A spark discharge aerosol generator using air as a carrier gas has successfully been applied to silver nanoparticle production. The spark discharge between two silver electrodes, which was periodically obtained by discharging the capacitor, produced sufficient high temperatures to evaporate a small fraction of the silver electrodes. The silver vapor was subsequently supersaturated by rapid cooling and condensed to silver nanoparticles by nucleation and condensation. The morphology of the generated particles observed by transmission electron microscope was spherical. The element composition of the nanoparticles was silver, which was determined by energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The crystal phase of the particles spark-generated under air atmosphere was composed of silver and silver oxides phase, which was determined by Xray diffraction analysis. While the nanoparticles generated under nitrogen atmosphere had only silver phase. This XRD data indicates that some fraction of the evaporated silver vapor could be oxidized in air atmosphere by the reaction with oxygen. A stable operation of the spark discharge generator has been achieved. The size and concentration of the particles can be easily controlled by altering the repetition frequency, capacitance, gap distance and flow rate of the spark discharge system.

Two novel binuclear metal-organic coordination complexes $[Cd_2(L)_2(bpy)_2(H_2O)_2]{\cdot}6H_2O$ (1), $[Cd_2(L)_2(phen)_2-(H_2O)_2]{\cdot}2H_2O$ (2) (where L = 2-methylquinoline-3,4-dicarboxylate dianion, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) have been synthesized under hydrothermal conditions and characterized by single crystal Xray diffraction, spectral method (IR), elemental analysis and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). Both 1 and 2 consist of two Cd(II) atoms bridged by two monoatomic bridging carboxylate groups from two L ligands, and the second carboxylate group of each L is monodentately coordinated to Cd(II), creating a sevenmembered chelating ring. The coordination at each metal nucleus is completed by a water molecule and a chelating bidentate molecule. The 3D structures of the complexes are stabilized by ${\pi}-{\pi}$ stacking interactions and hydrogen-bonds.

Effects of hydrogenation on microstructure and mechanical properties of pure Ti and Ti-0.15Pd alloy have been studied by means of optical microscopy, differential scanning calorimeter(DSC), Xray diffraction and micro vicker's hardness test. Grain size of pure Ti and Ti-0.15Pd alloy decresed largely by hydrogenation finer than that of pure Ti and the grain size refinement was evedent in Ti-0.15Pd alloy than that in pure Ti. Ti-.015Pd alloy carried out solution treatment at 950$^{\circ}C$, the transformation of $\alpha$' martensite was occured. The amount of Hydrogen absorption in Ti-.015Pd alloy was higher than that in pure Ti. Decomposition of hydride in pure titanium and Ti-0.15Pd alloy increased largely by hydrogenation, and micro vicker's hardness of Ti-.015Pd alloy was largely than that of pure Ti by 30% after hydrogenation. The micro vicker's hardness of Ti-0.15Pd alloy after solution treatment and dehydrogenation were higher at $\beta$ phase ranger(950$^{\circ}C$) than that phase range(750$^{\circ}C$).

Physicochemical properties of native and acid-modified Job's tears (Coix lachryma-jobi L.) starches were investigated. Starch extracted from Job's tears was treated with 2.2 N hydrochloric acid for different length of time (3, 6, 12, and 18 hr). The hydrolysis pattern of starches with the acid proceeded rapidly up to 12 hr and then the approached constant values. The swelling power of acid-modified starches measured at all temperatures was lower than that of its native counterparts and the water solubility index increased as temperature and hydrolysis time increased. Rapid visco analyzer viscograms of acid-modified starches demonstrated a very low viscosity as compared with that of native starch. However, Xray diffraction did not show any significant alteration in the crystallinity after acid-modification.

This study examined In-Zn-Sn-O (IZTO) films deposited on glass substrates by pulsed DC magnetron sputtering with various substrate temperatures. The structural, electrical, optical properties were analyzed. Xray diffraction showed that the IZTO films prepared at temperatures > $150^{\circ}C$ were crystalline which adversely affected the electrical properties. Amorphous IZTO films prepared at $100^{\circ}C$ showed the best properties, such as a low resistivity, high transmittance, figure of merit, and high work function of $4.07{\times}10^{-4}\;{\Omega}$, 85%, $10.57{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}^{-1}$, and 5.37 eV, respectively. This suggests that amorphous IZTO films deposited at relatively low substrate temperatures ($100^{\circ}C$) are suitable for electrode applications, such as OLEDs as a substitute for conventional crystallized ITO films.

The effect of praseodymium substitution on the ferroelectric properties of $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films have been investigated. Ferroelectric Pr-substituted $Bi_4Ti_3O_{12}$ thin films were fabricated by chemical solution deposition onto Pt/Ti/$SiO_2$/Si substrates. The structure and morphology of the films were analyzed using Xray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. About 200-nm-thick BPT films grown at $720^{\circ}C$ exhibited a polycrystalline structure and showed excellent ferroelectric properties with a remanent polarization ($2P_r$) of $28.21\;{\mu}C/cm^2$ at an applied voltage of 5 V. The films a1so demonstrate fatigue-free behavior up to $10^{11}$ read/write switching cycles with 1 MHz bipolar pulses at an electric field of ${\pm}5\;V$.

Transparent Conductive Oxides (TCO) 박막은 지금 까지 산업 전반에 걸쳐 많이 응용되어 사용되어지는 박막 중에 하나이다. 그대표적인 산업은 디스플레이 산업 중 평면디스플레이 산업에서 투명 전극으로 사용하는 LCD 및 터치패널에 사용되는 전극으로 사용되어져 왔다. 현재에는 솔라 셀의 전극 및 기판으로서의 응용이 많이 연구되어지고 있다. 이와 같은, 산업에서 사용되는 투명전극 재료는 낮은 전기적 특성 및 애칭특성이 우수하고 높은 광 투과도를 필요로 하고 있으며, 이러한 특성을 모두 만족하며 가장 우수한 물성을 나타내는 물질이 (Indium Tin Oxide) film이다. 하지만 Indium의 고갈과 희소성에 따른 고가라는 점의 문제로 인해 대체재료로써 부상되고 있는 ZnO의 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 투명 전도성 산화물인 ZnO박막과 Al이 도핑된 AZO박막을 저온공정이 가능한 대향 타겟식 스퍼터링 방법(FTS)을 이용하여 산소가스 분압과 Al타겟에 인가되는 Current에 따른 박막의 전기적, 광학적 특성을 파악하여 적용여부에 대해 조사하였다. ZnO박막의 결정성은 유입되는 산소가스의 유량에 따라 증가하며 일정 영역이상에서는 감소하였다. 산소가스 유량이 1.2 sccm일 때 가장 높은 결정성을 얻었다. 또한 산소가스 유량을 1.2 sccm으로 고정시킨 후 Al타겟에 인가되는 Current에 변화를 주었을 때 0.5A에서 가장 낮은 비저항을 얻었다. ZnO박막의 미세구조는 Xray-diffraction method를 이용하여 측정하였고, 산소 분압에 따른 표면조도 분석을 위해 AFM을 사용하였고 Zn와 Oxide bonding의 화학적 분석을 위해 XPS를 이용하여 분석하였다. 또한 전기적 특성은 Hall measurement, 광 투과도는 UV-VIS Spectrometer를 이용하였다.

30 nm thick Ni layers were deposited on a glass substrate by e-beam evaporation. Subsequently, 30 nm or 60 nm ${\alpha}-Si:H$ layers were grown at low temperatures ($<220^{\circ}C$) on the 30 nm Ni/Glass substrate by catalytic CVD (chemical vapor deposition). The sheet resistance, phase, microstructure, depth profile and surface roughness of the $\alpha-Si:H$ layers were examined using a four-point probe, HRXRD (high resolution Xray diffraction), Raman Spectroscopy, FE-SEM (field emission-scanning electron microscopy), TEM (transmission electron microscope) and AES depth profiler. The Ni layers reacted with Si to form NiSi layers with a low sheet resistance of $10{\Omega}/{\Box}$. The crystallinty of the $\alpha-Si:H$ layers on NiSi was up to 60% according to Raman spectroscopy. These results show that both nano-scale NiSi layers and crystalline Si layers can be formed simultaneously on a Ni deposited glass substrate using the proposed low temperature catalytic CVD process.

A precipitation behavior of nano-oxide particle in Fe-$5Y_2O_3$ alloy powders is studied. The mechanically alloyed Fe-$5Y_2O_3$ powders are pressed at $750^{\circ}C$ for 1h, $850^{\circ}C$ for 1h and $1150^{\circ}C$ for 1h, respectively. The results of Xray diffraction pattern analysis indicate that the $Y_2O_3$ diffraction peak disappear after mechanically alloying process, but $Y_2O_3$ and $YFe_2O_4$ complex oxide precipitates peak are observed in the powders pressed at $1150^{\circ}C$. The differential scanning calorimetry study results reveal that the formation of precipitates occur at around $1054^{\circ}C$. Based on the transmission electron microscopy analysis result, the oxide particles with a composition of Y-Fe-O are found in the Fe-$5Y_2O_3$ alloy powders pressed at 1150oC. It is thus conclude that the mechanically alloyed Fe-$5Y_2O_3$ powders have no precipitates and the oxide particles in the powders are formed by a high temperature heat-treatment.

Titanium-iso-propoxide[$Ti(OC_3H_7)_4$]와 Tetra-ethyl-lead $[Pb({C_2}{H_5})_4]$를 사용한 MOCVD법으로 PbTi$O_3$박막을 55$0^{\circ}C$에서 증착하였다. Ar과 $O_2$를 각각 운반 및 반응기체로 사용하였으며, 열처리에 따른 박막의 두께와 굴절지수의 변화, Xtjs 회절 분석, CV 특성 측정등을 행하였다. 열처리에 따른 CV 특성 측정 결과 PbTi$O_3$는 Si기판과 계면 반응을 하는 것으로 생각되며, X선 회절 분석 결과 $PbTiO_3$의 특성 peak들이 관찰되었다. 열처리 시간 및 온도의 증가에 따라 박막의 두께는 감소하고, 굴절지수는 증가하는 경향을 보여 주었다.
