Pulsed lasers at the 613 nm and 1064 nm wavelengths on nanoseconds have been utilized to characterize the damage on Si photodiode exposed to intense illumination. Morphological damages and structural changes at sites on the photodiode irradiated during microseconds of laser pulses were analyzed by FE-SEM images and XRD patterns, respectively. The removal of oxide coating, ripple, melting marks, ridges, and crater on photodiodes were definitely observed in order of increasing the pulse intensities generated above the damage threshold. Then, the degradation in photosensitivity of the Si photodiode irradiated by high power density pulses was measured as a function of laser irradiation time at the various wavelengths. The free charge carrier and thermal diffusion mechanisms could have been invoked to characterize the damage. The relative photosensitivity data calculated using the thermal diffusion model proposed in this paper have been compared with the experimental data irradiated above the damage threshold.

In this study, the effect of laser source($CO_2$ and Nd:YAG) on the microstructure and tensile properties of laser welded Al-Si coated boron steel(1.2mmt) was investigated with before and after hot-stamping. In case of as welds condition, fracture occurred in base metal unrelated to the laser source. It could be explained that tensile strength of fusion zone composed of martensite and bainite is higher than that of base metal that contains a lot of ferrite despite dilution of Al and Si from coating layer to fusion zone. In case of hot-stamping condition, the fracture occurred in fusion zone irrelevant to laser source and the tensile strength was lower than hot stamped base metal. In the $CO_2$ laser welds, $Fe_3$(Al,Si) formed near the bond line was transformed into ferrite during hot-stamping. Therefore tensile strength of bond line is lower than that of base metal and center of fusion zone and the fracture occurred in the bond line. On the other hand, in the Nd:YAG laser welds, the higher concentration of Al formed the ferrite in the fusion zone during hot-stamping treatment. Also, the thickness of centerline was thinner than that of base metal. Therefore, it is considered that fracture occurred in centerline of fusion zone due to effect of concentration stress, and it leaded to a lower tensile strength and elongation.

Titanium (Ti) is a bioinert material and has lower elastic coefficient and better strength/volume property than other metals. Ferroelectric materials show alignment of positive and negative charges by poling treatment. This study was purposed to develop a new implant system by combining the advantages of Ti and ferroelectric property of $BaTiO_3$ (BTO). It was performed with the assumption that the $Ca^{2+ }$ ions would be easily attracted on negatively charged surface and the attracted cation might behave as nuclei for bone-like crystal growth in biological solutions. A ferroelectric BTO thin film on Ti was fabricated and the effect of poling treatment on the improvement of calcium phosphate (Ca-P) formation in biological solutions was evaluated. After immersion in Eagle’s minimum essential media (MEM) solution, NaCl was formed on Ti, and Ca-P layer containing NaCl was formed on Ti-O. Weak and sparse Ca-P layers were formed on BTO, while thick, homogeneous, and dense Ca-P layer was formed on negatively polarized BTO (N-BTO), which was confirmed by FE-SEM and EDX. In summary, these results demonstrate that poling the ferroelectric BTO surface negatively is effective for the formation of Ca-P layer in MEM solution, and that N-BTO coating on Ti could be used as a possible alternative method for enhancing the osseointegration of the implants.

Generally, steel is the most commonly used in the industry because of good strength, processability and cost-effectiveness. Steel can be surface-treated such as coating or used as an alloy by adding elements such as Cr, Ni, Zr, and Al to increase corrosion resistance. However, even if steel is used in same environment corrosion resistance is sharply lowered when it is exposed to a high temperature for a fixed or extended period of time due to an overload or other factors. In particular, the use of hot-dip aluminized plated steel, which is used in high-temperature atmospheres, is increasing due to the surface Al₂O₃ oxide film. This steel necessitates an urgent solution as issues of corrosion resistance limitations often appear. It is an important issue that not only cause analysis but also the research for the surface treatment method that can be solved. Thus, in this study, Cr in which it is expected to be effective in corrosion resistance and heat resistance attempted to deposit on hot dip aluminized plated steel with PVD sputtering. And it was possible to present the surface treatment application of various types of industrial equipment exposed to high temperature and basic design guidelines for use by confirming the corrosion resistance of hot dip Al-Si plated steel with Cr film deposited at high temperature.

We proposed a simple process of creating electroconductive textiles by using PEDOT:PSS(Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate))/non-oxidized graphene to coat polyamide or polyurethane knitted fabric for smart healthcare purposes. Electroconductive textiles were obtained through a coating process that used different amounts of PEDOT:PSS/non-oxidized graphene solutions on polyamide/polyurethane knitted fabric. Subsequently, the surface, electrical, chemical, weight change, and elongation properties were evaluated according to the ratio of PEDOT:PSS/non-oxidized graphene composite(1.3 wt%:1.0 wt%; 1.3 wt%:0.6 wt%; 1.3 wt%:0.3 wt%) and the number of applications(once, twice, or thrice). The specimens' surface morphology was observed by FE-SEM. Further, their chemical structures were characterized using FTIR and Raman spectroscopy. The electrical properties measurement (sheet resistance) of the specimens, which was conducted by four-point contacts, shows the increase in conductivity with non-oxidized graphene and the number of applications in the composite system. Moreover, a test of the fabrics' mechanical properties shows that PEDOT:PSS/non-oxidized graphene-treated fabrics exhibited less elongation and better ability to recover their original length than untreated samples. Furthermore, the PEDOT:PSS/non-oxidized graphene polyamide/polyurethane knitted fabric was tested by performing tensile operations 1,000 times with a tensile strength of 20%; Consequently, sensors maintained a constant resistance without noticeable damage. This indicates that PEDOT:PSS/non-oxidized graphene strain sensors have sufficient durability and conductivity to be used as smart wearable devices.

The theoretical capacity of silicon-based anode materials is more than 10 times higher than the capacity of graphite, so silicon can be used as an alternative to graphite anode materials. However, silicon has a much higher contraction and expansion rate due to lithiation of the anode material during the charge and discharge processes, compared to graphite anode materials, resulting in the pulverization of silicon particles during repeated charge and discharge. To compensate for the above issues, there is a growing interest in SiO_x materials with a silica or carbon coating to minimize the expansion of the silicon. In this study, spherical silica (SiO₂) was synthesized using TEOS as a starting material for the fabrication of such SiO_x through heating in a reduction atmosphere. SiO_x powder was produced by adding PVA as a carbon source and inducing the reduction of silica by the carbothermal reduction method. The ratio of TEOS to distilled water, the stirring time, and the amount of PVA added were adjusted to induce size and morphology, resulting in uniform nanosized spherical silica particles. For the reduction of the spherical monodisperse silica particles, a nitrogen gas atmosphere mixed with 5 % hydrogen was applied, and oxygen atoms in the silica were selectively removed by the carbothermal reduction method. The produced SiO_x powder was characterized by FE-SEM to examine the morphology and size changes of the particles, and XPS and FT-IR were used to examine the x value (O/Si ratio) of the synthesized SiO_x.

Al-Zn-Mg-Si alloy coatings have been developed to inhibit corrosion of cold rolled steel sheets, and an understanding of the alloy system helps prevent coating defects. We used a Bridgman furnace to characterise the nature and formation mechanisms of the phases present in the quaternary system with 0.4 wt% Fe. In the directional solidification experiments we imposed steep temperature gradients and varied the pull rate. After the samples were quenched in the furnace, detailed characterization of the samples was carried out by electron microscopy (SEM/EDS). From the dT/dt vs T plots of the cooling curves of the alloys, the solidification path was determined to be $Liquid{\longrightarrow[80]^{544-558}}{\alpha}-Al{\longrightarrow[80]^{453-459}}Al/Mg_2Si{\longrightarrow[80]^{371-374}}Al/Zn{\longrightarrow[80]^{331-333}}Zn/mgZn_2$. The formation mechanisms of the Mg and Zn containing phases and their morphology was discussed together with the effects of the cooling rate. Key findings include the lengthening of the mushy zone in directionally solidified samples remelted against a positive temperature gradient, as well as an enrichening of the α-Al phase by Zn through remelting. Mg₂Si and other Si based phases were observed to adopt a much finer faceted microstructure in favour of a script-like microstructure when exposed to the higher cooling rate of coolant quenching.

본 연구에서는 유리질 탄소 전극 표면에 혼성원자가를 가지는 무기 금속 고분자 막을 도포한 변형전극을 제조하고, 이들 변형전극의 전기화학적인 특성을 순환 전압 전류법으로 조사하였다. 그리고 이들 변형전극들을 작업전극으로 하여 메탄올과 L-ascorbic acid의 양극산화 거동을 조사하였다. Mixed valence rethenium oxo/cyanoruthenate(mv Ru-O/CN-Ru) 막, mv ruthenium oxo/cyanoferrate(mv Ru-O/$Fe(CN)_6$) 막, 및 mv ruthenium oxo/cyanoruthenate/Rhodium(mv Ru-O/CN-Ru/Rh) 막을 각각 도포하는 과정은 지정된 전위범위를 50 mV/sec의 주사속도로 전위를 걸어줌으로써 쉽게 도포할 수 있었으며, 동일한 과정을 반복 주사함으로써 막의 두께를 조절 하였다. 메탄올의 양극 산화거동을 조사한 결과는 다음과 같았다. mv Ru-O/CN-Ru 변형전극에서 메탄올의 검정곡선은 농도 기울기가 $-7.552{\mu}A/mM$로서 10 mM에서 80 mM 까지의 농도범위에서 비교적 좋은 감도를 보였다. mv Ru-O/$Fe(CN)_6$ 변형 전극의 경우에 농도 기울기는 $-5.13{\mu}A/mM$ 이었지만, 농도에 대한 전류관계의 직선 범위는 10 mM에서 100 mM까지로서 Ru 고분자 막 변형전극보다 더 넓은 범위에서 좋은 직선관계를 보였다. mv Ru-O/CN-Ru 막을 두 종류의 바탕전극에 각각 도포한 변형전극에 대하여 L-ascorbic acid의 양극 산화거동을 조사한 결과, 유리질 탄소 전극에 Ru 고분자 막을 입힌 변형전극이 Rh 막을 도포한 유리질 탄소전극에 Ru 고분자 막을 입힌 변형전극(mv Ru-O/CN-Ru/Rh)에서 보다 감도가 예민하였다. Ru 고분자 막 변형전극을 사용했을 경우에 검정곡선은 0.1 mM에서 5 mM 까지의 L-ascorbic acid 농도 범위에서 직선관계를 보였고, 기울기와 상관계수는 각각 $-84.78{\mu}A/mM$, 0.998이었다.

본 연구에서는 기존 배관설비 분야에서 다양한 용도로 사용되고 있는 Polly-Pigs를 이용한 건물내 급수관의 스케일을 제거하기 위한 공법을 개발하여 이를 평가하였다. 15mm 노후관의 세관실험결과, KDP series에 의해서 직관부 또는 곡관부의 통수능은 3.5~15.4%까지 증가되는 것으로 나타났으며, 육안분석결과 대부분 제거가 이루어진 부분은 적색 스케일($Fe_2O_3{\cdot}3H_2O$)이었으며, 흑색 스케일($Fe_2O_4{\cdot}nH_2O$)의 제거에는 한계가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 KDP series의 겉표면에서 Fine sand를 coating한 KDPS series에 의해서는 sand의 효과로 노후관의 통수능이 13.0~17.9%까지 증가되어 통수능이 95.9~99.5%까지 높게 회복되는 것으로 나타났으며, 대부분의 흑색 스케일도 크게 제거되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 Cleaning v/v의 나선형 가이드 베인(Helical guide vane)과 Pigs의 회전날개(Rotating wing)의 영향으로 주행시 Pigs의 회전력은 크게 향상되어 16배이상 회전수가 증가하는 것으로 나타났다. 이로 인해 100mm 급수관의 세관에서는 통수능이 90%인 노후관이 세관 후 통수능이 완전히 회복되는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 15mm 급수관에 비하여 매우 낮은 압력하에서도 세관효과가 높은 것으로 나타나 관경이 클수록 세관에 필요한 세관압력은 크게 감소되며, 세관효과는 증가되는 것으로 나타났다.

대부분의 석조문화재는 외부 환경에 노출되어 있어 외관이 크게 변형되어졌고, 특히 최근의 산업화와 환경오염물질의 영향으로 풍화가 가속화되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 석조문화재의 풍화에 미치는 환경영향을 알아보기 위해 산성용액과 염분용액에 신선한 화강암을 침수한 후 물리 화학적 특성을 조사하였고, 석조문화재 보존 방법의 일환으로 화강암에 $TiO_2$ 광촉매를 코팅한 후 코팅이 화강암의 풍화에 미치는 영향도 조사하였다. 산성용액과 염분용액에 신선한 화강암을 침수시켰을 때 8가지 광물성분(Si, Mg, Ca, Na, K, Fe, Mn, Al)의 용출량은 반응초기에 급격히 증가하였고 암석 표면의 구성광물들은 대부분 신선한 화강암(fresh granite)보다 낮은 농도값을 나타내어 산성용액이나 염분용액에 의한 풍화의 영향 정도를 확인할 수 있었다. 실험 전 후의 화강암의 물리적 특성 분석 결과, 강제 풍화시킨 시료의 밀도는 평균 $2.55-2.56\;g/cm^3$으로 신선한 화강암(평균밀도는 $2.60\;g/cm^3$)에 비해 약간 낮은 값을 보였고 압축강도는 신선한 화강암에 배해 아주 낮았지만 포아송비는 상대적으로 약간 높은 값을 나타내었다. 또한 강제풍화시킨 석재의 흡수율은 $0.481{\sim}0.836%$로서 신선한 화강암에 비해 1.2-2.1배 정도 높게 나타났다. $TiO_2$ 광촉매를 화강암에 코팅한 후 산성용액과 염분용액에 의한 강제풍화시 광물성분의 용출율과 함수율 등이 많이 저감되어 석조문화재의 풍화속도를 완화시키는 것으로 나타나 석조문화재의 표면에 $TiO_2$ 코팅 처리를 하면 석조문화재의 풍화를 예방하는 효과가 있을 것으로 나타났다.
