We have fabricated high-T$_c$ superconducting YBa$_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}\;/SrTiO_3/\;YBa_2Cu_3O_{7-{\delta}}$ (YBCO/STO/YBCO) multilayer structure on (001) $SrTiO_3$ substrate by using pulsed laser deposition technique for applying to ground plane of single flux quantum digital circuits. In this structure, the top and bottom YBCO layers were connected through the holes in the STO insulating layer. The critical temperature of the two YBCO layers connected each other was 86 K after annealing at 500 $^{\circ}C$ in $O_2$ atm for about 60 hr. This result shows that the annealing process is very important fabricating YBCO/STO/YBCO multilayer structure An experiment to optimize the fabrication process of YSCO/ST0/YBCO multilayer structure with good quality is in progress.

반도체 소자의 선폭이 감소함에 따른 금속배선의 저항이 증가하면서 반도체 배선물질을 copper로 대체하려는 연구가 진행되고 있다. 그러나 copper를 금속배선에 사용하게 되면 대기 상에서 노출 시 쉽게 산화가 일어나며 형성된 산화물의 미세조직이 치밀하지 못하여 계속적인 산화가 진행되고, 후속 열처리 공정 시 copper가 유전체로 확산되어 소자의 정상적인 작동을 방해하게 되는 문제점을 가지고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서 copper의 확산 및 산화를 방지하는 물질로 cobalt가 각광받고 있다. Cobalt는 낮은 저항과 열적 안정성이 우수하여 copper와의 연동에 문제가 없으며, 소자의 작동에도 영향을 미치지 않는다. Cobalt 박막의 적용을 위해 patterning 단계를 줄일 수 있는 선택적 증착공정의 개발도 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 우수한 층덮힘(step coverage)과 양질의 박막을 증착할 수 있는 MOCVD 공정을 이용하였고, cobalt 전구체로서 $Co(hfac)_2$ (hfac: hexafluoroacethylacetonate) 전구체와 $Co_2$ (CO)8 (CO: carbonyl) 전구체를 사용하였다. 각각의 전구체에 따라 선택적 증착이 가능한 공정조건을 찾기 위한 연구를 진행하였다.

This paper presents a study on the effects of silica coating in the production of ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ powders suitable for magnetic recording media. Emphasis has been put on investigating the relationship between the powder characteristics and the effects of silica coating in the heat-treatment stage of ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ production. After we prepared non-coated ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ and silica coated ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ with coating water glass on the surface of goethite and heattreatment process, we compared and investigated powder characteristics. As silica coated layer played a role of preventing the powders from overreduction to metal iron and rapid oxidation, silica coated ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ showed superior magnetization value due to inhibiting t!1e adulteration of ${\alpha}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ into the final product. When silica coated layer acted as a sintering restrainer, silica coated ${\gamma}-Fe_{2}O_{3}$ showed high coercivity and specific sur-face area due to good acicularity.

일반적으로 천체 망원경에 사용되는 반사경은 유리 소재로 제작된다. 그러나 알루미늄을 반사경 소재로 사용하면 광기계구조물과 반사경의 열팽창계수가 유사하여 치수 안정성이 높다는 장점이 있다. 뿐만 아니라 다이아몬드 선삭 기계 (Diamond Turning Machine, DTM)를 이용할 수 있기 때문에 반사경의 가공 시간 및 제작 비용을 절감할 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 알루미늄 합금 (Al6061-T6)을 소재로 구경 150 mm, 초점거리 600 mm인 포물면 반사경을 제작하였다. 우선 DTM을 이용해 알루미늄을 가공하였는데, 이 때 표면 조도와 관련된 고주파 오차 (High Frequency Error, HFE)가 발생한다. 따라서 표면 조도를 향상시키기 위한 추가적인 공정으로써 가공된 표면을 도금한 후 열처리를 하고, 폴리싱과 이중 코팅을 거쳐서 최종 반사경을 얻었다. 각 단계별 공정을 마친 후에는 접촉식 및 광학식 형상 측정 방법으로 표면 측정을 실시하여 이를 분석하였다. 본 발표에서는 각 공정 단계에서의 반사경 표면 분석 결과를 설명할 것이며, 제작된 알루미늄 반사경과 기존의 유리 소재의 반사경을 성능 면에서 비교할 것이다.

An attempt was made to evaluate the changes of microstructures and mechanical properties with increasing aging time in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel. In this study, it was verified the feasibility of the evaluation for degraded 2.25Cr-1Mo steel by isothermal heat treatment at $630^{\circ}C$ up to 1,000 hours using surface SH wave and investigated the change of attenuation coefficient and propagation time. Attenuation coefficient had a tendency to increase according to degradation and propagation time drastically in the beginning of deterioration. A good correlation between ultrasonic attenuation coefficient and hardness was found, which made sure that attenuation coefficient is an potential parameter for evaluation of aging degradation. In addition, it has verified experimentally the frequency dependence of ultrasonic group velocity and attenuation coefficient using wavelet transform.

Porous nanofibers comprising hollow ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanospheres were prepared by applying both template method and Kirkendall diffusion effect to electrospinning process. During heat-treatment processes, the solid Fe nano-metals formed by initial heat-treatment in the carbon matrix were converted into the hollow structured ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanospheres. In particular, PS nanobeads added in the spinning solution were decomposed and formed numerous channels in the composite, which served as a good pathway for Kirkendall diffusion gas. The resulting porous nanofibers comprising hollow ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanospheres were applied as an anode material for lithium-ion batteries. The discharge capacities of the nanofibers for the 30th cycle at a high current density of $1.0A\;g^{-1}$ was $776mA\;h\;g^{-1}$. The good lithium ion storage property was attributed to the synergetic effects of the hollow ${\alpha}-Fe_2O_3$ nanospheres and the interstitial nanovoids between the nanospheres. The synthetic method proposed in this study could be applied to the preparation of porous nanofibers comprising hollow nanospheres with various composition for various applications, including energy storage.

In this study, various influent sludge pre-treatment methods were adopted to investigate their effects on the sludge digestion and methane production in combined mesophilic anaerobic and thermophilic aerobic sludge digestion process. A lab-scale sewage sludge digestion process was operated during 4 phases using different feed sludge pre-treatment strategies. In phase 1, feed sludge was supplied without any pre-treatment. In contrast, in phases 2, 3 and 4, thermal, thermal-alkaline and long time alkaline treatment (7 days) were applied to influent sludge, respectively. With sludge pre-treatment, TCOD removal was drastically increased from 44% to 76% from phases 1 to 4, respectively. Also, pre-treatment of feed sludge significantly improved the methane production rate of MAD, showing an increment from 101 to 165-256mL/L/day. Meanwhile, TCOD removal and methane production at phase 4 were not increased, compared to those at phase 3. Based on the experimental results, it was concluded that pre-treatment of feed sludge significantly increases the efficiency of sludge digestion and thermal-alkaline method was the most effective method among the pre-treatment methods examined.

Anaerobic digestion has been widely used for the treatment of sludge, which is generated from the municipal and industrial wastewater treatment, for its volume reduction and methane production. Many researches on sludge pre-treatment have been carried out in order to enhance the performance of anaerobic digestion by increasing the hydrolysis of sludge which is the rate limiting step of anaerobic digestion. In this study, the effect of pre-treatment on sludge hydrolysis(solubilization), methane production and sludge reduction by anaerobic digestion after thermal, ultrasonic, and thermal-alkali sludge treatment were compared. Thermal-alkali treatment showed 67 and 70% solubilization with municipal and industrial wastewater sludge, respectively, while ultrasonic treatment and thermal treatment gave similar solubilization efficiency of 40% or more. Methane content of the anaerobic digestion gas reached 45~70% and pretreated sludge gave higher methane content than the control sludge. Methane production of thermal, ultrasonic, and thermal-alkali pre-treatment gave 2.6, 2.7, 3.5 times of municipal control sludge and 3.5, 4.1, 4.2 times of industrial control sludge, respectively. Sludge reduction of pre-treated sludge after anaerobic digestion gave 5~19% point higher than that of control sludge, and thermal-alkali treatment showed higher reduction efficiency than thermal and ultrasonic treatment. The results proved that pre-treatment contributed significantly not only for the methane production but also for the cost reduction of sludge treatment and disposal, and thermal-alkali treatment gave the best performance for the sludge treatment.

The crystallographic and magnetic properties of the system of $Fe_{1-x}Co_x$(x=0.2 and 0.4) prepared by microwave arc-melting with the maximum power of 3.5 kW and a iron-foil with thickness of 25 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ have been studied by the methods of X-ray diffraction and the measurement of the magnetic hysteresis using the vibrating sample magnetometer at room temperature. The samples were prepared in three different ways: First, pellet form pressed under the pressure of 9,000 N/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Second, the sheet cold rolled. Third, thin sheet treated with the temperature of 90$0^{\circ}C$. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the sample prepared by the first method shows that the crystal structure of the sample is bcc as same as that of Fe with a good uniformity. The iron-foil has the coercivity of 43 Oe and the initial slope of magnetization of 0.328 emu/gOe. The coervicity and magnetization of the sample prepared by the second method increased as the Co content increased. But the initial slop of the magnetization decreased as the Co content increased. This means that the displacement of domain wall is suppressed by the increases of coercivity as the Co content increased. The saturation magnetization of the samples made by the third method increased. On the other hand, the coercivity of these samples decreased. The increase of saturation magnetization of the samples seems to be related to the changes in X-ray intensity after heat treatment. Also some magnetic parameters of the samples were calculated by using a simple model and compared with other values.

The objective of this study was to investigate physicochemical and antioxidant characteristics of immature flat persimmon during 7 heat treatment aging steps. The pH decreased, and hence, acidity increased with aging. Hunter L value decreased with aging. The a value rapidly increased until step 3, whereas the b value decreased. Fructose content decreased while glucose contents slightly increased during aging. Hardness, chewiness and gumminess rapidly decreased, indicating softening in texture, but it was negligible after aging step 3. Phenolic compounds including gallic acid and homogentisic acid were detected at step 3 and then gradually increased with aging. However, contents of flavonoid and tannin were much higher in step 1 sample than others. The antioxidant activities observed by DPPH, ABTS, and FRAP assay were the highest at step 1 possibly due to the higher levels of flavonoids and tannin acid in the step 1 sample.
