Properties of oxynitride films oxidized by $N_2O$ gas after thermal oxidation and $N_2O$ oxide films directly oxidized using $N_2O$ gas on the bare silicon wafer have been studied. Through the AES analysis, Nitrogen pile-up at the interface of Si/oxynitride and Si/$N_2O$ oxide has observed. Also, it could be presumed that there are differences in the mechanism of the growth of film by observing film growth. $N_2O$ oxide and oxynitride films have the self-limited characteristics. Therefore, it will be possible to obtain ultra-thin films. Nitrogen pile-up at the interfaces Si/oxynitride and Si/$N_2O$ oxide strengthens film structure and improves dielectric reliability. Although fixed charge densities and interface trap densities of $N_2O$ oxide and oxynitride films has somewhat higher than those of thermal $SiO_2,\;N_2O$ oxide and oxynitride films showed improved I-V characteristics and constant current stress.

The effect of hydrogen-nitrogen annealing on the interface trap properties of Metal-Oxide-Nitride-Oxide-Silicon (MONOS) capacitors is investigated by analyzing the capacitors' gate leakage current and the interface trap density between the Si and $SiO_2$ layer. MONOS samples annealed at $850^{\circ}C$ for 30 s by rapid thermal annealing (RTA) are treated by additional annealing in a furnace, using annealing eases $N_2$ and 2% hydrogen and 98% nitrogen gas mixture $(N_2-H_2)$ at $450^{\circ}C$ for 30 mins. Among the three samples as-deposited, annealed in $N_2$ and $N_2-H_2$, MONOS sample annealed in an $N_2-H_2$ environment is found to have the lowest increase of interface-trap density from the capacitance-voltage experiments. The leakage current of sample annealed in $N_2-H_2$ is also lower than that of sample annealed in $N_2$.

In Korea, the emission standards for air pollutants will be more tighten from Jan. 2005. Especially, the new emission standards is focused on the nitrogen oxide. From this trend of standards, nitrogen oxide emission is hot issue in energy fields. Also, we have a new environmental problem, the carbon dioxide emission, which are related to the global warming. To solve the environmental problems, we must define the situation of clean-up technologies level in Korea and decide the direction of R&D for flue gas cleaning technologies. Now, this paper discus briefly on the De-NOx R&D activities and the large scale testing facility for flue gas clean-up technologies in Korea Institute of Energy Research. These discussions are contribute to the increasing of the R&D activities for flue gas clean-up technologies in Korea.

The effect of nitrogen finishing for the control of coating weight in a nitrogen sealing box on the coating surface property in hot dip galvanizing process has been studied. The coated surface is free of oxide marks and edge overcoated. The coating uniformity is excellent ; the standard deviation of the coating thickness along width of the specimen was $1~1.2\mu\textrm{m}$ in the box whereas $2.5~3\mu\textrm{m}$ in the air. Considering surface quality of the coating such as oxide mark, edge overcoated and zinc dust, the oxygen content between 40 and 200 ppm was suggested in the box in addition the oxygen content of at least 40 ppm or the minimum dew point of $-27^{\circ}C$ is required to prevent a zinc vaporization.

The effect of fuel composition and coaxial air on the nitrogen oxide emission index was studied in a non-premixed turbulent jet flame. Validity of experimental setup and methodology is checked. The NOx emission trend is similar with previous works in hydrogen flame, but it's not well in $H_2/CO$ flame. Normalized EINOx scaling with modified $S_G$ applying near-field concept was conducted. Experimental data don't collapse single correlation curve, but partially same trend is observed in all cases.

Nitrogen oxide gases which were produced by spontaneous reaction of nitrocellulose(NC) in the single base propellant accelerate the decomposition of propellant, and result in the reduction of shelf life. The amount of nitrogen oxide was reduced by the addition of 0.3wt% $CaCO_3$ to conventional stabilizer(DPA) and down of the solvent leaching temperature from $64^{\circ}C$ to $56^{\circ}C$, which extended the shelf life of the single base propellant as much as twice compare with commercial propellant. The perforation diameter increase of propellant from 0.64mm to 0.77mm could compensate for the drop of burning rate which was caused the addition of $CaCO_3$.

This study is to develop electromagnetic plasma reactors for indoor air purification, Removal effect of nitrogen oxide using magnetic field are investigated. And AC or DC high voltage is applied for corona discharge, flow rates are 150${\sim}$1500${\ell}$/min and NO initial concentration is about 10 ppm. In the results, NOx removal rate by AC power is about 10 % higher than that by DC power under the experimental condition of 700 ${\ell}$/min, 5 magnets. When magnet is applied to the reactor, NOx removal rate increased.

Experimental study was conducted to investigate the effect of ultra-high injection pressure on combustion and emission characteristics in a single-cylinder diesel engine. Electronically controlled ultra-high pressure fuel injection system consistently supplied the fuel of ultra-high pressure up to 250 MPa. Various injection pressures, 40 to 250 MPa, were applied and compared. A injector with eight identical nozzle holes which have diameter of $105{\mu}m$ was used. The results showed high potential to improve the nitrogen oxide (NOx) and particulate matter (PM) trade-off relationship with an ultra-high injection pressure and the exhaust gas recirculation (EGR).

In this study, the effects of oxide layer farmed on the wear tracks of TiN coated silicon wafer on friction and wear characteristics were investigated. Silicon wafer was used for the substrate of coated disk specimens, which were prepared by depositing TiN coating with 1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in coating thickness. AISI 52100 steel ball was used fur the counterpart. The tests were performed both in air for forming oxide layer on the wear track and in nitrogen to avoid oxidation. This paper reports characterization of the oxide layer effects on friction and wear characteristics using X-ray diffraction(XRD), Auger electron spectroscopy(AES), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and multi-mode atomic force microscope(AFM).
