Optical measurements have been used to study the biaxial tensile strain in heteroeptaxial ZnTe epilayers on the (100) GaAs substrate by hot wall epitaxy (HWE) with Zn reservoir. It is effect on the low-temperature photoluminescence spectrum of the material. Optimum growth condition has been determined by a four-crystal rocking curve (FCRC) and a low temperature photoluminescence measurement (PL). It was found that Zn partial pressure from Zn reservoir has a strong influence on the quality of grown films. Under the determined optimum growth condition, ZnTe epitaxial films with thickness of 0.72~24.8$\mu\textrm{m}$ were grown for studying the effect of the thickness on crystalline quality. The PL and FCRC results indicated that the quality of ZnTe films becomes higher rapidly with increase of thickness up to 6$\mu\textrm{m}$. The best value of the FWHM of the four crystal rocking curve, 66 arcsec, was obtained on the film with 12$\mu\textrm{m}$ in thickness. The PL spectrum shows the splitted strong free exciton emissions and very weak deep band emissions. These results show the high quality of films.

Finned segment, with which are lined inner wall of the turbine combustors, are subject to severe degradation when they are exposed to a hostile environmment at elevated temperature. To protect the finned segment from this environment and to maintain good mechanical properties of components at high temperature, they are preferred to be coated. The most governing factor for the durability of coatings used in the high temperature is the microstructure of coatings; these are splat from, distibution of microcacks, size and distribution of pores, thickness of coating layer, adhesion between coating layer, and oxidation of band coating. In this study, based on the evaluation of the imported finned segment, new finned segment segment was manufactured with optimum plasma spraying parameters, and their properties were examined. Using $ZrO_2(8wt$Y_2O_3)$,/TEX> powder for ceramic coating and 67Ni-22Cr-10Al-0.5Y mixing powder for bond coating, thickness of ceramic and bond coating layer were varied in order to find optimum condition, the results showed that B2T4(bond coating : 100~250$\mu\textrm{m}$, ceramic coating : 250~300$\mu\textrm{m}$) was the best among the specimens tested. Compared to the imported finned segment, B2T4 has better bond strength, hardness, and isothermal and cyclic oxidation resistance.

$Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ thin films for solar absorber application were prepared by pulsed laser deposition of a synthesized $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ compound target. The film's composition revealed that the deposited films possess an identical composition with the target material. Further film compositional control toward a stoichiometric composition was performed by optimizing substrate temperature, deposition time and target rotational speed. At the optimum condition, X-ray diffraction patterns of films showed that the films demonstrated polycrystalline stannite single phase with a high degree of (112) preferred orientation. The absorption coefficient of $Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$ thin films were above 104 cm.1 with a band gap of 1.45 eV. At an optimum condition, films were identified as a p type semiconductor characteristic with a resistivity as low as $10^{-1}{\Omega}cm$ and a carrier concentration in the order of $10^{17}cm^{-3}$.

It designs the general description of 8-VSB DTV transmission system will be installed and operated in future on the basis of NTSC TV transmission system in operation now. First of all, it investigates a condition that can maintain optimum received field in case of ground wave broadcasting with analog NTSC and digital 8-VSB DTV. Also it calculates critical value of minimum field strength fur receiving by using field strength calculation method of Longley-Rice. The 8-VSB DTV transmission sets its goal in transmission of data with 19.39Mbps at high speed in order to be available of HDTV in the band of NTSC 6MHz. Accordingly, the optimum of field strength between transmission and receiving points most of all is important problem. So,8-VSB DTV transmission should be enlarged or effective compared with NTSC service coverage. This study is to calculate the transmission power necessary in switching from NTSC VHF to DTV UHF and from NTSC UHF to DTV UHF for maintaining service coverage that NTSC is equal to 8-VSB DTV as a result of calculation.

ZnO:Al films were prepared by an rf magnetron sputtering and targets for the experiments were fabricated by sintering the mixture of ZnO and Al2O3. The most conductive film was obtained from the target with 2.0∼2.2 wt.% of Al2O3. Optical properties studied with spectroscopic ellipsometry showed band gap widening, i.e., the Burstein-Moss shift, with aluminum doping as well as with the elevation of deposition temperature. And it is found that the optical and electrical properties were related to the density of states as well as the variation of donor level. when hydrogen atoms were introduced into the films, the activation energy for the generation of oxygen vacancy was smaller for the films showing higher conductivity. This indicates that the optimum deposition condition for highly conductive ZnO:Al film has strong relation to the optimum doping condition.

Bulk polymerization was used to produce poly(vinyl acetate) with different molecular weights, which were then saponified to prepare poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) with different molecular weights. With P_n of 2,060 and 3,240, the optimum film formation concentrations of PVA were found 7.5wt.% and 6.5wt.%, respectively. The drawing characteristics of the PVA film prepared at the optimum film formation concentrations were experimented, as well as the thermal characteristics of the PVA film based on the drawing ratio were observed. When the drawing velocity was fixed, it was found that the drawing ratios of all samples decreased as the heat band gap increased, and the melting temperature of the PVA film slightly increased as the drawing ratio increased regardless of the P_n of PVA.

In order to investigate morphological and cultural characteristics of strains in species, Flammulina velutipes, the author collected isolates of Flammultina velutipes at 49 locations in Korea and cultivated these isolates on the various kinds of solid media. After investigating the cultural characteristics, appeared on the various media, he obtained the following results : 1. The variation of colors in the fruit bodies is connected with the variation of climatic environments(composite effects between mean temperature in January and number of rain days of 1mm and over precipitation). The author, therfore, can find out the trend that brown type is distributed in the midland climatic region and yellow type in the southern climatic regoin. 2. Two types can be classified into several strains respectively : the strain of abundant or insufficient productivity, and strain of selectivity or non-selectivity of media. 3. According to the results of mutual comparison of soluble mycelial proteins by disc electrophoresis using polyacrylamide gels, each type has special common protein fractions(brown type : band located at 26..5mm position from surface of gel, yellow type : band located at 24.5mm position from surface of gel), and each strain has special protein fractions too. Therefore this phenomenon seems to support the results obtained by the above-stated morphological and cultural studies. 4. In the adaptability of strains to the temperature, every strain has the nature of growing in lower temperature(the optimum temperature of 20.deg.C to 25.deg.C) except that YI-1 strain has the optimum temperatue of $25^{\circ}C$-26^{\circ}C. And mycelial growth of every strain is discontinued at $35^{\circ}C.$ 5. In the adaptability of strains to the H-ion concentration, every strain has wide adaptable range of H-ion concentration, and has optimum range of pH 5.5 to 6.6 in mycelial growth excepting YA01, BI-2 and YI-1. 6. In the utility of carbon sources, the mycelial growth of every strain is very poor on the media containing xylose(average diameter of mycelial growth : 18mm), and most strains utilize favorably sucrose(39mm), maltose(37mm) and dextrose(35mm) in mycelial growth. In the utility of nitrogen sources, every strain utilizes favorably organic nitrogens(36 mm)more than inorganic nitrogens (25 mm), and utilizes fully peptone nad asparagine in organic nitrogens. Especially BA-1, BIK-2 and YA-1 strains grow vigorously on each media containing various carbon and nitrogen sources. 7. The characteristic tests of the number of days required for mycelial growth, the number of days requried for sprout of young bodies, the length of stipe and the number of fruit bodies formation seem to be useful methods in the early selection of the strain of the abundant productivity.
