In odder to investigate the magnetic properties of CoCr-based bilayered thin films on kind of underlayer, we introduced amorphous Si layer to Co-Cr(-Ta) magnetic layer as underlayer. First, we prepared CoCr and CoCrTa single layer using the Facing Targets Sputtering system to investigate theirs properties. It was revealed that with increasing the film thickness of CoCr, CoCrTa single layer, crystalline orientation and perpendicular coercivity was improved. The CoCrTa thin film showed bettor crystalline and magnetic characteristics than CoCr thin film. As a result of investigating magnetic properties of CoCr and CoCrTa magnetic layer on introducing the Si underlayer, perpendicular coercivity and saturation magnetization of CoCr/Si and CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film were decreased due to the increased grain size and diffusion of Si atoms to magnetic layer. And they showed constant with increasing the film thickness of Si thin film. However, in case of CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film, in-plane coercivity was controlled low at about 250Oe. The c-axis orientations of CoCr/si and CoCrTa/Si bilayered thin film showed a good crystalline characteristics as about $2^{\circ}$.

Microstructure, mechanical and fatigue behaviors of TiCN and TiN/TiCN thin films, deposited on quenched and tempered STD61 tool steel, were investigated by using XRD, XPS, hardness, adhesion and fatigue tests. The TiCN thin film is grown along the (100), (111) orientation, whereas the TiN/TiCN thin film is grown along the (111) orientation. The preferred orientation of TiN/TiCN thin film strongly depends on the TiN buffer layer whose orientation is (111), as is well-known. The TiN/TiCN thin film showed the higher adhesion compared with TiCN single layer because the TiN buffer layer, having good toughness, reduces the effects of the lower hardness of substrate. In the high cycle tension-tension fatigue test, the fatigue life of the TiCN and the TiN/TiCN coated steel increased approximately two to four times and five to nine times respectively compared with uncoated specimens. The TiN buffer layer in multilayer thin films plays an important role in reducing residual stress and fatigue crack initiation, and then in restraining the fatigue propagation.

We fabricated organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) based a fluorinated copper phthalocyanine ($F_{16}CuPC$) and copper phthalocyanine (CuPc) as an active layer. And we observed the surface morphology of the $F_{16}CuPC$ thin film. The $F_{16}CuPC$ thin film thickness was 40 nm, and the channel length was $50{\mu}m$, channel width was 3 mm. And we also fabricated the $F_{16}CuPc/CuPc$ double layer FET and with different $F_{16}CuPc$ film thickness devices. We observed the typical current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and capacitance-voltage (C-V) in $F_{16}CuPc$ FET and we calculated the effective mobility. From the double layer FET devices, we observed the higher drain current more than single layer FET devices.

The Anti-Rolling Tank(ART) has an advantage over the other roll stabilizing devices, when ship is staying and working at one site of sea. An important design point of ART is the tank tuning, that is, matching the tank natural period to the ship's roll natural period. Since the load condition and consequently the roll natural period of ship is to be changed widely, the natural period of ART also has to be changed widely. In case of the existing U-tube type ART with a single layer duct, the tank natural period can be changed in a relatively narrow range. This paper suggests a new U-tube type ART system using a double layer duct to enable wide change of ART natural period. Through the roll experiments performed in regular beam waves for a box-type model ship, it is shown that the double layer duct ART has about two times wider period range and a better reducing effect of roll magnitude than the single layer duct ART.

OLED(organic light emitting diode)는 액정디스플레이를 대체할 차세대 평판디스플레이로 많은 주목을 받고 있다. 현재 많이 사용되고 있는 OLED의 기판재료는 Glass기판이지만 차세대 Flexible한 display에서의 적용을 위해서는 가볍고 유연한 plastic을 기판 재료로 사용 할 것으로 보인다. 하지만 plastic이 기판재료로 된 OLED의 가장 큰 단점중의 하나가 수분과 산소에 민감하여 열화를 초래한다는 것이다. 이런 수분침투와 열화 과정으로 인해 OLED의 발광효과가 약해져 OLED의 수명과 직접적으로 연결된다. 하여 외부에서 OLED내부로 유입되는 산소, 수분으로 부터 발광재료와 전극의 산화를 방지하며 외부의 충격으로부터 소자를 보호하기 위한 봉지기술은 반드시 필요하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, flexible한 OLED에 적용되는 금속 코팅한 막의 적층구조 및 기판의 노출온도에 따른 금속 코팅막의 수분침투 특성에 대해 MOCON의 weight gain test (WGT)를 통해 barrier layer에 대해 평가하고 이에 대한 mechanism을 확립하는데 그 목적이 있다. 금속을 코팅한 막은 OLED의 cathode와 anode 재료로 많이 사용되는 Al과 ITO를 sputter장비를 이용해 single layer와 double-layer의 두 가지 구조로 PET기판에 증착하였다. 증착한 Al막의 두께는 각각 50 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 400 nm 등 4가지로 하였다. double-layer의 경우에는 총 두께를 절반씩 기판의 양쪽에 증착하였다. 적층구조에 따른 수분침투 특성 평가 결과로 보면 같은 두께일 때 double-layer는 single layer에 비해서 모든 시편에서 수분의 투습율이 낮음으로써 더 좋은 수분침투의 barrier 특성을 나타내었다. 특히 100 nm이상인 경우 투습율은 예상한 값보다 50%이상 낮게 나타났다.

This paper describes the crystallinity, growth rate, and surface morphology of single crystalline 3C-SiC (cubic silicon carbide) thin films grown with several carbonization conditions such as temperature, $C_3H_8$ flow rate, time. In case of carbonization, an increase in the carbonization temperature caused a increase in the size and numbers of unsealed void (big black spot) which decrease the crystallinity. In addition, optimal $C_3H_8$ flow rate made carbonization layer form well and prevented the formation of voids. Also, after a period of time, the growth of carbonization layer did not increase no more. The single crystalline 3C-SiC thin films on optimal carbonized Si substrate showed an improvement on the crystallinity, the growth rate, the roughness, and the carrier concentration.

Since the surface roughness of adherends affects much the strength of adhesivelybonded joints, the effect of surface roughness on the fatigue life of adhesively bonded tubular single lap joints was investigated analytically and experimentally by fatigue torsion test. The stiffness of the interfacial layer between adherends and adhesive was modeled as a normal statistical distribution function of surface roughness of adherends. From the investigation, it was found that the optimum surface roughness of adherends for the fatigue strength of tubular single lap joints was dependent on bondthickness and applied load.

When a dielectric layer, in-cell retarder (ICR) is formed between electrode and LC layer to get a single gap transflective fringe-field switching (FFS) display, the operating voltage ($V_{op}$) is highly increased due to the thickness of dielectric material. But, we also knew the phenomenon that the increasing rate of Vop is different whether the 1st common electrode was composed of plate type or slit type. In this paper, the common electrode in transmissive part was composed of slit type which had less steepness effect of the Vop and in reflective part was composed of plate type. The rubbing angle of reflective part can be adjusted properly to match the voltage dependent transmittance and reflectance.

Yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ)-based micro tubular SOFC single cells were fabricated by electrophoretic deposition (EPD) process. Stable slurries for the EPD process were prepared by adding phosphate ester (PE) as a dispersant in order to control the pH, conductivity, and zeta-potential. NiO-YSZ anode support, NiO-YSZ anode functional layer (AFL), and YSZ electrolyte were consecutively deposited on a graphite rod using the EPD process; materials were then co-sintered at $1400^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. The thickness of the deposited layer increased with increasing of the applied voltage and the deposition time. A YSZ-based micro tubular single cell fabricated by the EPD process exhibited a maximum power density of $0.3W/cm^2$ at $750^{\circ}C$.

Blue-white reflective cholesteric liquid crystal display was prepared by a unique method of single liquid crystal layer, the combination of yellow color liquid crystal and blue color backplane. The dopant and host combination of chlolesteric liquid crystal affects the color spectrum. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of blue and white are (0.10, 0.16) and (0.29, 0.30), respectively. The relatively low driving voltages of 32 V for blue-white display are obtained.
