Codeposited of boron nitride(BN) particle dispersed into electroless nickel-phosphours (Ni-P) and nickel-boron(Ni-B) platings were studied for the purpose of developing the wear resistance and lubricity. BN can be codeposited from electroless nickel plating bath with $NaH_2PO_2$ and $NaBH_4$ as the reducing agents. Most dispersolids were distributed uniformly in the Ni-P and Ni-B matrix. Abrasion loss decreased with increasing amount of codeposits and reached a constant value 2.4 percent by volume percent of BN particle. The wear resistance and the friction coefficient of the heat treated BN composite coatings were improved about three times than that of as-coatings. The BN composite coatings were more wear resistance than hard chromium. Ni-B-BN composite coatings showed lower wear resistance and friction coefficient than Ni-P-BN. The BN content of the deposite was found to be 2.4 v/o for these optium conditions.

In this work, the electrical explosion of wire in liquid and subsequent spark plasma sintering (SPS) was introduced for the fabrication of Ni-graphite nanocomposites. The fabricated composite exhibited good enhancements in mechanical properties, such as yield strength and hardness, but reduced the ductility in comparison with that of nickel. The as-synthesized Ni-graphite (5 vol.% graphite) nanocomposite exhibited a compressive yield strength of 275 MPa (about 1.6 times of SPS-processed monolithic nickel ~170 MPa) and elongation to failure ~22%. The hardness of Ni-graphite composite had a value of 135.46 HV, which is about 1.3 times higher than that of pure SPS-processed Ni (105.675 HV). In terms of processing, this work demonstrated that this processing route is a novel, simple, and low-cost method for the synthesis of nickel-graphite composites.

We deposited nickel oxide(NiO) thin films on silicon(Si) substrates at Room temperature and $500^{\circ}C$ using a nickel target by reactive DC and RF sputtering. In addition, we anneal to NiO thin films deposited at room temperature. Using spectroscopic eillipsometry, we obtained optical characteristics of every films. We discussed relations of the optical and structural properties of NiO thin films with the oxygen flow rate, substrate temperature and annealing temperatures. Refraction was decreased and defect was increased when NiO thin films was annealed. We also analyzed the electrical characteristics of NiO films which deposited DC and RF sputtering method.

Plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) is well-known for fabricating conformal and uniform films with a well-controlled thickness at the atomic level over any type of supporting substrate. We prepared nickel oxide (NiO) thin films via PEALD using bis(ethylcyclopentadienyl)-nickel ($Ni(EtCp)_2$) and $O_2$ plasma. To optimize the PEALD process, the effects of parameters such as the precursor pulsing time, purging time, $O_2$ plasma exposure time, and power were examined. The optimal PEALD process has a wide deposition-temperature range of $100-325^{\circ}C$ and a growth rate of $0.037{\pm}0.002nm$ per cycle. The NiO films deposited on a silicon substrate with a high aspect ratio exhibited excellent conformality and high linearity with respect to the number of PEALD cycles, without nucleation delay.

This study reports an environment-friendly synthetic strategy to process nickel oxide nanocrystals. A mesoporous nickel oxide nanostructure was synthesized using an environmentally benign biomimetic method. We used a natural rambutan peel waste resource as a raw material to ligate nickel ions to form nickel-ellagate complexes. The direct decomposition of the obtained complexes at $700^{\circ}C$, $900^{\circ}C$ and $1100^{\circ}C$ in a static air atmosphere resulted in mesoporous nickel oxide nanostructures. The formation of columnar mesoporous NiO with a concentric stacked doughnuts architecture was purely dependent on the suitable direct decomposition temperature at $1100^{\circ}C$ when the synthesis was carried out. The prepared NiO nanocrystals were coated on cotton fabric and their antibacterial activity was also analyzed. The NiO nanoparticle-treated cotton fabric exhibited good antibacterial and wash durability performance.

The silicide is a compound of Si with an electropositive component. Silicides are commonly used in silicon-based microelectronics to reduce resistivity of gate and local interconnect metallization. The popular silicide candidates, CoSi2 and TiSi2, have some limitations. TiSi2 showed line width dependent sheet resistance and has difficulty in transformation of the C49 phase to the low resistive C54. CoSi2 consumes more Si than TiSi2. Nickel silicide is a promising material to substitute for those silicide materials providing several advantages; low resistivity, lower Si consumption and lower formation temperature. Nickel silicide (NiSi) nanowire (NW) has features of a geometrically tiny size in terms of diameter and significantly long directional length, with an excellent electrical conductivity. According to these advantages, NiSi NWs have been applied to various nanoscale applications, such as interconnects [1,2], field emitters [3], and functional microscopy tips [4]. Beside its tiny geometric feature, NW can provide a large surface area at a fixed volume. This makes the material viable for photovoltaic architecture, allowing it to be used to enhance the light-active region [5]. Additionally, a recent report has suggested that an effective antireflection coating-layer can be made with by NiSi NW arrays [6]. A unique growth mechanism of nickel silicide (NiSi) nanowires (NWs) was thermodynamically investigated. The reaction between Ni and Si primarily determines NiSi phases according to the deposition condition. Optimum growth conditions were found at $375^{\circ}C$ leading long and high-density NiSi NWs. The ignition of NiSi NWs is determined by the grain size due to the nucleation limited silicide reaction. A successive Ni diffusion through a silicide layer was traced from a NW grown sample. Otherwise Ni-rich or Si-rich phase induces a film type growth. This work demonstrates specific existence of NiSi NW growth [7].

Objective: The aim of this trial was to compare the alignment efficiency and intermaxillary arch dimension changes of nickel-titanium (NiTi) or copper-nickel-titanium (CuNiTi) round archwires with increasing diameters applied sequentially to the mandibular arch. Methods: The initial alignment phase of fixed orthodontic treatment with NiTi or CuNiTi round archwires was studied in a randomly allocated sample of 66 patients. The NiTi group comprised 26 women, 10 men, and the CuNiTi ($27^{\circ}C$) group comprised 20 women, 10 men. The eligibility criteria were as follows: anterior mandibular crowding of minimum 6 mm according to Little's Irregularity Index (LII), treatment requiring no extraction of premolars, 12 to 18 years of age, permanent dentition, skeletal and dental Class I malocclusion. The main outcome measure was the alignment of the mandibular anterior dentition; the secondary outcome measure was the change in mandibular dental arch dimensions during 12 weeks. Simple randomization (allocation ratio 1:1) was used in this single-blind study. LII and mandibular arch dimensions were measured on three-dimensional digital dental models at 2-week intervals. Results: No statistically significant difference was observed between NiTi and CuNiTi according to LII (p > 0.05). Intercanine and intermolar arch perimeters increased in the CuNiTi group (p < 0.001). Inter-first premolar width showed a statistically significant interaction in week ${\times}$ diameter ${\times}$ application (p < 0.05). Conclusions: The effects of NiTi and CuNiTi round archwires were similar in terms of their alignment efficiency. However, the intercanine and intermolar arch perimeters, and the inter-first premolar width changes differed between groups.

나노 크기의 NiO 분말을 Ni 산성염과 Ni 염기성염을 혼합하여 제조하는 방법에서 원료가 생성되는 NiO와 이의 환원으로 생성되는 Ni 결정 특성에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 산성염으로는 Ni formate를 염기성염으로는 수산화 Ni과 염기성 Ni 탄산염을 사용하였다. 혼합비는 산성염 1당량에 염기성염 9당량을 사용하였으며, 탄산염을 사용한 경우 $750^{\circ}C$/2 h 하소에서도 ~100 nm의 구형의 NiO 분말을 얻었으며, 수산화 염을 사용한 경우는 $600^{\circ}C$/2 h에서는 ~100 nm의 유사 구형의 NiO가 생성되나, $750^{\circ}C$ 열처리에서는 100~600 nm의 유사 입방체 분말을 얻었다. 수산화 염을 사용한 경우에는 탄산염을 사용한 경우에 비하여 수소가스에 의한 환원이 훨씬 빠르게 진행되어 necking이 일어나며 소결이 이루어져 다공체를 형성하였다. 이들 특성을 TG/DSC, XRD, SEM으로 분석하였다.

양이온성(C), 음이온성(A) 및 비이온성(N) 계면활성제 각각을 주형물질로 사용하여 중형기공성 알루미나 (A-C, A-A 및 A-N)를 제조한 후, 이를 담체로 활용하여 일반적인 함침법으로 담지 니켈촉매(Ni/A-C, Ni/A-A 및 Ni/A-N)를 제조하였으며, 이를 액화천연가스의 수증기 개질반응에 의한 수소 제조에 적용하였다. 소성된 촉매에서 니켈종은 계면활성제의 종류에 상관없이 중형기공성 알루미나 담체의 표면에 균일하게 분산되었다. 하지만 환원된 촉매에서 니켈과 알루미나 담체 간의 상호작용 세기는 계면활성제의 종류에 밀접하게 의존하였다. 액화천연가스 전환율 및 건가스 중 수소가스 조성은 Ni/A-C < Ni/A-A < Ni/A-N의 순으로 증가하였다. 환원된 촉매 상의 니켈 비표면적이 증가할수록 반응활성 역시 증가하는 것으로 나타났으며, 제조된 촉매중에서 니켈 비표면적이 가장 높은 Ni/A-N 촉매가 가장 높은 반응환성을 나타내었다.

Nanosize NiO powder was prepared by mixing acidic nickel nitrate with basic nickel carbonate. The particle size and morphology of NiO were mainly governed by the mole ratio of the nitrate to the carbonate. The effects were studied by DSC, XRD, FTIR, and SEM. Heat treatment conditions influence the particle size distribution of produced NiO powder extensively for the case of 3N7C (3 moles of the nitrate and 7 moles of the carbonate) and 4N6C, but only slightly for 1N9C and 2N8C. Uniform pseudospherical NiO particles were obtained in $50{\sim}70$ nm for 1N9C and $30{\sim}60$ nm for 2N8C by calcination at $750{^{\circ}C}$ for 2 h.
