Microstructural and electromagnetic properties of YIG ferrites, (Y, Ca)-(Fe, V, In, Al)-O for Isolator/Circulator were investigated with the sintering temperature. YIG ferrites of $Y_{2.1}Ca_{0.9}Fe_{4.4}V_{0.5}In_{0.05}Al_{0.05}O_{12}$ were fabricated by sintering at $1300^{\circ}C$, $1330^{\circ}C$, $1350^{\circ}C$, $1370^{\circ}C$. Crystallographic and microstructural properties were measured using XRD and SEM. Saturation magnetization$(4{\pi}M_s)$ were measured using VSM, and FMR(Ferromagnetic Resonance) experiment was conducted to measure ferromagnetic resonance line width$({\Delta}H)$. Microwave characteristics of YIG ferrites were measured using a Network Analyzer. The YIG ferrite of $Y_{2.1}Ca_{0.9}Fe_{4.4}V_{0.5}In_{0.05}Al_{0.05}O_{12}$, sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$, showed higher density, saturation magnetization and lower ferromagnetic resonance line width than those sintered at any other temperature.

In order to reduce to the defect density in poly-Si/SiO$_2$ thin films, where poly-Si is either undoped or doped by BF$_2$ implantation, the poly-Si/SiO$_2$ samples have been hydrogenated by rf plasmas of low temperature. Before hydrogenation, both $P_b$ centers and E centers were observed in the poly-Si(undoped)/SiO$_2$ and in the poly-Si(doped)/SiO$_2$. After 30 min hydrogenation, the $P_b$ center was reduced by 80 % doped sample and by 76 % in the undoped sample and the E center was not observed. After 90min hydrogenation, however, increases of the $P_b$ centers and regenerations of the E center were observed in the undoped sample as well as in the doped one. Compared with the undoped sample, the increase of $P_b$ center in the doped one was more dominant.

It is important to develop a simple method oftuning localized surface plasmon resonance(LSPR) properties, due to their numerous applications. In addition, the careful examination of the shape, size and combination of metal nanoparticles is useful for understanding the relation between the LSPR properties and metal nanostructures. This article describes the dependence of theLSPR properties on the arrays of metal nanoparticles obtained from a block copolymer(BCP) micellar thin film. Firstly, two different Au nanostructures, having a dot and ring shape, were fabricated using conventional block copolymer micelle lithography. Then, Ag was plated on the Au nanostructures through the silver mirror reaction technique to obtain Au/Ag bimetallic nanostructures. During the production of these metallic nanostructures, the processing factors, such as the pre-treatment by ethanol, silver mirror reaction time and removal or not of the BCP, were varied. Once the Au nanoparticles were synthesized, Ag was properly plated on the Au, providing two distinguishable characteristic plasmonic bands at around 525nm for Au and around 420nm for Ag, as confirmed bythe UV-vis measurements. However, when a small amount of Au seed nanoparticles, which accelerate the Ag plating speed,was formed by usinga block copolymer with a relatively highmolecular weight, all of the Au surfaces were fully covered by Ag during the silver mirror reaction, showing only the characteristic peak for Ag at around 420nm. The Ag plating technique on Au nanoparticles pre-synthesized from a block copolymer is useful to study the LSPR properties carefully.

The dynamic elastic properties of metal matrix composites were investigated by resonant ultrasound spectroscopy(RUS). The composites used in this study consisted of 2124 aluminum alloy reinforced with different concentrations of SiC particles. RUS can determine the nine independent elastic stiffness($C_{ij}$) for the orthorhombic symmetry on a small specimen simultaneously. The elastic constants were determined as a function of the volume fraction. A concept of effective aspect ratio. which combine the aspect ratio and the orientation of reinforcement. was used to calculate the initial moduli from Mori-Tanaka theory for the input of RUS minimization code. Young's moduli can be obtained from the measured stiffnesses. The results show that the elastic stiffness increases with increment of the particle content. The behavior of elastic stiffness indicates that the particle redistribution induced by the extrusion process enlarges the transversely isotropic symmetry as the fraction of reinforced particles increase. This relationship could be used for determination of the volume fractions of reinforcement as a potential tool of nondestructive material characterization.

Gadolinium, commonly used as a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is discharged into aquatic environments without removal after treatment in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) because of its high stability. In this study, we collected water samples from Suyeong WWTP, Busan, to investigate the dissolved rare earth element (REE) removal capacity of each wastewater treatment process and to evaluate the discharge of anthropogenic Gd (Gd_anth) from effluents. As wastewater passed through each stage of treatment, the concentrations of light REEs (La-Eu) decreased, whereas those of heavy REEs (Tb-Lu) were relatively consistent. Negative Sm anomalies (<1) were observed in several samples, indicating that Sm can be removed by adsorption onto particles or phosphate during the biological removal process. Positive Gd anomalies (149±50, n=9) were observed in all samples. The ratios of Gd_anth concentrations to measured Gd concentrations in all wastewater treatment processes were higher than 97%. This indicates that Gd_anth was discharged to the Suyeong River without removal during the wastewater treatment process. Considering the daily treatment capacity in each process, the total flux of Gd_anth was estimated to be 259 mmol/day. Our results suggest that mid- and/or long-term monitoring of Gd is needed because Gd_anth is continuously discharged into Suyeong Bay through WWTPs.

플렉서블 기판을 기반으로 하는 휴대용 기기는 다양한 형태로 가공이 가능하고 가벼워 휴대가 용이하며 충격에 강하여 내구성이 좋은 장점을 가지고 있으나 플렉서블 전극 개발이 어려운 문제가 있다. 플렉서블 전극으로 그래핀, 은나노선, 금속메쉬 등의 다양한 재료, 구조에 대한 연구가 진행되고 있으며 특히 은나노선 전극은 공정이 단순하고 투과도 및 전도도가 비교적 우수하녀 가장 강력한 후보재료로 알려져 있다. 그러나 은나노선은 표면거칠기가 매우 크고 헤이즈가 발생하여 OLED 디스플레이용 전극으로 응용시 화면의 선명도가 떨어지며 은나노선 네트워크 형성시 은나노선간의 접촉저항이 증가하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 최근 산화그래핀을 적용하여 은나노선의 투과도, 전도도, 표면거칠기를 개선하는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 은나노선과 산화그래핀 나노복합체를 형성하고 플렉서블 기판에 전사하는 공정방법을 통해 투명전극을 형성하였고 산화그래핀이 포함되지 않은 전극과 비교하여 전극의 성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다. 주사전자현미경 측정을 통해 플렉서블 기판에 포함된 산화그래핀-은나노선 전극의 구조적 특성을 조사하였고 면저항측정을 통해 산화그래핀 처리로 인해 전기적 특성이 개선되는 결과를 확인하였다. 전도도 개선의 원인을 조사하기 위해 라만, XPS, 투과도 측정결과를 분석하여 그래핀에 포함된 pyridinic 질소가 감소하고 quaternary 질소가 증가하며 이로 인해 defect sites의 수가 감소하는 결과를 확인하였다. 산화그래핀과 은나노선의 접합부분에서 산화그래핀의 quaternary 질소가 증가하고 산화그래핀에 전하밀도를 증가하여 전도도를 향상하였다. 투과도 측정을 통해 은나노선의 가로방향 플라즈몬 공명 흡수가 산화그래핀 처리에 의해 감소한 결과를 확인하였다. 산화그래핀-은나노선 나노복합체의 전도도 향상 원인에 대한 연구는 은나노선의 플렉서블 전극 응용을 가속화하고 잠재적인 응용분야를 확대하기 위한 원천지식을 제공할 것이다.

PSM(process safety management), introduced for the purpose of managing complex chemical processes, has contributed to the prevention of chemical accidents, but has recently revealed its limitations. Recently, major industrial accidents have increased, and in particular, Serious Industrial Accidents have increased rapidly in non-routine works since 2020. It is time for an effective PSM operation plan. This study examined that FRAM can be effectively used in the PSM operation process by using FRAM (Functional Resonance Analysis Method), a useful technique for understanding and predicting human error and accident occurrence processes by modeling nonlinear and complex interactions, to analyze accident cases that occurred in non-routine works, and to further analyze the process of performing general PSM non-routine works.

$PbTiO_3$ films were fabricated by electron cyclotron resonance plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition(ECR-PECVD). Deposition characteristics of $PbTiO_3$films on $RuO_2$ and Pt substrates were investigated with varying the flow rate of metalorganic source and substrate temperature. The residence time of Pb-oxide molecules in much longer on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrate, while the perovskite nucleation is more difficult on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrate. Therefore, the process conditions to obtain the single perovskite $PbTiO_3$ phase are more restricted on $RuO_2$ than on Pt substrates. An introduction of Ti-oxide seed layer increases perovskite nucleation density and thus enlarges the process window to obtain the single perovkite phase. The introduction of Ti-oxide seed layer make the PZT film that Ti-components of $PbTiO_3$ are partially substituted with Zr atoms have single perovskite phase for the wide range of Zr/(Zr+Ti) concentration ratios.
