The need for lead-free piezoceramics has caused a renewal of interest in $BaTiO_3$-based systems. Recently, it was found that ceramics in the $(Ba,Ca)(Zr,Ti)O_3$ system have properties comparable to those of $Pb(Zr,Ti)O_3$. However, these ceramics require rather high sintering temperatures of $1450-1550^{\circ}C$. In this work, the effect of $TiO_2$ and CuO addition on the sintering behavior, microstructure, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of $(Ba_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})(Zr_{0.1}Ti_{0.9})O_3$ (BCTZ) ceramics will be discussed. BCTZ ceramics were prepared by the mixed oxide route and 1 mol % of $TiO_2$ or CuO was added. Undoped and doped ceramics were sintered at $1350^{\circ}C$ for 1-5 h. CuO was found to be a very effective sintering aid, with samples sintered for 1 h at $1350^{\circ}C$ having a bulk density of 95% theoretical density; however the piezoelectric properties were greatly reduced, probably due to the small grain size.

In this study, a gradient material for shielding neutrons and gamma rays was developed, which consists of epoxy resin, boron carbide (B₄C), lead (Pb) and a little graphene oxide. It aims light weight and compact, which will be applied on the transportable nuclear reactor. The material is made up of sixteen layers, and the thickness and components of each layer were designed by genetic algorithm (GA) combined with Monte Carlo N Particle Transport (MCNP). In the experiment, the viscosities of the epoxy at different temperatures were tested, and the settlement regularity of Pb particles and B₄C particles in the epoxy was simulated by matlab software. The material was manufactured at 25 ℃, the Pb C and O elements of which were also tested, and the result was compared with the outcome of the simulation. Finally, the material's shielding performance was simulated by MCNP and compared with the uniformity material's. The result shows that the shielding performance of gradient material is more effective than that of the uniformity material, and the difference is most noticeable when the materials are 30 cm thick.

Photovoltaic (PV) cell is considered as one of the finest ways to utilize the solar power. A study of improving solar cell's efficiency is important because the lifetime of solar cell is determined by photovoltaic module technology. Therefore, oxidation (and/or corrosion) of solder materials will be one of the primary yield and long-term reliability risk factor. Recently, the development of lead-free solder alloy has been done actively about lead-free solder alloys of the thermodynamic and mechanical properties. However, the oxidation behavior have rarely been investigated In this study, the oxidations of 60 wt% Sn-40 wt% Pb, 62 wt% Sn-36 wt% Pb -2 wt% Ag, 50wt% Sn-48 wt% Bi-2 wt% Ag alloys for the interconnect ribbon after exposure in atmosphere at $100^{\circ}C$ for several times were investigated. The wettability of 62 wt% Sn-36 wt% Pb-2 wt% Ag and 50 wt% Sn-48 wt% Bi-2 wt% Ag solders was also studied to compare with that of 60 wt% Sn-40 wt% Pb alloy. The results howed that the zero cross time and the wetting time of 50 wt% Sn-48 wt% Bi-2 wt% Ag solder were better than other two samples. The surface of tested samples was analyzed by XPS. The XPS result showed that in all samples, SnO grew first and then the mixture of SnO and $SnO_2$ was detected. $SnO_2$ grew predominantly for the long time aging. Moreover XPS depth profile analysis has found surface enrichment of tin oxide.

For the purpose of the curative effects of oral D-penicillamine in lead poisoning, D-penicillamine was orally administered to 7 lead poisoned workers which were employed in glaze product industry dealing with the lead oxide ($Pb_3O_4$). The doses of D-penicillamine was 1,200mg per day which was administered by oral 7days schedules, taking for 5 days and stopping for the following 2days, repeatedly during 3 months period. (All the poisoned workers started working again in that industry after 1 month treatment, and were treated by oral D-penicillamine for 2 months still being exposed to contaminated environment.) In order to evaluate the curative effects of D-penicillamine, 10gm of whole blood and 24 hours urine were collected every 14 days during the curative period for laboratory analysis(hemoglobin, blood lead, urine $\sigma$-aminolevulinic acid, urine coproporphyrin, and urine lead levels) with the observation of the clinical symptoms. The results were as follows; 1. Oral D-penicillamine effected good curative results as that hemoglobin, blood lead, urine $\sigma$-aminolevulinic acid, and urine coproporphyrin levels were decreased below the critical level within 1 month treatment. 2. After re-exposure, oral D-penicillamine effected to some extent as that urine lead level was decreased below the critical level after 3 months treatment with disappearence of the clinical symptoms after 2 months treatment. However, the curative effects of oral D-penicillamine in the lead exposure state is questionable since increasement of blood lead level and remarkable decreasement of urine lead level after 3 months treatment can be observed.

Organolead halide perovskite have attracted much attention over the past three years as the third generation photovoltaic due to simple fabrication process via solution process and their great photovoltaic properties. Many structures such as mesoporous scaffold, planar heterojunction or 1-D TiO2 or ZnO nanorod array structures have been studied to enhance performances. And the photovoltaic performances and carrier transport properties were studied depending on the cell structures and shape of perovskite film. For example, the perovskite cell based on TiO2/ZnO nanorod electron transport materials showed higher electron mobility than the mesoporous structured semiconductor layer due to 1-D direct pathway for electron transport. However, the reason for enhanced performance was not fully understood whether either the shape of perovskite or the structure of TiO2/ZnO nanorod scaffold play a dominant role. In this regard, for a clear understanding of the shape/structure of perovskite layer, we applied anodized aluminum oxide material which is good candidate as the inactive scaffold that does not influence the charge transport. We fabricated vertical one dimensional (1-D) nanostructured methylammonium lead mixed halide perovskite (CH3NH3PbI3-xClx) solar cell by infiltrating perovskite in the pore of anodized aluminum oxide (AAO). AAO template, one of the common nanostructured materials with one dimensional pore and controllable pore diameters, was successfully fabricated by anodizing and widening of the thermally evaporated Al film on the compact TiO2 layer. Using AAO as a scaffold for perovskite, we obtained 1-D shaped perovskite absorber, and over 15% photo conversion efficiency was obtained. I-V measurement, photoluminescence, impedance, and time-limited current collection were performed to determine vertically arrayed 1-D perovskite solar cells shaped in comparison with planar heterojunction and mesoporous alumina structured solar cells. Our findings lead to reveal the influence of the shape of perovskite layer on photoelectrical properties.

The effect of annealing on the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized Al-Mg alloy (AA5052) processed by equal-channel angular pressing (ECAP) was investigated by electrochemical techniques in a solution containing 0.2 mol/L of $AlCl_3$ and also by surface analysis. The Al-Mg alloy was annealed at a fixed temperature between 473 and 573 K for 120 min in air after ECAP. Anodizing was conducted for 40 min at $100-400A/m^2$ at 293 K in a solution containing 1.53 mol/L of $H_2SO_4$ and 0.0185 mol/L of $Al_2(SO_4)_3$. The internal stress generated in anodic oxide films during anodization was measured with a strain gauge to clarify the effect of ECAP on the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized Al-Mg alloy. The time required to initiate the pitting corrosion of anodized Al-Mg alloy was shorter in samples subjected to ECAP, indicating that ECAP decreased the pitting corrosion resistance. However, the pitting corrosion resistance was greatly improved by annealing after ECAP. The time required to initiate pitting corrosion increased with increasing annealing temperature. The strain gauge attached to Al-Mg alloy revealed that the internal stress present in the anodic oxide films was compressive stress, and that the stress was larger with ECAP than without. The compressive internal stress gradually decreased with increasing annealing temperature. Scanning electron microscopy showed that cracks occurred in the anodic oxide film on Al-Mg alloy during initial corrosion and that the cracks were larger with ECAP than without. The ECAP process of severe plastic deformation produces large internal stresses in the Al-Mg alloy; the stresses remain in the anodic oxide films, increasingthe likelihood of cracks. It is assumed that the pitting corrosion is promoted by these cracks as a result of the higher internal stress resulting from ECAP. The improvement in the pitting corrosion resistance of anodized AlMg alloy as a result of annealing appears to be attributable to a decrease in the internal stresses in anodic oxide films

(Bi_1/2Na_1/2)TiO₃(BNT) piezoelectric ceramics are one of the promising materials that can replace Pb(Zr, Ti)O₃(PZT) piezoelectric ceramics due to the high electromechanical strain properties. However, it is still difficult to use practical applications because the required electric field for inducing electromechanical strain is relatively higher than that of PZT ceramics. To overcome this problem, it has been intensively studied on doping impurity or modifying other ABO₃ for BNT-based piezoelectric ceramics. Therefore, this study investigated the effects of La₂O₃ doping on the phase transition behavior and electromechanical strain properties in BNT-SrTiO₃ (BNT-ST) lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. In the case of the temperature-dependent dielectric properties, it was confirmed that a phase transition from ferroelectrics to relaxors is induced with increasing La₂O₃ content. As a result, the electromechanical strain properties of BNT-ST ceramics were improved. The highest S_max/E_max value corresponding to 300 pm/V was obtained at 2 mol% La₂O₃-dopped BNT-ST ceramics. Accordingly, this study successfully demonstrated that La₂O₃ doping is effective on the inducing phase transition from ferroelectrics to relaxors and the improving electromechanical strain properties of BNT-ST lead-free piezoelectric ceramics.

본 연구에서는 Photoconductor materials 기반의 평판형 X-ray Detector film 제작에 관한 연구를 수행하였다. 기존의 광도전성 물질로 사용되어 오던 비정질 셀레늄(Amorphous seleinum; a-Se) 기반의 디지털 방사선 검출기 보다 높은 신호 및 동작 특성을 가지는 Mercury Iodide(HgI2)와 열적, 전기적 특성이 안정적이며, 소자의 동작특성이 우수한 Lead Oxide(PbO) 기반의 X-ray Detector film의 개발에 있어서 각각 HgI2 및 PbO 두 물질 층을 적정비율에 맞추어 제작함으로써 최적의 X-ray Detector를 구현하고자 하였다. 이는 빠른 영상획득을 통해 기존의 방식이 가지는 문제점을 해결하고 의료기기 디지털화를 구현할 수 있는 차세대 시스템을 개발하고자 하는 것이다. 본 연구에서는 기존의 진공증착법의 두꺼운 대면적 필름의 제조가 어려운 문제점을 해결하고자 Particle In Binder method(PIB) 방법을 이용하여 $3"{\times}3"$사이즈의 두께 $200{\mu}m$의 다결정의 Photoconductor 필름을 제조하여 전기적 특성을 평가하였다. 제작된 필름의 전기적 특성을 dark current, X-선 sensitivity와 SNR(Signal to -Noise Rate) 등을 측정하여 정량적으로 평가 하였다. 기준 실험으로 진행한 DG 2.1 바인더를 사용한 single-HgI2 층에서 보다 높은 sensitivity 값을 보였지만 높은 dark current로 인해 SNR이 떨어지는 결과를 볼 수 있었다. 본 연구에서 제시하는 두 Photoconductor material의 Soaking method를 이용한 실험에서는 single-HgI2에 해당하는 높은 sensitivity 및 저감된 dark current로 인해 높은 SNR 값을 획득하였다. 하지만 습도와 같은 주변 환경에 의한 재현성 문제로 인한 신호값의 불안정성에 대한 문제점도 남아 있으므로, 차후 최적화된 material 제작 공정을 위한 연구가 꾸준히 진행 되어져야 할 것이다.

전자 부품에 인체에 유해한 납을 사용하지 않기 위해서 Sn을 주 원소로 한 무연 솔더 합금의 개발이 활발히 진행되고 있다. 무연 솔더 합금의 열역학적, 기계적 특성은 많이 연구되었으나 산화 거동에 대해서는 거의 연구가 되어있지 않다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 Sn 및 Sn-0.7Cu, Sn-3.5Ag, Sn-lZn, Sn-9Zn 합금에 대해 $150^{\circ}C$ 산화 거동을 연구하였다. 전기화학적 환원 분석을 통해 표면에 형성된 산화물의 종류와 양을 분석하여 합금 원소에 따른 산화 거동을 비교하였고 XPS 표면분석을 통하여 환원 실험 결과를 뒷받침하였다. 또한 합금 원소에 따른 산화물 성장 속도를 비교하였다. Sn-0.7Cu 와 Sn-3.5Ag의 경우 Sn의 산화와 비슷한 거동을 보였다. 산화 초기에는 SnO가 형성되고 산화가 진행됨에 따라 SnO 와 $SnO_2$가 같이 존재하되 $SnO_2$가 우세하게 성장하였다. Zn를 포함한 Sn 합금의 경우 ZnO와 $SnO_2$가 형성되었다. Zn의 첨가로 인해 $SnO_2$의 형성이 촉진되었고 SnO는 억제하는 것을 발견하였다.

분진 중에 함유된 Zn, Pb, Fe 등의 유가 금속을 회수하기 위해 폐타이어를 건류하여 만든 건류탄소를 환원제로 이용하여 재활용하고자 하였으며 또한 분진을 Pelletizing 하거나 Briquetting해서 환원 처리할 때, 공해 발생과 작업상의 단점을 보완하기 위하여 제지공장에서 발생하는 폐펄프와 분진 및 건류탄소를 소정의 비율로 혼합한 후 성형한 다음 통기도 및 압축강도실험 등을 한 결과 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 동일한 건류탄소 첨가량에서 결합제로 사용한 폐펄프의 첨가량이 증가할수록 통기도는 증가하며 이는 시편내 Porosiaty에 기인한 영향이라 생각되며, 동일 첨가량의 폐펄프에서 건류탄소의 첨가량이 증가할수록 통기도는 증가하는 경향을 보이며 압축강도는 건류탄소의 비율과 소결온도에 따라 증가 감소의 현상이 다소 상반되는 결과가 나타났다. 건류탄소 20%, 폐펄프 10%를 첨가하여 만든 Briguetting 시료를 X-선 회절분석 결과 $800^{\circ}C$에서는 ZnO와 $Fe_3$$O_4$가 조사되었으나 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이상에서는 ZnO와 $Fe_3$$O_4$를 확인할 수 없었다. $1000^{\circ}C$에서 소결실험을 한 결과 아연, 철산화물이 분해 증발하여 아연품위가 62%인 조산화아연물을 얻을 수 있었다.
