. Rod-type $NdBa_2Cu_3O_y${Nd-123) seed crystals made a extrusion process method, were used for achieving the ab-plane alignment having large grains perpendicular to the center of (YNS)-123 samples. The observations using SEM and TEM micrographs of the melt-textured (YNS)-123 samples revealed that the nonsuperconducting $(Y_{0.5}Nd_{0.25}Sm_{0.25})Ba_2Cu_3O_y[(YNS)-211]$ inclusions are uniformly distributed in the superconducting matrix. The microstructure and electrical properties were investigated by XRD, SEM, TEM and DC SQUID magnetometer. The sample showed a sharp superconducting transition at 90 K. The magnetization values of the (YNS)-123 sample exhibited the enhanced electrical properties, compared with $YBa_2Cu_3O_y$(Y-123) sample.

We report the crystallization and magnetic properties of non-equilibrium $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{x}Cu_{1-x})_{0.4}(x=0.25, 0.50, 0.75)$ alloy powders produced by rod-milling as well as by new chemical leaching. X-ray diffractometry, transmission electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and vibrating sample magnetometry were used to characterize the as-milled and leached specimens. After 400 h or 500 h milling, only the broad peaks of nano bcc crystalline phases were detected in the XRD patterns. The crystallite size, the peak and the crystallization temperatures increased with increasing Fe. After being annealed at $600{^\circ}C$ for 1 h for as-milled alloy powders, the peaks of bcc $AlCu_{4}\;and\;Al_{13}Cu_{4}Fe_{3}\;for\;x=0.25,\;bcc\;AlCu_{4}\;and\;Al_{5}Fe_{2}\;for\;x=0.50,\;and\;Al_{5}Fe_{2},\;and\;Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}\;for\;x=0.75$ are observed. After being annealed at $500{^\circ}\;and\;600{^\circ}C$for 1 h for leached specimens, these non-equi-librium phases transformed into fcc Cu and $CuFe_{2}O_{4}$phases for the x=0.25 specimen, and into bcc ${\alpha}-Fe,\;fcc\;Cu,\;and\;CuFe_{2}O_{4}$ phases for both the x=0.50 and the x=0.75 specimens. The saturation magnetization decreased with increasing milling time for $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{x}Cu_{1-x})_{0.4}$ alloy powders. On cooling the leached specimens from $800{\~}850^{\circ}C$,\;the magnetization first sharply increase at about $491.4{\circ}C,\;745{\circ}C,\;and\;750.0{\circ}C$ for x=0.25, x=0.50, and x=0.75 specimens, repectively.

Silver sols are aggregated by a Cu or Zn rod. This is maybe due to the reduction of $Ag^+$ ion on the surfaces of silver sols to Ag metal by oxidation-reduction reaction with Cu or Zn metal. Raman spectra of silver sols aggregated by a Cu rod have been studied. The evidence of borate and nitrate ions adsorbed on silver colloid surfaces is found. It is also found that these ions adsorbed on silver colloid surfaces are easily replaced by adsorbated added.

The sintered polycrystalline N $d_{1.8}$B $a_{2.4}$C $u_{3.4}$$O_{7-x}$(Nd1.8) of rod-type seed crystal grown by extrusion mold process were used for achieving the ab-plane alignment haying large grains perpendicular to the center of (Sm/Y)1.8 samples. The observations using TEM micrographs of the melt-textured (Sm/Y)1.8 samples revealed that the nonsuperconducting (Sm/Y)211 inclusions are uniformly distributed in the superconducting (Sm/Y)123 matrix. The microstructure and superconducting properties were investigated by XRD, TEM and SQUID magnetometer.

The powder forging process offers beneficial material utilization as well as the minimization of finishing operations over that of conventionally forged rods. In the present work, the sintering behavior of Fe-2Cu-0.6C-0.35MnS, optimum preform design and forgeability of various forging conditions were investigated. This data were generated using a newly proposed sub-scaled con-rod specimen developed specifically to simulate the powder forging process. The results of present work, powder perform is so difficult to flow material into die cavity and mass flow has no effect on improving the strength. And, applied force to increase density of the specimen flowed material is greater than that of all repessing mode. On the contrary, the specimen flowed material became increased hardness of inside in contrast with all repressing mode, but the tensile strength were decreased with residual porosity in surface. Due to material flow characteristic of powder preform, the section of lower density in powder preform became also lower density in forged con-rod. So, preform design is very important in manufacturing powder forged connecting rod.

We report the structure, thermal and magnetic properties of a non-equilibrium $Al_{0.6}(Fe_{50}Cu_{50})_{0.4}$ alloy powder produced by rod milling and chemical leaching. An X-ray diffractometry(XRD), a transmission electron microscope(TEM), a differential scanning calorimeter(DSC), a vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM), and superconducting quantum interference device(SQUID) were utilized to characterize the as-milled and leaching specimens. The crystallite size reached a value of about 8.82 nm. In the DSC experiment, the peak temperatures and crystallization temperatures decreased with increasing milling time. The activation energy of crystallization is 200.5 kJ/mole for as-milled alloy powder. The intensities of the XRD peaks of as-milled powders associated with the bcc type $Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}$ structure formative at $350^{\circ}C$ sharply increase with increasing annealing temperature. Above $400^{\circ}C$, peaks alloted to $Al_{0.5}Fe_{0.5}$ and $Al_{5}Fe_{2}$ are observed. After annealing at $600^{\circ}C$ for 1h, the leached Ll specimen transformed into bcc $\alpha$-Fe and fcc Cu phases, accompanied by a change in the structural and magnetic properties. The saturation magnetization decreased with increasing milling time, and a value of about 8.42 emu/g was reached at 500 h of milling. The coercivity reached a maximum value of about 142.7 Oe after 500 h of milling. The magnetization of leached specimens as function of fields were higher at 5 K, and increased more sharply at 5 K than at 100 K.

This paper deals with the seasonal variation of soil resistivity and the special characteristic for ground rods by lapse of time. The ground resistance was changed by humidity, temperature of earth and earth resistance. In this experiment, we studied the resistivity during the period from June 1995 to May 1996 by the soil and the corrosion of the ground rods. As a result, the soil resistivity during the period are appeared minimum in summer and maximum in winter. The loss in weight of Fe rod appeared higher than Cu, Al, Cu-Zn, and St. In the lapse of time, Fe rod was reduced 1.2 % later two years and 1.95 % later three years in weight. Cu rod was defected oxygens of 14.7 % later two years and 30.3 % later three years by EDX.
