Heteroepitaxial growth remains as one of the continuously growing interests, because the heterogeneous crystallization on different substrates is a common feature in the fabrication processes of many semiconductor materials and devices, such as molecular beam epitaxy, pulsed laser deposition, sputtering, chemical bath deposition, chemical vapor deposition, hydrothermal synthesis, vapor phase transport and so on [1,2]. By using the R.F. sputtering system, ZnO thin films were deposited on graphene 4 and 6 mono layers, which is grown on 400 nm and 600 nm $SiO_2$ substrates, respectively. The ZnO thin layer was deposited at various temperatures by using a ZnO target. In this experimental, the working power and pressure were $3{\times}10^{-3}$ Torr and 50 W, respectively. The base pressure of the chamber was kept at a pressure around $10^{-6}$ Torr by using a turbo molecular pump. The oxygen and argon gas flows were controlled around 5 and 10 sccm by using a mass flow controller system, respectively. The structural properties of the samples were analyzed by XRD measurement. The film surface and carrier concentration were analyzed by an atomic force microscope and Hall measurement system. The surface morphologies were observed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM).

The oxidation of $Fe_{73}Si_{16}B_7Nb_3Cu_1$ nanocrystalline powder has been conducted to investigate its influence on the electromagnetic wave absorption characteristics of the soft magnetic material. Oxidation occurred primarily on the surface of nanocrystals. Oxidation reduced the real part of complex permeability due to the reduction of the relative volume of the powder, which otherwise contributes to the permeability. Oxidation reduced the absorption efficiency of the sheet at frequencies over 1GHz, indicating that the relative contribution of skin depth increments to the absorption was not significant. The pulverization and milling process lowered the optimum crystallization temperature of the material by $40{\sim}50^{\circ}C$ because of the internal energy accumulated during the fragmentation and powder thinning processes.

Electroless Ni-Cu-P alloy plating of Al base hard disk was performed to investigate some properties according to the change of composition. It was found that the composition of Ni and Cu in deposits changed linearly with increasing the mole ratio of NiSO4.6H2O/CuSO4.5H2O. The increase in hardness by heat - treatment was confirmed to be associated with small size grained crystallization of the amorphous deposits. Acid resistance of all deposits layer. which had been heated up to 30$0^{\circ}C$, was found to be exellent when immersed in 1N-H2SO4 solution, and it showed more superior acid resistance with decreasing Cu content and with increasing P. The resistivity of the deposits heat treated became smaller at temperature more than 50$0^{\circ}C$, and it became largerly with increasing P content. Cu 44.1wt% alloy(C bath) showed the most superior non-magnetically stable characteristics after heat treatment. It was superiorly with higher temperature and with decreasing P content.

Relationships between the electrical resistivity and the growth characteristic of $SnO_2$ thin films were investigated. $SnO_2$ thin films with thickness from 64 nm to 91 nm were made by controlling the RF deposition energy from 80 to 150 W. These $SnO_2$ thin films were annealed at $200^{\circ}C{\sim}700^{\circ}C$ temperature range of $100^{\circ}C$ interval in the $O_2$ gas condition. After annealing treatments, the microstructures of the $SnO_2$ thin films were changed mixed structure(amorphous & crystalline) to lamina columnar crystalline structure. Both the film thickness and the grain size were increased with increasing the local crystallization of $SnO_2$ microstructure of thin films by annealing treatment. Their electrical resistivity increased up to the annealing temperature of $400^{\circ}C$, and then slowly decreased.

($Ba_{0.7}Sr_{0.3})TiO_3$박막을 ITO-coated glass 기판위에 spin-coating법으로 제조하였다. 제조된 용액을 초음파 bath 내에서 초음파 처리하여 균일화를 촉진시킨 후 박막을 제조하여 초음파 처리하지 않은 용액으로 제조한 박막과의 비교를 통하여 초음파 효과를 알아보았다. 용액의 초음파 처리로 박막의 결정화 온도를 다소 낮추었으며 박막의 표면이 보다 균일하고 치밀화되었고 거칠기도 8.4nm에서 5.6nm로 더 낮아졌다. 그리고 박막의 투광성 및 전기적 특성 또한 용액의 초음파 처리로 인하여 향상되었다.

We added surface-modified silica nanoparticles to poly(ethylene 2,6-naphthalate) (PEN) to investigate their effect on the mechanical properties on the PEN nanocomposite material. The torque and total torque values of the composites decreased in the silica nanoparticle composites. The tensile modulus of the composites reinforced with unmodified silica nanoparticles increased upon increasing the silica content, while the tensile strength and elongation decreased accordingly. In contrast, stearic acid-modified, silica nanoparticle reinforced PEN composites exhibited an increase in elongation and a decrease in tensile modulus upon addition of the silica nanoparticles because the stearic acid that had adsorbed onto the surface of the silica nanoparticle in multilayers could act as a plasticizer during melt compounding. Stearic acid modification had a small effect on the crystallization behavior of the composites. We calculated theoretical values of the tensile modulus using the Einstein, Kerner, and Nielsen equations and compared these values with the experimental data obtained from the composites. The parameters calculated using the Nielsen equation and the Nicolais- Narkis model revealed that the interfacial adhesion between silica nanoparticles and the PEN matrix could be improved.

We developed a simple and effective purification method to obtain high-purity single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) with low surface damage. The purification process consists of oxidization at $430^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in a furnace system of air atmosphere and homogenization in dilute hydrochloric acid solution for extremely short time. The role of homogenizer was examined during purification process in terms of purity and quality of purified SWCNTs. High-purity and low surface damage of SWCNT products was obtained using homogenizer which was operated at 8500 rpm for 10 min in the environment of 7 % HCI solution. From XRD spectra, we observed that metal catalysts were thoroughly removed. Raman spectra showed that the intensity values of crystallization ($I_{G}/I_{D}$) of purified SWCNTs were very similar with that of pristine SWCNTs. Moreover, the structure damage of purified SWCNTs was hard to find from electron microscopy. Consequently, homogenizing, which is a quick and simple manner, can be promising method for obtaining final SWCNTs with clearly high purity and crystallinity.

Deposition characteristics of electroless plated Ni-W-P films were investigated for various complexing agents. Used complexing agents are sodium citrate, sodium gluconate and sodium malonate. In this study, the existing mixed potential theory could explain the overall mechanism of Ni-W-P electroless plating for all complexing agents. The deposition rate could be also expected by the theory. The deposited Ni-W-P films were evaluated in term of surface hardness and corrosion resistance. Microhardness of the deposit increased about 1,000 Hv after heat treatment for one hour at $400^{\circ}C$, because it was above the crystallization temperature of $Ni_3P$. The deposited Ni-W-P films can exhibit excellent corrosion resistance in using sodium malonate as a complexing agent, the other hand the using sodium gluconate was the worst corrosion resistance. The worst corrosion resistance was due to a large number of nano-sized pin-holes or small pores. The plating current at the mixed potential increases when the using sodium malonate as a complexing agent, it was explained by the cross section.

PVDF membrane formation via TIPS was performed for PVDF/DBP and PVDF/DMP systems. PVDF/DBP system showed solid-liquid phase separation behavior, while PVDF/DMP system has liquid-liquid phase separation characteristic as well as solid-liquid phase separation characteristic. PVDF contents and cooling conditions had great influence on structure, and the effects of each parameter were examined. Spherulitic structure was obtained due to the dominant PVDF crystallization. Diluent rejected to the outside of spherulite occupied the surface of the PVDF spherulites to result in the microporous spherulite formation and micro-void between spherulites. PVDF/DMP system had competitive solid-liquid and liquid-liquid phase separation depending on the cooling path.

Archaerhodopsin (aR), a light-driven proton pump found in HaIonubrum sp. aus-l, was crystallized into an octahedral crystal belonging to the space group P4$_3$2$_1$2. It is shown that aR is composed of7 helical segments and an anti-para1leI ${\beta}$ sheet. The main-chain sIrudure of aR is nearly identical to that of bacteriorhodopsin, but a significant structural difference is observed in the protein surface, especially at lipid binding sites.
