Silicon nitride thin films are deposited by RF (13.57 MHz) magnetron sputtering process using a Si (99.999 %) target and with different ratios of Ar/N₂ sputtering gas mixture. Corning G type glass is used as substrate. The vacuum atmosphere, RF source power, deposit time and temperature of substrate of the sputtering process are maintained consistently at 2 ~ 3 × 10^-3 torr, 30 sccm, 100 watt, 20 min. and room temperature, respectively. Cross sectional views and surface morphology of the deposited thin films are observed by field emission scanning electron microscope, atomic force microscope and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The hardness values are determined by nano-indentation measurement. The thickness of the deposited films is approximately within the range of 88 nm ~ 200 nm. As the amount of N₂ gas in the Ar:N₂ gas mixture increases, the thickness of the films decreases. AFM observation reveals that film deposited at high Ar:N₂ gas ratio and large amount of N₂ gas has a very irregular surface morphology, even though it has a low RMS value. The hardness value of the deposited films made with ratio of Ar:N₂=9:1 display the highest value. The XPS spectrum indicates that the deposited film is assigned to non-stoichiometric silicon nitride and the transmittance of the glass with deposited SiO₂-Si_xN_y thin film is satisfactory at 97 %.

AMTEC기술은 열을 직접 전기로 변환시키는 기술로서 소디움을 작동유체로 사용하고 있으며, 작동유체의 순환은 모세관윅을 사용한다. 순환계통에는 증발부윅, 순환윅 및 응축부윅으로 구성되고, 각각의 윅은 소디움의 액체 또는 증기가 순환하면서 압력손실이 발생하므로 소디움의 순환을 위해서는 증발부윅의 모세관압력이 윅내의 총압력손실보다 커야만 한다. 본 연구에서는 100 watt급의 AMTEC시제품설계을 위해 소디움의 순환계통으로 구성되는 증발부윅, 순환윅 및 응축부윅에서의 압력손실과 증발부에서 응축부로의 열손실을 순환윅의 직경과 길이에 대해 분석하여 증발부윅의 소결입자 직경과 순환윅의 설계에 활용하코저 하였으며, 분석결과에서 순환계통의 총압력손실보다 큰 모세관압력을 위해서는 증발부윅의 소결입자크기는 10 ${\mu}m$이 적합한 결과를 얻었다.

Die steel for plastic molding were used as mold material of automobile parts and electronic component industry. The material of this paper has superior to mechanical properties, such as repair weldability, corrosion resistance and high temperature strength, required mold parts for semitransparent. Laser-induced surface hardening technology is widely adopted to improver fatigue life and wear resistance via localized hardening at the surface of mold parts. The objective of this research work is to investigate on the characteristics of surface hardening of the laser process parameters, such as beam travel speed, laser power and defocsued spot position, for the case of die steel for plastic molding. Lens for surface hardening of large area is plano-convex type with elliptical profile to maintain uniform laser irradiation. According to the experimental results, large size of hardened layer at the surface of die steel for plastic molding was achieved, and microstructure of this layer was lath martensite. Optimal surface status and mechanical property of hardened layer could be obtained at 1095Watt, $0.25{\sim}0.3m/min$, 0mm (focal length: 232mm) for laser power, beam travel speed, and focal position. Where, heat input was $0.793{\times}10^{3}J/cm^2$, and width of hardened layer was 27.58mm.

Epoxy-coated reinforcing bars are widely used to protect the corrosion of the reinforcing bars in the RC elements under their in-service environments and external loads. In most field surveys, it was reported that the corrosion resistance of the epoxy-coated reinforcing bars is typically better than the uncoated bars. However, from the experimental tests conducted in the labs, it was reported that, under the same loads, the RC elements with epoxy-coated reinforcing bars had wider cracks than the elements reinforced with the ordinary bars. Although this conclusion may be true considering the bond reduction of the reinforcing bar due to the epoxy coating, the maximum service loads used in the experimental research may be a main reason. To answer these two phenomena, service performance of 15 RC beam specimens with uncoated and epoxy-coated reinforcements under different fatigue loads was experimentally studied. Influences of different coating thicknesses of the reinforcing bars, the fatigue load range and load upper limit as well as fatigue load cycles on the mechanical performance of RC test specimens are discussed. It is concluded that, for the test specimens subjected to the comparatively lower load range and load upper limit, adverse effect on the service performance of test specimens with thicker epoxy-coated reinforcing bars is negligible. With the increments of the coating thickness and the in-service loading level, i.e., fatigue load range, load upper limit and fatigue cycles, the adverse factor resulting from the thicker coating becomes noticeable.

GaN과 같은 III-nitride 반도체 관한 식각 기술의 연구는 blue-emitting laser diode(LD)를 위한 경면(mirror facet)의 형성뿐만아니라 새로운 display 용도의 light emitting diodes (LED), 고온에서 작동되는 광전소자 제조 등에도 그 중요성이 증대되고 있다. 최근에는 III-nitride 물질의 높은 식각속도와 미려하고 수직한 식각형상을 이루기 위하여 ECR(Electron Cyclotron Resonance)이나 ICP(Inductively Coupled Plasma)와 같은 고밀도 플라즈마 식각과 CAIBE(Chemically assisted ion beam etching)를 이용한 연구가 진행되고 있다. 현재 제조되어 지고 있는 LED 및 LD와 같은 광소자의 구조의 대부분은 p-GaN/AlGaN/InGaN(Q.W)/AlGaN/n-GaN 와 같은 여러 층의 형태로 이루어져 있다. 이중 InGaN는 광소자나 전자소자의 특성에 영향을 주는 가장 중요한 부분으로써 현재까지 보고된 식각연구는 undoped GaN에 대부분 집중되고 있고 이에 비해 소자 특성에 핵심을 이루는 InGaN의 식각특성에 관한 연구는 미흡한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 고밀도 플라즈마원인 ICP 장비를 이용하여 InGaN를 식각하였고, 식각에는 Cl2/CH4, Cl2/Ar 플라즈마를 사용하였다. InGaN의 식각특성에 영향을 미치는 플라즈마의 특성을 관찰하기 위하여 quadrupole mass spectrometry(QMS)와 optical emission spectroscopy(PES)를 사용하였다. 기판 온도는 5$0^{\circ}C$, 공정 압력은 5,Torr에서 30mTorr로 변화시켰고 inductive power는 200~800watt, bias voltage는 0~-200voltage로 변화시켰으며 식각마스크로는 SiO2를 patterning 하여 사용하였다. n-GaN, p-GaN 층 이외에 광소자 제조시 필수적인 InGaN 층을 100% Cl2로 식각한 경우에 InGaN의 식각속도가 GaN에 비해 매우 낮은 식각속도를 보였다. Cl2 gas에 소량의 CH4나 Ar gas를 첨가하는 경우와 공정압력을 감소시키는 경우 식각속도는 증가하였고, Cl2/10%Ar 플라즈마에서 공정 압력을 감소시키는 경우 식각속도는 증가하였고, Cl2/10%CHF3 와 Cl2/10%Ar 플라즈마에서 공정압력을 15mTorr로 감소시키는 경우 InGaN과 GaNrks의 선택적인 식각이 가능하였다. InGaN의 식각속도는 Cl2/Ar 플라즈마의 이온에 의한 Cl2/CHF3(CH4) 플라즈마에서의 CHx radical 형성에 의하여 증가하는 것으로 사료되어 진다.

Effective glass frit compositions enabled to absorb laser energy, and to seal a commercial dye-sensitized solar-cell-panel substrate were developed by using $V_2O_5$-based glasses with various amounts of $TeO_2$ substitution. The latter was intended to increase the lifetime of the solar cells. Substitution of $V_2O_5$ by $TeO_2$ provided a strong network structure for the glasses via the formation of tetrahedral pyramids in the glass, and changed the various glass properties, such as glass transition temperature ($T_g$), dilatometric softening point ($T_d$), crystallization temperature, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), and glass flowage without any detrimental effect on the laser absorption property of the glasses. The thermal expansion mismatch (${\Delta}{\alpha}$) between the glass frit and the substrate could be controlled within less than ${\pm}5%$ by addition of 10 wt% of ${\beta}$-eucryptite. An 810 nm diode laser was used for the sealing test. The laser sealing test revealed that the VZBT20 glass frit with 10 wt% ${\beta}$-eucryptite was successfully sealed the substrates without interfacial cracks and pores. The optimum sealing conditions were provided by a beam size of 3 mm, laser power of 40 watt, scan speed of 300 mm/s, and 200 irradiation cycles.

In the B-ISDN using satellite between geo-satellites and earth stations, the laser having high security and broad band width has to be used as a carrier for transmitting massive information of visual, vocal, and high rate data. In this paper, by computer simulation we analyzed the number of optical detector array of optical satellite communication downlink in case of using channel coding and no channel coding for BISDN between geo-satelites and earth stations under clear weather condition. It was supposed that 1 watt semiconductor laser was used and as modulation method, the binary FSK was used. The data rate of 10Gbps was used for B-ISDN. Also, hardly affected by atmospheric absorption 1.55$\mu$m wave-length was used to reduce influence of dispersion and chirp generated at a high speed transmission. We analyzed the received power, SNR and BER. The number of optical detector array was determined to satisfy for the BER less than 10$^{-7}$. Also, we ananlyzed the possibility of reducting the number of optical detector array in case of using channel coding. the number of optical detector array is one in the region where the elevation nangle is between 38$^{\circ}$ and 90$^{\circ}$ and two where the elevation angle is between 33$^{\circ}$ and 37$^{\circ}$ and three where the elevation angle is between 30$^{\circ}$ and 32$^{\circ}$ and increases per one as the elevation angle decreases per 1.deg.. So in the region where the elevation angle is 25$^{\circ}$, the number of optical detector arrays is eight. In case of using channel coding, the number of optical detector arrays decreases to five in the region where the elevation angle is 25$^{\circ}$. Therefore, we remaark the advantage of the channelcoding to decrease the size of received antenna and the number ob optical detector arrays.

The effects of dark-control (D) and continuous green light (GL) exposure of incubated meat-type breeder eggs (Hybro) on embryonic growth from 5 to 15 days of age, hatching time, hatchability per cent and chick hatching weight were investigated in three consecutive experiments at 33, 38, and 41 weeks of age. A total of 798 eggs were used in this study. Eggs were set in an incubator on trays either in the D or under two tubes of 20-watt green fluorescent light during the first 18 days of incubation. Eggs from both treatments were transferred to the dark hatching compartment at 19 days of incubation. The light intensity was in the range of 1,340 to 1,730 lux at the surface of the eggs. GL incubation of eggs significantly (p<0.01) increased weight (expressed as an absolute value) and daily weight gain of embryos at 11 and continued to 15 days of age, hatchability per cent by 4.8%, reduced dead embryos per cent and chick weight at hatch by 37 and 2%, respectively and accelerated hatching time by about 24 h when compared with the D-control incubation. Chicks hatched at 504 h of incubation had significantly (p<0.01) higher body weight, expressed as an absolute value or as a percentage of egg weight, than those hatched earlier at 456 h of incubation. It was concluded that the GL incubation of meat breeder eggs reduced incubation period and chick weight at hatch and increased embryonic growth and hatchability per cent.
