Various recrystallization techniques has been applied to control morphology and size of NTO(3-nitro-1, 2, 4-triazole-5-one) crystals. With cooling method, it was found that the size of NTO at aqueous solution was controlled in the range of 5 to 500 $\mu\textrm{m}$. The spherical or cubic shapes of particles were obtained by adjusting operating conditions. Hexagonal and cubic shaped crystals of NTO were also obtained by sonication and evaporative method using aqueous solution of NTO. Their particle sizes were ranged 20 to 30 $\mu\textrm{m}$. In gas anti-solvent method with NTO/DMF and NTO/DMSO solutions, cubic type of NTO was obtained and the range of their sizes was 0.5-2$\mu\textrm{m}$.

The kinetics of crystal growth and nucleation in dependence on the supersaturation of an aqueous solution of 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one(NTO) were evaluated on the draft tube-baffle(DTB) crystallizer operated batchwise. The crystal growth rate is proportional to the supersaturation to the 2.9 power, and the nucleation rate to the 4.2 power. The uncleation behavior for NTO-water system in DTB crystallizer was grasped according to Mersmann's criteria. The nucleation in this crystallizer was found to act with heterogeneous nucleation and surface uncleation simultaneously. Simplified relation was derived for calculation of mean crystal size of product crystals from the batch cooling crystallizer. The obtained relation was verified by a set of experiments.

본 연구에서는 RF/DC dual 마그네트론 스퍼터 시스템을 이용하여 Glass 기판 상에 유기태양전지용 Nb-doped $TiO_2$ (NTO)/Ag/NTO 다층 투명전극을 성막하고 이 다층 투명전극을 $200^{\circ}C{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ 온도 범위에서 급속 열처리 (Rapid Thermal Annealing ; RTA)를 통하여 전기적, 광학적, 구조적 및 표면의 특성 변화를 연구하였다. Hall effect measurement, UV-Vis spectrometer, FESEM 분석을 통하여 다층투명전극의 전기적, 광학적, 표면분석을 하였고 Synchrotron 분석을 통하여 온도에 따른 구조변화를 분석하였다. 상온에서 성막된 다층투명전극은 30nm 두께의 NTO 박막 사이에 얇은 9nm의 얇은 Ag 층을 삽입한 구조로써 10ohm/square 이하의 매우 낮은 면저항과 ${\sim}10^{-5}\;ohm-cm$ 의 비저항, Anti-reflection 효과에 의해 85% 이상의 높은 광투과성을 나타내었다. RTA 온도가 증가함에 따라 전기적, 광학적 특성은 약간 향상되었고 비정질 구조를 유지함을 알 수 있었다. 그러나 높은 온도범위에서는 비정질 구조에서 Anatase 상으로 결정구조가 변화함을 알 수 있었고 전기적, 광학적 특성이 감소됨을 알 수 있었다. NTO/Ag/NTO 다층 투명전극을 유기태양전의 Anode로 적용하여 특성을 비교한 결과 RTA 온도가 증가함에 따라 유기태양전지의 효율 또한 증가하였고 최적화된 온도 조건에서 2.49% 의 높은 효율을 얻을 수 있었다. 이를 통해 우수한 특성을 나타내는 NTO/Ag/NTO 다층투명전극이 기존의 디스플레이 및 태양전지 등의 투명전극 재료로 주로 사용되어 온 ITO (Indium Tin Oxide) 를 대체 할 수 있는 재료로써의 가능성을 제시하였다.

A solid-state route was used to prepare sodium titanium oxide (NTO, Na2Ti3O7) as a solar heat protecting material with an impressive solar reflectance (TSR = 94.3%) using a high refractive index rutile TiO2. The solar reflectance of the synthesized NTO was measured using UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. Solar reflectance property of the synthesized compound depends on the calcination temperature. The solar reflectance property of the synthesized NTO powder was compared with commercial rutile TiO2. The compound synthesized at 900 ℃ for 24 hrs had remarkable solar reflectance 94.3% than that calcined below 900 ℃. Crystalline nature, structural property, morphology and optical properties of NTO powders were characterized and analyzed using XRD, FE-SEM, EDS and UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer. From the results, we guessed that NTO would be a suitable "solar heat protecting candidate" for energy-saving applications in coating industries.

The structure of Yb complex with 3-nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one(NTO), $[Yb(NTO)3(H2O)4].5H2O$ has been investigated by X-ray diffraction method. Crystallographic data for the title compound : monoclinic, C2/c, $a=36.925(2){\AA},$ b=6.6770(4)${\AA},$ c=25.6376(15)${\AA},$ {\beta}=130.978(1)^{\circ},$ V=4772.0(5)${\AA}^3,$ Z=8, $D_c,=1.952\; Mg/m^3.$ The intensity data were collected on a Broker SMART diffractometer equipped with a CCD area detector using Mo $K\alpha$ radiation.

The three carbonyls of three NTO anions and four ligand water molecules which are formed the pentagonal bipyramid are coordinated with $Yb^{3+}$ and also five water molecules are included in the form of the crystal water in the molecular structure.

Nb-doped $TiO_2$(NTO) coated NiCrAl alloy foam for hydrogen production is prepared using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis deposition(USPD) method. To optimize the size and distribution of NTO particles based on good physical and chemical stability, we synthesize particles by adjusting the weight ratio of the Nb precursor solution(5 wt%, 10 wt% and 15 wt%). The morphological, chemical bonding, and structural properties of the NTO coated NiCrAl alloy foam are investigated by X-ray diffraction(XRD), X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy(XPS), and Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy(FESEM). As a result, the samples of controlled Nb weight ratio exhibit a common diffraction pattern at ${\sim}25.3^{\circ}$, corresponding to the(101) plane, and have chemical bonding(O-Nb=O) at 534 eV. The NTO particles with the optimum weight ratio of N (10 wt%) show a uniform distribution with a size of ~18.2-21.0 nm. In addition, they exhibit the highest corrosion resistance even in the electrochemical stability estimation. As a result, the introduction of NTO coated NiCrAl alloy foam by USPD improves the chemical stability of the NiCrAl alloy foam by protecting the direct electrochemical reaction between the foam and the electrolyte. Thus, the optimized NTO coating can be proposed for excellent protection of NiCrAl alloy foam for hydrocarbon-based steam methane reforming(SMR).

N-doped Na₂Ti₆O₁₃@TiO₂ (denoted as N-NTO@TiO₂) composites are successfully synthesized using a simple two-step process: 1) ball-milling of TiO₂ with Na₂CO₃ followed by heat treatment at 900℃; 2) mixing of the prepared Na₂Ti₆O₁₃ with titanium isopropoxide and calcining with urea at 500℃. The prepared composites are characterized using XRD, SEM, TEM, FTIR, and BET. The N-NTO@TiO₂ composites exhibit well-defined crystalline and anatase TiO₂ with exposed {101} facets on the external surface. Moreover, dopant N atoms are uniformly distributed over a relatively large area in the lattice of the composites. Under visible light irradiation, ~51% of the aqueous methylene blue is photodegraded by N-NTO@TiO₂ composites, which is higher than the values shown by other samples because of the coupling effects of the hybridization of NTO and TiO₂, N-doping, and presence of anatase TiO₂ with exposed {101} facets.

A spacecraft obtains a reaction momentum required for an orbit correction and an attitude control by exhausting a combustion gas through a small thruster in space. If the exhaust plume collides with spacecraft surfaces, it is very important to predict the exhaust plume behavior of the thruster when designing a satellite, because a generated disturbance force/torque, a heat load and a surface contamination can yield a life shortening and a reduction of the spacecraft function. The purpose of the present study is to ensure the core technology required for the spacecraft design by analyzing numerically the exhaust gas behavior of the 10 N class bipropellant thruster for an attitude control of the spacecraft. To do this, calculation results of chemical equilibrium reaction between a MMH for fuel and a NTO for oxidizer, and continuum region of the nozzle inside are implemented as inlet conditions of the DSMC method for the exhaust plume analysis. From these results, it is possible to predict a nonequilibrium expansion such as a species separation and a backflow in the vicinity of the bipropellant thruster nozzle.

Existing CAD systems do nto provide the advanced function for systematic checking of design and drafting errors in mechanical drawings. This paper describes a method for sytematic checking of global parts in mechanical drawings. The checking items are deficiency and redundancy of dimensions, input-errors in dimension figures and symbols, etc. Checking for deficiency and redundancy of global dimensions has been performed applying Graph Theory. This system has been applied to several examples and we have confirmed the feasibility of this checing method.
