A zinc oxide (ZnO) single crystal was used as a substrate in the hydride vapor-phase epitaxy (HVPE) growth of GaN and the structural and optical properties of GaN layer were characterized by x- ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, secondary ion mass spectrometry, and photoluminescence (PL) analysis. Despite a good lattice match and an identical structure, ZnO is not an appropriate substrate for application of HVPE growth of GaN. Thick film could not be grown. The substrate reacted with process gases and Ga, being unstable at high temperatures. The crystallinity of ZnO substrate deteriorated seriously with growth time, and a thin alloy layer formed at the growth interface due to the reaction between ZnO and GaN. The PL from a GaN layer demonstrated the impurity contamination during growth possibly due to the out-diffusion from the substrate.

Cellulose was electrospun over water collector and the cellulose solution was prepared using N-methyl-morpholine N-oxide/water(nNMMO/$H_2O$). The morphology of electrospun cellulose was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). SEM images showed that the fiber formation depended on processing parameters such as solution concentration, applied electric field strength, solution feeding rate and temperature of water in coagulation bath. High concentration, low temperature of water bath, and low feeding rate were more favorable to obtain fiber morphology. All the variables affected on the fluidity of the cellulose solution and diffusion of NMMO. Low fluidity and fast diffuision of NMMO was critical for obtaining fiber morphology.

The microstructure of as-quenched $Al_{70}Cu_{18}Mg_{12}$ alloy has been investigated in detail using transmission electron microscopy. Al nano-crystals about 5 nm with a high density are distributed in the amorphous matrix, indicating amorphous matrix nano-composite can be synthesized in Al-Cu-Mg alloy. The high density of Al nano-crystals indicates very high nucleation rate and sluggish growth rate during crystallization possibly due to limited diffusion rate of solute atoms of Cu and Mg during solute partitioning. The result of hardness measurement shows that the mechanical properties can be improved by designing a nano-composite structure where nanometer scale crystals are embedded in the amorphous matrix.

The basic modeling is analyzed on the optoelectronic properties of CSP-DH laser structure using self-consistent calculation of optical field and the electron-hole distribution in the active region. Laser properties is modelled include gain profile, threshold, near field and far field pattern. This new characterization is allowed for consideration such as carrier spatial hole burning due to strong optical fields which stimulate recombination.

나노 크기의 공간에서의 물질의 이동은 표면의 환경에 의해 영향을 받을 수 있다. 소수성그래핀과 친수성 실리콘 기판 사이의 계면에서의 물의 확산은 호기심을 자극할 뿐만 아니라 그래핀 소자의 특성을 좌우하는 전하도핑(charge doping) 현상을 이해하는데 중요한 모델이 된다. 본 연구에서는 라만 분광법과 원자 힘 현미경을 사용하여 그래핀/SiO2 계면 사이의 물의 확산 현상과 그에 따른 정공 밀도 변화를 탐구하였다. 열처리 된 그래핀은 기판과의 상호 작용에 의해 높은 밀도의 정공(electron hole)으로 도핑 되어 있으며, 이를 물에 담지 하였다. 본 실험에서는 이차원 라만 분광법을 통해 물 속에 담겨진 그래핀의 정공 밀도의 공간적인 분포를 확산 시간에 따라 조사하였다. 물의 확산은 시료에 따라 수 시간에서 수 일의 시간대에 걸쳐 그래핀 가장자리에서 중앙으로 이루어진다는 사실을 확인하였다. 또한 물의 계면 확산으로 인하여 전하 밀도가 감소한다는 사실은 열처리 된 그래핀의 정공 도핑을 유발하는 산소가 계면에 존재한다는 것을 증명한다.

free volume in polymers is defined as the difference of the specific volume and the volume which is not available for the particular molecular motion which is responsible or the process that is considered . Relations between free volume and viscosity free volume and diffusion coefficient are pre-sented both in the case of simple low molecular weight liquids and in the case of polymers. Molecular models and free volume models are reminded starting from the equilibrium state equation of Simha and Somcynski. The non equilibrium situations of specific volume of glass polymers below Tg are shown introducing different relaxation volume equations which involve different material's parameters and con-cept of the fictitious temperature. The diffusivity equations of Vrentas and Duda are introduced both for the glassy and rubbery states. The possibility of introducing time relaxation functions is also suggested. The importance of finding experimental evidences of the free volume is stressed. highlights of the free volume measurement methods are given in particular as to dilatometry photocromy fluorescence electron spin resonance small angle X-ray scattering positron annihilation spectroscopy.

$Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ is prepared through a solid-state reaction between $Li_2CO_3$ and anatase $TiO_2$ for applications in lithium-ion batteries. The rate capability is measured and the electrode polarization is analyzed through the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT). The rate characteristics and electrode polarization are highly sensitive to the amount of carbon loading. Polarization of the $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ electrode continuously increases as the reaction proceeds in both the charge and discharge processes. This relation indicates that both electron conduction and lithium diffusion are significant factors in the polarization of the electrode. The transition metal (Cu, Ni, Fe) ion added during the synthesis of $Li_4Ti_5O_{12}$ for improving the electrical conductivity also greatly enhances the rate capability.

To observe the optical characteristic of oxide semiconductor depending on the degree of bonding structures, SiOC, ZnO and IGZO were prepared by the RF magnetron sputter system and chemical vapor deposition. Generally, crystal ZnO, amorphous SiOC and IGZO changed the optical characteristics in according to the electro-chemical behavior due to the oxygen vacancy at an interface between different groups. Transmittance of SiOC and IGZO with amorphous structures was higher than that of ZnO with crystal structure, because of lowering the carrier concentration due to the recombination of electron and holes carriers as oxygen vacancies. Besides, the energy gap of amorphous SiOC and IGZO was higher than the energy gap of crystal ZnO. The diffusion mobility of holes is higher than the drift mobility of electrons.

To predict accurately the breakdown voltage in air at atmospheric pressure, a fully coupled finite element analysis combining the hydrodynamic diffusion-drift equations with Poisson's equation is proposed in the current paper. As three kinds of charged transport particles are nonlinearly coupled with spatial electric fields, the equations should be solved by an iterative numerical scheme, in which secondary effects, such as photoemission and photoionization, are considered. The proposed method has been successfully applied to evaluate the breakdown voltage in circular parallel-plane electrodes. Its validity has been proved through the comparison of the predicted and experimental results. The effects of numerical conditions of the initial charge, photoemission, and background ionization on the discharge phenomena are quantitatively assessed through Taguchi's design of experiment method.

A hybrid model has been developed which adopts a fluid model for electrons and a particle-in-cell (PIC) model for ions. Using the hybrid simulation, the discharge characteristics are investigated with the diagnostics for the electric field and the wall charge profile, density distributions of charged and excited particles, distributions of ultraviolet lights on phosphor, and the visible lights emitted from the PDP cell. Also, energy and angle distributions of the ions at the MgO protective layer are obtained for the analysis of material effect. The comparison of hybrid simulation results with experimental results as well as that with the conventional fluid simulation shows that the new model is more adequate for the simulation of PDP cells.
