  • To understand effects of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in nematic liquid crystal (NLC) on electro-optic characteristic and orientation of the LC, we CNT-doped homogeneously-aligned NLC cells driven by in-plane field have been fabricated. The CNTs were aligned with a LC director from the initial state to below critical ac field, whereas the CNTs disturbed the LC director field above critical ac field. We observed motional textures in the form of vertical stripes in the local area between electrodes, which were associated with a deformation of the LC director orientation. This indicates that CNTs start vibrating three dimensionally with translational motion. Further, the hysterisis studies of voltage-dependent transmittance under dc electric field show that the amount of residual dc, which is related to image sticking problem in liquid crystal displays, is greatly reduced due to ion trapping by CNTS while keeping operating voltage and response time about the same compared to the un-doped LC cell.

  • There arc several important issues in AC PDP researches such as cost reduction, reliability, and good image quality. The properties of MgO layer is thought to be one of the most important (actors that affects the panel reliability through the firing voltage variation. The MgO thin film mainly has (111), (200) and (220) crystal orientation. It is reported that (111)-oriented film helps decreasing the discharge voltage, and (200)-oriented film improves the misfiring on high temperature and the image sticking. In this study, we investigated the relations between the crystal orientation and e-beam evaporation process parameters such asdeposition rate, temperature of substrate, and distance between the target(MgO tablet) and the substrate.

  • To fabricate large grain YBCO bulk superconductors by melt process, Sm123 single crystal with a high melting point are mostly used as seeds. However, it also uses Y123 film deposited on MgO single crystal substrate. This study investigated the growth behavior of the Y123 grain during a melt process when single grain YBCO bulk was used as a seed. Single grain Y123 bulk was grown when the seed size was small. When the seed size was relatively large, multiple grains were grown but the grains were still large. Y123 seed crystal was completely decomposed during high temperature anneal at 1040℃ and new Y123 crystals were nucleated during a slow cooling stage below a peritectic temperature. Thereafter, newly formed Y123 crystals from the seed area are thought to grow into the Y1.8 powder compact. The crystallographic orientations of newly nucleated Y123 grains are independent of the crystallographic orientation of Y123 seed. It is thought that the crystallographic orientation of newly nucleated Y123 crystal can be controlled by using Y211-free Y123 single crystal as a seed of homo-seeding melt growth.

  • The sapphire orientation dependence of the crystallization of ZnO thin films has been studied using real-time synchrotron x-ray scattering. The amorphous ZnO thin films with a 2400-${\AA}$-thick were grown on sapphire(110) and sapphire(001) substrates by radio frequency magnetron sputtering at room temperature. The amorphous ZnO films were crystallization into epitaxial ZnO(002) grains both on the sapphire(110) and on the sapphire(001) substrates. The epitaxial quality, such as mosaic distribution and crystal domain size, of the ZnO grains on the sapphire(110) is high, similar to that of the ZnO grains on the sapphire(001). With increasing the annealing temperature to 600$^{\circ}C$, the mosaic distribution and the crystal domain size of ZnO(002) grains in the film normal direction was improved and decreased, respectively.

  • In this research a time dependent thermal and solutal convection was computationally investigated for the physical vapor transport of the mixture of $Hg_2Cl_2-I_2$ system with for the convective regime from thermal Rayleigh number of $2.16{\times}10^6$ up to $1.7{\times}10^7$ with marching time to a steady state problem. With time marching, the convective cells are decreased for the thermal Rayleigh number of $2.16{\times}10^6$, and increased for the thermal Rayleigh number of $1.7{\times}10^7$. The convective flow structures are found to be essentially time independent on the horizontal orientation of the enclosure with respect to the gravity vector, and on the other hand, time dependent on the vertical orientation of the enclosure with respect to the gravity vector.

  • A finite element analysis model is suggested for analysis of forming process of milli structure whose size is from a few hundreds ${\mu}m$ to a few mm. In this paper, finite element formulation which assemble crystal plasticity theory considering texture development with damage mechanics is developed, since orientation development and growth of micro voids became the primary factors for deformation aspects in large deformation of milli structure. Applying to, extremely, extrusion process of single crystal and extrusion/drawing process of polycrystal milli-size bar, extrusion force, preferred orientation, and damage evolution are examined to understand the characteristics of deformation of milii-size bar.

  • This paper introduces homogeneous liquid crystal (LC) orientations on chemically modulated polystyrene (PS) surfaces using various ion beam (IB) exposure times. Transparent PS was replaced with conventional polyimide material. As a non-contact process, the IB bombardment process induced LC orientation parallel to the IB process. Through x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, it was shown that the chemical compositional changes of the IB-irradiated PS surfaces were determined as a function of IB exposure time. Using this analysis, the optimal IB bombardment condition was determined at an IB exposure time of up to 15 seconds. Moreover, thermal stability on IB-irradiated PS surfaces were carried out which showed that a relatively high IB exposure time induced a thermally stable LC alignment property.

  • NdAl3(BO3)4 have been developed for miniature solid state laser material. Single crystals of NdAl3(BO3)4 were grown by TSSG technique using BaB4O7 flux. The effects of growth conditions such as cooling rate, seed orientation and rotation speed on crystal quality and the morphology were studied. At the cooling rate of 2.4$^{\circ}C$/day and the crystal rotation speed of 30~40rpm with the seed orientation in <201> or <100> directions, transparent and light violet colored crystals in size of 10$\times$15$\times$20㎣ with well developed {010}, {111}, {111}, {021}, {001}, {102}, {112}, {021} faces were obtained. By X-ray diffraction analysis, the space group was determined as C2/c, and the X-ray powder data was obtained.

  • The texture of electrodeposits changes from the orientation that places the lowest energy crystal facets parallel to the substrate under a condition of low ion concentration adjacent to the deposit, to the orientation that places the higher energy crystal facets parallel to the substrate as the ion concentration adjacent to the deposit increases. The electrodeposits have peculiar surface morphologies and microstructures depending on their textures, which in turn may affect their mechanical properties even when they are obtained in a similar electrolysis condition. The electrodeposits undergo recrystallization, when annealed. The recrystallization texture may be different from the deposition texture. These phenomena have been discussed.
