CuIn$Se_2$ (CIS) and related compounds such as Cu($In_xGa_{1-x})Se_2$(CIGS) have been studied by their potential for use in photovoltaic devices. CIS thin film materials which have high absorption coefficient and wide bandgap, have attracted much attention as an alternative to crystalline and amorphous silicon solar cells currently in use. Cu-rich CIGS film have very low resistivity, due to coexistence of the semimetallic $Cu_{2-x}Se$. In-rich CIGS films show high resistivity, since these films are compensated films without the $Cu_{2-x}Se$ phase. Optical properties of the CIGS films also change in accordance with the resistivity for the Cu/(In+Ga) ratio. The Cu-rich films have different spectra from In-rich films in near infrared wavelengths.

Continuous casting of the Al-Cu-Ni ternary eutectic alloys was carried out by the upward continuous casting process. The morphology of the ternary eutectic growth and the stability of solid-liquid interface were investigated under various growth conditions. It was possible to get the planar solid-liquid interface at the condition of $G_L/R＝3.59{\times}10^3^{\circ}C\;sec/mm^2$ in Al-Cu-Ni ternary eutectic alloys. In Al-rich, Ni-rich and Cu-rich hypereutectics of Al-Cu-Ni ternary alloys, primary ${\alpha},\;{\tau}\;and\;{\theta}$ dendrites have grown as the leading phase ahead of the ternary eutectic composites.

A well oriented Bi2212 superconductor thick films were fabricated by screen printing with a Cu-free Bi-Sr-Ca-O mixture powder on a copper plate and heat-treating at 820-88$0^{\circ}C$ for several minute in air. During the heat-treatment, the printing layer partially melted by reaction between the Cu-free precursor and CuO of the oxidizing copper plate. In the partial melting state, it is believed that the solid phase is Bi-free phase and Cu-rich phase and the composition of the liquid is around Bi : Sr : Ca : Cu = 2 : 2 : 0 : 1. Following the partial melting, the Bi2212 superconducting phase is formed at Bi-free phase/liquid interface by nucleation and grows. With decreasing the Bi composition in the precursor powder, the critical temperature(T$_{c}$) of the fabricated Bi2212 thick film increased to about 79 K.K.

Cu-Ni-P alloy nano powders were fabricated by the electrical explosion of electroless Ni plated Cu wires. The effect of applied voltage on the explosion was examined by applying pulse voltage of 6 and 28 kV, The estimated overheating factor, K, were 1.3 for 6 kV and 2.2 for 28 kV. The powders produced with pulse voltage of 6 kV were composed of Cu-rich solid solution, Ni-rich solid solution, and $Ni_3P$ phase. While, those produced with 28 kV were complete Cu-Ni-P solid solution and small amount of $Ni_3P$ phase. The initial P content of 6.5 at.% was reduced to 2-3 at.% during explosion due to its high vapour pressure.

A rotating magnetic field (RMF) was applied in the solidification process of Cu-8Fe alloy. Focus on the mechanism of RMF on the solid solution Fe(Cu) atoms in Cu-8Fe alloy, the influences of RMF on solidification structure, solute distribution, and material properties were discussed. Results show that the solidification behavior of Cu-Fe alloy have influenced through the change of temperature and solute fields in the presence of an applied RMF. The Fe dendrites were refined and transformed to rosettes or spherical grains under forced convection. The solute distribution in Cu-rich phase and Fe-rich phase were changed because of the variation of the supercooling degree and the solidification rate. Further, the variation in solute distribution was impacted the strengthening mechanism and conductive mechanism of the material.

The objective of this study is to develop the mechanical properties of AlSiCu aluminum alloy by the two-step solution heat treatment. The microstructure of gravity casting specimen represents a typical dendrite structure having a secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) of 40 mm. In addition to the Al matrix, a large amount of coarsen eutectic Si phase, $Al_2Cu$ intermetallic phase, and Fe-rich phases are generated. The eutectic Si phases are fragmented and globularized with solution heat treatment. Also, the $Al_2Cu$ intermetallic phase is resolutionized into the Al matrix. The $2^{nd}$ solution temperature at $525^{\circ}C$ might be a optimum condition for enhancement of mechanical properties of AlSiCu aluminum alloy.

금속-세라믹용 수복물에서 하부 구조물 제작에 사용되는 합금 중 하나인 Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn계 합금은 비교적 최근에 개발된 합금인 이유로 인해 도재 용착을 위한 소성 과정을 거치면서 합금에서 일어날 수 있는 경도 변화가 아직 밝혀지지 않았다. 그러나 이와 조성이 유사한 Pd-Cu-Ga-In-Au계 금속-세라믹용 합금의 경우 모의 소성 과정에서 경도가 하강한 것으로 밝혀져 있다. 따라서 Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn계 합금 또한 소성 과정 중에 합금의 연화가 일어날 것으로 예상되었으며 금속-세라믹용 Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn계 합금의 모의 소성 시 냉각 속도가 석출 경화에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 다음과 같은 결과를 얻었다. 냉각 속도가 빠른 경우(Stage 0) 매 소성 단계에서 합금의 경도가 상승하였고, 최종 경도 값도 높게 유지되었다. 냉각 속도가 느린 경우(Stage 3) 소성 첫 단계에서는 경도가 가장 높았지만, 소성 완료 후 합금의 최종 경도는 더 낮아졌다. 매 소성 단계에서 Stage 0으로 냉각한 시편에서 소성 과정 동안 경도가 상승한 원인은 석출 경화에 기인하였다. 주조 후 매 소성 단계에서 Stage 3의 냉각 속도로 냉각한 시편에서 소성 과정 동안 경도가 하강한 원인은 기지와 판상형 석출물 내부에 생성된 점 모양의 석출물의 조대화에 기인하였다. 기지와 판상형 석출물은 CsCl-type의 $Pd_2(Cu,Ga,Zn)$ 상이며, 입자형 구조는 Cu, Ga, Zn을 고용한 면심입방(face-centered cubic) 구조의 Pd-rich ${\alpha}$ 상이었다. $1,010^{\circ}C$에서 산화처리 한 시편을 더 낮은 온도에서 여러 단계로 소성함에 따라 Pd-rich ${\alpha}$ 상으로 이루어진 입자에 고용되어 있던 Cu, Ga, Zn이 Pd와 함께 석출되어 Pd-rich ${\alpha}^{\prime}$ 입자와 $Pd_2(Cu,Ga,Zn)$으로 이루어진 ${\beta}^{\prime}$ 석출 상으로 상 분리가 진행되었다. 이상으로부터 Pd-Cu-Ga-Zn계 합금은 모의 소성 시 냉각 속도를 빠르게 함으로써 최종 보철물의 내구성을 향상시킬 수 있다고 생각되었다.

The barium rich region of the Y-Ba-Cu-O-C system includes a tetragonal perovskite-like phase, which possesses a wide homogeneity region toward yttrium, copper and carbonate ion on the one hand, and toward oxygen, on the other hand. Accounting for vacancies ($\square$-vacancy) this phase could be described by the general formula per unit cell: {Ba$_8$}[Y$_{3-z}$Cu$_{5-x}$$(CO_3)_n$ $\square$$_{x+x-n}$]O$_{y{\pm}{\delta}y}$ (*). Here, cube-octahedral sites are represented in braces, while quasioctahedral ones with proper octahedral (Y, Cul), square (Cu2) and triangular (CO$_3$) configuration are shown in square brackets. The formula (*) was confirmed by full-profile Rietveld refinement based on X-ray diffraction data of YBa$_{5}$Cu$_2$O$_y$ (1-5-2 phase). Homogeneity region limits of the phase (*) at 96$0^{\circ}C$ in air were determined to be -0.33$\leq$x$\leq$1.80, 0.33$\leq$z$\leq$2.00, 0$\leq$n$\leq$3.

In this research, a new medium-entropy alloy with an equiatomic composition of FeCuNi was designed using a phase diagram (CALPHAD) technique. The FeCuNi MEA was produced from pure iron, copper, and nickel powders through mechanical alloying. The alloy powders were consolidated via a high-pressure torsion process to obtain a rigid bulk specimen. Subsequently, annealing treatment at different conditions was conducted on the four turn HPT-processed specimen. The microstructural analysis indicates that an ultrafine-grained microstructure is achieved after post-HPT annealing, and microstructural evolutions at various stages of processing were consistent with the thermodynamic calculations. The results indicate that the post-HPT-annealed microstructure consists of a dual-phase structure with two FCC phases: one rich in Cu and the other rich in Fe and Ni. The kernel average misorientation value decreases with the increase in the annealing time and temperature, indicating the recovery of HPT-induced dislocations.

Programmable Metallization Cell (PMC) is a memory device based on the electrolytical characteristic of chalcogenide materials. We investigated the nature of thin films formed by photo doping of Cu ions into chalcogenide materials for use in solid electrolyte of PMC. We were able to do more economical approach by using copper which play an electrolyte ions role. The results imply that a Cu-rich phase separates owing to the reaction of Cu with free atoms from chalcogenide materials.
