Diamond films were prepared by a hot filament vapor deposition onto polycrystal silicon nitride substrates. Different kinds of silicon nitride containing CaO and $Fe_{2}O_{3}$ were manufactured to investigate the impurity effect of substrate on the morphology of diamond films and their wear behaviors. Nucleation rates and morphologies of diamond films deposited on various kinds of silicon nitride were compared. The highest nucleation rate was observed in a substrate containing 1% of CaO. Wear tests were performed with a silicon nitride ball on the disk geometry to investigate the tribological behavior of diamond film against silicon nitride. This study demonstrated that different morphologies of diamond film due to substrate impurities produced different wear behavior against silicon nitride.

Fuel Cell is used stacking metal or polymer substrate. This hydro property of substrate surface is very important. Usually, surface property is hydrophilic. The surface oxidation of SUS is investigated through plasma treatments with an atmospheric-pressure dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) for increasing hydrophilic property. The plasma process makes an experiment under various operating conditions of the DBD, which operating conditions are treatment time, plasma gas mixture ratio, the plasma source supply frequency. Two kinds of SUS substrate, SUS-304 and SUS 316L, were used. Discharge frequency has a crucial impact on equipment performance and gas treatment. After the plasma treatment of a SUS plate, highly improved wettability was noted. But, when high oxygen supply, the substrate damaged seriously.

Change of the plasma volume by pulse frequency in a bipolar pulsed DC unbalanced magnetron sputtering was investigated. As increasing the frequency at off duty 10% and at a constant power, the plasma volume was lengthened in vertical direction from the AZO target. When there is an electrically floated substrate, the vertical length of the plasma area was not affected by the pulse frequency. Instead, the diameter of the plasma volume was increased. We found that the temperature rise of a substrate was affected by the pulse frequency, too. As increasing it, the maximum temperature rise of a glass substrate was decreased from $132^{\circ}C\;to\;108^{\circ}C$.

The length extensional vibration mode of a piezoelectric ceramic substrate is used in fabricating the ultra-small size resonators and filters. In general, the three side ratios of the rectangular substrate affect the resonant characteristics of the resonator using its length extensional vibration. In this paper, their relationships are studied. We know that changing the ratio of its length to its width makes possible to change the resonant frequency of the width vibration without degrading the length extensional vibration. And frequency constant for length extensional vibration becomes slightly small as the substrate thickness becomes thin, but it does not change as its length changes. Electro-mechanical coupling factor for length extensional vibration, k$\_$31/ does not change as its length changes within length/width$\geq$4, but it becomes small as its width increases.

TiN coating were deposited onto different WC-Co substrates using arc ion plating (AIP) technique. The structure and morphology for the deposited coating were characterized by x-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The adhesion behavior of the deposited TiN coating was investigated with a conventional scratch test. Effects of WC particle size and Co content on the adhesion strength between the deposited TiN coating and substrate were studied. During the scratch test, the value of critical load was dependent of WC particle size and Co content on substrate. As the WC particle size and Co content on substrate decreased, the critical load increased. The highest critical load, approximately 110N, was obtained at WC particle size of 1$\mu\textrm{m}$ and Co content of 10wt.%.

Electrohydrodynamic jet printing (EHDP) technique is widely used for the direct writing. However, in the existing EHDP method, the printing characteristics are affected by the printing substrate used, and the line width of the printed is determined by the geometry of the nozzle. We propose an EHDP method which is capable of (1) removing the effect from the substrate, and (2) controlling the line width through the ON/OFF control of the each nozzle in the nozzle array. Printing characteristics of our EHDP system were examined and successful ON/OFF control of the nozzle array were demonstrated. By using the proposed EHDP, it is expected that stable meniscus regardless of the substrate and different line widths even using the same nozzle can be achieved.

With the use of differential quadrature method (DQM), forced vibrations and resonance frequency analysis of functionally graded (FG) nano-size beams rested on elastic substrate have been studied utilizing a shear deformation refined beam theory which contains shear deformations influence needless of any correction coefficient. The nano-size beam is exposed to uniformly-type dynamical loads having partial length. The two parameters elastic substrate is consist of linear springs as well as shear coefficient. Gradation of each material property for nano-size beam has been defined in the context of Mori-Tanaka scheme. Governing equations for embedded refined FG nano-size beams exposed to dynamical load have been achieved by utilizing Eringen's nonlocal differential law and Hamilton's rule. Derived equations have solved via DQM based on simply supported-simply supported edge condition. It will be shown that forced vibrations properties and resonance frequency of embedded FG nano-size beam are prominently affected by material gradation, nonlocal field, substrate coefficients and load factors.

Crystalline and micro-structural characteristics of ZnO thin films which were deposited on p-Si(100) with cooling naturally down of pre-heated substrate during RF magnetron sputter deposition, were investigated by XRD and SEM in this paper. The film which was prepared on the substrate which was pre-heated to $400^{\circ}C$ before deposition and then cooled naturally down during deposition, showed the most outstanding c-axis preferred orientation. The ZnO thin film having the best crystalline result were applied to SMR type FBAR device and resonance properties of the device were investigated by network analyzer. It showed that resonance frequency was 2.05 GHz, return loss was -30.64 dB, quality factor was 3169 and electromechanical coupling factor was 0.4 %. This deposition method would be very useful for application of surface acoustic wave filter or film bulk acoustic wave resonator.

To study the effects of $H_2$ gas on AIN insulation thin film, we prepared AIN thin film on Si and GaAs substrate by means of reactive sputtering method using $H_2$ gas as an additives, With treatment conditions of $H_2$ gas AIN thin film shows variable electrical properties such as its crystallization and hysterisis affected to electrical property, As a results, AIN thin film fabricated on Si substrate post-treated with $H_2$ gas for 20 minutes shows much better an insulation property than that of pre-treated, And AIN film treated with $H_2$ gas comparing to non-treated AIN film shows a flat band voltage decreasment. But In GaAs substrate $H_2$ gas does not effect on the flat band voltage.

The buckling of two elastic layers bonded to a semi-infinite substrate under a transverse compressive plane strain is investigated. Incremental deformation theory, which considers the effect of the initial stress on the incremental stress field, is employed to describe the buckling behavior of both two isotropic layers and the semi-infinite substrate. The problem is converted to an eigenvalue-eigenvector case, from which the critical buckling strain and the buckling wavelength are obtained. The results are presented on the effects of the layer geometries and material properties on the buckling behavior.
