The magnetic interaction effect on the magnetic activation volume and area of electrodeposited CoPt magnetic films was investigated. The dipolar interaction was predominant interaction mechanism for all samples. And the interaction strength was increased with decreasing current density and increased with increasing sample thickness. Although the activation volumes of the samples fabricated at low current density were larger than those of the high current density samples, the sample thickness seemed to have little influence on the variation of activation volume. But it was found that the activation area was apparently affected by the magnetic interaction strength as well as the current density.

Nickel electrodeposition from sulfamate bath has several benefits such as low internal stress, high current density and good ductility. In nickel deposited layers, sulfur induces high temperature embrittlement, as Ni-S compound has a low melting temperature. To overcome high temperature embrittlement problem, adding manganese is one of the good methods. Manganese makes Mn-S compound having a high melting temperature above $1500^{\circ}C$. In this work, the mechanical properties of Ni-Mn deposited layers were investigated by using various process variables such as concentration of Mn$(NH_2SO_3)_2$, current density, and bath temperature. As the Mn content of electrodeposited layers was increased, internal stress and hardness were increased. By increasing current density, internal stress increased, but hardness decreased. With increasing the bath temperature from 55 to $70^{\circ}C$, internal stress of Ni deposit layers decreased, but hardness didn't change by bath temperature. It was likely that eutectoid manganese led to lattice deformation, and the lattice deformation increased hardness and internal stress in Ni-Mn layers. Increasing current density and decreasing bath temperature would increase a mount of $H_2$ absorption, which was a cause for the rise of internal stress.

The low frequency noise in Silicon Nanowire Field Effect Transistors is analyzed by characterizing the gate electrode dependence on various geometrical parameters. It shows that gate electrodes have a strong impact in the flicker noise of Silicon Nanowire Field effect transistors. Optimization of gate electrode was done by comparing different performance metrics such a DIBL, SS, $I_{on}/I_{off}$ and fringing capacitance using TCAD simulations. Molybdenum based gate electrode showed significant improvement in terms of high drive current, Low DIBL and high $I_{on}/I_{off}$. The noise power sepctral density is reduced by characterizing the device at higher frequencies. Silicon Nanowire with Si3N4 spacer decreases the drain current spectral density which interms reduces the fringing fields there by decreasing the flicker noise.

In this review paper, we report the characteristics of the critical current density in FeAs based superconductors which is newly discovered by Hosono group of Tokyo Institute of Technology on 2008. Since the many specimens in present stage are not single crystals, there are two kinds of critical current density observed in the specimens which are so-called local and global critical current densities. Therefore, it is necessary to evaluate both kinds of critical current densities. The history effect in which the global critical current density shows different values in increasing and decreasing magnetic field is also observed when the specimens have the local and the global critical current densities. The wire which critical current is 180 A is successfully developed with using the knowledge of abovementioned characteristics of two kinds of critical current densities and the history effect.

The microstructure of zine electrodeposits was investigated by using zinc sulfate solution in still bath. The cathode current efficiency decreased with increasing current density, and decreasing temperature. The preferred orientation of the zinc electrodeposits changed from (10.3) texture to(10.${\ell}$)-(00.1)(${\ell}$=1, 2, 3) texture through (10.2)-(10.3) preferred orientation with increasing cathode over potential. The surface morphology of zinc electrodeposits changed from the dendritic growth with granular crystallites to the blocks of hexagonal crystallites packed together with increasing current density. The microstructure of cross section of the above deposits are the rough granular structure and columnar structure respectively.

MIAB welding method uses a rotating arc as its heat source and is known to be efficient in pipe butt welding. The arc is rotated around the weld line by the electro-magnetic force resulting from the interaction of arc current and magnetic field. This paper is concerned with the experiment of initial stage for process control, monitoring for weld quality, and the design of coil system which is efficient of flux generation and concentration. A coil system for the generation of magnetic flux was designed and constructed. Magnetic flux density and arc rotating behavior are important factors in MIAB welding, so the relations between these factors and process parameters were investigated. Various experiments were performed for the steel pipes(48.1mm O.D and 2.0mm thickness). The magnetic flux density is increased by increasing exciting current and decreasing gap size. The maximum of arc rotating frequency is affected by exciting current and gap size. However, the variations of arc rotating frequency during welding and then the melting process are mainly influenced by welding current. Thus, it is considered that the results of this study can be used as important data on the monitoring for weld quality and the design of efficient coil system.

The change of the hardness and yield strength depending upon the electrolysis conditions was investigated for Watts and bright nickel electrodeposits. The hardness of Watts nickel electrodeposits decreased with increasing current density in the range of 1-15A/Am2, while it increased with increasing bath temperature. The hardness of bright nickel deposits increased noticebly in comparison with that of Watts nickel electro-deposits. The hardness and the yield strength of the bright nickel electrodeposits increased considerably with decreasing current density and the highest value was obtained at the lowest current density (1A/dm2), while they decreased noticebly at the bath temperature of 80$^{\circ}C$ in comparison with that of 40-60$^{\circ}C$. The change of the hardness and the yield strength of bright nickel electrodeposits depending upon the electrolysis conditions could be mainly attributed to the variation of organic additives codeposited in the electrodeposits. The recrystallizatioin temperature(50% softening temperature) of the Wattss and the bright nickel electro-deposits was 520-280$^{\circ}C$ and 350-410$^{\circ}C$ respectively and then the recystallization temperature of bright nickel deposits was lower than that of the Watts nickel electrodeposits.

Inhibitive effects of chromate, phosphate, sulfate, and borate on chloride pitting corrosion of Al have been investigated using cyclic voltammetry. During the anodic oxide growth, the critical concentration of chloride for pit initiation decreased in the order: chromate > phosphate > sulfate > borate, and the maximum pitting current density increases in the reverse order: chromate < phosphate < sulfate < borate. The decreasing pitting current density was observed in the successive polarization cycles, which was attributed to the aging of Al oxides and field relaxation at oxide/solution interface.
