the microstructure and mechanical properties of seeded and ball-milled dry gels prepared by boehmite sol-gel method were discussed. The densification of seeded gels was improved with increasing seed content namely the number of seed The number of seed was 1.09, 3.35, 5.72${\times}$1012/cm3 boehmite when seeded with 1, 3, 5wt% respectively The ball milled gel contained about 0.5wt% seed and the number of seed was 4.72${\times}$1012/cm3 boehmite. The sintered density of 5wt% seeded gel was below 80% when sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 1h. On the other hand that of ball milled gel was very improved and reached to 97% In the case of 3wt% seeded gels the density over 97% was attained when sintered at 1500$^{\circ}C$for 1h. and the grain of the sintered body was several micrometers in size. However the sintered body of ball milled gel showed grain size of submicrometer when sintered at 1300$^{\circ}C$ for 1h. And this specimen showed highest harness value of 1900kg/mm2 The fracture toughness increased with increasing sintering temperature. The sintered body of ball milled gel showed the largest grain size and the highest fracture toughness without regard to sint-ering temperature.

Submicron high-purity mullite powder was prepared by a colloidal sol-gel route. Boehmite and silica were the starting materials. 2wt% $\alpha$-Al2O3 or ZrO2 was used as a seeding material. The gelled powder was calcined at 130$0^{\circ}C$ for 100min and attrition milled for 3hrs. The mullite powder obtained was composed of submicrometer and uniform particles with a narrow size distribution. It was hot-pressed at 1$600^{\circ}C$ for 1hr under 10MPa or was sintered at 1$650^{\circ}C$ for 4hrs. The bulk densities of the products made by both processes were 3.14 and 3.12g/㎤. the mechanical, thermal and electrical properties of the sintered mullite were characterized by bending strength, thermal expansion coefficient, thermal conductivity, dielectric constant and dielectric loss, etc.

Fine mullite powder was prepared by colloidal sol-gel route. Boehmite as a starting material of Al2O3 and silica sol or fumed silica as a starting material of SiO2 were used. $\alpha$-Al2O3, TiO2 and ZrO2 were used as seeding materials. The combination of boehmite and silica was found to be the stoichiometric mullite powder. Techniques for drying used were spray drying, freeze drying, reduced pressure evaporation and drying in a oven. The gelled powder was heated at 130$0^{\circ}C$ for 100min and was attrition-milled for 1~3hrs. The mullite powder obtained was composed of submicrometer, uniform and spherical particles with a narrow size distribution. The mullite powder was characterized by BET, SEM, XRD and IR spectroscopy.

Tungsten carbide powder was synthesized by SHS (self-propagating high-temperature synthesis). Except $WO_{3}$, each concentration of raw material ($WO_{3},\;Mg,\;NaCl,\;Na_{2}CO_{3},\;C$) was investigated. Final product was characterized by XRD and SEM. X-ray data demonstrated that the $NaCl+Na_{2}CO_{3}$ combined mixture has superiority in the WC formation process. Single phase and submicrometer WC powder was synthesized at the temperature below $1600^{\circ}C$. The role of sodium salts in combustion process was discussed, and chemical mechanism of WC formation was proposed. WC powder prepared by salt-assisted combustion synthesis has a size $0.2{\sim}3\;{\mu}m$ and low agglomeration degree.

Recently, the analysis of microcutting with submicrometer depth of cut is tried to get a more high quality surface product, but to get a valuable result another method instead of conventional finite element method must be considered because finite elment method is impossible for a very small focused region and mesh size. As the altermative method, Molecular Dynamics or Statics is suggested and acceoted in the field of microcutting, indentation and crack propagation. In this paper using Molecuar Dynamics simulation, the phenomena of microcutting with subnanometer chip thickness is studied and the cutting mechanism for tool edge configuration is evaluated. As the result of simulation the atomistic chip formation is achieved.

The elaboration of fluorescent submicronic polymer particles exhibiting narrow particle size distribution as well as good photostability is of particular interest in various biomedical applications. In the frame of this work, labeled polystyrene latexes have been synthesized by miniemulsion polymerization using luminescent semiconductor nanoparticles (quantum dots, QD). The influence of incorporation of QDs on the polymerization kinetics as well as on the optical properties of the obtained latexes will be discussed.

Titanium (Ti) based alloys are widely used in biomedical implants due to their low density, excellent corrosion resistance and good biocompatibilities. In recent years, growing interest in sever plastic deformation (SPD) has stimulated research and development on the techniques to attain refining of the grain size to the submicrometer or even nanometer level. The mechanical and wear properties determining the application of Ti in medicine may be improved via SPD. High pressure torsion (HPT) technique is one of the approaches available for improving the mechanical and wear properties of biomedical Ti materials. Accordingly, this article is designed to examine most recent state of the art scientific works related to the developments in mechanical properties and wear resistance of biomedical Ti materials processed by HPT. A comprehensive review in this area is systematically presented.

Porous silicon materials have been shown to have bright prospects for applications in light emitting, solar cell, as well as light- and chemical-sensing devices. In this report, structures of porous silicon prepared by anodic etching in HF-based solution with various etching times were studied in detail by Atomic Force Microscopy and Small Angle X -ray Scattering technique using the high energy beam line at Pohang Light Source in Korea. The results showed the coexistence of the various pores with nanometer and submicrometer scales. For nanameter size pores, the mixed ones with two different shapes were identified: the larger ones in cylindrical shape and the smaller ones in spherical shape. Volume fractions of the cylindrical and the spherical pores were about equal and remained unchanged at all etching times investigated. On the whole uniform values of the specific surface area and of the size parameters of the pores were observed except for the larger specific surface area for the sample with the short etching time. The results implies that etching process causes the inner surfaces to become smoother while new pores are being generated. In all SAXS data at large Q vectors, Porod slope of -4 was observed, which supports the fact that the pores have smooth surfaces.

비정질 $Co_{70.5}Fe_{4.5}Si_{15}B_{10}$층을 갖는 자기터널접합(magnetic tunneling junctions; MTJ)를 연구하였다. 비정질 자유층이 MTJ의 스위칭 특성에 미치는 영향을 중점적으로 이해하기 위하여 기존의 사용된 CoFe 그리고 NiFe층들을 대신하여 비정질 강자성체 CoFeSiB을 사용하였다. CoFeSiB은 CoFe과 NiFe보다 각각 낮은 포화자기장($M_s:\;560\;emu/cm^3$)과 높은 자기이방성 상수($K_u:\;0.2800\;erg/cm^3$)를 갖는다. CoFeSiB층들의 사이에 1.0 nm Ru층 삽입시 $-0.003\;erg/cm^3$ 교환결합에너지($J_{ex}$)를 나타내었다. $Si-SiO_2-Ta$ 45/Ru 9.5/IrMn 10/CoFe 7/$AlO_x$/CoFeSiB 7 또는 CoFeSiB (t)/Ru 1.0/CoFeSiB (7-t)/Ru 60(in nm) MTJ 구조의 터널접합에 대하여 실험 및 시뮬레이션 결과를 통하여 낮은 $J_{ex}$에 기인하는 스위칭 자기장(switching field; $H_{sw}$)의 시료 크기 의존성이 나타나는 것을 알 수 있었다. CoFeSiB 합성형 반강자성 구조는 micrometer뿐만 아니라 submicrometer 시료 크기영역에서도 보자력($H_c$)의 감소와 민감도를 증가 시킴으로써 자기 스위칭 특성에 유리한 것으로 확인 되었다.
