  • We study the diffusion of Ag based bimetallic nanoclusters supported on graphite. Using a molecular dynamics simulation, we reveal that the Ag clusters show rapid diffusion because of their hexagonal bottom layer. In order to decrease the rate of diffusion, we added Pt and Ni to distort the structure of the alloy cluster (i.e., the alloying method). We expected Pt to provide a stronger force on Ag atoms, and Ni to shorten the bond length and thereby change the structure of Ag cluster. However, the attempt was unsuccessful, because Pt and Ni atoms formed cores inside the Ag clusters. We therefore designed a collision system where large Ag clusters collide with small Pt or Ni clusters. Upon collision with Pt clusters, the diffusion showed little change, because Pt atoms are substituted at the Ag atomic site and form a perfectly ordered structure. The collision with Ni, however, deforms the bottom layer as well as the overall cluster structure and decreases diffusion. This outcome appoints toward the possibility of further application to the manufacture of durable nanocatalysts.

  • This experimental study was to determine the fitness in each cervical margin of reusing porcelain gold alloy. The gold alloy used in this experimental study was a Au-Pt-Pd alloy (BDCG-898, Bukwang Inc, Korea) for the fabrication of porcelain fused to metal crown. Twenty-five copings were divided into the five groups. And the group A, B, C, D and E were cording successively according to the frequency of reuse to five times. Each specimen was reused without adding new metal. The experimental results were as follows: 1. The group A, B, C showed good fitness in each cervical margin. 2. The group D got good fitness in labio and linguo cervical margin, but the mesio and disto cervical margin showed more than $40{\mu}m$ 3. The group E showed worse fitness than the other groups in each cervical margin.

  • The PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C electrocatalysts were synthesized via the irreversible adsorption of Pd and Bi ions precursors on commercial Pt/C catalysts. XRD and XPS revealed the formation of an alloy structure among Pt, Bi, and Pd atoms. The current of direct formic acid oxidation (Id) increased ~ 8 and 16 times for the PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C catalysts, respectively, than that of commercial Pt/C because of the electronic, geometric, and third body effects. In addition, the increased ratio between the current of direct formic acid oxidation (Id) and the current of indirect formic acid oxidation (Iind) for the PtBi/C and PtBiPd/C catalysts suggest that the dehydrogenation pathway is dominant with less CO formation on these catalysts.

  • $Co_{78-x}Pt_xB_{10}Si_{12}$ alloys were produced using the melt-spin process in order to study the crystallization behavior and ensuing magnetic properties of the $Co_{78-x}Pt_xB_{10}Si_{12}$ (Co-Pt) amorphous alloys as a function of the Pt content. We showed that when $\chi$ $>$ 15 well below its stoichiometric composition, CoPt crystallized in the amorphous alloy, thus greatly altering the crystallized microstructure and magnetic properties during annealing. Below this composition, the main crystallization product was Co with Pt dissolved in its lattice. In spite of the nucleation of CoPt with high magnetic anisotropy, the highest coercivity was obtained when x was 15. It was also concluded that the Pt addition deteriorated the glass stability, triggering the devitrification at a progressively lower temperature.

  • Direct borohydrides fuel cell (DBFC) was emerged to complement the problem of DMFC's low performance and methanol crossover to the cathode and to apply the fuel cell to portable and mobile devices. In this study, the characteristics of novel catalysts was tested to establish the electrode preparation process of DBFC. Pt black and carbon supported-Pt by paste method were used as the cathode catalysts. Pt black, carbon supported-Au and $AB_5$ alloy were used as the anode catalysts. The characteristics of the electrodes were analyzed by XRD, SEM, EDS. The performance test of single cell using the electrodes were carried out in order to evaluate the electrode performance. In the result, the maximum power output was obtained as 366 mW/mg when using Pt/C as anode and cathode catalysts.

  • The effects of annealing after deposition on the magnetic and magneto-optical properties of MnSbPt thin films prepared by rf sputtering were investigated. The MnSbPt alloy thin films were annealed in a vacuum with $10^{-5}$ Torr and the air, respectively, as a function of temperature and time. The films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours was found to have the highest value of the saturation magnetization. The films annealed in the air did not show any thermal degradations, which indicates their chemical stability for the magneto-optical recording process. It was revealed that the $Mn_{43}Sb_{46}Pt_{11}$ films annealed at $300^{\circ}C$ for 4hours in a vacuum with $10^{-5}$ Torr exhibit high Kerr rotation angle of $0.8^{\circ}$ for the incident wavelength of 550nm, which is ascribed to the increase of the volume ratio of Clb phase. However, similar to the PtMnSb alloy thin films, these films are still horizontally magnetized and have the coercive field less than 400 Oe.
