We have carried out the fabrications of a barrier layer on a polyethersulfon (PES) film and organic light emitting diode (OLED) based on a plastic substrate by means of atomic layer deposition (ALD). Simultaneous deposition of 30 nm $AlO_x$ film on both sides of the PES film gave a water vapor transition rate (WVTR) of $0.062 g/m^2/day (@38^{\circ}C,\;100%\;R.H.)$. Further, the double layer of 200 nm $SiN_x$ film deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and 20 nm $AlO_x$ film by ALD resulted in a WVTR value lower than the detection limit of MOCON. We have investigated the OLED encapsulation performance of the double layer using the OLED structure of ITO / MTDATA (20 nm) / NPD (40 nm) / AlQ (60 nm) / LiF (1 nm) / Al (75 nm) on a plastic substrate. The preliminary life time to reach 91% of the initial luminance $(1300 cd/m^2)$ was 260 hours for the OLED encapsulated with 100 nm of PECVD-deposited $SiN_x$ and 30 nm of ALD-deposited $AlO_x$.

A making process of DSC(dye sensitized solar cell) was presented. In general, Photo electrodes of DSC was made by using colloid paste of nano $TiO_2$ and processing of Doctor-blade printing and high temperature sintering for porous structure. These methods lead to cracks on $TiO_2$ surface and ununiform of $TiO_2$ thickness. This phenomenon is one factor that makes low efficiency to cells. After $TiO_2$ printing on TCO glass, a physical vibration was adapted for reducing ununiform of $TiO_2$ thickness. And a thermal treatment at low temperature(under $75^{\circ}C$) was adapted for reducing cracks on $TiO_2$ surface. In this paper, we have designed and manufactured an ultrasonic circuit (100W, frequency and duty variable) and a thermal equipment. Then, we have optimized forcing time, frequency and duty of ultrasonic irradiation and thermal heating for surface treatment of photo-electrode of DSC. In I-V characteristic test of DSC, ultrasonic and thermal treated DSC shows 19% improved its efficiency against monolithic DSC. And it shows stability of light-harvesting from drastically change of light irradiation test.

The inner-structure bonded(ISB) sheet metal is defined as a composite sheet metal which has middle layer of truss-structure between two skin sheets. The characteristics such as ultra-light weight, high rigidity, high strength, etc are required especially for automobile parts. The characteristic of ISB sheet metal depends on inner-structure pattern or method of bonding. Pyramid type of crimped expanded metal is used for inner-structure and both of resistance welding and adhesive bonding are applied to make a specimen. As a result of compression test, it is appeared that forming limit is 10% reduction in thickness under a load of 8kgf per unit element(one inner-structure). In case of uniaxial tensile test the non-uniform surface integrity rather than the buckling of inner-structure happened at a load of 450kgf, which indicates elongation of 7.2% and thickness reduction of 13%. The eye-inspection method was applied to examine the defects occurring on the specimen during stretch forming. In case of biaxial stretch forming only the non-uniform deformation on the surface of a skin sheet could be observed. The forming limit in stretching of ISB sheet metal with the hemi-spherical punch of 150mm in diameter was 3mm in forming depth and 5% reduction in thickness.

The luminescent properties of $Eu^{3+}$ and $Sm^{3+}$ doped potassium tungstate phosphor were investigated. The $K_{4-3x}(WO_4)_2:Eu_x$, $Sm_y$ phosphor was produced by firing the mixed precursors, followed by re-firing with a flux. The re-firing process provided the clean surface to the particles. The excitation spectra showed that the strong absorption in the region of ultra violet light occurred due to the high europium doping concentration. The incorporation of europium to potassium tungstate was easier, compared to other host materials. The excitation spectra could be controlled by the small addition of samarium. The increase of energy absorption around 405nm was assigned to the $Sm^{3+}$ ions. The comparison between real x-ray diffraction and simulated one revealed that the crystal structure of $K_{4-3x}(WO_4)_2:Eu_x,Sm_y$ phosphor is monoclinic with a space group, C2/c.

Wire-woven Bulk Kagome (WBK) is a new truss type cellular metal fabricated by systematic assembling of helical wires in six directions. In this work, the experiments of mechanical behaviors of WBK cored sandwich panels subjected to bending load were performed and the results were compared with those by the corresponding analytic solutions. And also, finite element simulations were performed to validate the optimal design according to the analytic solutions. It is found the sandwich panel with WBK core performed excellently in terms of energy absorption and deformation stability after the peak point as well as the load capacity.

Recently, a new periodic cellular metal(PCM) named as Wire wove Bulk Kagome(WBK) was introduced. Based on the shape of tetrahedra composing a WBK, WBKs are classified into two types, namely, concave and convex type. They are easily differentiated by changing the assembling sequence. The effect of geometrical parameters such as the wire diameter, strut length and number of layers on the compressive behavior of concave type WBK has already been investigated. In this work, the similar works were performed with the convex type WBKs. It was shown that the compressive strength of the convex type WBK was quite similar to that of the concave type. The compressive strengths of convex type specimens also depend on the slenderness ratio, but a little different from those of concave type specimens in the detailed behavior. And densification occurs earlier than the concave type WBK.

$Bi_2Sr_2CuO_x$ thin films were fabricated by atomic layer-by-layer deposition using an ion beam sputtering method, 10 wt% and 90 wt% ozone mixed with oxygen were used with ultraviolet light irradiation to assist oxidation. At early stages of the atomic layer by layer deposition, two dimensional epitaxial growth which covers the substrate surface would be suppressed by the stress and strain caused by the lattice misfit, then three dimensional growth takes place. Since Cu element is the most difficult to oxidize, only Sr and Bi react with each other predominantly, and forms a buffer layer on the substrate in an amorphous-like structure, which is changed to $SrBi_2O_4$ by in-situ anneal.

In part 1. optimal process parameters such as thickness of stopper and welding time are achieved to produce high strength ISB(Inner Structured and Bonded) panels. Developed process is different from the usual resistance welding process in the number of points welded at a time. In part 2, Numerical modeling for this new process is proposed and the variation of contact area with respect to the gap of electrodes is studied through FE analyses, Besides, it is tried to figure out the welding nugget formation and proper distance between welding points. FE analytic results show that inner structures are melted more than skin plate, and current distribution between points to be welded can be controlled by distance welding points. Comparison of some FE analytic results with corresponding experimental results could confirm the validity of the proposed numerical modeling.

As in other areas of materials technology, the tendency towards light weight constructions becomes more and more important also for powder metallurgy. The development is mainly driven by the automotive industry looking for mass reduction of vehicles as a major factor for fuel economy. Powder metallurgy has to offer a number of interesting areas including the development of sintered materials of light metals. PM aluminium alloys with improved properties are on the way to replace ferrous pars. For high temperature applications in the engine, titanium aluminide based materials offer a great potential, e.g. for exhaust valves. The PM route using elemental powders and reactions sintering is considered to be a cost effective way for net shape parts production. Furthermore it is expected that lower costs for titanium raw materials coming from metallurgical activities will offer new chances for sintered parts with titanium alloys. The field of cellular metals expands with the hollow sphere technique, that can provide materials of many metals and alloys with a great flexibility in structure modifications. These structures are expected to be used in improving the safety (crash absoption) and noise reduction in cars in the near future and offer great potential for many other applications.

The luminescent properties of $Eu^{3+}$ and $Sm^{3+}$ doped potassium tungstate phosphor are investigated. The $K_{4-3x}(WO_4)_2:Eu^{3+}\;_x,Sm^{3+}\;_y$ phosphor is produced by firing the mixed precursors, followed by re-firing with a flux. The re-firing process results in the defect-free surface and uniform growth of the particles. The strong absorption in the region of ultra violet light is observed due to the 4f-4f electron transitions of the $Eu^{3+}$ and $Sm^{3+}$ ions. The doping concentration of europium into potassium tungstate is relatively high, compared to other host materials. It is revealed that the crystal structure is a monoclinic with space group, C2/c. This crystal structure facilitated the $Eu^{3+}$ ions to be located with the Eu-Eu distance larger than 5 ${\AA}$ so that concentration quenching does not occur even at high doping concentration. The excitation spectrum could be adjusted by the introduction of the samarium. A small amount of the $Sm^{3+}$ ions that acts as a sensitizer increases the energy absorption peak around 405 nm.
