$\varepsilon$-Caprolactame as organic monomer was intercalated in the interlayer space of montmorillonite and polymerized by polymerization reaction so that the inorganic polymer and organic polymer could be combined each other by chemical bonding. The results of X-ray and IR analysis showed that the polymerization reaction of $\varepsilon$-caprolactame between the interlayer spaces has been performed sucessfully. In order to study polymeric reaction product in detail we have isolated the polymerized material from the interlayer space and analyzed it by X-ray diffractometer and IR-Spectrocopy. The comparison of these results with them of the analyses for thee pure polymer which has been synthesized by polymeric reaction of $\varepsilon$-carolactame without montmorillonite showed that the obtained both polymeric materials are the same compounds.

The present work aims to fabricate Na_1+xZr₂Si_xP_3-xO₁₂ compound at various calcination temperatures based on the zircon mineral. The fabricated compound was calcinated at 250, 500, and 1000℃. The effect of calcination temperature on the structure, crystal phase, and radiation shielding properties was studied for the fabricated compound. The X-ray diffraction diffractometer demonstrates that, the monoclinic crystal phase appeared at a calcination temperature of 250℃ and 500℃ is totally transformed to a high-symmetry hexagonal crystal phase under a calcination temperature of 1000℃. The radiation shielding capacity was also qualified for the fabricated compounds using the Monte Carlo N-Particle transport code in the g-photons energy interval between 15keV and 122keV. The impacts of calcination temperature on the g-ray shielding behavior were clarified in the present study, where the linear attenuation coefficient was enhanced by 218% at energy of 122keV, when the calcination temperature increased from 250 to 1000℃, respectively.

본 연구에서는 열벽성장법에 의해 ZnSe 에피막을 GaAs 기판에 성장하고 double crystal x-ray diffractometer와 Photoluminescence (PL) 등의 장치를 이용하여 구조족, 광학 적 특성을 연구하였다. x-선 반치폭과 PL피크강도로부터 최적의 기판온도가 34$0^{\circ}C$임을 알 수 있었다. 또한 기판온도, 열벽부온도, 원료부온도, 성장시간등의 성장조건이 표면거칠기 성 장률, x-선 반치폭, PL 피크강도 등에 미치는 영향에 대하여 살펴보았다. 최적 성장조건하 에성장된 ZnSe 에피막의 x-선 반치폭은 149sec로 나타났는데 이는 HWE 성장법으로 성장 된 ZnSe 에피막에 대하여 보고된 수치 중 가장낮은 값이다. PL 스펙트럼에서 I2 피크와 DAP 피크의 강도는 높고, SA 피크의 강도는 낮다는 사실로부터 본 연구에서 성장된 ZnSe 에피막의 결정질이 매우 우수함을 확인하였다.

The commercial $V_2O_5-WO_3/TiO_2$ catalysts which had been exposed to the off gas from incinerator for a long time were regenerated by physical and chemical treatment. The catalytic properties and NOx conversion reactivity of those catalysts were examined by analysis equipment and NOx conversion experiment. The characterization of the catalysts were performed by XRD(x-ray diffractometer), BET, POROSIMETER, EDX(energy dispersive x-ray spectrometer), ICP(inductively coupled plasma), TGA(thermogravimetric analyzer) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy). NOx conversion experiment were performed with simulated off gas of the incinerator and $NH_3$ was used as a reductant of SCR reaction. Among the regeneration treatment methods which were applied to regenerate the aged catalysts in this study, it showed that the heat treatment method had excellent regeneration effect on the catalytic performance for NOx conversion. The catalytic performance of the regenerated catalysts with heat treatment method were recovered over than 95% of that of fresh catalyst. For the regenerated catalysts with the acid solution(pH 5) and the alkali solution(pH 12), the catalytic performance were recovered over than 90% of that of fresh catalyst. From the characterization results of the regenerated catalysts, the specific surface area was recovered in the range of $85{\sim}95%$ of that of fresh catalyst. S and Ca element, which are well known as the deactivation materials for the SCR catalysts, accumulated on the aged catalyst surface were removed up to maximum 99%. Among the P, Cr, Zn and Pb elements accumulated on the aged catalyst surface, P, Cr and Zn element were removed up to 95%. But the Pb element were removed in the range of $10{\sim}30%$ of that of fresh catalyst.

Amorphous $Ge_1$_$_xMn_x$ semiconductor thin films grown by low temperature vapor deposition were annealed at various temperatures from 400 to $700^{\circ}C$ for 3 minutes in high vaccum chamber. The electrical and magnetotransport properties of as-grown and annealed samples have been studied. X-ray diffraction patterns analysis revealed that the samples still maintain amorphous state after annealling at $500^{\circ}C$ for 3 minutes and they were crystallized when annealing temperature increase to $600^{\circ}C$. Temperature dependence of resistivity measurement implied that as-grown and annealed $Ge_1$_$_xMn_x$ films have semiconductor characteristics, the increase of resistivity with annealling temperature was obseved. The $700^{\circ}C$-annealed sample exhibited negative magnetoresistance (MR) at low temperatures and the MR ratio was ${\sim}$8.5% at 10 K. The asymmetry was present in all MR curves. The anomalous Hall Effect was also observed at 250 K.

InGaP epilayers were grown on the flat, $2^{\circ}$off, $6^{\circ}$ off, and $10^{\circ}$off GaAs substrates by organo-metallic vapor phase epitaxy, and influences of crystallographic misorientation of the substrate on the structural and optical properties such as lattice mismatch, elastic strain, lattice curvature, misfit stress, and PL intensity /line-width were investigated in this study. Material characterizations were carried out by TXRD( tripple-axis x-ray diffractometer) and low temperature (11K) PL (photoluminescence). With increase of the substrate misorientation angle (S.M.A.), the relative incorporation of Ga atoms on the substrate surface was found to be enhanced. Also, with increase of the S. M. A., the x-ray line-width of the InGaP epilayer was reduced, indicating that the crystal quality of the epilayer could be improved tilth a misoriented substrate. It was also found that the elastic accommodation of the strain-free lattice misfit was more remarkable in a misoriented sample. PL intensity increased, and PL line-width and emission wavelength decreased with the increase of S. M. A. The results conclude that the elastic characteristics and the crystal quality of the InGaP epilayer could be remarkably enhanced when the misoriented substrates were employed.

In this paper, we fabricated TCO (transparent conductive oxide) electrode on flexible substrate in order to study effects of electrical and optical properties according to Al-doped ZnO(AZO) film thickness. The thickness of film was from 100 nm to 500 nm and was controlled by changing deposition time. We used High Resolution X-ray Diffractometer (HR-XRD) to analyze crystal structure and UV-visible spectrophotometer to measure property of optical transmittance, respectively. The surface images are obtained by using ESEM (Environment Scanning Electron Microscopy). In this experiment, all the AZO films deposited on flexible substrate show high transmittance over 90% and especially in the films with 400 nm and 500 nm thickness, the resistivity ($4.5{\times}10^{-3}\;{\Omega}-cm$) and optical bandgap energy (3.61 eV) are superior to the other films.

Ni-coated alumina was prepared by sonochemical method. To increase an efficiency of Ni coating on alumina, amorphous alumina was prepared by sol-gel method and Ni was coated to fine particles of alumina. Ni-coated alumina was prepared from various calcination temperatures ($500^{\circ}C$, $1,000^{\circ}C$), concentrations of Ni solution (0.01 M~0.2 M) and sonochemical reaction times (30 min, 2h). The prepared fine particles were characterized by X-Ray Diffractometer (XRD), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), Inductively Coupled Plasma Atomic Emission Spectroscopy (ICP-AES), and Particle Size Analyzer (PSA). The coating amount of Ni increased, as Ni concentration and ultrasonication time increased. The maximum amount of Ni was coated to fine particles of alumina, when Ni-coated alumina was prepared with 0.1 M concentration of Ni solution for 2 h of sonication time at $1000^{\circ}C$ of calcination temperature. The average particle size was in the range of 835.9 to 986.7 nm.
