Al₂O₃ 다공체는 필터 및 촉매 담체 등으로 활용되며 그 기능성과 내구성을 확보하기 위해서는 다공성 구조의 기계적 강도가 중요하다. 소결 중 치밀화 및 입자성장을 유리하게 제어하는 것이 기계적 강도 향상에 필수적이며, 본 연구에서는 그 일환으로 La을 첨가하여 동결주조로 성형된 Al₂O₃ 다공체의 입자성장 양상을 분석하였다. 즉, 250 ppm의 La을 첨가한 계에서 1400℃에서 1600℃에 이르는 온도 범위 내에서 소결 시간 및 온도에 대한 평균입도 변화를 관찰하여 G_tⁿ-G₀ⁿ = kt 관계로부터 exponent(n 값)은 3으로, k = k₀exp(-E_a/RT)로부터 입자성장에 대한 활성화 에너지(E_a)는 489.09 kJ/mol로 각각 계산되었다. 이러한 결과는 입자성장에 대한 La의 첨가 효과를 나타내며, La이 Al₂O₃의 입계 이동속도를 늦춰 입자성장의 억제에 효과가 있음을 방증하므로 기계적 강도에 이롭다. 한편, 향후 원료 분말에 함께 포함되어 있는 미량의 불순물 작용을 관찰하면 La의 기여를 명확히 구분할 수 있으며, 이러한 접근은 향후 다공성 Al₂O₃에서 입자성장을 제어하는데 사용될 수 있는 첨가제를 선택하는 데 유용하게 사용될 수 있다.

In this paper, we investigated current (I)- and voltage (V)-sweeping properties in a double-stack structure, Ge₂Sb₂Te₅/Ti/W-doped Ge₈Sb₂Te₁₁, a candidate medium for applications to multilevel phase-change memory. 200-nm-thick and W-doped Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ and W-doped Ge₈Sb₂Te₁₁ films were deposited on p-type Si(100) substrate using magnetron sputtering system, and the sheet resistance was measured using 4 point-probe method. The sheet resistance of amorphous-phase W-doped Ge₈Sb₂Te₁₁ film was about 1 order larger than that of Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ film. The I- and V-sweeping properties were measured using sourcemeter, pulse generator, and digital multimeter. The speed of amorphous-to-multilevel crystallization was evaluated from a graph of resistance vs. pulse duration (t) at a fixed applied voltage (12 V). All the double-stack cells exhibited a two-step phase change process with the multilevel memory states of high-middle-low resistance (HR-MR-LR). In particular, the stable MR state is required to guarantee the reliability of the multilevel phase-change memory. For the Ge₂Sb₂Te₅ (150 nm)/Ti (20 nm)/W-Ge₈Sb₂Te₁₁ (50 nm), the phase transformations of HR→MR and MR→LR were observed at t<30ns and t<65ns, respectively. We believe that a high speed and stable multilevel phase-change memory can be optimized by the double-stack structure of proper Ge-Sb-Te films separated by a barrier metal (Ti).

NO, CO 및 CH₄의 동시 산화를 위한 4 종의 Mn-M/Al₂O₃ (M = Cu, Fe, Co, Ce) 촉매를 제조하여 산화 활성을 비교하고, 동시 산화활성이 가장 높은 Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매에 대해 XRD, Raman, XPS, O₂-TPD 분석을 수행하였다. XRD 분석 결과, Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매에서는 담지된 Mn과 Cu는 복합산화물로 존재하였다. Raman 및 XPS 분석을 통해 Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매는 Mn-O-Cu 결합의 형성 과정에서 Mn 이온과 Cu 이온 간의 전자 수수가 일어남을 알 수 있었다. XPS O 1s 및 O₂-TPD 분석을 통해 Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매는 Mn/Al₂O₃ 촉매에 비해 이동성이 우수한 흡착산소 종이 증가했음을 알 수 있었다. Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매의 높은 동시 산화 활성은 이러한 결과에 기인한다고 판단된다. Mn-Cu/Al₂O₃ 촉매 상에서 NO는 CO와 CH₄ 산화를 촉진하지만, NO 산화는 억제되었다. 이는 NO로부터 산화된 NO₂가 CO 및 CH₄의 산화제로 사용되었기 때문이라고 추측된다. CO와 CH₄의 산화 반응은 경쟁하지만 촉매 활성 온도가 다르기 때문에 그 효과가 두드러지지 않았다.

라디오주파수 분말 스퍼터링 방법으로 sapphire (0001) 기판 위에 Sn을 함유한 β-Ga₂O₃(β-Ga₂O₃ : Sn) 나노와이어를 증착하였다. 후열처리 공정의 가스 분위기가 나노와이어 형상의 변화에 미치는 영향을 연구하였다. 800℃에서 진공 중 열처리 과정에서, as-grown 나노와이어는 다공성 구조로 전이하였다. 비화학양론 Ga₂O_3-x는 화학양론 Ga₂O₃로 바뀌고, Sn원자는 응집하여 나노클러스터를 형성한다. Sn 나노클러스터는 증발하여 Sn 원자의 함량은 1.31에서 0.27 at%로 감소하였다. Sn원자의 증발로 인하여 나노와이어 표면에 다수의 기공이 형성되고, 이는 β-Ga₂O₃ : Sn 나노와이어의 체적대비 표면적 비율을 증가시킨다.

The phase evolution, microstructure, and microwave dielectric properties of (Ba_1-xNa_x)(Mg_0.5-2xY_2xW_0.5-xTa_x)O₃ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.05) ceramics were investigated. All compositions exhibited a 1:1 ordered perovskite structure. As the value of x increased, the dielectric constant (ε_r) exhibited a tendency to increase slightly. The quality factor reached the maximum value at x = 0.01. The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ_f) increased from -19.32 ppm/℃ to -5.64 ppm/℃ in the positive direction as x increased. The dielectric constant (ε_r), quality factor (Q × f₀), and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ_f) of the composition x = 0.05, i.e., (Ba_0.95Na_0.05)(Mg_0.4Y_0.1W_0.45Ta_0.05)O₃ were 19.9, 128,553 GHz, and -5.6 ppm/℃, respectively.

Let I be an ideal of Noetherian local ring (R, m) and M an artinian R-module. In this paper, we study colocalization of local homology modules. In fact we give Colocal-global Principle for the artinianness and minimaxness of local homology modules, which is a dual case of Local-global Principle for the finiteness of local cohomology modules. We define the representation dimension r^I (M) of M and the artinianness dimension a^I (M) of M relative to I by r^I (M) = inf{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not representable}, and a^I (M) = inf{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not artinian} and we will prove that i) a^I (M) = r^I (M) = inf{r^IR_𝖕 (_𝖕M) : 𝖕 ∈ Spec(R)} ≥ inf{a^IR_𝖕 (_𝖕M) : 𝖕 ∈ Spec(R)}, ii) inf{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not minimax} = inf{r^IR_𝖕 (_𝖕M) : 𝖕 ∈ Spec(R) ∖ {𝔪}}. Also, we define the upper representation dimension R^I (M) of M relative to I by R^I (M) = sup{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not representable}, and we will show that i) sup{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) ≠ 0} = sup{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not artinian} = sup{R^IR_𝖕 (_𝖕M) : 𝖕 ∈ Spec(R)}, ii) sup{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not finitely generated} = sup{i ∈ ℕ₀ : H^I_i (M) is not minimax} = sup{R^IR_𝖕 (_𝖕M) : 𝖕 ∈ Spec(R) ∖ {𝔪}}.

Ionic conduction mechanism of Mg-Al layered double hydroxides (LDHs) intercalated with CO₃^2- (Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH) was studied. The electromotive force for the water vapor concentration cell using Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH as electrolyte showed water vapor partial pressure dependence and obeyed the Nernst equation, indicating that the hydroxide ion transport number of Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH is almost unity. The ionic conductivity of Mg(OH)₂, MgCO₃ and Al₂(CO₃)₃ was also examined. Only Al₂(CO₃)₃ showed high hydroxide ion conductivity of the order of 10^-4 S cm^-1 under 80% relative humidity, suggesting that Al₂(CO₃)₃ is an ion conducting material and related to the generation of carrier by interaction with water. To discuss the ionic conduction mechanism, Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH having deuterium water as interlayer water (Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH(D₂O)) was prepared. After the adsorbed water molecules on the surface of Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH(D₂O) were removed by drying, DC polarization test for dried Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH(D₂O) was examined. The absorbance attributed to O-D-stretching band for Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH(D₂O) powder at around the positively charged electrode is larger than that before polarization, indicating that the interlayer in Mg-Al CO₃^2- LDH is a hydroxide ion conduction channel.

본 논문에서는 ferroelectric(HfO₂)구조가 적용된 3D NAND flash memory의 parameter에 따른 lateral charge migration의 retention과 V_th를 분석하였다. P_s가 클수록 Program 시 ferroelectric에서 가능한 최대 polarization이 크기 때문에 초기 V_th는 P_s 25µC/cm² 보다 P_s 70µC/cm²에서 약 1.04V차이로 커진다. 또한 Program 이후 trap된 전자는 시간이 지남에 따라서 lateral charge migration이 발생한다. Program 이후 gate에 전압을 가하지 않고 ferroelectric은 polarization을 유지하기 때문에 P_s와 크게 관계없이 P_r이 클수록 polarization이 커지고 lateral charge migration에 의한 ∆V_th는 P_r 5µC/cm² 보다 P_r 50µC/cm²에서 약 1.54V차이로 작아진다.

The major drawback of zirconia-based materials, in view of their applications as targets for minor actinide transmutation, is their poor thermal conductivity. The addition of MgO, which has high thermal conductivity, to zirconia-based materials is expected to improve their thermal conductivity. On these grounds, the present study aims at phase characterization and thermophysical property evaluation of neodymium-substituted zirconia (Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9; using Nd₂O₃ as a surrogate for Am₂O₃) and its composites with MgO. The composite was prepared by a solid-state reaction of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9 (synthesized by gel combustion) and commercial MgO powders at 1773 K. Phase characterization was carried out by X-ray diffraction and the microstructural investigation was performed using a scanning electron microscope equipped with energy dispersive spectroscopy. The linear thermal expansion coefficient of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9 increases upon composite formation with MgO, which is attributed to a higher thermal expansivity of MgO. Similarly, specific heat also increases with the addition of MgO to Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9. Thermal conductivity was calculated from measured thermal diffusivity, temperature-dependent density and specific heat values. Thermal conductivity of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9-MgO (50 wt%) composite is more than that of typical UO₂ fuel, supporting the potential of Zr_0.8Nd_0.2O_1.9-MgO composites as target materials for minor actinides transmutation.

Pure ZnFe₂O₄ and Fe₂O₃-ZnFe₂O₄ hetero-composite spheres were prepared by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis of a solution containing Zn- and Fe-nitrates. Additionally, the sensing characteristics of these spheres in the presence of 5 ppm ethanol, benzene, p-xylene, toluene, and CO (within the temperature range of 275-350 ℃) were investigated. The Fe₂O₃-ZnFe₂O₄ hetero-composite sensor with a cation ratio of [Zn]:[Fe]=1:3 exhibited a high response (resistance ratio = 140.2) and selectivity (response to p-xylene/response to ethanol = 3.4) to 5 ppm p-xylene at 300 ℃, whereas the pure ZnFe₂O₄ sensor showed a comparatively lower gas response and selectivity. The reasons for the superior response and selectivity to p-xylene in Fe₂O₃-ZnFe₂O₄ hetero-composite sensor were discussed in relation to the electronic sensitization due to charge transfer at Fe₂O₃-ZnFe₂O₄ interface and Fe₂O₃-induced catalytic promotion of gas sensing reaction. The sensor can be used to monitor harmful volatile organic compounds and indoor air pollutants.
