Al-Mg-Si/Al hybrid alloy was prepared by Duo-casting and the mechanical behavior was evaluated based on their microstructure and mechanical properties. The hybrid aluminum alloy included the Al-Mg-Si alloy with fine eutectic structure, pure Al with the columnar and equiaxed crystals, and the macro-interface existing between Al-Mg-Si alloy and pure Al. The growth of columnar grains in pure Al occurred from the macro-interface. The tensile strength, 0.2% proof stress and bending strength of the hybrid aluminum alloy were almost similar to those of pure Al, and the elongation was much higher than the Al-Mg-Si alloy. The fracture of the hybrid alloy took place in pure Al side, indicating that the macro-interface was well bonded and the mechanical behavior strongly depends on the limited deformation in pure Al side.

A combined stochastic diffusion and mean-field model is developed for a systematic study of the grain growth in a pure single-phase polycrystalline material. A corresponding Fokker-Planck continuity equation is formulated, and the interplay/competition of stochastic and curvature-driven mechanisms is investigated. Finite difference results show that the stochastic diffusion coefficient has a strong effect on the growth of small grains in the early stage in both two-dimensional columnar and three-dimensional grain systems, and the corresponding growth exponents are ~0.33 and ~0.25, respectively. With the increase in grain size, the deterministic curvature-driven mechanism becomes dominant and the growth exponent is close to 0.5. The transition ranges between these two mechanisms are about 2-26 and 2-15 nm with boundary energy of 0.01-1 J $m^{-2}$ in two- and three-dimensional systems, respectively. The grain size distribution of a three-dimensional system changes dramatically with increasing time, while it changes a little in a two-dimensional system. The grain size distribution from the combined model is consistent with experimental data available.

We prepared four different $MgB_2$ films on $Al_2O_3$ by hybrid physical chemical vapor deposition method with thicknesses ranging from $0.65\;{\mu}m$ to $1.2\;{\mu}m$. X-ray diffraction patterns confirm that all the $MgB_2$ films are c-axis oriented perpendicular to $Al_2O_3$ substrates. The superconducting onset temperature of $MgB_2$ films were between 39.39K and 40.72K. The residual resistivity ratio of the $MgB_2$ films was in the range between 3.13 and 37.3. We measured the angle dependence of critical current density ($J_c$) and resistivity, and determined the upper critical field ($H_{c2}$) from the temperature dependence of the resistivity curves. The anisotropy ratios defined as the ratio of the $H_{c2}$ parallel to the ab-plane to that perpendicular to the ab-plane were in the range of 2.13 to 4.5 and were increased as the temperature was decreased. Some samples showed increase of $J_c$ and decrease of resistivity when a magnetic field in applied parallel to the c-axis. We interpret this angle dependence in terms of enhanced flux pinning due to columnar growth of $MgB_2$ along the c-axis.

Morphological evolution of amorphous carbon film is investigated by molecular dynamics simulation. Here, energetic carbon atoms (75 eV) are deposited on the diamond (001) substrate to find effect of incidence angles. At normal and near-normal incidences ($0^{\circ}{\sim}30^{\circ}$) atomically smooth surfaces are observed during their growth. However, rough surfaces emerge and develop into a ripple structure at grazing incidences ($60^{\circ}{\sim}70^{\circ}$). The different growth modes according to the incidence angles can be described by impact-induced displacements of atoms. Downhill transport along any sloped surfaces is predominant for the case of normal incidence. As the incidence angles become grazing, uphill transport is allowed along the surfaces, which have smaller slopes than incidence angle, so the surface features can be amplified. Impact-induced transport and self-shadowing effect can be responsible to the initial growth of seeding structures at a grazing incidence, which would be grown up as tilted columnar structures in further depositions.

수직보자력이 크고 CoCrPt에 비하여 noise 저감 효과가 큰 것으로 알려진 CoCrPtTa계 합금박막의 수직이방성을 더욱 개선하기 위해 Ti를 우선 증착하였다. 본 연구에서는 Ti 두께 변화에 따른 비교적 높은 수직보자력치를 보였던 $CoCr_{16.2}Pt_{10.8}Ta_4$Ti/glass 시편에서 자기적 특성과 자구형상의 변화를 살펴보았다. 또한 VSM(Vibrating Sample Magnetometer)을 이용하여 M-H loop를 측정하였으며 자구형상은 MFM(Magnetic Force Microscopy)로 관찰하였다. 육방정 Ti가 하지층으로서 우선증착되면 bare glass 직접 증착되는 경우보다 CoCrPtTa 자성층의 수직이방성에 현저한 향상을 가져왔으며 Ti의 두께가 두꺼울수록 c-축 배향성도 개선되었다. MFM 결과에 의하면 Ti두레가 20 nm에서 90 nm로 증가함에 따라 자구형상이 연속적인 stripe type에서 mass type으로 분절된 형태로 변하였다. 이는 Ti의 증착이 비자성 Cr 편석 거동에 영향을 미쳐 자화반전시 인접 columnar grain의 자화벡터들간의 상호교환작용을 억제하는 자기적 분리 효과에 기여했음을 의미한다. 아울러 이와 같은 거동은 Ti가 CoCr계 자성층의 수직이방성을 개선하는데 있어서 형상자기이방성적인 측면에서의 기여가 현저함을 의미하기도 한다.

Recent developments of Laser metal 3D deposition with wire feeding are reviewed which provide an alternative to powder feeding method. The wire feeding direction, angle and position as well as laser power, wire feeding rate, and deposition speed are found to be key parameters to make quality deposition with high throughput. When compared with the powder feed, the wire feed shows higher material efficiency, higher deposition rate, and smoother surface. Large elongated columnar grains which have epitaxial growth across deposit layers are observed in deposit cross sections. The growth direction is parallel to the thermal gradient during the deposit process. Tensile properties are found to be dependent on the direction due to the anisotropic deposit property. A real-time feedback control is demonstrated to be effective to improve the deposition stability.

The yttria stabilized zirconia(YSZ) thin films for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) were fabricated by an electrochemical vapor deposition(EVD) technique using YCl3+ZrCl4+H2O gas system. The YSZ films were deposited under reduced pressure at the temperature of 1000~120$0^{\circ}C$ on the porous alumina substrates. The deposition rate, chemical composition and growth morphology were investigated by SEM, XRD, EDS. The growth rates of the films obeyed a parabolic rate law, representing that the growing process is controlled by an electrochemical transport through the YSZ film. The Y2O3 content of the films was about 10 mol%, equal to the composition of metal chloride reactant gases, approximately. The YSZ films were highly dense, the growing features showed columnar structure and surface morphologies were changed with the EVD conditions.

We electroplated copper-cobalt thin films on a silicon substrate, which had 150 nm thick copper seed layer. The adhesion between the two metallic layers could be increased by utilizing a proper organic additive, pulse plating technique, and high temperature annealing. The thin films exhibited columnar growth of the deposits and enhanced adhesion. This is attributed to the grain growth mechanism introduced by the additive and annealing.

Anatase $TiO_2$ thin films as a photocatalyst were prepared by the D.C reactive magnetron sputtering process. The $TiO_2$ thin films were deposited on Si(100) substrates under the various conditions : oxygen partial pressure, working pressure, substrate temperature, D.C power, and deposition time. The morphology of the TiO$_2$ thin films showed an island structure. At early stages of film growth, amorphous phase formed. However, during the further growth, columnar crystalline $TiO_2$grains evolved. The crystallinity of the thin films depended on the oxygen partial pressure, the working pressure and the D.C. powers.

The effects of pressure during solidification on macro-and micro-structures have been studied in pure aluminium and Al-Si alloys. The application of pressure during solidifcation accelerated both equiaxed and columnar dendritic-growth due to stimulating of equiaxed survival and faster preferential growth of primary dendrites against the parallel direction of heat flow. Burden-Hunt model was modified to express the significant changes of CET behaviours under pressure. A further point to be noted was that greatly fine eutectic silicon flakes ($0.5\;{\times}\;13{\mu}m$) with the decrease of halo layers ($7{\mu}m$) of aluminium riched phases in the periphery of primary silicon particles were observed when pressure was applied during solidification.
