The crystal structure of ZnS fabricated by gas-liquid phase reaction was refined by the Rietveld program using X-ray diffraction data. The R-weighted pattern (R$\sub$wp/) of ZnS powder was 10.85%. The fraction of HCP phase was closely related with extra amount of H$_2$S gas. The lattice parameters and crystalline size were changed by the relative ratio of multi-phase. The luminescence property of ZnS:Cu, Al green phosphors prepared by conventional methods was good in the range of 91∼94% and 150∼190${\AA}$, respectively. According to the maximum entropy electron density(MEED) methods, any defects in (001) plane of cubic phase were not found. We suggest that both the Rietveld and maximum entropy density methods may be useful tools for studying luminescence mechanism of other phosphors materials.

대표적인 신장유동의 하나인 방사공정을 통해 액정고분자를 포함한 블렌드 섬유의 신장유동의 특성과 형구학적 성질간의 관계를 고찰하였다. 신장유동에 의해 분산상인 액정 고분자는 미세섬유구조를 바뀌었고 압출온도가 높을수록 더욱 발달된 미세섬유구조를 가졌 다. 이러한 분산상의 미세구조 변화에 대한 설명은 블렌드의 신장유동특성을 나타내는 신장 점도비로서 가능하였다. 즉, 압출온도가 높을수록 방사사선에서 신장변형률속도가 z지고 신 장점도비가 작아지므로 분산상의 신장변형이 더 많이 되었다고 판단된다. 방사이전의블렌드 내의 분산상은 압출온도를달리하여도 모두 구형으로 존재함을 발견하였고 이사실로부터 분 산상의 미세섬유구조는 방사사선에서의 신장변형에 의해 주로 이루어졌음을 확인하였다.

This experimental study was carried out to investigate the solidification characteristics of polystyrene added styronaphthalene pattern materials using various castability test methods. The styronaphthalene showed an excellent filling capacity and shaping behavior having about 0.2 mm meniscus radius. The shell thickness of styronaphthalene showing smooth wall at the solid/liquid interface increased with the increasing of polystyrene addition. The solidification microstructure of styronaphthalene showed a typical thin ribbon reinforced composite structure, which has fibrous amorphous skeleton of polystyrene and crystalline naphthalene. From the results of this study, it was found that the polystyrene added styronaphthalene showed a precision shaping behavior as disposable pattern material under the atmospheric condition.

YBa$_2$Cu$_3$$O_{7-x}$ thin films for coated conductor application were deposited on a MgO single crystalline substrate by a metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) system of a vertical type using a single liquid source. The film uniformity was enhanced by controlling the gas shower head structure, the distance between the shower head and substrate, and the rotation of the substrate. The source mole ratio of Y(thd)$_3$: Ba(thd)$_2$: Cu(thd)$_2$ was changed for obtaining stoichiometric film. The phase formation, crystal orientation, surface morphology and film composition were investigated with different source mole ratios, and the critical temperature (T$_{c}$) was measured.red.

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) / polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) piezoelectric composite films for nanogenerator devices were fabricated by spray coating method. When the CNT/PVDF mixture solution passes through the spray nozzle with small diameter by the compressed nitrogen gas, electric charges are generated in the liquid by a triboelectric effect. Then randomly distributed ${\beta}$ phase PVDF film could be re-oriented by the electric field resulting from the accumulated electrical charges, and might be resulted in extremely one-directionally aligned ${\beta}$ phase PVDF film without additional electric field for poling. X-ray diffraction patterns were used to investigate crystal structure of the CNT/PVDF composite films. It was confirmed that they revealed extremely large portion of the ${\beta}$ phase PVDF crystalline in the film. Therefore we could obtain the poled CNT/PVDF piezoelectric composite films by the spray coating method without additional poling process.

Photoresponsive side chain polymers containing aminonitro azobenzene were synthesized for studying optically induced birefringence. Four different copolymers were prepared using methacrylate, a-methylstyrene, and itaconate monomer. Two copolymers are totally amorphous and the other two are liquid crystalline in nature. Trans-to-cis photoisomerization was observed under the exposure of UV light with UV-VIS absorption spectroscopy. Reorientation of polar azobenzene molecules induced optical anisotropy under a linearly polarized light at 532 nm. The dynamic parameters of optically induced birefringence let us compare the effect of polymeric structure on the rate of growth and decay of the birefringence. Besides the effect of glass transition temperature on the dynamics of photoinduced birefringence, we focused our interests on the geometrical hindrance of polar azobenzene molecules and cooperative motion of environmental mesogenic molecules in the vicinity of polar azobenzene moiety.

Binary system of water and polyoxyethylene dodecyl ether, $C_{12}H_{25}(OCH_2CH_2)nOH$, have been studied by $^1H$ NMR techniques. For n=5($C_{12}EO_5$) and n=8($C_{12}EO_8$), the self-diffusion coefficients of nonionic surfactants in the isotropic phase($L_1$) have been measured by using pulsed field gradient technique for a range of temperature and concentrations. In addition the line widths of the different proton signals have been monitored, and samples of some liquid crystalline characteristic were also studied. Dramatic Broadening of the methylene signals of the alkyl($C_{12}H_{25}$) chain is observed as the hexagonal liquid crystalline phase is approached in the $C_{12}EO_5-$water system, while only small broadening is observed in the $C_{12}EO_8-$water system. It was shown that there was a growth of $C_{12}EO_5$ micelles to rods with increasing concentrations, while the $C_{12}EO_8-$ micelles at low temperature remain small in the concentration range. The self-diffusion coefficients of the surfactants decrease rapidly with increasing concentration until a minimum is reached after which there is slow increase. The location of the minimum point occurs at lower concentrations the temperature is close to the cloud point, where the system separate into two isotropic phase. In the line width studies, broadening is found at a certain temperature interval when the concentration is increased in the $C_{12}EO_5$ system. The results indicate that the surfactant aggregates grow in size at the cloud point is approached. The aggregates seem to be flexible and probably not to be of a definite shape close to the cloud point. In the $C_{12}EO_8$ system, the micelles are much less affected by an increase in temperature and micellar growth can't be unambiguously established. The methylene signals of the ethylene oxide moieties consistantly show narrower $^1H$ signals, showing that in the aggregates they are less ordered than the chain methylenes. The various changes in aggregate size and shape are correlated with the stability ranges of the isotropic and liquid crystalline phases according to phase diagrams from the literature. Both aggregate size and phase structure are in qualitative agreement with concentration based on the effective shape of the molecules at different temperature and concentration.

Ga K-edge EXAFS spectra of PbO-Ga2O3 glasses were recorded at liquid nitrogen temperature and analyz-ed in order to quantitatively understand the medium-range-order arrangement around gallium in the glasses. The second peak was generated from a backscattering of the neighbor balliums and the Ga-Ga distance is ~3.13 A with Ga coordination number of ~2.7 Therefore GaO4 tetrahedra are connected through the cor-ner~sharing mode and form their own clusters made of the tetrahedra sharing more than 3 corners while some chains or rings are also present. These connection schemes of the GaO4 tetrahedra are believed to form the substantial part of the network structure.

The $Cu_2O/TiO_2$ inverse opal heterojunction arrays were developed by electrochemical deposition of $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles on $TiO_2$ inverse opal arrays. The $Cu_2O$ nanoparticles completely filled the inner pores of $TiO_2$ inverse opal film (prepared by liquid phase deposition with an average thickness of 400 nm) and covered the entire area; exhibiting high crystalline properties of anatase and cubic phase from $TiO_2$ and $Cu_2O$, respectively. From asymmetric current-voltage profile, it was noticeable that a heterojunction was well formed for charge transport from $Cu_2O$ to $TiO_2$ film resulting from the enhanced charge separation yield. In addition, increased photocurrent of 0.19 $mA/cm^2$ (versus 0.08 $mA/cm^2$ under dark condition) was obtained at -0.35 V from the heterojunction structure in the 0.5M $Na_2SO_4$ solution.

In this letter, we report that vertically well-aligned ZnO nanowires were grown on GaN epilayers and c-plane sapphire via a vapor-liquid-solid process by introducing a 3 nm Au thin film as a catalyst. In our experiments, epitaxially grown ZnO nanowires on Au-coated GaN were vertically well-aligned, while nanowires normally tilted from the surface when grown on Au-coated c-$Al_2O_3$ substrates. However, pre-growth annealing of the Au thin layer on c-$Al_2O_3$ resulted in the growth of well-aligned nanowires in a normal surface direction. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy measurements showed that the grown nanowires have a hexagonal c-axis orientation with a single-crystalline structure.
