We investigated the stability of the DLC film coated on 304 stainless steel substrate by Radio frequency assisted chemical vapor deposition method. Fracture and spallation behaviour of the coating was observed during micro-tensile test of the fil $m_strate composite. As the tensile deformation progressed, the cracks of the film were observed in the perpendicular direction to the tensile axis. Further deformation resulted in the plastic deformation with $45^{\circ}$ slip bands on the substrate surface. Spallation of the film occurred with the plastic deformation, which was initiated at the cracks of the film and was aligned along the slip directions. We found that both the cracking and the spallation behaviors are strongly dependent on the pre-treatment condition, such as Ar plasma pre-treatment. The spallation of the film was considerably suppressed in an optimized condition of the substrate cleaning by Ar glow discharge. We observed the improved stability with increasing duration of Ar plasma pre-treatment.nt.

This study shows that tensile strength in moist sand clearly exists due to moisture and it is possible to simply and accurately measure the tensile strength of sands at low moisture contents. These measurements were made through the use of a newly developed direct tension apparatus and technique which are able to produce highly accurate results. The magnitudes of the tensile strengths of these moist and relatively clean sands are not equal to zero, as is widely assumed. Tensile strength increases with increasing moisture content and this trend is more noticeable at increasing relative densities. The influence of tensile strength in geotechnical problems was also examined by considering a simple rigid circular footing in sandy soil. It clearly shows that a small amount of tensile strength can significantly enhance the stability of a geotechnical system.

최근 휘어짐이 가능한 flexible display의 개발이 활발히 진행됨에 따라 OLED(organic light emitting diode)의 발전 가능성은 커지고 있다. 하지만 cathode 재료인 Cr, Al등은 tensile 또는 bending에 취약하다. 따라서 본 연구에서는, 인장시험용 아령모형의 PET($125\;{\mu}m$) 필름에 Al, Cr, Cr+Al을 각각 코팅하고 부분적으로 hole을 patterning함으로써 인장 시 미소크랙의 발생을 감소시켜 전기저항(R) 변화를 최소화하는 패턴형상을 design하고 세 가지 금속의 전기저항 변화를 통해 좀 더 우수한 flexible display용 금속을 찾는데 그 목적이 있다. 전극에 형성된 미세패턴의 영향과 패턴 된 hole size에 따른 전기저항의 변화를 알아보기 위해 hole size는 $50\;{\mu}m$, $30\;{\mu}m$, $10\;{\mu}m$로 제작하였고 각각의 금속막에 patterning하였다. 제작된 시편을 인장시험 장치에 설치 후 2mm/min의 속도로 인장응력을 가하면서 Load의 증가에 따른 금속막의 전기저항($\bigtriangleup$R)을 동시동작으로 측정하였다. 실험결과 인장시험 시 저항변화는 Cr이 짧은 시간에 가장 급격하게 변하였으며 다음으로 Cr+Al, Al순 이였다. 또한, hole size의 크기에 따른 전기저항의 변화는 $50\;{\mu}m$ size의 hole을 pattern한 시편이 가장 안정한 저항 변화를 보였다.

The mechanical behavior of small-sized materials has been investigated for many industrial applications, including MEMS and semiconductors. It is challenging to obtain accurate mechanical properties measurements for thin films due to several technical difficulties, including measurement of strain, specimen alignment, and fabrication. In this work, we used the micro-tensile testing unit with the real-time DIC (Digital Image Correlation) strain measurement system. This system has advantages of real time strain monitoring up to 50 nm resolution during the micro-tensile test, and ability to measure the young's modulus and Poisson's ratio at the same time. The mechanical properties of SCS (Single Crystal Silicon) are measured by uniaxial tension test from freestanding SCS which are $2.5{\mu}m$ thick, $200-500{\mu}m$ wide specimens on the (100) plane. Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio and tensile strength in the <110> direction are measured by micro-tensile testing system.

Long-term stability and delayed failure of granite were evaluated through the laboratory test based on Wilkins method and Brazilian disc test (BDT) which yields tensile strength, mode I fracture toughness and subcritical crack growth parameters. Then, the long-term strength of granite was estimated by using analytical models and long-term stability of compressed air-energy storage (CAES) pilot cavern pressurized up to 5 ~ 6 MPa was evaluated using numerical code, FRACOD with the determined subcritical crack growth parameters. The results of test and analyses showed that the subcritical crack growth index, n was determined as 29.39 and the inner pressure of 5 ~ 6 MPa had an insignificant effect on the long-term stability of pilot cavern. It was also found that the measurement and analysis of acoustic emission events can describe the accumulation of damage due to subcritical crack growth quantitatively. That is, AE monitoring can provide the current status of rock under loading if we make an identical installation condition in the field with that of the laboratory test.

나노 임프린트 기술은 기존의 광학적 리소그라피 (optical lithography) 기술보다 저렴한 비용으로 나노 구조물을 대량으로 제조할 수 있을 것으로 기대되고 있는 기술이다. 현재까지 반도체 공정기술의 주류를 이루고 있는 광학적인 리소그라피 기술은, 100nm이상의 CD(Critical Dimension)를 가지는 구조물들을 정밀하게 제조하여, 미소전자공학 (microelectronics) 소자, MEMS/MEMS, 광학소자 등의 제품들을 대량으로 생산하는 데에 널리 활용되고 있다. 반도체 소자의 고집적화 경향에 따라 100 nm 이하의 CD를 가지는 나노 구조물들을 제조할 필요성이 높아지고 있지만, 광학적인 방법으로는 광원의 파장보다 작은 구조물들을 제조하기가 어렵다. 보다 짧은 파장을 가지는 광원을 이용하는 리소그라피 장비가 계속적으로 개발되고 있으나, 그에 따른 장비 비용 및 제조 단가가 기하급수적으로 증가하고 있다.(중략)
