In X-ray stress measurements for uni-directionally deformed surfaces such as grinding, a strongly curved $sin^2{\Psi} diagram, so called $\Psi-splitter, has been observed recently. It has been known that this is caused by the residual shear stress induced in the deformed layer by external forces. In this case it is necessary to consider this enough for ceramics and composite materials with tri-axial stress analysis. However, sufficient studies have not been done about the tri-axial stress analysis of the macro stress and micro. stress on each phase of the composite materials. The result of obtaining is as follows. 1. $\Psi-splitter does not appear in the vertical direction though $\Psi-splitter appears in grinding direction in WC-Co cemented carbides. The reversal of $\Psi-splitter to each phase does not appear. 2. $\Psi-splitter caused in WC-Co cemented carbides has a close relation in dislocation which accumulates in WC phase and phase transformation caused in Co phase. 3. The residual stress on the surface of grinding of each phase is in the state of the compression stress.

SnO₂ 30/Ag 15/SnO₂ 30 nm(SAS) tri-layer films were deposited on the glass substrates with RF and DC magnetron sputtering and then electron beam is irradiated on the surface to investigate the effect of electron bombardment on the opto-electrical performance of the films. electron beam irradiated tri-layer films at 1000 eV show a higher figure of merit of 2.72×10^-3 Ω^-1 than the as deposited films due to a high visible light transmittance of 72.1% and a low sheet resistance of 14.0 Ω/☐, respectively. From the observed results, it is concluded that the post-deposition electron irradiated SnO₂ 30/Ag 15/SnO₂ 30 nm tri-layer films can be used as a substitute for conventional transparent conducting oxide films in various opto-electrical applications.

Molybdeum oxide-doped 4,4',4"-tris(2-naphthyl(phenyl)amino)tri- phenylamine (2-TNATA) layer 의 도핑농도가 75%일 때 OLED 소자의 성능이 향상되었다. Hole transport layer (HTL) 로 사용된 MOOX-doped 2-TNATA layer는 hole-injection barrier height를 낮추어서 효율적인 홀주입특성을 보였다. 그러나 도핑농도가 75%이하일 때는 소자 특성이 나빠짐을 알 수 있었다.

Commercially available continuous glucose sensors require the operation stability for more than two weeks. Typically, the sensor comprises a sensing layer and an over-coating layer for the stable operation inside the body. In the sensing layer, enzymes and mediators are cross-linked together for the effective sensing of the glucose. The over-coating layer limits the flux of glucose and works as a biocompatible layer to the body fluids. Here, we report the simple preparation of the flux-limiting layer by the condensation of polyethyleneimine (PEI), tri-epoxide linker, and trimethylolpropane triglycidyl ether (PTGE). The sensor is constructed by a layer-by-layer drop-coating of the sensing layer containing glucose dehydrogenase and the PEI-derived blocking layer. It is stable for more than 14 days, which is enough for the sensor in the continuous monitor glucose monitoring (CGM) system.

Reducing optical reflection in the visible light range, in order to increase the share of transmitted light and avoid the formation of ghost images in imaging, is important for polymer lens applications. In this study, polymer lenses with refractive indices of n=1.56, 1.60, and 1.67 were fabricated by the injection-molding method with a polymer lens monomer, dibutyltin dichloride as the catalyst and an alkyl phosphoric ester as the release agent. To investigate their anti-reflection (AR) effects, various AR coating structures, viz. a multi-layer AR coating structure, tri-layer AR coating structure with a discrete approximation Gaussian gradient-index profile, and tri-layer AR coating structure with a quarter-wavelength approximation, were designed and coated on the polymer lens by an E-beam evaporation system. The optical properties of the polymer lenses were characterized by UV-visible spectrometry. The material properties of the thin films, refractive index and surface roughness, were analyzed by ellipsometry and AFM, respectively. The most effective AR coating structure of the polymer lens with low refractive index, n=1.56, was the both side coating of multi-layer AR coating structure. However, both side coating of the tri-layered discrete approximation Gaussian gradient-index profile AR coating structure gave comparable results to the both side coating of the multi-layer AR coating structure for the polymer lens with a high refractive index of n=1.67.

In this paper, novel methods for improvement of thermal stability of Ni-germano Silicide were proposed for nano CMOS applications. It was shown that there happened agglomeration and abnormal oxidation in case of Ni-germano Silicide using Ni only structure. Therefore, 4 kinds of tri-layer structure, such as, Ti/Ni/TiN, Ni/Ti/TiN, Co/Ni/TiN and Ni/Co/TiN were proposed utilizing Co and Ti interlayer to improve thermal stability of Ni-germano Silicide. Ti/Ni/TiN structure showed the best improvement of thermal stability and suppression of abnormal oxidation although all kinds of structures showed improvement of sheet resistance. That is, Ti/Ni/TiN structure showed only 11 ohm/sq. in spite of 600 $^{\circ}C$, 30 min post silicidation annealing while Ni-only structure show 42 ohm/sq. Therefore, Ti/Ni/TiN structure is highly promising for nano-scale CMOS technology.

Transparent and conductive ZnO/Ag/SnO2 (ZAS) tri-layer films were deposited onto glass substrates at room temperature by using radio frequency (RF) and direct current (DC) magnetron sputtering. The thickness values of the ZnO and $SnO_2$ thin films were kept constant at 50 nm and the value for Ag interlayer was varied as 5, 10, 15, and 20 nm. In the XRD pattern the diffraction peaks were identified as the (002) and (103) planes of ZnO, while the (111), (200), (220), and (311) planes could be attributed to the Ag interlayer. The optical transmittance and electrical resistivity were dependent on the thickness of the Ag interlayer. The ZAS films with a 10 nm thick Ag interlayer exhibited a higher figure of merit than the other ZAS films prepared in this study. From the observed results, a ZAS film with a 10 nm thick Ag interlayer was believed to be an alternative transparent electrode candidate for various opto-electrical devices.

The relationships among the contents of Pb, Zn, Cd, Cu and microbial biomass and activity of soil were investigated in Kyongbu, Yongdong, and Chungbu highways. The heavy metal concentrations were the highest in Kyongbu highway with high traffic density. The levels of these metals in soil in three highway sites were much higher than Mt. Kwank as control site. The highest concentrations of heavy metals were found in the upper layer of soil adjacent to the roadside. Dehydrogenase activity (DHA) and adenosine tri-phosphate (ATP) contents were generally lowest at distance of 0.5 m from the roadside. Simple regression analysis indicated that DHA and ATP contents were highly negatively correlated with Pb and Zn concentrations.

TRISO(tri-isotropic)-coated fuel particle technology is utilized owing to its higher stability at a high temperature and Its efficient retention capability for fission products In the HTGR(high temperature gas-reeled reactor). The typical spherical TRISO fuel panicle with a diameter of about 1mm is composed of a nuclear fuel kernel and outer coating layers. The outer coating layers consist of a buffer PyC(pyrolytic carbon) layer, Inner PyC(1-PyC) layer, SiC layer, and outer PyC(O-PyC) layer Most of the Inspection Items for the TRTSO-coated fuel particle depend on destructive methods. The coating thickness of the TRISO fuel particle can be nondestructively measured by the X-ray radiography without generating radioactive wastel. In this study, the coaling thickness for the simulated TRISO-coated fuel particle with $ZrO_2$ kernel Instead of $%UO_2$ kernel was measured by using micro-focus X-ray radiography with micro-focus X-ray generator and flat panel detector The radiographic image was also enhanced by image processing technique to acquire clear boundary lines between coating layers. The coaling thickness wat effectively measured by applying the micro-focus X-ray radiography The inspection process for the TRISO-coated fuel particles will be improved by the developed micro-focus X-ray radiography and digital image processing technology.
