  • The electrodes are usually made of a porous mixture of carbon-supported platinum and ionomers. $SnO_2$ particles provide as supports that have been used for DMFCs, and it have high catalytic activities toward methanol oxidation. The main advantage of $SnO_2$ supported electrodes is that it has strong chemical interactions with metallic components. The high activity to a synergistic bifunctional mechanism in which Pt provides the adsorption sites for CO, while oxygen adsorbs dissociative on $SnO_2$. The reaction between the adsorbed species occurs at the Pt/$SnO_2$ boundary. The morphological observations were characterized by FESEM and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). $SnO_2$ particles crystallinity was analyzed by the X-ray diffraction (XRD). The surface bonded state of the $SnO_2$ particles and electrode materials were observed by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The electric properties of the Pt/$SnO_2$ catalyst for methanol oxidation have been investigated by the cyclic voltametry (CV) in 0.1M $H_2SO_4$ and 0.1M MeOH aqueous solution. The peak current density of methanol oxidation was increased as the $SnO_2$ content in the anode catalysts increased. Pt/$SnO_2$ catalysts improve the removal of CO ads species formed on the platinum surface during methanol electro-oxidation.

  • The double insulating layer consisting of anodic oxide and ZnS was formed for HgCdTe metal insulator semiconductor(MIS) structure. ZnS was evaporated on the anodic oxide grown in H$_{2}$O$_{2}$ electrolyte. Recently, this insulating mechanism for HgCdTe MIS has been deeply studied for improving HgCdTe surface passivation. It was found through TEM observation that an interface layer is formed between ZnS and anodic oxide layers for the first time in the study of this area. EDS analysis of chemical compositions using by electron beam of 20.angs. in diameter and XPS depth composition profile indicated strongly that the new interface is composed of ZnO. Also TEM high resolution image showed that the structure of oxide layer has been changed from the amorphous state to the microsrystalline structure of 100.angs. in diameter after the evaporation of ZnS. The double insulating layer with the resistivity of 10$^{10}$ .ohm.cm was estimated to be proper insulating layer of HgCdTe MIS device. The optical reflectance of about 7% in the region of 5.mu.m showed anti-reflection effect of the insulating layer. The measured C-V curve showed the large shoft of flat band voltage due to the high density of fixed oxide charges about 1.2*10$^{12}$ /cm$^{2}$. The oxygen vacancies and possible cationic state of Zn in the anodic oxide layer are estimated to cause this high density of fixed oxide charges.

  • Irradiation-induced damage of binderless nanoporous-isotropic graphite (NPIG) prepared by isostatic pressing of mesophase carbon microspheres for molten salt reactor was investigated by 3.0 MeV He+ irradiation at room temperature and high temperature of 600 ℃, and IG-110 was used as the comparation. SEM, TEM, X-ray diffraction and Raman spectrum are used to characterize the irradiation effect and the influence of temperature on graphite radiation damage. After irradiation at room temperature, the surface morphology is rougher, the increase of defect clusters makes atom flour bend, the layer spacing increases, and the catalytic graphitization phenomenon of NPIG is observed. However, the density of defects in high temperature environment decreases and other changes are not obvious. Mechanical properties also change due to changes in defects. In addition, SEM and Raman spectra of the cross section show that cracks appear in the depth range of the maximum irradiation dose, and the defect density increases with the increase of irradiation dose.

  • The improvement of luminance and luminous efficiency is the one of the most important part in AC-PDPs. To achieve high luminance and luminous efficiency, high VUV emission efficiency is needed. We measured the emission spectra of vacuum ultraviolet(VUV) and infrared(IR) rays in surface discharge AC-PDP with Ne-Xe mixture gas. The influence of Ne-Xe gas-mixture ratio on resonance state $Xe^{\ast}(3P_{1})$ and exited state $Xe^{\ast}(3P_{2})$ has been investigated. It is found that the intensity of VUV 147nm emission is proportional to that of the IR 828 nm emission, and the VUV 173nm emission is roughly proportional to that of the IR 823nm emission. The electron temperature and plasma density have been experimentally measured from the center of sustaining electrode gap by a micro Langmuir probe in AC-PDPs. The plasma density from the center of sustaining electrode gap are shown to be maximum value of $9{\times}10^{11}cm^{-3}$, where the electron temperature is about 1.6 eV in this experiment

  • Heat transfer performance improvement by fin and groovs is studied for condensation of R-11 on integral-fin tubes. Eight tubes with trapczodially shaped integral-fins having fin density from 748 to 1654fpm(fin per meter) and 10, 30 grooves are tested. A plain tube having the same diameter as the finned tubes is also used for comparison. R-11 condensates at saturation state of 32 $^{\circ}C$ on the outside tube surface coded by inside water flow. All of test data are taken at steady state. The heat transfer loop is used for testing singe long tubes and cooling is pumped from a storage tank through filters and folwmeters to the horizontal test section where it is heated by steam condensing on the outside of the tubes. The pressure drop across the test section is measured by menas pressure gauge and manometer. The results obtained in this study is as follows : 1. Based on inside diameter and nominal inside area, overall heat transfer coefficients of finned tube are enhanced up to 1.6 ~ 3.7 times that of a plain tube at a constant Reynolds number. 2. Friction factors are up to 1.6 ~ 2.1 times those of plain tubes. 3. The constant pumping power ratio for the low integral-fin tubes increase directly with the effective area to the nominal area ratio, and with the effective area diameter ratio. 4. A tube having a fin density of 1299fpm and 30 grooves has the best heat transfer performance.

  • In this paper, the effects of La addition of PLZT(x/30/70) thin films Prepared by sol-gel method are investigated for NVFRAM application. The tetragonality (c/a), the grain size, and the surface roughness of PLZT thin films decrease with an increase of La concentration. As the La concentration increases, the dielectric constants at 10 kHz increase from 450 to 600, while the loss tangent decrease from 0.075 to 0.025. Also, the leakage current density at 100kV/cm decrease from 5.83$\times$10$^{-7}$ to 1.38$\times$10$^{-7}$ 4/$\textrm{cm}^2$. In the results of hysteresis loops measured at $\pm$170kV/cm, the remanent polarization and the coercive field of PLZT thin films with La concentration from 0 to 10㏖% decrease from 20.8 to 10.5 $\mu$C/cm and from 54.48 to 32.12kV/cm, respectively. After a fatigue measurement by applying 10$^{9}$ square pulses with $\pm$5V, the remanent polarizations of PLZT thin films with 0 and 10㏖% La concentration decrease about 64 and 42 % from initial state. In the results of retention measurement after 10$^{5}$ s, PLZT thin films with 0 to 10mo1% La concentration show that the remanent polarization is decreased about 43% and 9% from initial state, respectively.

  • The keyhole formed by high energy density laser-material interaction periodically collapses due to surface tension of the molten metal in partial penetration welds. The collapse sometimes traps a void at the bottom of the keyhole, and it remains as welding defects. This phenomenon is seen as one cause of the instability of the keyhole during laser beam welding. Thus, it seems likely that improving the stability of the keyhole can reduce voids and uniform the penetration depth. The goal of this work is to develop techniques for controlling laser weld keyhole dynamics to reduce weld defects such as voids and inconsistent penetration. Statistical analysis of the penetration depth signals in glycerin determined that keyhole dynamics are chaotic. The chaotic nature of keyhole fluctuations and the ability of laser power modulation to control them have been demonstrated by high-speed video images of laser welds in glycerin. Additionally, an incident leading beam angle is applied to enhance the stability of the keyhole. The quasi-sinusoidal laser beam power of 400Hz frequency and 15$^{\circ}$ incident leading beam angle were determined to be the optimum parameters for the reduction of voids. Finally, chaos analyses of uncontrolled signals and controlled signals were done to show the effectiveness of modulation on the keyhole dynamics. Three-dimensional phase plots for uncontrolled system and controlled system are produced to demonstrate that the chaotic keyhole dynamics is converted to regular periodic behavior by control methods: power modulation and incident leading beam angle.

  • The present work proposes a simple electrochemical method applicable to any immobilization processes of oxidase using a Clark type oxygen electrode as a base transducer. The present work suggests an optimal immobilization technique among three different methods of glucose oxidase(GOD) onto one side of $37[\mu}$mthick blend membranes, composed o 80% of cellulose triacetate and 20% of polycaprolactone, on the basis of the maximum Michaelis-Menten parameter(Vm) determined by either steady state or transient analyses. The electrode system was made of disk type gold cathode(4mm diameter) and Ag/AgCl anode. One side of the blend membrane was in contact with the cathode surface while the other side was immobilized with GOD either in covalent-bond or cross-linked forms, the latter being covered by $25{\mu}$m thick dialysis membrane of cellulose acetate. The resultant current density was on-line monitored by a potentiostat while glucose level was varied from 1 to 20 mM. The present study shows that direct cross-linking of GOD with glutaraldehyde was mostly preferred for fabrication of glucose sensor, on the basis of resultant kinetic parameters from either steady state or transient analyses.

  • 동적인 문제를 해석하는 데 있어서 최대전단탄성계수의 결정은 어떤 변형률에서의 전단응력을 추정하는데 필연적이라 할 수 있다. 그동안 실리카질 모래에 관한 모델이 준시되어 왔지만 그러한 모델을 부서지는 모래에 직점적으로 적용하는 데는 모래의 부서짐(crushability)때문에 어려움이 있다. 본 연구에서는 부서지는 모래의 미소변형률에서의 동적인 거동이 평가되었으며 실험한 모래의 최대 전단탄성 계수에 관한 모델이 제시되었다. 부서지는 모래의 전단탄성 계수는 느슨한 모래의 경우는 실리카질 모래와 유사한 값을 보이나 밀도가 증가하면 입자간의 접촉면적이 커져서 비틀력 (torsional force)으로 인해 모래가 부서져 전단저항이 작아지는 것으로 보인다. 그리고 계수치 (modulus number) 가 Been과 Jefferies (1985)의 상태 정수 (state parameter)로 표현되었다.

  • Pd(001) 위에 올려진 Tc 0.5(Half-monolayer) 웃층의 자성상태와 전자구조를 FLAPW(Full-Potential Linearized Augmented Plane Wave) 에너지 띠 방법을 이용하여 이론적으로 연구하였다. Tc 웃층의 안정된 자성상태를 알아보기 위해 상자성 상태와 강자성 상태의 총에너지를 계산하였다. 계산결과 Tc 0.5 웃층은 강자성 상태가 상자성 상태보다 에너지적으로 안정하였고 그 자기 모멘트는 2.09 $\mu$B이었다. 0.5층 Tc/Pd(001)에 대한 머핀-핀(MT) 구 내의 전자수와 상태밀도 등의 전자구조 계산결과를 제시하고 논의 검토하였다.
