The effect of trace metallic additives on microstructure, surface appearance and hardness of zinc electrodeposits was investigated by using sulfate bath and flow cell system. The preferred orientation of Zn deposit with Fe additive was (103)(104)+(002) mixed texture and that of Zn deposits with both Fe-Ni and Fe-Co additives was (10 1), while Zn deposits with Fe-Cr additives had (002) preferred orientation. The surface morphology of the zinc deposits was closely related to the preferred orientation of the deposits. The glossiness of Zn deposit with Fe-Ni additives was higher than that of pure Zn deposit, while the glossiness of Zn deposits with both Fe-Co and Fe-Cr additives was lower than that of pure Zn deposit. The hardness of Zn deposits with both Fe-Ni and Fe-Co additives was noticeably higher than that of Zn-Fe deposit, while that of Zn deposit with Fe-Cr additives was similar to that of Zn-Fe deposit.

The effect of trace metallic additives on microstructure, glossiness and hardness of Zinc electrodeposits was investigated by using sulfate bath and flow cell system. The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives was (10$\ell$)+(002) mixed texture, while that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-Cr additives was ( $10\ell$). The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(X:Ni,Co) additives changed from ($10\ell$)+(002) to ($10\ell$) with increasing Mg additive from 5 to 10 g/$\ell$. The surface morphology of the Zinc deposits was closely related to the preferred orientation of the deposits. The glossiness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives was similar to that of pure Zn deposit. The glossiness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(X:Ni,Cr) additives was lower than that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe additives, while that of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-Co additives was higher than that of Zn-Mg-Fe deposits. The hardness of Zn deposits with Mg-Fe-X(Ni,Co,Cr) increased with current density and amount of Mg additive. Hardness of Zn deposits was decreased and increased in comparison with Zn-Mg-Fe deposits for Mg-Fe-Co and Mg-Fe-Cr additives, respectively.

The microstructure of intermixed $Zn_{1-x}Fe_xSe$ layers in the (ZnSe/FeSe) superstrates grown on (00l) GaAs substrates has been investigated by high -resolution transmission electron microscopy and computer simulations of lattice images. Computer image simulations have been performed by the multislice method under various sample thicknesses and defocusing conditions. The simulated lattice images were compared with the experimental lattice images. Also, CuAu-I type ordering was often observed in the intermixed $Zn_{1-x}Fe_xSe$ alloys. This CuAu-I type ordered structure consists of alternating ZnSe and FeSe monolayers along the <100> and <110> directions.

Ba-Zn ferrite powders for electromagnetic insulator were synthesized by self-propagating high-temperature synthesis(SHS) with a reaction of $xBaO_2+(1-x)ZnO+0.5Fe_2O_3+Fe{\rightarrow}Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. In this study, phase indentification of SHS products was carried out by using x-ray diffractometry and quasi-nano sized Ba-Zn powders were prepared by a pulverizing process. SHS mechanism was studied by thermodynamical analysis about oxidation reaction among $BaO_2,\;ZnO,\;Fe_2O_3$, and Fe. As oxygen pressure increases from 0.25 MPa to 1.0 MPa, the SHS reactions occur well and make clearly the SHS products. X-ray analysis shows that final SHS products formed with the ratio of $BaO_2/ZnO$ of 0.25, 1.0 and 4.0, are mainly $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. Based on thermodynamical evaluation, the heat of formation increases in the order of $ZnFe_2O_4,\;BaFe_2O_4$, and $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$. This supports that $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ phase is predominately formed during SHS reaction. The SHS reactions to form $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ depends on oxygen partial pressure, and the heat of formation during the SHS reaction. The SHS reactions tends to occur well with increasing the oxygen partial pressure and BaO2/ZnO ratio in the reactants This means that the SHS reaction for the formation of Ba-Zn ferrite includes the reduction of BaO2/ZnO and the oxidation of Fe. $Ba_xZn_{1-x}Fe_2O_4$ powders after pulverizing is agglomeratedwith a size of about $50{\mu}m$, in which quasi-nano sized particles with about 300nm are present.

MBS에 의해(001)GaAs기판 위에 성장된 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se(x=1.0, 7.4, 9.5 %)반도체 박막과 (ZnSe/FeSe)반도체 초격자 박막의 미세구조를 투과전자현미경을 이용하여 연구하였다. Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막 시편의 경우, 박막과 기판 사이의 격자 불일치때문에 a/2<110>형태의 버거즈 벡터를 가지는 부정합 전위를 관찰하였다. 모든 Zn$_{1-x}$Co$_{x}$Se 박막과 기판의 계면은 뚜렷이 구별되었고, 계면에서 산화물이나 이물질이 존재하지 않았다. 또한, (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 성장시키기 전에 GaAs기판 위에 ZnSe바닥층을 넣음으로써 고품질의 (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자를 얻었다. (ZnSe/FeSe)초격자에 있는 FeSe는 섬아연광 결정구조로 존재하였다.

The effect of trace metallic additives of Al-Fe-X on microstructure, glossiness and hardness of Zn electrodeposits was investigated by using sulfate bath. The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Al-Fe additives was (10 l)(l:3,4,2), while that of Zn deposits with Al-Fe-X(Ni,Co) additives was either (002) or (002)＋(103)ㆍ(104) mixed orientation. The preferred orientation of Zn deposits with Al-Fe-Cr additives changed from (002)+(10 l) to (10 l) orientation with increasing amount of Al additive. The surface morphology of the Zn deposits was closely related to the preferred orientation of the deposits. The glossiness of Zn deposits with Al-Fe additives increased in comparison with that of pure Zn deposit. That of the Zn deposits with Al-Fe-X additives was related to the morphology of the deposits and changed according to type of additives. The hardness of Zn deposits with Al-Fe-X(Ni,Co,Cr) additives was noticeably higher than that of Zn deposits with Al-Fe additives.

The effects of alloying elements on the solidification characteristics, microstructure, thermal conductivity, and tensile strength of Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys were investigated for the development of high strength and high thermal conductivity aluminium alloy for die casting. The amounts of Zn and Mg in Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys had little effect on the liquidus/solidus temperature, the latent heat for solidification, the energy release for solidification and the fluidity of Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys. Thermo-physical modelling of Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys by the JMatPro program showed $MgZn_2$, AlCuMgZn and $Al_3Fe$ phases in the microstructure of the alloys. Increased amounts of Mg in Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys resulted in phase transformation, such as $MgZn_2{\Rightarrow}MgZn_2+AlCuMgZn{\Rightarrow}AlCuMgZn$ in the microstructure of the alloys. Increased amounts of Zn and Mg in Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys resulted in a gradual reduction of the thermal conductivity of the alloys. Increased amounts of Zn and Mg in Al-Zn-Mg-Fe alloys had little effect on the tensile strength of the alloys.

Formation reaction of Mn-Zn ferrite depending on various synthetic conditions of wet process was investigated using FeCl2.nH2O(n≒4), MnCl2.4H2O, ZnCl2 as starting materials. A stable intermediate precipitate was formed by the addition of H2O2. And the precipitate was hard to transform to spinel phase of Mn-Zn Fe2O4. Single phase of Mn-Zn Fe2O4 spinel was obtained above 8$0^{\circ}C$ reaction temperature. The powder had spherical particle shape and 0.02~0.05${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ particle size. Fe(OH)2 solid solution, -FeO(OH) solid solution, -FeOOH, Mn-Zn Fe2O4 spinel were formed with air flow rate 180$\ell$/hr. However, single phase of Mn-Zn Fe2O4 spinel with cubic particle shape and 0.1~0.2${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ particle size was formed with synthetic conditions of 8$0^{\circ}C$ and 90 munutes. The particle shape of the -FeOOH was needle-like.
