Electromagnetic wave energies are consumed in the form of thermal energy, which is mainly caused by magnetic loss, dielectric loss and conductive loss. In this study, CNT was added to the nanocrystalline soft magnetic materials inducing a high magnetic loss, in order to improve the dielectric loss of the EM wave absorption sheet. Generally, the aspect ratio and the dispersion state of CNT can be changed by the pre-ball milling process, which affects the absorbing properties. After the various ball-milling processes, 1wt% of CNTs were mixed with the nanocrystalline $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_{3}Cu_1$ base powder, and then further processed to make EM absorption sheets. As a result, the addition of CNT to Fe-based nanocrystalline materials improved the absorption properties. However, the increase of ball-milling time for more than 1h was not desirable for the powder mixture, because the ballmilling caused the shortening of CNT length and the agglomeration of the CNT flakes.

A surface acoustic wave (SAW) filter structure was fabricated employing $4{\mu}m$ thick nanocrystalline diamond (NCD) and $2.2{\mu}m$ thick ZnO films on Si wafer. The NCD film was deposited in an $Ar/CH_4$ gas mixture by microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition method. The ZnO film was formed over the NCD film in an RF magnetron sputter using ZnO target and $Ar/O_2$ gas. On the top of the two layers, copper film was deposited by the RF sputter and inter digital transducer (IDT) electrode pattern (line/space : $1.5/1.5{\mu}m$) was defined by the photolithography including a lift-off etching process. The fabricated SAW filter exhibited the center frequency of 1.66 GHz and the phase velocity of 9,960 m/s, which demonstrated that a giga Hertz SAW filter can be realized by utilizing the nanocrystalline diamond thin film.

We studied the influence of nanocrystalline silicon (nc-Si) thin film thickness on top gate nc-Si thin film transistor (TFT) fabricated at $180^{\circ}C$. The nc-Si thickness affects the characteristics of nc-Si TFT due to the nc-Si growth similar to a columnar. As the thickness of nc-Si increases from 40 nm to 200 nm, the grain size was increased from 20 nm to 40 nm. Having a large grain size, the thick nc-Si TFT surpasses the thin nc-Si TFT in terms of electrical characteristics such as field effect mobility. The channel resistance was decreased due to growth of the grain. We obtained the experimental results that the field effect mobility of the fabricated devices of which nc-Si thickness is 60, 90 and 130 nm are 26, 77 and $119\;cm^2/Vsec$, respectively. The leakage current, however, is increased from $7.2{\times}10^{-10}$ to $1.9{\times}10^{-8}\;A$ at $V_{GS}=-4.4\;V$ when the nc-Si thickness increases. It is originated from the decrease of the channel resistance.

In this study, nanocrystalline nickel powders were cold compacted by a dynamic compaction method using a single-stage gas gun system. A bending test was conducted to measure the bonding strengths of the compacted regions and microstructures of the specimen were analyzed using a scanning electron microscopy. The specimen was separated into two parts by a horizontal crack after compaction. Density test shows that the powder compaction occurred only in the upper part of the specimen. Brittle fracture was occurred during the bending test of the compact sample. Dispersion of shock energy due to spalling highly affected the bonding status of the nanocrystalline nickel powder.

The electromagnetic (EM) wave absorption properties of the $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ nanocrystalline powder mixed with 5 to 20 vol% of Ni-Zn ferrites has been investigated in a frequency range from 100MHz to 10GHz. Amorphous ribbons prepared by a planar flow casting process were pulverized and milled after annealing at 425 for 1 hour. The powder was mixed with a ferrite powder at various volume ratios to tape-cast into a 1.0mm thick sheet. Results showed that the EM wave absorption sheet with Ni-Zn ferrite powder reduced complex permittivity due to low dielectric constant of ferrite compared with nanocrystalline powder, while that with 5 vol% of ferrite showed relatively higher imaginary part of permeability. The sheet mixed with 5 vol% ferrite powder showed the best electromagnetic wave absorption properties at high frequency ranges, which resulted from the increased imaginary part of permeability due to reduced eddy current.

Nanocrystalline $BaTiO_3$ powder could be synthesized by solid-state reaction using the mixture which was prepared by a high energy milling process in a bead mill for $BaCO_3$ and nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ powders mixture. Effect of the milling time on the powder characteristic of the synthesized $BaTiO_3$ powder was investigated. Nanocrystalline $BaTiO_3$ with a particle size of 50 nm was obtained at $800^{\circ}C$. High tetragonal $BaTiO_3$ powder with a tetragonality(=c/a) of 1.009 and a specific surface area of $7.6m^2/g$ was acquired after heat-treatment at $950^{\circ}C$ for 2 h. High energy ball milling was effective in decreasing the reaction temperature and increasing the tetragonality.

In this paper, nanocrystalline indium tin oxide (ITO) particles were fabricated by using synthesis without harmful elements. The synthetic method is to eliminate the chloridic and nitridic elements which are included in the current wet type synthetic method. Therefore, it is possible to lower synthetic temperature below 600 $^{\circ}C$ to eliminate the harmful elements. Accordingly, fine particle can be achieved by applying the process. Particle size, surface area, crystal structure, and composition ratio of the synthesized nanocrystalline ITO particle by using the method were analyzed with high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), BET surface area analyzer, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS). As a result, its particle size is less than 10 nm, and the surface area exceeds 100 m$^2$/g. The XRD analysis indicates that the cystal structure of the powder is cubic one with orientation of <222>, <400>, <440>. Also, the analysis of the composition demonstrates that the around 8 wt% tin is uniformly included in In$_2$O$_3$ lattice of the nanoparticle.
