Epitaxially grown Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$thin films were prepared on LaAlO$_3$substrates by the dipping pyrolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials Homogeneous Pb-Zr-Ti solutions with toluene were spin-coated onto the substrates and pyrolyzed at 50$0^{\circ}C$ Highly oriented Pb(Zr, Ti)O$_3$films confirmed by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans were obtained by heat-treated at 75$0^{\circ}C$ in air The X-ray pole-figure analysis and reciprocal-space mapping of the resulting 0.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ films showed that the thin films comprising the c-axis oriented tetragonal phase have an epitaxial relationship with the LaAlO$_3$substrates.

Bismuth titanate thin films were prepared on {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }}(100) and Si(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis pro-cess using metal naphthenates as starting materials. crystallinity and in-phase alignment of the films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and $\beta$ scans (pole-figures) respectively. Highly c-axis-oriented {{{{ { { {Bi }_{4 }Ti }_{3 }O }_{12 } }} thin films with smooth surfaces were obtained after heat treatment at 75$0^{\circ}C$ on {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }}(100) sub-strate while the films grown of Si(100) exhibited polycrstalline characteristics. C-axis oriented film show-ed an epitaxial relationship with the {{{{ { SrTiO}_{3 } }} substrate.

Epitaxial Pb(Zr, Ti)O3(PZT) thin films were prepared on MgO(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis (DP) process using metal naphthenates as starting materials, and effects of pyrolysis and final heat-treatment conditions on the film's orientation were investigated. Solid-state epitaxial growth of PZT proceeds at lower temperature around 650℃ from the precursor pyrolyzed at 350 and 500℃. The in-plane alignment of the PZT films depends not only on the final heat-treatment temperature but on the pyrolysis conditions; the films, pyrolyzed at a higher temperature for a short time, i.e., at 500℃ for 10 min, exhibited stronger orientation after the same final heat treatment at 650°∼750℃. The PZT films with the strongest orientation were prepared by pyrolysis under the above conditions followed by final heat treatment at 750℃.

$Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$ (Pb:Zr:Ti=1:0.52:0.48) thin films were prepared on single crystal MgO(100) substrates by dipping-pyrolysis process using a solution of constituent metal naphthenates as starting materials. The solution was spin-coated onto substrate and the precursor films were pyrolyzed at $200^{\circ}C$ in air or at $200^{\circ}C$ in argon for 1, 2, 5 and 24h, followed by final heat treatment at $750^{\circ}C$. For all the films, highly (h00)/(00l)-oriented Pb$Pb(Zr, Ti)O_3$ thin films with smooth surfaces and crack-free were obtained, whereas thin film pyrolyzed in air for 24 h exhibited polycrystalline character. According to the pole-figure analysis, epitaxy of the product films was found to depend on pyrolysis atmosphere.

Pb(Zr, Ti)O3 (PZT) (Zr:Ti= 52: 48) thin films were prepared on MgO(100) substrates by dipping-py-rolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials. Thin films were fabricated by spin coating technique and the precursor films were prefired at 20$0^{\circ}C$ in air for 0.5, 1, 2, 3, and 24 h followed by final heat treatment at 75$0^{\circ}C$ for 30min. Film prefired for 24 h lost orientational properties and pole figure analysis showed the lost of the epitaxial relationship between the films and substrate while highly a/c-axis oriented thin films were obtained for the samples prefired for 1, 2, and 3h.

Epitaxially grown $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films on the MgO(100) substrates was prepared by dipping-pyrolysis process using metal naphthenates as starting materials. The films annealed at various temperatures were charactrized by X-ray diffraction $\theta$-2$\theta$ scans and pole-figure analysis ($\beta$ scanning). Highly c-axia oriented Bi4Ti3O12 films were crystallized by heat-treatment at 700$^{\circ}$ and 75$0^{\circ}C$ from precursor films pyrolyzed at 50$0^{\circ}C$. The X-ray pole-figure analysis indicated that the $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have an epitaxial relationship with the MgO(100) substrates.

In this study, we developed the h-BN interphase for ceramic matrix composites (CMCs) through a wet chemical coating method, which has excellent price competitiveness and is a simple process as a departure from the existing high cost chemical vapor deposition method. The optimum condition for nitriding an h-BN interphase using boric acid and urea as precursors were derived, and the h-BN interphase coating through a wet method on a carbon preform of 2.5 D was conducted to apply the optimum conditions to the CMCs. In order to control the coating property via the wet coating method, four parameters were investigated such as dipping time of the specimen in the precursor solution, the ratio of boric acid and urea in the precursor, the concentration of solution where the precursor was dissolved, and the cycle of dipping and dry process. The CMCs was fabricated through polymer impregnation and pyrolysis (PIP) processes and a three-point flexural strength test was conducted to verify the role of the coated h-BN interphase.

We have developed an environment-friendly etching process, an alternative to the dichromic acid etching process, as a pretreatment of acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene (ABS) plastic for electroless plating. In order to plate ABS plastic in an electroless way, there should be fine holes on the surface of the ABS plastic to enhance mechanically the adhesion strength between the plastic surface and the plate. To make these holes, the surface was coated uniformly with dispersed chemical foaming agents in a mixture of environmentally friendly dispersant and solvent by the methods of dipping or direct application. The solvent seeps into just below the surface and distributes the chemical foaming agents uniformly beneath the surface. After drying off the surface, the surface was heated at a temperature well below the glass transition temperature of ABS plastic. By pyrolysis, the chemical foaming agents made fine holes on the surface. In order to discover optimum conditions for the formation of fine holes, the mixing ratio of the solvent, the dispersant and the chemical foaming agent were controlled. After the etching process, the surface was plated with nickel. We tested the adhesion strength between the ABS plastic and nickel plate by the cross-cutting method. The surface morphologies of the ABS plastic before and after the etching process were observed by means of a scanning electron microscope.
