We examined the microfabrics of omphacite and garnet in foliated eclogite to determine the influence of the layered structure on seismic observations in subduction zone. The analyzed eclogite, from the Lanterman Range, northern Victoria Land, Antarctica, is characterized by layering in which the modal abundances of garnet and omphacite vary. For garnet, the low aspect ratios, similar angular distribution of long axes relative to the foliation in both layers, uniform grain size distribution, near-random crystallographic preferred orientations (CPOs), and misorientation angle distributions are indicative of passive behavior during deformation. In contrast, omphacite shows relatively high aspect ratios, a low angle between the long axes of crystals and the foliation, a wide grain-size distribution, and distinctive CPOs, suggesting dislocation creep as the main deformation mechanism. The results of fabric analyses are consistent with strain localization into omphacite or omphacite-rich layers rather than garnet or garnet-rich layers. The single-crystal seismic anisotropy of garnet is very weak ($AV_P=0.2%$, $AV_S=0.5-0.6%$), whereas that of omphacite is much stronger ($AV_P=3.7-5.9%$ and $AV_S=2.9-3.8%$). Seismic anisotropy of the omphacite-rich layers shows an increase of 329% for $AV_P$ and 146% for $AV_S$ relative to the garnet-rich layers. Our results demonstrate the importance of the layered structure in strain localization and in the development of the seismic anisotropies of subducting oceanic crust.

In order to analyze the effect of hot asymmetric rolling on the microstructure and texture of aluminum alloy and to investigate the effect of the texture on the formability and plastic anisotropy of aluminum alloy, aluminum 6061 alloy is asymmetrically rolled at room temperature, $200^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$, and $500^{\circ}C$, and the results are compared with symmetrically rolled results. In the case of asymmetric rolling, the equivalent strain (${\varepsilon}_{eq}$) is greatest in the upper roll part where the rotational speed of the roll is high and increases with increasing rolling temperature. The increase rate of the mean misorientation angle with increasing temperature is larger than that during symmetrical rolling, and dynamic recrystallization occurs the most when asymmetrical rolling is performed at $500^{\circ}C$. In the case of hot symmetric rolling, the {001}<110> rotated cube orientation mainly develops, but in the case of hot asymmetric rolling, the {111}<110> orientation develops along with the {001}<100> cube orientation. The hot asymmetric rolling improves the formability (${\bar{r}}$) of the aluminum 6061 alloy to 0.9 and reduces the plastic anisotropy (${\Delta}r$) to near zero due to the {111}<110> shear orientation that develops by asymmetric rolling.

This study investigated the effects of the processing number of multi-axial diagonal forging (MADF) on the microstructural changes of OFC fabricated by MADF processes. The as-extruded OFC was cut to $25mm^3$ cube for the MADF processes. The MADF process consists of plane forging with a thickness reduction of 30% and diagonal forging with a diagonal forging angle of $135^{\circ}$. In order to analyze the microstructural evolutions according to the number of repetitions, 1, 2, 3 and 4 cycles of the MADF process were performed. OFC specimens were successfully deformed without surface cracking for up to 4 cycles of MADF. The grain size, average misorientation and average grain orientation spread (GOS) of MADF processed materials were analyzed using EBSD technique and their Vicker's hardness were also measured. The results showed that MADF process effectively refined the microstructure of OFC with initial average grain size of $84.2{\mu}m$. The average grain sizes of specimens MADF processed for 1, 2, 3, 4 cycles were refined to be $8.5{\mu}m$, $2.2{\mu}m$, $1.5{\mu}m$, $1.1{\mu}m$, respectively. The grain refinement seemed to be saturated when OFC was MADF processed over 2 cycles. In the case of specimens subjected to two or more cycles of MADF, the degree of decrease in average grain size was drastically reduced as the number of cycles increased due to softening phenomena such as dynamic recovery or dynamic recrystallization during processing. The degree of increase in average Vicker's hardness was also dramatically reduced as the number of cycles increased due to the same reason.

This study investigates the effects of multi-axial diagonal forging (MADF) processing number on the microstructures of AA1100 fabricated using MADF processes. The cast AA1100 was annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ for 3hrs in $N_2$ atmosphere and cut into $25mm^3$ cubes for the MADF processes. The MADF process consist of plane forging with a thickness reduction of 30% and a diagonal forging with a diagonal forging angle of 135 degrees. In order to analyze the microstructural variations based on the number of repetitions, 1, 2, 3 and 4 cycles of the MADF process were performed. AA1100 specimens were successfully deformed without cracking of the surface for up to 4 cycles of MADF. The grain size, average misorientation and average grain orientation spread (GOS) of MADF processed materials were analyzed using EBSD technique. The results showed that MADF process effectively refined the microstructure of AA1100 with an initial average grain size of $337.4{\mu}m$. The average grain sizes of specimens which were MADF processed for 2, 3, 4 cycles were refined to be $1.9{\mu}m$, $1.6{\mu}m$, $1.4{\mu}m$, respectively. The grain refinement appeared saturated when AA1100 got MADF processed over 2 cycles. When the specimen was subjected to two or more cycles of MADF, the degree of decrease in the average grain size drastically decreased with an increase in the number of cycle due to the softening phenomena such as dynamic recovery or dynamic recrystallization during processing.

The microstructure of Cu-15 wt%Ag composites fabricated by equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) with intermediate heat treatment at $320^{\circ}C$ was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) observations. Ag precipitates with a thickness of 20-40 nm were observed in the eutectic region of the Cu-15 wt%Ag composite solution treated at $700^{\circ}C$ before ECAP. The Cu matrix and Ag precipitates had a cube on cube orientation relationship. ECAPed composites exhibited ultrafine-grained microstructures with the shape and distribution dependent on the processing routes. For route A in which the sample was pressed without rotation between each pass, the Cu and Ag grains were elongated along the shear direction and many micro-twins were observed in elongated Cu grains as well as in Ag filaments. The steps were observed on coherent twin boundaries in Cu grains. For route Bc in which the sample was rotated by 90 degrees after each pass, a subgrain structure with misorientation of 2-4 degree by fragmentation of the large Cu grains were observed. For route C in which the sample was rotated by 180 degrees after each pass, the microstructure was similar to that of the route A sample. However, the thickness of the elongated grains along the shear direction was wider than that of the route A sample and the twin density was lower than the route A sample. It was found that more microtwins were formed in ECAPed Cu-15 wt%Ag than in the drawn sample. Grain boundaries were observed in relatively thick and long Ag filaments in Cu-15 wt%Ag ECAPed by route C, indicating the multi-crystalline nature of Ag filaments.

A typical ferritic/martensitic (F/M) steel sheet was subjected to pulsed laser surface remelting (LSR) and corrosion test in lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) at 550 ℃. There present two modification zones with distinct microstructures in the LSRed specimen: (1) remelted zone (RZ) consisting of both bulk δ-ferrite grains and martensitic plates and (2) heat-affected zone (HAZ) below the RZ, mainly composed of martensitic plates and high-density precipitates. Martensitic transformation occurs in both the RZ and the HAZ with the Kurdjumov-Sachs and Nishiyama-Wassermann orientation relationships followed concurrently, resulting in scattered orientations and specific misorientation characteristics. Hardnesses of the RZ and the HAZ are 364 ± 7 HV and 451 ± 15 HV, respectively, considerably higher than that of the matrix (267 ± 3 HV). In oxygen-saturated and oxygen-depleted LBE, thicknesses of oxide layers developed on both the as-received and the LSRed specimens increase with prolonging corrosion time (oxide layers always thinner under the oxygen-depleted condition). The corrosion resistance of the LSRed F/M steel in oxygen-saturated LBE is improved, which can be attributed to the grain-refinement accelerated formation of dense Fe-Cr spinel. In oxygen-depleted LBE, the growth of oxide layers is very low with both types of specimens showing similar corrosion resistance.

Si 기판 위에 GaN의 성장은 Si이 사파이어보다 값이 저렴하고, 기존의 Si의 직접회로 공정에 GaN를 쉽게 접목시킬 수 있는 측면에서 다양한 장점이 있다. 그러나, Si은 GaN와의 격자상수와 열팽창계수의 차이가 사파이어보다 크며, 이로 인해 격자부정합에 의한 여러 결함을 발생시킨다. 따라서, Si 기판 위에 고품질의 GaN를 얻기 위해서는 AlN과 같은 완충층을 사용하여 격자부정합에 의한 결함을 줄여야 한다. 본 연구에서는 Si (111) 기판 위에 MOCVD, 스퍼터링과 MOMBE의 3가지 방법으로 결정성이 다른 3가지 유형의 AlN 완충층을 얻은 후, MOCVD법으로 GaN를 증착시켜 각각의 성장특성을 비교하였다. AlN 완충층과 GaN의 격자결합, 완충층의 표면 거칠기가 격자결함에 미치는 영향, 결정성, 성장방향, 결함(공공, 적층결함, 전위) 등을 TEM, XRD를 이용해 비교 분석하였다. AlN완충층의 결정성은 GaN의 성장에 있어 매우 큰 영향을 미치는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. 초기 성장과정에서 MOCVD과 MOMBE 법으로 성장시킨 AlN 완충층은 GaN 초기 성장에서 out-of-plane의 성장방향이 틀어지는 것을 감소시켜 주었다.

본 연구는 실온에서 미처리재와 UNSM처리재, 수소취화재(100 bar, $300^{\circ}C$에서 120 h) 및 이 수소취화재의 UNSM처리재의 스테인리스강 316L 시험편의 재료특성파악을 위한 실험을 실시하였다. 여기서 수소취화재는 기존의 미처리재의 S-N곡선보다 피로강도가 약간 감소하는 경향을 나타내었으며, 수소취화효과는 적게 나타났다. 미처리재에 비해서 UNSM처리재의 피로한도는 약 43.8 % 상승하였고, 수소취화재의 UNSM처리재는 수소취화재보다 약 57.1 % 상승하는 경향을 나타내었다. EBSD에 의한 IQ, IPF 및 KAM 맵에서 UNSM처리 후, 이 처리의 영향을 받는 나노 입자 표면층의 두께는 약 $152{\mu}m$이다. 그러나 세 가지 맵에서 수소취화의 깊이 영향을 정량적으로 평가할 수 없었다. 시험편상에서 발생하는 표면균열은 수소취화의 영향으로 평균입경($35{\mu}m$)보다 작은 균열의 비율이 약 90 %를 차지하였다.

초고진공에서 in situ 고상 에피택셜 방법으로 Si(111)기판 위에 에피택셜 $CoSi_2$ 초박막과 $Si/epi-CoSi_2/Si$(111) 의 이중 이종에피택셜 구조를 성장 시켰다. 2-MeV $^4He^{++}$ 이온 후방산란 분광기와 X-선 회절분석기 및 고분해능 투과전자 현미경을 이용하여 성장된 $CoSi_2$와 $Si/epi-CoSi_2/Si$(111)의 상, 조성, 결정성 그리고 계면의 미세구조를 조사하였다. 실온에서 증착된 Co 박막은 texture 구조를 갖는 Stransky-Krastanov 성장 모드를 나타내었다. 실온에서 Si(111)-$7\times{7}$ 기판 위에 Co를 $50\AA$ 증착한 후 $700^{\circ}C$로 10분간 in situ 열처리했을 때 초박막 A-type $CoSi_2$상이 성장되었고, 정합상관계는 $CoSi_2$[110]//Si[110] and $CoSi_2$(002)//Si(002)였으며, 편의각은 없었다. A-type $CoSi_2$/Si(111)계면은 평활하고 coherent 하였다. 양질의 epi-Si/epi-$CoSi_2$(A-type)/Si(111)구조는 Co/Si(111)계를 $700^{\circ}C$로 10분간 in situ로 열처리한 후 기판을 $500^{\circ}C$로 유지하면서 Si을 증착하였을 때 형성되었다.
