The Komdok Pb-Zn deposit, which is the largest Pb-Zn deposit in Korea, is located at the Hyesan-Riwon metallogenic zone in Jiao Liao Ji belt included Paleoproterozoic Macheolryeong group. The geology of this deposit consists of Paleoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks, Jurassic Mantapsan intrusive rocks and Cenozoic basalt. The Komdok deposit which is a SEDEX type deposit occurs as layer ore and vein ore in the Paleoproterozoic metasedimentary rocks. Based on mineral petrography and paragenesis, dolomites from this deposit are classified four types (1. dolomite (D₀) as hostrock, 2. early dolomite (D₁) associated with tremolite, actinolite, diopside, sphalerite and galena from amphibolite facies, 3. late dolomite (D₂) associated with talc, calcite, quartz, sphalerite and galena from amphibolite facies, 4. dolomite (D₃) associated with white mica, chlorite, sphalerite and galena from quartz vein). The structural formulars of dolomites are determined to be Ca_1.00-1.20Mg_0.80-0.99Fe_0.00-0.01Zn_0.00-0.02(CO₃)₂(D₀), Ca_1.00-1.02M_0.97-0.99Fe_0.00-0.01Zn_0.00-0.02(CO₃)₂(D₁), Ca_0.99-1.03Mg_0.93-0.98Fe_0.01-0.05Mn_0.00-0.01As_0.00-0.01(CO₃)₂(D₂) and Ca_0.95-1.04Mg_0.59-0.68Fe_0.30-0.36Mn_0.00-0.01 (CO₃)₂(D₃), respectively. It means that dolomites from Komdok deposit have higher content of trace elements (FeO, MnO, HfO₂, ZnO, PbO, Sb₂O₅ and As₂O₅) compared to the theoretical composition of dolomite. These trace elements (FeO, MnO, ZnO, Sb₂O₅ and As₂O₅) show increase and decrease trend according to paragenetic sequence, but HfO₂ and PbO elements no show increase and decrease trend according to paragenetic sequence. Dolomites correspond to Ferroan dolomite (D₀, D₁ and D₂), and Ferroan dolomite and ankerite (D₃), respectively. Therefore, 1) dolomite (D₀) as hostrock was formed by subsequent diagenesis after sedimentation of Paleoproterozoic (2012~1700 Ma) silica-bearing dolomite in the marine evaporative environment. 2) Early dolomite (D₁) was formed by hydrothermal metasomatism origined metamorphism (amphibolite facies) associated with intrusion (1890~1680 Ma) of Paleoproterozoic Riwon complex. 3) Late dolomte (D₂) was formed from residual fluid by a decrease of temperature and pressure. and dolomite (D₃) in quartz vein was formed by intrusion (213~181 Ma) of Jurassic Mantapsan intrusive rocks.

Electric arc furnace dust (EAFD) contains compounds, such as oxides and chlorides, including large quantities of Zn, Pb and Fe. An efficient and stable method for the extraction of metal elements from EAFD is the Rotary Kiln Process. This method is used to recover Zn in the form of crude ZnO (approximately 60%) via the addition of a reducing agent (coke, anthracite) and limestone (for basicity control) to EAFD. This process is commonly used in industry as well as in research and development. Currently, this method is used in many Korean commercial plants, producing approximately 150,000 tons of Crude ZnO per year. The majority of Zn is found in crude ZnO (approximately 76%). In addition components such as Pb, Cd, Sn, In, Fe, Cl, and F are present as oxides, chlorides, and alkaline compounds. This elements have an adverse effect on the zinc smelting process. Therefore, a refining process that eliminates these impurities is essential. In this study, we developed a process technology that efficiently separates Zn and Pb from byproducts (mainly chlorides). A bag filter was used to collect Zn and Pb generated during the dry purification process of crude ZnO. Pure components were recovered as metals or metal carbonate.

We successfully synthesize water-dispersible CTAB-capped CdSe@ZnS quantum dots with the crystal size of the CdSe quantum dots controlled from green to orange colors. The quenching effect of Fe(DTC)₃ is very efficient to turn off the emission light of quantum dots at four molar ratios of the CdSe quantum dots, that is, the effective covering the surface of quantum dots with Fe(DTC)₃. However, the reaction with Fe(DTC)₃ for more than 24 h is required to completely realize the quenching effect. The highly quenched quantum dots efficiently detect nitric oxide at nano-molar concentration of 110nM of NO with 34% of recovery of emission light intensity. We suggest that Fe(DTC)₃-hybridized CdSe@ZnS quantum dots are an excellent fluorescence resonance energy transfer probe for the detection of nitric oxide in biological systems.

In the present study, the $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$-type interstitial materials have been prepared by reaction between Nb-free or Nb-containing $Sm_2Fe_{17}$-type alloy and $N_2$ gas. Nitrogenation behaviour of the $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$-type material and disproportionation characteristics of the nitrogenated materials have been studied by means of differential thermal analysis (DTA) and thermopiezic analysis (TPA). Magnetic properties of the produced $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$-type interstitial materials were characterised in vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) or thermomagnetic analyser (TMA). Epoxy-bonded or Zn-bonded $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$-type magnets were prepared, and their magnetic properties were investigated. It has been found that nitrogenation kinetics of the Sm2Fe17Nx-type alloy is improved significantly by the Nb-substitution for Fe in the alloy. The Nb-substitution is also found to enhance thermal stability of the $Sm_2Fe_{17}N_x$-type interstitial material. Hard magnetic properties of the interstitial materials produced from Nb-free orNb-containing alloy is high enough (intrinsic coercivity : over 7 kOe) for application as bonded permanent magnets. The good hard magnetic properties of the interstitial material are maintained in the epoxy-bonded magnet. Intrinsic coercivity of the Zn-bonded magnets is improved significantly as post-bonding annealing time increases.

Hot-dip Zn-Mg-Al coatings have a complex microstructure consisting of Zn, Al, and MgZn₂ phases. Its crystal structure depends on alloy content and cooling rates. Microstructure and corrosion resistance of these coatings might be affected by heat treatment. To investigate effect of heat treatment on microstructure and corrosion resistance of Zn-Mg-Al coatings, Zn-1.5%Mg-1.5%Al coated steel was heated up to 550 ℃ at a heating rate of 80 ℃/s and cooled down to room temperature. At above 500 ℃, the ternary phase of Zn-MgZn₂-Al was melted down. Only Zn and MgZn₂ phases remained in the coating. Heat- and non-heat-treated specimens showed similar corrosion resistance in Salt Spray Test (SST). When a Zn-3.0%Mg-2.5%Al coated steel was subjected to heat treatment at 100 ℃ or 300 ℃ for 200 h and compared with GA and GI coated steels, the microstructure of coatings was not significantly changed at 100 ℃. However, at 300 ℃, most Al in the coating reacted with Fe in the substrate, forming a Fe-Al compound layer in the lower part of the coating. MgZn₂ was preferentially formed in the upper part of the coating. As a result of SST, Zn-Mg-Al coated steels showed excellent corrosion resistance, better than GA and GI.

For fine control of operating temperature of shape memory alloy, we investigated the effect of thermal teratment of shape memory alloy with the impurity kind. The martensitic transformation temperature in a Cu-17.25Zn-15Al and Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Ag/Fe was measured using electrical resistivity as a function of quenching temperature. Order-disorder phase transition temperatures in parent phase were measured and kind of transition were distinguised by DSC(differential scanning calorimeter) with heating rate variation. And structual changes were studied with XRD. For the Cu-17.25Zn-15Al shape memory alloy, the order-disorder phase transition temperature, $T_{B2}$ and $T_{L21}$ was 809K and 610K and for the Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Ag and Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Fe specimen $T_{B2}$ and $T_{L21}$ was 794K and 610K, and 803K and 613K, respectively. In all the specimens, quenching from near $T_{B2}$ leads to an increase in martensitic temperature, whereas quenching from near $T_{L21}$ leads to an decrease in martensitic temperature.

Flue gases in the iron foundry consist of 15~20% CO2 as an air pollution gas whose emission should be mitigated in order to protect the environment. In the present study, ultrafine powders of NixZn1-xFe2O4 as a potential catalyst for the CO2 decomposition were prepared by the coprecipitation methods. Oxygen deficient ferrites (MeFe2O4-$\delta$) can decompose CO2 as C and O2 at a low temperature of about 30$0^{\circ}C$. The XRD result of synthesized ferrites showed the spinel structure of ferrites and ICP-AES and EDS quantitative analyses showed the composition similar with initial molar ratios of the mixed solution prior to reaction. The BET surface area of the (Ni, Zn)-ferrites was about 77~89.5$m^2$/g and their particle size was observed about 10~20 nm. The CO2 decomposition efficiency of the oxygen deficient (Nix, Zn1-x)-ferrites was the highest at x=0.3, and the ternary (Ni, Zn)-ferrites was better than that of binary Ni-ferrites.

We demonstrate that a partial loading of $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.5}Fe_2O_4$ (Ni-Zn ferrite) film remarkably improves impedance matching of electrically small $Ba_3Co_2Fe_{24}O_{41}$ ($Co_2Z$) hexaferrite antenna. A 3 ${\mu}m$ thick Ni-Zn ferrite film was deposited on a silicon wafer by the electrophoresis deposition process and post-annealed at $400^{\circ}C$. The fabricated Ni-Zn ferrite film has saturation magnetization of $268emu/cm^3$ and coercivity of 89 Oe. A partial loading of the Ni-Zn ferrite film on the $Co_2Z$ hexaferrite helical antenna increases antenna return loss to 24.7 dB from 9.0 dB of the $Co_2Z$ antenna. Experimental results show that impedance matching and maximum input power transmission to the antenna without additional matching elements can be realized, while keeping almost the same size as the $Co_2Z$ antenna size.

1차원 나노 와이어는 나노 디바이스를 구현하는데 있어 중요한 요소로 연구되고 있다. 하지만 나노 와이어를 바람직한 위치에 선택적으로 배열하는 부분은 해결할 과제로 남아있다. DNA 분자가 가지고 있는 음의 전하를 띄는 phosphate backbone과 자기조립 특성은 이러한 문제점들을 해결할 수 있는 중요한 요소이다. 본 연구에서는 DNA 분자 형틀을 이용해서 CdSe/ZnS core-shell 나노입자의 pH 의 변화에 따른 표면 전위 변화를 이용하여 선택적 위치의 나노입자 배열을 통한 나노 와이어를 제작하는 연구를 하였다. 1-step 방법을 이용하여 합성한 CdSe/ZnS core-shell 나노입자를 무극성 용매인 chloroform 용액에 분산시키고 dimethylaminoethanethiol (DMAET) 를 이용하여 표면을 양전하로 치환하였다. 그리고 치환한 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자 용액에 HCl 을 이용해서 pH 7, 6, 5, 4로 변화를 주어 zeta potential 변화를 측정하였고 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) 코팅된 Si 기판에 ${\lambda}$-DNA를 정렬하고 이를 형틀로 이용하여 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자를 정렬하는 실험을 하였고 FE-SEM 을 이용하여 측정하였다. 그 결과 CdSe/ZnS 나노입자의 pH 값이 작아지면서 전위가 커짐에 따라서 APTES 코팅된 기판 표면에 나노입자들이 반응하는 것보다 음전하를 띄는 ${\lambda}$-DNA의 phosphate backbone에 반응하는 것이 커짐에 따라 DNA 분자 형틀에 선택적으로 나노입자가 배열되는 것을 확인하였다.

The crystallographic and magnetic properties of $Fe_{0.9}Zn_{0.1}Cr_2S_4$ have been studied by X-ray diffractometer(XRD), vibrating sample magnetometer(VSM) and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy measurement. The crystal structure was determined by the normal cubic spinel of space group Fd3m and the lattice constant was $a_0=9.9967\;{\AA}$. The specific phenomenon which looks like cusp pattern at 77 K was observed in magnetization corves(ZFC : Zero Field Cooling) under 100 Oe applied field. $N\acute{e}el$ temperature($T_N$) was determined to be 153 K by VSM and $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectra. The asymmetric 8-line profile has been observed at 4.2 K, which was attributed by the colossal electric quadupole interaction(${\Delta}E_Q$), ${\Delta}E_Q$ has 2.22 mm/s at 4.2 K. The ${\Delta}E_Q$ abruptly decreases around 77 K and then it disappears above 77 K with diminishing of 8-line pattern. The isomer shift $\delta$ at room temperature is 0.48 mm/s relative to Fe metal, which means that the charge state of Fe ions is ferrous in character.
