$SrTiO_3$ and $BaTiO_3$ sol-liquids and powders were prepared by the sol-gel method. $SrTiO_3/BaTiO_3$ heterolayered thin/thick films have been prepared on the $Al_2O_3$ substrates by screen printing and spin-coating method. The thin films were sintered at $750^{\circ}C$ in the air for 1 hour and the thick films sintered at $1325^{\circ}C$ in the air for 2 hours, respectively. The $SrTiO_3/BaTiO_3$ thin/thick films's structural and dielectric properties were investigated. Increasing the spin-coating times, (110), (200), (211) peaks of the $SrTiO_3$ were increased. The X-ray diffraction(XRD) patterns and SEM photographs indicated that the $SrTiO_3$ phase were formed in the surface of $BaTiO_3$ thick films. The average thickness of a $BaTiO_3$ thick films and $SrTiO_3$ thin films were $50{\mu}m$ and 400nm, respectively The dielectric constant and dielectric loss of the $SrTiO_3/BaTiO_3$ thin/thick films with $SrTiO_3$ coated 5 times were 1598 and 0.0436 at 10KHz.

Effect of tension coating on reducing iron losses of thin grain-oriented 3% Si-Fe steel sheets was investigated. Conventional grain-oriented electrical steel sheets have a forsterite coating layer and a tension coating layer in order to apply tensile stress to the rolling direction of the sheets. However the proposed coating method in this paper is to form only a tension coating layer on the both surfaces of the sheets. Iron losses with the tension coating were reduced by 8% under the condition of 1.7 T and 60 Hz. Consequently the proposed tension coating is applicable to $80{\mu}m$-thick 3% Si-Fe steel sheets.

$Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{x}$(Bi-2212) and $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}Ca_{2}Cu_{3}O_{y}$(Bi-2223) high-$T_{c}$ superconductor(HTS) coating have been prepared by plasma spraying and heaat treatment. The Bi-2212 HTS coating later is synthesized through the peritectic reaction between Sr-Ca-Cu oxide coating layer and Bi-Cu oxide coating later, and $Bi_{2}Sr_{2}CaCu_{2}O_{y}$(Bi-2212) superconducting phase grow by partial melting process. The superconducting characteristic depends strongly on the conditions of the partial melting process. the Bi-2212 HTS layer consists of the whiskers grown in the diffusion direction. Above the 2212 layer, Bi-2223 phase and secondary phase was observed. The secondary phase is distributed uniformly over the whole surface. This is caused to the microcrack on the coatings surface. Despite everything, the film shows superconducting with an onset $T_{c}$ of about 115K. There are two changes steps. One changes (1step) at 115K is due to the diamagnetism of the Bi-2223 phase and the other changes (2step) at 78K is due to the diamagnetism of the Bi-2212 phase.

A single-coat $YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO) film of high critical currents ($I_c$) could be successfully fabricated by optimizing the viscosity of the coating solution in the metal-organic deposition (MOD) process. From a Ba-deficient coating solution (Y: Ba: Cu = 1: 1.5: 3) having the viscosity of 212 $mPa{\cdot}sec$, 0.9 ${\mu}m$-thick single coat YBCO film with the $I_c$ value of 289 A/cm-width ($J_c$ = 3.2 MA/$cm^2$) at 77 K was achievable on the $SrTiO_3$ (STO) substrate, which was superior to that of our previous report for 0.8 ${\mu}m$-thick single coat YBCO film from a stoichiometric coating solution (Y: Ba: Cu = 1: 2: 3) on the $LaAlO_3$ (LAO) substrate. This result might be attributed to denser and more homogeneous microstrcuture in the case of the YBCO film from the Ba-deficient coating solution.

In this research, we intended to improve the tolerance of thick film resistor using photosensitive polymer resistor paste which was fabricated with alkali-solution developable photosensitive resin and conductive carbon black. At first, we investigated the effect of the selection of carbon black and photosensitive resin on the resistance range and tolerance level of polymer thick film resistor (PTFR). And then, a difference in resistance tolerance was evaluated according to the coating methods of photosensitive resistor paste on test board. In case that the photosensitive resistor paste was coated on whole surface of test board using screen printing, large positional tolerance was obtained because the formation of the thick film with uniform thickness was difficult. On the other hand, when the paste was coated with roller, the resistive thick film with uniform thickness was formed on the whole board area and the result of resistance evaluation showed low tolerance in ${\pm}10%$ range. The tolerance of PTFR could be improved by combination of the precise patterning using photo-process and the coating process for the resistive thick film with uniform thickness.

We have successfully fabricated the alumina thick films using inkjet printing processes without a high temperature sintering process. Alumina suspension as dielectric ink was formulated by combining nano-sized alumina powders with an anionic polymer dispersant in formamide/water as co-solvent. The thickness of the printed alumina thick film was measured at around 5 um by field emission scanning electron microscope. The calculated packing density of 68.5 % from the printed alumina thick film was much higher than the same films fabricated by conventional casting or dip coating processes. Q factor of the dielectrics thick film infiltrated with cyanate ester resin was evaluated by impedance analyzer.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to compare with color reproducibility of the coating method and dipping method using a colour liquid. Methods: Two groups of square-shaped specimens ($10mm{\times}10mm$ in diameter, 1.5mm thickness) were prepared for analysis(n=15/group). The CM(Coating Method) group was fabricated as full zirconia specimens with the coating coloring method and Group DM(Dipping Method) was prepared as specimens of 0.7 mm-thick zirconia plate using the dipping coloring method and veneered with 0.8mm-thick porcelain. Color parameters were measured with ShadeEye $NCC^{(R)}$ spectrophotometer and color differences were calculated using the equation ${\Delta}E^*= \{({\Delta}L^*)^2+({\Delta}a^*)^2+({\Delta}b^*)^2\}^{1/2}$. Non-parametric statistical methods, the Mann-Whitney test, and the Kruskal-Wallis test were used to analyze the data. Type one error rate was set at 0.05. Results: Color difference values larger than 7 were observed between specimens with the coating method and the dipping method, which were detectable difference in a clinical setting. Conclusion: Cautious application of the coating coloring method in a clinical setting and further researches to standardize the coating method are needed.

Ferroelectric PZT heterolayered thick films were fabricated by the alkoxide-based sol-gel method. PZT(20/80) and PZT(80/20) paste were made and alternately screen-printed on the alumina substrates. The coating and drying procedure was repeated 4 times to form the heterolayered thick films. The thickness of the PZT heterolayered thick films was approximately $60{\mu}m$. All PZT thick films showed the typical XRD patterns of a polycrystalline rhombohedral structure. And in the PZT thick films sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$, the pyrochlore phase was observed due to the evaporation of PbO. The relative dielectric constant and the dielectric loss of the PZT thick films sintered at $1050^{\circ}C$ were 445.2 and 1.90 % at 1 kHz, respectively. The remanent polarization and coercive field of the PZT thick films sintered at $1050^{\circ}C$ were $14.15{\mu}C/cm^2$ and 19.13 kV/cm, respectively.

In this paper, the mechanical performance of cracked surface-coated Zircaloy cladding, which has different coating materials, coating thicknesses and initial crack lengths, has been investigated. By analyzing the stress field near the crack tip, the safety zone range of initial crack length has been decided. In order to determine whether the crack can propagate along the radial (r) or axial (z) directions, the energy release rate has been calculated. By comparing the energy release rate with fracture toughness of materials, we can divide the initial crack lengths into three zones: safety zone, discussion zone and danger zone. The results show that Cr is suitable coating material for the cladding with a thin coating while Fe-Cr-Al have a better fracture mechanical performance in the cladding with thick coating. The Si-coated and SiC-coated claddings are suitable for reactors with low power fuel elements. Conclusions in this paper can provide reference and guidance for the cladding design of nuclear fuel elements.

In this paper, PZT(20/80) thick films were fabricated by the screen-printing method. And the PZT(80/20) coating solution was synthesized by the sol-gel method. PZT(20/80) thick films were screen-printed on the alumina substrates. PZT(80/20) thin film was spin-coaled on the PZT(20/80) thick films to obtain densification. And the structural and electrical properties of PZT thick films were investigated with variation of sintering temperature. The PZT specimen sintered at $650^{\circ}C$ showed good relative dielectric constant of 219 and dielectric loss of 2.45%. Also the remanent polarization and the coercive field wore 16.48 ${\mu}C/cm^2$ and 35.48kV/cm, respectively.
