$Al_2O_3$ films on silicon carbide were fabricated by Aerosol deposition with annealing temperature at $800^{\circ}C$ and $1,000^{\circ}C$. The effect of thermal treatment on physical properties of $Al_2O_3$ thin films has been investigated by XRD (X-ray diffraction), AFM (atomic force microscope), SEM (scanning electron microscope), and AES (auger electron spectroscopy). Also electrical properties have been investigated by Keithley 4,200 semiconductor parameter analyzer to explain the interface trapped charge density ($D_{it}$), flatband voltage ($V_{FB}$) and leakage current ($I_o$). $Al_2O_3$ films become crystallized with increasing temperature by calculating full width at half maximum (FWHM) of diffraction peaks, also surface morphology is observed by topography measurement in non-contact mode AFM. $D_{it}$ was $2.26{\times}10^{-12}eV^{-1}.cm^{-2}$ at $800^{\circ}C$ annealed sample, which is the lowest value in all samples. Also the sample annealed at $800^{\circ}C$ has the lowest leakage current of $4.89{\times}10^{-13}A$.

Atomic force microscope (AFM) has become a common tool for the structural and physical studies of biological macromolecules, mainly because it provides the ability to perform experiments with samples in a buffer solution. In this study, structure of proteins and nucleic acids has been studied in their physiological environment that allows native intermolecular complexes to be formed. Cr and Au were deposited on p-Si (100) substrate by thermal evaporation method in sequence with the thickness of $200{\AA}$ and $500{\AA}$, respectively, since Au is adequate for immobilizing biomolecules by forming a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) with semiconductor-based biosensors. The SAM, streptavidin and biotin interacted each other with their specific binding energy and their adsorption was analyzed using the Bio-AFM both in a solution and under air environment. A silicon nitride tip was used as a contact tip of Bio-AFM measurement in a solution and an antimony doped silicon tip as a tapping tip under air environment. Actual morphology could also be obtained by 3-dimensional AFM images. The length and agglomerate size of biomolecules was measured in stages. Furthermore, $R_{a}$ (average of surface roughness) and $R_{ms}$ (mean square of surface roughness) and surface density for the adsorbed surface were also calculated from the AFM image.

대형선박에서 적절한 처리없이 배출되는 발라스트수에 의한 해양 생태계의 파괴가 최근 전세계적으로 환경오염 문제로 대두되고 있다. 그 결과, 국제해사기구(IMO)는 공해로 배출되기 전 발라스트수의 적절한 처리를 강제하는 국제협약을 시행할 예정이다. IMO의 발라스트수 처리 기준을 준수하기 위해, 여과, UV 자외선, 오존 처리 등과 같은 몇몇 공정들이 연구되고 있다. 발라스트수의 살균은 매우 짧은 수리학적 체류시간 내에 처리되어야 하기 때문에, 전기화학적 처리 공정은 우수한 공정이 된다. 불용성 전극을 이용한 전기화학적 처리 공정에서 미생물의 살균능은 낮은 pH조건하에 전류밀도와 체류시간이 증가함에 따라 증가하였다. 살균처리 후 미생물의 형상을 전자현미경과 광학현미경으로 관찰하여 전기화학적으로 미생물이 살균된 형태를 확인하였다.

Strip casting process is a new technology that makes a near net shape thin strip directly from molten metal. With this process, a large amount of energy and casting cost could be decreased from the abbreviation of reheating and/or hot rolling process. Ductile cast iron which has spheroidal graphite in the matrix is the most commercial and industrial material, because of its supreme strength, toughness, and wear resistance etc. But it cannot be produced to the thin strip owing to difficulty in rolling of ductile cast iron. In this study, ductile cast iron strips are produced by the twin roll strip caster, with different chemical compositions of C, Si, and Mn contents. And then heat-treated, microstructures and mechanical properties are examined. The microstructures of as-cast strip are that of white cast iron which consists of the mixture of cementite and pearlite, but the equiaxed crystal zone of the pearlite or segregation zone of cementite exists in the center region of the strip thickness, which cannot be observed in the rapidly solidified metallic mold cast specimens. This structure is supposed to be formed from the thermal distribution of strip and the rolling force. Comparing with the structures of each strips after heat treatment, increasing Si content makes smaller spheroidal graphite and more compact in the matrix, furthermore the less of Mn content makes the ferrite matrix be obtained clearer and easier. As a result of the tensile test of graphitization heat-treated strips, the yield strengths are about 250 MPa, the tensile strengths are about $430{\sim}500$ MPa, and the elongations are about $10{\sim}13%$. In the case of the strip which has the smaller and more compact spheroidal graphite in the ferrite matrix, the higher tensile strength and better drawability could be obtained.

In this study, $Cu(In_{1-x},Ga_x)Se_2$ (CIGS) thin films were prepared on the Mo coated soda-lime glass by the DC magnetron sputtering and a subsequent selenization process. For the selenization process, selenization rapid thermal process(RTP) with cracker cell, which was helpful to smaller an atomic of Se, was adopted. To make CIGS layer, they were then annealed with the cracked Se. Based on this selenization method, we made several CIGS thin film and investigated the effects of In deposition time, and selenization time. Through x-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and atomic force microscopy (AFM), it is found that the Mo/In/CuGa structure and the high sputtering power shows the dominant chalcopyrite structure and have a uniform distribution of the grain size. The CIGS films with the In deposition time of 5 min has the best structure due to the smooth surface. And CIGS films with the selenization time of 50 min show good crystalline growth without any voids.

To study the physical and chemical properties, solid solutions of $(Sr_{1-x}Ba_x)NdFe{^{3+}}_{1-\tau}Fe{^{4+}}_{\tau}O_{4-y}$ system with x=0.0(SBN-0), 0.1(SBN-1), 0.2(SBN-2) and 0.3(SBN-3) were synthesized in air at 1,473 K and annealed in air at 1,073 K for 24 h. X-ray powder diffraction assured that the four samples had tetragonal symmetries (I4/mmm). Their lattice volumes increased gradually with x values. Nonstoichiometric chemical formulas were formulated using the data such as $\tau$(amount of $Fe^{4+}$ ion) and y(oxygen deficiency) values using Mohr salt analysis. It was found out that all the four samples had excessive oxygen (4-y>4.0). All the samples started to lose some of their oxygen at around 613K(TG/DTA thermal analysis). They exhibited semiconductivities in the temperature range of around 283-1173K. All the four specimens had sufficient tensile strength to endure the force of 19.6 N (2 kg of weights) and the conductivity values of the ECIAs which were painted on pieces of glass with the area of $150mm^2$ ($10mm{\times}15mm$) and it was in the order of ECIA-0${\rightarrow}$ECIA-1${\rightarrow}$ECIA-2${\rightarrow}$ECIA-3 at a constant temperature.

Friction and wear properties of brake friction materials containing different metal fibers (Al, Cu or Steel fibers) were investigated. Based on a simple experimental formulation, friction materials with the same amount of metal fibers were tested using a pad-on-disk type friction tester. Two different materials (gray cast iron and aluminum metal matrix composite (MMC)) were used for disks rubbing against the friction materials. Results front ambient temperature tests revealed that the friction material containing Cu fibers sliding against gray cast iron disk showed a distinct negative $\mu$-v (friction coefficient vs. sliding velocity) relation implying possible stick-slip generation at low speeds. The negative $\mu$- v relation was not observed when the Cu-containing friction materials were rubbed against the Al-MMC counter surface. Elevated temperature tests showed that the friction level and the intensity of friction force oscillation were strongly affected by the thermal conductivity and melting temperature of metallic ingredients of the friction couple. Friction materials slid against cast iron disks exhibited higher friction coefficients than Al-MMC (metal matrix composite) disks during high temperature tests. On the other hand, high temperature test results suggested that copper fibers in the friction material improved fade resistance and that steel fibers were not compatible with Al-MMC disks showing severe material transfer and erratic friction behavior during sliding at elevated temperatures.
