m-Aramid dissolved in N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc), were coagulated in different coagulants such as water, methanol, ethanol, propanol and butanol. Various concentrations and temperatures of the coagulants were also used to evaluate dyeing properties of coagulated m-aramid films. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was employed to investigate the surface morphology of m-aramid films. Wide angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD) was conducted in order to measure crystallinity change of mcaramid fibers and films. WAXD patterns showed that crystallinity of m-aramid fibers was reduced after film formation. In addition, color depth (K/S value) was measured and the results revealed that the film coagulated in water possessed fairly enhanced color depth.

Fluorine-doped $SnO_2$ thin films were deposited on soda-lime glass substrates by reactive DC magnetron sputtering method. Crystallinity as well as electrical and optical properties of $SnO_2$ : F thin film were investigated as the variations of deposition conditions such as substrate temperature, DC Power, $O_2$ gas pressure, $SF_6$ gas pressure. $SnO_2$ : F thin film deposited with 5% $SF_6$ gas pressure showed electrical resistivities of $2.5\times10^{-3}$cm with the average optical transparency (about 80%) These electrical and optical properties were found to be related to the crystallinity of $SnO_2$ : F thin films.

Poly-Si films have been prepared by solid phase crystallization of LPCVD(low-pressure CVD) amorphous silicon. The crystallinity of poly-Si films has been derived from UV reflectance spectrum and lies in the range between 70% and 80% . From XRD measurement the peak at 28.2$^{\circ}$from (111) plane is dominantly detected in the SPC poly-Si films, The average grain size of poly-Si film is determined by the image of SEM and varies from 4000 $\AA$ to 8000$\AA$. The electrical conductivity of as-deposited amorphous silicon film is about 2.5$\times$10$^{-7}$ ($\Omega$.cm)$^{-1}$ , and 3~4$\times$10$^{-6}$ ($\Omega$.cm)$^{-1}$ of room temperature conductivity is the SPC poly-Si films. The conductivity activation energies are 0.5~0.6 eV or the 500$\AA$-thick poly-Si films.

Unstabilized low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films and films formulated with hindered amine light stabilizer (HALS) were exposed to UV-radiation; and the physicochemical changes during photooxidation processes have been investigated using tensile, FTIR spectre-photometric and thermal analytical (DSC) techniques. The dependence of tensile properties (elongation- and stress-at-break), carboxyl index and heat of fusion on UV-irradiation time have been discussed. The use of HALS is found to be effective in maintaining the UV-mechanical properties of the LDPE films. The experimental results showed that there exists no correlation between mechanical properties and carbonyl index, whereas crystallinity correlates well with carbonyl index in unstabilized and stabilized films for irradiation times greater than 100 h. The rate of formation of carbonyl groups is found to be dependent on UV exposure time. Crystallinity of the film samples is strongly influenced by both exposure time and presence of HALS.

On the soft carbon made from petroleum coke, it was found that the graphitization began at around 2,000$^{\circ}C and crystallite diameters were almost saturated at 2,400$^{\circ}C., and that the molecular planes were difficult to arrange into an ideal graphite lattice in spite of the saturation of crystallinity by heat treatment temperature. On the hard carbon made from cross-linked thermosetting plastics, phenol-formaldehyde filler and phenol-benzaldehyde binder, it was very difficult to rotate the molecular planes into a regular directional arrangement and into a consecutive order corresponding to the large graphite crystals. In addition to the above mentioned crystallinity, it was also determined in relation to electric conductivity, resistivity, hardness and apparent density of carbons.

Colored tantalum oxy-nitride (TaON) and tantalum nitride ($Ta_{3}N_{5}$) were synthesized by ammonolysis. Oxygen deficient tantalum oxides ($TaO_{1.7}$) were produced by a titration process, using a tantalum chloride ($TaCl_5$) precursor. The stirring speed and the amount of $NH_{4}OH$ were important factors for controling the crystallinity of tantalum oxides. The high crystallinity of tantalum oxides improved the degree of nitridation which was related to the color value. Synthesized powders were characterized by XRD, SEM, TEM and Colorimeter.

Hot filament-assisted CVD was carried out to deposit diamond films on Si(100) substrate at 90$0^{\circ}C$ using a 1% CH4-H2 mixture gas. Deposition was made at various conditions of mass flow rate of the feed gas (30~1000 sccm), pressure (2.5~300 Torr), and filament-substrate distance (4~15 mm), and the deposited films were characterized by SEM, XRD, and Raman spectroscopy. As the flow rate increases, the growth rate also increased but the crystallinity of the film was degraded. A longer filament-substrate distance simply caused both the growth rate and the crystallinity to become poorer. On the other hand, the pressure variation resulted in a maximum growth rate of 2.6 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$/hr at 10 Torr and the best film quality around 50 Torr, exhibiting an optimum condition. The observed trends were interpreted in terms of the flow velocity-dependent pyrolysis reaction efficiency and mass transport through the boundary layer.

In this paper, the optical properties of boron ion implanted GaAs were investigated by photoluminescence(PL) measurements. The implantations were preformed at room temperature with the energy of 150 eV. The range of implanted dose was $10^{12}~10^{15} ions/cm^2$. The boron implanted samples were annealed between $450^{\circ}C$ and $800^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes. The crystallinity of low dosed samples were increased with increasing annealing temperature up to $700^{\circ}C$ while that of the high dosed($10^{15} ions/cm^2$) was almost same. From the samples with dose of $10^{14}~10^{15} ions/cm^2$, two emission bands were observed at 1.438 eV (B1) and 1.459 eV (B2) after the thermal treatment. These emission bands seems to be attributed to the $B_{Ga}$-defect complex.

In this study, the effect of the crystallinity of polyimide (Pl) and the birefringence of the nematic liquid crystal (NLC) for pretilt angle generation on rubbed PI surface containing thiophenylene moieties has been demonstrated. The induced optical retardation produced in rubbed Pl surfaces decreases on increasing the imidization temperature. We suggest that the pretilt angle of 4-cyano-4'-n-pentybiphenyl (5CB) depends on the crystallinity of the rubbed Pl. The order of pretilt angle in NLCs is 5CB>PCH5$\geq$CCH5 at rubbing strength(RS)=150mm (medium rubbing) on rubbed PI surfaces. We suggest that on rubbed Pl surfaces the pretilt angle increases with increasing number of phenylrings in the NLC core.

Diamond thin films were deposited on Si substrate using $CH_4 and H_2$mixed gas by RF plasma CVD. Prior to deposition, the substrate surface was mechanically scratched with the diamond paste of $3{\mu}m$ to improve the density of nucleation sites. The microstructure of diamond films deposited with methane(0.5%~2%) at the reaction pressure ranging from 20 torr to 50torrr were studied by a scanning electron microscope. It was observed in the deposited diamond films that the nucleation density decreased and crystallinity increased with decreasing the methane concentration. However, the nucleation density and crystallinity were decreased with decreasing the process pressure.
