Abstract The stoichiometric and double-ordered perovskite $Sr_2FeMoO_6$ (SFMO) polycrystalline ceramics were fabricated by sintering at above $900^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$(5%)/Ar reductive ambient. SMO polycrystals showed good ferromagnetic properties andmagnetrotesistqnce ratios of about 15 % at 8K and 3 % at room temperature. Amorphous SFMO thin films were deposited on $LaA1O_3$ and $SrTiO_3$ single crystal substrates using rf sputtering method with the SFMO polycrystalline ceramic target. Double-ordered perovskite polycrystalline SFMO thin films were fabricated by solid state crystallization by annealing the deposited amorphous films at above $680^{\circ}C$ in $H_2$(5%)/Ar reductive ambient. SFMO thin films exhibited ferromagnetic behavior. Their magnetroresistance ratios, however, were only 0.3~0.5% at 8K and disappeared with increasing the measuring temperature. This was attributed to the absence of magnetic spin tunneling between grains due to the porous structure and non-stoichiometric composition of the deposited films.

Sequential extraction was carried out on twenty two subsamples of three ferromanganese crusts from three seamounts (Lemkein, Lomilik, and Litakpooki) near the Marshall Islands in the western Pacific. The extraction was designed to fractionate Fe-Mn crust forming elements into low defined groups: (1) exchangeable and carbornate, (2) Mn-oxide, (3) Fe-oxyhyd.oxide, and (4) residual fraction. X-ray diffraction result shows that target material were well removed by each extraction step except for CFA in phosphatized crusts generation. According to chemical analysis of each leachate, most of elements in the Fe-Mn crusts are bound with two major phases. Mn, Ba, Co, Ni, Zn, (Fe, Sr, Cu, and V) are strongly bounded with Mn-oxide $({\delta}-MnO_2)$ phase, whereas Fe, Ti, Zr, Mo, Pb, Al, Cu,(V, P, and Zn) show chemical affinity with Fe-oxyhydroxide phase. This result indicates that significant amount of Al, Ti, and Zr can not be explained by detrital origin. Ca, Mg, K, and Sr mainly occur as exchangeable elements and/or carbonate phase. Outermost layer 1 and inner layer 2 which are both young crusts generations are similar in chemical speciations of elements. However, some of Fe-oxyhydroxide bounded elements (Pb, Y, Mo, Ba, Al, and V) in phosphatized innermost layer 3 are released during phosphatization and incorporated into phosphate (Pb, Y, Mo, and Ba) or Mn-oxide phase (Al and V). Our sequential extraction results reveal that chemical speciations of elements in the hydrogenetic crusts are more or less different from interelemental relationship calculated by statistical method based on bulk chemistry.

The fabrication of Fe alloy-40 wt.%TiC composite materials using spark plasma sintering process after ball-milling was studied. Raw powders to fabricate Fe alloy-TiC composite were Fe alloy, $TiH_{2}$ and activated carbon. Fe alloy powder was Distaloy AE (4%Ni-1%Cu-0.5%Mo-0.01%C-bal.%Fe) made by Hoeganes company with better toughness and lower melting point. These powders were ball-milled in horizontal attrition ball mill at a ball-to-powder weight ratio of 30 : 1. After that, these mixture powders were sintered by using spark plasma sintering apparatus for 5 min at $1200-1275^{\circ}C$ in vacuum atmosphere under $10^{-3}$ torr. DistaloyAE-40 wt.%TiC composite was directly synthesized by dehydrogenation and carburization reaction during sintering process. The phase transformation of as-milled powders and sintered materials was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). The density and harness materials was measured in order to confirm the densification behavior. In case of DistaloyAE-40 wt.%TiC composite retained for 5 min at $1275^{\circ}C$, it has the relative density of about 96% through the influence of rapid densification and fine TiC particle reinforced Fe-based composites materials.

Titanium alloys and Titanium alloy-based particulate composites were synthesized using the blended elemental P/M route. First, processing conditions such as the fabrication of master alloy powder were investigated. Ti-6Al-4V, Ti-5Al-2.5Fe, Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo, IMI685, IMI829, Timetal 1100 and Timetal 62S, and Ti-6Al-2Sn-4Zr-2Mo/ 10%TiB and Timetal 62S/10%TiB were then synthesized using the optimal processing conditions obtained. The microstructures and mechanical properties such as tensile strength and high cycle fatigue strength were evaluated.

There has been a considerable attention on Invar alloys due to its low thermal expansion property. A low thermal expansion property of Invar alloys, lower than $10^{-6}$ near the room temperature, is attractive for electric transmission lines and precision machine tools. However, the expansion property of Invar alloys is limited below about 520K, and mechanical properties are relatively low to apply to electric transmission line. In order to improve mechanical properties in this alloy, Ti alloying element was added to the $Ni_{38}-Mo_2-Cr_1-Fe$ invar alloy. The microstructure Ti added alloy showed finer than that of the unalloyed one. It was found that the (Mo, Ti), Mo carbide formed by Ti addition obstacled grain growth by pinning effect and supplyed recrystallization sites during heat-treatment. Optimum heat-treatment conditions with Ti addition were also discussed in the modified Invar alloy.

MoS$_2$-Ti films were deposited on SKD-11 tool steel substrate by a D.C. magnetron sputtering system. The influence of deposition parameters on the adhesion of the films was investigated by the scratch test. Crosssection morphology was evaluated using FE-SEM. The plasma etching played an important role on the adhesion of the films. The appropriate etching conditions roughened the surface, resulting In the improved adhesion of the film. The adhesion of the film increased with the interlayer thickness up to 110 nm and then decreased slightly with further increasing of interlayer thickness. The adhesion was highest at a bias voltage of -50 V. Further increase of the bias voltage decreased the film adhesion.

Sputtering conditions and various underlayer such as Al, Cu, Ni, Cr, Ag, Mg, Fe, Co, Pd, Au, Pt, Mo and Hf were investigated for coercivity enhancement of 20 nm Ti/CoCrPt thin films in order to increase the coercivity of the films thinner than 20 nm. Among them, Ag and Mg were effective to increase the coercivity. Particularly 2 nm Ag was very effective to increase the coercivity and nucleation field as well as to reduce ${\alpha}$ value in CoCrPt thin film such that the coercivity of 2 nm Ag/18 nm Ti/10 nm CoCrPt film was 2200 Oe. However, it seemed that other coercivity enhancement mechanism operated in CoCrPt films because Ti (002) preferred texture was not developed with Ag underlayer contrary to a general expectation. And the coercivity and nucleation field were decreased when glass substrate with rougher surface was used.

The reaction cross-sections of $^{nat}$Ti(p,X)$^{48}$ V, $^{nat}$Fe(p,X)$^{56}$ Co, $^{nat}$Cu(p,X)$^{65}$ Zn and $^{nat}$Mo(p,X)$^{96}$ Tc for TLA application are calculated in the frame of the ECIS-GNASH code system up to 60 MeV. The calculated results are compared with the experimental data taken from the EXFOR at the NEA Data Bank. A preliminary calculation with the global optical parameters of Varner et al. shows considerable differences from the experimental data at low energy range. The global optical parameters for the imaginary volume potential and the diffuseness of the imaginary potential are adjusted to achieve a better description of the experimental data in the vicinities of peak position below 16 MeV. 16 MeV.

The low-cycle fatigue performance and fracture of the P/M Ti-Fe-Mo-Al-Nd Alloys after sintering and forging have been studied. The linear regression equation of low-cycle fatigue lifetime has been obtained; the fatigue performances are objected under two different conditions. The fatigue fracture surface is analyzed by SEM. The low-cycle fatigue behavior of the P/M titanium alloy has been discussed.
