Wagnerite ($Mg_2PO_4F)$ was successfully synthesized in a sealed platinum tube and the complete substitutions of $Co^{++}, Ni^{++}, Cu^{++} \;and\;Zn^{++}$for Mg were made in the wagnerite structure. Wagnerite did not decompose until it reached its melting temperature. It was observed that wagnerite underwent only one inversion at $1255^{\circ}C$, prior to melting at $1340^{\circ}C$. The lattice parameters of wagnerites were linearly increased by the substitutions of $Co^{++}$ and $Zn^{++}$ and decreased by the substitutions of $Ni^{++}$ and $Cu^{++}$. The substitutions of wagnerite with $Co^{++}, Ni^{++}$ and $Cu^{++}$ resulted in purple, orange and green colors, respectively, The colors of pigments became more intense and suitable for coloring of glazes and plastics as the amount of metal ions increased.

In the presence of metal ions(Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), Sr(Ⅱ), Cu(Ⅱ), Fe(Ⅲ), U(Ⅵ)), the sedimentation of humic acid was increased at constant pH with increasing metal concentration and the strength was increased in the following order: Sr < Ni < Co < Cu < Fe < U. At constant metal concentration, Cu(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), and Co(Ⅱ) ions caused an increase in sedimentation of humic acid as the solution pH increased, whereas Fe(Ⅲ) and U(Ⅵ) ions caused a decrease. Sr(Ⅱ) ions did not affect the sedimentation even with the variation of pH. The analysis of FT-IR spectra for the sediments prepared from the reaction between humic acid and metal ions showed that metal ions were bound to humic acid to form complexes, suggesting that the metal complexation plays an important role in the sedimentation of humic acid.

In this study, Metallugical properties between Sn-3.5Ag, Sn-37Pb eutectic solders and Au/Ni/cu substrate according to time span above the melting point were investigated. A conventional reflow soldering machine wert used for this study and time span above the melting point was determined by changing peak soldering temperature and conveyor speed. As results, scallop type intermetallic compounds of $Ni_3Sn_4$ were formed at joint interface and no Cu-Sn compounds were found at all; Ni layer performed as a barrier for Cu diffusion. As the peak soldering temperature increased, thickness of the intermetallic compound layer increased; maximum thickness of the scallop-layer was 2.2$\mu\textrm{m}$. The shape of scallops were transformed from hemi-sphere type to elliptical shape with smaller size. Micro-hardness of the solder joint decreased as the eutectic structure of Sn-3.5Ag and Sn-37Pb increased.

In this study, stabilization treatment of heavy metals such as Ni, Cu, Pb, and Zn in contaminated marine sediment was achieved using bentonite. Stabilization experiment was accomplished by wet-curing with bentonite for 150 days. From the sequential extraction results of heavy metals, it was observed that the easily extractable fraction (exchangeable, carbonate, and oxides forms) of Ni, Cu, Pb, and Zn in a treated sediment decreased to 8.5%, 5.6%, 19.2%, and 28.2%, respectively, compared with untreated sediment. Moreover, the TCLP(Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure) results evaluating efficiency of extraction reduction of heavy metals showed that extraction of heavy metals reduced drastically to 95.7%, 96.8%, 99.2%, 85.9% for Ni, Cu, Pb, and Zn by stabilization when compared to untreated sediment. From these results, we can confirm that bentonite as a capping material exhibits good stabilization of heavy metals in contaminated marine sediment.

The research was conducted in order to improve the hydrogen generation efficiency of the electrical plasma technology from tap water by using $TiO_2$ photocatalyst, mixed Cu - $TiO_2$ powder, and mixed Ni - $TiO_2$ powder as the catalysts. Experiments were performed with the pulsed power and nitrogen carrier gas. The result has shown that the hydrogen concentration with the presence of $TiO_2$ powder was created higher than that of without using photocatalyst. The hydrogen concentration with using $TiO_2$ was 3012ppm corresponding to the applied voltage of 16kV, while it without using the $TiO_2$ was 1464ppm at the same condition . The effect of $TiO_2$ powder was strongly detected at the applied voltages of 15kV and 16kV. This phenomena might be resulted from the co-effect of the pulsed power discharge and the activated state of $TiO_2$ photocatalyst. The co-effect of the mixed catalysts such as Cu-$TiO_2$ and Ni-$TiO_2$ (the mixed photocatalyst $TiO_2$ and transition metals) were also investigated. The experimental results showed that, Cu and Ni powder dopants were greatly enhancing the activity of the $TiO_2$ photocatalyst. Under these experimental conditions the extremely high hydrogen concentrations at the optimal point were produced as 4089ppm and 6630ppm, respectively.

For the development of superconducting fault current limiters (SFCLs), fault current limiting elements were fabricated out of Bi-2212 bulk tubes and tested. The SFCL elements consisted of tube shaped Bi-2212 bulks and metal shunts for the stabilizers. Firstly, the Bi-2212 bulk tubes were processed based on a design of monofilar coils in order to acquire large resistance and high voltage rating. 300 mm-long Bi-2212 tubes were designed to have the current path of 410 cm in length with 24 turns and 41 mm in diameter. The processed monofilar coil, as designed, had 300 A $I_c$ at 77 K. The fabricated superconducting monofilar coils were affixed to Cu-Ni alloy as that of stabilizers. The Cu-Ni alloys were processed to have the same shape of the superconducting monofilar coils. The Cu-Ni coil had resistivity of 32 ${\mu}{\Omega}$-cm at 77 K and 37 ${\mu}{\Omega}$-cm at 300 K. The metal shunts were attached to the outside of the Bi-2212 monofilar coil by a soldering technique. After the terminals made of copper were attached to both ends of the superconductor-metal shunt composite, the gap between the turns and the surface of the elements was filled with an epoxy and a dense mesh made of FRP in order to enhance the mechanical strength. The completed SFCL elements went through fault tests, and we confirmed that the voltage rating of 143 $V_{rms}$ (E =0.35 $V_{rms}$/cm) could be accomplished.

In this study, the electrical contact resistance characteristics between graphene and metals, which is one of important factors for the performance of graphene-based devices, were compared. High-quality graphene was synthesized by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, and Al, Cu, Ni, and Ti as electrode materials were deposited on the graphene surface with equal thickness of 50 nm. The contact resistances of graphene transferred to SiO₂/Si substrates and metals were measured by the transfer length method (TLM), and the average contact resistances of Al, Cu, Ni, and Ti were found to be 345 Ω, 553 Ω, 110 Ω, and 174 Ω, respectively. It was found that Ni and Ti, which form chemical bonds with graphene, have relatively lower contact resistances compared to Al and Cu, which have physical adsorption properties. The results of this study on the electrical properties between graphene and metals are expected to contribute to the realization of high-performance graphene-based devices including electronics, optoelectronic devices, and sensors by forming low contact resistance with electrodes.
