플라즈마 분자선 에피택시(plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy)법을 이용하여 다공질 실리콘(porous silicon)에 ZnO 박막을 성장하였다. 성장 후, 아르곤 분위기에서 10분 간 다양한 온도(500~700$^{\circ}C$)로 열처리하였다. 다공질 실리콘 및 열처리 온도가 ZnO 박막의 특성에 미치는 영향을 scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 실리콘 기판에 성장된 ZnO 박막은 일반적은 섬구조(island structure)로 성장된 반면, 다공질 실리콘에 성장된 ZnO 박막은 산맥과 같은 구조(mountain range-like structure)로 성장되었다. 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 ZnO 박막의 grain size는 증가하였다. 실리콘 기판 위에 성장된 ZnO 박막은 wurtzite 구조를 나타내는 여러 개의 회절 피크가 관찰된 반면, 다공질 실리콘에 성장된 ZnO 박막은 c-축 배향성(c-axis preferred orientation)을 나타내는 ZnO (002) 회절 피크만이 나타났다. 다공질 실리콘에 성장된 ZnO 박막의 구조적 및 광학적 특성이 실리콘 기판에 성장된 ZnO 박막의 특성보다 우수하게 나타났다. 뿐만 아니라, 열처리 온도가 증가함에 따라 다공질 실리콘에 성장된 ZnO 박막의 PL 강도비(intensity ratio)가 실리콘 기판에 성장된 ZnO 박막의 강도비보다 월등하게 증가하였다.

$Ni_{1-x}Mg_xFe_2O_4$ ferrite system was studied by using X-ray diffraction and $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectroscopy. The samples were prepared by ceramic sintering method with Mg content x. The X-ray diffraction patterns of samples show phase of cubic spinel structure. There are no remarkable changes of lattice constants in $Ni_{1-x}Mg_xFe_2O_4$ ferrite system. The $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectra were consisted of two sets of six lines, respectively, corresponding to $Fe^{3+}$ at tetrahedral and octahedral sites. The magnetic hyperfine field of samples was decreased as increasing Mg contents x in both sites and it was shown Yafet-Kittel magnetic structure. $NiFe_2O_4$ was shown complete inverse spinel, but $NiFe_2O_4$ was shown partial inverse spinel which absorption area ratio (oct/tet) was 1.449 in $M{\ddot{o}}ssbauer$ spectrum.

In the present work, electroless plating was used for coating thin films consisting mainly of Ni and P on carbon fiber. Structural changes appeared upon the post-annealing at various temperatures of the Ni-P film on carbon fiber was studied using various analysis methods. Scanning, a flat surface structure of Ni-P film on carbon fiber was found after electroless plating of Ni-P film on carbon fiber without post-annealing, whereas annealing at $350^{\circ}C$ resulted the formation of porous structures. With increasing the annealing temperature to $650^{\circ}C$ with an interval of $50^{\circ}C$, the pore size increased, but the density decreased. X-ray diffraction (XRD) showed the existence of metallic Ni, and Ni-P compounds before post-annealing, whereas the post-annealing resulted in the appearance of NiO peaks, and the decrease in the intensity of the peak of metallic Ni. Using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), phosphorous oxides were detected on the surface upon annealing at $650^{\circ}C$, and $700^{\circ}C$, which can be attributed to the phosphorous compounds originally existing in the deeper layers of the Ni films, which undergo sublimation and escape from the film upon annealing. Escape of phosphorous species from the bulk of Ni-P film upon annealing could leave a porous structure in the Ni films. Porous materials can be of potential applications in diverse fields due to their interesting physical properties such as high surface area, and methods for fabricating porous Ni films introduced here could be easily applied to a large-scale production, and therefore applicable in diverse fields such as environmental filters.

The displacement data monitored during tunnel construction play a crucial role in predicting the behaviour of ground around and ahead of excavation face. However, the management criteria for monitoring data are not well established especially for the reliable analysis on varying aspect of displacement data along with chainage. In this study, we evaluated the applicability of x-MR control chart method, which is kind of applied statistical management method, for the analysis of displacement monitoring data in terms of prediction of possible collapse or induced cracks. As a result, a possible abnormal behaviour could be predicted beforehand at 5 ~ 13 m ahead or on at least one day before it occurred by using x-MR control chart method. In addition, it is noted that the moving range for the x-MR control chart should be set to 5~10 for this purpose.

Nanocrystalline NiAl alloy containing 36at.%Al was synthesized by mechanical alloying (MA). Synthesized powder was sintered by a pulse electric current sintering (PECS) facility. Effecting parameters on the phase transformation were discussed in terms of cooling rate and time spent on heat treatment. The behavior of phase transformation for sintered parts was examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. Microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Martensitic lattice parameter and volume fraction was calculated by direct comparison method in X-ray diffraction analysis.

Mineralogical and chemical examinations were performed on chlorite-smectite mixed layer minerals that occur in the sandstones from a petroleum exploration well in the southern part of the Ulleung Basin. X-ray diffraction and chemical analyses show that the chlorite-smectite mixed layer mineral is tosudite, a 1 : 1 R1 ordered interstratification of chlorite and smectite with an overall dioctahedral character. This mineral is almost the same as the tosudite reported from hydrothermally-altered regions, which is rich in Li. This fact indicates that the tosudite area may be affected by hydrothermal events, because the studied well is located in the tectonically-deformed area, in which lots of trust faults and folds are present. In these respects, the formation of tosudite is probably due to the variable effect of hydrothermal fluids from the deeper part of the area.

Perovskite type compounds of the $La_{1-x}Ca_xFeO_{3-y}$ system were prepared from stoichiometric mixtures of La_2O_3,\;CaCO_3$, and Fe(NO-3)_3{\cdot}9H_2O$ by heating at 1100$^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The crystallographic structures of the solid solutions of all compositions were orthorhombic systems. X-ray diffraction and Mohr salt analysis revealed that at higher y value the phase transition due to vacancy ordering occured and that the lattice volume decreased when the x value was increased. The value of nonstoichiometric ratio y were found to be in the range of $0.0{\sim}0.5$. Electrical conductivities of this systems are measured in temperature range of -100 to 100$^{\circ}C$. Ionic contribution to total conductivity was found from activation energy in the phase containing the open pathway due to vacancy ordering.

Nonstoichiometric solid solutions of $Y_{1-x}A_xFeO_{3-y}$ (A = Ca, Sr) systems with perovskite structure were prepared for x = 0.00, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1.00 at 1200$^{\circ}C$ under atmospheric pressure, respectively. Crystallographic structures of the solid solutions of all compositions have been determined by the analysis of X-ray diffraction patterns. Reduced lattice volume of the $Y_{1-x}Ca_xFeO_{3-y}$ system was decreased with increasing x value and that of the $Y_{1-x}Sr_xFeO_{3-y}$ system was increased with increasing the x value. The mole ratios of $ Fe^{4+}$ to $ Fe^{3+}$, ${\tau}$, values in the solid solutions have been determined by Mohr salt's method of analysis and then the mixed valency was identified by Mossbauer spectroscopic analysis at 298 K. The y values were calculated from the x and ${\tau}$, and then nonstoichiometric chemical formulas were fixed. The conduction mechanism could be explained by hopping model of the conduction electrons between the mixed valence states.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{1-x}Ge_{1-y}Fe_{x+y}O_3$ system were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. All the samples have orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants some decreased as the substituted iron contents increasing. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperature of our samples are about 12.5 K and these temperatures lowered as increasing substituted iron contents. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrapole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted with the variation of the superexchange interaction, the symmetry of lattice sites and the covalency of bonds due to the atomic displacements.

Potassium-Graphite Fiber Intercalation Compounds(K-GFIC) have been prepared from well oriented pitch-based Graphite fiber by the transformed two-bulbs method with variation of reaction temperatures of graphite($T_g$ : $450^{\circ}C$, $400^{\circ}C$, $350^{\circ}C$, $300^{\circ}C$, $250^{\circ}C$). The stage transition process of K-GFICs was studied by X-ray diffraction methods, and we have observed peaks with d-values of (001) diffraction of $5.40{\AA}$ and $8.78({\pm}0.01){\AA}$, which are charecteristic for the stage 1 and stage 2, respectively. The stage stability and energy states of K-GFICs were studied by UV/VIS spectrophotometer. As a results, We found that the minimum values of reflactance of K-GFICs with pure stage was moved to higher energy pristine Graphite fiber's. But because of mixtured stage, we could not observe minimum reflectance in the visible region at high reaction temperatures($400^{\circ}C$, $450^{\circ}C$). From X-ray diffraction and UV/VIS sepctrophotometry data, we can suggest that K-GFICs with lower stage has many charge carriers existed between C atoms of graphite Layers. And then, these results also provides information on the electrical and other physical properties of K-GFICs.
