The problem with intermetallics coating using the heat of molten casting is that the heat generated during combustion synthesis dissolves the coating and the substrate metal. This study investigates whether pre-annealing before synthesis can control the reaction heat, with the aim of Ni₃Al coating on the casting surface. Therefore, the effects of the annealing temperature and time on the combustion synthesis behavior of the powder compact of Ni-25at%Al after annealing were investigated. As results, the reaction heat when synthesized decreased as the annealing temperature was high and the annealing time was longer. This was attributed to the fact that Al was diffused to Ni particles during low temperature annealing and intermediate Ni-Al compounds were formed during high temperature annealing. After combustion synthesis, however, it was found that their microstructures were almost identical except for the amount of intermediate intermetallics. Furthermore, an annealing temperature above 450℃, at which intermediate compounds begin to form, is needed to prevent the dissolving problem during synthesizing. The intermetallics synthesized after annealing at higher temperature and prolonger annealing time showed a good wear resistance. This might be because much intermediate intermetallics of high hardness were remained in the microstructure.

The zinc oxide (ZnO) material as the II-VI compound semiconductor is useful in various fields of device applications such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs), solar cells and gas sensors due to its wide direct band gap of 3.37eV and high exciton binding energy of 60meV at room temperature. In this study, the ZnO nanorods were deposited onto homogenous buffer layer/Si(100) substrates by a hydrothermal synthesis. The Effects of the buffer layer annealing and post annealing temperature on the structural and optical properties of ZnO nanorods grown by a hydrothermal synthesis were investigated. For the buffer layer annealing case, the annealed buffer layer surface became rougher with increasing of annealing temperature up to $750^{\circ}C$, while it was smoothed with more increasing of annealing temperature due to the evaporation of buffer layer. It was found that the roughest surface of buffer layer improved the structural and optical properties of ZnO nanorods. For the post annealing case, the hydrothermally grown ZnO nanorods were annealed with various temperatures ranging from 450 to $900^{\circ}C$. Similarly in the buffer layer annealing case, the post annealing enhanced the properties of ZnO nanorods with increasing of annealing temperature up to $750^{\circ}C$. However, it was degraded with further increasing of annealing temperature due to the violent movement of atoms and evaporation. Finally, the buffer layer annealing and post annealing treatment could efficiently improve the properties of hydrothermally grown ZnO nanorods. The morphology and structural properties of ZnO nanorods grown by the hydrothermal synthesis were measured by atomic force microscopy (AFM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and x-ray diffraction (XRD). The optical properties were also analyzed by photoluminescence (PL) measurement.

This study examined the effects of the annealing heat treatments on the mechanical properties of the Invar(Fe-36%Ni Alloy) materials. Invar materials were annealed at various temperatures range 900~120$0^{\circ}C$ in vacuum(10-4Torr) and hydrogen atmospheres. And annealing conditions were changed by cooling rate and holding time at 110$0^{\circ}C$. The grain size of rolled Invar materials was very fine but those of annealed Invar materials at 900~120$0^{\circ}C$ in vacuum and hydrogen atmosphere increased with increasing annealing temperature. The micro-vickers hardness values of annealed Invar materials were decreased about 15% that of the rolled Invar materials, regardless of the various of annealing temperatures, atmosphere(vacuum, hydrogen) and annealing conditions. The tensile strength and yield strength of annealed Invar materials at 900~120$0^{\circ}C$ in vacuum and hydrogen atmosphere were decreased 10.0~14.4% and 34.6~39.1% those of the rolled Invar materials, respectively. The strength ratio(tensile strength/ yield strength) of annealed Invar materials was improved to 1.7~1.8 from the value of 1.2~1.3 of rolled Invar materials. The degree of spring back of annealed Invar materials was about 50% of the rolled Invar materials, regardless of the various of annealing temperatures, atmosphere(vacuum, hydrogen) and annealing conditions.

The effects of annealing on structural and electrical properties of ITO/PES (Indium Tin Oxide/Polyethersulfone) films was investigated. Amorphous ITO thin films were grown on plastic substrates, PES using low temperature DC magnetron sputtering. Various post annealing techniques were attempted to research variations of microstructure and electrical properties: i) conventional thermal annealing, ii) excimer laser annealing, iii) UV irradiation. The electrical properties were obtained using Hall effect measurements and DC 4-point resistance measurement. The microstructural features were characterized by FESEM, XRD, Raman spectroscopy in terms of morphology and crystallinity. Optimized UV treatment exhibits the enhanced conductivity and crystallinity, compared to those of conventional thermal annealing.

In MOS integrated circuits, annealing after oxidation process is necessary to improve physical properties of silicon dioxide. With subsequent annealing in inert gases such as nitrogen or argon, and excess silicon bond is allowed time to complete the oxidation and surface charge density is reduced. In this paper, we will present effects of the rapid thermal annealing on silicon dioxide. In order to evaluate characteristics of silicon dioxide, we analyzed C-V curve dependent on annealing time and temperature, and presented variation of fixed oxide charge.

The effects of annealing on the electrical and structural characteristics for the rf sputter deposited WO$_3$thin film. The sputtered thin films are annealed at 773K for 1 hour in air atmosphere. Oxygen flow rate were changed from 0 to 70% during sputtering. It is observed from the results of the AFM measurement that the average roughness for the rf sputter deposited WO$_3$thin film would be increased from 2.45 angstrom to 152 angstrom by annealing. The sheet resistance of the sputtered WO$_3$film is changed from insulting to MOhm after annealing. According to the results of the XRD, the as-deposited films revealed the amorphous state whereas the peaks of X-ray diffraction at 2 theta= 28 degrees and 2 theta = 25 degrees corresponding to the (111) and (200) plane of the WO$_3$film respectively are observed after annealing.

The effects of TCA incorporation during annealing process on the SIMOX quality is studied. Silicon wafers are implanted with heavy dose of oxygen ions, and are annealed at $1300^{\circ}C$ for 4 hours. The annealing process is splitted into three conditions due to some differences of low temperature preliminary annealing step which are without pre-annealing step. The specimens are analyzed by several methods, such as AES, XTEM, and TRXFA. TCA incorporation during pre-annealing step is effective in dislocation density reduction and heavy metal content reduction.
