The glass formation behavior was investigated in the melt spun Zr-Ti-Cu-Ni-X (X=B, P and Si) ribbons. The magnitude of supercooled liquid region of Zr-Ti-Cu-Ni alloy increased with an addition of alloying element. The glass transition temperature and the crystallization temperature increased and the magnitude of supercooled liquid region decreased with increasing the content of alloying elements. The largest supercooled liquid region was observed in the Si containing alloy. This is believed to be due to the dense atom packing with the optimum atomic size ratio of constituent elements.

본 연구에서는 PERC(passivated emitter and rear cell) 구조를 갖는 고효율 단결정 실리콘 태양전지에 도금법을 적용하여 Ni/Cu 전극을 형성하였다. 고효율 태양전지는 제작 비용이 높고 공정이 복잡하기 때문에 실용화에 적용이 어려운 단점이 있다. 따라서 태양전지의 효율은 그대로 유지하고, 공정을 간단하게 줄이면서 저가격화 할 수 있는 방법에 대한 연구가 필요하다. 기존의 고효율 실리콘 태양전지에 가장 일반적으로 적용되고 있는 Ti/Pd/Ag 전극의 경우 고가의 증착 장비를 이용할 뿐만 아니라 재료 자체도 매우 고가의 물질이 사용되고 있다. 도금법으로 Ni/cu 전극을 형성하여 태양전지를 제작한 결과 공정을 간소화하고 비용을 절감 하면서, 20% 이상의 고효율 태양전지를 얻을 수 있었다.

The recirculating electrochemical flow reactor developed at UCLA has been employed to fabricate nanostructured GMR multilayers. For comparison, Ni/Cu multilayers have been electrodeposited from a single bath, from dual baths and from the recirculating electrochemical flow reactor. For a magnetic field of 1.5 kOe, higher GMR (Max. -5%) Ni/Cu multilayers with low electrical resistivity (< $10\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) were achieved by the electrochemical flow reactor system than by the dual bath (Max. GMR = -4.2% and < $20\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) or the single bath (Max. GMR = -2.1% and < $90\;{\mu}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$) techniques. Higher GMR effects have been obtained by producing smoother, contiguous layers at lower current densities and by the elimination of oxide film formation by conducting deposition under an inert gas environment. Our preliminary GMR measurements of Ni/Cu multilayers from the electrochemical flow reactor obtained at low magnetic field of 0.15 T, which may approach or exceed the highest reported results (-7% GMR) at magnetic fields > 5 kOe.

The effect of gadolinium and boron on the texture development and magnetic properties of the texture controlled 23Cr-10NiCu duplex stainless steels were studied to develop a high performance neutron and electromagnetic shielding material. The 23Cr-10NiCu base alloy is composed of 60% of austenite and 40% of ferrite, whereas, the 23Cr-10NiCu-0.5Gd-0.8B modified alloy is composed of 66% of austenite, 27% of ferrite and 7% of CrFeB intermetallic compounds. The gadolinium and boron addition to the 23Cr-10NiCu base alloy increased mechanical properties. Microstructure observation showed that the small addition of 0.5 wt% gadolinium and 0.8 wt% boron to the alloy retarded to form texture at the same hot rolling conditions, and improved the maximum magnetism, residual magnetism and coercive force about 3%, 122% and 120%, respectively.

Sintered Cu-W has been used for the electrode of GIS for interrupting the abnormal current. In this study the effect of Ni addition in Cu-W electrode was investigated. Cu-W electrodes used contains 0.1~0.2wt% Ni and were conducted the experiments which was attacked by DC arc test (70V-70A) for 300 times periodically. As the contents of Ni in Cu-W electrode increase, the hardness and electrical conductivity were decreased. The weight change ($\Delta$mg) of electrode after DC arc test increased with increasing Ni contents and test times. The hardness and electrical conductivity of electrode after DC arc test were decreased compared with non-arc affected electrode, which was owing to the defects near surface of electrode and degradation by arc heat. It was considered that Cu in the Cu-W electrode was scattered to all directions by arc heat, therefore, the electrodes were damaged and deformed in the surface and cross-section of electrode. It is difficult to estimate directly the characteristics of Cu-W electrode for GIS related with high voltage and current from the results of DC arc test conducted in this study. However, the results of the effect of Ni addition in Cu-W electrode could be applied for the research of electrode for GIS.

It is significant technique to increase competitiveness that solar cells have a high energy conversion efficiency and cost effectiveness. When making high efficiency crystalline Si solar cells, evaporated Ti/Pd/Ag contact system is widely used in order to reduce the electrical resistance of the contact fingers. However, the evaporation process is no applicable to mass production because high vacuum is needed. Furthermore, those metals are too expensive to be applied for terrestrial applications. Ni/Cu/Ag contact system of silicon solar cells offers a relatively inexpensive method of making electrical contact. Ni silicide formation is one of the indispensable techniques for Ni/Cu/Ag contact sytem. Ni was electroless plated on the front grid pattern, After Ni electroless plating, the cells were annealed by RTP(Rapid Thermal Process). Ni silicide(NiSi) has certain advantages over Ti silicide($TiSi_2$), lower temperature anneal, one step anneal, low resistivity, low silicon consumption, low film stress, absence of reaction between the annealing ambient. Ni/Cu/Ag metallization scheme is an important process in the direction of cost reduction for solar cells of high efficiency. In this article we shall report an investigation of rapid thermal silicidation of nickel on silngle crystalline silicon wafers in the annealing range of $350-390^{\circ}C$. The samples annealed at temperatures from 350 to $390^{\circ}C$ have been analyzed by SEM(Scanning Electron Microscopy).

We have studied the magnetoresistance phenomena on spin valve thin films of antiferromagnetic NiO/CoO. Interlayer coupling oscillates between the antiferrocoupling and ferrocoupling with the variation of Cu thickness. The exchange coupling strength between NiO (antiferromagnetic) and NiFe(ferromagnetic) as a function of NiO texture and interface roughness is investigated by CoO insertion. CoO has significantly higher anisotropy in the (111) plane and interface roughness. It seems that the MR-ratio is increased by CoO inserted films. From the AFM and XRD data, the increase of MR-ratio and exchange field is influenced by the roughness of CoO.

Amorphous Ti-(50-x)Ni-xCu (at%) (x = 20, 25, 27, 30) alloy ribbons were prepared by melt spinning. Subsequently, the crystallization behavior of the alloy ribbons was investigated by X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry. ${\Delta}T$ (the temperature gap between $T_g$ and $T_x$) increased from 33 K to 47 K and the wavenumber ($Q_p$) decreased from 29.44 $nm^{-1}$ to 29.29 $nm^{-1}$ with increasing Cu content from 20 at% to 30 at%. The activation energy for crystallization decreased from 188.5 kJ/mol to 170.6 kJ/mol with increasing Cu content from 20 at% to 25 at%; afterwards, the activation energy remained near constant. Crystallization occurred in two-stage: amorphous-B2-$TiCu_2$ in Ti-Ni-Cu alloys with Cu content less than 25 at%, while it occurred in three-stage; amorphous-B2-TiCu-$TiCu_2$ in Ti-Ni-Cu alloys with Cu content more than 27 at%.

Thermodynamic modeling of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite system has been adopted as a rational approach to establish routes to better synthesis conditions for pure phase $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ complex ferrite. Quantitative analysis of the different reaction equilibria involved in the precipitation of $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ from aqueous solutions has been used to determine the optimum synthesis conditions. The spinel ferrites, such as magnetite and substitutes for magnetite, with the general formula $MFe_2O_4$, where M= $Fe^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, and $Ni^{2+}$ are prepared by coprecipitation of $Fe^{3+}$ and $M^{2+}$ ions with a stoichiometry of $M^{2+}/Fe^{3+}$= 0.5. The average particle size of the as synthesized $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$, measured by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), is 14.2 nm, with a standard deviation of 3.5 nm the size when calculated using X-ray diffraction (XRD) is 16 nm. When $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite is annealed at elevated temperature, larger grains are formed by the necking and mass transport between the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ ferrite nanoparticles. Thus, the grain sizes of the $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ gradually increase as heat treatment temperature increases. Based on the results of Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC) analysis, it is found that the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the as synthesized ferrite nanoparticles finally decompose to $Ni_{0.5}Zn_{0.4}Cu_{0.1}Fe_2O_4$ crystal with heat treatment. The results of XRD and TEM confirmed the nanoscale dimensions and spinel structure of the samples.

공단인근의 여러 중금속이 복합적으로 오염된 토양에서 중금속의 존재형태와 미나리 중 함량과의 관계를 평가하기 위하여 미나리 재배토양, 농수로 퇴적 저니토 및 대조토양과 동일지점에서의 미나리를 채취하여 분석 검토하였다. 토양의 중금속 총함량 중 Cd, Cu 및 Ni의 평균농도가 Kloke (1979)가 제안한 중금속의 허용한계치를 초과하였다. 중금속별 토양 내 주된 존재형태는 Cd이 치환태였고, 다른 중금속 (Cu, Zn, Ni 및 Pb)은 Fe-Mn 산화물 및 잔류 형태로 나타났다. 재배토양과 농수로 저니토의 형태별 함량에 의하여 환산된 잠재적인 중금속 이동계수는 Cd>Zn>Ni>Cu>Pb 순이였고, 특히 Cd의 경우 대조토양에 비하여 매우 높은 것으로 알수 있었다. 토양의 Cd 전함량과 토양 내 이동성이 높은 치환성 및 Fe-Mn 산화물 분포비율과는 정의 상관, 이동성이 낮은 잔류태와는 부의 상관을 보였다. 미나리 부위별 중금속은 대부분이 뿌리에 축적되었으며, 지상부로의 이행성은 Cd과 Zn가 줄기에서 높았고, Cu와 Ni 함량은 오히려 잎에서 높았다. 토양 중금속 중 Cd, Cu 및 Ni의형태별 함량과 미나리 중 함량과 관련성이 높았고, 특히 치환성 Cd과 Ni 함량은 미나리 중 함량과 고도의 정의상관을 보였다.
