In this thesis, We Fabricated Cu thin films of 1000 $\AA$, 3000 $\AA$, and 6000 $\AA$ thickness on the single crystal sapphire, polycrystal alumina, and amorphous slide glass substrates deposited by electron beam evaporation(EBE) method. We investigated properties of resistivity and adhesion of these Cu thin films under various conditions, substrate temperature(room temperature, 10$0^{\circ}C$, 20$0^{\circ}C$ under vacuum) and annealing temperatures(400 $^{\circ}C$, 600 $^{\circ}C$ for 30 min after the deposition). We found that these adhesion was increased in order of slide glass, sapphire, and alumina. The adhesion of the Cu thin films on alumina was high value about 4 times, compared with that of the Cu thin films on slide glass. We found that these resistivities were decreased with increasing substrate temperature and thin film thickness. The resistivity(2.05 $\mu$Ω\ulcornercm) of the Cu thin films with 6000 $\AA$ thickness at 200 $^{\circ}C$ on the slide glass was low value, compared with that of aluminum(2.66 $\mu$Ω\ulcornercm).

There is a method for offering continuous information by AF track circuits. Magnetic fields are formed by current through rails in the AF track circuit systems. So, the continuous information is received by the magnetic fields on a on-board antenna. Coating materials of spray on rails are researched to decrease defects such as head check, shelling, corrugation, squats and so on in Germany. Currently, a coating method of rail construction is proposed by using the ceramics in Korea. When deciding physical characteristic of the coating material of spray, researches are required about variation of flux density and resistivity by using the coating material of spray. In case that the flux density is much lower than existing value, the information for train control is not transmitted to the on-board antenna. In this paper, inductance on rails is calculated and a model is presented about variation of the magnetic field intensity and resistivity in the AF track circuit. Standard permeability of the coating material of spray is proposed. Also, standard resistivity of the coating material of spray is presented by analyzing short current.

The accurate measurement of soil resistivity and earthing system resistance is fundamental to electrical safety. However, geological and meterological factors can have a considerable effect on the accuracy of conventional measurements and the validity of the measurement methods. This paper presents optimization method of dc resistivity data acquisition system using ERT.

Generally, a point source has been routinely used in the electrical resistivity measurements because of easy installation. If steel-cased wells are used as long electrodes, we can expect the better depth of investigation. However, the resistivity data with long electrodes can not be processed with a conventional inversion algorithm because a long electrode produces the different primary potential distribution compared with the point source. In this study, we proposed a new technique to process the electrical resistivity data with long electrodes by replacing the long electrode with a sequence of point electrodes. Comparing the potentials obtained from the technique with the analytic/numerical solution, we ensure that the proposed technique can be used for the numerical resistivity modeling based on the finite difference or finite element method.

The CSPE cables are used for three years in nuclear power plant. The accelerated thermal aging of chloro sulfonate polyethylene(CSPE) jacket of test cables were carried out for the period equal to 10, 20 and 30 years in air at 90 and $100^{\circ}C$, respectively. The electrical volume resistivity, density, XPS, FE-SEM, EDS and XRF of the accelerated thermal aging of CSPE were measured. The validation of condition monitering method of accelerated thermal aging CSPE was estimated by them. The best validation of condition monitoring method of accelerated aging CSPE is electrical volume resistivity because change thermal of the specimen showed distinction.

Antimony doped tin oxide (ATO) thin films on glass substrate were prepared by the chemical solution deposition (CSD) method, using sol-gel solution synthesized by non-alkoxide precursors and the sol-gel route. The crystallinity and electrical properties of ATO thin films were investigated as a function of the annealing condition (both annealing environments and temperatures), and antimony (Sb) doping concentration. Electrical resistivity, carrier concentration, Hall mobility and optical transmittance of ATO thin films were improved by Sb doping up to 5~8 mol% and annealing in a low vacuum atmosphere, compared to the undoped tin oxide counterpart. 5 mol% Sb doped ATO film annealed at $550^{\circ}C$ in a low vacuum atmosphere showed the highest electrical properties, with electrical resistivity of about $8{\sim}10{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, and optical transmittance of ~85% in the visible range. Our research demonstrates the feasibility of low-cost solution-processed transparent conductive oxide thin films, by controlling the appropriate doping concentration and annealing conditions.

Al:ZnO thin films were deposited using the radio frequency magnetron sputtering technique at various temperatures and sputtering powers. With the increase in the deposition temperature and the decrease in the radio frequency sputtering power, the crystallinity was increased and the surface roughness was decreased, which lead to the decrease in the electrical resistivity of the film. It is also clearly observed that, the intensity of the (002) XRD peak increases with increasing the substrate temperature [1,2]. The electrical resistivity and optical transmittance of the Al:ZnO thin film were analyzed as a function of the post-annealing temperature. It can be seen that with the annealing temperature set at $400^{\circ}C$, the resistivity decreases to a minimum value of $4.1{\times}10^{-3}{\Omega}cm$ and the transmittance increases to a maximum value of 85% of the Al:ZnO thin film.

To verify the reinforcing effect of grouting materials composed of colloid cement and ordinary portland cement on the water leakage region in a small scale dike, we performed a tubecasing method and applied surface electrical resistivity survey including electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) to find resistivity variation before and after grouting. Hydraulic conductivities after grouting show 10 times lower than those of before grouting. These variation indicates that the cement grout blocks the leakage pathway effectively. As the results of dipole-dipole resistivity survey along the dike, resistivity distribution after grouting did not represent noticeable spatial variation in time. Resistivity monitoring results at the dike with vertical electrical sounding (VES) showed that the region of decreasing apparent resistivity was occupied by the grout after grouting. Predicted resistivities from the inversion of ERT data well matched with results of VES at the same regions. From the ERT using check holes to inspect the effect of grouting, we could find that the ERT is quite effective to identify spatially the grout region in a dike.

In Korea, ground water exploration by the electric method as a major prospecting tool has been carried out mainly in alluvial deposits, So it is considered to be important to understand the principle concerning the electrical and hydrological properties of alluvium. Factors which affect on the electrical and hydrological properties of alluvium were investigated. Major elements in ground water exploration are porosity and dermeability for most alluvial deposits with exceptions in some particular areas. Much water yield can be expected where alluvial materials have large porosity and small particle size while large particle size in necessary for good permeability. Problem is to locate the points which have comparatively large porosity and good permeability at a time. It is known that electrical resistivity method is proved useful to solve the above problem. The conclusion is: Localities which have greater alluvium thickness(7 to 10m) and 200 to 500 ohm -m of real resistivity value are suitable for well site in alluvial deposits in Korea where alluvium thickness is comparatively small(less than 10m in generaa) and bedrock formations are mainly composed of granite gneiss and granite.
