The sintering behavior of monolithic SiC is examined using the binary sintering additive of $Al_2O_3$-rare earth oxide ($RE_2O_3$, where RE = Sc, Nd, Dy, Ho, or Yb). Through hot pressing at 20 MPa and $1750^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in an Ar atmosphere for 52 nm fine ${\beta}$-SiC powder added with 5 wt% sintering additive, a SiC density of > 97% is achieved, which indicates the effectiveness of $Al_2O_3-RE_2O_3$ system as a sintering of additive for SiC. Based on this result, 7 wt% of $Al_2O_3-Sc_2O_3$ is tested as an additive system for the fabrication of a continuous SiC fiber-reinforced SiC-matrix composite ($SiC_f$/SiC). Electrophoretic deposition combined with the application of ultrasonic pulses is used to efficiently infiltrate the matrix phase into the voids of $Tyranno^{TM}$-SA3 fabric. After hot pressing, a composite density of > 97% is obtained, along with a maximum flexural strength of 443 MPa.

Effect of the microwave dielectric properties and the microstructure on a mole fraction(x=0.1~0.9) of (1-x)Mg$_2$SiO$_4$-xZnAl$_2$O$_4$ ceramics was investigated. When (1-x)Mg$_2$SiO$_4$-xZnAl$_2$O$_4$(x=0.1~0.9) ceramics were sintered at 130$0^{\circ}C$, 135$0^{\circ}C$ and 140$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hr, the microwave dielectric properties were obtained $\varepsilon$r=6.8~8.3, Q.f$_{0}$=36000~77600. On the other hand, the temperature coefficients of resonant frequency($\tau$$_{f}$) were obtained in the properties of -62ppm/$^{\circ}C$ to -49ppm/$^{\circ}C$. In order to adjust the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau$$_{f}$), CaTiO$_3$was added in (1-x)Mg$_2$SiO$_4$-xZnAl$_2$O$_4$ceramics. 0.7Mg$_2$SiO$_4$-0.2ZnAl$_2$O$_4$-0.1CaTiO$_3$ceramics sintered at 135$0^{\circ}C$ for 2hr showed the excellent microwave dielectric properties of $\varepsilon$r=7.7, Q.f$_{0}$=32000, and $\tau$$_{f}$=-7.9 ppm/$^{\circ}C$.EX>.>.EX>.

The effects of $B_2O_3$ addition on the low-temperature sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ ceramic system were investigated. Highly dense samples were obtained at the sintering temperatures below $900^{\circ}C$. The $Q{\times}f_o$ values were determined by the microstructures and sintering shrinkages which are affected by the amount of $B_2O_3$ and sintering temperature. Temperature coefficient of resonance frequency($T_f$) changes to a positive value with increasing the amount of $B_2O_3$ due to the increased amount of rutile phase which is one of the reaction products between $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ and $B_2O_3$. For $6.19 moi.{\%}B_2O_3$-added $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ system, it exhibits ${\epsilon}_r$ = 23.5, $Q{\times}f_o$ = 53,000 GHz, and $T_f$ = 0 ppm/$^{\circ}C$ when sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 5 h.

Microwave dielectric properties of (1-x)ZnW $O_4$-xTi $O_2$ ceramic systems were investigated with calcination temperatures and Ti $O_2$ contents. The ZnW $O_4$ ceramic could be suitably sintered at 1075$^{\circ}C$ and showed the dielectric constant of 13.6, quality factor(Q$\times$ $f_{O}$value) of 22,000 and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency($\tau$$_{f}$) of -65$\pm$2ppm/$^{\circ}C$. Increasing the amount of Ti $O_2$ in the range of 0.25 to 0.45 mol, the dielectric constant and $\tau$$_{f}$ increased due to the role of Ti $O_2$ but the quality factor decreased due to the increase of phase boundaries. The 0.7ZnW $O_4$-0.3Ti $O_2$ ceramic showed the dielectric constant of 19.8, qualify factor(Q$\times$ $f_{0}$) of 20,000 and $\tau$$_{f}$ of -3$\pm$1ppm/$^{\circ}C$.>.EX>.>.>.

Deep trench etching of silicon was investigated as a function of RF source power, DC bias voltage, $C_4F_8$ gas flow rate, and $O_2$ gas addition. On increasing the RF source power from 300 W to 700 W, the etch rate was increased from $3.52{\mu}m/min$ to $7.07{\mu}m/min$. The addition of $O_2$ gas improved the etch rate and the selectivity. The highest etch rate is achieved at the $O_2$ gas addition of 12 %, The selectivity to PR was 65.75 with $O_2$ gas addition of 24 %. At DC bias voltage of -40 V and $C_4F_8$ gas flow rate of 30 seem, We were able to achieve etch rate as high as $5.25{\mu}m/min$ with good etch profile.

The ab initio calculations for fluoromethyl fluoroperoxides have been carried out using MP2/6-311G(d,p) and B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) method. The structural optimizations were performed for several isomers and conformers of methyl fluoroperoxide, $CH_3OOF$ and the vibrational frequencies were calculated. The most stable conformer of $CH_3OOF$ is skew form and has fairly short O-O bond distance. The trans and cis conformers have 8-12 kcal/mol higher energies than skew form and the other isomers are very unstable. The structures of $CH_2FOOF$, $CHF_2OOF$ and $CF_3OOF$ are also optimized and vibrational frequencies were calculated. These molecules also have skew forms as the lowest energy conformers. The O-O bond distances are longer and C-O bond distances are shorter than $CH_3OOF$, but the structural parameters are almost independent of the number of fluorine atoms in methyl group.

Ferroxplana N $i_{2}$Y(B $a_{2}$N $i_{2}$F $e_{12}$ $O_{22}$ ) magnetic particles, which is one of the hexagonal ferrite were synthesized by a coprecipitation method. The coprecipitates were prepared by adding aqueous solution of BaC $I_{2}$ - 2 $H_{2}$O, NiC $I_{2}$ - 6 $H_{2}$O and FeC $I_{3}$ - 6 $H_{2}$O(of which the mole ratio is $Ba^{+2}$ : N $i^{+2}$ : F $e^{3+}$= 1 : 1 : 6) to a mixture of NaOH and N $a_{2}$C $O_{3}$. The shape of Ferroxplana N $i_{2}$Y magnetic particles obtained at 1, 100(.deg. C) was hexagonal plate-like, average particle size and aspect ratio were 2(.mu.m) and 7, respectively.y.

The effect of $B_2O_3$ addition on the sintering behavior and microwave dielectric properties of $(Zn_{0.8}Mg_{0.2})TiO_3$ ceramic system were investigated. Highly dense samples were obtained at the sintering temperatures below $900^{\circ}C$. Temperature coefficient of resonance frequency(${\tau}_f$) changes to a positive value with increasing the amount of $B_2O_3$ because of the increased amount of rutile phase. The $Q{\times}f_o$ values were determined by the microstructures and sintering shrinkages which are affected by the rutile or second phase. When 6.19 mol.% of $B_2O_3$ added and sintered at $900^{\circ}C$ for 5h, it exhibits ${\epsilon}_r$ =23.5, $Q{\times}f_o$= 67,500 GHz, and ${\tau}f=-1.42ppm/^{\circ}C$.

Combustion tests of a low thrust rocket engine was performed to get combustion characteristics, which used a high concentrated hydrogen peroxide and kerosene as the oxidizer and fuel. The engine consisted of multi injector(six coaxial swirl injectors), chamber, nozzle and catalyst ignition system. The test was carried out by changing O/F ratio from 3.8 to 11.0. The experimental results showed that combustion efficiency was highest at O/F ratio from 5 to 6 and pressure fluctuations of all the range were lower than 5%.

The microwave dielectric properties and low temperature sintering of $Ca[Ti_{1-x}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_x]O_3$ system were investigated at the sintering temperature $1,200\~1,350^{\circ}C$. The density and quality factors $(Q{\times}f)$ increased while dielectric constants slightly decreased with the decrease of Ti. The dielectric constant, quality factor, and temperature coefficient of resonance frequency $(\tau_f)$ were 64, 17,000 GHz, and $-9.1\;ppm/^{\circ}C$ respectively, when $CaTi_{1/2}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{1/2}O_3$ ceramics were sintered at $1,300^{\circ}C$ for 4 h. $2Li_2O-B_2O_3$ was added to $CaTi_{1/2}(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})_{1/2}O_3$ to decrease the sintering temperature for LTCC application. The microwave dielectric properties of the samples sintered at $925^{\circ}C$ for 2 h with the addition of $6\;wt\%\;2Li_2O-B_2O_3$ were $\varepsilon_r=48.7,\;Q{\times}f=8,460\;GHz$, and $\tau_f=+5.6ppm/^{\circ}C$. Compatibility test of the composition with silver electrode shows no reaction with silver electrode, implying the feasibility as a high-K LTCC material.
