2-Pyridinecarboxaldehyde thiocarbohydrazone(PyTC) have been reacted with $Cu^{2+}$ to form $[Cu(PyTC)H_2O)]SO_4$. This complex is soluble in water and polar organic solvents. The complex has been characterized by elemental analysis, conductivity, effective magnetic moment, and spectroscopic data. From the results the complex is square planar. The colorimetric determination of Cu(II) ion by using PyTC as a ligand was studied. The solution of copper(II) with PyTC was obeyed Beer's law in concentration up to $2.9{\times}10^{-4}M$ at pH 4.

DC feeding system is mainly floating but rail potential and leakage current are due to long parallelism between rails and ground, namely rail resistance and rail to ground conductance. Rail potential causes electric shock to human and rail leakage current causes electrolytic corrosion to nearby the buried metals. Therefore the design technologies to reduce, protect and monitor these effects are important in recent DC feeding system. Rail potential and leakage current are analysed based on propagation theory that is utilized. Monitoring and controlling rail leakage current is proposed in order to maintain rail resistance and rail to ground conductance.

A hybrid supercapacitor consisting of Co-Mn oxide as a cathode, activated carbon as an anode, and 6 M KOH as a electrolyte was fabricated and its supercapacitor performance was investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry. The prepared supercapacitor showed the specific capacitance of 67.3 F/g, energy density of 18.3 Wh/kg, and power density of 237.7 kW/kg, respectively. It means that the supercapacitor can be used for the practical applications.

This paper describes one of the hot issues in solar cell studies, dye-sensitized solar cell. DSSC is a kind of photoelectrochemical cells. Therefore, it is quite different from the conventional solar cells which originate from pn semiconductor theory, although its mechanism can be explained with the theory. This paper describes the difference between the conventional semiconductor approaches and a newly adapted one for DSSC. Especially, electrochemical analysis methods such as electrochemical impedance analysis and cyclic voltammogram are briefly introduced, which are commonly used for DSSC analysis.

The purpose of this paper is to suggest IDE (Incremental Displacement Estimation) algorithm for the previously proposed visually servoed paired structured light system. The system is composed of two sides facing with each other, each with one or two lasers with a 2-DOF manipulator, a camera, and a screen. The 6-DOF displacement between two sides can be estimated by calculating the positions of the projected laser beams and rotation angles of the manipulators. In the previous study, Newton-Raphson or EKF (Extended Kalman Filter) has been used as an estimation algorithm. Although the various experimental tests have validated the performance of the system and estimation algorithms, the computation time is relatively long since aforementioned algorithms are iterative methods. Therefore, in this paper, a non-iterative incremental displacement estimation algorithm which updates the previously estimated displacement with a difference of the previous and the current observed data is introduced. To verify the performance of the algorithm, experimental tests have been performed. The results show that the proposed non-iterative algorithm estimates the displacement with the same level of accuracy compared to the EKF with multiple iterations with significantly less computation time.

The effects of electrolytes on color fastness properties of cotton fabric with Congo Red have been studied at $90^{\circ}C$. Each dyeing carried with $10 \times 10^{-6}M$ of Congo Red and with various concentration of electrolytes. The results obtained from this study were as follow 1. In the case of none, the fastness to washing became worse, but the fastness to light better with increasing dye concentration. 2. In the case of additing an electrolyte, the fastness to washing became worse and the fastness to light better than the case of none. The samples had become yellower after washing test. Yellowness had been reduced after fade-O-meter test. 3. What kind of electrolytes could not have any effect on the fastness to washing, but they influenced the fastness to light in the order of LiCl

This study has been focused on application of ELID mirror-surface grinding technology for manufacturing single crystal optic sapphire. Single crystal sapphire is a superior material with optic properties of high performance as light transmission, thermal conductivity, hardness and so on. Mirror-surface machining technology is necessary to use sapphire as optic parts. The ELID grinding system has been set up for machining of the sapphire material. According to the ELID experimental results, it shows that the surface of sapphire can be eliminated by metal bonded wheel with micron abrasives and the surface roughness of 60nmRa can be gotten using grinding wheel of 2,000 mesh in 4.5um, depth of cut. In this study, the chemical experiments after ELID grinding also has been conducted to check chemical reaction between workpiece and grinding wheel on ELID grinding process. It shows that the chemical reaction has not happened as the results of the chemical experiments.

Gd-doped $CeO_2$, ultrafine powders were synthesized by the glycine-nitrate process and then their sintering and electrical characteristics were analysed using the dilatometric and AC impedance measurements. In the dilatometric measurements green bodies from the synthesized powders after milling shrinked to about $1470^{\circ}C$ in appearance and then expanded thermally with the increase of the heating temperature, whereas those from the synthesized powders before milling continuously shrinked to the temperatures of $1600^{\circ}C$. It may be due to the change of the packing density of the synthesized powders by milling. In the AC impedance measurements, the electrical resistivity of the Gd-doped $CeO_2$ bodies from the as-milled powders, sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ with the increase of the sintering time, showed the minimum value at the sintering time of 10h. The minimum total resistivity of the Gd-doped $CeO_2$ bodies sintered at $1500^{\circ}C$ for 10h seems to result from the lowest activation energy by the combination between the activation energies for the resistivities at the grain interior and grain boundary.

In this research, two thin film deposition techniques, Atomic Layer Deposition and Sputtering are carried out for the fabrication of Yittria Stabilized Zirconia electrolyte for thin film Solid Oxide Fuel Cell. Zirconium to Yittrium ratio for both cases is about 1/8. Scanning Electron Microscope(SEM) image shows that the growth rate per hour for Atomic Layer Deposition is faster than for sputtering. X-ray Photo-electron Spectroscopy(XPS) shows that the peaks of both Zirconia and Yittria shift towards higher bending energy for the case of Atomic Layer deposition and thus are more strongly attached to the substrate. Later, Nyquist plot was used to compare the conductivity of Yittria Stabilized Electrolyte for both cases. The conductivity at $300^{\circ}C$ for Atomic Layer Deposited Yittria Stabilized Zirconia is found to be $5{\times}10^{-4}S/cm$ while that for sputtered Yittria Stabilized Zirconia is $2{\times}10^{-5}S/cm$ at the same temperature. The reason for better performance for Atomic Layered YSZ is believed to be the Nano-structured layer fabrication that aids in along the plane conduction as compared to the columnarly structured Sputtered YSZ.

반도체 공정에서 단위소자의 고속화를 구현하기 위한 금속배선공정에 사용되는 금속재료가 최근에 Al에서 구리로 전환됨에 따라, 향후에는 모든 디바이스가 구리를 주요 배선재료로 사용할 것으로 예측되고 있다. 이러한 구리 배선재료의 도입은 미세화와 박막화라는 관점에서 습식 방법임에도 불구하고 전기도금 방법이 반도체 구리 배선공정에 적용되는 획기적인 변화를 이끌어냈다. 이에 전기도금 방법으로 생산된 구리박막에 대한 요구사항이 증가되고 있다. 전기도금으로 구리박막을 성장시킴에 있어 도금 전해액, 유기첨가제, Anode 물질의 변화는 전착된 구리 박막의 미세구조 및 화학적 구조와 전착률, 비저항 등의 물리적 전기적 특성을 다양하게 변화시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 Anode 물질 변화에 따라 Anode 표면에 형성된 불순물막(Passivation layer) 및 전착된 구리박막의 특성을 조사하였다. Anode는 soluble type과 insoluble type으로 나누어 실험을 진행하였다. Anode 물질 변화에 따른, 구리 박막의 물리적 특성을 조사하기 위하여 XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy)로 화학조성 및 불순물에 대해 분석하였다. 그리고 FE-SEM (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope)를 이용하여 전착박막의 두께를 조사 하고 AFM (Atomic Force Microscope)을 이용하여 표면 거칠기를 측정하였다. 또한 전기적 특성을 조사하기 위해 4-point probe를 사용하여 구리 전착박막의 표면저항(sheet resistance)을 측정하였다.
