The objective of this study was to evaluate total current under steady-state conditions for a material undergoing corrosion using the electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) technique, taking into account the presence of solution resistance and double layer capacitance. The analysis involving linearization of the Tafel curve allowed for the estimation of corrosion parameters. Results showed that the output signal was dependent on fundamental frequencies and their multiples. In addition, the output signal almost manifested itself at frequencies that were sums of fundamental frequencies of the applied sinusoidal signal. The harmonics calculated showed a significant shift from the principal frequency of input signals. The investigation involved the influence of corrosion current and anode-to-cathode Tafel slope ratio on faradaic and non-faradaic currents (including the average and RMS). The model presented showed both qualitative and quantitative improvements over the previously developed EFM technique that ignored the influence of solution resistance and the double layer capacitance while assuming the applied DC potential corresponded to the corrosion potential of the corroding material.

Trimethylammonium tetrafluoroborate (TriMA BF₄), consisting of the smallest trialkylammonium ion, was investigated for use in electrochemical double-layer capacitors. Despite the presence of a proton in TriMA⁺, cycle life tests in acetonitrile (AN) and -butyrolactone (GBL) showed a good capacity retention with a 1.8 V cut-off voltage. The rate of electrolysis of TriMA BF₄ in GBL was lower than that in AN because of the lower conductivity in GBL. As a consequence, the cells based on GBL achieved a higher capacitance and longer life than those with AN. TriMA BF₄ had a higher conductivity and lower viscosity than the quaternary salt tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate in GBL, as well as higher ionic mobility, these factors resulted in a higher rate capability.

Double layered BaTiO3 thin films with high dielectric constant as well as good insulating property were prepared for the application to low voltage driving thin film electroluminescent (TFEL) device. BaTiO3 thin films were formed by rf-magnetron sputtering technique. Amorphous and polycrystalline BaTiO3 thin films were deposited at the substrate temperatures of room temperature and 55$0^{\circ}C$, respectively. Two kinds of films prepared under these conditions showed high resistivity and high dielectric constant. The figure of merit (=$\varepsilon$r$\times$Eb.d) of polycrystalline BaTiO3 thin film was very high (8.43$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$). The polycrystalline BaTiO3 showed a substantial amount of leakage current (I), under the high electric field above 0.5 MV/cm. The double layered BaTiO3 thin film, i.e., amorphous BaTiO3 layer coated polycrystalline BaTiO3 thin film, was prepared by the new stacking method and showed very good dielectric and insulating properties. It showed a high dielectric constant fo 95 and leakage current density of 25 nA/$\textrm{cm}^2$ (0.3MV/cm) with the figure of merit of 20$\mu$C/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The leakage current density in the double layered BaTiO3 was much smaller than that in polycrystalline BaTiO3 under the high electric field. The saturated brightness of the devices using double layered BaTiO3 was about 220cd/$m^2$. Threshold voltage of TFEL devices fabricated on double layered BaTiO3 decreased by 50V compared to the EL devices fabricated on amorphous BaTiO3.

The thermal barrier coating (TBC) for inner wall of liquid-fuel rocket combustor consists of NiCrAlY as bonding layer and $ZrO_2$ as a top layer. In most case, the plasma spray coating is used for TBC process and this process has inherent possibility of cracking due to large difference in thermal expansion coefficients among bonding layer, top layer and metal substrate. In this paper, we suggest crack-free TBC process by using a precise electrodeposition technique. Electrodeposited Ni-P/Cr double layer has similar thermal expansion coefficient to the Cu alloy substrate resulting in superior thermal barrier performance and high temperature oxidation resistance. We studied the effects of phosphorous concentrations (2.12 wt%, 6.97 wt%, and 10.53 wt%) on the annealing behavior ($750^{\circ}C$) of Ni-P samples and Cr double layered electrodeposits. Annealing temperature was simulated by combustion test condition. Also, we conducted SEM/EDS and XRD analysis for Ni-P/Cr samples. The results showed that the band layers between Ni-P and Cr are Ni and Cr, and has no formed with heat treatment. These band layers were solid solution of Cr and Ni which is formed by interdiffusion of both alloy elements. In addition, the P was not found in it. The thickness of band layer was increased with increasing annealing time. We expected that the band layer can improve the adhesion between Cr and Ni-P.

본 논문에서는 접지된 2중 유전체층 사이의 완전도체띠 격자구조에 의한 TE(transverse electric) 산란문제를 전자파 수치해석 방법으로 알려진 PMM(point matching method)을 이용하여 해석하였다. 경계조건들은 미지의 계수를 구하기 위하여 이용하였고 산란 전자계는 Floquet 모드 함수의 급수로 전개하였으며, 도체띠의 해석을 위해 완전도체 경계조건을 적용하였다. 완전도체띠의 폭과 주기, 접지된 2중 유전체층의 비유전율과 두께 및 입사각에 대해 정규화 된 반사전력을 계산하였다. 최소값을 가지는 변곡점들의 대부분의 반사전력은 입사각 이외의 다른 방향으로 산란된다. 접지된 2중 유전체층을 가지는 제안된 구조에 대한 수치결과들은 기존 논문의 수치해석 결과들과 비교하여 매우 잘 일치하였다.

Transport of heavy metals such as Cd is affected by several rate-limiting processes including adsorption and desorption by exchange reactions in soils. In this study, column transport and batch kinetic experiments were performed to assess Cd mobility in a double-layered soil with a reclaimed saline and sodic soil (SSS) as top soil and macroporous granule (MPG) as a bottom layer. For individual soil layer having different physical and chemical properties, Cd was considered to be nonlinear reactivity with the soil matrix in layered soils. The dispersive equation for reactive solutes was solved with three types of boundary conditions for the interface between soil layers. The adsorption of Cd with respect to the saline-sodic sandy loam and the MPG indicated that the nature of the sites or the mechanisms involved in the sorption process of Cd was different and the amounts of Cd for both of samples increases with increasing amounts of equilibrium concentration whereas the amount of Cd adsorbed in saline-sodic sandy loam soil was higher than that in MPG. The results of breakthrough curve indicating relative Cd retardation accompanied by layer material and sequence during leaching showed that the number of pore volumes to reach the maximum relative concentration of 1 increased in the order of MPG, SSS, and double layer of SSS-MPG. Breakthrough curves (BTCs) from column experiments were well predicted with our double-layered model where independently derived solute physical and retention parameters were implemented.

In this study, we have fabricated pure titanium (Ti)/hydroxyapatite (HA) double layer coating on medical grade PEEK from magnetron sputtering system, an investigation was performed whether the surface can be had more improve bio-active for orthopedi/dental applications than that of non-coated one. Pure Ti and HA coating layer were obtained by a radio-frequency and direct current power magnetron sputtering system. The microstructures surface, mechanical properties and wettability of the pure Ti/HA double layer deposited on the PEEK were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), nano-indentation, and contact angle test. According to the EDS and XRD results, the composition and crystal structure of pure Ti and HA coated surface were verified. The elastic modulus and hardness value were increased by pure Ti and HA coating, and the pure Ti/HA double layer coating surface has the highest value. The contact angle showed higher value for pure Ti/HA double layered coating specimens than that of non-coated (PEEK) surface.

Polyazomethine type conjugated copolymers containing phenanthridine units, poly(PZ-PTI), were synthesized by Schiff-base reaction. This new conjugated copolymer exhibited improved solubility in common organic solvents due to the presence of alkyl side chains as well as phenanthridine groups. Double layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/$Alq_3$/Mg) light emitting diode (LED) exhibited enhanced EL emission and efficiency compared to that of single layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/Mg) LED. With increasing the thickness of $Alq_3$ layer in double layer (ITO/poly(PZ-PTI)/$Alq_3$/Mg) LED the emission peak gradually shifted to the single layer (ITO/$Alq_3$/Mg) LED, confirming good hole transporting behaviour of the synthesized conjugated copolymer.

Cylindrical space frame which have a mechanic property, a functional property, a aesthetic prioerty and so on, occupies one part of sin structures and after this, the using parts will be extended. But because this structure is made of network by combination of line elements there are many nodes the structural the structural behavior is very complicated and there can be a overall collapse of structure by buckling phenomenon if the external force reaches a limitation. In design for this structure, we must determinate layer by considering above mentioned property first of all. Therefore this study aimed at the comparison and the investigation of mechanical characteristics of single-layer and double-layer cylindrical space frame on views of behavior and buckling by use of rise ratio.

We have investigated the effects of an Ag capping layer on the emission characteristics of transparent organic light-emitting devices with Ca/Ag double-layer cathodes. The thickness of the Ag layer was varied from 10 to 30 nm, whereas the Ca was fixed to be a 10 nm in the Ca/Ag structure. The luminance and current efficiency on the cathode and anode sides are significantly dependent on the Ag thickness. For example, the current efficiency on the anode side increases from 8.4 to 11.7 cd/A, whereas, on the cathode side, it decreases from 3.2 to 0.2 cd/A as the Ag thickness increases from 10 to 30 nm. These changes in emission characteristics were investigated by measuring electroluminescence, transmission, and reflection spectra.
