Polyimides and related polymers, when synthesized from aromatic monomers, have generally rigid chain structures resulting in a low gas permeability. The rigidity of polymer chains reduces the segmental motion of chains and works as a good barrier against gas transport. To overcome the limit of use as materials of gas separation membranes due to low gas permeability, block copolymers with the incorporation of flexible segments like siloxane linkage and ether linkage have been studied. These block copolymers have microphase-separated structures composed of microdomains of flexible poly(dimethylsiloxane) or polyether segments and of rigid polyimides segments. In case of rigid-flexible block copolymers, the characteristics of both phases for gas permeation are of great difference. The permeation of gas molecules occurs favorably through microdomains of flexible segments, whereas those of rigid segments hinder the permeation of gas molecules. Accordingly the increase of content of flexible segments in a rigid polymer matrix will increase the gas permeability of the membrane linearly. However, this prediction does not satisfy enough many experimental results and in particular the drastic increase of the permeability is observed in a certain volume fraction. It was proposed that the gas transport mechanism is dominated by diffusion rather than gas solubility in a certain content of flexible phase if solution-diffusion mechanism is adopted. However, the transition from solubility-dependent to diffusion-dependent cannot be explained by the understanding of mechanism itself. Therefore, we consider an effective chemical path which permeable phase can form in a microheterogenous medium, and percolation concept is introduced to describe the permeability transition at near threshold where for the first time a percolation path occurs. The volume fraction of both phases is defined as V$_{\alpha}$ and V$_{\beta}$ in block copolymers, and the volume of $\beta$ phase in the threshold forming geometrically a traversing channel is defined as V$_{\betac}$. The formation mechanism of shortest chemical channel is schematically depicted in Fig. 1.

In this paper, novel ball grid array (BGA) interconnection process using solderable anisotropic conductive adhesives (SACAs) with low-melting-point alloy (LMPA) fillers have been developed to enhance the processability in the conventional capillary underfill technique and to overcome the limitations in the no-flow underfill technique. To confirm the feasibility of the proposed technique, BGA interconnection test was performed using two types of SACA with different LMPA concentration (0 and 4 vol%). After the interconnection process, the interconnection characteristics such as morphology of conduction path and electrical properties of BGA assemblies were inspected and compared. The results indicated that BGA assemblies using SACA without LMPA fillers showed weak conduction path formation such as solder bump loss or short circuit formation because of the expansion of air bubbles within the interconnection area due to the relatively high reflow peak temperature. Meanwhile, assemblies using SACA with 4 vol% LMPAs showed stable metallurgical interconnection formation and electrical resistance due to the favorable selective wetting behavior of molten LMPAs for the solder bump and Cu metallization.

디스플레이, 태양전지와 같이 전기를 빛으로, 또는 빛을 전기로 변환시켜주는 광전자소자는 효율 향상을 위하여 빛의 거동 제어가 매우 중요하다. 즉, OLED의 경우 내부 빛 제어를 통해 더 많은 빛이 외부로 나갈 수 있도록 유도해 줄 때 발광효율을 향상시킬 수 있으며, 외부 빛 제어를 통해 광흡수층에서의 광경로를 증대시킬 경우 태양전지의 에너지 변환효율을 증가시킬 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 이러한 광거동 제어가 가능한 구조로서 주름구조에 대한 연구를 진행하였으며 응력 해소 시간을 제어하여 구조의 주기와 높이를 독립적으로 제어하고자 하였다. 주기와 높이의 변화가 광거동에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지 살펴보기 위하여 일정한 주기에서 높이 변화 및 유사한 높이에서 주기 변화에 따른 자외선/가시광선 분광분석(UV/Vis spectroscopy)을 실시하였으며 구조의 종횡비가 클수록 직진광의 비율이 낮고 분산광의 비율이 높음을 확인하였다. 이를 통해 광경로 변화 및 광경로 증가를 위하여 큰 종횡비의 주름구조가 요구됨을 확인할 수 있었다.

Objectives: This study aimed to compare the torsional and cyclic fatigue resistance of ProGlider (PG), WaveOne Gold Glider (WGG), and TruNatomy Glider (TNG). Materials and Methods: A total of 15 instruments of each glide path system (n = 15) were used for each test. A custom-made device simulating an angle of 90° and a radius of 5 millimeters was used to assess cyclic fatigue resistance, with calculation of number of cycles to failure. Torsional fatigue resistance was assessed by maximum torque and angle of rotation. Fractured instruments were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Data were analyzed with Shapiro-Wilk and Kruskal-Wallis tests, and the significance level was set at 5%. Results: The WGG group showed greater cyclic fatigue resistance than the PG and TNG groups (p < 0.05). In the torsional fatigue test, the TNG group showed a higher angle of rotation, followed by the PG and WGG groups (p < 0.05). The TNG group was superior to the PG group in torsional resistance (p < 0.05). SEM analysis revealed ductile morphology, typical of the 2 fracture modes: cyclic fatigue and torsional fatigue. Conclusions: Reciprocating WGG instruments showed greater cyclic fatigue resistance, while TNG instruments were better in torsional fatigue resistance. The significance of these findings lies in the identification of the instruments' clinical applicability to guide the choice of the most appropriate instrument and enable the clinician to provide a more predictable glide path preparation.

Transport phenomena of reactant and product are directly linked to intrinsic inhomogeneous random configurations of catalyst layer (CL) that consist of ionomer, carbon-supported catalyst (Pt/C), and pores. Hence, electrochemically active surface area (ECSA) of Pt/C is dominated by geometrical morphology of mass transport path. Undoubtedly these ECSAs are key factor of total fuel cell efficiency. In this study, non-deterministic micro-scale CLs were randomly generated by Monte Carlo method and implemented with the percolation process. To ensure valid inference about Pt/C catalyst utilization, 600 samples were chosen as the number of necessary samples with 95% confidence level. Statistic results of 600 samples generated under particular condition (20vol% Pt/C, 30vol% ionomer, 50vol% pore, and 20nm particle diameter) reveal only 18.2%~81.0% of Pt/C can construct ECSAs with mean value of 53.8%. This study indicates that the catalyst utilization in fuel cell CLs cannot be identical notwithstanding the same design condition.

This study was performed to clarification of the formation of weld discontinuities in the dissimilar laser fusion zone. Welding parameters were beam power of 1300, 1430, 1560, and 1700 W and travel speed of 1, 1.3, and 1.7 m/min. Most cavities in the fusion zone were observed near the tip. Cavities in the fusion zone observed to be formed and grown from pores in the tip. More cavities were formed as the beam position moves to the tip side. Small cavities were decreased but large cavities were increased when the energy input increased. W content in the fusion zone was increased with heat input and as the beam position close to the tip. In the fusion zone, W content in the dendrite boundary was increased with heat input. Considering the propagation path and fracture morphology, cracks were solidification cracking, and were initiated and propagated along the dendrite boundaries. The formation of cracks might be related with the W rich ${\mu}$ phase which was formed in the grain boundaries and dendrite boundaries.

We present results from an experimental study of conductivity change of poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) film according to the surface structuring. We demonstrate that the patterned structure was enhanced with approximately five times conductivity in comparison with non structure of PEDOT:PSS film. In order to patterning, we have fabricated polystyrene (PS) colloidal monolayer as a template with sphere diameter of 780nm and 1.8um. Structure has honeycomb shape and it provide shorter path way to flowing of electron. Pattern size was controlled by PS diameter and varied by Transformer Coupled Plasma (TCP) etching system. Conductivity was converted from sheet resistance which measured by 4-point prove. Film thickness was derived using Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM) images.

실리콘 태양전지에 사용되는 ZnO 박막의 특성은 적외선과 가시광선 영역에서 높은 투과도 (>80%)와 낮은 비저항(<10-2) 외에 산란(scattering)에 의한 빛의 광학적 경로(optical path) 증가로 활성층(active layer)에서의 광 흡수도 증가 및 입사광의 재반사를 방지할 수 있는 표면 형상(morphology)의 제어가 중요하다. 일반적으로 우선 배향성(preferred orientation)이 <0002>방향으로 texturing된 ZnO박막보다 <1120>방향으로 texturing된 박막이 더 우수한 광 산란 효과를 보인다. 따라서, 이 논문에서는 유기화학증착공정으로 증착한 ZnO 박막의 texture 형성에 있어 박막 증착 온도 및 원료로 사용하는 DEZ(Diethylzinc)와 H2O의 상대농도 변화에 따른 texture 방향의 변화에 대해 고찰하였다. 반응기내의 압력을 0.67 torr로고정하고 기판온도를 $90^{\circ}C$에서 $170^{\circ}C$까지 $20^{\circ}C$간격으로 증가시키고, $120^{\circ}C$에서 H2O/DEZ의 비를 0.1에서 4까지 변화시켰다. 기판온도가 증가함에 따라 ZnO박막의 texture 방향은 <0002>에서 <1120> 방향으로 변화하였다. 또한 $120^{\circ}C$에서 H2O/DEZ 비가 증가함에 따라 ZnO 박막의 texture 방향은 <0002>에서 <1120> 방향으로 변화하였다. 이에 따른 광투과, 광산란 특성과 전기적 특성의 변화를 조사하였다.

In this paper, novel carbon nanotube (CNT)-filled Solderable electrically conductive adhesive (ECA) and joining process have been developed. To investigate the bonding characteristics of CNT-filled Solderable ECA, three types of Solderable ECAs with different CNT weight percent (0, 0.1, 1wt%) were formulated. For a joining process, the quad flat package (QFP) chip was used. The QFP chip had a size of $14{\times}14{\times}2.7$ mm and a 1 mm lead pitch. The test board had a Cu daisy-chained pattern with 18 ${\mu}m$ thick. After the bonding process, the bonding characteristics such as morphology of conduction path, electrical resistance and pull strength were measured for each formulated ECAs. As a result, the electrical and mechanical bonding characteristics for a QFP joints using CNT-filled ECA were improved about 10% compared to those of QFP joints using ECA without CNT.

Masticatory function is more important than esthetics in posterior fixed restoration. The usual technique-mounting the casts on a semi-adjustable articulator, etc. -cannot make all patients satisfied with their restorations. For example, functionally generated path technique can be an easier and more satisfactory method in the restoration of group function. These clinical reports describe various approaches for occlusal restoration of relatively simple posterior fixed protheses according to patients occlusal patterns. The 3-unit bridge restoration is one of the most popular treatment options in prosthodontics. Because dentists have much experiences of it, they restore a missing span of one tooth mechanically, that is, without special consideration. While esthetics is important in making an anterior 3-unit fixed prostheses, mastication is more focused on in posterior 3-unit bridge restoration. Many dentists are concerned about various aspects in esthetics, such as morphology of the tooth, value, chroma, hue, translucency, surface texture, etc. But they do not usually consider various methods to restore occlusion. They treat one-tooth-missing area in a similar way in spite of patients having variety of occlusal patterns. Three cases are presented here in 3 or 4-unit bridge restoration. They show some methods to restore patients' occlusal patterns.
