Indium tin oxide(ITO) thin film was deposited at room temperature on polycarbonate(PC) substrate by in-line sputter system. ITO sputtering process was carried out at a various pressure for the reduction of ion damage on PC substrate and the electrical and the optical properties of deposited ITO films were obtained and analyzed. From the experimental results, the sheet resistances of as-deposited ITO films varied with a different pressure and the optical transmittances at visible wavelength were maintained above 85%. The results are considered to be related to the pressure of oxygen atoms as a reaction gas.

Piezoresistive pressure sensors have fabricated using electrochemical etch-stop technique. Si diaphragm having thickness of n-epi. layer was fabricated and used to detect pressure range from 0 to 1 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$. Piezoresistors were diffused 3${\times}$10$\^$18/ cm$\^$-3/ and placed at diaphragm edge for maximum pressure detection. The characteristics of electrochemical etch-stop in TMAH/lPA/pyrazine solution were also discussed. I-V curves of n and p-type Si in TMAH/lPA/pyrazine solution were obtained. Etching rate is highest at optimum etching condition, TMAH 25wt.%/IPA 17vo1.%/pyrazine 0.1/100m1, thus the elapsed time of etch-stop was reduced.

Mechanical behavior of a fuel stack was studied using an orthotropic material model. The fuel stack is essentially composed of a bipolar plate (BP), a gasket, an end plate, a membrane electrolyte assembly (MEA), and a gas diffusion layer (GDL). Each component is fastened with a suitable pressure. It is important to maintain a suitable contact pressure distribution of BP, because it influences the power efficiency of the fuel cell stack. When it is exposed to high temperature, its behavior must be stable. Hence, we performed stress analysis at high temperature as well as at room temperature. At high temperature, the contact pressure distribution becomes poor. Many patents have shown that using an elastomer can overcome this phenomena. Its effect was also studied. By using an elastomer, we found a good contact pressure distribution at high temperature as well as at room temperature.

A comparative assessment study for a generation of the pressure-temperature (P-T) limit curve of a reactor vessel is performed in accordance with ASME code. Using cooling or heating rate and vessel material properties, stress distribution is obtained to calculate stress intensity factors, which are compared with the material fracture toughness to determine the relations between operating pressure and temperature during reactor cool-down and heat-up. P-T limit curves are analyzed with respect to defect orientation, clad thickness, toughness curve, cooling or heating rate and neutron fluence. The resulting P-T curves are compared each other.

This paper presents the characteristics of metal thin-film pressure sensors. The micro pressure sensors consists of a chrom thin-film, patterned on a Wheatstone bridge configuration, sputter-deposited onto thermally oxidized Si wafer an aluminium interconnection layer. The fabricated micro pressure sensors shows a low temperature coefficient of resistance, high-sensitivity, low non-linearity and excellent temperature stability. The sensitivity is 1.16~1.21 mV/V.kgf/$\textrm{cm}^2$ in the temperature range of 25~l0$0^{\circ}C$ and the maximum non-linearity is 0.21 %FS.

The NdBaCuO superconductor samples were Zone-melted in low oxygen partial pressure (1% O$_2$+99% Ar). The Zone-melting temperature was decreased about 120$^{\circ}C$ from 1060$^{\circ}C$ the zone-melting temperature in air. Thus the loss of liquid phase (BaCuO$_2$ and CuO) was reduced during the zone-melting process. The content of non-superconducting phase Nd422 in zone-melted NdBaCuO samples was clearly decreased, so was the substitution of Nd for Ba. The superconductivity of zone-melted Nd$\sub$1+x/Ba$\sub$2-x/Cu$_3$O$\sub$y/ prepared under low oxygen partial pressure was distinctively improved.

P-type (100) Si wafer patterned with 1000$\AA$ SiO$_2$island was used as substrate and the Si films were deposited under low pressure using Si$_2$H$_{6}$-H$_2$gas mixture where the total gas flow rate and deposition pressure were 16.6sccm and 3.5mtorr, respectively. In this condition, we selectively obtained high-quality epitaxial Si layer of the 350~1050$\AA$ thickness. In order to extend the incubation period, we kept high pressure H$_2$ environment without Si$_2$H$_{6}$ gas for few minutes after first incubation period and then we conformed the existence of second incubation period.iod.

This paper is to be researched into ozone generation character of Bi-Ti-Si type high dielectric yield ceramic catalyst discharge tube. And conditions of basic experiment are the outside diameter of discharge tube : 52 mm, the length of discharge tube : 350 mm, the frequence : 900 Hz, the temperature of cooling water : 25 $^{\circ}C$, quantity of flow : 5, 10, 20 l/min, pressure : 1.2, 1.4, 1.6 atm, and distance of discharge gap : 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 mm. Ozone generation characteristics were measured to consumption power. At quantity of flow : 20 l/min, discharge gap : 0.6 mm, pressure : 1.6, and consumption power : 150 W, Maximum ozone generation efficiency of 175 g/kWh was obtained. Maximum ozone generation efficiency was measured below the flow quantity of 20 l/min at below pressure of 1.6 atm. However, Maximum ozone generation efficiency was measured over the flow quantity of 20 l/min at over pressure of 1.6 atm.

The acoustic characteristics radiated from the acoustic transducer with metal-piezoceramic laminated circular plate were simulated. The Vibrational modes of metal-piezoceramic laminated circular plates were calculated by using the finite element method. After meshing the inside closed boundary of the acoustic transducer, the pressure gradients and the isotaric lines were calculated for the various frequencies. It has been observed that the characteristics of the sound pressure calculated for the various frequencies. Also, the directivity patterns and the sound pressure radiated from the acoustic transducer were calculated by 2-dimensional analysis.

The fine $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ powder ($0.2{\sim}1.0\;{\mu}m$) is produced by sol-gel method, and electrophoresis deposition is used for the preparation of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ thick films which are deposited on Ag wire. The oriented $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ was tried to be prepared by the zone-melting method under low oxygen partial pressure. The orientation and the phase composition were examined by the X-ray diffraction and the superconductivities were measured by 4 line method. The critical current densities are still quite low, which may be due to unsuitable technical parameters for zone-melting of $YBa_2Cu_3O_x$ thick films. Therefore the heat treatment condition and controlling of low oxygen partial pressure should be improved in the future experiment.
