This study has been investigated on the milling of Aluminium Distearate (ADS) powder and characteristics of the ADS-doped UO2 pellets. As-received ADS powder of the agglomerated particles has not shown any milling effect because of heat generated during planetary milling. But the use of coolant to effectively remove heat generated during milling has been found an effective way in breaking up the agglomerates of ADS powder. The green density of the UO2 pellet decreases with the amount of ADS powder doped. Therefore, in order to get the sintered density of 95% pellet decreases with the amount of ADS powder doped. Therefore, in order to get the sintered density of 95% theoretical density, the 200 ppm ADS-doped UO2 pellet has to be pressed under higher compacting pressure of 3500~4000 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ compared with the ADS-undoped UO2 pellet pressed under around 3000 kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$. The ADS-dpoed UO2 pellet with even relatively low sintered density of 10.27 g/㎤ exhibits open porosity of 1% while open porosity of the ADS-undoped UO2 pellet is reduced to around 1% only after its sintered density increases to 10.43g/㎤. It is, therefore, concluded that doping of ADS powder significantly contributes to the decrease in open porosity of the UO2 pellet. The dilatometry of the ADS doped UO2 pellet shows the sintering rate curve with the bimodal mode, which could be attributed to a phase reaction between UO2 and ADS. The X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that there occurs not any new phase formed but the shift of the peaks. It would be expected that a phase reaction resulting in solid solution would happen in the temperature range of 130$0^{\circ}C$ to 150$0^{\circ}C$ between UO2 and ADS.

완전 세라믹 치관 재료로 응용할 수 있는 유리가 침투한 알루미나 복합체를 제조하였다. SiO$_2$-B$_2$O$_3$-Al$_2$O$_3$-CaO-La$_2$O$_3$계 유리에서 $Al_2$O$_3$의 함량을 변화시키며 다양한 조성의 유리를 만들고 이들 유리를 저온 소결한 다공성 알루미나에 침투시켰다. 그리고 이때 A1$_2$O$_3$의 함량변화가 유리의 침투 특성과 얻어진 복합체의 강도에 미치는 영향에 대하여 연구하였다. 유리 조성에서 A1$_2$O$_3$의 양을 증가시킬수록 알루미나 소결체의 부식 현상이 현저히 줄었으며 이에 따라 복합체의 강도가 증가하였다. 알루미나 소견체에는 거대기공이 존재하고 있어 복합체의 강도 저하에 영향을 미쳤는데 알루미나의 소결 온도를 130$0^{\circ}C$까지 증가시켜 이를 감소시켰다. 진공 분위기에서 알루미나 소결체에 유리를 침투시켰을 때 최고 453$\pm$31 MPa의 굽힘 강도 값을 얻을 수 있었다.

Porous ceramics are promising materials for a number of functional and structural applications that include thermal insulation, filters, bio-scaffolds for tissue engineering, and preforms for composite fabrication. These applications take advantage of the special characteristics of porous ceramics, such as low thermal mass, low thermal conductivity, high surface area, controlled permeability, and low density. In this review, we emphasize the direct foaming method, a simple and versatile approach that allows the fabrication of porous ceramics with tailored microstructure, along with distinctive properties. The wet foam stability is achieved under the controlled addition of amphiphiles to the colloidal suspension, which induce in situ hydrophobization, allowing the wet foam to resist coarsening and Ostwald ripening upon drying and sintering. Different components, like contact angle, adsorption free energy, air content, bubble size, and Laplace pressure, play vital roles in the stabilization of the particle stabilized wet foam to the porous ceramics. The mechanical behavior of the load-displacements curves of sintered samples was investigated using Herzian indentations testes. From the collected results, we found that microporous structures with pore sizes from 30 ㎛ to 570 ㎛ and the porosity within the range from 70% to 85%.

Generally, a thermistor made by sintering a metal oxide is widely used to measure the ambient temperature. This thermistor is widely used not only for industrial use but also for medical use because of its excellent sensitivity, durability, temperature change characteristics and low cost. In particular, the normal body temperature is 36.9 degrees relative to the armpit temperature, and it is most closely related to the circulating blood flow. Previous studies have shown that body temperature changes during biomechanical changes and body temperature changes by anomalous signs or illnesses. Therefore, in this study, we propose a Lock-In-Amp design to detect minute temperature changes of clothing and thermistor wired by a preacher as a method to regularly measure body temperature in daily life. Especially, it is designed to measure the minute resistance change of the thermistor according to body temperature change even in a low-cost microprocessor environment by using a micro-processor-based Lock-In-Amp, and a jacquard and the thermistor is arranged so as to be close to the side, so that the reference body temperature can be easily measured. The temperature was measured and stored in real time using short-range wireless communication for non - restraint temperature monitoring. A baby vest was made to verify its performance through temperature experiments for infants. The measurement of infant body temperature through the existing skin sensor or thermometer has limitations in monitoring infant body temperature for a long time without restriction. However, it can be overcome by using the embroidery fabric based micro temperature monitoring wireless monitoring device proposed in this study.

In this study, a transient liquid phase sintering (TLPS) process of Ag pastes mixed with a fusible metal alloy of Bi58Sn42 with the melting temperature of $138^{\circ}C$, was examined. After screen printing of the Ag pastes with and without Bi58Sn42 powders on polyimide (PI) substrates, the electrodes were heat-treated at different temperatures in the range between 150 and $300^{\circ}C$ for 60 min in air. Comparing the electrical conductivity of the Ag pastes with and without Bi58Sn42 alloy powder after the heat treatment, it was manifested that the low melting temperature alloy definitely played a major role in an increased conductivity when it is added into the Ag pastes by providing more electrical conduction paths between Ag particles. This can be explained by the fact that capillary force of the melts of Bi58Sn42 can contribute to the rearrangement of the Ag particles during the heat-treatment inducing better connectivity between the Ag particles.

Screen printing is commonly used to form the front/back electrodes in silicon solar cell. But it has caused high resistance and low aspect ratio, resulting in decreased conversion efficiency in solar cell. Recently the plating method has been combined with screen-printed c-Si solar cell to reduce the resistance and improve the aspect ratio. In this paper, we investigated the effect of light induced silver plating with screen-printed c-Si solar cells and compared their electrical properties. All wafers were textured, doped, and coated with anti-reflection layer. The metallization process was carried out with screen-printing, followed by co-fired. Then we performed light induced Ag plating by changing the plating time in the range of 20 sec~5min with/without external light. For comparison, we measured the light I-V characteristics and electrode width by optical microscope. During plating, silver ions fill the porous structure established in rapid silver particle sintering during co-firing step, which results in resistance decrease and efficiency improvement. The plating rate was increased in presence of light lamp, resulting in widening the electrode with and reducing the short-circuit current by shadowing loss. With the optimized plating condition, the conversion efficiency of solar cells was increased by 0.4% due to decreased series resistance. Finally we obtained the short-circuit current of 8.66 A, open-circuit voltage of 0.632 V, fill factor of 78.2%, and efficiency of 17.8% on a silicon solar cell.

Pr\ulcornerO\ulcorner-based ZnO varistors were fabricated in the range of $Y_2$O$_3$additive content from 0.5 to 4.0mol%, and its microstructure and electrical properties were investigated. Yttrium was distributed nearly in the grain boundaries and the cluster phase formed at nodal point but more in cluster phase. The average grain size was decreased markedly from 34.9 to 8.6${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ with increasing $Y_2$O$_3$additive content. It is believed that the decrease of grain size is attributed to the formation of cluster phase and the weakening of driving force for liquid sintering. As a result, $Y_2$O$_3$was acted as the inhibitor of the grain growth. With increasing $Y_2$O$_3$additive content, the varistor voltage, the activation energy, and the nonlinear exponent increased whereas the leakage current decreased, especially 4.0mol% $Y_2$O$_3$-added varistor exhibited very good I-V characteristics; nonlinear exponent 87.42 and leakage current 46.77nA. On the other hand, as $Y_2$O$_3$additive content increases, the varistor showed tendency of the salient decrease for donor concentration and the increase for barrier height. Conclusively, it is estimated that ZnO:Pr varistor compositions added more than 2.0mol% $Y_2$O$_3$are to be used to fabricate useful varistors.

압전 액츄에이터 및 초음파진동자의 응용범위가 넒어짐에 따라 변위량, 응력 등을 개선시키기 위해 전기기계결합계수 kp 및 압전 d상수가 종전보다 큰 재료가 요구되고 있으며, 초음파진동자나 압전 모터와 같이 마찰에 의한 열손실이 많이 발생하는 액츄에이터에 적용할 큰 기계적품질계수롤 가지는 저손실 압전 액츄에이터 및 초음파진동자용 재료가 필요한 실정이다. PZT계 세라믹스는 높은 유전상수와 압전특성으로 전자세라믹스분야에서 가장 널리 사용되어지고 있지만, $1200^{\circ}C$이상의 높은 소결온도 때문에 $1000^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 급격히 휘발되는 PbO로 인한 환경오염과 기본조성의 변화로 인한 압전특성의 저하가 문제시 되고 있다. $Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$는 약 $-120^{\circ}C$정도의 큐리온도룰 가지는 강유전체로 Pb(Zr, Ti)$O_3$계 세라믹스에 치환 시 유전상수와 전기기계결합계수를 개선시키는 대표적인 성분이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 저온소결 저손실의 적층형 압전 액츄에이터를 개발하기 위해 PMS-PMN-PZT계 세라믹스에 $Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ 세라믹스를 치환하고 $Li_2CO_3$와 $Na_2CO_3$ ZnO를 소결조재로 사용하여 저온소결 하였으며 PNN 치환량에 따른 결과를 관찰 하였다.
