Nanostructured thermoelectric bismuth telluride ($Bi_2Te_3$) powders with various morphologies, such as nanoplates, nanorods, and nanotubes, were prepared by a hydrothermal method based on the reaction between $BiCl_3$, Te, and sodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate ($Na_2$-EDTA) at 150, 180, and $210^{\circ}C$. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED). The effect of reaction temperature on the morphology of the $Bi_2Te_3$ particles was investigated, and the possible mechanism of morphology control was proposed.

Ga-doped $LiFePO_4$ cathode materials were synthesized using a hydrothermal method. The microstructural characteristics and electrochemical performances were systematically investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy, high-resolution X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, charge-discharge cycling, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Among the as-prepared samples, $LiFe_{0.96}Ga_{0.04}PO_4$ demonstrates the best electrochemical properties in terms of discharge capacity, electrochemical reversibility, and cycling performance with an initial discharge capacity of $125mAh\;g^{-1}$ and high lithium ion diffusion coefficient of $1.38{\times}10^{-14}cm^2s^{-1}$ (whereas for $LiFePO_4$, these were $113mAh\;g^{-1}$ and $8.09{\times}10^{-15}cm^2\;s^{-1}$, respectively). The improved electrochemical performance can be attributed to the facilitation of Li+ ion effective diffusion induced by $Ga^{3+}$ substitution.

Catalyst-free graphene nano-sheets without substrates have been synthesized using fullerene and a high direct current (dc) pulse in the spark plasma sintering (SPS) process. Graphene nano-sheets were synthesized directly in the gas phase of carbon atoms which are generated from fullerene at a temperature of $600^{\circ}C$. Characterization has been carried out by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), Raman spectroscopy (Raman), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD).

Epitaxial undoped and Sb-doped si films have been grown on Si(001) substrates at temperatures T between 80 and 750$^{\circ}C$ using energetic Si in ultra-high-vacuum Kr+-ion-beam sputter deposition(IBSD). Critical epitaxial thicknesses te, The average thickness of epitaxial layers, in undoped films were found to range from 8nm at Ts=80$^{\circ}C$ to > 1.2 ${\mu}$m at Ts=300$^{\circ}C$ while Sb incorporation probabilities $\sigma$sb varied from unity at Ts 550$^{\circ}C$ to 0.1 at 750$^{\circ}C$. These te and $\sigma$Sb values are approximately one and one-to-three orders of magnitude, respectively, higher than reported results achieved with molecular-beam epitaxy. Plan-view and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution x-ray diffraction, channeling and axial angular-yield profiles by Rutherford back scattering spectroscopy for epitaxial Si1-x Gex(001) alloy films (0.15$\leq$x$\leq$0.30) demonstrated that the films are of extremely high crystalline quality. critical layer thicknesses hc the film thickness where strain relaxation starts, I these alloys wre found to increase rapidly with decreasing growth temperature. For Si0.70 Ge0.30, hc ranged from 35nm at Ts=550$^{\circ}C$ to 650nm at 350$^{\circ}C$ compared to an equilibrium value of 8nm.

Digital 지진계와 고성능 지오폰을 사용해서 고해상 지진파 탐사를 수행한다. 미소단층, 파쇄대, 균열대, 공동과 같은 지하구조를 탐지하기 위해서는 탐지목표물의 수평, 수직 고해상도를 올리는 것이 중요하다. 즉 Nyquist주파수는 기록지의 최고 주파수보다 커야 하고 또한 최고파수는 Nyquist파수($1/2{\Delta}x$)를 초과해서는 안된다. 최고 주파수는 저주파 통과 필터 혹은 Anit-alias 필터를 이용해서 제거되고 최고파수는 지오폰 간격 ${\Delta}x$를 조절해서 제외시킬 수 있다. 공통 발파 거리와 Single-end Shooting 방법에 의해서 얻어진 지진기록지는 적절한 최적간격, 저주파와 고주파 통과 필터, 그리고 지오폰 간격(0.5m~2m)을 이용해서 고해상도를 얻는다. 터널 상부 지표에서 Single-end Shooting에 의해서 획득한 반사지진파 기록지는 쌍곡선형의 Fraunhofer회절이 생기는 것을 볼 수 있다. 공통발파 기록에서는 터널을 통과한 초동이 낮은 진폭으로 감쇠되었고 공동에 의한 반사파는 지연된 단순 충격 파형(Single Impulsive Wave-form)임을 보여 준다. Cherveny와 Psencik(1983)의 Ray Method에 의한 이론적 결과도 실측 결과와 유사함을 알 수 있다. 즉 터널을 통과한 지진파는 지연되었고 반사된 파도 낮은 속도때문에 지연되어서 나오나 공동과 암석의 큰 음향 임피던스(Acoustic Impedance)는 강한 단순 충격파형을 보여주었다.

고효율 양자점 태양전지를 위하여 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막 내에 Si 양자점을 형성한 박막을 제작하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막은 Si과 C target을 co-sputtering하여 증착하였다. C target의 RF power를 변화시켜 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막의 조성비를 조절하였으며, 조성비는 auger electron spectroscopy로 정량적으로 측정하였다. 이 박막들을 질소 분위기에서 후 열처리하여 high resolution transmittance electron microscopy로 확인한 결과 박막 내에 2~10nm 크기의 양자점이 형성된 것을 관측할 수 있었다. 이 양자점은 transmittance electron diffraction과 grazing incident X-ray diffraction을 통해 Si 양자점과 SiC 양자점이 형성되었음을 알 수 있었다. Raman 측정 결과에서는 후 열처리한 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막의 조성비가 증가할 수록 crystal Si peak의 shift가 증가함을 알 수 있었고, 이를 통해 양자점의 크기도 함께 계산할 수 있었다. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy을 통해 후 열처리한 Si1-xCx 박막의 양자점의 형성 원인을 추정하였다.

Crystal structure of $(Ba_{1-x}La_x)[Mg_{(1+x)/3}Nb_{(2-x)/3}]O_3$ (BLMN) ceramics with $0{\leq}x{\leq}1$ was investigated using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). When La content, x, is above 0.1, the 1:2 ordered hexagonal structure found in $Ba(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ (BMN) was transformed into 1:1 ordered cubic structure. The 1:1 ordered cubic structure was maintained up to x=0.7. However, when x exceeded 0.7, BLMN was transformed 1:1 ordered structure which has cation displacement and in-phase and anti-phase tilt of octahedra.

In this study, Fe-Ni bimetallic catalyst supported on kaolin is prepared by a wet impregnation method. The effects of mass of kaolin support, pre-calcination time, pre-calcination temperature and stirring speed on catalyst yields are examined. Then, the optimal supported Fe-Ni catalyst is utilised to produce multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) using catalytic chemical vapour deposition (CCVD) method. The catalysts and MWCNTs prepared using the optimal conditions are characterized using high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM), high-resolution scanning electron microscope (HRSEM), electron diffraction spectrometer (EDS), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The XRD/EDS patterns of the prepared catalyst confirm the formation of a purely crystalline ternary oxide ($NiFe_2O_4$). The statistical analysis of the variance demonstrates that the combined effects of the reaction temperature and acetylene flow rate predominantly influenced the MWCNT yield. The $N_2$ adsorption (BET) and TGA analyses reveal high surface areas and thermally stable MWCNTs. The HRTEM/HRSEM micrographs confirm the formation of tangled MWCNTs with a particle size of less than 62 nm. The XRD patterns of the MWCNTs reveal the formation of a typical graphitized carbon. This study establishes the production of MWCNTs from a bi-metallic catalyst supported on kaolin.

Nano-sized cobalt (II) oxide nanoparticles with a high crystallinity were synthesized using thermolysis of a $Co^{2+}$-oleate precursor at 310$^{\circ}C$. The phase and morphology of as-prepared cobalt oxide nanoparticles were characterized using X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller surface area measurements. The cobalt oxide nanoparticles were found to be spherical nanoclusters with an average diameter of approximately 200 nm, consisting of tiny nanocrystals (10-20 nm). Furthermore, the Li electroactivites of the cobalt oxide nanoparticles were investigated using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic cycling. The cobalt oxide nanoparticles could deliver high capacities over 420 mA h $g^{-1}$ at a C/5 current rate.
