Yttria-stabilized zirconia ceramics with irregular grain shapes and curved grain boundaries was prepared by ceria doping. The amount of ceria doped into zirconia compacts by a dipping method were at range of 2 to 20 mol% Irregular grain shapes and curved grain boundaries were formed only inspecimens doped with more than 8mol% cerial. Ceria-doped specimens showed large grain size and low sintered density compared with pure yttria-stabilized zirconia which was due to the increase in the contents of stabilizer and cubic phase. The amount of doped ceria was larger on the surface than the inside regions and therefore mi-crostructure and phase on the surface were different from those in the inside regions. Transgranular frac-ture mode was observed ion ceria doped specimens due to irregular large grain sizes.

불규칙 입자형성을 갖는 Ce-TZP와 알루미나가 분산된 Ce-TZP 세라믹스를 세라아 도핑조선과 열처리 조건을 변화시켜 제조한 다음, 미세구조를 관찰하였다. 제조된 시편들은 상대밀도가 99% 이상인 고밀도의 소결체였으며, 정방정 및 입방정상 지르코니아 입자로 구성되었다. 도핑하지 않거나 소결만 시킨 시편의 경우 직선적인 입계와 정상적인 입자형성을 나타낸데 비하여 세리아를 침적법으로 도핑한 후 고온으로 열처리한 시편에서는 확산구동 입계이동이 일어나 입계 및 입자형성이 불규칙하였으며. 이러한 Ce-TZP에서는 입자당 평균 입계같이 정상입자에 비하여 크게 증가하였다. 알루미나를 분산시켜 소결한 {{{{ { Al}_{2 }{ O}_{3 } }}}}/Ce- TZP 시편의 경우, 알루미나 입자에 의해서 입성장이 크게 억제되었고, 세리아를 도핑한 후 소결과 열처리를 행한 {{{{ { Al}_{2 }{ O}_{3 } }}}}/Ce-TZP에서는 불규칙 입자형상이 형성되면서도 입성장이 억제되어 입자크기에 비하여 입계면적이 크게 증가하였다. 분산된 알루미나 입자들은 소결과 열처리 과정 중 입자크기가 증가하였고, 열처리 동안 많은 입자들이 입계에서 입내로 위치가 변화하였다. 정상적인 입자형성을 갖은 시편에서는 균열진전시 입계파괴가 주로 일어났으나 불규칙 입자형성을 갖는 시편에서는 주로 입내파괴가 관찰되었다.

Hihg-toughened ceria-stabilized tetragonal zirconia ceramics with irregular grain shape and undulated grain boundary was prepared by ceria doping. Irregularity of grain shapes was increased with the amount of doped ceria. But in case of the large amount of doped ceria grain boundary was migrated to the reverse direction of DIGM. Ceria-stabilized zirconia ceramics annealed at 1650$^{\circ}C$ for 2h after twice dippings into cerium nitrate solu-tion of 0.2M and sintering at 1500$^{\circ}C$ for 2h showed the highest grain boundary length with a value of 23.6$\mu\textrm{m}$ Ceria concentration difference between convex and concave sides in irregular grains was observed over 1 mol% but not observed in normal grains, Specimens with normal grain shape showed intergranular fracture mode whereas the specimens with irregular grain shape showed transgranular fracture mode.

Tin oxide thin films were deposited by rf reactive sputtering and annealed at $400^{\circ}C$ for 1 h in vacuum. To minimize the influence such as reduction, oxidation, and doping on tin oxide thin films during annealing, a vacuum ambient annealing was adopted. The structural, optical, and electrical properties of tin oxide thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction, atomic force microscope, UV-Vis spectrometer, and Hall effect measurements. After vacuum annealing, the grain size of all thin films was slightly increased and the roughness ($R_a$) was improved, however irregular and coalesced shapes were observed from the most of the films. These irregular and coalesced crystal shapes and the possible elimination of intrinsic defects might have caused a decrease in both carrier concentration and mobility, which degrades electrical conductivity.

In this study, we investigated the effects of extrusion ratio and extrusion temperature on the microstructure and tensile properties of extruded Mg-6Al-0.3Mn-0.3Ca-0.2Y (SEN6) alloy. As the extrusion ratio and temperature increase, dynamic recrystallization during extrusion is promoted, leading to the formation of a fully recrystallized microstructure with increased grain size. Additionally, the increases in extrusion ratio and temperature lead to texture strengthening, exhibiting a higher maximum texture intensity. The extruded materials contain three types of secondary phases, i.e., Al₈Mn₄Y, Al₂Y, and Al₂Ca, with irregular or polygonal shapes. The quantity, size, distribution, and area fraction of the second-phase particles are nearly identical between the two materials. Despite its larger grain size, the tensile yield strength of the material extruded at 450 ℃ and an extrusion ratio of 25 (450-25) is higher than that of the material extruded at 325 ℃ and an extrusion ratio of 10 (325-10), which is mainly attributed to the stronger texture hardening effect of the former. The ultimate tensile strength is similar in the two materials, owing to the higher work hardening rate in the 325-10 extrudate. Despite differences in grain size and recrystallization fraction, numerous twins are formed throughout the specimen during tensile deformation in both materials; consequently, the two materials exhibit nearly the same tensile elongation.

This study conducted sedimentological and geophysical surveys for 3 years (2006-2008) in southern Gyeonggi Bay, Korea to elucidate temporal changes in subaqueous dune morphology on a sand ridge trending northeast to southwest that has been excavated by marine sand mining. The sand ridge (~20 m in height, ~2 km in width and 3~4 km in length) has a steep slope on the NW side and a gentle slope on the SE side, creating an asymmetric profile. Large (10~100 m in length) and very large (>100 m in length) dunes occurring on the SE side of the ridge show a northeastward asymmetrical shape, whereas dunes on the NW side destroyed by marine sand mining display a southwestward asymmetry. The comparison between Flemming (1988)'s correlation and the height-length correlation of this study indicates that tidal current and availability of sand sediment are major controlling factors to the development and maintenance of dunes. Depth and sedimentary characteristics (grain size) are not likely to be major controlling factors, but indirectly influence dune growth by hydrological and sedimentary processes. The length and the height of dunes decrease toward the southeastern trough away from the crest of the ridge. These features result from the decrease of tidal current and sediment availability. The length and the height of dunes on the southeast side decrease gradually over time. This is a result of the interaction between tidal current and the decrease in sediment availability due to sediment extraction by marine sand mining. Marine sand mining has destroyed the dunes directly, causing irregular shapes of shorter length and lower height. The coarse fraction of suspended sediments is transported and deposited very close to the sand pit. By contrast, relatively fine sediments are transported by the tidal current and deposited over a wide range by the settling-lag effect, resulting in a decrease of sediment grain size in the area where suspended sediments are deposited. In addition, marine sand mining, decreases the height of dunes. Therefore, morphological and sedimentological characteristics of dunes around the sand pits will be significantly changed by future sand mining activities.

구봉 금-은광상은 선캠브리아기 경기육괴의 호상 또는 화강편마암내에 발달된 단열대(NE, NW)를 따라 충진한 함 금-은괴상석영맥광상이다. 이 광상의 광화작용은 여러번의 단열작용에 의해 형성된 동일시기의 석영맥으로 구성되어있다. 산출되는 광석광물은 주로 유비철석, 황철석, 섬아연석, 황동석, 방연석과 소량의 자류철석, 백철석, 에렉트럼 등이다. 에렉트럼의 공생광물에 따른 산출빈도와 산출량은 각각 유비철석(44.5%, 54.3%), 석영(24.3%, 33.8%), 황철석(12.6%, 0.1%), 방연석(11.0%, 4.8%), 섬아연석(5.0%, 7.0%), 황동석(2.5%, 0.02%)의 순이다. 에렉트럼의 산출형태는 불규칙형(41.6%), 반원형(34.7%), 신장형(17.0%) 및 입상형(6.6%)이다. 에렉트럼의 입자 크기는 2 um에서 150 um 까지 다앙하게 산출되나 30 um 이하가 전체의 90.9%를 차지한다. 에렉트럼의 화학조성은 26.39∼72.51 Au atomic% 이다. 공생광물에 따른 에렉트럼의 화학조성(Au atomic %)은 유비천석-황철석-섬아연석-석영(44.97∼71.75), 석영(44.37∼72.51), 섬아연석 -황동석 (35.40∼41.01), 황철석-황동석-석영-방연석 (26.39∼54.84), 방연석 (28.49∼53.28) 이다. 그러므로 이들 결과를 부유선광시 고려한다면 금의 회수율을 향상시키는데 도움이 될 것이다.
