Carbon materials are mainly used as catalyst supports for polymer exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). Catalyst supports are required specific characteristics of the carbon materials, such as large surface area and high electrical conductivity. Attempted were to improve electrical conductivity and to maintain high surface area of carbon materials using a microwave treatment. Microwave treatment, as a relatively new technique, takes short reaction time and reduce the consumption of the gases used for carbon treatment compared to a traditional heat treatment. Hybrid carbon (ACF/Graphene) as catalyst supports by microwave-irradiation method for PEMFC increase the cell performance because of increased electrical conductivity resulting in triple-phase contact and reduced the interfacial resistance. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) were employed to analyze carbon materials. The performance of microwave-treated carbon materials was evaluated by measuring current-voltage (I-V) characteristics and electrode impedance.

The various sintered samples comprising of 72 wt% (Al₂O₃) : 28 wt% (SiO₂) based ceramics were fabricated using a colloidal processing route. The phase analysis of the ceramics was performed using an X-ray diffractometer (XRD) at room temperature confirming the presence of Al₂O₅Si and Al_5.33Si_0.67O_9.33. The surface morphology of the fracture surface of the different sintered samples having different sizes of grain distribution. The resistive and capacitive properties of the three different sintered samples at frequency sweep (1 kHz to 1 MHz). The contribution of grain and the non-Debye relaxation process is seen for various sintered samples in the Nyquist plot. The ferroelectric loop of the various sintered sample shows a slim shape giving rise to low remnant polarization. The excitation performance of the sample at a constant electric signal has been examined utilizing a designed electrical circuit. The above result suggests that the prepared lead-free ceramic can act as a base for designing of dielectric capacitors or resonators.

Effects of deposition parameter on the ionic conductivity and structural change of the Lithium borosili-cate solid electrolyte films, prepared by rf sputtering using 7$LI_2O-3B_2O_3-1SiO_2$ single phase target and also a mosaic target enriched with $LI_2O$, were analyzed by measuring AC impedance and IR absorption spectra for the films. Thed solid electrolyte film deposited from the single phase target exhibited very low ionic conductivi-ty of $10^{-10}{\Omega}^{-1}cm{-1}$ at room temperature, a result of low $Li^+$ ion content(7.52 at%) in the film. The $Li^+$ con-ductivity for the films deposited from the mosaic target, however, significantly increased to $10^{-7}{\Omega}^{-1}cm{-1}$ due to both an increased $Li^+$content (14.75 at %) and a structural change of the films. The increased ionic conduc-tivity of the film appears to be associated with an easiness of ionic mobility by structural change of glassy film from a some close packed network structure to a open one. These structural changes of film were found to be closely related to the increase in the peak intensity at~$960cm^{-1}$ of IR absorption spectra for the glassy films. With increasing either argon pressure from 3 to 21 mtorr or rf power from 2 to 3 W/$cm^2$, the $Li^+$ conduc-tivity for the films significantly increased to an order of $10^{-6}{\Omega}^{-1}cm{-1}$ due to an increase in openness of film structure, as confirmed by both an increase in the IR absorption peak intensity at ~$960cm^{-1}$ and a resultant reduction of activation energy for mobility of $Li^+$ ion.

Novel silane grafted bentonite was obtained using the natural bentonite as precursor material. The material which is termed as nanocomposite was characterized by the Fourier Transform Infra-red (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) methods. The surface imaging and elemental mapping was performed using Scanning Electron Microscopic (SEM/EDX) technique. The electroanalytical studies were performed using the nanocomposite electrode. The electroactive surface area of nanocomposite electrode was significantly increased than the pristine bentonite or bare carbon paste based working electrode. The impedance spectroscopic studies were conducted to simulate the equivalent circuit and Nyquist plots were drawn for the carbon paste electrode and nanocomposite electrodes. A single step oxidation/reduction process occurred for As(III) having ΔE value 0.36 V at pH 2.0. The anodic stripping voltammetry was performed for concentration dependence studies of As(III) (0.5 to 20.0 ㎍/L) and reasonably a good linear relationship was obtained. The detection limit of the As(III) detection was calculated as 0.00360±0.00002 ㎍/L having with observed relative standard deviations (RSD) less than 4%. The presence of several cations and anions has not affected the detection of As(III) however, the presence of Cu(II) and Mn(II) affected the detection of As(III). The selectivity of As(III) was achieved using the Tlawng river water sample spiked with As(III).

The feasibility of using stress-wave technique in the transverse direction for the assessment of early stages of decay was investigated using compression test specimens having different annual ring orientations subjected to decay by Tyromyces palustris for various time intervals. Decay detection, quantitative assessment of decay, and the prediction of residual strength of decayed wood with less than five percent weight loss can be feasible using stress-wave parameters (wave velocity, wave impedance, and stress-wave elasticity) and their percent reduction due to decay, measured by stress-wave technique in the transverse direction. The use of stress-wave technique in the transverse direction for the application of this technique to structural members in service is desirable, when considering the easiness of attachment of accelerometers of stress-wave measuring device on the surface of members and also accurate detection of localized decayed areas. In stress-wave technique in the transverse direction, stress-wave parameters measured were different according to the angles between wave propagation path and annual ring, due to the anisotropy of wood structure. Therefore, it is recommended to use percent reduction in stress-wave parameters instead of stress-wave parameters. This evaluation method using percent reduction in stress-wave parameters is ideal when it is impossible to observe annual ring orientation on the transverse surface of wood.

Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) have recently been developed as a cost-effective photovoltaic system due to their low-cost materials and facile processing. The production of DSSC involves chemical and thermal processes but no vacuum is involved. Therefore, DSSC can be fabricated without using expensive equipment. The use of dyes and nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ is one of the most promising approaches to realize both high performance and low cost. The efficiency of the DSSC changes consequently in the particle size, morphology, crystallization and surface state of the $TiO_2$. Nanocrystalline $TiO_2$ materials have been widely used as a photo catalyst and an electron collector in DSSC. Front electrode in DSSC are required to have an extremely high porosity and surface area such that the dyes can be sufficiently adsorbed and be electronically interconnected, resulting in the efficient generation of photocurrent within cells. In this study, DSSC were fabricated by an screen printing for the $TiO_2$ thin film. $TiO_2$ nanoparticles characterized by X-ray diffractometer (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) and scanning auger microscopy (SAM) and zeta potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS).In addition, DSSC module was modeled and simulated using the SILVACO TCAD software program. Improve the efficiency of DSSC, the effect of $TiO_2$ thin film thickness and $TiO_2$ nanoparticle size was investigated by SILVACO TCAD software program.

지층 속에 남아 있는 퇴적구조는 퇴적환경을 추정하는 중요한 지표가 된다. 암상이나 화석과는 달리 퇴적구조는 퇴적 현장에서 형성되고 외부로부터 전입될 수는 없기 때문이다. 퇴적구조는 기존 암석이나 퇴적층이 잘 노출되어 있는 노두에서는 쉽사리 연구될 수 있으나 지표면하에 존재하는 퇴적층 구조는 직접적인 방법으로서는 시추에 의해서만 연구될 수 있다. 그러나 지하층을 시추하기에는 시간적 경제적으로 많은 부담이 따르기 때문에 개략조사의 단계에서는 바람직하지 못하다. 탄성파 탐사 방법이 발전됨에 따라 비교적 장파장을 사용하여 얕은 지하층을 탐사할 때 대체적인 지층구조를 파악할 수가 있게 되었다. 이는 각 퇴적층이 Acoustic Impedance를 달리하기 때문에 나타나는 결과이다. 분해능이 50cm정도의 탄성파를 이용한 탄성파 탐사에서 얻어진 탄성파 반사 기록은 이 분해능 범위보다 큰 규모의 해저지층구조를 어느 정도 잘 반영해 준다.
