  • SrCO3 TiO2, 그리고 Nb2O5를 출발원료로 하여 환원분위기하에서 반도성 SrTiO3 소결첼르 제조하였다. 반도성 다결정 소결체 내에서 acceptor 역할을 할 수 있는 Na과 K 이온을 입계를 따라 80$0^{\circ}C$~120$0^{\circ}C$ 온도범위에서 확산시킨 후, 열처리조건에 따른 입계의 전기적 화학적 특성을 고찰하였다. 이차열처리한 소결체의 입계에는 일정한 전기적 포텐셜장벽과 이에 상관된 전자고갈영역이 형성되어 비선형적인 전류-전압 특성을 보이고 문턱전압(threshold voltage)은 10~70V, 입계포텐셜장벽은 0.1~2eV의 크기를 나타내었다. Na과 K 이온은 입계로부터 입자내부로 확산하여 20~50 nm 깊이의 확산층을 형성하며, 이들 확산층에서 Na 또는 K과의 치환에 기인하여 Sr농도가 감소하였으며 치환에 따른 전기적 중성유지를 위하여 산소 vacancy 농도가 증가하였다.

  • The effect of interstitial elements on the ductile-brittle transition behavior of austenitic Fe-18Cr-10Mn-2Ni alloys with different nitrogen and carbon contents was investigated in this study. All the alloys exhibited ductile-brittle transition behavior because of unusual low-temperature brittle fracture, even though they have a faced-centered cubic structure. With the same interstitial content, the combined addition of nitrogen and carbon, compared to the sole addition of nitrogen, improved the low-temperature toughness and thus decreased the ductile-brittle transition temperature (DBTT) because this combined addition effectively enhances the metallic component of the interatomic bonds and is accompanied by good plasticity and toughness due to the increased free electron concentration. The increase in carbon content or of the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, however, could increase the DBTT since either of these causes the occurrence of intergranular fracture that lead to the deterioration of the toughness at low temperatures. The secondary ion mass spectroscopy analysis results for the observation of carbon and nitrogen distributions confirms that the carbon and nitrogen atoms were significantly segregated to the austenite grain boundaries and then caused grain boundary embrittlement. In order to successfully develop austenitic Fe-Cr-Mn alloys for low-temperature application, therefore, more systematic study is required to determine the optimum content and ratio of carbon and nitrogen in terms of free electron concentration and grain boundary embrittlement.

  • The magnetic and structural properties of FINEMET (the Hitachi product name of the Fe-Si-B-Nb-Cu alloy) nanopowder with a composition of $Fe_{73.5}Si_{13.5}B_9Nb_3Cu_1$ atomic percent were investigated after annealing, chemical etching, and mechanical milling. The primary and secondary crystallization temperatures were 523 and $550^{\circ}C$, respectively. The grain size of the particles was adjusted by annealing time. Optimally annealed particles exhibited a homogenous microstructure composed of nanometer-sized crystalline grains. The grain boundary of the annealed particles was etched preferentially by chemical etching. Chemically etched particles were broken at the grain boundary by high-energy ball milling. As a result, a nanometer-sized FINEMET powder with a uniform size of crystalline grains was fabricated.

  • 새로운 소결법인 방전플라즈마소결법(SPS: Spark Plasma Sintering)으로 제조된 $ZrB_2$-ZrC 복합체의 결정립 방위분포 및 결정입계의 특성을 EBSP(Electron Back-Scattered Pattern)법으로 분석하여 상압소결법(PLS, Pressureless Sintering)에 의한 시편과 비교하였다. 방전플라즈마 소결법으로 제조된 시편의 $ZrB_2$ 결정립은 상압소결된 시편과는 다르게 (0001)면이 시편표면에 수직한 배향(normal direction)을 나타냈으며, ZrC 결정립은 두 경우 무질서한 배향을 나타냈다. 결정입계 특성 분석에서 low angle $(<15^{\circ})$의 분포는 상압소결법인 경우 전체 입계 중 약 10%, 방전플라즈마 소결법은 8%로 두 소결체에서 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나, CSL(Coincident Site Lattice) 입계의 분포에서는 방전플라즈마 소결법으로 제조된 복합체에서 $\Sigma$ 3,5,7,9,11의 CSL 분포가 상압소결법에 비해 높은 분율을 나타냈다.

  • $RU_{1-x}Ir_xO_2$ films were deposited on the quartz substrate by a spray pyrolysis method. The x-ray diffraction patterns showed that the structure of the $RU_{1-x}Ir_xO_2$ film was tetragonal and the lattice constant $a_o$ and $c_o$ were increased from 4.495 A to 4.058 A and from 3.092A to 3.156 A, respectively as the Ir composition varied from 0.0 to 1.0. The $RU_{1-x}Ir_xO_2$ film was metallic and the resistivity of the samples was increased from $7{\times}10^{-5}{\Omega}\textrm{cm}$ to $48{\times}10^{-5}{\Omega}\textrm{cm}$ with increasing the Ir x. The surface of the sample was slightly roughed, the grain size and the grain boundary width were increased as the Ir composition varied from 0.0 to 1.0.

  • An experimental method to investigate the fracture strength and fracture toughness for the silicon nitrides sintered at various sintering temperature is established. The erosion rate for these materials in the various concentration of NaOH solution is also investigated. In result, the fracture strength of Si3N4 is decreased with the increase of sintering temperature. On the other hand, the fracture toughness KIC is increased with the increase of sintering temperature. The erosion rate of silicon nitride in the NaOH solution depend largely on the grain size and the concentration of NaOH solution. The erosion rate of silicon nitride sintered at $1800^{\circ}C$ was much higher than that at $1950^{\circ}C$. These results are due to the unique columnar structure of silicon nitride.

  • Magnetic multilayers of a ferromagnetic (FM)/insulator (I)/ferromagnetic (FM) structure have been studied to investigate magnetic exchange coupling between two FM layers. As the Mumetal $(Ni_{77}Fe_{14}Mo_{5}Cu_4$ wt%) growth temperature increases, the grain size and the surface roughness increase simultaneously. The smallest coupling field is obtained at $40^\circ{C}$ where the grain size is larger than that of the $20^\circ{C}$ sample. The exchange coupling field increases again at temperatures higher than $40^\circ{C}$ due to increase in the surface roughness of the Mumetal.

  • We report a new excimer laser annealing method which successfully results in a single grain boundary formation in the channel of polycrystalline silicon thin film transistor. The proposed method is based on lateral grain growth and employs aluminum patterns which act as selective beam mask and lateral heat sink. The maximum grain size obtained by the proposed method is about 1.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in the length. The grainboundaries should be arranged parallel with the direction of current flow for the best device performance, so we propose a new device fabrication method and a new poly-Si TFT structure. Poly-Si TFT fabricated by the proposed method exhibits considerably improved electrical characteristics, such as high field effect mobility exceeding 240 $cm^2$/Vsec.
