The basic composition of Ni-Zn ferrite was $(Ni_{0.35}Cu_{0.2}Zn_{0.45})_{1.02}(Fe_2O_3)_{0.98}$ (group A) and $(Ni_{0.4}Cu_{0.2}Zn_{0.4})_{1.02}(Fe_2O_3)_{0.98}$(group B) with additional 0.1 mol% $CaCO_3$ and 0.03 mol% $V_2O_5$. For high permeability and acceleration of grain growth, $CaCO_3$ and $V_2O_5$ was added. The mixture of the law materials was calcinated at $600^{\circ}C$ for 2 hours and then milled. The compacts of toroidal type were sintered at different temperature ($1,050^{\circ}C,\;1,070^{\circ}C,\;1,100^{\circ}C$) for 2 hours in air followed by an air cooling. Then, effects of various composition and sintering temperatures on the microstructure and physical properties such as density, resistivity, magnetic induction, coercive force, initial permeability, quality factor, and curie temperature of the Ni-Zn ferrite were investigated. The density of the Ni-Zn ferrite was $4.90{\sim}5.10g/cm^3$, resistivity revealed $10^8{\sim}10^{12}{\Omega}-cm$. The average grain size increased with the increase of sintering temperatures. The magnetic properties obtained from the aforementioned Ni-Zn ferrite specimens were 4,000 gauss for the maximum induction, 0.25 oersted for the coercive force, 2,997 for the initial permeability, 208 for the quality factor, and $202^{\circ}C$ for the curie temperature. The physical properties indicated that the specimens could be utilized as the core of microwave communication and high permeability deflection yoke of high permeability.

Electrochemical cell, $Pt|air(PO_2=5.3{\times}10^{-3}atm)|Zr_{0.85}Ca_{0.15}O_{1.85}|air(PO_2= 0.21atm)|Pt$, has been designed to characterize the solid electrolyte and the temperature dependence of the electromotive force (EMF) has been measured in a temperature range of 600∼1000${\circ}$C. Solid electrolyte shows pure ionic conduction of the oxygen anion. The Fe-FexO, Co-CoO, Ni-NiO, and Cu2O-CuO electrodes have been prepared by mixing the 1 : 1 mole ratio of each metal and metal oxide and then by heating at 800${\circ}$C for 6 hours. Electrochemical cells, Pt│M(s), $MO(s)|Zr_{0.85}Ca_{0.15}O_{1.85}|air(PO_2=0.21atm)|Pt$, have been designed and the temperature dependence of the EMF has also been measured in the same temperature range. The changes of the thermodynamic state functions for the formation of the metal oxides are calculated from the electromotive forces and their temperature dependences. The material properties of the oxide systems are also discussed with the function changes.

The initial NiCuZn synthetic ferrite were acquired from thermally decomposing the metal nitrates Fe($NO_3$)$_3$ㆍ$9H_2$O, Zn($NO_3$)$_2$ㆍ$6H_2$O, Ni($NO_3$3)$_2$ㆍ $6H_2$O and Cu(NO$_3$)$_2$ㆍ $3H_2$O at 1$50^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours and was calcined at $500^{\circ}C$. Each of those was pulverized for 3 and 9 hours in a steel ball mill and was sintered between $700^{\circ}C$ and $1,000^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, and then their microstructures and magnetic properties were examined. We could make the initial specimens chemically bonded in liquid at the temperature as low as $150 ^{\circ}C$, by using the melting points less than $ 200^{\circ}C$ of the metal nitrates instead of the mechanical ball milling, then narrowed a distance between the particles into a molecular level, and thus lowed sintering temperature by at least $200 ^{\circ}C$ to $300^{\circ}C$ Their initial permeability was 50 to 490 and their saturation magnetic induction density and coercive force 2,400G and 0.3 Oe to 1.2 Oe each, which were similar to those of NiCuZn ferrite synthesized in the conventional process.

The immobilization of APTMS(3-(2-aminoethylamino)propyltrimethoxysilane) and AAPTMS(3-(2-(2-aminoethyl)aminoethylanino)propyltrimethoxysilane) on the surface of high quality mesoporous molecular sieves MCM-41 and MCM-48 have been confirmed by F.T.-IR spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, 29Si solid state NMR, and a surface polarity measurement using Reichardt's dye. The formation of metal (Co(Ⅱ), Ni(Ⅱ), and Cu(Ⅱ)) complexes by immobilized aminosilanes have been investigated by photoacoustic spectroscopy(PAS). The assignment of UV-Vis. PAS bands makes it possible to identify the structure of metal complexes within mesoporous molecular sieves. Co(Ⅱ) ion may be coordinated mainly in a tetrahedral symmetry by two APTMS onto MCM-41, and in an octahedral one by two AAPTMS. Both Ni(Ⅱ) and Cu(Ⅱ) coordinated by aminosilanes within MCM-41 form possibly the octahedral complexes such as [Ni(APTMS)2(H20)2]2+, [Ni(AAPTMS)2]2+, [Cu(APTMS)2(H2O)2]2+, and [Cu(AAPTMS)(H2O)3]2+, respectively. The PAS band shapes of complexes onto MCM-48 are similar to those of corresponding MCM-41 with the variation of PAS intensity. Most of metal ion(Ⅱ) within MCM-41 and MCM-48 are coordinated by aminosilanes without the impregnation on the surface.

We investigated the characteristics of electroless plated Cu films on screen printed Ag/Anodized Al substrate. Cu plating was attempted using neutral electroless plating processes to minimize damage of the anodized Al substrate; this method used sodium hypophosphite instead of formaldehyde as a reducing agent. The basic electroless solution consisted of $CuSO_4{\cdot}5H_2O$ as the main metal source, $NaH_2PO_2{\cdot}H_2O$ as the reducing agent, $C_6H_5Na_3O_7{\cdot}2H_2O$ and $NH_4Cl$ as the complex agents, and $NiSO_4{\cdot}6H_2O$ as the catalyser for the oxidation of the reducing agent, dissolved in deionized water. The pH of the Cu plating solutions was adjusted using $NH_4OH$. According to the variation of pH in the range of 6.5~8, the electroless plated Cu films were coated on screen printed Ag pattern/anodized Al/Al at $70^{\circ}C$. We investigated the surface morphology change of the Cu films using FE-SEM (Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy). The chemical composition of the Cu film was determined using XPS (X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy). The crystal structures of the Cu films were investigated using XRD (X-ray Diffraction). Using electroless plating at pH 7, the structures of the plated Cu-rich films were typical fcc-Cu; however, a slight Ni component was co-deposited. Finally, we found that the formation of Cu film plated selectively on PCB without any lithography is possible using a neutral electroless plating process.

The chemisorption effect of CO on the Ni/Cu(001) surface was investigated using LEED(Low Energy Electron Diffraction) and EELS(Electron Energy Loss Spectrscopy0 under the UHV conditions. after mounting the Cu(001) single crystal in the UHV chamber (base pressure 1$\times$10-10Torr), a clean surface was obtained after a few cycles of repeated Ar+ ion sputtering and annealing at about 40$0^{\circ}C$. The epitaxial thin Ni films were formed on the Cu(001) by evaporation from 99.999% Ni block. The pseudomorphic growth and the orderness of the thin Ni films were monitored by c(2$^{\circ}C$2) LEED pattern. CO adlayers on Ni epitaxial thin films were prepared by dosing pure CO has through a leak valve. After CO adsorpton at room temperature, two pairs of peaks were observed by EELS, whose relative intensities are changed as the film thickness is varied and time is elapsed. These two pair of peaks are likely related to different bonding sites (-top and bridge sites) of C-Ni as well as C-O vibration. Experimental results and qualitative interpretation of the spectra wille be discussed. The possibility of using EELS in combination with probe species (CO) to investigate the nature of thin film growth is mentioned. We will report the experimental result of O2 dosage on Ni film and interaction of CO and O2.

Template condensation reactions of formaldehyde with appropriate tetramines and diamines in the presence of N(II) or Cu(II) ion produce square planar complexes of hexaaza macrotricyclic and macrotetracyclic ligands $[M(L)]^{2+}$(M = Ni(II) or Cu(II); L = 4-methyl-1,3,6,8,11,14-hexaazatricyclo[12,2,1,$1^{8,11}$]octadecane(C), 1,3,10,12,15,18-hexaazatetracyclo[16,2,1,$1^{12,15},0^{4,9}]$docosane(D) 4-methyl-1,3,6,8,12,15-hexaazatricyclo[13,3,1,$1^{8,12}$]eicosane(F), or 1,3,10,12,16,19-hexaazatetracyclo[l7,3,1,$1^{12,16},0^{4,9}]$tetracosane(G). These complexes contain two 1,3-diazacyclopentane or 1,3-diazacyclohexane rings in the six-membered chelate rings. The complexes of C and F contain one methyl group and those of D and G one cyclohexane ring in the five-membered chelate ring. Synthesis and characterization of the Ni(II) and Cu(II) complexes are presented. The effects of the ligand structure on the equilibrium $[Ni(L)]^{2+}2H_2O{\rightleftharpoons}[Ni(L)(H_2O)_2]^{2+}$ in aqueous solutions are described.

Removal of Cr, Ni and Cu impurities on Si surfaces using remote plasma-excited hydrogen was investigated. Si surfaces were contaminated intentionally by acetone with low purity. To determine the optimum process condition, remote plasma-excited hydrogen cleaning was conducted for various rf-powers and plasma exposure times. After remote plasma-excited hydrogen cleaning, Si surfaces were analyzed by Total X-ray Reflection Fluorescence(TXRF), Surface Photovoltage(SPV) and Atomic Forece Microscope(AFM). The concentrations of Cr, Ni and Cu impurities were reduced and the minority carrier lifetime increased after remote plasma-excited hydrogen. Also RMS roughness decreased by more than 30% after remote plasma-excited hydrogen cleaning. AFM analysis results also show that remote plasma-excited hydrogen cleaning causes no damage to the Si surface. TXRF analysis results show that remote plasma-excited hydrogen cleaning is effective in eliminating metallic impurities from Si surface only if it is performed under an optimum process conditions. The removal mechanism of the Cr, Ni and Cu impurities using remote plasma-excited hydrogen treatments is proposed to be the lift-off during removal of underlying chemical oxides.

The reaction of bromoacetonitrile with 3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatetracyclo[$16.4.1^{2.6}.0^{1.18}.0^{7.12}$]tricosane ($L^{10}$) containing a N-$CH_2$-N linkage produces 17-cyanomethyl-3,14-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatetracyclo-[$16.4.1^{2.6}.0^{1.18}.0^{7.12}$]tricosane ($L^{11}$). The mono-N-functionalized macrocyclic complexes $[ML^2]^{2+}$ (M = Ni(II) or Cu(II); $L^2$ = 2-cyanomethyl-5,16-dimethyl-2,6,13,17-tetraazatricyclo[$16.4.0.0^{7.12}$]docosane) can be prepared by the reaction of $L^{11}$ with nickel(II) or copper(II) ion in acetonitrile. The N-$CH_2CN$ group attached to $[ML^2]^{2+}$ readily reacts with water or methanol to yield the corresponding complexes of $HL^3$ bearing one N-$CH_2CONH_2$ pendant arm or $L^4$ bearing one $N-CH_2C(=NH)OCH_3$ group. The $N-CH_2CONH_2$ or $N-CH_2C(=NH)OCH_3$ group of each complex is coordinated to the central metal ion. Both $[NiL^4(H_2O)]^{2+}$ and $[CuL^4]^{2+}$ are quite stable in acidic aqueous solutions, but undergo hydrolysis to yield $[Ni(HL^3)(H_2O)]^{2+}$ or $[Cu(HL^3)]^{2+}$ in basic aqueous solutions. In contrast to $[Cu(HL^3)]^{2+}$, $[Ni(HL^3) (H_2O)]^{2+}$ is readily deprotonated to form $[NiL^3 (H_2O)]^+$ ($L^3$ = a deprotonated form of $HL^3$) in basic aqueous solutions.
