Silicon Nitride $(Si_3N_4)$, which is widely used in a variety of applications, is hard-to-machine due to its high hardness. At high temperature (e.g. above $1000^{\circ}C)$, however, the machinability can be greatly improved. In this work, we used a $CO_2$ laser with a high absorptivity to $Si_3N_4$ of 0.9 to locally heat the surface of a rotating $Si_3N_4$ rod on a lathe. In order to examine the effects of the laser-assisted heating on hardness, an $Si_3N_4$ rod is heated to temperatures from 900 to $1800^{\circ}C$ and is rotated at speeds from 440-900 rpm in experiments. When the rod is naturally cooled to room temperature, we measured the Vickers hardness (Hv); and observed the surface of HAZ using a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) was used for ingredient analysis. Results showed that when heated at $1600^{\circ}C$, the hardness of $Si_3N_4$ decreased from 1500 Hv to 1000 Hv. Also, in order to predict the depth of HAZ, we numerically analyzed the laser-assisted heating of $Si_3N_4$.

Heterostructures has unique and important properties, which may be helpful for finding many potential applications in the field of electronic, thermoelectric, and optoelectronic devices. We synthesized CdTe/Te core-shell heterostructures by vapor-solid process at low temperatures using a quartz tube furnace. Two step vapor-solid processes were employed. First, various tellurium structures such as nanowires, nanorods, nanoneedles, microtubes and microrods were synthesized under various deposition conditions. These tellurium nanostructures were then used as substrates in the second step to synthesize the CdTe/Te core-shell heterostructures. Using this method, various sizes, shapes and types of CdTe/Te core-shell structures were fabricated under a range of conditions. These structures were analysed by scanning electron microscopy, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The vapor phase process at low temperatures appears to be an efficient method for producing a variety of Cd/Te hetero-nanostructures. In addition, the hetero-nanostructures can be tailored to the needs of specific applications by deliberately controlling the synthetic parameters.

Alumina dispersion strengthening copper(ADSC) alloy has great potential for use in many industrial applications such as contact supports, frictional break parts, electrode materials for lead wires, and spot welding with relatively high strength and good conductivity. In this study, we investigated the oxidation behavior of ADSC alloys. These alloys were fabricated in forms of plate and round type samples by surface oxidation reaction using Cu-0.8Al, Cu-0.4Al-0.4Ti, and Cu-0.6Al-0.4Ti(wt%) alloys. The alloys were oxidized at $980^{\circ}C$ for 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h in ambient atmosphere. The microstructure was observed with an optical microscope(OM) and a scanning electron microscope(SEM) equipped with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS). Characterization of alumina was carried out using a 200 kV field-emission transmission electron microscope(TEM). As a result, various oxides including Ti were formed in the oxidation layer, in addition to ${\gamma}$-alumina. The thickness of the oxidation layer increased with Ti addition to the Cu-Al alloy and with the oxidation time. The corrected diffusion equation for the plate and round type samples showed different oxidation layer thickness under the same conditions. Diffusion length of the round type specimen had a value higher than that of its plate counterpart because the oxygen concentration per unit area of the round type specimen was higher than that of the plate type specimen at the same diffusion depth.

North ore deposits of the Dunjeon gold mine is disseminated-stockworks deposits emplaced in Ordovician Dongjeom quartzite. Six types of fluid inclusions are recongnized in the stage I quartz. Among them polyphase inclusions(type-IV-A, B) are predominent in the lower part of stage I quartz crystals whereas liquid and gas inclusions(type I, II) are abundant in the upper part of the same quartz crystals. Liquid $CO_2$-bearing inclusions(type III-A, B)occur as pseudosecondary inclusions. Solid phases in polyphase inclusions are identified by using scanning electron microscopy combined with energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy. The solid phases are as follows; halite, sylvite, hydrophyllite, quartz, muscovite, calcite, ankerite, K-Mg-Fe-Al-Si mineral, Ca-Fe-Si mineral, Mg-Al-Si mineral, two kinds of Fe-mineral and Cu-Fe mineral. Results of freezing and heating experiments of fluid inclusions and identification of daughter minerals in polyphase inclusions in the stage I quartz reveal that ore fluids were high saline system NaCl-KCl-$CaCl_2$-$H_2O$ in the earier stage and then evolved to rather simple system NaCl-$H_2O$ in the later stage, and temporally fluid mixing occured with system $CO_2$-$H_2O$. Homogenization temperatures and salinity of fluid inclusions in the stage I range from 290 to $454^{\circ}C$ and from 0.2 to 54.2 wt. % equivalent to NaCl.

Indium tin oxide (ITO) is an important transparent conducting oxide (TCO). ITO films have been widely used as transparent electrodes in optoelectronic devices such as organic light-emitting devices (OLED) because of their high electrical conductivity and high transmission in the visible wavelength. Finding ways to control ITO micromachining depth is important role in the fabrication and assembly of display field. This study presented the depth control of ITO patterns on glass substrate using a femtosecond laser and slit. In the proposed approach, a gaussian beam was transformed into a quasi-flat top beam by slit. In addition, pattern of square type shaped by slit were fabricated on the surfaces of ITO films using femtosecond laser pulse irradiation, under 1030nm, single pulse. Using femtosecond laser and slit, we selectively controlled forming depth and removed the ITO thin films with thickness 145nm on glass substrates. In particular, we studied the effect of pulse number on the ablation of ITO. Clean removal of the ITO layer was observed when the 6 pulse number at $2.8TW/cm^2$. Furthermore, the morphologies and fabricated depth were characterized using a optical microscope, atomic force microscope (AFM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS).

여러 니켈합금 중 인코넬 600은 원전 가압경수로(PWR)의 튜브 재료로 널리 사용되는 재료이다. 스테인리스강과 비교하여 우수한 내식성과 기계적 특성으로 인해 화학설비, 발전설비, 그리고 해양설비 등과 같은 여러 산업분야에서도 널리 사용되고 있다. 그러나 가압경수로용 증기 발생기의 튜브 재료와 같은 특수 환경에서 예민화에 따른 입계부식 및 입계응력부식 등의 문제가 흔히 보고되고 있다. 이러한 내구성 문제는 설비 및 장비의 수명, 내구성 그리고 안정성 등의 치명적인 영향을 미친다. 따라서 용접, 열처리, 그리고 가공과정에서 발생하는 Inconel 600의 예민화 및 입계부식에 관한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그러나 100시간 이상 장시간 열화된 시편에 대한 예민화 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 장시간 열화된 Inconel 600의 예민화를 평가하기 위해 최대 1,000시간까지 열화를 실시하였으며, 이에 대한 평가방법으로 Double-Loop Electrochemical Potentiokinetic Reactivation(DL-EPR) 시험법을 적용하였다. 본 실험에서 사용된 인코넬 600의 화학성분(wt, %)은 0.01 C, 0.05 Si, 0.14 Mn, 15.3 Cr, 0.5 Cu, 0.015 S, 그리고 나머지는 Ni 이다. 예민화 평가를 위한 등온 열화는 전기열처리로를 이용하여, $550^{\circ}C$와 $650^{\circ}C$에서 최대 1000시간까지 실시하였다. 열화에 따른 미세조직 변화는 scanning electron microscope와 energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy를 이용하여 실시하였다. DL-EPR 실험은 $25^{\circ}C$의 0.1M $H_2SO_4$ + 0.001M KSCN(potasium thiocyanate) 수용액 하에서 실시하였으며, 분극은 OCP로부터 600 mV(SSE vs.)까지 1.67mV/s 주사속도로 forward scan을 실시 후, 동일한 속도로 OCP까지 reverse scan을 실시하였다. Degree Of Sensitization(DOS)값은 anodic scan peak($I_a$) 값과 reverse scan peak($I_r$) 값의 비로 산출하였다. $$i.e.\;DOS=I_r/I_a{\times}100$$. 그 결과, 온도 변수에 따른 Inconel 600강의 예민화 거동은 서로 상이한 경향을 나타내었다. $550^{\circ}C$의 경우, 열화가 진행됨에 따라 DOS값은 급격하게 증가하는 경향을 나타냈다. 반면, $650^{\circ}C$에서는 일정시간 이후부터 Cr 확산 현상에 의한 탈 예민화 현상이 관찰되었다.

Microstructural and mechanical characteristics of Al-6Si-2Cu alloy for engine mount bracket prepared by gravity casting (as-cast) and die-casting (as-diecast) process have been investigated. For the microstructural characterization, the inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) analyses are conducted. For the intermetallic phases, the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) are also conducted with quantitative and qualitative analysis. Micro Vickers hardness and static tensile test are achieved in order to measure mechanical properties of alloys. Secondary dendrite arm spacing (SDAS) of as-cast and as-diecast show 37um and 18um, respectively. A large amount of coarsen eutectic Si, $Al_2Cu$ intermetallic phase and Fe-rich phases are identified in the Al-6Si-2Cu alloy. Mechanical properties of gravity casting alloy are much higher than those of die-casting alloy. Especially, yield strength and elongation of gravity casting alloy show 2 times higher than die-casting alloy. After shot peening, shot peening refined the surface grains and Si particles of the alloys by plastic deformation. The surface hardness value shows that shot peening alloy has higher value than unpeening alloy.

본 연구에서는 옥내 조명으로 널리 사용되고 있는 형광등용 안정기의 화재위험성을 분석하였다. 안정기권선을 실체현미경으로 분석한 결과 용융흔을 다수 발견할 수 있었으나, 육안으로 원인 판정은 불가하였다. $700^{\circ}C$ 이상에서 열열화된 안정기 권선은 연신구조(elongation structure)가 없어지고 구리입자의 확대된 형태만 보였다. 단락 권선의 금속현미경 분석에서 경계면을 중심으로 주상조직 및 보이드 성장의 규칙성이 확인된 것으로 보아 전기적인 단락이 층간에 일어났음이 증명되었다. SEM을 이용한 미세구조 분석에서 용융된 부분이 확인되었다. EDX를 이용한 스펙트라 분석에서 Cu의 구성요소인 CuL 및 CuK liness 뿐만 아니라 OK line이 고르게 관측되고 있다. 이것은 재결합 과정에서 산소가 반응에 참여했음을 의미한다.

The effect of $C_2Cl_6$ for preventing to the surface oxidation and ignition of molten Mg alloy was studied with metallographic analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive spectroscopy. The alloy used for this study was AM100A Mg casting alloy with high strength. In order to investigate the surface protective characteristic of this molten alloy by $C_2Cl_6$ addition, we added them into molten AM100A alloy at $700^{\circ}C$ and then the melts were slowly cooled under a protective atmosphere of air containing Ar gas and $C_2Cl_6$ flux addition. The result found that the surface oxidation and ignition reaction of molten AM100A Mg alloy by adding $C_2Cl_6$ flux was more slowly occurred than that of the only a protective atmosphere of containing Ar gas with increasing time. This result was due to a dense protective film formed containing $MgCl_2$ on surface of molten Mg alloy during casting and solidification. The $MgCl_2$ was formed by a reaction of $C_2Cl_6$ with molten Mg.
