Thin films of hydrogenated amorphous silicon carbide compounds ($a-Si_{x}C_{1-x}:H$) of different compositions were deposited on Si substrate by RF plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). Experiments were carried out using silane (SiH$_4$) and methane ($CH_4$) as the gas precursors at 1 Torr and at a low substrate temperature ($250^{\circ}C$). The gas flow rate was changed with the other parameters (pressure, temperature, RF power) fixed. The substrate was Si(100) wafer and all of the films obtained were amorphous. The bonding structure of $a-Si_{x}C_{1-x}:H$films deposited was investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) for the film compositions. In addition, the surface morphology of films was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM).

According to conventional nitriding of tool steels, it was very difficult to produce a high surface hardness. This study has been conducted to investigate the influence of initial structures on the nitriding characteristics of tool steels in gas-nitrided for the improvement in surface hardness. The specimens (SACM645, STD61 steels) have been quenching and tempering at various temperature and then gas-nitrided for 30, 45 and 60hr at 500, 530 and $550^{\circ}C$ respectively in gasatmosphere of 30%$NH_3-70%N_2$ As hardness of initial structure was higher, the nitriding layer was deeper and hardness of the nitriding layer was higher. Deeper nitriding layers was due to higher diffusion rate by fine initial microstructure. Also the reason of high surface hardness was associated with formation of dispersed fine carbonitrides of nitrides.

A CP-GFRP(Carbon Powder-Glass Fiber Reinforced Plastic) sensor was fabricated for fracture detection. The electric resistance of the sensor was measured on condition of various composition of carbon powders and thickness of bundle of glass fibers. The resistance of the sensor was decreased as the increase of the content of carbon powders and the TEX of the glass fibers. In the case of loading on CP-GFRP, because inner crack was propagated, the part of percolation structures was disconnected. These observations show the following results. The conduction of CP-GFRP sensor is due to percolation structure of carbon powders and increase of resistance is due to expansion of cracks.

Polycrystalline Al-Cu ribbons were produced by planar flow casting(PFC). Solidification behavior and microstructual changes of the ribbons have been investigated as a function of ribbon thickness and processing parameters. The solidification front velocity, V varies within the ribbon, decreasing with increasing the distance, S from the wheel-contact surface, as $V=17.6S^{-1}$. In Al-4.5wt%Cu alloy, rapid decrease in solidification velocity toward the free surface causes a change in solidification morphology from planar to cellular, and finally, to dendritic. The length and inclination of columnar grains solidified with planar front were related to the wheel velocity. The transition from particulate degenerate eutectic structure to regular lamellar eutectic structure was observed to be caused by a difference of the relative growth velocites of ${\alpha}-Al$ and ${\theta}$ during solidification in the Al-Cu eutectic alloy.

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.

The microstructure of the zinc electrodeposits was investigated by changing the flow rate of electrolyte in zinc sulfate Bath. The cathode current efficiency increased with increasing flow rate of electrolyte. The preferred orientation of zinc electrodeposit changed from (11.2) texture to (10.3) or (10.1)+(10.2) texture with increasing current density in the range of flow rate, 0.2-1.2m/sec. The morphology of the deposits changed from the sponge deposit to the blocks of hexagonal crystallites packed together through the structures of find polycrystallite with increasing current density. The microstructure of the cross-section of the above deposits are granular structure and columnar structure respectively. The surface roughness of zinc electrodeposits decreased with increasing current density and flow rate of electrolyte.

The alloying of 6.5wt % Silicon in iron decreases the magnetization and the anisotropy and minimizes the iron loss noticeably. But it is very difficult to make thin sheets because of its poor ductility which is due to an ordering reaction (body centered cubic to CsCI type crystal structure). However the ordering reaction can be suppressed by rapid solidification method. The cooling rate of rapidly solidified Fe-6.5wt % Si alloy is about $10^3K/s$ and rapidly solidified structure are fine structure, cellular structure, dendrite and equiaxed grain from surface. The precipitates of $DO_3$ Phase emerges on $B_2$ matrix and the coercive force was 0.51 Oe (50cycle, 15KGauss) in Fe-6.5wt% Si alloy which was processed by heat treatment of $1150^{\circ}C$ for 1hr in high vacuum.

[ $Sr_xBa_{1-x}Nb_2O_6$ ] (SBN, $0.25{\leq}x{\leq}0.75$) ceramic is a ferroelectric material with tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) type structure, which has a high pyroelectric coefficient and a nonlinear electro-optic coefficient value. In spite of its advantages, SBN has not been investigated well compared to other ferroelectric materials with perovskite structure. In this study, SBN thin film was manufactured by ion beam sputtering technique using the prepared SBN target in $Ar/O_2$ atmosphere. SBN30 thin film of $1000{\AA}$ was pre-deposited as a seed layer on $Pt(100)/TiO_2/SiO_2/Si$ substrate followed by SBN60 deposition up to $3000{\AA}$ in thickness. As-deposited SBN60/SBN30 layer was heat-treated at different temperatures of 650, 700, 750, and $800^{\circ}C$ in air, respectively The crystallinity and orientation behavior as well as electric properties of SBN60/SBN30 multi-layer were examined. The deposited layer was uniform and the orientation was shown primarily along (001) plane from XRD pattern. There was no difference in the crystal structure with heat-treatment temperature, but the electric properties depended on the heating temperature and was the best at $750^{\circ}C$. In electric properties of Pt/SBN60/SBN30/Pt thin film capacitor prepared, the remnant polarization (2Pr) value was $15{\mu}C/cm^2$, the coercive field (Ec) 75 kV/cm, and the dielectric constant 1075, respectively.

In the present study, oxidation behavior of 304 and 316 stainless steels was investigated. After solution treatment, specimens were polished up to $1{\mu}m$ $Al_2O_3$ grade and then subjected to oxidation treatment in dry air. The range of temperature was used for oxidation treatment at $300^{\circ}C{\sim}500^{\circ}C$ and TEM was used for analyzing the components and structure of oxide film. Also, these results were compared with the results of ESCA and TG. According to the results of TEM analysis, it was found that Cr oxide film was formed on top of the surface after room temperature oxidation but amorphous Fe oxide was formed on top of the surface and polycrystalline $(Cr,Fe)_2O_3$ was formed below the amorphous Fe oxide layer after $500^{\circ}C$ oxidation treatment. The oxidized specimens at $500^{\circ}C$ showed that 316 stainless steel resists more strongly to grain and grain boundary oxidation than 304 stainless steel. These results suggested that Mo component resolved in 316 stainless steel matrix suppressed the formation of Cr carbide which may results in local Cr deplete area.
