Aluminum oxide($Al_2{O_3}$) offers some unique advantages over the conventional silicon dioxide( $SiO_{2}$) gate insulator: greater resistance to ionic motion, better radiation hardness, possibility of obtaining low threshold voltage MOS FETs, and possibility of use as the gate insulator in nonvolatile memory devices. We have undertaken a study of the dielectric breakdown of $Al_2{O_3}$ on Si deposited by GAIVBE technique. In our experiments, we have varied the $Al_2{O_3}$ thickness from 300.angs. to 1400.angs. The resistivity of $Al_2{O_3}$ films varies from 108 ohm-cm for films less than 100.angs. to 10$_{13}$ ohm-cm for flims on the order of 1000.angs. The flat band shift is positive, indicating negative charging of oxide. The magnitude of the flat band shift is less for negative bias than for positive bias. The relative dielectric constant was 8.5-10.5 and the electric breakdown fields were 6-7 MV/cm(+bias) and 11-12 MV/cm (-bias).

Mechanical properties of $Al/Al_2O_3$ and $Al/B_4C$ composites prepared through powder metallurgy are estimated up to 50% $Al_2O_3$ and 35% $B_4C$ weight fractions using micromechanics models and experiments. The experimental Young's modulus up to 0.40 weight fraction of ceramic is found to lie closely between Ravichandran's/Hashin-Shtrikman lower/upper bounds, and close to self consistent method/Miller and Lannutti method/modified rule of mixture/fuzzy logic method single value predictions. Measured Poisson's ratio lies between rule of mixture/Ravichandran lower and upper bound/modified Ravichandran upper bounds. Experimental Charpy energy lies between Hopkin-chamis method/equivalent charpy energy/Ravichandran lower limit up to 20%, and close to the reciprocal rule of mixture for higher $Al_2O_3$ content. Rockwell hardness (RB) and Micro-hardness of $Al/Al_2O_3$ are closer to modified rule of mixture predictions.

The effect of interlamellar spacing on tensile behavior and fracture mode at high temperatures has been studied for unidirectionally solidified $Al-CuAl_2$ eutectic composite. The tensile properties at room temperature in $Al-CuAl_2$ eutectic composite improved as the interlamellar spacing decreased due to the constraint effects of closely spaced lamellae, while the opposite behavior was observed at high temperatures due to the annihilation of the constraint effects by phase boundary sliding. The $Al-CuAl_2$ eutectic composite exhibited brittle fracture mode below the temperature at which the reinforcing phase softened but ductile fracture mode above the temperature.

For melt-spun Fe-Nd-C alloy variation of phase development and magnetic properties with the variety of small Al addition was investigated. As the amount of Al addition increased the amorphization of Fe$_{14}$/Nd$_{2}$/C or $\alpha$-Fe was retarded and the residual Fe$_{14}$/Nd$_{2}$/C or $\alpha$-Fe did not eliminated after heat treatment resulting in poor coercivities of the ribbons. The grain size of Fe$_{14}$/Nd$_{2}$/C increased with the increase of Al addition and the abnormal grain was often found out in the ribbon heat treated for more then 10 min. The enhancement of coercivity was the highest with the addition of 0.5at%Al. As the amount of Al addition increase the coercivities dropped rapidly. The highest coercivity obtained so far is 13.9kOe which about 16% higher than that(11.2kOe) obtained from the Al-free specimen.

[ $MgAl_2O_4$ ] 막은 MgO 보호막 보다 단단하며 수분 흡착 오염 문제에 상당히 강한 특성을 가진다. 본 연구에서 AC-PDP 의 유전체보호막으로 사용되는 MgO 보호막의 특성을 개선하기 위해 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 이중층 보호막을 제작하여 특성을 조사하였다. 전자빔 증착기를 사용하여 Cu 기판에 MgO 와 $MgAl_2O_4$을 각각 $1000\AA$ 두께로 증착, $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 을 $200/800\AA$ 두께로 적층 증착 후, 이온빔에 의한 충전현상을 제거하기 위해 Al 을 $1000\AA$ 두께로 증착하였다. 집속 이온빔 (focused ion beam: FIB) 장치를 이용하여 10 kV 에서 14 kV 까지 이온빔 에너지에 따라 MgO는 $0.364{\sim}0.449$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율에서 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 을 적층함으로 $24{\sim}30 %$ 낮아진 $0.244{\sim}0.357$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율이 측정되었으며, $MgAl_2O_4$는 가장 낮은 $0.088{\sim}0.109$ 값의 스퍼터링 수율이 측정되었다. g-집속이온빔 (g-FIB) 장치를 이용하여 $Ne^+$ 이온 에너지를 50 V 에서 200 V 까지 변화시켜 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$ 와 MgO 는 $0.09{\sim}0.12$의 비슷한 이차 전자방출 계수를 측정하였다. AC- PDP 셀의 72 시간 열화실험 후 SEM 및 AFM으로 열화된 보호막의 표면을 관찰하여 기존의 단일 MgO 보호막과 $MgAl_2O_4/MgO$의 적층보호막의 열화특성을 살펴보았다.

$Eu^{2+}$-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ and $Eu^{2+}$, $Dy^{3+}$ co-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ phosphors have been synthesized by conventional solid state method. Photocurrent properties of $Eu^{2+}$ doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ and $Eu^{2+}$, $Dy^{3+}$ co-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ phosphors, in order to elucidate $Dy^{3+}$ co-doping effect, during and after ceasing ultraviolet-ray (UV) irradiation have been investigated. The photocurrent of $Eu^{2+}$, $Dy^{3+}$ co-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ phosphors during UV irradiation was 4-times lower than that of $Eu^{2+}$-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ during UV irradiation, and 7-times higher than that of $Eu^{2+}$-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ after ceasing UV irradiation. The photocurrent results indicated that holes of charge carriers captured in hole trapping center during the UV irradiation and liberated after-glow process, and made clear that $Dy^{3+}$ of co-dopant acted as a hole trap. The photocurrent of ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ showed a good proportional relationship to UV intensity in the range of $1{\sim}5mW/cm^2$, and $Eu^{2+}$-doped ${SrAl_2}{O_4}$ was confirmed to be a possible UV sensor.

The microstructural evolution and crystalline phases of this infiltration of Ti+Al liquids in TiC, SiC, TiC+C, and SiC+C preforms have been investigated. As the Ti and Al mixing ratio in Ti+Al infiltrated liquid changes, the newly formed reaction products, which were reacted from the Ti+Al liquid with preforms, consisted of three major phases as Ti3AlC, Al2Ti4C2 or Al4C3. The TiC grain shape was changed to spheroid, when Ti3AlC was formed. In case of Al2Ti4C2 formation, the platelet grain was formed from the original TiC grain. When Al4C3 was formed, nodular or intergranular fine-grained Al4C3 was formed around the TiC grain, while the original TiC grain shape was not changed.

The corrosion behavior of Al-Fe coatings was studied in the wet-seal atmosphere of molten carbonate fuel cells (MCFC). Fe-8Al, Fe-16Al, Fe-25Al, Fe-36Al, and Fe-70Al (in at.%) specimens were tested in Li/K carbonate at $650^{\circ}C$ by a single cell test and an immersion test. In general, the corrosion resistance of the Al-Fe coatings was enhanced due to the formation of a protective $LiAlO_2$ layer. However, when the Al-Fe coatings didn't have sufficient content of aluminum enough for maintaining the protective layer, the corrosion resistance of the Al-Fe coatings was severely degraded by the growth of non-protective scales like $LiAlO_2$. The test results revealed that the aluminum contents in the coatings should be higher than 25 at.% in order to form and maintain the protective $LiAlO_2$ layers.

Aluminum nitride powder prepared from the hydroxides, AlOOH and Al(OH)3 which were obtained by hydrolysis of Al-isopropoxide, was densified at 1750 and 180$0^{\circ}C$ for 60 min by hot-pressing under the pressure of 25kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Theoretical density could be obtained at 175$0^{\circ}C$. Their flexural strengths were 450MPa and 395MPa for the specimens obtained from Al(OH)3 and AlOOH, respectively. There was no remarkable change in flexural strength up to 100$0^{\circ}C$. Fracture toughness values were 3.50MN/m3/2 for Al(OH)3 and 3.11MN/m3/2 for AlOOH. It is assumed that these differences in mechanical properties are due to the abnormal grain growth for the AlN ceramics obtained from AlOOH.
