Self-organized nanostructures of dots, holes or ripples produced by energetic ion bombardment have been reported in a wide variety of substrates. Ion bombardment on an alloy or compound also draws much attention because it can induce a surface composition modulation with a topographical surface structure evolution. V. B. Shenoy et al. further suggested that, in the case of alloy surfaces, the differences in the sputtering yields and surface diffusivities of the alloy components will lead to a lateral surface composition modulation [1]. In the present work, the classical molecular dynamics simulation of Ar bombardment on metallic alloys at room temperature revealed that this bombardment induces a surface composition modulation in layer-by-layer mode. In both the $Co_{0.5}Cu_{0.5}$ alloy and the CoAl B2 phase, the element of higher-sputtering yield is accumulated on the top surface layer, whereas it is depleted in lower layers. A kinetic model considering both the rearrangement and the sputtering of the substrate atoms agrees with the puzzling simulation results, which revealed that the rearrangement of the substrate atoms plays a significant role in the observed composition modulation.

The surface segragation of NiZr, CuZr alloy has been studied wi th X-ray Imotoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), Auger electron spectroscopy(AES) and low energy ion scattering(LEIS). The composition of outmost atomic layer has been determinded by the use of LEIS at several incident energies using Ar+ ion. In the LEIS analysis, the effect of charge exchange has been estimated by a novel measurment of the charge exchange parameters while simul taneous determining the relative concentrations of Ni and Zr and the complementary information obtained will be described. The composition of the clean annealed surface, measured with AES only, will be contrasted wi th the surface concentration of the preferentially sputtered surface. The experimental results has been clearly demonstrated that when the NiZr ruld CuZr alloys are exposed to continuous Ar+ ion bombardment the outermost atomic layer is Zr rich due to preferential sputtering of Ni atoms. where Ni is preferentially sputtered, but the difference in sputtering yields is not sufficient to explain the observed composition. Therefore, it is necessary to consider other processes such as Radiation Induced Segregation(RIS). The surface composition of the heated sample surface predicts that Zr should surface segregate which futher supports the view that part of the Zr enrichment is due to RIS.to RIS.

The composition and the microstructure of the lead-tin alloy electrodeposited in a gluconate bath were invesitigated according to electrolysis conditions. The tin content of the lead-tin alloy electrodeposits increased with increasing current density and EDTA addition, while it decreased with increasing temperature and sodium gluconate concentration. The preferred orientation of the alloy deposits changed from the (220) plane through (200) to (200) + (111) planes with increasing cathode overpotential. The surface morphology of the films was closely related to both the preferred orientation and the alloy composition.

Film growth rate and composition variation are numerically analyzed during the selective area growth of InGaN on the GaN triangular stripe microfacet in this study. Both the vapor phase diffusion and the surface diffusion are considered to determine the In composition on the InGaN surface. To obtain the In composition on the surface, flux of In atoms due to the surface diffusion is added to the concentration determined from the Laplace equation which is governing the gas phase diffusion. The solution model is validated by comparing the growth rates from the analyses to the experimental results of GaN and InN films. The In composition and resulting wave length are increased when the surface diffusion is considered. The In content is also increased according to the increasing mask width. The effect of mask width to the In content and wave length is increasing in the case of a small open region.

We have studied the effect of the chemical composition of the ZnO nanorod surface on the optical characteristics. The surface was treated with H- and O-plasma at different surface temperatures. The chemical composition of the surface of the ZnO nanorod, being investigated by Auger Electron Spectroscopy(AES), was related to the Photoluminescence(PL) data reported in our previous results. The AES showed the opposite results for the $H_2$ and $O_2$ plasma treatments. The ratio of Zn to O on the surface of the ZnO nanorod increased in the case of $H_2$ plasma, while the composition rate of O increased after $O_2$ plasma treatment. The AES results seems to be correlated to the shift in PL peaks. The increase in the composition rate of Zn on the surface of ZnO nanorod is considered to cause the blue shift of the UV peak. On the contrary, the relative increase of O is considered to cause the red shift in PL peaks.

Good appearance of insulation coating is required for non-oriented silicon steel sheets, The property is influenced by both the chemical composition of coating solution and the species of resin. The composition of inorganic-organic coating was studied to obtain good surface quality for non-oriented silicon steel. The greenish degree of coating surface depended on $Cr^{3+}$ content in the coating layer, which was satisfied when chromate content was more than 54.60 wt. %, in the coating solution. The homogeneous pattern and roughness of the coating surface depended on spreading property of the resin. Surface appearance of the coating could be improved by using resin with good spreading property at the chemical composition of chromate 59.00 wt.%.. resin 34.23wt.%, and etyhylene glycol 6.67 wt.% without colloidal sillica.

304 stainless steel plate was colored by hot dip and electrochemical treatment in a solution containing sulphuric and chromic acids. In the process, treatment variables such as operating time and methode were changed. The surface characteristics that changed by the treatment of the samples such as surface composition, oxide film thickness, color, surface roughness and reflectivity were studied. Surface composition was varied as follows. Fe was decreased, but Cr and O were increased. Ni was increased until 20 min, but reveals decreasing tendency as time passed after that. These means the surface film becomes chrome rich oxide phase as the treatment times increase. The thickness of film was about 220 nm at 30 min by dip treatment and it reduced as the treatment times increased. On the other hand, the thickness was about 150 nm at 10 min by electrochemical method and it doesn't increased with time. Surface color changed from metallic white of the base plate to gray, black, red, and green-blue, gradually, as the treating time increased. The reflectivity of colored surface measured by UVVIS-NIR spectrophotometer was reduced from max 38% of basis metal to min 3.5%.

PURPOSE. The purpose of this study was to compare the surface roughness, phase transformation, and surface topography of dental zirconia with three different yttrium oxide compositions under same grinding and polishing conditions. MATERIALS AND METHODS. Three zirconia disks (IPS e.max ZirCAD LT, MT, MT multi, Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, Liechtenstein) were selected for experimental materials. Sixty-nine bar-shaped specimens were fabricated as 12.0 × 6.0 × 4.0 mm using a milling machine and glazing was conducted on 12.0 × 6.0 mm surface by same operator. With a custom polishing device, 12.0 × 6.0 mm surfaces were polished under same condition. Surface roughness (Ra[㎛]) was measured before grinding (C), after grinding (G), and at every 3 steps of polishing (P1, P2, P3). X-ray diffraction and FE-SEM observation was conducted before grinding, after grinding, and after fine polishing (P3). Statistical analysis of surface roughness was performed using Kruskal-Wallis test and Mann-Whitney-U test was used as a post hoc test (α = .05). RESULTS. There were no significant differences of surface roughness between LT, MT, and MM groups. In LT, MT, and MM groups, P3 groups showed significantly lower surface roughness than C groups. X-ray diffraction showed grinding and polishing didn't lead to phase transformation on zirconia surface. In FE-SEM images, growths in grain size of zirconia were observed as yttrium oxide composition increases. CONCLUSION. Polished zirconia surface showed clinically acceptable surface roughness, but difference in yttrium oxide composition had no significant influence on the surface roughness. Therefore, in clinical situation, zirconia polishing burs could be used regardless of yttrium oxide composition.

Relationships between the plating condition and the plating rate of the deposition film for the electroless plating of Co-Cu-P alloy were discussed in this report. The result obtained from this experiment were summarized as follow ; The optimum bath composition was consisted of 0.8 ppm thiourea as a stabilizing agent. Composition of the deposit was found to be uniform after two hours of electroless plating. Plating rates of nickel-catalytic surface and zincate-catalytic surface were found to be very closely equal, but the plating time of nickel-catalytic surface took longer than that of the zincated-catalytic surface.
