Due to its high production cost and relatively high energy consumption during the Siemens process, poly-silicon makers have been continuously and eagerly sought another silicon route for decades. One candidate that consumes less energy and has a simpler acidic and metallurgical purification procedure is upgraded metallurgical-grade (UMG) silicon. Owing to its low purity, UMG silicon often requires special steps to minimize the impurity effects and to remove or segregate the metal atoms in the bulk and to remove interfacial defects such as precipitates and grain boundaries. A process often called the 'gettering process' is used with phosphorus diffusion in this experiment in an effort to improve the performance of silicon solar cells using UMG silicon. The phosphorous gettering processes were optimized and compared to the standard POCl process so as to increase the minority carrier lifetime(MCLT) with the duration time and temperature as variables. In order to analyze the metal impurity concentration and distribution, secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) was utilized before and after the phosphorous gettering process.

We developed an optimization process of the pulsed laser deposition method to grow epitaxial CeCoIn₅ thin films on MgF₂ substrates. The effects of different deposition parameters on film growth were extensively studied by analyzing the measured X-ray diffraction patterns. All the deposited films contained small amounts of CeIn₃ impurity phase and misoriented CeCoIn₅, for which the c-axis of the unit cell is perpendicular to the normal vector of the substrate surface. The deposition temperature, target composition, laser energy density, and repetition rate were found effective in the formation of (00l)-oriented CeCoIn₅ as well as the undesired phases such as CeIn₃, misoriented CeCoIn₅ along the (112) and (h00). Our results provide a set of deposition parameters that produce high-quality epitaxial CeCoIn₅ thin films with sufficiently low amounts of impurity phases and can serve as a reference for future studies to optimize the deposition process further.

Iron-doped LiNbO$_3$ crystals were grown by floating zone(FZ) method with different [Li]/[Nb] ratio in order to investigate doping effects of transition metal impurity in LiNbO$_3$ crystal. The grown crystals were analyized edge in UV/VIS/IR spectrometry and EPMA(electron probe micro-analysis). The absorption edge in UV-VIS region and OH-absorption peak in IR region were investigated. The change of Fe concentration along the solidification direction was also investigated

Effects of types of semicon compounds on electrical properties of XLPE were investigated. The amounts of charge of XLPE were changed with the contents of additive included in semicon electrodes, but homocharge in cathode was observed. In the aging experiment under high voltage, it was found that semiconductive layer with high impurity contents played an important role in the decrease of ACBD strength of XLPE.

산업체에서 많이 사용되는 연소공정은 배가스 성분의 회수나 제거를 필요로 한다. 최근에는 배가스로부터 이산화탄소를 회수하기 위해 제올라이트 13X를 사용하는 MBA(이동상흡착) 공정이 개발되었다. 본 연구에서는 제올라이트 13X에 대한 이산화탄소, 질소, 이산화황 및 수증기의 흡착 실험을 수행하여 흡착평형 및 고체입자 안으로의 흡착속도를 조사하였다. 여러 실험온도에서의 흡착데이터를 Langmuir, Toth, Freundlich 등온흡착식에 적용하여 각 흡착등온식의 파라미터를 구했고, 이론식에 의한 예측값과 실험데이터가 잘 일치함을 확인하였다. 이산화황과 수증기가 불순물로 존재할 경우에 주성분인 이산화탄소의 흡착량을 측정하였다. 이성분 흡착 데이터는 순수 성분에 대해 얻어진 파라미터를 extended Langmuir 등온흡착식에 적용하여 예측한 결과와 잘 일치하였다. 다만, $H_2O$ 불순물이 대략 ${\sim}10^{-5}H_2O\;mol/g$ zeolite 13X 이하 존재할 때에는 $CO_2$ 흡착량이 순수 $CO_2$의 흡착보다 오히려 소량 증가하는 현상이 관찰되었다. 실험으로 측정한 흡착속도를 구형 입자 확산모델에 적용하여 이산화탄소, 이산화황, 질소, 수분의 확산계수와 활성화에너지를 구했다. 미량의 불순물이 흡착되어있을 때는 이산화탄소나 이산화황의 확산계수가 줄어들었다. 본 연구에서 얻어진 파라미터 값들은 실제 흡착공정의 설계에 유용할 것이다.

건설폐기물 발생량이 급증함에 따라, 폐콘크피트를 파쇄가공한 순환골재를 구조체 콘크리트용으로 사용할 필요성이 증대하고 있다. 그러나 순환골재에는 콘크리트의 물리적 특성에 악영향을 미치는 각종 이물질이 포함되어 있어, 사전에 이물질 함유량을 적절히 판단하기 위한 시험방법이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 순환잔골재와 순환굵은골재에 포함되어 있는 각종 이물질 함유량을 육안관찰에 의하여 선별하기 위한 시험방법을 개발하였으며, 그 결과는 다음과 같다. 1. 현행 KS F 2576(재생골재의 이물질 함유량 시험방법)은 시험대상 순환골재의 종류, 용어의 정의, 시료량, 시험방법 등의 전반적인 개정이 필요하다. 2. 순환골재에 포함된 이물질은 시료의 입경이 1.2mm 이상이면 육안선별이 가능하며, 입경이 클수록 측정 소요시간이 크게 단축된다. 3. 육안선별 방법에 의한 이물질 함유량 시험을 위하여 순환잔골재는 입경 2.5~5mm의 시료 30g, 순환굵은골재는 입경 5mm 이상의 시료 1kg을 대상으로 하면 시험의 용이성 및 정밀도 확보가 가능하다.

Flux법에 의해 성장된 $Bi_2Sr_2CaCu_2O_{8+{\delta}}(Bi2212)$ 단결정의 초전도 특성에 미치는 열처리 및 불순물의 영향을 자화측정에 의해 조사하였다. 초전도 특성은 불순물인 Mg와 Al의 영향을 받음을 알 수 있었으며, 초전도 전이온도(T,) 는 Mg 불순물의 영향에 의해 보다 낮아졌다. 그러나 성장된 결정은 열처리에 의해 초전도 특성이 개선됨을 알 수 있었 으며, 특히 MgO 도가니 사용에 의해 성장된 결정이 $Al_2O_3$ 도가니에 비해서 반자계특성이 현저하게 증가되었다. 반자계 특성의 개선효과에 의해 Mg 불순물은 초전도 특성 열화의 주요 요소라고 생각될 수 없음을 알 수 있었다.

Hydrogen could be produced from any substance containing hydrogen atoms, such as water, hydrocarbon (HC) fuels, acids or bases. Hydrocarbon fuels couold be converted to hydrogen-rich gas through reforming process for hydrogen production. Even though fuel cell have high efficiency with pure hydrogen from gas tank, it is more beneficial to generate hydrogen from city gas (mainly methane) in residential application such as domestic or office environments. Thus hydrogen is generated by reforming process using hydrocarbon. Unfortunately, the reforming process for hydrogen production is accompanied with unavoidable impurities. Impurities such as CO, $CO_2$, $H_2S$, $NH_3$, and $CH_4$ in hydrogen could cause negative effects on fuel cell performance. Those effects are kinetic losses due to poisoning of electrode catalysts, ohmic losses due to proton conductivity reduction including membrane and catalyst ionomer layers, and mass transport losses due to degrading catalyst layer structure and hydrophobic property. Hydrogen produced from reformer eventually contains around 73% of $H_2$, 20% or less of $CO_2$, 5.8% of less of $N_2$, or 2% less of $CH_4$, and 10ppm or less of CO. Most impurities are removed using pressure swing adsorption (PSA) process to get high purity hydrogen. However, high purity hydrogen production requires high operation cost of reforming process. The effect of carbon dioxide on fuel cell performance was investigated in this experiment. The performance of PEM fuel cell was investigated using current vs. potential experiment, long run (10 hr) test, and electrochemical impedance measurement when the concentrations of carbon dioxide were 10%, 20% and 30%. Also, the concentration of impurity supplied to the fuel cell was verified by gas chromatography (GC).

The effects of salts such as aluminum sulfate as inorganic salt(2-4%), and sodium salts of citrate, tartrate, succinate, potassium tartrate and gelatin as organic salts(0.1%) on the formation of ${\alpha}$-calcium sulfate hemihydrate from by-product gypsum of phosphoric acid process under hydrothermal condition at 123$^{\circ}C$ and 133$^{\circ}C$ were investigated. Aluminum sulfate solution exhibited the catalystic effected on the crystallization of ${\alpha}$-calcium sulfate hemihydrate of which was assumed in the prismatic form, and organic salts solution exhibited little effect on the catalystic action to the crystallization, than inorganic salts. In the acidic solution with sulfuric acid(pH=2), needle like crystal of calcium sulfate hemihydrate was obtained. Hydrothermal process with aluminum sulfate solution also showed certain amounts of impurity removal such as phosphorus penataoxide from calcium sulfate hemihydrate.
