Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are vertically grown inside high-aspect-ratio vertical pores of anodized aluminum oxide. A CNT catalyst layer is introduced by atomic layer deposition to the bottom of the pores, after which the CNTs are successfully grown from the layer using chemical vapor deposition. The CNTs formed a complete vertical conductive path. The conductivity of the CNT-vertical path is also measured and discussed. The present atomic layer deposition-incorporated catalyst deposition is predicted to enable the integration of CNTs with various challenging configurations, including high-aspect-ratio vertical channels or vertical interconnects.

Recently, the frequency of debris flow disaster has increased, which is one of the natural disasters during extremely heavy rainfall condition. This paper described the analysis method about deposition characteristics of debris flow using topographic characteristics of debris flow path. First, we observed topographic changes by differencing high- resolution LiDAR DEMs acquired before and after the occurrence of debris flow event. We assumed that deposition on outside of debris flow path was generated by movements due to the inertia of debris flows. Then, we analyzed three topographic characteristics of debris flow path: slope in flow direction, transition angle of flow path, and the net efficiency(L/H) of debris flows defined by the ratio of transport length(L) and elevation difference(H). We applied this method to Umyeon Mountain debris flow event in July 2011. The results showed that deposition on outside of debris flow path due to the inertia of debris flows was significantly related to the transition angle of debris flow path. Also, we figured out that there were more frequent such depositions in locations where the ratio of 'transition angle / (L/H)' is over 8.

This study the problem of deposition uniformity observed during Mist-CVD deposition experiments. The TRIZ's ADRIGE algorithm, a problem-solving technique, is utilized to systematically analyze the issue and propose solutions. Through problem and resource analysis, technical contradictions are identified regarding the precursor's volume and its path when it encounters the substrate. To resolve these contradictions, the concept of applying the principle of dimensional change to transform the precursor's three-dimensional path into a one-dimensional path is suggested. The chosen solution involves the design of an enhanced Mist-CVD system, which is evaluated for feasibility and analyzed using computational fluid dynamics. The analysis confirms that the deposition uniformity consistently follows a pattern and demonstrates an improvement in uniformity. The improved Mist-CVD equipment is validated through analysis, providing evidence of its feasibility and yielding satisfactory results.

Based on the convolutional neural network (CNN), a novel technique is investigated for lost gamma source detection in a room. The CNN is trained with the result of a GEANT4 simulation containing a gamma source inside a meshed room. The dataset for the training process is the deposited energy in the meshes of different n-step paths. The neural network is optimized with parameters such as the number of input data and path length. Based on the proposed method, the place of the gamma source can be recognized with reasonable accuracy without human intervention. The results show that only by 5 measurements of the energy deposited in a 5-step path, (5 sequential points 50 cm apart within 1600 meshes), the gamma source location can be estimated with 94% accuracy. Also, the method is tested for the room geometry containing the interior walls. The results show 90% accuracy with the energy deposition measurement in the meshes of a 5-step path.

As a promising and novel manufacturing technology, laser aided direct metal deposition (DMD) process produces near-net-shape functional metal parts directly from 3-D CAD models by repeating laser cladding layer by layer. The key of the build-up mechanism is the effective control of powder delivery and laser power to be irradiated into the melt-pool. A feedback control system using two sets of optical height sensors is designed for monitoring the melt-pool and real-time control of deposition dimension. With the feedback height control system, the dimensions of part can be controlled within designed tolerance maintaining real time control of each layer thickness. Clad nugget shapes reveal that the feedback control can affect the nugget size and morphology of microstructure. The pore/void level can be controlled by utilizing pulsed-mode laser and proper design of deposition tool-path. With the present configuration of the control system, it is believed that more innovation of the DMD process is possible to the deposition of layers in 3-D slice.

The use of additive manufacturing processes for the repair and remanufacturing of mechanical parts has attracted considerable attention because of strict environmental regulations. Directed energy deposition (DED) is widely used to retrofit mechanical parts. In this study, finite element analyses (FEAs) were performed to investigate the influence of the substrate phase and inclination angle on the heat transfer characteristics in the vicinity of Hastelloy X regions deposited via DED. FE models that consider the bead size and hatch distance were designed. A volumetric heat source model with a Gaussian distribution in a plane was adopted as the heat flux model for DED. The substrate and the deposited powder were S45C structural steel and Hastelloy X, respectively. Temperature-dependent thermal properties were considered while performing the FEAs. The effects of the substrate phase and inclination angle on the temperature distributions and depth of the heat-affected zone (HAZ) in the vicinity of the deposited regions were examined. Furthermore, the influence of deposition paths on depths of the HAZ were investigated. The results of the analyses were used to determine the suitable phase and inclination angle of the substrate as well as the appropriate deposition path.

Soil erosion, a critical environmental issue primarily driven by water and wind, has severe consequences, including the loss of fertile agricultural land, degradation of water quality, and sediment accumulation in riverbeds. This study utilized the SSEM (surface soil erosion model), a physically-based distributed model, to simulate the rainfall-runoff-sediment dynamics associated with short-term rainfall events in the Naerin River basin. A spatial analysis of erosion and deposition was conducted, taking into account topographical factors such as local slope and overland flow length. The study area was segmented into six sub-catchments using Strahler's stream order method to examine the correlation between geographic factors and erosion or deposition. The findings revealed that erosion was predominant within flow path distances of 0 - 1 km (adjacent to the river) and 3 - 4 km (in the upper catchment areas). Notably, deposition did not occur in areas beyond 2.5 km from the river. Furthermore, it was observed that average erosion depth increased on steeper slopes (exceeding 0.3 - 0.4 degrees), whereas deposition was absent in these steep slope classes.

In this study, Directed energy deposition (DED) among additive manufacturing is applied to repair damaged spindle key parts of planner miller. The material of the spindle key is SCM415, and the P21 Powder is used. In order to find the optimal deposition conditions for DED equipment, a single-line deposition experiment is conducted to analysis five parameters. The laser power affects the width, and the height is a parameter affected by coaxial gas and powder gas. In addition, laser power, powder feed rate, coaxial gas, and powder gas are parameters that affect dilution. Otimal deposition is that 400 W of laser power, 4.0 g/min of powder feed rate, 6.5 L/min of coaxial gas, 3.0 L/min of powder gas and 4.5 L/min of shield gas. By setting the optimum conditions, a uniform deposition cross section in the form of an ellipse can be obtained. Damage recovery process of spindle key consists of 3D shape design of the base and deposition parts, deposition path creation and deposition process, and post-processing. The hardness of deposited area with P21 powder on the SCM415 spindle key is 336 HV for the surface of the deposition, 260 HV for the boundary area, and 165 HV for the base material.

Thin films of diamond-like carbon(DLC) can be successfully deposited by using a magnetron plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method with an rf(13.56 MHz) plasma of $C_dH_8$. Plasma characteristics are analyzed as a function of the magnetic field. As the magnetic field increases, both electron temperature ($T_e$) and density ($n_e$)increase, but the negative dc self-bias voltage (-$V_{ab}$) decreases, irrespective of gas pressures in the range of 1~7 mTorr. High deposition rates have been obtained even at low gas pressures, which may be attributed to the increased mean free path of electrons in the magentron plasma. Effects of rf power and additive gas on the structural properties of DLC films aer also examined by using various technique namely, TED(transmissio electron diffraction) microanalysis, FTIR, and Raman spectroscopies.

High-density crossbar arrays based on storage class memory (SCM) are ideally suited to handle an exponential increase in data storage and processing as a central hardware unit in the era of AI-based technologies. To achieve this, selector devices are required to be co-integrated with SCM to address the sneak-path current issue that indispensably arises in such crossbar-type architecture. In this perspective, we first summarize the current state of tellurium-based threshold-switching devices and recent advances in the material, processing, and device aspects. We thoroughly review the physicochemical properties of elemental tellurium (Te) and representative binary tellurides, their tailored deposition techniques, and operating mechanisms when implemented in two-terminal threshold switching devices. Lastly, we discuss the promising research direction of Te-based selectors and possible issues that need to be considered in advance.
