전도성 고분자 센서 (Conducting polymer sensors)는 상온에서 휘발성 유기 화합물 가스 (Volitile organic compounds gases)에 대해 감도를 가지고 있다. 화학 중합으로 제조된 전도성고분자인 polypyrrole과 polyaniline로 이루어진 8개의 센서 어레이를 이용하여 VOCs 가스에 대한 감응 특성을 살펴보았다. 화학 중합으로 합성된 각 센서들은 증류된 pyrrole, aniline과 dopant로 dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA)와 산화제로 ammonium persulfate (APS) 그리고 증류수를 이용하여 제조되었으며, 각 센서들의 특성 부여를 위해 redoping과 dedoping은 전기화합법을 이용하여 제조하였다. Dedoping 법은 전압을 반대로 걸어주어 처음 첨가된 dopant를 전해질 속으로 빼냈으며, redoping법은 1-octanesulfonic acid sodium salt를 화합중합으로 형성된 막에 다시 첨가 시켰다. 감도와 가역성은 doping, dedoping, redoping 그리고 두께에 따라 영향을 받는다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 이들 전도성 고분자의 구조와 감도와의 관계를 scanning electron microscope (SEM), scanning probe microscope (SPM) 그리고 $\alpha$-step을 사용하여 조사하였다.

SiC fibers were coated with Cu, Ag and Ni metallic thin films by magnetron sputtering in order to improve wetting properties between Al matrix and SiC fiber. The wetting behavior of metal coated SiC fiber by pure Al has been studied at $670^{\circ}C{\sim}900^{\circ}C$ range for $10{\sim}90min$. under vacuum atmosphere. Besides, the effect of coated film thickness on the wettability has been investigated. The wetting behavior and interfacial reaction between Al and SiC fibers were analysed with optical microscope and SEM (scanning electron microscope). The wetting behavior of the as-received SiC fiber with Al melt was not uniform, indicated by the contact angles from less than $90^{\circ} to more Al melt was appeared in the initial stage of reation. It was considered that the metallic thin film played an important role in reducing the interfacial free energy and breaking down the aluminum oxide film by eutectic reaction with Al melt. However the wettability of Ni coated SiC fiber was not improved as much as that of Cu or Ag coated SiC fiber. The improvement of wettability by coating thickness is clearly showed in $1{\mu}m$ coated SiC fiber compared with $0.25{\mu}m$ coated SiC.

The bonding mechanism and bond strength were investigated for the cold pressure welding of Al to Al, Cu to Cu and Al to Cu by upsetting. A phenomenon of bonding betweenthe metallic components has been observed by a scanning electron microscope and metallurgical microscope. A modified equation for bond strength with respect to the reduction of height shows reasonably a good agreement with the experimental data. When the values of the hardening factor and threshold deformation for the given materials could be determined, the theoretical bond strength can be calculated.

Microstructure and mechanical properties of the low pressure die-cast Al wheels were investigated by microscope, image analyzer, NDT (non-destructive test), and tensile test. The variation of SDAS (secondary dendrite arm spacing), porosity per unit area, quality grade, and tensile properties with the mold temperatures were examined. SDAS was gradually decreased with a decrease in temperature. However, the lowest value of porosity per unit area was observed at the mold temperature of $405^{\circ}C$ and the optimum mold temperature was found to be $405^{\circ}C$. Besides, from the observation of pore morphology, it was also found that the pore formation was mainly caused by shrinkage during solidification. The tensile strength, elongation, and impact toughness were markedly decreased, however the yield strength was nearly constant. The decrease of mechanical properties is attributed to the increase of porosity.

The interfacial phenomena between intermetallic compounds and Al matrix have been studied at $680^{\circ}C$ for various holding time under argon atmosphere. Model experiments were performed using Fe, Ni and Ti wire to observe the interfacial phenomena. The interfacial phenomena between intermetallic compounds and Al matrix were analysed by optical microscope, SEM and EDX. The results of EDX and XRD showed that the interfacial zones of intermetallic compounds/Al matrix were composed of several intermetallic layers. The reaction layer was varied with holding time and heating temperature. The investigation of interfacial zones in the specimen as a function of heat treatment time at $680^{\circ}C$ indicated that the best heat treatment condition for squeeze casting was $680^{\circ}C$ for 5min.

The purpose of this study is to develop the processing techniques of Fiber Reinforced Metal by Liquid Phase Diffusion Bonding method with SiC fiber as a reinforcing material and CP Ti(Commercial Pure) as a matrix. The microstructure and the distribution of elements in reaction and CP Ti(Commercial Pure) as a matrix.

The results obtained in this study are as follows. 1) When Ti matrix composite materials are fabricated under the bonding condition of 1273Kx1200sec, the SiC long fiber was the most suitable reinforcing material for Ti matrix composite materials. 2) With SiC long fiber under same condition, a TiC layer(1.0-1.6$\mu\textrm{m}$) was observed on the surface of SiC long fiber. 3) Liquid Phase Diffusion Bonding has shown the feasibility of production of Ti matrix composite materials.

리모트 수소 플라즈마를 이용하여 실리콘 웨이퍼 표면 위에 있는 금속불순물의 제거 및 제거기구에 관하여 조사하였다. 실리콘의 표면과 내부분석을 위하여 TXRF(total reflection x-ray fluorescence)와 SPV(surface photovoltage), AFM(atomic force microscope)을 사용하였다. TXRF 분석결과 리모트 수소 플라즈마가 금속오염물질 제거에 상당한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. TXRF분석결과 리모트 수소 플라즈마가 금속오염물질 제거에 상당한 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 리모트 수소플라트마 처리 후 금속오염은 금속원소의 종류에 따라 1010atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$-1011atoms/$\textrm{cm}^2$수준이었다. SPV분석결과를 보면 수소 플라즈마 처리에 의해 minority carrier 수명이 전반적으로 증가하였다. AFM 분석을 통하여 수소 플라즈마 처리가 표면 손상을 일으키지 않으며 표면의 거칠기에 나쁜 영향을 미치지 않음을 알 수 있었다. 또한 본 실험에서 나타난 결과들을 종합해 볼 때 금속오염물의 제거기구는 자연산화막 혹은 수소로 passivate된 실리콘 웨이퍼 표면을 수소 플라즈마에서 발생된 수소원자가 실리콘표면을 약하게 에칭할 때 떨어져 나가는 'lift-off'가 유력한 것으로 판단된다.

In this paper processing and mechanical properties of Al-20 wt％ Si alloy was studied. A bulk form of Al-20Si alloy was prepared by gas atomizing powders having the powder size of 106-145 ${\mu}m$ and powder extrusion. The powder extrudate was subsequently equal channel angular pressed up to 8 passes in order to refine grain and Si particle. The microstructure of the gas atomized powders, powder extrudates and equal channel angular pressed samples were investigated using a scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction. The mechanical properties of the bulk sample were measured by compressive tests and a micro Victors hardness test. Equal channel angular pressing was found to be effective in matrix grain and Si particle refinement, which enhanced the strength and hardness of the Al-2OSi alloy without deteriorating ductility in the range of experimental strain of 30％.

In this study, we investigated the effect of carbon on mechanical properties with different austempering conditions of high carbon(0.7~1.3wt.%C)-2.0wt.%Si steels. The specimens were austenitized at 850, 925 and $1020^{\circ}C$, and austempered at 260, 320 and $380^{\circ}C$ for the various period of time from 3 min to 300 min. After heat treatment, the evolution of stage I and stage II was identified with optical microscope, XRD and hardness test. When the austempering temperature was $260^{\circ}C$, the microstructure consisted of the lower ausferrite while the upper ausferrite micro-structure was formed at $380^{\circ}C$. As the austempering temperature increases from 260 to $380^{\circ}C$, the tensile strength decreases and elongation increases. In addition, when carbon content increases, tensile strength and elongation decrease.

Nickel ferrite ($NiFe_2O_4$) powder was prepared through the ceramic route by calcination of a stoichiometric mixture of nickel oxide (NiO) and iron oxide ($Fe_2O_3$). The pressed pellets of $NiFe_2O_4$ were isothermally reduced in pure hydrogen at 800, 900, 1000 and $1100^{\circ}C$. Based on thermogravimetric analysis, the reduction behavior and the kinetic reaction mechanisms of the synthesized ferrite were studied. The initial ferrite powder and various reduction products were characterized by XRD, SEM, reflected light microscope and VSM to reveal the effect of hydrogen reduction on the composition, microstructure, magnetic properties and reaction kinetics of the produced Fe-Ni alloy. Complete reduction of the $NiFe_2O_4$ was achieved with synthesis of homogeneous nanocrystalline Fe-Ni alloys. Arrhenius equation with the approved mathematical formulations for a gas-solid reaction was applied for calculating the activation energy ($E_a$) values and detecting the controlling reaction mechanism.
