N-type ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ with a nominal composition of $Fe_{0.98}Co_{0.02}Si_2$ powders has been produced by mechanical alloying process and consolidated by vacuum hot pressing. As-milled powders were of metastable state and fully transformed to ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ phase by subsequent isothermal annealing. However, as-consolidated $Fe_{0.98}Co_{0.02}Si_2$ consisted of untransformed mixture of ${\alpha}-Fe_2Si_ 5$ and $\varepsilon$-FeSi phases. Isothermal annealing has been carried out to induce the transformation to a thermoelectric semiconducting ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ phase. The transformation behavior of ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ was investigated by utilizing DTA, a modified TGA under magnetic field, SEM, and XRD analyses. Isothermal annealing at $830^{\circ}C$ in vacuum led to the thermoelectric semiconducting ${\beta}-FeSi_2$ phase transformation, but some residual metallic $\alpha$ and $\varepsilon$ phases were unavoidable even after prolonged annealing. Thermoelectric properties were remarkably improved by isothermal annealing due to the transformation from metallic $\alpha$ and $\varepsilon$ phases to semiconducting phases.

Ultrafine ${\beta}$-SiC powders were synthesized by the vapor phase reaction of TMS[Si(CH3)4] in hydrogen The reaction temperature and TMS concentration were varied from 1000 to 1400$^{\circ}C$ and from 1 to 10% respectively. The average particle size and phase of the powders were analyzed by TEM and XRD. Ultrafine ${\beta}$-SiC powders were synthesized above 1000$^{\circ}C$ and the crystallinity of the powders increased with increasing reaction temperature. Shape of the particles were spherical and had average size of about 20 nm which showed no difference as the reaction temperature and TMS concentration increased. From the FT-IR analysis the absorption bands of Si-C of the powders shifted to higher wavenumber as the reaction temperature increased,. Under the condition of total gas flow above 1500cc/min ${\beta}$-SiC and poly-Si powders were obtained simultaneously. The Si-O bond intensity was increased under the condition of total gas flow rate above 1000cc/min which might be due to oxidation formed on poly-Si.

유기물 반도체 화합물인 Cu-Pc(copper(II)-phthalocyanine)는 우수한 전기적 광학적 특성을 가지며, OLED, MISFET등 소자로서의 활용도가 높다. Cu-Pc 화합물은 $\alpha$-phase, $\beta$-phase, $\gamma$-phase를 포함하는 여러 가지 다결정 polymer로 존재할 수 있다. 가장 잘 알려진 구조로는 열적으로 준안정적인 $\alpha$-phase와 열적으로 안정적인 $\beta$-phase가 있다. Cu-Pc 박막의 구조 및 흡수 특성과 전기적 특성에 대한 기술이 확실히 규명되지 않아 본 연구에서는 두께와 열처리 조건에 따른 결정성 및 방향성을 조사하기 위하여 $\alpha$-phase와 $\beta$-phase의 phase transition 현상 및 전기적 광학적 특성을 규명 하고자 한다. 진공증착 방법 중 하나인 PVD 방법의 thermal evaporation deposition을 이용하여 glass, ITO 기판위에 두께와 열처리에 따른 전기적?광학적 특성을 연구하였다. Cu-Pc 박막의 성장두께는 5nm~50nm 이내로 fluxmeter 및 thickness monitor를 이용하여 제어하였다. 5nm~50nm의 두께에 따른 기판온도를 $200^{\circ}C$로 고정하여 전열 처리 및 후열 처리하여 온도에 따른 박막을 성장한 후, 결정 구조 및 특성 변화와 phase transition 분석하였다. 제작된 Cu-Pc의 박막은 $\alpha$-phase와 $\beta$-phase로 구분할 수 있으며, 열처리에 따른 phase transition 현상이 뚜렷함을 알 수 있다. XRD(X-ray diffraction)를 통하여 박막에 대한 결정 구조 분석 및 FE-SEM(field emission scanning electron microscopy)와 AFM(atomic force microscopy)을 이용하여 Cu-Pc 박막의 구조적 결정성과 방향성 등, 표면 상태와 형상구조에 대해 표면의 특성을 측정하며, 광 흡수도(UV-visible absorption spectra)을 이용하여 phase transition 현상에 따른 I-V 특성을 비교분석 하였다.

Microstructural features were comparatively investigated in AZ91 (Mg-9%Al-1%Zn) and AZ91-0.5%Sn alloys, in order to clarify the reason for the enhancement in room temperature tensile properties by the addition of small amount of Sn in Mg-Al-based alloy. In as-cast state, the Sn-containing alloy showed increased YS, UTS and elongation than the Sn-free alloy. The microstructural examination revealed that various factors including finer cell size, reduction of lamellar (${\alpha}+{\beta}$) phase and morphological change of bulky ${\beta}$ phase from partially divorced shape to fully divorced shape, are likely to be responsible for the improvement in tensile properties for the Sn-containing alloy. It is noted that two alloys showed similar tensile properties after solution treatment. This implies that microstructural evolution related to the ${\beta}$ phase plays a key role in better tensile properties in the Sn-containing alloy.

Change in damping capacity with strain amplitude was studied in Mg-Al-Si alloy in as-cast, solution-treated and aged states, respectively. The as-cast microstructure of the alloy is characterized by eutectic ${\beta}$($Mg_{17}Al_{12}$) phase and Chinese script type $Mg_2Si$ particles. The solution treatment dissolved the ${\beta}$ phase into the matrix, while the aging treatment resulted in the distribution of continuous and discontinuous type ${\beta}$ precipitates. The solution-treated microstructure showed better damping capacity than as-cast and aged microstructures both in strain-dependent and strain-independent damping regions. The decrease in second-phase particles which weakens the strong pinning points on dislocations and distribution of solute atoms in the matrix, would be responsible for the enhanced damping capacity after solution treatment.

Shear-induced phase transformation behavior of chemically stabilized $\beta$-cristobalite was studied by the fiber push-out technique. To obtain the critical grain size for phase transformation, the hot-pressed polycrystalline $\beta$-cristobalite, which was used as the interphase between fiber and matrix, was annealed at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 10h. Two types of fibers, mullite and sapphire fiber, were used in this study. Debonding between mullite fiber and cristobalite interphase occurred at a critical load of 230 MPa. Static friction and fiber sliding were continuously followed by debonding. Shear-induced transformation induced cracks in the cristobalite interphase at the debonding stage. In the case of the sapphire fiber, the debonding occurred at a lower load of 180 MPa due to the residual stress in the interface caused by the difference in thermal expansion coefficients between the fiber and the cristobalite interphase. The load was insufficient for shear-induced phase transformation.

Low Rayleigh number thermal convection in a fluid layer confined between two-infinite horizontal walls kept at spatially sinusoidal temperature distributions, T_L=T_m+\Delta T\sin \kappax,\;T_U=T_m+\Delta T\sin(\kappax-\beta)$, is theoretically investigated by a regular perturbation expansion method. For small wave numbers, an upright cell is formed between the two walls at $\beta$=0. The cell is tilted, as the phase difference increases, and a flow with tow counter-rotating eddies occurs at $\beta=\pi$. when the wave number is large, isolated eddies are formed near the lower and upper walls, for all the phase differences. There exists a wave number at which maximum heat transfer rate at the walls occurs, at each of the phase differences. And the wave number increases with increase of the phase difference. for a fixed wave number, the heat transfer rate decrease with increase of the phase difference.

A general theory of polymer adsorption at a semi-permeable oil-water interface of the biphasic solution is presented. The configurational factor of the solution in the presence of the semi-open boundary at the interface is evaluated by the quasicrystalline lattice model. The present theory gives the feature of the bulk concentration equilibria between oil-water subsystems and the surface excesses of ${\Gamma}^{\alpha}$ and ${\Gamma}^\{beta}$ of the polymer segments as a function of the degree of polymerization $\gamma$, the Flory-Huggins parameter in $\beta$-phase $x_{\rho}^{{\beta}_{\rho}}$, the differential adsorption energy parameter in $\beta$-phase $x_{\sigma}^{{\beta}_{\rho}}$, the differential interaction energy parameter ${\Delta}x_{\rho}$ and the bulk concentration of the polymer in ${\beta}-phase ${\varphi}_2^{{\beta(*)}_2}$. From our numerical results, the characteristics of ${\Gamma}^{\alpha}$ are shown to be significantly different from those of ${\Gamma}^{\beta}$ in the case of high polymers, and this would be the most apparent feature of the adsorption behavior of the polymer at a semi-permeable oil-water interface, which is sensitively dependent on ${\Delta}x_{\rho}$ and r.

$K_2O-MgO-Al_2O_3$의 3성분계로부터 $K^+-{\beta}/{\beta}"-Al_2O_3$를 직접 고상반응법에 의하여 합성하였다. 합성시 초기조성, 합성온도, 합성시간 및 분쇄매체가 ${\beta}/{\beta}"-Al_2O_3$ 상형성 및 상관계에 미치는 영향에 대하여 분석하였으며 최대 분율의 ${\beta}"-Al_2O_3$ 상형성을 위한 최적 합성조건을 연구하였다. 조성범위로서 $K_2O$와 $Al_2O_3$상형성의 몰비를 1:5에서 1:6.2로, 안정화제로 사용된 MgO는 4.2 wt % 에서 6.3 wt % 사이에서 변화시켰으며 합성온도는 $1000^{\circ}C$에서 $1500^{\circ}C$까지 취하였다. ${\beta}/{\beta}"-Al_2O_3$상은 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$와 $KAlO_2$가 결합하는 $1000^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 형성되기 시작하여 점차 증가하다가 $1200^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 ${\alpha}-Al_2O_3$가 모두 사라지면서 균일화되었다. ${\beta}"-Al_2O_3$ 상분율은 $K_{1.67}Mg_{0.67}Al_{10.33}O_{17}$의 조성과 함께 $1300^{\circ}C$ 부근에서 최대값을 보였다. $1300^{\circ}C$ 이상의 합성 온도에서는 높은 potassium의 증기압에 따른 $K_2O$의 손실에 의하여 ${\beta}"-Al_2O_3$ 상분율이 감소하였으며 합성시간은 5시간 정도가 적당하였다. 분쇄 및 혼합을 위한 분산매체로는 증류수보다는 아세톤의 효과가 뛰어났다.

The current understanding for phase/grain boundary sliding and low-temperature/high-strain rate superplasticity of two-phase titanium alloys is summarized. The quantitative analysis on boundary sliding revealed increased sliding resistance on the order of $\alpha/\beta\;\ll\;\alpha/\alpha\;\approx\;\beta/\beta$ boundary, hence, led to the conclusion that approximately 50% alpha(or beta) volume fraction and/or grain refinement is beneficial for obtaining large superplastic elongation at low temperature and/or high strain rate. To predict the temperature for 50% alpha volume in various alpha/beta Ti, artificial neural network was applied. Finally, much enhanced superplasticity was achieved through grain refinement utilizing dynamic globularization.
