The $TiO_2$ films were prepared in the $H_2SO_4$ solution containing $NH_4F$ at different anodic voltages, to compare the photocatalytic performances of titania for purification of waste water. The microstructure was characterized by a Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Chemical bonding states and co-doped elements of F and N were analyzed using surface X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The photocatalytic activity of the co-doped $TiO_2$ films was analyzed by the degradation of aniline blue solution. From the result of diffuse reflectance absorption spectroscopy(DRS), it is indicated that the absorption edge of the F-N-codoped $TiO_2$ films shifted toward visible light area, and the photocatalytic reaction of $TiO_2$ was improved by doping an appropriate contents of F and N.

Pretreatment process of silica-coated PET fabrics, a major low-grade PET waste, was developed using the reaction with NaOH solution. By destroying the structure of silica coating layer, impurities such as silica and pigment dyes could be removed. The removal of impurity was confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). The pretreated PET fabric samples were used for depolymerization into its monomer, bis(2-hydroxylethyl) terephthalate (BHET), by glycolysis with ethylene glycol (EG), and zinc acetate (ZnAc) catalyst. The quality of BHET was confirmed by DSC, TGA, HPLC and NMR analyses. The highest BHET yield of 89.23% was obtained from pretreated PET fabrics, while glycolysis with raw PET fabric yielded 85.43%. The BHET yield from untreated silica-coated PET fabrics was 60.39%. The pretreatment process enhances the monomer yield by the removal of impurity and also improves the quality of the monomer.

하이브리드 코팅 시스템을 이용하여 $CrMoC_xN_{1-x}$ 박막을 AISI D2와 실리콘 웨이퍼 모재 위에 증착하였다. 박막 내 탄소 함량은 $CH_4/(CH_4+N_2)$ 가스 유량 증가에 비례하여 증가했다. 탄소 함량이 0.33일 때 44GPa의 최대강도 및 -4.4GPa의 잔류응력을 나타내었다. CrMoN 박막의 평균 마찰계수는 0.42이지만, 탄소함량을 증가함에 따라 0.31까지 감소 하였다. 이것은 박막 표면과 스틸볼 사이에서 탄소가 풍부한 층이 형성되어 일종의 고체윤활제 역할을 했기때문이다. 박막의 미세조직은 X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscopy, 그리고 X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy를 이용하여 분석하였다.

The upper limit of solid solution of $Al_2O_3$ in $LiTaO_3$ was investigated using X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. By substituting cations in $LiTaO_3$ with $Al^{3+}$, the melting temperature was lowed and the ferroelectric properties can be improved. It is easier at lower temperature to fabricate the single crystal used for SAW filters and IR sensors. From the measured lattice constants and Raman band broadening, the solubility limit was X=0.25mol in $Li_{1-X}Al_{2X}Ta{1-X}O_3$, above which $Al_2O_3$ was obsered as a second phase. The Raman band of sintered $LiTaO_3$ was compared with that of the single crystal to see the effect of grain size on the band broadening.

Titanium carbide(TiC) films, known as having excellent characteristics of resistance to wear and corrosion, were deposited on SUS-304 sheets using HCD(Hollow Cathode Discharge) reactive ion plating with acetylene gas as the reactant gas. The characteristics of TiC films were examined by X-ray diffraction, micro-Vickers hardness tester, ${\alpha}$-step, SEM(Scanning Electron Spectroscopy), ESCA(Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis), and AES(Auger Electron Spectroscopy) and the results were discussed with regard to the changes of various deposition conditions(bias voltage, acetylene flow rate, temperature).

고효율 양자점 태양전지를 위하여 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막 내에 Si 양자점을 형성한 박막을 제작하고 그 특성을 분석하였다. $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막은 Si과 C target을 co-sputtering하여 증착하였다. C target의 RF power를 변화시켜 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막의 조성비를 조절하였으며, 조성비는 auger electron spectroscopy로 정량적으로 측정하였다. 이 박막들을 질소 분위기에서 후 열처리하여 high resolution transmittance electron microscopy로 확인한 결과 박막 내에 2~10nm 크기의 양자점이 형성된 것을 관측할 수 있었다. 이 양자점은 transmittance electron diffraction과 grazing incident X-ray diffraction을 통해 Si 양자점과 SiC 양자점이 형성되었음을 알 수 있었다. Raman 측정 결과에서는 후 열처리한 $Si_{1-x}C_x$ 박막의 조성비가 증가할 수록 crystal Si peak의 shift가 증가함을 알 수 있었고, 이를 통해 양자점의 크기도 함께 계산할 수 있었다. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy을 통해 후 열처리한 Si1-xCx 박막의 양자점의 형성 원인을 추정하였다.

The deposition of silicon nitride ($SiN_x$) thin films was carried out on $SiO_2/Si$ substrate at room temperature by reactive dc magnetron sputtering. The analysis of deposited $SiN_x$ films using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicated that the composition of $SiN_x$ films was Si-rich. The deposited $SiN_x$ thin films were annealed by varying annealing temperature and time. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was performed in order to examine the crystallization of Si in $SiN_x$ thin films. The optical and electrical properties of $SiN_x$ thin films were measured for the observation of Si nanodot. As a result, we observed the XRD peaks that might be the Si crystals. As the annealing time and annealing temperature increased, the photoluminescence intensity of $SiN_x$ films gradually increased. The capacitance-voltage characteristics of $SiN_x$ film measured before and after annealing indicated that the trap effect of electrons or holes occurred due to the existence Si nanodots in the $SiN_x$ thin films.
