Bi$\_$0.7/Pb$\_$0.3/Sr$_1$Ca$_1$Cu$\_$1.8/Ox thick films were screen printed on magnesia(MgO), silver and yttrium stabilized zirconia (YSZ) substrates and were sintered in a boat with cover to prevent the evaporation. The high-Tc phase increase and the low-Tc phase and Ca$_2$PbO$_4$ decrease with an increase in sintering temperature from 835$^{\circ}C$ to 860$^{\circ}C$. YSZ substrate interact strongly with the oxide resulting in poor superconductor, while the Ag and MgO substrates were satisfactory to make screen printed superconductors. The Bi$\_$0.7/Pb$\_$0.3/Sr$_1$Ca$_1$Cu$\_$1.8/Ox thick films screen printed both on Ag and MgO substrates show high Tc phase of ~85% and Tc of 96K.

Thin-film transistors (TFTs)의 채널층으로 널리 쓰이는 indium-gallium-zinc oxide (IGZO)는 높은 전자 이동도(약 10 cm2/Vs)를 나타내며 유기 발광 다이오드디스플레이(OLED)와 대면적 액정 디스플레이(LCD)에 필수적으로 사용되고 있다. 하지만, 이러한 재료는 우수한 TFT의 채널층의 특성을 가지는 반면, ZnO 기반 재료이기 때문에 소자 구동에서의 안정성은 가장 큰 문제로 남아있다. 따라서 최근, IGZO layer의 특성을 향상시키기 위한 연구가 다양한 방법으로 시도되고 있다. IGZO의 조성비를 조절하여 전기적 특성을 최적화거나 IGZO layer의 조성 중 Ga을 다른 금속 메탈로 대체하는 연구도 이루어지고 있다. 그러나 IGZO에 미량의 도펀트를 첨가하여 박막 특성 변화를 관찰한 연구는 거의 진행되지 않고 있다. 산화물 TFTs의 전기적 특성과 안정성은 산소 함량에 영향을 많이 받는 것으로 알려져 있으며, 더욱이 TFT 채널층으로 쓰이는 IGZO 박막의 고유한 산소 공공은 디바이스 작동 중 열적으로 활성화 되어 이온화 상태가 될 때 소자의 안정성을 저하시키는 것이 문제점으로 지적되고 있다. 그러므로 본 연구에서는 낮은 전기 음성도(1.22)와 표준전극전위(-2.372 V)를 가지며 산소와의 높은 본드 엔탈피 값(719.6 kJ/mol)을 가짐으로써 산소 공공생성을 억제할 것으로 기대되는 yttrium을 IGZO의 도펀트로 도입하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Y-IGZO의 박막 특성 변화를 관찰하고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 magnetron co-sputtering법으로 IGZO 타깃(DC)과 Y2O3 타깃(RF)를 이용하여 기판 가열 없이 동시 방전을 이용해 non-alkali glass 기판 위에 증착 하였다. IGZO 타깃은 DC power 110 W으로 고정하였으며 Y2O3 타깃에는 RF Power를 50 W에서 110 W까지 증가시키면서 Y 도핑량을 조절하였다. Working pressure는 고 순도 Ar을 20 sccm 주입하여 0.7 Pa로 고정하였다. 모든 실험은 $50{\times}50mm$ 기판 위에 총 두께 $50nm{\pm}2$ 박막을 증착 하였으며, 그 함량에 따른 전기적 특성 및 광학적 특성을 살펴보았다. 또한, IGZO 박막 제조 시 박막의 안정화를 위해 열처리과정은 필수적이다. 하지만 본 연구에서는 열처리를 진행하지 않고 Y-IGZO의 안정성 개선 여부를 보기 위하여 20일 동안 상온에서 방치하여 그 전기적 특성변화를 관찰하였다. 나아가 Y-IGZO 채널 층을 갖는 TFT 소자를 제조하여 소자 구동 특성을 관찰 하였다. Y2O3 타깃에 가해지는 RF Power가 70 W 일 때 Y-IGZO박막은 IGZO박막과 비교하여 상대적으로 캐리어 밀도는 낮은 반면 이동도는 높은 최적 특성을 얻을 수 있었다. 상온방치 결과 Y-IGZO박막은 IGZO박막에 비해 전기적 특성 변화 폭이 적었으며 이것은 Y 도펀트에 의한 안정성 개선의 결과로 예상된다. 투과도는 Y 도핑에 의하여 약 1.6 % 정도 상승하였으며 밴드 갭 내에서 결함 준위로 작용하는 산소공공의 억제로 인한 결과로 판단된다.

STATEMENT OF PROBLEM: Zirconium oxide can be a substitute to titanium as implant materials to solve the esthetic problems of dark color in the gingival portion of implant restorations. PURPOSE: This study was performed to define attachment and growth behavior of osteoblast- like cells cultured on grooved surfaces of zirconium oxide and evaluate the genetic effect of zirconium oxide surfaces using the reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). MATERIAL AND METHODS: MC3T3-E1 cells were cultured on (1) commercially pure titanium discs with smooth surface (T group), (2) yttrium-stabilized tetragonal zirconia polycrystal (Y-TZP) with machined surface (ZS group), and (3) Y-TZP with $100{\mu}m$ grooves (ZG group). Cell proliferation activity was evaluated through MTT assay and cell morphology was examined by SEM. The mRNA expression of Runx2, alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, TGF-${\beta}1$, IGF-1, G3PDH in E1 cells were evaluated by RT-PCR. RESULTS: From the MTT assay, after 48 hours of adhesion of MC3T3-E1 cells, the mean optical density value of T group and ZG group significantly increased compared to the ZS group. SEM images of osteoblast-like cells showed that significantly more cells were observed to attach to the grooves and appeared to follow the direction of the grooves. After 24 hours of cell adhesion, more spreading and flattening of cells with active filopodia formation occurred. Results of RT-PCR suggest that T group, ZS group, and ZG group showed comparable osteoblast-specific gene expression after 24 hours of cell incubation. CONCLUSION: Surface topography and material of implants can play an important role in expression of osteoblast phenotype markers. Zirconia ceramic showed comparable biological responses of osteoblast-like cells with titanium during a short-time cell culture period. Also, grooves influence cell spreading and guide the cells to be aligned within surface grooves.

The red emission properties of $Bi^{3+}$ co-doped $Y_2O_3:Eu^{3+}$ prepared by the solid-state reaction was investigated, in order to verify its potential to act as the red emitting phosphor of white LEDs. The emission spectrum consisted of a weak band at 581, 587, 5931 and 599 nm, with maximum sharp peaks occurring at about 611 nm due to the $^5D_0{\rightarrow}^7F_2$ transition of $Eu^{3+}$, while the excitation spectrum exhibited a broad band between 290 and 430 mm with peaks occurring in the range of $310{\sim}390nm$. Also, SEM image of the sample containing 0.43 mol% $H_3BO_3$ and 2.08 mol% $BaCl_2{\cdot}2H_2O$ phosphor particles grew to achieve diameters of $700{\sim}800nm$.

This study was conducted to improve the recycling process of waste fluorescent lamp, and investigate the possibility of using the waste fluorescent lamp glass as a raw material for glass beads, the leaching method of rare earth from the waste phosphor powder, and the possibility of solvent extraction of rare earth from the rare earth leaching solution. The waste phosphor contained 28.9% yttrium oxide, 3.46% cerium oxide, 1.95% europium oxide, 1.76% terbium oxide, and 1.43% lanthanum oxide. As a result of the trial production of glass beads using waste fluorescent lamp glass, it was judged that the production yield and quality were excellent, so that waste fluorescent lamp glass could be used as a raw material for glass beads. The soda roasted waste phosphor was leached in water and thereby the aqueous solution was blown with CO₂ to drop the pH to about 7, Then, Al, Si and residual N₂CO₃ were dissolved, and NaAlCO₃(OH)₂ and SiO₂ were precipitated in the aqueous solution. In the solvent extraction of cyanex272-hydrochloric acid, cyanex272-sulfuric acid, D2EHPA-hydrochloric acid, D2EHPA-sulfuric acid, Ionquest290-hydrochloric acid, Ionquest290-sulfuric acid, p507-hydrochloric acid using xylene as a diluent, the extraction yield of Y, Eu, Ce, La, and Tb are close to 100%. However, in this conditions, the difference in extraction yield for each element, that is, selectivity is 16% or less.

The yttrium-barium-copper-oxide (YBCO) coated conductor, which supplement the fault of the existing superconducting current-limit materials YBCO thin film, bismuth-strontium-calcium-copper-oxide(BSCCO) wire and bulk, has been improved its mechanical weakness and has high index; hence, after quench YBCO coated conductor could limit the fault current effectively because of fast resistance occurrence speed. Furthermore, it has wide applicable area as an current limit material because it shows different resistance occurrence tendency by the thickness and kind of stabilization material sputtered on the superconducting layer. Therefore, many researchers are carrying out the study of application of YBCO coated conductor to superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) for making high quality current limit element, based on resistance type. On the other hand, the study for other type except resistance type has been rarely conducted for the application of YBCO coated conductor to SFCL as an current limit element. Consequently, in this study, YBCO coated conductor with different stabilization layer Cu and Stainless steel, is applied to SFCL using iron core and coil, and examine the many index points as an current limit element, such as current limit characteristic, the tendency of resistance occurrence, response time, the temperature trend for stability.

Complex single buffer composed of yttrium and samarium oxide was deposited on the metallic substrates by MOCVD (metal organic chemical vapor deposition) method using single liquid source. Two different types of the substrates with in-plane textures of about $8{\sim}10$ degree of Ni and $3at.\%W-Ni$ alloy were used. Y(tmhd: 2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-3,5-heptane dionate)$_3$:Sm(tmhd)$_3$ of liquid source was adjusted to 0.4:0.6 to minimize the lattice mismatch between the complex single buffer and the YBCO. The epitaxial growth of $(Y_{x}Sm_{1-x})_{2}O_3$ was achieved at the temperature higher than $500^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ atmosphere. However, it was found that the formation of NiO accelerated with increasing deposition temperature. By supplying $H_{2}O$ vapor, this oxidation of the substrate could be suppressed throughout the deposition temperatures. We could get the epitaxial growth on pure Ni substrate without the formation of NiO. The competitive (222) and (400) growths were observed at the deposition temperatures of $650\~750^{\circ}C$, but the (400) growth became dominant above $800^{\circ}C$. The $(Y_{x}Sm_{1-x})_{2}O_3$-buffered metallic substrates can be used as the buffer for YBCO coated conductor.

In this paper, we present a convenient liquid crystal (LC) molecular alignment method using brush hairs as an alternative to the rubbing process in the LC display industry. Titanium strontium yttrium zirconium oxide (TiSrYZrO) solution was prepared using a sol-gel process, and the TiSrYZrO alignment film production and LC molecular alignment were integrated through a one-step brush coating process. As the curing temperature increased, the LC molecule alignment of the LC cell improved, and the formation of a physical surface anisotropic structure due to the shear stress caused by the movement of the brush hairs on the coating surface led to uniform alignment of the LC molecules. Uniform and homogeneous LC molecular alignment was confirmed through polarizing optical microscopy and pretilt angle measurement. Through thermal oxidation using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the TiSrYZrO thin film well formed of metal oxide was confirmed and verified to have excellent optical transparency. From these results, it is expected that a convenient LC molecular alignment method using brush hairs as an alternative to the rubbing process will be a viable next-generation technology.

최근에 고체산화물 연료전지(SOFC) 연료극 조건에서 우수한 상 안정성, 높은 혼합 전자/이온 전도도 및 황/탄소 저항성 때문에 yttrium-doped strontium titanium oxide (Y-doped SrTiO3)가 대체 연료극 재료로 주목을 받아 왔다. 그러나 Y-doped SrTiO3는 연료 산화에 대해서 기존의 Ni 계열 연료극보다 낮은 전기화학적 활성을 보이는 단점이 있다. 따라서, 효율적인 Y-doped SrTiO3 계열의 연료극 재료를 개발하기 위해서는 Y-doped SrTiO3의 연료극 특성 및 반응성의 이해가 필수적이다. 본 발표에서는 SOFC 연료극에서 수소 산화 반응성을 결정함에 있어 표면 산소 vacancy 형성 에너지의 역할에 대한 spin-polarized DFT (density functional theory) 결과를 발표할 예정이다. 표면 산소 vacancy 형성 에너지는 수소 산화 반응[H2+O (surface) ${\rightarrow}$ OH+OH ${\rightarrow}$ H2O+O (vacancy)]과 밀접한 관계가 있다는 것을 확인하였다. 또한 Y-doped SrTiO3의 표면을 3d-전이금속을(Sc, V, Cr, Fe, Co, Mn, Ni, Cu) 도핑함으로써 표면 산소 vacancy 형성 에너지를 제어할 수 있다는 것을 보였다.
