The stochiometric composition of AgGaS$_2$ polycrystal source materials for the AgGaS$_2$/GaAs epilayer was prepared from horizontal furnace. From the extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns it was found that the polycrystal AgGaS$_2$ has tetragonal structure of which lattice constant a$\sub$0/ and c$\sub$0/ were 5.756 ${\AA}$ and 10.305 ${\AA}$, respectively. AgGaS$_2$/GaAs epilayer was deposited on throughly etched GaAs(100) substrate from mixed crystal AgGaS$_2$ by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (100) system. The source and substrate temperature were 590$^{\circ}C$ and 440$^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystallinity of the grown AgGaS$_2$/GaAs epilayer was investigated by the DCRC (double crystal X-ray diffraction rocking curve). The optical energy gaps were found to be 2.61 eV for AgGaS$_2$/GaAs epilayer at room temperature. The temperature dependence of the photocurrent peak energy is well explained by the Varshni equation, then the constants in the Varshni equation are given by ${\alpha}$ : 8.695${\times}$10$\^$-4/ eV/K, and ${\beta}$ = 332 K. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light of the AgGaS$_2$/GaAs epilayer, we have found that crystal field splitting ΔCr was 0.28 eV at 20 K. From the PL spectra at 20 K, the peaks corresponding to free and bound excitons and a broad emission band due to D-A pain are identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.2676 eV and 0.2430 eV and the dissociation energy of the bound excitons to be 0.4695 eV.

The stochiometric composition of $AgGaS_2$ polycrystal source materials for the $AgGaS_2/GaAs$ epilayer was prepared from horizontal furnace. From the extrapolation method of X-ray diffraction patterns it was found that the polycrystal $AgGaS_2$ has tetragonal structure of which lattice constant $a_0$ and $c_0$ were 5.756 ${\AA}$ and 10.305 ${\AA}$, respectively. $AgGaS_2/GaAs$ epilayer was deposited on throughly etched GaAs (100) substrate from mixed crystal $AgGaS_2$ by the Hot Wall Epitaxy (HWE) system. The source and substrate temperature were $590^{\circ}C$ and $440^{\circ}C$ respectively. The crystallinity of the grown $AgGaS_2/GaAs$ epilayer was investigated by the DCRC (double crystal X-ray diffraction rocking curve). The optical energy gaps were found to be 2.61 eV for $AgGaS_2/GaAs$ epilayer at room temperature. The temperature dependence of the photocurrent peak energy is well explained by the Varshni equation, then the constants in the Varshni equation are given by ${\alpha}=8.695{\times}10^{-4}eV/K$, and $\beta$=332 K. From the photocurrent spectra by illumination of polarized light of the $AgGaS_2/GaAs$ epilayer, we have found that crystal field splitting $\Delta$ Cr was 0.28 eV at 20 K. From the PL spectra at 20 K, the peaks corresponding to free and bound excitons and a broad emission band due to D-A pairs are identified. The binding energy of the free excitons are determined to be 0.2676 eV and 0.2430 eV and the dissociation energy of the bound excitons to be 0.4695 eV.

For the past a few years, we have intensively researched the printable inorganic conductors and ZnO-based amorphous oxide semiconductors (AOSs) for thin-film transistors. For printable conductor materials, we have focused on the aqueous Ag and Cu ink which possess a variety of advantages, comparing with the conventional metal inks based on organic solvent system. The aqueous Ag ink was designed to achieve the long-term dispersion stability using a specific polymer which can act as a dispersant and capping agent, and the aqueous Cu ink was carefully formulated to endow the oxidation stability in air and even aqueous solvent system. The both inks were successfully printed onto either polymer or glass substrate, exhibiting the superior conductivity comparable to that of bulk one. For printable ZnO-based AOSs, we have researched the noble way to resolve the critical problem, a high processing-temperature above $400^{\circ}C$, and recently discovered that Ga doping in ZnO-based AOSs promotes the formation of oxide lattice structures with oxygen vacancies at low annealing-temperatures, which is essential for acceptable thin-film transistor performance. The mobility dependence on annealing temperature and AOS composition was analyzed, and the chemical role of Ga are clarified, as are requirements for solution-processed, low-temperature annealed AOSs.

The magnetic and other physical characteristics of $Mn_xSi_{1-x}Te$ have been investigated by electron magnetic resonance (EMR), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and other experiments. $Mn_xSi_{1-x}Te$ is found to have corundum structure for manganese contents up to 10% and also to be ferromagnetic for temperatures below 80 K. While ferromagnetic resonance signal coexists with the usual paramagnetic resonance signal, invariance of the g-factor inferred from the electron paramagnetic resonance signals throughout all temperature ranges clearly confirms that the manganese ions are in the electronic 3d5 state. The temperature dependence of EMR line-width is the same as other diluted magnetic semiconductors. From the EMR signals relaxation times $T_2$ and $T_1$ of $Mn_xSi_{1-x}Te$ compounds are estimated to be about $4.4{\times}10^{-10}s$ and $9.3{\times}10^{-8}s$ respectively and are found to vary slightly with temperature or composition change. Exchange narrowing of the EMR line-width becomes dominant for the sample in which the substitution ratio, x = 30%. For one sample, in which x = 0.5%, spin glass-like behavior is indicated by EMR signals for temperatures lower than 60 K. This behavior may authentic for samples within a certain range of x.

Lead-free ferroelectric ceramics are widely researched today for industrial applications as sensors, actuators and transducers. Since $Pb(Zr_aTi_{1-a})O_3$-(PZT) has high Curie temperature($T_C$), high piezoelectric properties near its morphotropic phase boundary(MPB) composition and small temperature dependence electrical behavior, it has been used to commercial materials for wide temperature range and different application fields. According to the tolerance factor concept, since the $Bi^{3+}$ cation with 12-fold coordinate has a smaller ionic radius than 12-fold coordinate $Pb^{2+}$, most bismuth based perovskites possess a smaller tolerance factor. Therefore, MPBs with a higher $T_C$ may be expected in $Bi(Me^{3+})O_3PbTiO_3$ solid solutions. As in lead based perovskite systems, it is clear that we need to explore more materials in simple or complex bismuth based MPB systems. The objective of this study is to investigate the $Bi(Ni_{1_a}X_a)O_3-PbTiO_3(X=Ti^{4+},\;Nb^{5+})$ perovskite solid-solution. For improving the electronic conduction problem, the magnesium and manganese modified system was also studied.

Theory-based models and high performance simulations are briefly reviewed starting with atomistic methods, such as Electronic Structure calculations, Molecular Dynamics, and Monte Carlo, continuing with meso-scale methods, such as Dislocation Dynamics and Phase Field, and ending with continuum methods that include Finite Element and Finite Volume. Special attention is paid to relating thermo-mechanical and chemical properties of the fuel to reactor parameters. By inserting atomistic models of point defects into continuum thermo-chemical calculations, a model of oxygen diffusivity in $UO_{2+x}$ is developed and used to predict point defect concentrations, oxygen diffusivity, and fuel stoichiometry at various temperatures and oxygen pressures. The simulations of coupled heat transfer and species diffusion demonstrate that including the dependence of thermal conductivity and density on composition can lead to changes in the calculated centerline temperature and thermal expansion displacements that exceed 5%. A review of advanced nuclear fuel performance codes reveals that the many codes are too dedicated to specific fuel forms and make excessive use of empirical correlations in describing properties of materials. The paper ends with a review of international collaborations and a list of lessons learned that includes the importance of education in creating a large pool of experts to cover all necessary theoretical, experimental, and computational tasks.

DCFC는 가스 터빈이나 엔진과 달리 탄소를 사용하여 전기화학반응을 통해 직접 전기를 생산하는 연료전지이며, 주요 특징으로 기존의 발전설비 보다 높은 효율과 낮은 배기 배출물을 발생한다. 본 연구에서는 간단한 열역학 평형 해석을 통해 CO와 $CO_2$가 이론 기전력에 미치는 영향을 확인하였으며, 2차원 CFD 해석 방법을 이용하여 온도에 따른 반응 생성물 변화를 살펴보았다. 그 결과, CO 생성 반응(Boudouard 반응)을 동시에 고려한 이론 기전력 값은 $CO_2$ 생성 반응만 고려한 값(약 1.02 V)보다 크며, 특히 온도가 증가할수록 그 값이 증가함을 보여주었다. 2차원 수치해석 결과를 통하여서 Boudouard 반응이 고온으로 갈수록 중요하며, 비활성 기체로 인하여 Boudouard 반응이 지연됨을 확인하였다.

Aluminium oxide (Al2O3) films have been investigated for many applications such as insulating materials, hard coatings, and diffusion barriers due to their attractive electrical and mechanical properties. In recent years, application of Al2O3 films for dielectric materials in integrated circuits as gates and capacitors has attracted much attention. Various deposition techniques such as sol-gel, metalorganic decomposition (MOD), sputtering, evaporation, metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD), and pulsed laser ablation have been used to fabricate Al2O3 thin films. Among these techniques, reactive sputtering has been widely used due to its high deposition rate and easy control of film composition. It has been also reported that the sputtered Al2O3 films exhibit superior chemical stability and mechanical strength compared to the films fabricated by other processes. In this study, Al2O3 thin films were deposited on Pt/Ti/SiO/Si2 and Si substrates by DC reactive sputtering at room temperature with variation of the Ar/O2 ratio in sputtering ambient. Crystalline phase of the reactively sputtered films was characterized using X-ray diffractometry and the surface morphology of the films was observed with Scanning election microscopy. Effects of Th Ar/O2 ratio characteristics of Al2O3 films were investigated with emphasis on the thickness dependence of the dielectric properties. Correlation between the dielectric properties and the microstructure was also studied

Synthesis of polymers with controlled thermosensitive properties was carried out by conventional radical copolymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) with N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) taken as a hydrophilic comonomer. Lower activity of NVP rather than NIPAAm was revealed by gravimetric and $^1$H NMR analysis. Thermosensitive properties of the copolymers were investigated. It was found that aqueous solutions of the copolymers undergo thermo-induced phase transition and become opaque, precipitate or gel with heating. After formation of the gels their significant contraction was observed at storage. Swelling degree and amount of expelled water were measured in dependence on the copolymer composition, temperature and ionic strength of environment medium and concentration of the solution. It was determined that in collapsed state gels exhibit quite high water content. According to physico-chemical properties of the copolymers observed they could be suitable for biomedical application as an injectable implant material.
