전기화학과 초고진공(ultra-high vacuum, UHV) 분광법을 이용하여 고체/액체의 계면에서 일어나는 현상을 분자단위에서 이해하고 조절하기 위한 연구를 수행하였다. 이들 중 전기화학으로 형성된 구리 및 은 금속(sub)monlayer 박막을 그 예로 선택하여 소개한다. 초박막 금속의 흡착량은 cyclic voltammogram과 새로 개발된 Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) 정량법을 통해 얻어졌고, 이 값들은 low energy electron diffraction (LEED) 및 in-situ atomic force microscopy (AFM)법을 이용한 구조 분석결과와 비교되어졌다. 또한 화학상태를 확인하기 위하여 core-level electron energyy loss spectroscopy (CEELS)를 사용하였다. 먼저 황산 전해질에서 금(111) 단결정 전극상에 전기화학적으로 형성된 굴의 계면특성을 조사하였다. 특정 전위값에서 2/3 ML의 구리와 1/3 ML의 음이온이 상호 흡착하여 ({{{{ SQRT { 3} }}$\times${{{{ SQRT { 3} }}) 격자 구조를 보였고, 전위값이 커지거나 줄어들면, 이 구조가 사라지는 현상이 관찰되었다. 즉 이 ({{{{ SQRT { 3} }}}}$\times${{{{ SQRT { 3} }}}}) 흡착구조는 첫 번째 UPD underpotential deposition) 피크에 특이하게 관련되어 있음을 알 수 있었다. 금속 초박막 형성에 미치는 음이온의 영향을 좀 더 확인하기 위해 초박막 은이 증착된 금 단결정 전극상의 황산 음이온에 관하여 연구하였다. 은의 증착이 일어날 수 없는 양전위값 영역에서 ({{{{ SQRT { 3} }}}}$\times${{{{ SQRT { 3} }}}})의 규칙적인 음이온의 구조를 보였다. 그리고 은의 장착은 세척 과정과 용액의 농도에 따라 p(3$\times$3)과 p(5$\times$5)의 규칙적인 두가지 구조를 가졌다. in-situ AFM에서는 p(3$\times$3)의 은 증착 구조만 나타났고, 음 전위값으로 옮겨가면 p(1$\times$1) 구조로 바뀌었다. ex-situ 초고진공 결과와 이 AFM의 in-situ 결과를 상호 비교 논의할 것이다. 음이온의 흡착이 없는 묽은 플로르산(HF) 전해질에서 은은 전위값을 음전위 쪽으로 이동해 감에 따라 p(3$\times$3), p(5$\times$5), (5$\times$5), (6$\times$6), 그리고 (1$\times$1)의 연속적 구조 변화를 보였다. 이 다양한 구조들을 AES로부터 얻어진 표면 흡착량과 연결시켰더니 정량적으로 잘 일치되는 결과를 보였다. 전기화학적인 증착에서는 기존의 진공 증착과 비교할 때 음이온의 공흡착이 금속 초박막 형성 메카니즘에 큰 영향을 미침을 알 수 있었다. 또한 은의 전기화학적 다층박막 성장은 MSM (monolayer-simultaneous-multilayer) 메카니즘을 따름을 확인하였다. 마지막으로 구조 및 양이 규칙적으로 조절되는 전극의 응용가능성이 간단히 논의될 것이다.

The thermodynamic parameters for the interaction of metal ions with dibenzo-16-crown-5 and its derivatives have been determined by solution calorimetry in methanol at 25$^{\circ}C$. Thermodynamic properties of log K, ${\Delta}H$, and $T{\Delta}S$ have been determined for the complexation of metal cations by dibenzo-16-crown-5 and its derivatives. Dibenzo-16-crown-5 and its derivatives have been studied as metal cations carrier in bulk liquid membrane (BLM) and supported liquid membrane (SLM) system. $Ag^+$ has been much more transported using dibenzo-16-crown-5 derivatives as carriers and several other metal cations have been small transported using carrier in BLM and SLM system. Ligand structure, the length of side arm, donor atom, stability constant, and carrier concentration are also important parameters in the transport of cations.

The room-temperature electrodeposition of metallic lithium was investigated from ionic liquid, 1-methyl-1-propylpiperidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PP13TFSI) with lithium bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) as a lithium source. Cyclic voltammograms on gold working electrode showed the possibility of the electrodeposition of metallic lithium, and the reduction current on a gold electrode was higher than the value on platinum and copper. The metallic lithium could be electrodeposited on the gold electrode under potentiostatic condition at -2.4 V (vs. Pt-QRE) and was confirmed by analytical techniques including XRD and SEM-EDS. The dendrite-typed electrodeposits were composed of a metallic lithium and a alloy with gold substrate. And any impurity could be detected except for trace oxygen introduced during handling for the analyses.

Silicon carbide is considered to be a potentially useful material for high-temperature electronic devices, as its band gap is larger than that of silicon and the p-type and/or n-type conduction can be controlled by impurity doping. Particularly, porous n-type SiC ceramics fabricated from ${\beta}-SiC$ powder have been found to show a high thermoelectric conversion efficiency in the temperature region of $800^{\circ}C$ to $1000^{\circ}C$. For the application of SiC thermoelectric semiconductors, their figure of merit is an essential parameter, and high temperature (above $800^{\circ}C$) electrodes constitute an essential element. Generally, ceramics are not wetted by most conventional braze metals,. but alloying them with reactive additives can change their interfacial chemistries and promote both wetting and bonding. If a liquid is to wet a solid surface, the energy of the liquid-solid interface must be less than that of the solid, in which case there will be a driving force for the liquid to spread over the solid surface and to enter the capillary gaps. Consequently, using Ag with a relatively low melting point, the junction of the porous SiC semiconductor-Ag and/or its alloy-SiC and/or alumina substrate was studied. Ag-20Ti-20Cu filler metal showed promise as the high temperature electrode for SiC semiconductors.

Copper recovery from waste water of electronic industry has been conducted effectively in a fluidized bed reactor. Initial concentration of copper in the waste water, liquid flow rate in the reactor, reaction temperature and time and current density between the cathode and anode in the reactor have been selected as operating variables. The effects of operating variables on the recovery of copper have been studied. It has found that the copper resolved in the waste water can be recovered continuously by means of a fluidized bed reactor The recovery of copper decreased with an increase in the initial concentration of copper in the waste water, while it increased with increasing reaction time and current density, however, it exhibited its maximum value with the variations of liquid flow rate and reaction temperature. The optimum reaction condition to maintain the copper recovery around 85% is as follows ; $X_o=3wt%$, $U_L=0.5cm/s$, $T=25^{\circ}C$, $I=7A/dm^2$ and t=2hrs within this experimental condition.

우리에게 잘 알려져 있지 않은 강장동물 히드라는 뛰어난 세포 분열 능력을 가지고 있다. 출아(무성생식)를 하면서도 환경에 따라 유성생식을 하기도 하는 몇 안 되는 생물 중 하나인 히드라는 재생능력이 강하여 몸의 200분의 1만 잘려도 재생을 할 수 있는 능력을 가지고 있다. 이러한 히드라의 재생능력을 높은 에너지인 플라즈마에 노출시켜 보았다. 플라즈마는 열, 빛, 화학 활성종, 이온, 전자를 발생하며 이 중 열 및 화학적 자극을 중심으로 관찰하였다. 생물이 수용할 수 있는 열에너지를 넘게 받는다면 그 성질이 변하는 점을 이용해 액체 방전소스를 이용하여 플라즈마의 열적인 효과를 주었고, DBD소스로는 약 염기를 띠는 라디칼(활성종)용액을 배양액으로 만들어 히드라에게 배양시켜 히드라의 생장능력 변화를 알아보았다. 생장능력의 변화는 히드라의 개체 수를 통해 관찰하였다. 플라즈마를 발생시키는 소스는 다양하며 그 중 이번 실험에서는 액체 방전 소스와 DBD를 이용하였다. 액체방전 소스는 누전을 막기 위해 세라믹 관에 금속선을 넣어 고전압을 인가하여 방전하였고, DBD(Dielectric Barrier Discharge의 약어)는 유전체 장벽을 이용하여 기체를 방전시키는 방식이다. DBD는 주로 살균 용도로 연구 중이며, DBD는 주변 기체들을 반응시켜 라디칼을 상당히 만들어 낼 수가 있다. 한편, 생물학에서 주목 받고 있는 히드라는 200분의 1만 잘려도 재생이 되는 재생능력을 갖고 있다. 히드라의 이러한 생장 및 재생속도는 생체모방 기술로도 주목을 받고 있다. 이번 실험은 최근 연구되고 있는 플라즈마의 효과를 히드라에 적용한 것으로 플라즈마의 간접적인 영향이 히드라에 어떠한 영향을 줄 것인지 알아보았다. 간접적인 영향으로는 크게 열적인 요인과 화학적인 요인으로 나누어 관찰하였다. 실험을 통해 히드라의 변화를 알아보고 그 결과가 실용가능한지를 알아보고자 한다.

In this study, the progressive inelastic deformation, so called, thermal ratchet phenomenon which can occur in high temperature structures of liquid metal reactor was simulated with thermal ratchet structural test facility and 316L stainless steel test cylinder. The thermal ratchet deformation at the reactor baffle cylinder of the liquid metal reactor can occur due to the moving temperature distribution along the axial direction as the sodium free surface moves up and down under the cyclic heat-up and cool-down transients. The ratchet deformation was measured with the laser displacement sensor and LVDTs after cooling the structural specimen which is heated up to 55$0^{\circ}C$ with steep temperature gradients along the axial direction. The temperature distribution of the test cylinder along the axial direction was measured with 28 channels of thermocouples and was used for the ratchet analysis. The thermal ratchet deformation was analyzed with the constitutive equation of nonlinear combined hardening model which was implemented as ABAQUS user subroutine and the analysis results were compared with those of the test. Thermal ratchet load was applied 9 times and the residual displacement after 9 cycles of thermal load was measured to be 1.79mm. The ratcheting deformation shapes obtained by the analysis with the combined hardening model were in reasonable agreement with those of the structural tests.

For the seismic design and analysis of LMR(liquid metal reactor) being developed in Korea, it is necessary to develop the simple seismic analysis model including the fluid-structure interaction effects. In this paper, the theoretical backgrounds for the fluid added mass of the immersed concentric cylinders are investigated and the seismic analysis code using the Runge-Kutta algorithm, which can consider the fluid added mass matrix in system matrix, are developed to perform the time history seismic analysis. Form the coupled modal analysis and the seismic analysis for the simple immersed concentric cylinders, it is verified that the fluid added mass significantly affect the vibration characteristics and the seismic responses. Therefore the fluid coupled effects should be carefully considered in seismic response analysis of the immersed concentric cylinders.

The inelastic deformation of the reactor baffle cylinder can occur due to the moving temperature distribution along the axial direction as the hot free surface moves up and down under the cyclic heat-up and cool-down of reactor operations. The ratchet deformations were measured with the laser displacement sensor and LVDTs after cooling the structural specimen which experiences thermal load up to $550^{\circ}$ and the temperature differences of about $500^{\circ}C$. During structural thermal ratchet test, the temperature distribution of the test cylinder along the axial direction was measured from 28 channels of thermocouples and the temperatures were used for the ratchet analysis. The thermal ratchet deformation analysis was performed with the NONSTA code whose constitutive model is nonlinear combined kinematic and isotropic hardening model and the test results were compared with those of the analysis. Thermal ratchet test was carried out with respect to 9 cycles of thermal loading and the maximum residual displacements were measured to be 1.8mm. It was shown that thermal ratchet load can cause a progressive deformation to the reactor structure. The analysis results with the combined hardening model were in reasonable agreement with those of the tests.

Small water leak experiment was carried out in liquid sodium atmosphere using a specimen of ferrite steel, which will be expected to be a material of the heat transfer tube of liquid metal fast breeder reactor. Self-plugging phenomena of leak path could be explained by the products of reaction and corrosion by sodium-water reaction. Also, re-opening mechanism of self-plugged path could be explained by the thermal transient and vibration of heat transfer tube. As a result, perfect re-opening time of self-plugged leak path was observed to be 129 minutes after water leak initiation. Re-opening shape of a specimen was appeared with double layer of circular type, and re-opening size of this specimen surface was about 2 mm diameter on sodium side.
