We have studied the field emission characteristics of multi-layered diamond-like-carbon (DLC) films deposited by vertical electrodes type plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition with CH$_4$ and H$_2$ mixture. We deposited a thin layer of DLC on the p$^{+}$-Si substrate and then turned off plasma before another deposition of a new DLC layer. The thickness and the number of DLC layers are varied. The emission characteristics of multi-layered DLC films were compared with conventional one. The multi-layered DLC film shows higher emission current than conventional one.e.

In recent, various functional coatings on artificial tooth implants have been conducted to enhance the bonding strength between implants and bones. Despite of these efforts, some previous reports argued that an adhesion strength between titanium implant and the final coatings like hydroxyapatite(HA) is weaker than the strength between coating and bone. In order to increase the adhesion force between the final coating and implant surface, TiN/DLC based functionally graded coating, which has higher mechanical strength than the titanium implant, was applied as a middle layer between titanium implant and final coating. Particularly we finally coated a biocompatible hydroxyapatite film on the DLC layer and examined the mechanical properties. As a result, TiN/DLC based functionally graded coating showed the higher adhesion strength compared with hydroxyapatite single layer coating on the titanium implant.

Dry sliding wear resistance of DLC coated silicon disk with different surface roughness has been evaluated using a ball-on-disk sliding tester. It was found that the transfer layer formed on steel ball produced a low friction regime and the formation of transfer layer was more active with increasing the substrate surface roughness. Wear life of DLC coating was increased as increasing the real area of contact.

We investigated tribological characteristics of diamond-like carbon (DLC) in a condition with carbon nanotube (CNT) content of 1wt% in aqueous solution. Si-DLC films were deposited by radio frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (RF-PECVD) process on Al6061 aluminum alloy. In this study, the deposition of DLC films was carried out in vacuum with a chamber pressure of 10-5 to 10-3 Torr achieved by mechanical pump followed by turbo molecular pump. The surface adsorbed oxygen on the Aluminum substrates was removed by passing Ar gas for 10 minutes. The RF power was maintained at 500W throughout the experiment. A buffer layer of HMDSO was deposited on the substrate to improve the adhesion of DLC coating. At this point CH4 gas was introduced in the chamber using gas flow controller and DLC coating was deposited on the buffer layer along with HMDSO for 50 min. The thickness of 1 ${\mu}m$ was obtained for DLC films on aluminum substrates The tribological properties of as synthesized DLC films were analyzed by wear test in the presence of dry air, water and lubricant such as CNT ink.

This paper describes the results of the application of Cr-Diamond-like carbon (DLC) films for efficiency improvement through surface modification of spur gear parts in the hydraulic gear pump. Cr-DLC films were successfully deposited on SCM 415 substrates by a hybrid coating process using linear ion source (LIS) and magnetron sputtering method. The characteristics of the films were systematically investigated using FE-SEM, nano-indentation, sliding tester and AFM instrument. The microstructure of Cr-DLC films turned into the dense and fine grains with relatively preferred orientation. The thickness formed in our Cr buffer layer and DLC coating layer were obtained the 487 nm and $1.14\;{\mu}m$. The average friction coefficient of Cr-DLC films considerably decreased to 0.15 for 0.50 of uncoated SCM415 material. The hardness and surface roughness of Cr-DLC films were measured 20 GPa and 10.76 nm, respectively. And then, efficiency tests were performed on the hydraulic gear pump to investigate the efficiency performance of the Cr-DLC coated spur gear. The experimental results show that the volumetric and mechanical efficiency of hydraulic gear pump using the Cr-DLC spur gear were improved up to 2~5% and better efficiency improvement could be attributed to its excellent microstructure, higher hardness, and lower friction coefficient. This conclusion proves the feasibility in the efficiency improvement of hydraulic gear pump for industrial applications.

에러율이 높은 무선채널 상에서 낮은 CLR(cell loss ratio)을 보장하는 ATM(asynchronous transfer mode) ABR(available bit rate) 서비스를 지원하기 위해서는 재전송이 요구된다. 무선 ATM에서는 ATM계층 하에 DLC(data link control)계층을 두어 DLC계층이 무선채널 상의 에러로 인해 요구되는 재전송과 재배열을 수행하도록 하여 높은 에러율을 갖는 무선채널의 특성이 낮은 에러율을 가정하여 설계된 ATM계층으로 전파되는 것을 막는다. 본 논문에서는 무선채널 상에서의 높은 에러율에 의한 전송률 감소를 반영하는 ABR 전송률 제어 방안을 제안함으로써 근원지의 전송률을 무선채널 상에서의 전송률에 보다 가깝게 맞추어 AP(access point)에서 발생할 수 있는 버퍼 오버플로우에 의한 셀손실을 줄였다. 채널의 상태를 ATM계층에 알리는 DLC계층을 가정한 모의실험을 통하여 제안하는 방안이 무선채널 상에서 기존의 방법보다 작은 크기의 ABR 큐를 사용하여 낮은 CLR을 보장함을 보였다. 또한 채널의 상태에 따라 전송률을 조정하는 DLC계층을 사용함으로써 무선 ATM에서 귀중한 자원인 무선링크를 보다 효율적으로 사용할 수 있음을 보였다.

Statement of problem : Implant screw loosening remains a problem in implant prosthodontics. Some abutment screws with treated surfaces were introduced to prevent screw loosening and to increase preload. DLC(Diamond Like Carbon) film has similar properties on hardness, wear resistance, chemical stability, biocompatibility as real diamond materials. Purpose : The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of lubricant layer on abutment screw and to discriminate more effective method between soft lubricant and hard lubricant to prevent screw loosening. Material and method : In this study, $1{\mu}m$ thickness DLC was used as protective, lubricating layer of titanium screws and 3 times removal torque was measured on the abutment screws to investigate the difference in 10 coated and 10 non-coated abutment screws. Results : The results indicated that the implants with DLC coating group were not more resistant to the applied force in screw loosening. At 32Ncm, the 3 times removal torque in DLC group were $27.75{\pm}2.89,\;25.85{\pm}2.35$ and $26.2{\pm}2.57$. The removal torque in no-coated abutment screws were $27.85{\pm}4.23,\;27.35{\pm}2.81$ and $27.9{\pm}2.31$, respectively. Conclusion : The lubricant layer used in this study was Diamond Like Carbon(DLC) and it have a properties of hard and stable layer. The DLC coating layer was hard enough to prevent distortion of screws in the repeated unscrewing procedure in clinical situation. The reduced friction coefficient in hard DLC layer was not effective to prevent screw loosening.

DLC는 고경도, 화학적 안정성 및 고내식성, 내마모성 및 낮은 마찰계수로 인하여 여러 산업분야의 표면처리기술로 적용되고 있다. 하지만 DLC의 절연특성은 전기 산업 분야에 적용 한계가 있다. 이번 연구에서는 DLC를 연료전지 중 PEMFC(고체산화물 연료전지)의 금속 분리판 표면처리에 적용시키고자 하였으며, 높은 전도성과 고내식성의 Me-DLC박막 제작을 목표로 하였다. Cr을 Buffer layer로 하고 Cr과 DLC를 동시에 증착한 Cr-DLC 박막을 제작하였다. Cr-DLC코팅의 기계적 특성을 확인하기 위하여 나노인덴터를 이용하여 경도 및 탄성률을 측정하였으며, ball-on disk를 이용하여 마찰계수를 확인하였다. 각 샘플들의 전기전도성을 확인하기 위하여 4-point probe system을 이용하여 측정하였으며, 부식 저항 특성을 확인하기 위하여 1mole $H_2SO_4$ + 2 ppm HF 분위기의 전해질 내에서 동전위 분극시험을 통한 내식성 테스트를 하였으며, XPS를 통하여 Cr-DLC박막내의 구조적 특성을 확인하였다.

일반적으로 무선 환경은 유선환경에 비하여 높은 오뉼을 가지기 때문에, 낮은 오율을 가지는 유선망의 DLC(Data Link Control)계층 프로토콜을 무선망에 그대로 적용하는 것은 적합하지 않다. 또한 기존의 무선망을 위한 DLC계층 프로토콜 역시 저속의 데이터 서비스에 최적화되어 있으므로, 고속화 및 멀티미디어화 되고 있는 현재의 무선 환경에는 적합하지 않다. 따라서, 오늘날의 이동통신 환경에 부합되는 새로운 DLC계층 프로토콜이 요구된다. 본 논문에서는 다양한 트래픽 속성을 지원하고, 고속 및 멀티미디어 데이터 서비스에 적합한 WATM (Wireless Asynchronous Transfer Mode)에서의 오류 제어 방안을 제시한다. 본 논문에서 제시하는 오류 제어 방안은 실시간 트래픽에 대해서 ASR ARQ(Adaptive Selective Repeat Automatic Repeat Request) 프로토콜의 ACK(acknowledgement)를 삭제하여 성능을 개선하고 오율이 클 때 FEC를 사용하여 손실율을 줄였다. 비실시간 트래픽에 대해서는 ACK를 삭제한 ASR ARQ를 사용하여 성능을 개선하고 오율이 클 때 FEC를 적용하여 지연시간을 줄였다. 시뮬레이션에 의한 성능 분석 결과, 본 논문에서 제안한 방안은 기\ulcorner의 ASR ARQ 프로토콜에 비하여 지연과 처리율 측면에서 개선된 성능을 나타내었다.
