In this study, zinc or cerium exchanged zeolite was introduced to develop a novel anti-corrosion pigment. The primer paint was made using them and was coated on galvanized(GI) steel. The anti-corrosion performance was measured using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). And scanning vibrating electrode technique(SVET) was employed to observe the cut-edge corrosion process of the coated GI steel. From EIS and SVET results, it could be confirmed that Ce ion-exchanged zeolite showed the anti-corrosion performance higher than Shieldex C303 and Zn ionexchanged zeolite. Finally, it was found that metal ion-exchanged zeolite may provide new possibility as the smart cathodic corrosion inhibitor delivery systems on galvanized steels.

The wetting property of polymer surfaces is very important for practical applications. Plasma source ion implantation technique was used to improve the wetting properties of polymer surfaces. Poly(ethylene terephtalate) and other polymer sheets were mounted on the target stage and an RF plasma was generated by means of an antenna located inside the vacuum chamber. High voltage pulses of up to -10kV, 10 $\mu$sec, and up to 1 kHz were applied to the stage. The samples were implanted for 5 minutes with using Ar, $N_2,O_2,CH_4,CF_4$ and their mixture as source gases. A contact angle meter was used to measure the water contact angles of the implanted samples and of the samples stored in ambient conditions after implantation. The modified surfaces were analysed with Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometer (TOF-SIMS) and Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). The oxygen-implanted samples showed extremely low water contact angles of $3^{\circ}C$ compared to $79^{\circ}C$ of unimplanted ones. Furthermore, the modified surfaces were relatively stable with respect to aging in ambient conditions, which is one of the major concerns of the other surface treatment techniques. From TOF-SIMS analysis it was found that oxygen-containing functional groups had been formed on the implanted surfaces. On the other hand, the $CF_4$-implanted samples turned out to be more hydro-phobic than unimplanted ones, giving water contact angles exceeding $100^{\circ}C$ . The experiment showed that plasma source ion implantation is a very promising technique for polymer surface modification especially for large area treatment.

본 논문은 하이브리드용 자동차의 리튬 이온 전지의 사이클 라이프에 따른 용량의 감소를 예측하고 잔량을 예측하기 위한 지능형 스마트 모듈의 설계를 제안한다. 리튬 이온 전지는 충 방전 횟수에 따라 전하를 담을 수 있는 용량이 감소하고, 방전 전압이 비선형이므로 정확한 잔량 예측이 어렵다. 따라서, 지능형 스마트 모듈은 전압과 전류, 온도의 측정을 위한 데이터 수집 장치를 제작하고 퍼지 로직을 이용한 잔량 측정 알고리즘을 통해 정확도가 높은 리튬 이온 전지의 잔량을 예측하고, 충 방전 실험 값과 퍼지 로직을 이용한 결과 값의 비교를 통해 그 효용성을 보인다.

An experimental and numerical study is carried out to investigate the performance and the efficiency humidifying Membrane Electrolyte Assembly and having the double-layered catalyst in a fuel cell system which is taken into account the physical and thermal concept. Based on the principals of the problem, the equation of electronic charge conservation equation, gas-phase continuity equation, and mass balance equation are used for the numerical calculation. A unit cell for $200cm^2$ MEA is assembled and measured for finding better operational situation. After finding the optimal condition, 10 cell stacked PEMFC is fabricated. For the performance evaluation, V-I and power curves are examined in detail by changing the condition of humidity, temperature, pressure, thickness of catalyst and oxidant. It is found that the power is maximized around 500W at 80A.

A study on the electrosorption of uranium ions onto a porous activated carbon fiber (ACF) was performed to treat uraniumcontaining lagoon sludge. The result of the continuous flow-through cell electrosorption experiments showed that the applied negative potential increased the adsorption kinetics and capacity in comparison to the open-circuit potential (OCP) adsorption for uranium ions. Effective U(VI) removal is accomplished when a negative potential is applied to the activated carbon fiber (ACF) electrode. For a feed concentration of 100 mg/L, the concentration of U(VI) in the cell effluent is reduced to less than 1 mg/L. The selective removal of uranium ions from electrolyte was possible by the electrosorption process.

Surface defects and bulk defects on SOI wafers are studied. Two new metrologies have been proposed to characterize surface and bulk defects in epitaxial layer transfer (ELTRAN) wafers. They included the following: i) laser scattering particle counter and coordinated atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Cu-decoration for defect isolation and ii) cross-sectional transmission electron microscope (TEM) foil preparation using focused ion beam (FIB) and TEM investigation for defect morphology observation. The size of defect is 7.29 urn by AFM analysis, the density of defect is 0.36 /cm$^2$ at as-direct surface oxide defect (DSOD), 2.52 /cm$^2$ at ox-DSOD. A hole was formed locally without either the silicon or the buried oxide layer (Square Defect) in surface defect. Most of surface defects in ELTRAN wafers originate from particle on the porous silicon.

Cheju island is composed of volcanic tuff. The soil in Cheju island has principally sprung from basalt and partially made up of trachyte, and andesite. Also ancient relics, plain coarse pottery kilns and pantiles kilns are homogeneously distributed all over the Cheju island. In this study samples of plain coarse pottery and pantiles from five regions of Cheju island have been examined through X-ray fluorescence spectrometer and Mossbauer spectroscopy. It is thought that these samples be partially formed from neutral volcanic rock like trachyte and the valence state of iron is almost $Fe^{3+}$. Also the magnetic hyperfine field of goethite contained in these samples is less than synthetic goethite. This result shows the degradation of magnetic order caused by the partial substitution of diamagnetic positive ion $Fe^{3+}$ by $Al^{3+}$ in the goethite lattice.

상용의 PS가 가지는 소수 특성을 아르곤, 수소, 산소 이온을 이온 보조 반응법을 이용하여 PS의 표면에 조사하여 PS의 표면을 친수성을 증대시켰으며 이때의 친수성의 변화는 각 이온의 비율과 전류의 세기 및 전압의 변화에 따라 측정하였다. 이온 소스는 직경 5cm의 cold hollow cathod ion gun을 이용하였으며 이온 조사량은 5$\times$1014 ~ 1$\times$1017까지 변화시키고 산소의 유량은 0~6sccm까지 변화시키고 수소의 유량 또한 0~6sccm 까지 변화시키면서 극성 용매인 물과의 접촉각을 정적 접촉각 측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 또한 일정 조건에서 이온의 조사 후 대기와 물속에서 시간에 따른 물의 접촉각의 변화를 측정하였다. 표면에 형성된 극성 그룹을 조사하기 위하여 XPS를 측정하였다. XPS 측정결과 표면에 C-O, C=O, (C=O)-O와 같은 극성 작용기가 형성되었음을 확인하였으나 PS 표면에 생성된 정확한 작용기를 구분하기 어려웠다. 따라서 좀더 세밀한 조사를 위하여 FT-IR을 이용하여 이온 조사 조건에 따른 PS 표면의 분자단의 Peak 변화를 관찰하였다.

상용의 PVC가 갖는 소수 특성을 개선하기 위해 산소, 아르곤, 수소 이온의 이온 보조 반응법을 이용하여 표면의 친수성을 증대시키고 이때 친수성 증가의 직접적 원인인 표면에너지 증가를 각각의 이온조사에 따라서 비교하였다. 이온 소스는 직경 5-cm의 cold hollow cathod ion gun을 이용하였으며 산소, 아르곤, 수소이온을 이온 조사량 5$\times$1014~1$\times$1017ions/cm2까지 변화시키고 산소의 유량을 0~8sccm까지 변화시키면서 표면 에너지 변화를 관찰하였다. 표면 에너지는 두 가지의 극성 용매인 물과 포름아마이드의 접촉각을 정적 접촉각 측정기를 이용하여 측정한 후에 이로부터 dispersion force와 polar force를 계산하여 얻었다. 계산된 결과를 보면 처리 전과후의 dispersion force의 변화는 거의 없으나 polar force는 크게 증가하였다. 이때 표면 에너지의 증가는 표면 형상의 변화와 극성을 띠는 친수성기의 증가로 여겨지며 각각의 경우에 대한 분석을 위해 AFM과 XPS 분석을 시행하여 각각의 이온에 따르는 표면 형상의 변화와 친수성기의 형성 및 상대적인 양을 비교하였다.

The phosphors of high luminous efficiency for PDP application must have high purity, single phase, and dense surface. In this work, the polymeric reaction was applied to preparation of spherical phosphor by aerosol pyrolysis in order to enhance mechanical and optical characteristics. The red phosphor of (Y,Gd)$BO_3$:Eu was prepared from polymeric precursor, in which citric acid and ethylene glycol were used as ion carriers, i.e monomers. For enhancing the luminescence intensity and mechanical characteristics. optimum synthesizing condition were investigated through concentration of monomers, synthetic temperature. doped activator concentrations, and annealing process. The phosphors synthesized with monomers showed quite different morphology from those without monomers. It was observed that polymeric precursor made an effect on particle formation mechanism and status of particles surface. The resultant spherical phosphors show the comparable luminescent properties to the commercial product (product by Nichia co.). Also, they were observed to have the rigid surface.
