Flexible electronics are the electronics on flexible substrates such as a plastic, fabric or paper, so that they can be folded or attached on any curved surfaces. They are currently recognized as one of the most innovating future technologies especially in the area of portable electronics. The conventional vacuum deposition and photolithographic patterning methods are well developed for inorganic microelectronics. However, flexible polymer substrates are generally chemically incompatible with resists, etchants and developers and high temperature processes used in conventional integrated circuit processing. Additionally, conventional processes are time consuming, very expensive and not environmentally friendly. Therefore, there are strong needs for new materials and a novel processing scheme to realize flexible electronics. This paper introduces current research trends for flexible electronics based on (a) nanoparticles, and (b) novel processing schemes: nanomaterial based direct patterning methods to remove any conventional vacuum deposition and photolithography processes. Among the several unique nanomaterial characteristics, dramatic melting temperature depression (Tm, 3nm particle~$150^{\circ}C$) and strong light absorption can be exploited to reduce the processing temperature and to enhance the resolution. This opens a possibility of developing a cost effective, low temperature, high resolution and environmentally friendly approach in the high performance flexible electronics fabrication area.

In this study, surface characteristics and corrosion behaviors have been investigated in addition to Zr elements on the low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta alloy. Low elastic modulus Ti-30Ta-xZr(x : 3, 7 and 15 wt %) alloys were prepared by arc melting and then heat treated at $1000^{\circ}C$ for 24 hrs in an argon atmosphere. Microstructures of the alloys were examined by field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometer(XRD). Electrochemical experiments were performed using a conventional three-electrode configuration with a sample working electrode, a high density carbon counter electrode and a saturated calomel reference electrode. According to the result of polarization behavior in the Ti-30Ta-xZr alloys, the current density of homogenized Ti-30Ta-15Zr in the passive region was lower than the other alloys.

Effects of Ti content and Ti underlayer on the pitting behavior of TiN coated AISI 304 stainless steel have been studied. The stainless steel containing 0.1~1.0wt% Ti were melted with a vacuum melting furnace and heat treated at $1050^{\circ}C$ for 1hr for solutionization. The specimen were coated with l$\mu\textrm{m}$ and 2$\mu\textrm{m}$ thickness of Ti and TiN by E-beam PVD method. The microstructure and phase analysis were conducted by using XRD, XPS and SEM with these specimen. XRD patterns shows that in TiN single-layer only the TiN (111) Peak is major and the other peaks are very weak, but in Ti/TiN double-layer TiN (220) and TiN (200) peaks are developed. It is observed that the surface of coating is covered with titanium oxide (TiO$_2$) and titanium oxynitride ($TiO_2$N) as well as TiN. Corrosion potential on the anodic polarization curve measured in HCl solution increase in proportion to the Ti content of substrate and by a presence of the Ti underlayer, whereas corrosion and passivation current densities are not affected by either of them. The number and size of pits decrease with increasing Ti content and a presence of the coated Ti film as underlayer in the TiN coated stainless steel.

Lightning causes physical damage to aircraft, such as melting, burning and arcing, and magnetic field that occurs on the aircraft's outer body during the penetration of a lightning stroke causes voltage and current transients in the electronics and wiring within the aircraft. This effect will cause induced lightning strikes in the aircraft's internal airborne electronic systems, preventing safe flight. This paper introduces protection circuit design techniques, and the test results that meet the requirements for certification of criteria.

Acceleration in integration density and speed performance of ULSI circuits require miniaturization of CMOS and interconnections as well as higher current density capabilities for transistors. A leading candidate to substitute Al-alloy is Cu, which has lower resistivity and higher melting point. So we can expect much higher electromigration resistance. In this paper, we are going to explain the major features of EM for MOCVD Cu according to variant conditions. We compared the life time and activation energy of MOCVD Cu with those of I-beam Cu and AA in the same conditions. The electromigration experiments were performed with Cu/Al/TiN multilayer. Experimental results shows that the deposition rate and electromigration characteristics of Cu thin film were improved by the Al interlayer.

Magnesium has been used as parts of vehicles, case materials of notebook PC and mobile phone, and its demand has been increasing recently. So until now, there has little magnesium scraps from the end of life vehicles or electronic parts, and most scraps has been generated from magnesium processing lines such as melting, die casting and machining. It is to review the present status of magnesium recycling. Here, domestic demand of magnesium, recycling amount and technologies used in domestic recycling companies were surveyed in recent years. In 2010, 8,840 tons of magnesium scraps were processed and used as raw materials for die casting products. The recycling ratio was estimated as 32.5%.

We have investigated the effect of different heat treatment processes on electrical and magnetic properties of Bi2212/Ag ROSAT wire. The ROSAT wire was fabricated by stacking and arranging 12 filaments Bi2212/Ag tapes in triple rotation symmetry in a Ag tube. ROSAT wires have been prepared using a partial melting method with changing $T_{max}$ and $T_a$ in oxygen atmosphere. The highest critical current density($J_c$) at 65 K under 0 T was $21,158\;A/cm^2$ for wire prepared $890\;^{\circ}C(T_{max})$ and $840\;^{\circ}C(T_a)$, respectively. SEM results indicated that the wire prepared at $890\;^{\circ}C(T_{max})$ and $840\;^{\circ}C(T_a)$ showed better directional phases than the other samples. However the result of magnetic susceptibility measurement indicates that the wire prepared $890\;^{\circ}C(T_{max})$ and $835\;^{\circ}C(T_a)$ had better superconducting phases than the other samples. It was revealed that heat treatment temperature was important factor for superconducting properties of the ROSAT wire.

Copper is able to work as a current collector under wide range of hydrocarbon fuels without coking in Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). The application of copper in SOFC is limited due to its low melting point, which result in coarsening the copper particle. This work focuses on the sintering of copper powder with ceria coating layer. Ceria-coated powder was prepared by thermal decomposition of urea in $Ce(NO_3)_3\cdot6H_2O$ solution, which containing CuO core particles. The ceria-coated powder was characterized by XRD, ICP, and SEM. The thermal stability of the ceria-coated copper in fuel atmosphere $(H_2)$ was observed by SEM. It was found that the ceria coating layer could effectively hinder the grain growth of the copper particles.

New electroluminescent materials based on anthracene chromophore with naphthylethenyl substituent, 9,10-bis($\alpha$-naphthylethenyl)anthracene (a-BNA), as well as four kinds of its derivatives were synthesized, and luminescent properties of these materials were investigated. Electrolumineecent(EL) emission band was discussed based on their substituent structure differences. It was found that the emission band strongly depends on the molecular structure of introduced substituent. It can be tuned from 557 nm to 591 nm by changing the substituent structures. On the other hand, the anthracene chromophore with bulky substituent possessed high melting point and they gave stable films through vacuum-sublimation. The double layer EL device of ITO/TPD/emission layer/Mg:Ag was employed, and exhibited efficient orange light originating from emitting materials. EL emission with a maximum luminance was observed in the b-BNA emitting material, : maximum luminance was about 8,060 cd $m^{-2}$ at an applied voltage of 10 V and current density of 680 $mA/cm^2$. In conclusion, the electroluminescent properties also showed good difference with their substituent structure.
