YAG:Ce phosphor were prepared in a self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) using a $1.5Y_2O_3+2.5Al_2O_3+0.116CeO_2+3.0KClO_3+kCO(NH_2)_2+m(C_2F_4)_n$ precursor mixture. The heat for the combustion propagation was provided by the reaction of a $KClO_3+CO(NH_2)_2+(C_2F_4)n$ mixture. Pure-phase YAG phosphor was synthesized at the combustion temperature of $1210^{\circ}C$ from k=3.6 mole and m=0.3 mole. The as-prepared YAG:Ce phosphor had a particle size of $2-10{\mu}m$. The addition of Teflon to the precursor mixture increased the YAG particle size and its luminescent intensity. The emission peak of the YAG phosphor was blue-shifted with an increase of Teflon concentration.

YAG phosphor powders were fabricated by the atmospheric plasma spraying method with the spray-dried spherical YAG precursor. The YAG precursor slurry for the spray drying process was prepared by the PVA solution chemical processing utilizing a domestic easy-sintered aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) powder as a seed. The homogenous and viscous slurry resulted in dense granules, not hollow or porous particles. The synthesized phosphor powders demonstrated a stable YAG phase, and excellent fluorescence properties of approximately 115% compared with commercial YAG:Ce³⁺ powder. The microstructure of the phosphor powder had a perfect spherical shape and an average particle size of approx imately 30 ㎛. As a result of the PKG test of the YAG phosphor powder, the synthesized phosphor powders exhibited an outstanding luminous intensity, and a peak wavelength was observed at 531 nm.

For transdermal drug delivery, needless injection system is composed of laser and microjet injector. Main mechanism of microjet injector is the laser-induced bubble. Nd:YAG and Er:YAG laser are used as a power source. Laser parameters such as pulse duration and wavelength are considered, which are core parameters to control the bubble motion. The Nd:YAG laser, pulse duration is short than bubble life time making cavitation like bubble while in Er:YAG laser, long pulse duration and high absorption in water drive bubble as a boiling bubble. Detailed motion of bubble and microjet is captured by the high speed camera. So it is observed that microjet characteristics are determined by the bubble behavior. The performance of drug delivery system is evaluated by fluorescent staining of guinea pig skin.

Yttrium Aluminum Garnet (YAG) powders were prepared by precipitation of Y hydroxides during milling of alumina powders. The powder calcined at 1200$^{\circ}C$ for 4 h contained a small amount of Yttrium Aluminum Monoclinic (YAM) in addition to YAG. However, phase-pure YAG was obtained in the compact of the milled powder with an average particle size of 0.57 ${\mu}$m at 1300$^{\circ}C$, which is much lower than those (l500∼1600$^{\circ}C$) for a mixed oxide method. The powder was found to exhibit an excellent sinterability regardless of the addition of a sintering aid, SiO$_2$(350 ppm Si). The undoped sample were sintered to a relative density of 98% at l600$^{\circ}C$. In contrast, the addition of SiO$_2$ caused a considerable densification to occur at 1500$^{\circ}C$ and the relative density reached 97.7%. But the sintering aid had little effect on the densification at 1600$^{\circ}C$, showing a similar relative density to the undoped sample.

In this study, using solid-state and flux, $Y_3Al_5O_{12}:Er^{3+}\;(YAG:Er^{3+})$ powders were successfully synthesized at low temperatures. To analyze the crystallinity of powders according to the synthesis or non-synthesis of powders and powder calcination temperatures, X-ray diffraction (XRD) was measured. In the case of pure YAG, when YAG was analyzed using the general solid-phase method, it was calcined for 12 hours at $1400^{\circ}C$ and pure YAG phase could be obtained. But when $BaF_2$ was added to YAG, YAG was synthesized at lower temperature (1000^{\circ}C$). It was thus found that the synthesis temperature could be lowered by about $400^{\circ}C$. Also, when BaF2 with an optimal concentration was added to $YAG:Er^{3+}$, the particle shape and size according to synthesis temperatures were surveyed, and corresponding luminous intensity was discussed.

Yttrium aluminum garnet(YAG) powders were synthesized by spray-drying of the hydroxides coprecipitated from a mixture of aqueous solutions of $Al(NO_3)_3.9H_2O \;and\; Y(NO_3)_3.6H_2O$ Phase formation in the powders during heat treatments and their sintering charactristics were investigated. In the powder obtained by washing the hydroxides before spray-drying, a metastable yttrium aluminum hexagonal (YAH) phase was first crystallized and then transformed into YAG as temperature was increased. The formation of YAH was attributed to a deviation in compositions of the particles from the starting composition of YAG. However, the powder prepared without washing step contained a stable yttrium aluminum monoclinic(YAM) phase in addition to YAG due to a large deviation from the starting composition. A powder compact of a single phase YAG was pressureless-sintered for 4 hrs at $1700^{\circ}C$ and the density was 93% of the theoretical density.

Nd:YAG pulse laser welding of stainless steel plate was simulated to find welding condition by using commercial finite element code MARC. Due to geometric symmetry, a half model of AISI 304 stainless steel plate was considered and user subroutines were applied to boundary condition for the heat transfer. Material properties such as conductivity, specific heat, mass density and latent heat were given as a function of temperature. As results, Three dimensional heat source model for pulse laser beam conditions of butt welding has been designed by the comparison between the finite element analysis results and experimental data on AISI 304 stainless steel plate. Nd:YAG laser welding for AISI 304 stainless steel was successfully simulated and it should be useful to determine optimal welding condition.

Welding characteristics of austienite 304 stainless steel and SM45C using a continuous wave Nd:YAG laser are experimentally investigated. Laser beam welding is increasingly being used in welding of structural steels. The laser welding process is one of the most advanced manufacturing technologies owing to its high speed and deep penetration. This paper describes the weld ability of SM45C carbon steel and austienite 304 stainless steel for machine structural use by Nd:YAG laser.

Laser thin film process with a Q-switch pulsed YAG laser was performed for micro machining. In this research, we performed basic Cr thin film on glass substrates removal machining experiments. Form experiments, it happens not only evaporration of thin film but also spatter and cohesion of melting substance in working region, when machining a Cr thin film by Q-switch YAG laser beam irradiation. Critical energy of surface irradiation type by irradiation direction of laser in a face composing thin film on the glass is higher than that of back irradiation type, but the latter is favorable because of spatter appearance. In case of image formation position when laser beam is irradiated, the defocus is permitted to a certain extent within forcus depth. Ifexceeds focus depth, formation of pattern is vanishing step by step.
