Crystallinity and structual properties of the epitaxially grown Pt films on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate by rf magnetron sputtering at a substrate temperature of $600^{\circ}C$ were studied by using backscattering spectrometry (BS)/channeling and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) measurements. $MeV^4$He ion BS/channeling results showed that the channeling minimum yield of Pt film with a thickness of 3500$\AA$ was 4%. This indicates an excellent crystallinity of Pt film. When the thickness of Pt film was less than 200 $\AA$, the channeling minimum yield of Pt film increased sharply with the decrease in film thickness. The Pt layer on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate grew epitaxially to the direction of (111) with six-fold symmetry. Cross-sectional TEM images also showed that Pt film on $Al_2O_3$(0001) substrate consist of twinned domains to release the strain induced by the lattice mismatch and the surface roughness of the film increased at the twin boundaries where the strain was contcentrated.

A design procedure is established for hypersonic nozzles by using MOC(Method of Characteristics) and CFD. The inviscid nozzle contour is designed by MOC, then BLC(Boundary Layer Correction) is made by evaluating the boundary layer thickness from viscous CFD analysis. By comparing various definitions of the boundary layer thicknesses, it seems that the boundary layer thickness of 95% speed of the maximum value at the cross section satisfies best the design Mach number. Design procedure is as follow; MOC design, grid generation, inviscid analysis, viscous analysis, BLC and viscous analysis for confirmation and post-processing. All procedures are made automatically by using the batch processing.

In this study, we investigated the optical properties of sub-wavelength a-Si thin film transmission gratings, especially the polarization effect, the phase difference and the birefringence by using linearly polarized He-Ne laser beam (632.8nm). The a-Si transmission grating of the thickness $of < 0.1 \mum$ with four-type period($\Lambda = 0.4 \mum and 0.6 \mum$ for sub-wavelength and $\Lambda = 1.0 \mum and 1.4 \mum$ for above-wavelength) on quartz substrates have been fabricated using 50 KeV Ga+ Focused-Ion-Beam(FIB) Milling and $CF_4$Reactive-Ion-Etching(RIE) method. Finally, we obtained the trating array of a-Si thin film with a period $0.4 \mum, 0.6 \mum, 1.0 \mum, 1.4 \mum$ which have nearly equal finger spacing and width, sucessfully. Especially, for gratings with $\Lambda = 0.6 \mum(linewidth=0.25 \mum, linespace=0.35\mum), the \etamax at \theta_в=17.0^{\circ}$ is estimated to be 96%. As the results, we believe that the sub-wavelength grating arrayed a-Si thin film has the applicability as the optical device and components.

GaN는 직접천이형 에너지 캡을 가지며 In과 화합물을 형성할 경우 1.geV-3.4eV까지 다양한 에너지 캡을 가지므로 청색 발광소자 고출력소자 고온 전자소자둥 웅용성이 많 은 물절로서 각광을 받고 있다. 그러나 G랴‘에 적합한 기판이 없다는 문제점으로 인하여 F FET, LD와 같은 다양한 구조의 웅용에 제 약이 따랐다. 이에 본 연구에서는 RF(radio frequency) Plasma-Assisted MBE( molecular beam e epitaxy )를 이용하여 InxGaj xN/G암J 양자우물 구조를 성장하였다. 이렇게 성장된 I InxGaj xN 박막과 InxGaj xN/GaN 양자우물구조의 특성의 분석은 광학적 특성올 PL( p photoluminescence ) , 결 정 성 의 분석 은 XRD ( x-ray diffraction ), 표면 과 단변 의 계 변 특성은 SEM(scanning electron microscopy)을 이용하여 분석하였다. 저온 PL의 측정결 과 기판온도를 680$^{\circ}$C로 고정한 후 In cell의 온도를 650$^{\circ}$C에서 775$^{\circ}$C까지 증가함에 따라 I InxGaj xN에 관계된 피크위치가 약3이neV정도 red shift 함을 관찰할 수 있었다. 한편 I InxGaj xN/GaN 양자우물구조의 경우 PL피크가 3.2없eV로써 InxGaj- xN의 PL 피크에 비 해 에서 약 25me V 고에너지 이동이 관측되었으며 이것은 우불 내에서 에너지레벨의 c confinement효과에 의해 에너지의 변화에 의한 것엄올 확인하였으며, 양자우물 구조에서 우물의 두께를 줄임에 따라 변화 폭은 1이neV정도 고에너지 이동을 관찰할 수 있었다.

Magnetic properties and crystallographic properties of $Cu_{0.95}Ge_{0.95}Fe_{0.1}O_3$ were studied by using x-ray diffraction, superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. Our sample has orthorhombic structure and the lattice constants are a = 4.795 $\AA$, b = 8.472 $\AA$, c = 2.932 $\AA$. The spin-Peierls (SP) transition temperatures of our sample is 13 K. The Mossbauer spectra consisted with two Zeeman sextets and one doublet due to $Fe^{3+}$ions. The Zeeman sextets come from tetrahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions and the doublets come from octahedral $Fe^{3+}$ions. The jump up of magnetic hyperfine field of 2nd Zeeman sextet and the increasing of the values of quadrupole splitting and isomer shift of doublet below SP transition temperature could be interpreted related with the atomic displacements. The N el temperature is 715 K, the Debye temperature are 540 K for octahedral site and 380 K for tetrahedral site, respectively.

The catalytic converter in the front part of an automobile's exhaust system converts toxic exhaust gas into nontoxic gas. The substrate in the central part of the converter has a circular or oval-shaped cross section and fine lattice-shaped walls. In the canning process, the substrate is wrapped in mats and inserted into a can. During this process, mat pressure is induced, which may cause brittle fracturing in the substrate. In this paper, a finite element program for determining the mat pressure distribution was developed to avoid these fractures. The program was created in Microsoft EXCEL, so the input and output procedures are relatively simple. It was assumed that the substrate is rigid, the mat is material nonlinear, and the can is linear elastic. The can is modeled as a beam element to resist both bending and uniform tension/compression. The number of elements is fixed to 35, and the number of iterations, to 20. The solutions are compared to ABAQUS solutions and found to be in good agreement.

Using $Ba(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O, \;Sr(OH)_2{\cdot}8H_2O$ and $Ti(i-OC_3H_7)_4$, fine $(Ba_{1-x}, \;Sr_{x})TiO_3$ powders were synthesized through sol-gel process. The particle size of the powders calcined at $700^{\cric}C$ proved to be 20-40nm by the observation of TEM micrographs and measurement of BET specific surface area. The analysis of XRD patterns showed that the phase of the powders was cubic, and it was identified with the lattice parameters determined through XRD patterns and the shift of (112) peaks that the solid solution powders were synthesized. It was expected through the analysis of relative ratio of cations and the uniformity of compositions in the powders examined by EDAX analysis and relative dielectric constant measurements for sintered body that the distribution of cations was uniform in particle unit.

The fine structural modification of the granulocytes between the molt and intermolt period were investigated by the transmission electron microscopy. The granular hemocytes of the spider Araneus ventricosus were composed of three subtypes: eosinophilic granulocytes (EGs), basophilic granulocytes (BGs) and cyanocytes. Both of the EGs and BGs have electron dense granules within their cytoplasms, however the granules of BGs are larger than those of EGs. During the molt period, some of the EGs have fine structural modification in their cell organelles including formation of phagosomes as a result of active phagocytosis. However, the BGs have no phagosomes, but electron densities of the granules are changed to lower states than the intermolt period. The cyanocyte is the biggest hemocyte among the granulocytes. They contain numerous hemocyanin crystals in the cytoplasm with some electron-lucent vacuoles. During the molt period, some of the cyanocytes are changed to irregular shapes. High magnification electron micrographs reveal that the lattice sub-structure of the hemocyanin crystals are very similar to those of microtubules, and each tubule is composed of approximately 20 filaments with fine fibrillar structure.

A number of attempts has been made to reinforce ballasted track substructure to meet the requirement of high-speed operation and effective rehabilitation of existing railroads. For the purpose of this, the use of geogrid has been applied, and the benefit of its use has been recognized via previous studies. In this study, an experimental pullout test was carried out to investigate the influence of normal stress on pullout strength of geogrid using different types of soil and geogrid. The results revealed that the pullout resistance generally tends to increase proportional to normal stress while the pullout coefficient interaction decreases, which is a function of material interface properties, such as the friction angle of soil, and interlocking condition between soil and geogrid. In addition, a methodology based on work-energy concept was proposed to evaluate effectiveness of geogrid and limitedly verified using test results.
