Ceramics based on CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃ solid solutions were synthesized in order to study their dielectric microwave properties. Microstructural analysis was performed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) using different analytical methods such as energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS). It was observed that the heating conditions during sintering and cooling strongly affect the microstructural development of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics. Various types and concentrations of structural defects were identified, for example, dislocations, twins and/or antiphase boundaries. all such defects resulted in a degradation of the dielectric microwave properties, in particular the quality factor Q. Dielectric properties of CaTiO₃-NdAlO₃-based ceramics can be improved by an appropriate thermal treatment of ceramics which results in a decrease in the concentrations of the identified microstructural defects.

3Y-TZP (3 mol% yttria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystals, 3Y-TZP) ceramics are emerging as dental implant materials due to their superior optical and mechanical properties as well as excellent biophysical properties, in spite of low bioactivity. In this study, we investigated to sintered properties and microstructural defects of dental zirconia implants fabricated by ceramic injection molding and post-HIP (Hot isostatic pressing) processing and analyzed the processing parameters related with the obtainment of its high sinterd density. Sintered and microstructural parameters, i.e, apparent density, grain size and phase composition of zirconia implants fabricated by injection molding were dependent on the fixtute size and implant type. Maximum sintered density of 99.2% and minimum grain size of 0.3-0.4 ㎛ were obtained from large-scaled 2-body sample. In 1-body ceramic implant, high sintered density of 99.5% was obtained, but it had a little monoclinic phase and wide grain size distribution.

본 논문은 널리 사용되고 있는 표면 미세조직 검사 기술과 표면 및 표면직하의 평가가 가능한 마이크로/나노 비파괴평가 기술을 소개한다. 일반적으로 재료 표면에서의 마이크로/나노 결함과 조직 상태는 벌크재료의 기계적, 물리적, 화학적 특성에 크게 영향을 주게 된다. 표면 미세조직 검사 기술은 이러한 재료의 결함과 조직특성을 신뢰도 높게 평가하는 기술이다. 각 검사기술의 원리와 특징, 응용분야와 개발 등을 소개하였다. 따라서 비파괴산업에서 마이크로/나노 비파괴평가의 적용과 기술 개발이 폭넓게 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

Recent advances in the microstructural modification of metal films using excimer laser projection irradiation and lateral resolidification are discussed. Pure copper films have been directionally resolidified into large sheet-like grains when properly encapsulated for suppression of liquid-phase dewetting. A survey and quantitative assessment of the defects found in these icrostructures, typical for rapidly solidified metals, is presented.

The characteristics of various important microstructural factors of WC-base hard- metals (cemented carbides) such as the amount of Co metal binder phase, the carbide grain size, the microstructural defects acting as a fracture source, the solid solubility of tungsten in the binder phase affected by the carbon content, the precipitation of $Co_3W$, the domain size of binder phase, the formation of ${\beta}-free$ layer or Co-rich layer and CVD or PVD coated layer, and the effects of these factors on the flexural strength of the hardmetals are reviewed.

Doped-$LaCrO_3$ perovskites, because of their good electrical conductivity and thermal stability in oxidizing and/or reducing environments, are used in high temperature solid oxide fuel cells as a gas-tight and electrically conductive interconnection layer. In this study, perovskite $(La_{0.8}Ca_{0.2})(Cr_{0.9}Co_{0.1})O_3$ (LCCC) coatings manufactured by atmospheric plasma spraying followed by heat treatment at $1200^{\circ}C$ have been investigated in terms of microstructural defects, gas tightness and electrical conductivity. The plasma-sprayed LCCC coating formed an inhomogeneous layered structure after the successive deposition of fully-melted liquid droplets and/or partially-melted droplets. Micro-sized defects including unfilled pores, intersplat pores and micro-cracks in the plasma-sprayed LCCC coating were connected together and allowed substantial amounts gas to pass through the coating. Subsequent heat treatment at $1200^{\circ}C$ formed a homogeneous granule microstructure with a small number of isolated pores, providing a substantial improvement in the gas-tightness of the LCCC coating. The electrical conductivity of the LCCC coating was consequently enhanced due to the complete elimination of inter-splat pores and micro-cracks, and reached 53 S/cm at $900^{\circ}C$.

The structure and morphology of epitaxial layer defects in epitaxial Si wafers produced by the Czochralski method were studied using focused ion beam (FIB) milling, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Epitaxial growth was carried out in a horizontal reactor at atmospheric pressure. The p-type Si wafers were loaded into the reactor at about $800^{\circ}C$ and heated to about $1150^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$. An epitaxial layer with a thickness of $4{\mu}m$ was grown at a temperature of 1080-$1100^{\circ}C$. Octahedral void defects, the inner walls of which were covered with a 2-4 nm-thick oxide, were surrounded mainly by $\{111\}$ planes. The formation of octahedral void defects was closely related to the agglomeration of vacancies during the growth process. Cross-sectional TEM observation suggests that the carbon impurities might possibly be related to the formation of oxide defects, considering that some kinds of carbon impurities remain on the Si surface during oxidation. In addition, carbon and oxygen impurities might play a crucial role in the formation of void defects during growth of the epitaxial layer.

In this study, the degree of particle melting in $Y_2O_3$ plasma spraying and its effects on coating characteristics have been investigated in terms of microstructural features, microhardness and scratch resistance. Plasma sprayed $Y_2O_3$ coatings were formed using two different powder feeding systems: a system in which the powder is fed inside the plasma gun and a system in which the powder is fed externally. The internal powder spraying method generated a well-defined lamellae structure that was characterized by a thin porous layer at the splat boundary and microcracks within individual splats. Such micro-defects were generated by the large thermal contraction of splats from fully-molten droplets. The external powder spraying method formed a relatively dense coating with a particulate deposition mode, and the deposition of a higher fraction of partially-melted droplets led to a much reduced number of inter-splat pores and intra-splat microcracks. The microhardness and scratch resistance of the $Y_2O_3$ coatings were improved by external powder spraying; this result was mainly attributed to the reduced number of micro-defects.
