Highly sensitive and mechanically stable gas sensors have been fabricated using the microfabrication and micromaching techniques. The sensing material used to detect the offensive trimethylarnine ((CH$_{3}$)$_{3}$N) gas is 6 wt% $Al_{2}$O$_{3}$-doped, 1000.angs.-thick ZnO deposited by r. f. magnetron sputtering. The optimum operating temperature of the sensor is 350.deg.C and the corresponding heater power is about 85mW. Excellent thermal insulation is achieved by the use of a double-layer structure of 0.2.mu.m -thick silicon nitride and 1.4.mu.m-thick phosphosilicate glass(PSG) prepared by low pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) and atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition(APCVD), respectively. The sensors are mechanically stable enough to endure at least 43, 200 heat cycles between room temperature and 350.deg. C.

The galvanic anodes have three kinds of Zn alloy anode, Al alloy anode and Mg alloy anode, which are widely used in cathodic protection for all metal structures in water or under ground. This paper to be used for designing of the grounding cell has reached the following conclusion as the results of an experimental study on the characteristics of such galvanic anodes for corrosion protection of pipings: 1) Zn alloy anode was the best when the specific resistance of the environment was bellow 1000 $\Omega$.cm, and when above 1000 $\Omega$.cm, Mg alloy anode to be used for designing of the grounding cell was the best. 2) Al alloy anode was better than Mg alloy anode for grounding cell when the specific resistance was bellow 500 $\Omega$.cm, but the Al alloy anode in all the environments reduced the characteristics of galvanic anode to the lower grade than those of Zn alloy anode. 3) Each impressed voltage (E) of the anodes at which drainage current density ($\rho$) begins rapidly increasing is quantitatively presented as follows: \circled1 E sub(Zn)=log (4.9465/$\rho$super(0.0639))+11$\times$10 super(-6)$\rho$super(0.8923i) \circled2 E sub(Al)=log (4.9306/$\rho$super(0.0525))+13$\times$10 super(-6)$\rho$super(0.9314i) \circled3 E sub(Mg)= log (3.7086/$\rho$super(0.0988))+181$\times$10 super(-6)$\rho$super(0.5406i) 4) The empirical equations between the drainage current density (i) and impressed environment are modeled as the following type. logi=g+root(n.E+r)(g,n,r; constants)

In the present study, the high temperature mechanical properties and creep resistance of Mg-Zn-Y-Ca alloys has been investigated. The Mg-4Zn-0.8Y alloy consists of ${\alpha}$-Mg matrix and icosahedral quasicrystalline phase. Calcium addition into Mg-4n-0.8Y based alloy results in the formation of ${\tau}(Ca_{2}Mg_{6}Zn_{3})$ and $Mg_{2}Ca$ as the second solidification phases. Creep properties of the Mg-Zn-Y and Mg-Zn-Ca based alloys measured at applied stresses between 65 MPa and 85 MPa are significantly improved with adding calcium and yttrium, respectively. The improved creep resistance is due to the formation of thermally stable $Mg_{2}Ca$ phase.

Zinc diffusion characteristics and its applicabilities have been studied using an open-tube system. Thermal decomposition of arsenide(As) at gallium arsenide(GaAs) wafer surface was well inhibited by using Ga: poly-GaAs: Zn compositon as a diffusion source. Junction depth was obtained as 4.6x10**7\ulcorner exp)-1.25/kT) where activation energy of diffusion was 1.25eV. From Boltzmann-matano analysis, it could be identified that concentration dependencies of Zn diffusivity well consisted with those of kick-out model. The ideality factor of p+-n junction formed by Zn diffusion was about 1.6 and infrared light intensity was linearly varied in the range of sixty folds. It is concluded frodm these results that Zn diffuses according to kick-out model, and open-tube method is applicable to compound semiconductor devices.

Electrical and optical characteristics of ZnS:Mn/ZnS:Tb multilayer TFEL devices were investigated for multi-color electroluminescent display applications. Emission spectra of M $n^{2+}$ and T $b^{3+}$ ions were observed from ZnS:Mn/ZnS:Tb multi-layer TFEL devices, and were very broad from 540 nm to 640 nm. Saturation luminance measured at 155 V was 1025 Cd/$m^2$. C-V, $Q_{t}$ - $V_{p}$ curves showed that the phosphor capacitance ( $C_{p}$ ) and the insulator capacitance ( $C_{i}$ ) were 13.5nF/$\textrm{cm}^2$ and 60 nF/$\textrm{cm}^2$, respectively. Threshold voltage( $V_{thl}$) was shown to decrease from 126 V to 93 V due to the increase of the applied voltage from 155 V to 185 V, which was attributed to the increase of the polarization charge. The equation for the calculation of the threshold voltage as a function of the applied voltage was proposed for the first time. The calculated threshold voltage agreed well with the data obtained from the measurement.t.t.t.

ZnO-based varistors have been widely used for voltage stabilization or transient surge suppression in electric power systems and electronic circuits. Recently, It has reported that the varistor behavior with nonlinear coefficient of 6~17 in Mn-doped ZnO. In this study we have chosen the composition of ZnO-$TeO_2-Mn_3O_4$ (ZTM) system to the purpose of whether varistor behavior appeared in doped ZnO by the solid state sintering or not. We investigated the sintering and electric properties of 0.5~3.0 at% Mn doped ZnO-1.0 at% $TeO_2$ system. Electrical properties, such as current-voltage (I-V), capacitance-voltage (C-V), and impedance spectroscopy were conducted. $TeO_2$ itself melts at $732^{\circ}C$ in air but forms the $ZnTeO_3$ phase with ZnO as increasing temperature and therefore retards the densification of ZnO to $1000^{\circ}C$. The average grain size of sintered samples was at about $3{\mu}m$ and decreased with increasing Mn contents. It was found that a good varistor characteristics were developed in ZTM system sintered at $1100^{\circ}C$ (nonlinear coefficient $\alpha$ ~ 60). The results of C-V characteristics such as barrier height ($\Theta$), donor density ($N_d$), depletion layer (W), and interface state density ($N_t$) in ZTM ceramics were $4\times10^{17}cm^{-3}$, 0.7 V, 40 nm, and $1.6\times10^{12}cm^{-2}$, respectively. It will be discussed about the stability and homogeneity of grain boundaries using distribution parameter ($\alpha$) simulated with the Z(T)"-logf plots in ZTM system.

The objectives of this study were to assess extraction kinetics of heavy metals with extraction times and to assess extraction efficiencies of heavy metals with concentrations and kinds of washing solutions. Target materials were obtained from disused metal mines. Washing solutions were water, HCl(0.1, 0.3, 1.0 N), EDTA(0.01, 0.05, 0.1 M), and sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS, 0.1. 0.5, 1.0%). Extraction efficiencies of heavy metals by water and SDS were below 1%, and extraction efficiencies of Zn and Cd were higher than those of Pb and Cu. As results, water and SDS were not effective in extracting heavy metals from mine tailings as washing solution, but extraction efficiencies of Pb and Cu with SDS solution increased as extraction time increased. Extraction kinetics of heavy metals with HCl and EDTA were faster than those with water and SDS. The majority of heavy metals were extracted within 6 hours, and extraction kinetics was almost independent of the solution concentration. Extraction kinetics of heavy metals after 6 hours was slow, but extraction kinetics was dependent on the solution concentration. Also, as concentrations of HCl and EDTA solution were stronger, heavy metals were extracted rapidly and extraction efficiencies were increased. The extraction efficiency was high in order of Cd>Pb>Zn>Cu in using 1.0 N HCl, and Pb>Cd>Zn>Cu in using 0.1 M EDTA. Consequently, extraction effectiveness was highest for Pb in using HCl, and for Pb and Cd in using EDTA with concentration increase. Extraction time of over 6 hours was not effective in extracting heavy metals.

The pollution characteristics of groundwaters in Taegu City and correlation coefficients(r) between water pollution indicators were investigated for two years from January 1996 to December 1997. Volatile organic compounds such as TCE(tri-chloroethylene), PCE(tetrachloroethylene), l,l,l-trichloroethane, THM(trihalo-methane), dichloromethane, pesticides such as diazinon, parathion, malathion, and toxic inoganic matters such as As, Hg, Se, Pb, Cd, $Cr_6^+,$ CN were not detected in the groundwaters. Mean values of groundwater pollution indicators were below drinking-water standards, but hardness, $KMnO_4-C(potassium$ permanganate consumption), evaporate residues, $SO_4^{-2},\;Fe,\;NO_3^{-}-N,$ color and turbidity exceeded a little in some samples. As groundwater became deeper, hardness and evaporate residues remarkably increased, but $KMnO_4-C,\;NO_3^{-}-N,\;Cl-,$ color, turbity and bacteria decreased. $KMnO_4-C,$ evaporate residues, $Cl^-\;and\;SO_4^{-2}$ were very high at industrial and commercial areas, and $NO_3^--N$ and $NH_4^+-N$ were very high at agricultural and forest areas. It showed high positive significances in the relationships between hardness and each of evaporate residues, $SO_4^{-2}$, Zn and Mn, $KMnO_4-C$ and each of color, turbidity and Zn, color and each of turbidity, Cu, Zn and Mn, turbidity and each of Fe, Cu, Zn and Mn, and evaporate residues and each of $Cl^-,\;SO_4^{-2}$ and Zn.
