In this letter, We have investigated cell characteristics of the alloy FePt-NDs charge trapping memory capacitors with high-k $Al_2O_3$ dielectrics as a blocking oxide. The capacitance versus voltage (C-V) curves obtained from a representative MOS capacitor embedded with FePt-NDs synthesized by the post deposition annealing (PDA) treatment process exhibit the window of flat-band voltage shift, which indicates the presence of charge storages in the FePt-NDs. It is shown that NDs memory with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide has performance in large memory window and low leakage current when the diameter of ND is below 2 nm. Moreover, high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide increases the electric field across the tunnel oxide, while reducing the electric field across the blocking layer. From this result, this device can achieve lower P/E voltage and lower leakage current. As a result, a FePt-NDs device with high-k $Al_2O_3$ as a blocking oxide obtained a~7V reduction in the programming voltages with 7.8 V memory.

The effect of hot-dip aluminizing on the corrosion of the low carbon steel was studied at $650-850^{\circ}C$ for 20-50 h in $N_2/0.5%\;H_2S$ gas. The aluminized steel consisted primarily of the Al topcoat and the underlying Al-Fe alloy layer. Aluminizing drastically improved the corrosion resistance by forming the ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$ surface scale. Without aluminizing, the steel formed nonadherent, fragile, thick scales, which consisted of FeS as the major phase and iron oxides such as FeO, $Fe_3O_4$ and $Fe_2O_3$ as minor ones.

Ni(Fe)Al powders containing a homogeneous distribution of the in-situ formed AIN and $Al_2O_3$ dispersoids have been produced by mechanical alloying process in a controlled atmosphere using high energy attrition mill. The powders have been successfully consolidated by hot extrusion process. The phase information investigated by TEM and XRD analysis reveals that Fe can be soluble up to 20% to the NiAl phase ($\beta$) at room temperature after MA process. Subsequent thermomechanical treatment under specific condition has been tried to induce secondary recrystallization (SRx) to improve high temperature properties, however, the clear evidence of SRx was not obtained in this material. Mechanical properties in term of strength at room temperature as well as at high temperatures have been improved by the addition pf AIN, and the room temperature ductility has been shown to be improved after heat treatment, presumably due to the precipitation of second phase of $\alpha$ in this material.

The oxidation behaviour of Fe-XAl-0.1Y(X= 5, 10, 14 wt.%) alloys were investigated at 1073, 1173 and 1273 K in oxygen/ nitrogen gas atmosphere for 1∼24 hrs using SEM/EDX, XRD and EPMA. The weight changes of Fe-XAl-0.1Y alloys followed the parabolic rate law. Oxidation rates of 10Al and 14Al alloys were ten times lower than that of 5Al alloys. This is attributed to the formations of protective $A1_2$$O_3$oxides on the surface of 10Al and 14Al alloys. The oxidation product scales of the 5Al alloy showed that thick iron oxide scales($Fe_2$$O_3$, $Fe_3$$O_4$) containing porosities formed during early stages of oxidation. With continued oxidation, aluminum oxide was formed at the alloy/scale interface.

In this study, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of 0.05Pb(AlS12/3TWS11/3T)OS13T-0.95Pb(ZrS10.52TTiS10.48T)OS13T system ceramics were investigated with respect to the variations of MnOS12T and FeS12TOS13T additions amounts. The results obtained in this study are summarized as follows: 1. As the amounts of MnOS12T and FeS12TOS13T are increased, tetragonality(c/a) and apparent density were decreased but grain size was increased, also the limits of solubility were revealed because pores were formed at the amounts of 0.3wt% MnOS12T and 0.5wt% FeS12TOS13T. 2. AS the increasing of amounts of MnOS12T and FeS12TOS13T, the temperature of phase transition(TS1cT) was decreased, and pemeability had maximum value at the amount of 0.3wt% MnOS12T but were sharply decreasd for the increasing FeS12TOS13T amounts. 3. As the amounts of MnOS12T and FeS12TOS13T are increased, the electro-mechanical coupling factor(kS1pT) was decreased from 60% to 41%, 19% respectively, but mechanical quality factor(QS1mT) had maximum values 720 for amount of 0.3wt% MnOS12T and 320 the amount of 0.5wt% FeS12TOS13T.

Chemical composition of fine sediments from Jeongdongjin area are analyzed with XRF method. The results are compared with previously reported results of sandstones of the nearest Simgok port. The weight percentage of $SiO_2$ of the samples are far lower than those of sandstones of Simgok. It is supposed to be happened by the selective elution of $SiO_2$ from the sediment layer of coastal terrace, as there's no evidence of selective input or precipitation of other elements from outside. As a result of chemical alteration or weathering of sediment at coastal terrace, weight percentage of $Al_2O_3$ and $Fe_2O_3$ of samples show far higher values than those of Simgok sandstone. In addition, the relative portion of $Al_2O_3$ and $Fe_2O_3$ are decreased to upward within outcrop of terrace sediment layers. It could be caused by the chemical weathering progress with time. However Chemical Index of alteration(CIA) of sediment samples are no larger than 90 and it could be interpreted that it would take over 100ka for total weathering of sediment in this area. Meanwhile the ratio of $SiO_2/Al2O_3$ of terrace sediment showed as 3.48~6.0 and it is far smaller than those of Simgok sandstones(23.9~49.0). The ratio of $SiO_2/Fe_2O_3$ of terrace sediment(19.19~55.85) showed similar pattern with $SiO_2/Al2O_3$ (Simgok sanstone: 119.6~601.8). The ratios have a weak trend of decreasing upwards within the outcrop, there also a huge difference in value among the samples. Chemical composition of reddish brown and gray layers which suspected as the result of psudogleization reveals that reddish brown parts have higher concentration of $Fe_2O_3$ than other parts, while there was no significant difference in concentration of $Al_2O_3$ and CaO.

Aoolphane was treated with 30% Hydrochloric acid at $18^{\circ}C$ for two hows with stirring in order to obtain the insoluble form of SiO2 gel and to extract quantitatively both $Al_2O_3$as and $Fe_2O_3AlCl_3{\cdot}6H_2O Fe$ and $Cl_3{\cdot}6H_2O$ forms, respectively, at the same time. $SiO_2$ gel was filtered and to the filterate Ammonia was added to precipitate $Al(OH)_3[Fe(OH)_3 Contaminated ]$ The precipitate was separated by filteration and the filterate was recovered as the form of $NH_4Cl$. The precipitate was treated with 200g (NaOH)/l Concentration of NaOH a little excessively to the equivalent at $65~70^{\circ}C$ as $Fe(OH)_3$ formed was insoluble, it was filtered of and to the filterate containing $NaAl(OH)_4(OH_2)_2$Carbon dioxide gas was bubbled at $50^{\circ}C~90^{\circ}C$ to obtain the precipitate with excellent filterability and crystallinity. The product was certified to be Dawsonite $(NaAl(OH)_2CO_3)$ by X-Ray diffraction analysis at below $40^{\circ}C$, when $CO_2$ gas was bubbled into the relatively lower concentration of $NaAl(OH)_4(OH_2)_2$ solution, the precipitate of very fine particles was formed, which was hard to filter and with the Composition of $\alpha-Al_2O_3-H_2O$ (Boehmite).

[ $M/Al_2O_3$ ] (M = Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu) catalysts supported on commercial alumina ($Al_2O_3$) were prepared by an impregnation method, and were applied to the hydrogen production by auto-thermal reforming of ethanol. It was revealed that each catalyst retained its own metallic phase and product distribution strongly depended on the identity of active metal. Among the catalysts prepared, $Ni/Al_2O_3$ and $Co/Al_2O_3$ showed the best catalytic performance in the auto-thermal reforming of ethanol. However, the reaction mechanisms over these two catalysts were different. Ni/Al_2O_3 catalyst showed 100% ethanol conversion at $500^{\circ}C$, but it exhibited a rapid decrease in hydrogen selectivity. Although $Co/Al_2O_3$ catalyst showed an excellent performance in hydrogen selectivity, on the other hand, no significant improvement in hydrogen yield was observed due to the low ethanol conversion over the catalyst.

$NiFe/Co/Al_2O_3/Co/IrMn$ tunneling junctions were grown on (100)Si wafer and their spin-valve tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) was studied. The tunneling junctions were grown by using a 5-gun RF/DC magnetron sputter. $Al_2O_3$ barrier layer was formed by exposing Al layer to oxygen atmosphere at 6$0^{\circ}C$ for 72 hours. Strong exchange coupling interaction is observed between the ferromagnetic Co and the antiferromagnetic IrMn of Co/IrMn bilayer when IrMn is 100$\AA$ thick. $NiFe(183\;{\AA})/Co(17\;{\AA})/Al_2O_3(16\;{\AA})/Co(100\;{\AA})/IrMn(100\;{\AA})$ tunneling junction shows best TMR ratio of about 10% in the applied magnetic field range of $\pm$20 Oe. The TMR ratio is improved about 23% and electrical resistance is decreased about 34% when annealed at 200 $^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour in magnetic field of 330 Oe, parallel to the bottom electrode. With increasing the active area of junction the TMR ratio increases while electrical resistance decreases.
