${\beta}$-Silicon carbide(${\beta}$-SiC) whiskers could be synthesized by the carbothermal reduction of kaolin at tem-peratures between 1400 and 1500$^{\circ}C$. The whiskers were grown up to about 1150 of aspect ratio by VS mechanism (showing tapering tips) and to about 45 of that by VLS mechanism (showing round droplet tips) respectively. Hydrocarbon like methane in the reaction atmosphere promoted the formation of gaseous il-icon monoxide(SiO) from silicon dioxide(SiO2) and subsequently reacted with it to form whiskers. The for-mation of ${\beta}$-SiC whiskers increased with increasing carbon content(to 30 wt%) and reaction temperatures. The max. yield of ${\beta}$-SiC whiskers was 15% at 1500$^{\circ}C$ under 20%CH4/80%H2.

The electrochemical performances of anode composites comprising elemental silicon (Si), silicon monoxide (SiO), and graphite (C) were investigated. The composite devoid of elemental silicon (SiO:C = 1:1) and its carbon coated composite showed reduced capacity degradation with measured values of 606 and 584 mAh/g at the fiftieth cycle. The capacity retention nature when the composites were cycled followed the order of Si:SiO:C = 3:1:4 < Si:SiO:C = 2:2:4 < SiO:C = 1:1 < SiO:C = 1:1 (carbon coated). A comparison of the capacity retention properties for the composites in terms of the silicon content showed that a reduced silicon content increased the stability of the composite electrodes. Even though the carbon-coated composite delivered low capacity during cycling compared to the other composites, its low capacity degradation made the anode a better choice for lithium ion batteries.

A carbon monoxide gas sensor utilizing Pt-SiC, Pt-SnO2-SiC diode structure was fabricated. Since the operating temperature for silicon devices in limited to 200oC, sensor which employ the silicon substrate can not at high temperature. In this study, CO gas sensor operating at high temperature which utilize SiC semiconductor as a substrate was developed. Since the SiC is the semiconductor with wide band gap. the sensor at above $700^{\circ}C$. Carbon monoxide-sensing behavior of Pt-SiC, Pt-SnO2-SiC diode is systematically compared and analyzed as a function of carbon monoxide concentration and temperature by I-V and ${\Delta}$I-t method under steady-state and transient conditions.

우수한 수명특성을 지니는 흑연과 높은 용량을 지니고 있는 실리콘 일산화물의 혼합전극을 제조하여 리튬이온 이차전지용 음극으로 적용하여 이의 사이클 성능에 대하여 평가하였다. 천연흑연과 실리콘 일산화물을 9:1의 질량비로 혼합하여 제조한 전극은 $480mAh\;g^{-1}$의 가역용량으로 천연흑연에 비하여 33% 이상의 높은 용량을 나타내었다. 그러나, 실리콘 일산화물의 부피변화로 인하여 용량의 퇴화가 지속적으로 발생하였다. 본 연구에서는 전극 및 전해질의 구성에 변수들을 적용하여 각각의 변수가 영향을 주는 전기화학적 특성을 파악하고 이를 통하여 사이클 수명을 향상시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색하고자 하였다. 전극 제조 시에 poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVdF) 바인더에 비하여 carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) 바인더는 가장 우수한 사이클 특성을 나타내었으며, CMC와 styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR)을 함께 사용하는 SBR/CMC 바인더의 경우에는 CMC 단독 바인더를 사용하는 경우와 유사한 사이클 특성과 동시에 속도특성에서 장점을 지니고 있었다. 전해액 첨가제로 fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC)를 적용하는 경우에 수명특성이 크게 개선되었다. FEC의 함량이 10 질량%로 높아지게 되면 전지의 속도특성이 저하되기 때문에 5 질량%의 사용이 적절하였다. 또한 전극의 로딩값을 낮추게 되면 사이클 특성을 크게 향상시킬 수 있었으며, 집전체를 사포로 연마하여 거칠기를 증가시키는 것도 사이클 특성의 개선을 가져올 수 있었다.

The composite of porous silicon (Si) and amorphous carbon (C) is prepared by pyrolysis of a nano-porous Si + pitch mixture. The nano-porous Si is prepared by mechanical milling of magnesium powder with silicon monoxide (SiO) followed by removal of MgO with hydrochloric acid (etching process). The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) surface area of porous Si ($64.52m^2g^{-1}$) is much higher than that before etching Si/MgO ($4.28m^2g^{-1}$) which indicates pores are formed in Si after the etching process. Cycling stability is examined for the nano-porous Si + C composite and the result is compared with the composite of nonporous Si + C. The capacity retention of the former composite is 59.6% after 50 charge/discharge cycles while the latter shows only 28.0%. The pores of Si formed after the etching process is believed to accommodate large volumetric change of Si during charging and discharging process.

Carbon fiber was reacted with gaseous silicon monoxide which is produced from pack-powder mixture at elevated temperature. As a result of the reaction, two kinds of SiC fiber were obtained. The first one was SiC fibers which were converted from carbon fiber. The fiber is constituted with polycrystal like fine grains or monolithic crystals that have a size from sub-micron to $10\;{\mu}m$. Their size depends on the temperature during the conversion reaction. The second one was ultra-fine SiC fibers that were found on the surface of the converted SiC fibers. The ultra-fine fibers have diameters from 0.08 to $0.2\;{\mu}m$ and their aspect ratio were larger than 100. The chemical composit ion of the ultra-fine fibers was analyzed using an Auger electron spectroscopy. In result, the fibers consist of 51% silicon, 38% carbon and 11% oxygen by weight.

Porous carbon fiber composites (CFCs) having variable specific surface area ranging 35~1150 $\m^2$/g were reacted to produce silicon carbide fiber composites with SiO vapor generated from a mixture of Si and $SiO_2$ at 1673 K for 2 h under vacuum. Part of SiO vapor generated during conversion process condensed on to the converted fiber surface as amorphous silica. Chemical analysis of the converted CFCs resulting from reaction showed that the products contained 27~90% silicon carbide, 7~18% amorphous silica and 3~63% unreacted carbon, and the composition depended on the specific carbide, 7~18% amorphous silica and 3~63% unreacted carbon, and the composition depended on the specific surface area of CFCs. CFC of higher specific surface area yielded higher degree of conversion of carbon to silicon and conversion products of lower mechanical strength due to occurrence of cracks in the converted caron fiber. As the conversion of carbon to silicon carbide proceeded, pore size of converted CFCs increased as a result of growth of silicon carbide crystallites, which is also linked to the crack formation in the converted fiber.

피부는 방사선에 대한 민감도가 높기 때문에 방사선치료 시에 피부에 조사되는 선량을 정확하게 측정하여 과도한 피폭을 방지할 필요가 있다. 임상에서는 film, OSLD, TLD, glass 선량계등과 같은 선량계를 사용하여 피부선량을 측정하고 있지만, 이러한 선량계들은 피부곡면에서의 정확한 선량측정이 힘든 문제점이 있다. 본 논문에서는 이러한 문제를 해결하고자 인체 굴곡에 따라서 부착이 가능한 피부선량계를 개발하고 그 반응 특성을 평가하였다. 선량계 제작에는 높은 원자번호(Z_Pb: 82, Z_O: 8)와 밀도(9.53 g/cm³)로 방사선검출 측점에서 우수한 특성을 가지고 있는 Lead oxide(PbO)와 인체 굴곡에 따라 휘어질 수 있는 silicon 바인더를 사용하여 재조하였다. 한편 PbO 물질로 제작된 선량계의 경우 산화로 인한 성능 저하가 존재하기 때문에 parylene 등을 사용하여 성능저하를 방지해오고 있었지만, 기존에 사용된 parylene은 bending에 대한 영향을 받기 때문에 silicon을 이용한 새로운 형태의 passive layer를 제작하여 피부선량계에 적용하였다. 피부선량계의 특성평가는 SEM, 재현성, 선형성을 분석하여 평가하였다. SEM 분석을 통하여 bending에 영향을 받는지 평가하였으며, 6 MeV 에너지에서의 재현성, 선형성을 평가하여 피부선량계로 적용이 가능한지 평가하였다. SEM 분석을 통하여 선량계 표면을 관찰한 결과, parylene으로 passive layer가 올라간 parylene passive layer PbO 선량계는 구부러 졌을때, 표면에 crack이 발생하였다. 그에 반해 silicon passive layer가 올라간 silicon passive layer PbO 선량계에서는 crack 이 관찰되지 않았다. 재현성 측정 결과에서 silicon passive layer PbO 선량계의 RSD는 1.47%로 평가기준 RSD 1.5%를 만족하였으며, 선형성 평가 결과에서는 R²값이 0.9998로 나타나 평가기준 R² 0.9990을 만족하였다. silicon passive layer PbO 선량계는 bending에 따른 crack이 발생하지 않으며, 재현성, 선형성에서 높은 신호안정성과 정밀성, 정확성을 보여주어 피부선량계로의 적용이 가능한 것으로 평가되었다.

The application of Carbon and graphite based materials in unprotected environment is limited to a temperature of $450^{\circ}C$ or so because of their susceptibility to oxidation at this temperature and higher. To over come these obstacles a low cost chemical vapour reaction process (CVR) was developed to give crystalline and high purity SiC coating on graphite and isotropic C/C composite. CVR is most effective carbothermal reduction method for conversation of a few micron of carbon layer to SiC. In the CVR method, a sic conversation layer is formed by reaction between carbon and gaseous reagent silicon monoxide at high temperature. Characterization of SiC coating was carried out using SEM. The other properties studied were hardness density and conversion efficiency.
