Density, water resistance, Raman and infrared spectroscopy were used to investigate the change of structural characteristics with the composition of phosphate galss samples made by melting method. The structural abnormality of the density and water resistance were rapidly increased and shown near the 60mol% of $P_2O_5$. This result could be explained by the structural changes owing to the strong shrinkage of glass network by the coordination of DBO(Double-Bonded Oxygen) around $Mg^{2+}$ cations. In addition, it seems that the DBOs coordinating $Mg^{2+}$ cations lose its characteristics of double bonding and resonate with other NBOs(Non-Bonding Oxygen).

This study is concerned with a design methodology of optimized fuzzy clustering-based neural network classifier for classifying black plastic. Since the amount of waste plastic is increased every year, the technique for recycling waste plastic is getting more attention. The proposed classifier is on a basis of architecture of radial basis function neural network. The hidden layer of the proposed classifier is composed to FCM clustering instead of activation functions, while connection weights are formed as the linear functions and their coefficients are estimated by the local least squares estimator (LLSE)-based learning. Because the raw dataset collected from Raman spectroscopy include high-dimensional variables over about three thousands, principal component analysis(PCA) is applied for the dimensional reduction. In addition, artificial bee colony(ABC), which is one of the evolutionary algorithm, is used in order to identify the architecture and parameters of the proposed network. In experiment, the proposed classifier sorts the three kinds of plastics which is the most largely discharged in the real world. The effectiveness of the proposed classifier is proved through a comparison of performance between dataset obtained from chemical analysis and entire dataset extracted directly from Raman spectroscopy.

The growth behavior of $CH_4$ and $SF_6$ mixture gas hydrate has been investigated by a combined approach of Raman spectroscopy and molecular modeling. Raman spectroscopy results presented that when $CH_4$ is used only, $CH_4$ guest molecule is inserted first into the large cavity of the host structure built by $H_2O$ molecules and then into the small cavity to stabilize the whole gas hydrate structure. In the other hand, when $SF_6$ is mixed together, $SF_6$ is favored over (or competing with) $CH_4$ in being inserted into the large cavity and the small cavity still prefers $CH_4$ insertion. The calculations of binding energies clearly supported this. While $SF_6$ has a binding energy of -26.9 kcal/mol a little lower than -24.2 kcal/mol of $CH_4$ in the large cavity, $SF_6$ and $CH_4$ has 1.2 kcal/mol and -22.0 kcal/mol, respectively, in the small cavity. It indicates that the sizable $SF_6$ is not preferred in the small cavity but has a relative energetic advantage over $CH_4$ in the large cavity.

본 연구에서는 고밀도 플라즈마를 형성하는 planar magnetron RF 플라즈마 CVD를 이용하여 DLC(diamond-like carbon) 박막을 합성하였다. 이 방법을 이용하여 DLC 박막을 합성한다면 고밀도 플라즈마 때문에 종래의 플라즈마 CVD(RF-PECVD)법보다 증착속도가 더욱더 향상될 것이라는 것에 착안하였다. 이를 위해 magnetron에 의한 고밀도 플라즈마가 존재할 때도 역시 DLC박막형성에 미치는 RF 전력과 반응가스 압력이 중요한 반응변수인가에 대해 조사하였고, 일정한 자기장의 세기에서 RF전력과 DC self-bias 전압과의 관계를 조사하였다. 또한 RF전력변화에 따른 박막의 증착속도와 밀도를 측정하였다. 본 연구에 의해 얻어진 박막의 증착속도는 magnetron에 의한 이온화율이 매우 높아 기존의 RF-PECVD 법보다 매우 빠르며, DLC박막의 구조와 물질특성을 알아보기 위해 FTIR(fourier transform infrared)및 Raman 분광분석을 행한 결과 전형적인 양질의 고경질 다이아몬드상 탄소박막임을 알 수 있었다.

We have demonstrated structural evolution and optical properties of the Si-NWs on Si (111) substrates with synthesized nanoscale Au-Si islands by rapid thermal chemical vapor deposition(RTCVD). Au nano-islands (10-50nm in diameter) were employed as a liquid-droplet catalysis to grow Si-NWs via vapor-liquid-solid mechanism. Si-NWs were grown by a mixture gas of $SiH_4\;and\;H_2$ at pressures of $0.1{\sim}1.0$Torr and temperatures of $450{\sim}650^{\circ}C$. SEM measurements showed the formation of Si-NWs well-aligned vertically for Si (111) surfaces. The resulting NWs are 30-100nm in diameter and $0.4{\sim}12um$ in length depending on growth conditions. HR-TEM measurements indicated that Si-NWs are single crystals convered with about 3nm thick layers of amorphous oxide. In addition, optical properties of NWs were investigated by micro-Raman spectroscopy. The downshift and asymmetric broadening of the Si optical phonon peak with a shoulder at $480cm^{-1}$ were observed in Raman spectra of Si-NWs.

$LiCoO_2$ thin film has received diverse attention as cathodes material of thin-film micro-batteries. In this study, $LiCoO_2$ thin films were synthesized on Au substrates by sol-gel spin coating method and an annealing process. Their structures were studied using X-ray diffraction and Raman Spectroscopy. The particle morphologies of these thin films were observed by Scaning electron microscope. From the results of X-ray diffractometry and Raman Spectroscopy analyses, it was found that as-grown films had the structure of spinel (LT-$LiCoO_2$) and layered-Rock-salt (HT-$LiCoO_2$) at $550^{\circ}C$ and $750^{\circ}C$ respectively. The annealed films at $650^{\circ}C$ were presumed to be the mixed state of these two types. Throlugh the scanning electron microscope, It was estimated that the particle size in as-grown films at $750^{\circ}C$, were larger crystilline particle than in those at the other lower temperature and well distributed in the film.

The diamond particles and films were deposited on Si and qurtz substrate for $CH_4-H_2$ mixed gas by using RF plasma CVD. The temperature of substrate and the thinkness of films deposited on Si substrate were uniformly kept up by inserting metal plate between substrate and substrate holder. On increasing the reaction pressure in the same discharge power, the morphologies of films were changed from well-defind films to micro-crystal or ball-like. When diamond films were deposited on Si substrate from $CH_4-H_2$ mixed gas, we obtained well-defined diamond films at lower concentration than 0.5 vol% of $CH_4/H_2$. The deposited diamond films were indentified by SEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy.

Phase transformation of PbO-precursor prepared from $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ by precipitation technique was observed by TG-DTA, XRD, FT-IR, and Raman spectral analysis. PbO-precursor was derived from an aqueous solution of $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ at $45^{\circ}C$ and pH of 9.0. The precipitate showed it to be the mixture of hydrous lead oxynitrate and lead hydroxynitrate. With increasing heat-treatment temperature ranging up to $560^{\circ}C$, the precursor changed to $3Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$ . 7Pb0, $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$. 5Pb0 and PbO(litharge), in turn. Finally, it transformed to massicot form of PbO above $560^{\circ}C$.

탄소나노튜브(carbon nanotubes : CNTs)는 뛰어난 전기적, 물리적인 특성을 가지고 있기 때문에 다양한 분야에서 이를 활용하려는 노력들이 활발히 이루어지고 있다. CNTs의 전기적인 특성은 직경에 의해 결정되므로, 직경을 균일하게 제어하는 일이 CNTs를 기반으로 한 전자소자 응용에 가장 중요한 사항이라 할 수 있다. 일반적으로 화학기상증착법(chemical vapor deposition, CVD)으로 합성된 CNTs의 직경은 촉매의 크기에 의존하기 때문에, 촉매의 크기를 제어하기 위한 다양한 연구들이 활발히 진행되고 있다[1-3]. 하지만 CNTs의 성장온도 근처에서 촉매 입자는 표면 확산(surface diffusion)에 의해 응집(agglomeration)되기 때문에 작고 균일한 크기의 촉매를 얻기 어렵다. 본 연구에서는 Si(001) 기판 위에 지지층(supporting layer)인 Al의 두께를 변화시켜 증착하고, 열적산화과정을 통해 $Al_2O_3$ 층을 형성한 후 Fe을 증착하여 CNTs를 합성하였다. $Al_2O_3$ 지지층과 Fe 촉매입자의 구조와 화학적 상태를 원자힘현미경 (atomic force microscopy, AFM), 주사전자현미경 (scanning electron microscopy, SEM), 투과전자현미경 (transmission electron microscopy, TEM), X-선 광전자 분광기(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy)를 통해 분석하였고, 성장된 CNTs는 SEM, TEM, 라만 분광법 (Raman spectroscopy)을 통해 분석하였다. 그 결과, $Al_2O_3$ 층은 두께에 따라 각기 다른 표면 거칠기(RMS roughness)와 결정립(grain)의 크기를 갖게 되며, 이러한 표면구조가 Fe 촉매입자의 표면확산에 의한 응집에 관여하여 CNTs의 직경에 영향을 미치는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 $Al_2O_3$ 지지층의 두께가 15 nm인 경우, Fe의 응집현상이 억제되어 좁은 직경분포를 지닌 고순도 단일벽 탄소나노튜브(Single-walled CNTs)가 성장되는 것을 확인하였다.
