The change of optical transmittance of $PdH_x$ thin film due to hydrogen concentration change was measured at room temperature. Pd film($312{\AA}$ thick) was made by thermal evaporation on glass substrate. Hydrogen absorption and desorption cycling effect on optical transmittance was measured 4 times in the pressure range between 0 and 640 torr. Ratio of optical transmittance to the change of ln pressure(torr) increases with increasing number of hydrogen A-D cyclings in the ${\beta}$ phase.

Thermal behavior of $Li_{1-x}CoO_2$ has been investigated employing DSC (Differential Scanning calorimetry) and TGA (Thermogravimetry Analyzer), and the crystal parameters were calculated from XRD (X-ray diffraction).for the commercial rectangular pouch cell(1000 mAh).The cathode materials coated over aluminium foil current collector is made up of a blend consisting of active material $LiCoO_2$(size $20\;{\mu}m$, 94 wt%), conducting material super p black (SPB, 3 wt%) and binder polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF, 3 wt%). The anode is a mix consisting of carbon (92 wt%) and PVDF(8 wt%) coated over copper foil. The cells for the experiments were first preconditioned by cycling three times and stabilized at OCV=3.0, 3.5, 4.2, 4.35 and 4.5 V. The stabilized cathode material was used for thermal and crystal parameter investigations.

This work is to fabricate a precise optical fiber array using polymer composite for optical interconnection. Optical fiber array has to satisfy low optical loss requirement less than 0.4 dB according to temperature change. For this purpose, design criteria for an optical fiber array was derived. The coefficient of thermal expansion of silica particulate epoxy composites was affected by volume fraction of silica particles. And also, elastic modulus of silica particulate epoxy composites was affected by volume fraction of silica particles. To obtain the coefficients of thermal expansion below $10{\times}10E-6/^{\circ}C$ and elastic modulus more than 20 GPa , we chose the volume fraction more than 76%. Using silica particulate epoxy composites with the volume fraction 76%, 8-channel optical fiber array with dimensional tolerances below $1\;{\mu}m$ was manufactured by transfer molding technique using dies with the uniquely-designed core pin and precisely-machined zirconia ceramic V block. These optical fiber arrays showed optical loss variations within 0.4 dB under thermal cycling test and high temperature test.

This study investigates thermal and mechanical characterization of Hafnium carbide coating on the $C_f-C$ composites. The hafnium carbide coatings by vacuum plasma spray on the C/C-SiC composites are prepared to evaluate oxidation and wear resistance. We perform the thermal durability tests by thermal cycling at $1200^{\circ}C$ for 10cycles in air and investigates the weight change of each cycle. We also evaluate the wear and indentation behavior using tungsten carbide ball indenter as a mechanical evaluation. As a result, the HfC coating is beneficial to reduce of weight loss during thermal cycling test and improve the elastic property of C/C-SiC composite. Especially, the HfC coating improves the wear resistance of C/C-SiC composite.

As a cathode material of lithium rechargeable batteries, charged Li[Co0.1Ni0.15Li0.2Mn0.55]O2 electrodes, which were aged thermally at 25 oC and 90 oC respectively, were characterized by means of charge/discharger, impedance spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The discharge capacity diminution of the electrodes aged at 25 oC and 90 oC for 1 week was 4% and 23%, respectively. The cell aged at 25 oC was recovered on cycling. However, the capacity loss after ageing at 90 oC was not recovered in a subsequent cycling test, which demonstrates that the reaction occurring during ageing at 90 oC is irreversible. A significant impedance increase of aged electrode at 90 oC is associated with irreversible capacity loss. The structural changes including phase transformation were not detected by XRD analysis, because it could be due to out of detection limit. After ageing, impedance was slightly decreased during subsequent cycling test. It could be explained the cyclic performance of aged sample is stable. The thermal stability was not deteriorated by ageing even at the high temperature of 90 oC.

This paper shows quantitative reliability evaluations of a Bluetooth module through extending previous qualitative methods limited to structure reliability tests and solder joint reliability tests for Bluetooth modules. Accelerated Life Testing (ALT) of the modules using temperature difference in temperature cycling as an accelerated stress was conducted for quantitative reliability evaluation under field environment conditions. Lifetime distribution parameters were estimated using the failure times obtained through the ALT, and then Coffin-Manson model was implemented. Results of the ALT showed that the failure mode of the modules was open and the failure mechanisms are both crack and delamination. The ALT reproduced the failure mode and mechanisms of failed Bluetooth modules collected from the field. Further, a quantitative reliability evaluation method with respect to various temperature differences in temperature cycling was proposed in this paper. $B_{10}$ lifetime of the module for the temperature difference $70^{\circ}C$ using the proposed method would be estimated as about 4 years.

Reliability characteristics of thin package-on-packages were evaluated using T/H (temperature/humidity) test at $85^{\circ}C/85%$ for 500 hours, TC (temperature cycling) test at $-40{\sim}100^{\circ}C$ for 1,000 cycles, and HTS (high temperature storage) test at $155^{\circ}C$ for 1,000 hours. The average resistance of the solder-bump circuitry between the top and bottom packages of 24 package-on-package (PoP) samples, which were processed using polyimide thermal tape, was $0.56{\pm}0.05{\Omega}$ and quite similar for all 24 samples. Open failure of solder joints did not occur after T/H test for 500 hours, TC test for 1,000 cycles, and HTS test for 1,000 hours, respectively.

Recently, by the trends of electronic package to be smaller, thinner and more integrative, fine bump is required. but It can result in the electrical short by reduced cross-section of UBM and diameter of bump. Especially, the formation of IMCs and KV can have a significant affects about electrical and mechanical properties. In this paper, we analyzed the thermal deformation of flip-chip bump by using FEM. Through Thermal Cycling Test (TCT) of flip-chip package, We analyzed the properties of the thermal deformation. and We confirmed that the thermal deformation of the bump can have a significant impact on the driving system. So we selected IMCs thickness and bump diameter as variable which is expected to have implications for characteristics of thermal deformation. and we performed analysis of temperature, thermal stress and thermal deformation. Then we investigated the cause of the IMC's effects.
