Structures of interfacial waves in nearly-horizontal countercurrent stratified air-water flow have been measured by means of a needle contact method. Based upon a statistical analysis for the liquid film distribution, statistical properties of the waves such as mean film thickness, mean wave amplitude and rms value of the wave fluctuation have been calculated. The results show that the film distribution can be described by a Gaussian probability density function for the three-dimensional wave regime. It is also indicated that the mean film thick ness and the rms value of the wave fluctuation increase as gas and liquid flow rates are increased in countercurrent two-phase flow. The dimensionless intensity of the wave fluctuation may be regarded as a function of the Froude number and the dimensionless mean film thickness.

현재 반도체시장의 확장으로 인해서 기존의 300mm 웨이퍼에서 450mm의 웨이퍼를 사용하는 공정으로 변화하는 추세이다. 450mm 웨이퍼로 대면적 화되면서 기존 300mm 공정 때보다 훨씬 효율적인 플라즈마 소스 즉, 고밀도이고, 고균등화(high uniformity) 플라즈마 소스를 필요로 한다. 본 논문에서는 고밀도 플라즈마 소스인 유도 결합형 플라즈마(Inductively Coupled Plasma ; ICP)에 축 방향의 약한 자기장을 인가시킨 자화된 유도결합형 플라즈마(Magnetized Inductively Coupled Plasma : MICP)[1]를 제안하여 기존 ICP와의 차이점을 살펴보았다. 실험 방법으로 레이저 유기 형광법(Laser Induced Fluorescence : LIF)[2]을 이용하여 플라즈마 쉬스(Sheath) 내의 전기장을 외부 자기장의 변화에 따라 높이별로 측정하고 그 결과로부터 쉬스의 전기적 특성을 살펴보았다. 플라즈마의 특성상 탐침이나 전극에 전압을 인가하면 그 주위로 디바이 차폐(Debye Shielding)현상이 일어나서 플라즈마 왜곡이 일어난다. 그렇기에 플라즈마, 특히 플라즈마 쉬스의 특성을 파악하기 위해서 레이저라는 기술을 사용하였다. 레이저는 고가의 장비이고 그 사용에 많은 경험지식(know-how)를 필요로 하지만 플라즈마를 왜곡시키지 않고, 플라즈마의 밀도, 온도, 전기장 등 많은 상수(parameter)들을 얻어 낼 수 있다. 또한 3차원적으로 높은 분해능을 가지고 있는 장점이 있다. 강한 전기장이 있는 곳에서 입자들의 고에너지 준위가 전기장의 세기에 비례하여 분리되는 Stark effect[3] 이론을 이용하여 플라즈마 쉬스내의 전기장을 측정하였다. 실험은 헬륨가스 700mTorr 압력에서 이루어졌다. 기판의 파워를 50W에서 300W까지 변화시키면서 기판에 생기는 쉬스의 전기장의 변화를 살펴보았고, 자기장을 인가한 후 동일한 실험을 하여 자기장의 유무에 따른 플라즈마 쉬스의 전기장 변화를 살펴보았다. 실험결과 플라즈마 쉬스의 전기장의 변화는 기판의 파워와 플라즈마 밀도에 크게 의존함을 알았다. 기판의 파워가 커질수록 쉬스의 전기장은 커지고, 기판에 생기는 Self Bias Voltage역시 음의 방향으로 커짐을 확인 하였다. 또한 자기장을 걸어주었을 경우 쉬스의 두께가 얇아짐으로써 플라즈마의 밀도가 증가했음을 확인 할 수 있었다.

River sand has generally used for the backfill material of underground power cables. The thermal resistivity of it has $150^{\circ}C$-cm/Watt in wet condition and more than double in dry condition. The final goal of this study is to find the backfill material which has a small change in thermal resistivity with various water contents, for example thermal resistivity is $50^{\circ}C$-cm/Watt and $100^{\circ}C$-cm/Watt in wet and dry conditions respectively. In this study it is presented that the comparison of thermal resistivity using stone powder, crush rock, weathered granite soil and Jumunjin sand as well as river sand in the needle method regarding water content, dry unit weight and particle size distribution. As a result, the thermal resistivity of a material is minimized when they have maximum dry unit weight at optimum moisture content and maximum density by appropriately mixing materials for particle size distribution. Therefore thermal resistivity characteristics should be considered two factors: one is the difference between natural dry condition and dry state after optimum moisture content, and the other is the difference between unit weight of raw material and maximum dry density.

Characteristics of bubbling behavior and bubble properties were investigated in a gas-liquid countercurrent bubble column of in diameter 0.152 m and 3.5 m in height, respectively. Effects of gas and liquid velocities and bubble distribution mode(even, wall-side, central or asymmetric distribution) on the bubble properties such as chord length, frequency, rising velocity and holdup in the reactor were measured and examined by means of dual resistivity probe method. The bubble size, frequency and holdup increased with increasing gas($U_G$) or liquid velocity($U_L$). The rising velocity of bubbles increased with increasing $U_G$, whereas decreased with increasing $U_L$. The uniformity of bubble size distribution and bubble holdup decreased when the distribution mode of bubbles at the gas distributor was changed from even to wall-side, central or asymmetric. The central distribution of bubbles was better than asymmetric mode but worse than wall-side distribution, in considering the bubble holdup and uniformity of distribution.

The physical and electrical characteristics of MgO and Pt thin-films on it, deposited by reactive sputtering and rf magnetron sputtering, respectively, were analyzed with annealing temperature and time by four-point probe, SEM and XRD. Under annealing conditions of $1000^{\circ}C$ and 2 hr, MgO thin-film had the properties of improving Pt adhesion to $SiO_2$ and insulation without chemical reaction to Pt thin-film, and the sheet resistivity and the resistivity of Pt thin-film deposited on it were $0.1288\;{\Omega}/{\square}$ and $12.88\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$, respectively. We made Pt resistance pattern on $SiO_2$/Si substrate by lift-off method and fabricated thin-film type Pt-RTD(resistance thermometer device) for micro thermal sensors by Pt-wire, Pt-paste and SOG(spin-on-glass). In the temperature range of $25{\sim}400^{\circ}C$, the TCR value of fabricated Pt-RTD with thickness of $1.0{\mu}m$ was $3927\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ close to the Pt bulk value. Resistance values were varied linearly within the range of measurement temperature.

$Cu_2ZnSnSe_4$(CZTSe) is emerged as a promising material for thin-film solar cells because of non-toxic, inexpensive and earth abundant more than $Cu(In,Ga)Se_2$ materials. For fabricating compound semiconductor thin-film solar cells, CdS is widely used for a buffer layer which fabricated by a chemical bath deposition method (CBD). Through the experiment, we controlled deposition temperature and mol ratio of solution conditions to find the proper grain 크기 and exact composition. The optimum CdS layers were characterized in terms of surface morphology by using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The optimized CdS layer process was applied on CZTSe thin-films. The thickness of buffer layer related with device performance of solar cells which controlled by deposition time. Local surface potential of CdS/CZTSe thin-films was investigated by Kelvin probe force microscopy (KPFM). From these results, we can deduce local electric properties with different thickness of buffer layer on CZTSe thin-films. Therefore, we investigated the effect of CdS buffer layer thickness on the CZTSe thin-films for decreasing device losses. From this study, we can suggest buffer layer thickness which contributes to efficiencies and device performance of CZTSe thin-film solar cells.

In the present study, oligonucleotide probes based on 16S rRNA were taken to investigate the diversity of oral spirochetes without culture method. This is the first study that revealed oral spirochetes of both presently cultivable and uncultured oral spirochetes in Korean adult periodontitis patients. Subgingival plaque samples were taken from diseased sites(probing depth ${\geq}6\;mm$, experimental group, n=116) and healthy sites(probing depth${\leq}3mm$, control 1 group, n=28) in 29 patients with adult periodontitis, and from 20 periodontally healthy subjects(probing depth${\leq}3mm$, control 2 group, n=100). Following being examined under phase-contrast microscope, all samples were submitted to dot-blot hybridization after polymerase chain reacton with eubacterial primers. 5 species-specific probes(TVIN, TDEN, TMAL, TSOC, and TPEC) and 7 group-specific probes(TRE I, TRE II, TRE III, TRE IV, TRE V, TRE VI, and TRE VII) were used one by one for the identification of both cultivable and so far uncultivable oral spirochetes. All probes were labeled with digoxigenin(DIG)-ddUTP and detected by chemilumininescence. The following results were obtained. 1. Under phase-contrast microscope, 91.37% and 14.28% of oral spirochetes were observed in the experimental and control 1 groups, respectively. None of oral spirochetes were observed in control 2 group. 2. With universal probe, 98.27%, 46.42%, and 22.0% of oral spirochetes were observed in experimental, control 1, and control 2 groups, respectively. 3. With specific probe, 95.68%, 35.71%, and 19.0% of oral spirochetes were observed in experimental, control 1, and control 2 groups, respectively. 4. With species-specific probes, T. socranskii were recovered in a high percentage of sites(81.89%) examined, followed by T. maltophilum(50.0%), T. vincentii(36.20%), T. denticola(13.79%), respectively. With group- specific probes, TRE IV was recovered in a high percentage of sites(85.34%) examined, followed by TRE II(77.58%), TRE I(56.89%), TRE III(25.86%), TRE VI(5.17%), and TRE V(2.58%), respectively. 5. T. vincentii were only observed in the diseased sites, not in the healthy sites. 6. Neither T. pectinovorum nor group VII oral spirochetes were observed in any sites. The findings warrant further investgations of the recovered spirochetes to elucidate the possible associations of oral spirochetal prevalence in race and types of periodontitis, pathogenesis of T. vincentii and the possible distributional change of oral spirochetes before and after treatments.

The anti-reflective anti-static(ARAS) optical film Was designed using conducting layer $TiN_x$ by Essential Macleod program. From this results, [air ${TiN_x{\mid}SiO_2{\mid}$ glass] two layer shows wide-band AR coating in the wavelength range of 450~700 nm. The $TiN_x$ thin films were prepared on the glass substrate by RF(radio-freqency) magnetron sputtering apparatus from a Ti target in agaseous mixture of argon and nitrogen with the thickness of 7~10 nm. For the films obtained, the chemical binding energy of the films was investigated by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) in order to analyze the chemical nature and composition of the films. In addition, we investigated the relationship between the surface resistance and the chemical nature the sheet resistance and XPS depth profiling the chemical binding of the films.

Bubble properties such as size (chord length) and rising velocity were investigated in a bubble column with electrolyte solutions, of which diameter was 0.152m and 2.5m in height, respectively. The size and rising velocity of bubbles were measured by using the dual electrical resistivity probe method. Effects of gas and liquid velocities and ionic strength of liquid phase on the size and rising velocity of bubbles were determined. The bubble size increased with increasing gas velocity but decreased with increasing liquid velocity or ionic strength of liquid phase. The rising velocity of bubbles increased with increasing gas velocity and decreased with increasing ionic strength of liquid phase, however, it showed a slight maximum value with varying liquid velocity. The size and rising velocity of bubbles were well correlated with operating variables.

The underpotential deposited Bi on Pt($Bi_{upd}/Pt$) anode for formic acid fuel cells (FAFCs) was developed using multi-layered preparation method for better electrocatalytic utilization of Pt. The electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) result indicated that $Bi_{upd}$ remains through the catalyst layer during stability test. In performance test, the multilayered $Bi_{upd}$ on Pt black showed superior performance by approximately 200 mV at current density of $150mA/cm^2$ compared with PtRu black anode catalyst. Based on preparation condition of $Bi_{upd}/Pt$ black, carbon supported $Bi_{upd}/Pt/C$ electrode was prepared and it showed enhanced performance and stability.
