Power Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor's (MOSFETs) are well known for superior switching speed, and they require very little gate drive power because of the insulated gate. In these respects, power MOSFETs approach the characteristics of an "ideal switch". The main drawback is on-resistance RDS(on) and its strong positive temperature coefficient. While this process has been driven by market place competition with operating parameters determined by products, manufacturing technology innovations that have not necessarily followed such a consistent path have enabled it. This treatise briefly examines metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) device characteristics and elucidates important future issues which semiconductor technologists face as they attempt to continue the rate of progress to the identified terminus of the technology shrink path in about 2020. We could find at the electrical property as variation p base dose. Ultimately, its ON state voltage drop was enhanced also shrink chip size. To obtain an optimized parameter and design, we have simulated over 500 V Field ring using 8 Field rings. Field ring width was $3{\mu}m$ and P base dose was $1e15cm^2$. Also the numerical multiple $2.52cm^2$ was obtained which indicates the doping limit of the original device. We have simulated diffusion condition was split from $1,150^{\circ}C$ to $1,200^{\circ}C$. And then $1,150^{\circ}C$ diffusion time was best condition for break down voltage.

Nanoparticle with antimicrobial property has been applied to various fields. This study added silver/platinum nanoparticles to HEMA (2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate), NVP (N-vinyl pyrrolidone) and MMA (methylmethacrylate) in various concentrations and copolymerized by heating at $70^{\circ}C$ for 40 minutes, $80^{\circ}C$ for 40 minutes, and finally, $100^{\circ}C$ for 40 minutes. The particle size of used nano silver and platinum was 10 ~ 20 nm respectively. Using the polymer produced through the copolymerization process, the authors have produced a contact lens and measured the physical characteristics which showed water content of 34.29 ~ 39.00%, refractive index of 1.422 ~ 1.430, visible transmittance of 78.8 ~ 92.5% and tensile strength of 0.149 ~ 0.179 kgf. The ophthalmic lens material produced using silver/platinum nanoparticles satisfied the basic physical properties required for contact lens application.

The ongoing Superconducting Fault Current Limiter(SFCL) development mainly has focused on the application of commercializaton and power system through combining with normal-conducting device, moving away from current-limiting method, which is solely dependant on the existing superconductor. Compared to the structural development above, on the other hand, the research on applying superconducting current-limiting element to SFCL, the heart of SFCL, still has a lot left to do, apart form traditional resistive type SFCL. In this study, we looked into the current limiting characteristic of SFCL using core and coil. YBCO coated conductor with stainless steel stabilizer layer was verified by the excellent of current-limiting element of the resistive type SFCL that has a high Jc and index as well as being superior in mechanical property. Also, we study temperature characteristics and resistance characteristics, max voltage, response time and current-limiting ability that can be an indicator as current-limiting element while applying to superconducting current-limiting element caused by variation of winding direction, winding ratio of SFCL using core and coil.

강유전성 세라믹스 재료로써는 PZT계열의 세라믹재료가 널리 쓰이고 있다. 이는 우수한 유전 및 압전특성을 가지고 있으나, PbO을 다량 함유하고 있어 $1000^{\circ}C$이상에서 PbO가 급격하게 휘발되는 성질 때문에 조성의 변동이 생겨 재현성이 어려우며 이를 방지하기 위하여 PbO를 과잉 첨가시키기 때문에 PbO휘발로 인한 강한 독성이 인체에 유해하고, 비환경 친화적인 물질로 최근에는 환경문제가 대두됨에 따라 대체 또는 보완 할 수 있는 방안에 검토되고 있다. 본 연구는 그 해결책의 한 방안으로 압전특성이 우수한 $(Pb_{0.94}Sr_{0.06})[(Ni_{1/2}W_{1/2})_{0.02}(Mn_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{0.07}(Zr_{0.51}Ti_{0.49})_{0.91}]O_3$계 조성을 설계하고 Glass frit(0~1.1 wt%)를 소량 첨가하여 액상 소결 특성을 부여하고 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이하의 저온에서 소결하여 유전 및 압전 특성을 평가하였다. 실험방법은 일반적인 세라믹스 제조공정으로 24시간 ball milling하고 $850^{\circ}C$에서 2시간 하소 후 Glass frit를 소결조제로 소랑 첨가하여 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이하 온도에서 소결을 진행하여 각 소결온도에 따른 유전 및 압전 특성을 평가하였다. 최종 소결된 시편의 밀도와 수축율을 분석하여 최적의 소결온도를 확립하였으며 XRD분석을 통해 perovskite구조를 확인하고 미세구조확인을 위해 SEM으로 관찰하였다. 압전 특성을 평가하였다.

For the experimental study of rotor steel, seven kind of specimens with different degradation levels were prepared by isothermal heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$. Spherical indentation technique was developed to evaluate the flow properties of metallic materials in carbon steel, stainless steel, and alloys, etc. Through the spherical indentation test, differently degraded 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel's mechanical properties were observed and compared with conventional standard test data. The flow properties of 1Cr-1Mo-0.25V steel's were estimated by analyzing the indentation load-depth curve. To characterize the flow property, we used material yield slope and constraint factor index rather than strain-hardening exponent because the variation of strain-hardening exponent was very little and the data showed irregularly. And the constraint factor's effect was small when the material yield slope was taken into account.

Fire-killed trees of Korean red pine are valuable resources for industrial uses. It is common only believed that fire-killed trees are too weak and brittle to use in construction purposes. The misunderstandings of fire-killed trees lead these valuable resources abandonment. The purposes of this research are focused on scrutinization of material properties of fire-killed trees to facilitate industrial uses of these resources. The sample logs were collected from the forest fire site of the eastern coast area in which the most catastrophic wild fire had taken place in 2000. Fire-killed Korean red pines were classified into 3 levels by the degree of fire damage so called light, medium and heavy, then their physical, mechanical and chemical properties were compared with sound trees. No significant difference in physical appearances were found in the cross sections by degree of damage compared to sound tree but bark char. Investigation on mechanical and chemical properties indicates that forest fire did not impact significantly in lowering the strength of damaged trees. It was concluded that there was any limitation of forest fire-killed trees of Korean red pine in industrial utilization.

In this dissertation, Ru-Zr metal gate electrode deposited on two kinds of dielectric were formed for MOS capacitor. Sample co-sputtering method was used as a alloy deposition method. Various atomic composition was achieved when metal film was deposited by controlling sputtering power. To study the characteristics of metal gate electrode, C-V(capacitance-voltage) and I-V(current-voltage) measurements were performed. Work function and equivalent oxide thickness were extracted from C-V curves by using NCSU(North Carolina State University) quantum model. After the annealing at various temperature, thermal/chemical stability was verified by measuring the variation of effective oxide thickness and work function. This dissertation verified that Ru-Zr gate electrodes deposited on $SiO_{2}\;and\;ZrO_{2}$ have compatible work functions for NMOS at the specified atomic composition and this metal alloys are thermally stable. Ru-Zr metal gate electrode deposited on $SiO_{2}\;and\;ZrO_{2}$ exhibit low sheet resistance and this values were varied with temperature. Metal alloy deposited on two kinds of dielectric proposed in this dissertation will be used in company with high-k dielectric replacing polysilicon and will lead improvement of CMOS properties.

LC aligning capabilities and the variation of pretilt angles with ion beam irradiation on the a-C:H thin films, and electro-optical (EO) performances of the ion beam aligned twisted nematic (TN)-liquid crystal display (LCD) with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film were studied. A high pretilt angle of $3.5{^{\circ}}$ via ion beam irradiation on the a-C:H thin film was measured. Also, the LC pretilt angle decreased due to the increase in surface roughness at over 2 min of IB exposure time. It is considered that this roughness increase due to increasing IB exposure time that generated destroy of oriented rings of atoms related to LC alignment. An excellent voltage-transmittance (V-T) curve of the ion beam aligned TN-LCD was observed with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film for 1 min. Also, a faster response time for the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with oblique ion beam exposure on the a-C:H thin film for 1 min can be achieved. Finally, the residual DC property of the ion beam aligned TN-LCD with ion beam exposure of 1 min on the a-C:H thin film is almost same as that of the rubbing aligned TN-LCD on a PI surface.

Studies have been carried out in order to reduce fuel-cladding chemical interaction (FCCI) behavior of metallic fuel in sodium-cooled fast reactors (SFR) using an electroplating technique. A $20{\mu}m$ thick Cr layer has been plated by the electrochemical method in the Sargent bath over the HT9 (12Cr-1Mo) clad material and diffusion couple tests of the U-10Zr metallic fuel as well as the rare earth alloy (70Ce-29La) have been conducted. The results show that the Cr plating can prevent FCCI behavior along the fuel-clad interface. However, cracks developed through the thickness during plating, which resulted in the migration of some fuel constituents. Variation of bath temperature, application of pulse current, and post heat treatment have been conducted to control such cracks. We found out that some conditions like the pulse current and the post heat treatment enhanced the layer property by reducing the internal cracks and improving the diffusion couple test.

In this study, von Mises stress and total strain energy density characteristics of lead pin in PGA (Pin Grid Array) packages have been calculated by using the FEM (Finite Element Method). FEM computation is carried out with various heat treatment conditions of lead pin material under $20^{\circ}$ bending and 50 mm tension condition. Results show that von Mises stress locally concentrated on lead pin corners and interface between lead pin head and solder. von Mises stress and total strain energy density decrease as heat treatment temperature of lead pin increases. Also, round shaped corner of lead pin decreases both von Mises stress and total strain energy density on interface between lead pin head and solder. This means that PGA package reliability can be improved by changing the mechanical property of lead pin through heat treatment. This has been known that solder fatigue life decreases as total strain energy density of solder increases. Therefore, it is recommended that both optimized lead pin shape and optimized material property with high lead pin heat treatment temperature determine better PGA package reliability.
