The electrophoretic deposition(EPD) technique with a wide range of novel applications in the processing of advanced ceramic materials and coatings, has recently gained increasing interest both in academic and industrial sector not only because of the high versatility of its use with different materials and their combinations but also because of its cost-effectiveness requiring simple apparatus. Compared to other advanced shaping techniques, the EPD process is very versatile since it can be modified easily for a specific application. For example, deposition can be made on flat, cylinderical or any other shaped substrate with only minor charge in electrode design and positioning[1]. The synthesis of the nano-sized Ce0.2Sm0.8O1.9(SDC)particles prepared by aurea based low temperature hydrothermal process was investigated in this study[2].When we made the SDC nanoparticles, changed the time of synthesis of the SDC. The SDC nanoparticles were characterized with field-emission scanning electron microscope(FESEM), energy dispersive X-ray analysis(EDX), and X-ray diffraction(XRD). And also we researched the results of our investigation on electrophoretic deposition(EPD) of the SDC particles from its suspension in acetone solution onto a non-conducting NiO-SDC substrate. In principle, it is possible to carry out electrophoretic deposition on non-conducting substrates. In this case, the EPD of SDC particles on a NiO-SDC substrate was made possible through the use of a adequately porous substrate. The continuous pores in the substrates, when saturated with the solvent, helped in establishing a "conductive path" between the electrode and the particles in suspension[3-4]. Deposition rate was found to increase its increasing deposition time and voltage. After annealing the samples $1400^{\circ}C$, we observed that deposited substrate.

Recently, graphene and graphene-based materials such as graphene oxide (GO) or reduced graphene oxide (R-GO) draws a great attention for electronic devices due to their structures of one atomic layer of carbon hexagon that have excellent mechanical, electrical, thermal, optical properties and very high specific surface area that can be high potential for chemical functionalization. R-GO is a promising candidate because it can be prepared with low-cost from solution process by chemical oxidation and exfoliation using strong acids and oxidants to produce graphene oxide (GO) and its subsequent reduction. R-GO has been used as semiconductor or conductor materials as well as sensing layer for bio-molecules or ions. In this work, reduced graphene oxide field-effect transistor (R-GO FET) has been fabricated with ITO extended gate structure that has sensing area on ITO extended gate part. R-GO FET device was encapsulated by tetratetracontane (TTC) layer using thermal evaporation. A thermal annealing process was carried out at $140^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours in the same thermal vacuum chamber to remove defects in R-GO film before deposition of TTC at $50^{\circ}C$ with thickness of 200 nm. As a result of this process, R-GO FET device has a very high stability and durability for months to serve as a transducer for sensing applications.

Mechanical alloying is an effective process to finely distribute inert dispersoids in an Al-TM(TM is a transition metal) system. It has been considered that high melting point aluminides are formed by precipitation from supersaturated Al(Ti) powder. This analysis is based on the fact that much higher content of TM than the solubioity can be dissolved in alpha aluminum during the high energy ball milling. Thus, decomposition behavior of Ti in the Al(Ti) was considered very important. But it is confirmed that the higher portion of Ti than Al(Ti) solid solution is existed as nano-sized Ti particles in the MA powders by high energy ball nilling from the XRD spectrum and TEM analysis in this study. Therefore, the role of undissolved TM particles affect the formation of aluminides should be suitably considered. In this study, we present experimental observation on the formation of $Al_3Ti$ fron mechanical alloyed Al-Ti alloys in the hyperperitectic region. This study showed that, in the mechanically alloyed Al-20wt%Ti specimen, intermediate phase of cubic $Al_3Ti$ and tetragonal $Al_{24}Ti_8$ formed at $300{\sim}400^{\circ}C$ and $400{\sim}500^{\circ}C$, respectively, before the MA state reaches to equilibrium at higher temperatures. The formation behavior of $Ll_2-Al_3Ti$ is interpreted by interdiffusion of Al and Ti in solid state based on the fact that large amount of nano-sized Ti particles exist in the milled powder. Present analysis indicated undissolved Ti particles of nanosize should have played an important role initiation the formation of $Al_3Ti$ phase during annealing.

Structural studies have been performed on precipitation hardening and microstructural variations found in Ti-Al-Cr ternary $L1_0$- and $L1_2$-phase alloys using transmission electron microscopy. Both the $L1_0$ and $L1_2$ phase alloys harden by aging at 973 K after solution annealing at higher temperatures. The amount of age hardening of the $L1_2$ phase alloy is larger than that of the $L1_0$ phase alloy. The phase separation between $L1_0$ and $L1_2$ phase have not been observed by aging at 973 K. But $Al_2Ti$ was formed in each matrix alloy during aging. The crystal structure of the $Al_2Ti$ phase is a $Ga_2Zr$ type in the $L1_0$ and a $Ga_2Hf$ type in the $L1_2$ phase, respectively. At the beginning of aging the fine coherent cuboidal $Al_2Ti$-phase are formed in the $L1_0$ phase. By further aging, two variants of $Al_2Ti$ precipitates grow along the two {110} habit planes. On the other hand, in the $L1_2$ phase, the $Al_2Ti$ phase forms on the {100} planes of the $L1_2$ matrix lattice. After prolonged aging the precipitates are rearranged along a preferential direction of the matrix lattice and form a domain consisting of only one variant. It is suggested that the precipitation of $Al_2Ti$ in each matrix alloy occurs to form a morphology which efficiently relaxes the elastic strain between precipitate and matrix lattices.

Photoelectrochemical cells have been used in photolysis of water to generate hydrogen as a clean energy source. A high efficiency electrode for photoelectrochemical cell systems was realized using a ZnO hierarchical nanostructure. A ZnO nanofiber mat structure was fabricated by electrospinning of Zn solution on the substrate, followed by oxidation; on this substrate, hydrothermal synthesis of ZnO nanorods on the ZnO nanofibers was carried out to form a ZnO hierarchical structure. The thickness of the nanofiber mat and the thermal annealing temperature were determined as the parameters for optimization. The morphology of the structures was examined by field-emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The performance of the ZnO nanofiber mat and the potential of the ZnO hierarchical structures as photoelectrochemical cell electrodes were evaluated by measurement of the photoelectron conversion efficiencies under UV light. The highest photoconversion efficiency observed was 63 % with a ZnO hierarchical structure annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ in air. The morphology and the crystalline quality of the electrode materials greatly influenced the electrode performance. Therefore, the combination of the two fabrication methods, electrospinning and hydrothermal synthesis, was successfully applied to fabricate a high performance photoelectrochemical cell electrode.

최근 AMOLED 구동이 가능한 소자에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행중이다. AMOLED구동 가능소자는 LTPS TFT, a-Si TFT, OTFT, Oxide TFT가 있으며 그 중에서 현재 대부분 LTPS TFT를 사용하고 있다. LTPS TFT는 높은 전자 이동도와 안정성을 가지고 있기 때문에 현재 각광 받는 AMOLED에 잘 맞는다. 하지만 LTPS TFT는 고비용, 250$^{\circ}C$ 이상의 공정온도, Substrate가 Glass, Metal로 제한 된다는 문제점이 있으며, 균일성이 낮고 현재 대면적 기술이 부족한 상태이다. 해결방안으로 AMOLED를 타겟으로 하는 Oxide TFT 기술이 떠오르고 있다. Oxide TFT는 이동도가 높고 저온공정이 가능하며 Substrate로 Plastic 기판을 사용할 수가 있어 차후에 Flexible 소자로서의 적용이 가능하다. 또한 기존의 진공장비 사용대신 용액공정이 가능하여 장비사용시간 및 절차를 단축시킬 수 있어 비용적인 유리함을 가지고 있다. Oxide TFT는 단결정 산화물과 다결정 복합 산화물 두 가지 범주를 가지고 있다. Oxide TFT의 재료물질은 ZnO, ZTO, IZO, SnO2, Ga2O3, IGO, In2O3, ITO, InGaO3(ZnO)5, a-IGZO이 있다. 본 연구에서는 산화물질 중 하나인 ZTO를 이용하여 TFT 소자를 제작하였다. 산화물 특성상 열처리 온도에 따라 형성되는 결정의 정도가 다르기 때문에 온도 및 시간 변수에 따른 ZTO의 특성변화에 초점을 맞추어 연구함으로서 최적화된 조건을 찾고자 실험을 진행하였다. 실험을 위한 기판으로 n-type wafer을 사용하였다. PE-CVD 장비를 이용하여 SiNx를 120 nm 증착하고, ZTO 용액을 spin-coating을 이용하여 channel layer을 형성하였다. 균일하게 형성된 ZTO의 결정을 위하여 200$^{\circ}C$, 300$^{\circ}C$, 400$^{\circ}C$, 500$^{\circ}C$에서 1시간, 3시간, 6시간, 10시간의 온도 및 시간 변수를 두어 공기 중에서 열처리 하였다. ZTO는 약 30 nm 두께로 형성되었다. Thermal evaporator를 이용하여 Source, Drain의 알루미늄 전극을 형성하고, wafer 뒷면에는 Silver paste를 이용하여 Gate전극을 만들었다. 제작된 소자를 dark room temperature에서 측정하였다.

Providing various levels of difficulty of game play is one of important considerations in game development. In this paper, we propose a method for obtaining the challenges that will be placed on the track of an one-player car driving game. Herein challenges denote obstacles on the track, and the level of difficulty is represented by an estimated time needed for driving one lap of the track. In the proposed method, the problem for finding challenge placement is modeled as an IP(Integer Programming) one, and then LP relaxation and Simultaneous Annealing are employed to find a solution. To the experiment with the proposed method, we can obtain challenge placements to approximately meet given target driving times. Also, after practically driving on the track where those obtained challenges are being placed, it is seen that the average driving times approximate the target driving times of those challenge placements. Our method can allow game play with various levels of difficulty so that the users' interest and the level of immerse are expected to be raised.

Since the power consumption of data centers is large and computer serves take a large portion of it, there have been much research on the power saving of servers in various ways recently. Among the units of severs CPU is one of major power consuming units. In this paper, a method of client-server assignment for minimizing the CPU power consumption of servers in a game server cluster is proposed. We model the client-server assignment problem as an optimization problem, and find a solution to the problem using a simulated annealing-based technique. One of major features of our method is to select a proper operating frequency according to the amount of load on a server. The selection of a lower frequency in case of low load will result in reducing power consumption. To our survey, little research on client-server assignment in consideration of power consumption has been carried out.

Recently a fuel oil of the diesel engine of the marine ship is being changed with heavy oil of low quality as the oil price is higher more and more. Therefore the wear and corrosion in all parts of the engine such as cylinder liner, piston crown, spindle and seat ring of exhaust valves are predominantly increased. In particular the degree of wear and corrosion of piston crown is more seriously compared to the other parts of the engine due to operating in severe environment such as the high temperature of exhaust gas and repeating impact. Thus the repair weldment of the piston crown is a unique method to prolong the its life in a economical point of view. In this case, filler metals having a high corrosion and wear resistance such as stellite 6, Inconel 625 and Inconel 718 are mainly being used for repair welding. However it has been often happened that piston crown on the ship,s job site is being actually inevitably welded with mild filler metals. Therefore in this study, filler metals such as E4301, E4313 and E4316 were welded at SS401 steel as the base metal, and corrosion property of their weld metals in the case of post weld heat treatment or not was investigated with some electrochemical methods such as measurement of corrosion potential, cathodic and anodic polarization curves, cyclic voltammogram and polarization resistance etc. in 0.1% $H_2SO_4$ solution. Corrosion resistance of the weld metal of E4301 was better than the other weld metals in the case of no heat treatment, however, its resistance was considerably decreased with post weld heat treatment(annealing:$625^{\circ}C$, 2 hr) compared to other weld metals. The weld metals of E4313 and E4316 showed a relatively good corrosion resistance by post weld heat treatment.
